The weather of the past week has
been such as to lead US to believe we had
been summarily yanked out of the grip
of winter and landed squarely in the lap
of summer. The sensation has not been
a disagreeable one, Notwithstanding its
extreme suddenness, but it's somewhat
OF botheration to know whether its
going to last, and what effect on the fruit
crop is going to be. With the thermom-
eter raging along in the sos the buds on
many of the softor trees have swollen
greatly, while some have actually burst
their bounds and timely leaves have
formed. So there's liable to be trouble
when jack frost gets in his work later on.
But let's not worry till we reach the
bridge--it may carry us oyer safely.

day. This was done, and word came
back that evidences Of rabies had been
and Mr.. and Mrs. Steele left
Immediately for Pittsburg, where she
has been receiving the Pasteur treatment

Paris is showing hat on the toque
order, which is known as the airship,
writes Grace Margaret Gould in Woman's
Home Companion for April. This hat
takes its name from its likeness in shape

braid, and will be one of the seasons

also be worn all through spring and sum-
mer, A very fashionable sailor is rather

side and at the back than on the other.
In regard to straws, leghorn not only in
