The chances seem to be fair for two
millinery openings this spring instead
of the customary Easter one only The
fact that Lent does not begin till March
/, and that an exceedingly unpropitious
winter has already soiled headgear to
an extent that Will compel much of it to
be discarded, will mean that something
will have to be done to bridge over the
six weeks between the real beginning of
spring and the placing Of the "crea
ton" which is the crowning feature Of
the Easter service. Already the new
styles for spring are shown, ana not q
few of the most up-to-date dressers will
be seen arrayed in the new style soft
hat of straw. or other springlike ma
terial. The popular collapsibe hat,
which has found its place the past win
ter, is not to be discarded with the COM
ing of sunny days. Far from it. The
advance showing is composed largely OF
the kind of hat one may tuck into one s
trunk and go one s way rejoicing.
These simpler styles will of course be
replaced by the more elaborate ones In
ter on, for let no one think shat the
days Of the more elaborate hats are
past, because he sees those simple. com
Portable things which fold their wings
like the Arabs fold their tents. Here 5
what an eastern writer OF things fash
ionable says:
"The dissatisfaction that the trade
has felt and expressed over the scantily
trimmed hats that are now in vogue
would argue for more elaborate style
of decoration. The tuTbau seems to be
moro elaborately trimmed in proportion
than the large hat. In the case OF the
latter, the trimming is more often ap.
piled to the under brim, than on the
h.c hay oil
sorts Of rather tight effects, such as
bows, buckles. and rosette effects in
fancy feathers and small flowers.
'.Of course. hats that allow of n gen
erous display of the under brim are
faced or partially faced. or else have
folds or other hat motive. Soutache
braid is well liked for this purpose, and
is used In variety OF ways for trim
ming the spring hats, not only for adults
but children as well. Tho braid is usual
" sewn on a silk foundation, and in
straight rows, or it may be applied to
the straw direct.
"From present indications there will
be plenty of work for the milliners this
season, for the handsomest hats show
very fine workmanship.
These observations are reproduced
here, not because any one woman was
ever benefited by the observations of
another woman, but because they may
interest some who viii agree with them
and some others who will disagree. They
are said to have been made by a woman
over 30, but that doesn Z define at all
Most women nowadays confess TO being
over 30 and those who don't are only
girls.
A married man either talks a great
deal about his wife, or not at all
The man. who talks to woman about
another woman never tells the truth
He is either trying to make the one of
whom he is speaking better or worse
than she really is.
The temperature of man s affections
can be accurately gauged by the amount
of monev he spends on the object of his
affections.
Do not trust the man who begins his
love letters "Carissima. He has writ
ten many before.
When man is in love he says, "How
happy 1 ann When a woman is in
love she says, care you happy?'
A ruffled white apron and plate of
good doughnuts will more move man s
thoughts to love and matrimony than
a Paris gown and tiara.
The one thing man cannot forgive
In a woman IS strength.
Many man is unhappy because he
has not married the woman that lie
loves. But often he would be infinitely
unhappier if he had married her
A woman who can allure, yet keep
herself always little out of reach is
always the most desirable TO men.
Many a man has beheld girlish inno-
