HATS AS VARIED AS
WOMEN'S FANCIES
Almost Any Chapeau That Is Be-
coming Is Considered MOdlsh,

The present season is marked by the
shapes as well as in trimmings, says
the Dry Goods Economist in speaking
of millinery. The smallest types are
represented by the close fitting tur-
bans, bonnets and bowl shaped hats
that are akin to skullcaps. Medium
sized hats are to be had In every va
riety. among them the shapes that are
nothing more than modified Tyroleans.
the Pierrot hat, the Reboux sailor and
the new larger bonnet shapes that are
coming to the fore. The broad brim-
med picture hat is also given good
representation In the seasons lines
and will without doubt be one of the
strong features Of midsummer styles.
Brims are large, medium and small.
but, as rule. they are all more or
less turned or rolled up. the exceptions
being few of the larger brims that
are level or undulating. Almost all
brims. however, have an initial droop
for several inches as they leave the
base of the crown. which produces a
head size that brings the hat down
low without giving the wearer the
appearance of being in eclipse. an eff.
feet which could not be avoided with
many of last winters hats.
Crowns. too. are much varied in
shape and proportion. They are bowl
shaped. boxed or conical and large or
small in circumference. Almost every
height is represented. from the almost
fat domes to the extremely high
crowns that are shown on the latest
French importations. The last named
are a decided innovation on anything
that has appeared for many years, the
crown being often as high as eight or
ten inches and their height being ex-
aggerated by the tiny brims. rarely
more than two inches wide, which are
characteristic of these new models.

LEGLEss AND ARMLEsS.
Yet kavanaush Was a Daring Rider
and a Famous Sportsman.


Far and away the most interesting
member and In many ways the most
remarkable man who has ever sat in
the house of commons was the Right
Hon. Arthur kavanaugh, who sat for
Carlow from 1860 to 1880 under condi-
tons which would have been impos-
sible for almost any other man.
Kavanaugh was born without arms
or legs-he was, in fact, mere trunk
of man. And yet he performed q
feat from which most men with their
full complement of members might
well have shruRk.
Strapped on to his saddle. he was
one of the most skillful and daring
riders to hounds In all Ireland On
one occasion. it is said. "the saddle
turned under him, and the horse trot-
ted back to the stable yard with his
master hanging under him. his hair
sweeping the ground, bleeding pro-
fusely. He merely cursed the groom
with emphatic volubility, had himself
more safely readjusted and rode out
once more"
So remarkable was the sight Of this
pink clad trunk perched on his big
horse that a child who once saw him
dashing out of wood ran shrieking
to her mother, exciaiming: ooh, mum
my, I've seen Satan himself! I've seen
him sure enoughw
Kavanaugh was also an enthusiastic
yachtsman and was the first to assert
the right of N. P's TO moor their craft
opposite the houses of parliament. He
went on u shooting expedition to Al
bania and published charming book
on his experiences, illustrated with ad-
mirable photographs taken by himself,
while among his fayorite pastimes
were angling and tree telling.
His most famous exploit. however.
was his ride from Norway to India.
Accompanied by two friends. he rode
across Russia to the Caspian sea,
thence to Astrakhan and Astrabad
and through Persia, laughing at the
perils and fatigues of journey which
might we'll have daunted even the ia
nous Colonel Burnaby.
Kavanaugh, who was the father Of
| four handsome sons and daughters, all
perfectly formed was carried into the
house of commons on the back Of an
attendant, and was certainly one Of
| the keenest and gblpst Of LEGISLATORS Of
his time.-London Tit-Bits.
