Customs for Widows.

For the first month of her mourn
ing widow is expected to live in
strict seclusion. seeing only members
of her family. She must not enter So
cial life for two years, but may call
upon her most intimate friends, infor-
mally, after the first year. The third
year she may entertain her friends
and go to places of amusement. says
the Philadelphia Bulletin.
While widow should adhere to
certain recognized customs. she may
properly refuse to be a slave to the
numerous idiosyncracies which fash
ion imposes without fear Of severe
criticism. Many sensible people just
ly claim that customs are absurdly
overdone. Needless seclusion and de-
pressing attire only intensity the be-
reavement. The living owe 1t to-
themselves, their families and the
world at large to be as cheerful as cir
cumstances will permit. The tender
est reverence for the dead. respect
and loving remembrance can be shown
In a thousand delicate ways which
are not compatible with vulgar dis
play.

Fashion Notes,

Taffeta gowns are the smartest Of
the season.
Fine chip is used for modish little
walking hats.
Serge occupies a very small place
this year.
Leaf green is a good color for the
linen or pongee gown.
Shaped girdles of the dress fabrics
are used as frequently as silk or vel
vet.
Bands of quaint puffings are among
the old-fashioned trimmings again in
favor.
More than one of the winters long
tailed coats has been abbreviated into
a !aunty spring Jacket.
More and more short skirts are
turned out. but they are, trimmed on
much the same lines as the more elab-
crate long ones.
Foulards adapt themselves beauti.
fully to the vogue of full skirts, enor-
nous sleeves and lace-trimmed and be-
ruflled bodices.,
Dazzling and beautiful. but very i'm
practicable for anything but glass
case, is the average woman's comment
on the opening" gowns.
Ecru lace stoles will be used with
the lace hats of the same color. The
fashionable green shades can form an
effective trimming in the form of
either foliage or ribbon.
White marabou feathers are soft
and graceful on the long stoles. One
of these is fashioned of accordion.
pleated frills of white chiffon. Each
frill is about six inches in depth, and
is finished by fringe of marabou
feathers.
Black lace stoles will be effective
especially for use with the thin sum
mer gowns. They will accord with
the baby hats Of shirred black lace
which promise to be SO fashionable
These latter will be simply trimmed
with flower wreath or q ribbon 70
sette. The same method OF adorn
ment may obtain with the stole.

wedding Gowns.

White satin is no longer inevitable
for a bridal gown, but 1t has been ex-
changed for even loveller materials,
foamy chiffon, silvered gauze, or soft
est silk muslin and lace. Wells of the
latter have been superseded by tuIle,
while even that favored flower of
many generations. the orange blossom,

heather Is looked upon as wonder
fully lucky flower. but like the four

Its good fortune. Now 1t is said to be
cunningly bleached in order that the

some cases with real lace. The same

Man Versus Woman,

The old question of the relative
status of the sexes Is discussed by
William X. Hill in the Westminster
Reviews. Mr. Hills article opens
with the question. do the achieve.
ments of woman now equal those of
mani" In answering the question he
considers the leading characteristics
Of reason. imagination, creative sta
bility, truth. strength and endurance.
Reason is equally the characteristic of
both sexes, but its derivatives, reason
ableness and reasoning are said to be
more strongly marked in man than in
woman. Man usually thinks before
he acts. Woman is inclined to act
often before she thinks. In the mat
ter of Imagination, as manifested OBJ
jectively in its works. the only form
in which We can estimate it. woman
cannot at present set anything against
such male achievements as the Iliad,
the Divina Commedia. Hamlet. Faust,
the Venus of Milo, Tannhauser, or the
Choral symphony, to cite only few
leading examples. In the closely al
lied quality of initiative the weakness
OF woman is loudly asserted by man,
and it is difficult to cite any consider
able number OF women who have ini-
tiated and shaped with creative touch
great works or great movements.
The superiority Of woman is cor.
ceded in the qualities of courage. NOR
al stability, mental endurance and
truth, but the alleged supremacy of
the sex. in physical strength and en-
durance is denied.

LUcfuS QUINN TAKES HIS OWN LIFE:
SAD SEQUEL TO A mis-. SPENT LIFE

Stark, Fla. April 10 "A Young
man by the name of Lucius
Quinn com mitted suicide this
morning at l O'Clock at the board
ing house of Mrs. Moore, by
shooting himself in the right
temple. Death must have been
almost instantaneous from the
nature of the wound. No reason
is yet known here as to the
cause. Mr.. Quinn had been do
ing some insurance work and
did not show any signs of des-
pondency last evening.
He left an unsealed letter ad-
dressed to his mother at Fitzger-
aid, Ga, saving, These words
are hard, but I am lost. Nav
God bless you all. Try and
raise Willis right. I am gone
forever. Your devoted son.
Lucius."
On another slip was written,
Bye, Bve; 1 love you to the last.
Lucius."
"On his trunk was found his
money and the picture of
young girl.
Judge Gardner viewed the
remains and decided an inquest
unnecessary. The body was
turned over to the undertaken
and his father and mother were
wired as to what disposition to
make of it,"
The above records the sequel
to brief but mis-spent career
Lucius Quinn came to Fitzger-
aid handsome and bright youth,
and he started in with good peo-
pie. He became identified with
the Baptist Sunday School, and
was made it's secretary, and had
the respect of our best peo-
pie, but he drifted away, and fell
into the hands of the devils own.
He visited the saloons and gained
admission to the gambling hells.
His associates were often the
toughest characters.
Finally, one morning about six
months ago, he woke up in the
city prison, with most serious
charge against him. He was
probably guilty, but a lenient
court and eloquent defense ac-
quilted him.
At that time the Enterprise
expressed the hope that he would
yet become useful citizen, but,
as the last few lines he wrote his
mother indicate, his life had been
a great mistake; he was lost; he
had started for hell in Fitzger-
aid s saloons and gam bling hells,
and he made short work of it.
The Enterprise joins the dead
boy in the hope that his younger
brother may be kept from the
blighting influences that wrecked
his life.
