TINE spring hat of 1905 is serious
matter, for never We're there so
many picturesque and extraordi-
nary shapes exhibited. Feathers that
never grew on any known bird, flowers
that were never seen in any garden,
Colors and materials that were never
before attempted in combination, grace
marvellous structures that resemble no
known headgear.
Just how the hat is to be worn is
impossible to determine at first glance.
Last season the brim projected in front
and was cut off at the back, but this
is this year reversed, and hard, un-
yielding brim standing straight out
from the head at the back is favorite
model. A model with brim bent down
over the right ear and then faring
high above the left is one shape that
is extremely popular.
With the minute hats of fine straw
with so small crown that they rest
lightly upon the very top of the head,
and with the brim turned up at the
sides and back, even though there may
be flowers or soft feathers galore, there
is apt to be vacant space between the
head and the hat. This space Dame
Fashion has decreed must needs pe
filled in with the hair arranged in loose,
soft waves, with occasional little curls
peeping out in most coquettish fashion.
These curls, as may be imagined must
be attached to the hat rather than to
the head. The curliest hair that ever
grew on human head could never fol-
low the lines of the fashionable hat to
any satisfaction. Small wonder is it
then that the hat of the moment is an
expensive article. for to match ones
hair is never cheap or an easy
process, and then, too, the shade of
the hair and the colors on the hat
must have something in common.
Flowers massed together in old fash
ioned bouquet style are one of the fads
of the moment, and combining differen
kinds of flowers in the same bouquet
is another fad. White camelias, pink
roses, violets and heliotrope, or some
strange blue flower mame unknown in
botany are all arranged in masses at
the back or sides while pale blue iris,
pink rose and a strange green bios
som adorn "a shape that has absolutely
no crown, and the brim of which It
the back stands out from the hat in
almost startlingly aggressive lines
An all black hat is hard to find in
these days, Both rough and smooth
straw are trimmed with colored velvet |
ribbon, or have colored flowers or
feathers. Purple and black are fav-
orite combination, while the different
shades of blue that are made up with |
black are apparently endless in num- |
ber. The new bright blue so ia ashion-
able this season is certainly effective |
with black, and as a rule is becoming, |
and the twist of blue velvet ribbon |
the same shade seems to soften the |
hard lines that a black hat so often |
has.
Cocks feathers are much in evidence
both the shaded green and the glossy
black, in plumes falling over the brim
or arranged fiat and stiff against high |
brim. Combining an owrs head with |
cocks feathers or with a stiff wing
dhat surely never grew on any OVID |
Is another favorite trimming that is
seen on many of the new turbans this
season, and bright red bright blue and |
white are favorite colors.
Hats made OF erin are often more
graceful than those made OF straw. and

there are some charming shapes in
ivory white, pale blue. pale pink and
mauve that look almost like lace or
maline, so transparent and fine are
they A wide brmmed blue erin hat,
with medium sized crown, is trimmed
with punches of pale blue tips and two
pale pink ones so gracefully arranged
as to almost cover. the brim and at
the same time preserve the outlines of
the shape. AS rule on these erin hats
flowers and feathers are not combined,
but this season no rule is so strict
that it cannot be broken, and certainly
a pale pink or'yelow rose nestled
among the feathers or tucked in under
the brim is dainty and becoming ad-
dition to the effect of the hat.
The arrangement of the three ostrich
tips almost like the Prince of Wales
feathers against the side of an up
turned brim gives a most picturesque
effect to the hat. If the line is too
long the hat will not be becoming, so
that great care must be taken when
choosing the hat to study 1t from the
side as well as from the front and
back. Just an inch difference in the
line will make the hat becoming or the
contrary, so that, as has been said be-
fore, the spring hat is a most serious
matter-one that requires anxious care
and thought.
Colored hats reign supreme certainly
for the present moment, with pale
shades in the lead. Surely never were
there so many different shades of pur-
pie set before the public, while blue,
pink and green follow closely in num-
bers. A pale mauve straw, recalling
the old-fashioned English walking hat
in it's shape, is faVorite model.
Around the crown is a fold of velvet
of a much darker tone of the same
color. Where the brim is turned up
at the left side are masses of volets
in their different shades of color, and
under the brim at the back of the hat
are three roses, deep crimson, pink
and the palest rose. On the same
lines is a hat Of the new blue straw,
with blue violets and yellow roses.

religious political and industrial de-
velopment of Ireland and expressed
complete sympathy with the Irish ma

land because he added, that is the
national religion in Ireland and it is
the national party The Pope also
said that the national party's efforts
to achieve liberty for Ireland and also
full civil and religious rights for the
Irish people by lawful and peaceful
means would have his sympathy and
blessing The Pontiff presented Mr..
Redmond with a portrait of himself
bearing the following autograph in
scription: To our beloved son Red
mond, leader of the Irish party in the
House of Commons, with the wish that

colleagues, using all legal and pacific
means, may win that liberty which

IRELAND A NATION.

Toronto, May y, 1905.
Editor Irish World:
Would you mind answering me,
through the columns of your valuable
paper, a question which is causing
many heated arguments in this city
this Belfast of Canada. The question
is. Is Ireland nation? If not. when
did she cease to be one? There have
been a few debates on the questions,
but SO far as 1 can ascertain they have
not satisfied every one here by their
verdict. Hoping you will find space for
this question in your paper, which will
be anXiously awaited, | am, yours truly,
b P. LEHANE.
A nation is an aggregation of people
of common origin. traditions and Ian
guage. These characteristics apply to
the people of Ireland. When Rome con-
crate the nationality of Greece Its peo-
pie were still Greeks. The conquest Of
England by the Normans did not make
Normans of the English, nor has Eng
fish rule made Englishment of Irish
men. The English, while slaves of the
Normans, were not permitted to learn
French. They were deemed too low to
be permitted to express themselves in
the polite language of France. It would
have been good thing for Ireland had
England acted In like manner by the
Irish. Our people have done more to
spread the English language over the
world than the English themselves.
Language is a note of nationality Our
people are now waking up to their mis-
take, and seem bound to have their own

oegTTlNe RID OF THE BLUES"

Half the time people say they have
the blues all they need is to go out
and get a breath of fresh air. People
who have blues stay in houses too
much. they do not exercise enough, and
they eat too much. The body is clogged
with surplus of food. the lungs are
vitiated with bad air, and the whole
machinery of the body is working at
low gauge. The motor wheels OF the
machinery drag and run heavy.
This physical condition is reflected
upon the mental faculties, and they
become torpid and sluggish and every
thing takes on a depressed blue" look.
All the little worries, troubles and per-
plexities are magnified, and the world
seems a. dismal, desolate place indeed
and the poor blue person is enveloped
in fog of misery and despair. He
thinks the whole world is topsy-turVy
and all the elements are combining to

And vet all the while this whole
worldful of misery is ceotered right

shining. the birds are singing, the
grass is growing, the skies are radi-

with a roseate hue. People everywhere
are going to and fro about their af-
fairs with sympathy in their hearts
and kindness in their eyes. The
world is running over with jog. and
the people in it are not as bad as they
seem.

one-fourth their weight in sugar and
one cupful of water to each quart of
cherries. Cook them twenty minutes

For picking cherries try this one:

pint of vinegar to every seven pounds
of cherries. Boil the sugar and vine

CHARACTER BUILDING.

Beautiful thoughts make beautiful
lives
For every word and deed
Lies i'm the thought that prompted it,
AS the flowers lie in the seed.
Back of each action lay the thought
We nourished until it grew
Into a word or into deed,
That marked our life-work through.
Gracious words and kindly ways,
Deeds that are high and true;
Slandrous words. and hasty words,
And deeds we bitterly rue.
The Garden of Life it beareth well.
Ii will repay our care,
But the blossom must always and ever
Like the seed we're planting there
Keep thine heart" the Life Guide
saith,
With daily. diligent care,
For out of it are the issues of life
Be they foul or be they fair.
On things that are pure and of good
report
Our hearts must daily dwell,
If we would see Life's garden full
Of blossoms that please US well.
For beautiful thoughts make beautiful
lives,
And every word and deed
Lies in the thought that prompted it,
AS the flower lies in the seed.

EXAMPLE.

To have your child truthful, be
truthful.
To have him temperate, be temper
ate, in all things.
To have him kind to others, be your
self kind to others.
Prescribe beautiful amusements and
SO far as you can take part in them.
Prove to him by your life that a good
name is to be chosen before great
riches.
Teach him that riches are not to be
despised, but should never be got by
doing harm to others; that. when &C
quired, should be treated as a trust,
not as a hoard.
To have him. honest. present to him

THE BEST PART OF LIFE.

Fom so to 70 ought to be the best
part of a mans life. Aver 80 he is
capable of more mental work, and
sometimes even of more physical
work than before. His judgments are
truer. his experience had taught him a
great many things he can never learn
in college, and if he is wise enough to
conduct himself safely beyond the pc
riCd of prostratic. irritation, the best
part of his life is before him. Every
thing conspires to make a man more
useful. and happy, and contented.
Freed from the tortures of ambition,
and the screenings of lust and greed.
the years between the ages of 80 and 10
are the golden days Of his whole life.

Where lilies blossomed white and red.
While Duty with relentless mien
Pressed on narrow, cheerless way,
And i'm his steps, with faltering feet.

And life for me was STEPPED in pain
And loneliness of heart was mine,

an edition without date was printed at

probably that printed at Lyons is the
rarest of all, though the library Of the
