Fads and Fashions.

New York, May 29--June is here
again, the month for weddings, and
which is thought by many to be the
prettiest time of the year. The styles
in bridal crowns have not changed
much if any since the April weddings.
Satin of the soft. supple variety called
satin ondoyant or satin antique is still
chosen by this years bride. There are
some exceptions however, for one
most exquisite wedding gown was
made of heavy satin in plain. almost
severe lines. but ii depended entirely
upon some very costly lace as its
A perfect model for a
bridal gown was seen in white satin
ondoyant and embroidered in white
floss. 1t was cut in princess style,
semi-ftting to give the hipless effect
and it seemed to hang from the
shoulders where were bretelle exgen-
tons outlined with seed pearls. The
deep yoke was of princess filet lace
and was edged with a band of EN-
broidered satin. The under-bodice and
sleeves were of embroidered white
chiffon. The stock collar of medium
height was bound with satin. The
train was cut in a separate section
which fell gracefully from the shout

Big Loss to Cities.

Upon several occasions the Illinois
Central officials have tried to get
some one OF the southeastern roads to
join in through rates, but to no pur-
pose. On the other hand, the same
roads have always maintained through
rates from the eastern cities into the
southeast This discrimination has
cost Chicago and st. Louis fully SIS,
zoe 900 annually in lost trade. The
Illinois Central officials determined
to secure a through line of their own
which they have succeeded in doing
At the same time Edward H. Hartman
has succeeded in completing a chain OF
railroads extending from the Pacific to
the Atlantic oceans. This chain is
made up as follows: Southern Pa
cifc, Union Pacific, Illinois Central
and Central of Georgia, extending
from San Francisco and, by the San
Pedro route. from Les Angeles to Sa-
yannah
The Illinois Central traffic officials
are now in position to make through
rates from the middle west into the
markets of the southeast, which will
place this territory on a parity with
the eastern seabCard. 1t is under
stood that if the interstate commerce
commission does not interfere and Ger
rect the long standing discrimination
the Illinois Central will take the mat
ter into its own hands and reduce III
rates.

The possibilities of this
move to the great central market are
great, for it means that the Ohio
River will no longer interfere with the
of through rates into the
southeast.
For more than thirty years the Ohio
River has been the barrier which ha-
kept the merchants of the middle west
from having an opportunity TO com
pete in that territory with the pro
ducts which are manufactured in the
seaboard cities. This barrier has
been maintained by the lines south OF
the Ohio River demanding their full
local rates and refusing to join the
ines north of the river in the making
of through joint tariffs.

Festival Of the Dolls.

A curious custom of the Japanese
is that of the observance of GER
tain day in April of each year called
dolls day, or the festival of the
dolls.
On this day all the girls and wom-
en- array themselves in gaudy attire,
and the mother Of each household
adorns the family room in gay col
ors. Then the little girls dress all
their dolls, old and new, in their
best Sunday clothes and prop them
up about the walls. In the after
noon a great feast is prepared, os-
tensibly for the benefit Of the dolls,
though the repast is actually con-
Sumed by the grown folks in the
evening. Japan is the only country
that has such festivity.

Animal Maternal instinct.

II have young retriever, gentle,
we'll bred, handsome" says a CORE
spondent of an English paper. "Her
kindly disposition has won her much
popularity, and she is loved by the
family cat, the green Amazon par
rot and the village children. A few
days ago some poor little superflu-
GUS Aberdeen puppies had to be
drowned. But when the man went
to get the little bodies to give them
q decent burial two had mysterious
" vanished from the pail in which
they had found a watery grave. For
a long time we searched in vain,
much puzzled at the unaccountable
disappearance, until servant vol
unteered the information that Mag
gle had two little dogs in her bed
And here we found them, two little
corpses, licked clean and dry and
gently laid side by side on the straw.
She had fshed them out of the pail,
carried them there and apparently
done all she could to revive them.
She has never had any puppies Of
her own, so this seems curious in
stance of maternal instinct"
