HAT PsYCHoLoGY.

1t isn't likely that the average Am.
erican woman will spend much time
in discussing the psychology of bon
nets as long as she has the proud
consciousness that her own hats are
in tue latest mode. But there posi-
lively is psychology of bonnets.
Mrs. Hunt said SO at the convention
of the National Milliners' Associa-
tion in Chicago. OF course Mrs.
Hunt is Mime. Hunt in the millinery
business. Every milliner must take
the French prefix even though she be
Irish and spinster. There certain
ly is a psychology of hots," said Mrs.
Hunt, entirely aside from the fact
that the souls of the majority of wom-
en- are in their hats. If every woman
should only look in the glass when
trying on hats and instead of giving
her undivided attention to the hat
would study the outlines of her face
as seen under the hat she would look
with scientific approval or disapproval
upon the hat. So few women do that,
you know Fit the hat or bonnet to
the face, and you will always look
up to date and be a fashion plate

DETECTIVE METHODS IN INDIA.
How Oriental Sherlock HoImeses Spot
The Gully.

uC 0OIItys
very old Indian detective trick
played its part in the arrest of the
Bengal youth. Khurdiram Bose, who
threw the bomb which killed Mrs.
and Miss Kennedy at Mozufferpore.
He was seated in the railway sta.
ton at Waini, some twenty miles
from the scene of the crime and was
eating a meal of rice, when two con-
stables approached him. One of the
constables noticed that the youths
saliva had ceased to flow, apparently
through fright at the sudden appear
ance of the policemen, and that, in
spite of his nonchalant air, he was
unable to continue his meal The
constable toyed with his man for a
while, and then, having his suspicious
confirmed, seized him before he could
fire the revolver with which he was
trying to shoot himself. This sys-
tenn of detection, it is stated, is ira
ditional among the Indian police.
A suspected person will be placed
with others, and native inspector
will mutter some gibberish over an
old four cornered rupee. Having thus
worked upon the fears of his audi
tors, he will give each of them q
handful of rice and instruct them to
eat it as fast as they can. The guilty
one, it is averred, will be unable to
eat, and the strike of the sanvary
glands is regarded as furnishing q
prima facie case for arrest.-West-

comes of them?' is a question full Of
interest to those who merely con-
lecture. The man or woman who
knows the stage from the orchestra
seats will answer by vague surmises,
such as, They go to the farm for a

iers in stores, salesladies, or wait

When asked about his personal
knowledge of the Summer occupation
Of the players of small part Nelson
Morey, Assistant Secretary of the
Actors Society of America, said:
-The past s>ason has been extremely
discouraging to every one, and es>
pecially to those who play small roles,
for the reason that so many better
known professionals are ready to fill
up their spare tine Swith parts which
in more prosperous seasons would
not be seriously considered. This
makes it hard for the beginners who
are struggling, and the Summer
months will perhaps dampen their
ambition by presenting long period
of idleness, but don't imagine for a
moment that these young men and
women accept positions other than
those connected with the stage. To
become a waitress or clerk in a
store would mean professional ruin
for a woman who expected to con-
tinue as an actress. No matter II
she had filled similar position be-
fore going on the stage, She would
not consider such an offer afterward.
There would always be the danger or
recognition by some one who had
seen her in some play, ana personal
pride would cause her to hesitate be-
fore risking such a discovery, which
would be noised about and commented
upon both by her acquaintance and
newspapers looking for good story
Somehow she would lose caste with
her associates, and the story would
always cling to her That rs the rea-
son why professionals who really need
the money do not go into something
different in the Summer.
"A depression like that of the. pres
emit will have beneficial effect this
Summer, because it will demonstrate
how powerful hold real ambition has

earnest will pull through somehow,
and GENE back in the Fail as eager
