Millinery vIoIets.

The violets that are worn this win
ter do not resemble the sweet-scented
little purple flower Of the woods. In
outline they are the same, but there
the likeness ends. Our newest millin-
cry violets are very large, very dark,
and in color very unnatural. At a 1T
tie distance they look rather like
pansies. but undoubtedly they are ef-
fective For felt hats 1t is considered
necessary to mix silk and velvet flow
ers, the touch OF velvet being some
times introduced on the leaves also.
Another favorite trimming for the
cloohe hat is an enormous ruche Of
soft silk, showing frlnged edges. The
silk must be Of the best quality, other
wise when the edges are fringed out
they will not sit up properly, and 1t
must be admitted that ruches OF this
kind run away with great deal of
silk.

In this case advantage is taken OF the
low space under the roof near the

sufficient head room to get inside at

veracious chroniclers.

An Albanian who has Just returned
from the east, where freshets have
been the rule. tells the following about
a horse which had been attached to
a foot bridge crossing a brook, to
keep the structure from going adrift.
The food finally swept horse and
bridge down stream. Later, the
bridge was discovered lodged against
the bank, with the horse sitting quiet
~ on the former.
A bystander who had listened IN
tently to this tale, remarked quietly:

story teller.
