! New York, Nay 16-Ea'rly yester
day morning, when Broadway was
| just beginning to rub its eyes and
sit up after a fitful period of COM
parative repose, a brave man walked
down that thoroughfare wearing a
straw hat with a band of many
colors. On his face was the phil
osophic calm of the pioneer, the eN-
preston of Its the fifteenth of May
and l don't give whoop." Follow
ing in the footsteps of the advance
agent of spring came others whose
cranial appendages were protected
by coverings of straw Today other
and less brave devotees of fashion
have donned the festive straw, and
the derby and the moth balls have
met again in scores of New York
households.
Since the memory of man runneth
not TO the contrary, custom has pre-
scribed that the right or privilege of
wearing straw hats on Manhattan

October Is. 1t is an unwritten law.
but none the less binding because of
that. Many man has seen his
elaborate Panama or costly head
piece from Manila trampled beneath
the feet of mobs because of his dar-
ing in disre garding this rule.
Spring brings many blessings to
the inhabitants of this tight little
Island between the North and East
rivers. The circus sounds the first
glad note of spring, and baseball
swells it to a glad acclaim. while
Coney Island adds to the general
joy But the last and most certain
harbinger is the straw hat

The park of Luna-the name be-

place of joy-will have its grand

Although it is early in the season,
the county has already paid out this
year SIPS bounty on sparrow eggs.
The price paid is . cents dozen.
and this means that youngsters have
brought in 10000 eggs since the be-
ginning of the season. According to
Frank Heginbotham, county auditor.
the county paid out $500 last year
for sparrow eggs, and he expects that
this yeaer the amount will be consid-
erably more. The opinion prevails
that the bounty has been the cause
of notable decrease in sparrows
in this section and that if kept in
force long enough these birds will
be gradually exterminated.-Salt

A man says that n great deal OF un'

among women. WOmen-when they
are by themselves-it appears, lack in
dependence of action. They cannot
shake off one they have met a moment
Or two ago with a nod. when they want
to lunch by themselves; The spirit OF
domestic hospitality is too strong. In
weak mOment-for Ii is painfully
s-eak-they insist on paying for the
company and the food of an acquaint-
ance they had merely meant to be civ
ii to.
or course. this sort Of thing seems
almost incomprehensible 10 man. In
vitations. in mems clubs, say. have II
be backed by pretty sound reason. The
pleasant sort of fellow who waited
about for some sensitive man on whom
TO insinuate his appetite would soon
find himself living a hungry life.
This is certainly strange and dis
lurbing insight into the manners and
rustoms Of women. 1t goes against
Dne's observation, too. Women usually
appear to be quite conscious that they
are doing an Independent thing in an
Independent spirit.

Woman Explains Mans Failure.

thinks the woman who marries a wild
chap does SO because of the w:ldness
It's in spite of it. The chances are
that the wild young man takes pains to
make himself agreeable TO women. He
studies their likes and dislikes and al
ways processes. whether he feels it or
doesn't, profound interest in their
health, their whims. the fit and fashion
of their clothes and even the welfare
OF their pet dogs Now, the man of
sterling worth, as he likes to be called,
will not condeScend TO court favor in
those little ways. He is convinced he
would make a gooG husband for any
woman. He knows he is honorable, in

those qualities ought to suffice. But
they don't. And the woman. repealed

HOW Woman Was Mnde.

According to a legend, Twashtri. the
Vulcan of Hindu mythology, created
the world, but when he arrived at the
final object which was TO be his chief
d'oeuvre he found to his annoyance
that he had run out of materials. He
had not single chunk of solid matter
left.
With a mental execration upon bis
carelessness he fell into Il profound
meditation. the result of which was
that he took ''the roundness of the
moon. the undulating curves of the ser
pent, the graceful twist of the creeping
plant. the light shivering of the grass
blade and the slenderness of the viii
low, the velvety softness of the flow
ers. the lightness of the feather. the
gentle gaze of the doe, the frolicsone-
ness of the sunbeam, the tears OF the
cloud. she inconsistency of the wind,
the timidity of the hare, the vanity OF
the peacock, the hardness OF the dia-
mond. the cruelty of the tiger, the heat
of the fire, the chill of the snow, the
cackling of the parrot and the cooling
of the turtle dove"
He mixed these together in equal
proportions and the result was woman.

The Way To show Approval That the
Animal VIII Appreciate.
Caress plays no small part in de-
yeloping the best in any horse, but this
is never to be by word Of mouth. You
may as well curse as bless for all your
horse knows or cares. The caress OF
the hand addressed to the part with
which the animal has just performed
some feat is always appreciated-the
expression shows that-and one loves
to see a good man as he lands safe
over a big place just reach back and
give the clever horse loving pat or
two on that swelling muscular loin
which has been the chief agent in ne
gotiating the obstruction.
Do not pat neck or shoulder or any
part not actively engaged in the under
taking. Caress may do no good, but
it is pleasant to believe that it does,
and we are quite positive that the
voice simply diverts attention. The
former mode Of address Is at least
worthy of trial If only as a mark of
appreciation between two gentlemen.
The threatening tones appear some
times serviceable, but this is so only
when horses have been abused and as
sociate punishment with the stern
voice The wild horse is as indiffer-
ent to the voice OF affection as to that

LAW FOR EARLY RISING.
Amusing Bill Before the British Par
Lament ssto Save Daylight

Amusing Bill Before the British Par
Lament "to Save Daylight"
Robert Pearce, liberal member Of par
lament for Leek, caused amusement in
he House of Commons the other day
by introducing a ''bill to promote the
earlier use of daylight in certain
months yearly" and for other purposes
relating thereto, says the London Mail.
Mr.. Pearce described with great en-
thusiasm his scheme to a Daily Mail
representative. The purpose, in effect,
is to make us rise In the summer acA
tually at 6 a. M, while we think 1t is
30 a. H. Thus daylight is to be saved
and time found, especially for workers.
for exercise between leaving work and
sunset. No alteration is considered nee
essary in winter.
The plan is to advance standard time
on each of four Sundays in April by
twenty minutes and to put it back in
four Sundays in September by the same
cur at a. m. on Sunday, so that we
should alter our watches on going to
bed ON Saturday evening. The effect
is:
After first Sunday in April real noon
equals - 20 by clock.
After second Sunday in April real
noon equals II 40 by clock.
After third Sunday in April real
canals m " o1n01-
After fourth Sunday in April real
noon equals 20 p. m. by clock.
Thus in May, though our watch
shows Z 20 a. M, the real time will be
a. m. On June % there will be light
till 10 so p. m. (instead of 9:19. Green
witch time), and workers will have q
whole bright summer evening for
amusement.
light will be: During April, % hours
May. June, July, August, 164 hours
