The Art Of Covering Up our

No matter how your heart
aches. learn to greet everybody
with a smile, with sweet, cheer

oarade them, do not peddle them
out. The people you are temp
ted to load with your own may
have all they can bear OF thelf
own.
| once knew a woman who got
into such a habit of telling her
troubles to everybody that she
could not restrain herself ever
when people went 10 her foi

and sorrows, took precedence O

Lazy Birds.

The "mound fowls" of Australia
and New Guinea construct mounds
Of decayed leaves for their nests.
In these the eggs are laid and COW
cred over with the same material.
The warmth engendered by the de-
composition Of the leaves causes the
eggs TO hatch, and the young In due
time burrow their way out to lie
and the open air. These birds are
regarded as the LATEST OF all the
feathery kingdom. Next to them
come the common blackbirds OF
America for laziness. These black
birds never build nests of their own,
but Law their eggs in the nests OF
other birds and leave them to be
Matched by foster mothers. This Is

Holy Week and Easter Sunday
Services at Assumption
Church.

The solemn ceremonies instituted
by the Catholic church to commem-
crate the Passion and Death of Our
Lord and Savior were fully and beau
tffully carried out at Assumption
church by the clergy of the parish as
sisted by Fathers O'Conner of Sauk
Centre and Houpt of Coils. On We'd
nesday, Thursday and Friday even
ings the Tenebrae were chanted by
the clergy. On Thursday morning
solemn high mass was celebrated, fol-
lowed by the procession of the Bir

Merry Widow Scored.

One of the city papers in discussing
the feminine head gear, gives the fol-
lowing manly opinion of the befeath-
ed and beribboned creations with which
the members of the weaker sex adorn
themselves:
The "Merry Widow" style of female
hat lasted one season, and is gone. 1t
was public calamity. II interferrsd
with travel, business and social inter-
course. It was a reproach to feminine
sense and, in our capacity of guardian
of the nations health, safety and
sanity, we denounced that hat as
scare crow that would make an autom-
obile jump a country road 10 inches
deep in mud. tx
The new style is different, pretty
much opposite. The new hat, instead
of spreading all over creation, turns
down, covering the head to the collar
bone, or to the wishbone, if you want
to be ultra fashionable. It looks, en-
semble, like cross between saloon
sawdust cuspidor and what Mary Ann
boils spuds in. But we indorse the
new hat, cheerfully and generously. 1t
is not in the way. 1t will cover up
freckles, boils and pug noses. 1t re-
quires no hair to make her sit on right
and Wen pay less for hair. It can be
used as waste busket, ash receiver
or to sleep the baby in. To be sure, it
may, be carried to an extreme and
make a woman look like tom cat
with his head fast in tomato can,
but the looks of the thing is matter
that is wholly up to the women folks.
Long may the new hat wave!
