WOMAN AND FASHION
Mourning Millinery.

Women who wear black have moi

ion. Although good taste insists upon
a conservative use of decoration, there
are attractive lines and styles In the
new hats.
The close turban of very rough straw
Is swathed with dull silk and has 8
simple bow at the side. Frequently a
frilling of black net softens the line
against the hair.
A larger hat may be turned up at the
side and huge soft bow held there
The front of another chip is curled up
on the low crown. simply caught by a
plated double fan of silk.
Dull black dahlias and silk towers
are used in simple wreaths around the
crowns, while stiff quills for the tailor
ed hat have come back for their share.
OF course the best mourning hat is
the one in which a refined simplicity
Is the keynote Unobtrusive and ele

Reception OF strangers
After the dispatch from Rome STAT
ing former President Roosevelt's rea-
sons for not calling on the pope during
his recent stay at Rome was read to a
well known diplomat, who did not
wish his name to be used, he said:
"There is nothing surprising in the re-
fusal of the pope to receive Theodore
Roosevelt. The same thing has occur
red with foreign princes who have Wis
tied Rome and is the reason why the
Spain never go there Troubles, how
ever, generally arise over the conflict

If the king of England went to Rome
and called first at the Quirinal palace
to see the king the pope would refuse
to receive him.
"All kinds Of devices have been tried
to get around this obstacle Two years
ago an ex-president of Brazil went to
Rome and called at the Quirinal and
then left Rome for trip into the coun-
try, which lasted week. On his re-
turn he went direct to the Vatican and
was received, as 1t was regarded as a
second visit to the city. One of the
Hohenzollern princes went to Rome
year ago and had an audience with the
king. Then he went away for month
and came back to see the pope and
was received through the subterfuge

he arranges the audience. The United

Catholics from the United States take

which they present to Mgr. Bfsleti at
