It is curious, too. that this Spring

fects which Dame Fashion is 50 fond
OF producing, and a hat composed of
plated fold Of crepe de chine In two
shades Of green and trimmed with a
soft white ostrich feather caught with
an enamelled buckle is one of the
smartest and most becoming of the new
styles. 'Herodiade" and "Tosca" are
the high-soundlnE names with which
the new olive greens have been chris
tened, and another proof that people
are disposed TO call a spade by any
other name than a spade is proved by
the fact that the simple reseda green
has been labelled ''midinette."
It is extraordinary how many degrees
there are In the same color nowadays,

they have all to be distinguished by n
separate name, as to class them as
green, red or blue is certainly not def

Etons in Everything

There is craze for the eton effect In
the new cotton, as wen as woollen
gowns Usually they are short enough
to show pun of the blouse above the
high girdle and the sleeves are short
enough to let the blouse partly act as an
under sleeve.
A very pretty rose dimity shows the
newest circular eton over a blouse Of
Irish lace, and elbow sleeves reveal the
fullest of Irish lace undersleeves with
embroidered medalliOns OF the rose
dimity fagOtted on the lace. and. OF
course embroidery and French knots
appear in a simple pattern on the
blouse. The shirt, with a circular
h0unce, has two fOOt-Wfde bands OF
very heavy real Irish point, put together
with tucked dimity.
The petticoat for this frCck-and petit
coats are study this spring-is Of white
lawn and coarse lace, with a very fun

Although nearly all the wash dresses
are made unlined, they are often worn
with silk petticoats quite fancifui
enough for a dance But wash skirts
are far more sensible, especially those
trimmed with the fashionable heavy
lace which does not faIter and faint in
the laundry.
Street morning wash frocks are often
made after the conventional fashion Of

Wichita, Kan. April 12.-ApriI 2T
and %, 1904. is the date that the
Threshers' association of Wichita has
set to entertain the threshermen of
Kansas and Oklahoma.
The greatest convention of thresh-
ermen ever held is expected to meet
III this city on the above dates A
similar event took place in Wichita
last year. 1t was in the way of an
experiment, and proved to be what
would be termed a bowling success.
The parade will be something won
derfuL There will be a string of
threshing outfits, consisting of en-
gines and separators, extending for a
mile and a half.
The entire programme for the two
days and nights will be much more
elaborate than last year. The asso-
citation is working hard and no pains
will he spared to entertain their
guests in a royal manner. Wichita
has the best reputation of any city in
the west for entertaining big crowds,
and this will be no exception
Several of the large manufacturers
in the east have already signified their
intention of being present, and a large
pumber Of them will be on the ground
at the time of meeting.
