series.
An early Easter, with a preliminary
hot wave to wake people up to the fact
that the warm season will not be long
deferred has helped to arouse even the
woman most given to procrastination.
Clothes that seemed all right only a fort
night since assume a shabby aspect and
feel uncomfortably heavy when the
warm spring sun gets in its work.
The new models differ from those we
are all familiar with, only in details. The
most obvious change is in sleeves
Kimona sleeves cut in one piece with the
body of the coat or waist, or those that
give this effect are very much to the fore,
For very dressy toilets American
women wear the French model skirts
without any modification, but for gener-
al wear, notwithstanding the edict of the
fashionable dressmakers, the best gown
ed women one sees going about on foot
here wear a decidedly short skirt and
the prettiest and trimmest possible foot
wear.
The warmer days bring out low shoes
ingreat numbers, and tanis as popular in
these as in boots. The pumps of last
season reappear with bows of matching
leather to replace the former cravat bow.
Ties of ribbon are still used, the ribbon
wide and soft as last year, but the kid
bows lead Black vanished leather is
as ever most used for a dressy walking
shoe, and the models are much the same
as those described for tan footwear.
White kid uppers are liked on both tan
and black Shoes 5and are used even on
the low Newport and Oxford models.
What is known as collar" OF con-
trasting color in kid is often used about
the top of the low shoe, and the effect is
extremely fanciful, rather too much Sc

Natter blue satin ribbon the only other
trimming was two black ostrich plumes
starting from these rosettes then going
back on the hat and falling low over the
couture. Bandeaux are still in use to
make the hat fit we'll on the head but
not to tilt it at any great angle. Rather
coarse straws in narrow braids are
much worn, especially in the new blues
and the various olives and yellows that
go with the new dress materials. Brown
as a trimming color is used in millinery
as in everything else but not as much as
was indicated by advanced advices. In
hats one sees perhaps more brown trim
mings than brown straws used and
always these are employed with gradu-
atoms of shades that are made up with
great deal of yellow.

Improvements on the B. & M.

Earnest efforts are being made by the
Boston and Maine railroad to overcome
the freight traffic congestion and to keep
up the efficiency of the passenger service,
and to this end the road is ordering a
great number of cars and locomotives.
1t is about to begin double-tracking
some SO miles of roadbed. This new
trackage will mostly serve as connecting
links between dead-end double trackage
already existing, and therefore will
greatly facilitate both passenger and
freight movements along the entire line.
All of the new trackage will be S5-pound
rails. Already the road has begun to
receive some of the 80, 900 tons of SO and
75-pound rails, and they will be laid as
fast as possible, the S5-pound section to
be used on the Boston division.
Since August last the Boston and
Maine has ordered 1000 cars, mostly for
freight; so locomotives, two up-to-date
steam shovels and a ditching machine.
For the cars the road will pay $5,607,-
QUO and for the locomotives SLY 800.
Besides these the road has built 80 cars
in its own shops and has considerable
number under way at the present time.
The contracts for installing the signals
on the eastern, western, southern, Fitch
burg, Worcester, Nashua and Portland
and Connecticut and Passumpsic divi-
sions call for the expenditure Of $685.
29O. The 10000 tons of rails will cost
$40 Is Der ton or "A total Of 1907 500
and the road has an option on 10000
tons more OF rails at the same price. For
aiding in the work of relaying and bal
lasting the old roadbeds and the new
ones, 100 Rogers ballast cars of the
most approved type have just been
received.
