OLD ENGLAND's
MERRY MONARCH.
DIFFERENT FROM 9TH.
Err SOvEREIGNS.
KING EDWARD VII SHOWS HOW
TO BE HAPPY, THOUGH
A KING.

Edward VII OF England is the
merry monarch of Europe No other
man living today knows better than
he how to be happy though reign
ing.
Now this is to his credit, since
crowned heads are not as a rule the
most cheerful folk to be met with In
a days journey. The young and old
rulers alike. from Alfonso OF Spain
to Francis Joseph of Austria, are
so busy lodging Anarchists and liv-
ing up to their duties that they have
no time, and, worse still. no courage,
TO enjoy themselves; but King Ed
ward is Altogether different from his
brother sovereigns.
He does not have to dodge Anar-
chists and he refuses to allow the
responsibilities of kingship to sour
the milk OF human kindness within
him. "Contentment, like charity,
must begin at home" and "The first
duty of a ruler is to Be popular" are
some of the simple but genial max
inns by which the head of the British
empire lives, with results that I'LL
his German nephew with mingled
disgust and envy and the English
nation with satisfaction.
His subjects like him for number
less reasons. and for none more than
that since the days of Queen Eliza
beth they have never had a more in
defatigably sociable monarch. Unlike
his mother, King Edward is not over
fond of stopping at home and like
Queen Elizabeth, he loves to visit
with his subjects.
Only strict sense of duty and
etiquette ever persuades the most
friendly ruler in Europe to stop for
any length OF time under his own
royal rooftree, and having both an
inclination and a real talent for visit
ing he gratifies himself by spending
at least eight months of every year

scarf, hiding all Of the Drown save its top.
This scarf is tied in a big soft bow in the
back, the loops and ends falling low over
the brim and hair.
Similar scarf trimming is used upon
chic outing hats Of Panama or bamboo
straw whose brims turn up sauoily in front
and droop low in the back. Canvas scarfs
in charming o~olorings are also much used
for trimming severe outing hats and
tailored hats. .
The upturned brim in front is one Of the
seasons novelties and in many of the wide
brimmed hats only the edge Of the brim In
front turns hack. The sketch Of a large
black erin hat trimmed in black velvet
ribbon and huge white egrets will illustrate
what we mean by this description. The
style is sometimes trying, sometimes i'm
mensely becoming and in any event 1t
demands the services OF q very high bandeau
around the front Of the hat.
The wings used by the milliners are only.
a shade less lovely than the wonderful
ostrich plumes OF enormous length and
exquisite shading. Twenty-Five dollars a
pair Ia asked for some Of the handsome
big wings in beautiful color combinations

such wings and worn far enough pack Oh

the most successful models Of the season.

There are weird feathers galore this
spring and once more we see big, broad
brimmed hats whose crowns are quite
hidden under a swirling mass Of fine osprey
like feathers which wave wildly in the
highest breeze. There are lovely models,
too, whose own are entirely covered with
ostrich feathers laid fatty and forming the
~softest, fufiest crown ina insble.
Sometimes supplementary plumes are
added 10 the trimmings. set under the briu
or dropping low over the sides Of the brim.
but some OF the p~rettiest models show no
ostrich feathers save in the soft mAsa of
the crown ribbon or veilings being used
under the brim at the back. A beautiful
French hat OF this type had a Eeapolitan
brim Of palest lavender. an ostrich feather
oFown whose feathers shaded from dark
lavender next the stem TO light at the tips
and at the side and underneath tho mush-
room brim at the back, big bows OF pale

hats Of mAlines, lace. Noapolitan or Leghorn

QuEREc, May 11.-Cats are doing great

the bordering States.

We have selected for our sketches this
week a number Of the more extreme French
models. but while deliberately choosing the
radical shapes. we confined our choice TO
models which while they might be trying
had really beauty Of their own. The group
Of mushroom models In the central cut, for
example. represents the work Of some OF
the most famous milliners Of Paris and
every hat had charm and cachet.
