THE EASTER BONNET

Wnlle mere man may De worrying
himself into a nervous state over the
presidents conference with the rail-
road magnates, the preliminaries Of
the base ball season or the price of
stocks on Wall street, feminine inter
est the country over is centered on
more pleasing. II not less expensive,
problem. Fashion has made her an
nual speech from the throne and the
Easter bonnet is the object of every
woman's waking thoughts and the
subject of her dreams. The Milliners'
National association has concluded It's
deliberations and announced that the
world is scheduled to witness the most
glorious Easter bonnets this year
ever conceived. They will not be
mere jumbles of lace and straw and
ribbons and flowers this year-not by
any means. The woman who is una
BILE or unwilling to afford Creation"
| for the adornment of her browning
glory this Easter will be poor indeed
and be made to feel her poverty.
Just to serve as a notice and warn
ing to man, the milliners' association
has disseminated the information that
hats are going to be more or less ex-
pensive this year" The keeper of
the family purse has no recollection
especially cheap and rather hoped that
the law offered in Missouri's' legisla-
ture fixing a woman's limit at two
$1.9S hats a year would be passed and
become general. But the bill died an
ignominious death and man can only
ponder and estimate the financial
value of the more or less expensive"
clause in the milliners' proclamation.
He is getting a little light gradually
as he learns that the 81 AFFAIR, which
he thought rather stunning last year,
has been marked up to S10.4S and
that Creation" of last spring put out
as feeler at $40 is out on the bargain
counter now 1t $35, while the real
thing is kept in a glass case and
tagged at from $40 to $50. BY coach
ing at home and by observation the
head of the family learns, too, that it
is almost profane to compare one Of
the beauties of bulk and brilliancy
with sordid money. If he has any de-
sire for peace he will merely express
his opinion on the artistic effect and
never think of the price until the bill
is rendered.
AS a reason for the increased cost
of Easter bonnets there is a great
scarcity of silk. maline and chiffon,
and the women insist that because
they cannot get these materials they
must have more of them. No woman
who does not want to look like a
trump" will take second squirt at a
hat with less than eighteen or twenty
yards of chiffon and all the maline the
traffic will bear. A hat is simple
when it has less than 500 separate
sprays Of forget-me-nots. while a real
rainbow creation is made up of Co
penhagen blue. Alice blue. Congo
brown. American Beauty, champagne,
four shades of green and three shades
of roses.",
All this data is being furnished by
the press agents of the milliners' asso-
citation for the purpose of breaking
the news gently to father.

ter cooperation among charitable or
CARNATIONS and prevent the waste that
now attends misguided charity and
systemless aiding the poor. Any part
of the appropriation employed for this
purpose will be money well expended
and will result in the accomplishment
Of good. One of the great needs in
charitable work in this country today
is education in the art and method Of
helping, the adoption OF some system
which will prevent liberal-hearted men
from gorging the needy at Christmas
and Thanksgiving and allowing them
to starve the rest of the year.
An intelligent use Of the Sage Foun-
dalton funds will undoubtedly disclose
many causes OF social distress that
may be removed or cured. Practically
there is no limit to what may be &C
complished by a campaign of inquiry
and education in reforms in the mode
of living of the poor. Tenement
house evils, the checking of infant
mortality, sanitation in the homes,
hospital accommodations for the poor,
the care and support of helpless old
age, furnish a field for this splendid
contribution in a noble cause in which
humanity for its own salvation must
continue to fight. In this fold the
fund may be used to aid those unable
to help themselves--the provisions for
such relief being now hopelessly mad
equate in every large city.
