What She Would Get.
From Tt-Bits

Prom T1t-Bits.
Some weeks ago the wife OF Judge
Blank. OF Pacific avenue, lost her cook.
and since she had no other resource. she
rolled up her sleeves and for q week pro-
vided such meals as the Judge had not
enjoyed since those happy days when the
Blanks did not keep a cook. The judges
delight was so great that by way Of ap-
preciatlve acknowledgment he presented
Mrs. Blank with a beautiful ermine cloak.
Quite naturally, the incident was a good
deal noised about among the social ac-
quaintances Of the Blanks, and a spirit OF
envious emulation was developed in GER
tain quarters. II was in this mood that
Mrs. j. recited the story TO her hus-
band
What do I get. Jerry?" she asked, '1f

WHIMS IN MILLINERY

One Of the very latest fads is the
wreath Of sparrows. which. IN submis-
sion to millinery magic. has renounced
the somber brown Of its plumage. and
now wears brilliant hues that might do
honor to a cockatoo. Another novelty
even more striking is that Of introducing
among the feathery grasses Of the new
hats sprigs upon which are poised SHIN
mering little humnling birds.
The traditional languor OF the ostrich
plume has this year been reformed into a
sprightly erectness. In order to produce
the height which is the ne plus ultra OF the
new hats. the plumes are now stiffeaed
with fine silk wire. The ostrich feather
has further forsaken It's original char
aeter by consenting 20 be cut and used
as a pompon whicE forms the base OF
stin effects in aigrette and heron.
Natural owls wings are much used this
year. All wings occur IN pairs os three
or four. often in varying tints. and over.

source, and that every contribution
of more than 300 will be made pub.

tributions to the republican cam.
