Christ the Lord is risen. and there
fore must get me a new hat and gown
with which to celebrate this great an
niversary."
Sounds terrible, doesn't it?
Makes you positively shudder at its
bald irreverence.
And yet. this is substantially what thou
sands of American women are saying by
their manner OF celebrating Easter Day.
What are you going to have new for
Eastern Nearly everywhere in the last
few weeks of Lent you hear that ques-
ton.
And in the dressmakers little back
room. at the tailors shop, in the sweat
shops, and in the millinery workrooms
overweight nerves, tired fingers, and
throbbing eyes are kept at their tasks
twelve and fifteen hours a day to answer
that question.
Truly we are doing almost as well with
Easter as we have with Christmas.
I know a girl who stayed home from
church fast Easter. because 81 didn't have
a single new thing to wear, and I felt
too shabby"
I know two other girls who went to
church on Easter for the first time in
two or three months to wear their Easter
suits and hats.
Just think for a moment of what Easter
means.

Face Paste.

Mrs. c. L.-Here is the recipe for a
paste which may be worked thoroughly
into the skin before using powder: Four
ounces of sweet almond oil, sd grains
melted white wax, 80 grains spermaceti.
1oc grains finely powdered benzoin, 90
grains tincture of ambergris, and 80
grains rice powder. Be careful in apply
ing this foundation cream for the face
powder. Creep closer and closer to the
eyes and hair, so that there is no line
OF demarcatlon between the flesh of the
face and that under the eyebrows and
the hair. These little points mark the
differences in the careless or careful
makeup.

Manager Gardner.
Since acquiring ownership of the
Hotel Windsor a year and half ago
it has been Mr.. Councils ambition to
make it the peer of any hotel in Geor-

strongly to commercial men and at
the same time prove an attraction to
Northern tourists here.
How well he has done this the public
at large well know.
Eighty thousand dollars has been
expended in making new hotel Of
the Windsor, Mr.. Council sparing no
care or expense in the rehabilitation
of the property Briefly stated, only
the walls of the building, as he bought
it, remain. Everything else from roof
to basement is new.

Of these the snowballs are the show
lest, and of the two varieties men,

red. The balls are about four inches
across.
1.-The mock orange is the favorite
scented shrub Of June. The large
Powered variety though scentless is
snowy The prairie rose has a snowy
but almost scentless. The fruit is at
tractive and the bare branches have a
rich deep color which shows up well
in the winter months.
I'm July the following shrubs will
bloom if set out this spring: Waterer
rea, button bush and sweet pepper
bush. The ash leaved spirea has
panicles from five to twelve inches
long with foliage resembling the
mountain ash. 1t is easily grown and
suckers plentifully, though not enough
to become q nuisance.
1.-THE Waterer spirea and the Doug
las spirea. are both profuse bloomers
and grow readily and rapidly. The
Waterer is magenta in color and the
Douglas rose red. The button bush
is most attractive when used in firing
ing bodies Of water. 1t is readily
grown and worth all that it costs.
though I never recommend 1t for a
small collection.
"In August the inexpensive shrub
that will bloom if planted now is the
rose of Sharon, which comes in many
colors, both double and single. OF
them all the single white is consider
ed the loveliest and often blooms un-
til frost. The blooms Of this varie-
ty are also much used by those hav-

king poultices. The foliage is at

This is of 1uXuriant growth and is
very popular in the treeless belt at

For September blooms this year
perhaps the favorite is the rose of
Killarney. This is considered the best

vicinity Of New York. It blooms
from the middle of June to the end
of September, but the height of its
season comes in the first week in Sep
