"Merry Widow Hat Really Killing.
Having caused the death of man in
Paris, the Merry Widow hat may be
spoken of truly as killing" creation.
The victim was riding in a public con-
veyance to the Bots de Boulogne, and
opposite him sat the wearer Of the hat.
Its huge brim was laden with flowers
and ribbons, and for some reason 1t es-
pecially annoyed the man. who grew
more and more distressed the longer he
gazed at the enormous proportions of the
headgear. In fact, his face gradually
assumed the hue of summer sunset,
and he gasped out protest to the wom-
an who was wearing the hat. she
straightway flew into rage and retorted
so sharply that it quite upset her critic.

Different Tones of White.
In these days there come so many
fabrics that are near white that it is not
necessary to get snowy linens In order to
get the white effect. There are mustard
colored stuffs, pongees, linens. mercer
ICED cottons and mhlls that are delightful
ly refined and dainty in appearance. And
If one does not care for yellow there are
the rose colors. the natural tan tones,
the soft, pale apricots and the delicate
grayish white fabrics. These do not soil
quite as readily as the white goods and
are almost as youthful in effect.
Picturesque Tailor Hats.
Street hats continue to follow the glo-
rified alpine shape, one side of the brim
only fitting upward. while the opposite
side droops lower and lower over the
ear. The greatest width of brim has
veered from the direct back to the side
back, and the trimming may fill in this
side Of the crown or it may be fastened
to the right side. 1t is some time since
hats have been trimmed On the right in

Flower Cure.

From the Health Record.
The Bloomingdale Institution for the
Insane. at White Plains. has lately made
some very interesting flower cure expert
ments on its patients. Fragrant blooms
have been discovered to have a subtle and
mysterious influence upon the mind. and
some Of the worst so-called 'fncurable"
cases at Bloomingdale have yielded to
the new cure. The corridors. halls and
living rooms at the institution are filled
with a luxuriance OF flowers, and II Is to
be hoped that the flower cure will become
a recognized feature in the treatment OF
the insane.

Favorite Dresses of Queens.

from IN-bltS.
Queen Amelia of Portugal is one of the
best dressed queens in Europe, her taste
being beyond reproah. Queen Helena of
Italy. on the contrary, is somewhat apt to
neglect good taste for extreme styles. all
though it must be confessed that she looks
best in the smartest of costumes. Her
majesty does not confine herself to one
dressmaker, but will visit half dozen
shops until she decides on what she
wants. What is more, she does not be-
lieve in paying exorbitant prices simply
because she is a queen, and dressmakers
and modistes say in a whisper that she
knows how to drive a bargain. The Queen
of Holland. too, likes gay clothes and is
exceedingly fond of French styles. She
will pay a good price for anything she
fancies, and experience has taught the
French dressmaker to show her only
green. blue and white, and to turn on all
the electric switches to see how the col
ors look by artificial light.

Longchamps A very famous actress
here in Paris was asked recently her
opinion on direetoire styles for present
day wear, and her answer was very
much to the point: MY opinion concern
ing this kind of dress is that If one wants
to wear it it should only be done at home
or before a small circle of privileged
friends The robe fourreau which is
fashionable just now is not a dress for
either town or theater wear"
There can be no doubt about the popu-
larity of the directore outline and Of the
ultra clinging skirt, and this popularity
could do no possible harm If We could
only make UP our minds to make firm
surd to bring forward the fact that
famous beauties in the directoire days
wore this costume or that; that they
adopted tights. as I explained to you last
week, or went to evening entertainments
in frocks slashed up at one side to show
the shapely limb underneath. All this is
history, but 1t is a far cry from the

directoire days Very many changes
have taken place since then. and the
greatest Of all these changes has been
made in the world Of women. The d.
rectoire women were beautiful and CO.
quettish and devoted to subtle intrigues
They were women who created salons
and attracted all the world to them by
the power of their intelligence and per-
sonal charm. They were these and many
other things, but they were not athletic.
They did not play golf. for instance, nor

In breadwinning or in speaking on public
platforms. They were all powerful, but
they did not enter public life shoulder
many changes have been made. Some
people think them changes for the worse,
some for the better. but all acknowledge
that the position of women has changed.
and not their positions only, but their
physical appearance, their manners and
their habits.
