you will be surprised to hear that It's success was immediate. Among her pupils were several prospective brides who foresaw that their husbands would not be able to stand for millinery bills of the same size of those they had in flicted on their loving fathers. Being wise girls, they determined to have the same number of hats if possible and joined the class.
 Before the end of the season the making of hair ornaments, fancy muffs and fancy collarettes was added to the curriculum, and the wardrobes of the pupils blossomed forth like flower beds in the springtime
 And herein, by the way, is hint for the girl who is forced to be economical. Let her make fancy stoles and muffs for evening wear since she may not indulge in the costly ermine. Very pretty effects can be gained from a combination of white panne velvet, pointed tabs and ruffles of cream chif- ion, while in pale pink and pale law ender the effect is even prettier.

Pres. TuttIe, B. & NJ,
Writes to Bath People.
By No Means Settled That Ken
nebec Is to Be Bridged.
Investigation Being Made TO See What
Needs of Road Demands.

Bath, Ne, Dec. 10-For some time it
has been reported that the Maine Cen
trail Railroad intended to improve its
present service between Portland and
with the present system of fcrryng
trains across the kennebec river be-
tween this city and Woolwich.
During the latter part of the sum
mer surveys We're made several miles
above this city for the reported pur
pose of building a bridge and to have
the Rockland branch leave the main
line of the railroad between BoWdoin-
ham and Richmond, and then build a
spur over to WiscaSSct and there con-
meet with the Rockland line.
BY such means all through trains
would be cut of from this city and the
business interests believed this would
bt d severe blow to Bath. For this rca-
son Mayor Crosby called i citizens
meeting to see what could be done to
| prevent sucii Il move on the part of the
| railroad company. \ committee was
elected 10 confer with the railroad ohi-
,
the committee made public a l"tter
sent to them by Pres. Lucius Tuttlc. 1t
is as follows:
Il am in receipt of your communica-
ton of Nov. is, suggesting a time and
place for conference relative to the
Maine Central Railroad 90. bridging
the Kenncbec river.
Il desire to say that all that the rail,
road is doing at the present time is
surveying for the purpose of getting
full and complete information as to the
possibilities of providing better rail
| road service between its main line and
its Rockland branch. Nothing beyond
the requirement of this necessary in
formation will be done toward chang
ing the comrany's railroad facilities in
Bath without the citizens of that place
having the fullest opportunity to know
what the company'S plans are and to
discuss them in the fullest and most
open way before any material change
from present conditions is attempted
Il do net think it will be worth while
for your committee to spend any time
in an interview with me concerning this
subject, for the present al least, but
if you wish to know more in detail as
to the matters that We are having
looked un. Vice Pres. Evans can tell
YOU all about it whenever you desire
to see him at Portland, or perhaps at
Bath.
In SO far as my personal knowledge
OF the situation goes. have no idea that
cur company will attempt to build a
bridge. or to defect its lines from their
present location in the city of Bath.
but it has seemed to me wise that we
should get all possible information con-
cerning the matter before we begin
large otherwise necessary permanent
expenditures for improving the com
ranys ferry facilities between Bath
and WoOlWich."
