whole duty of women, but it is an
important duty, and the older a
woman grows the greater should be
her care to wear becoming garments,
arrange her hair with taste, and be
fastidious about her shoes and
gloves.
Precisely what is meant by the
word trump is a trife difficult to
put into language, but there is not
one OF us who does not know just
what a woman looks like when she
is a trump. A trump may be dressed
in silks and ve1vets and still lack
the air of distinction that is the
badge of the we1l-dressed woman. A
Woman's gown, hat, and wrap may
be of the plainest and have cost
little money, yet she may not be a
trump, but may be SO attired as to
the fitness of things that the
beholder shall take pleasure in her.
'Not personal vanity, but the
pleasure Of our friends should rule
us when we are considering what to
wear and how to wear it. Club
women are usually models of grace,
both in dress and department, and
those whose memories reach back
ward to the days before clubs were
in vogue, can witness to the change
they have brought about for the bet

NEATNEss IN THE SICK ROOM.

Every one knows that neatness in
serving adds greatly to the appetiz-
ing quality of food and this is espec-
tally true when it is offered to an
invalid. The daintiest china, the
prettiest glass and silverware, the
most Immaculate linen should grace
the tray that is sent to the sick
room. Hot food should be served
very hot, and cold food very cold;
lukewarm food is unpalatable and
in delicate stomach may produce
nausea.
When serving hot beverages or
food it is we'll to have the cups or
plates heated beforehand so the heat
of the foods will be longer preserved.
Milk and butter should be kept
cool and we'll covered. Greasy food
is Objectionable to sick people, and
broths should not be offered until
the greasy portion has been elimi-
mated. 1t is good plan to prepare
the broth a day before it is needed
and let it stand overnight. In the
morning the grease will have risen to
the top in a solid cake, which can
easily be removed. This, of course,
is the most thorough way, but when
it is more convenient to prepare it
shortly before serving, a bit of blot
ting paper or a crust of bread
skinned lightly over the top will
absorb the grease. Light nourish-
ment should be kept on hand during
the night-often cup Of hot cocoa
or bouillon given to a restless patient
has a soothing effect and is pro-
moter of sleep.-Washingt Post.

The news from Paris is that hats,
as a rule, are about the same size,
perhaps little smaller in the larger
styles One house has lately intro
duced some hats so small that they
seem like helmets. One of these
has the effect increased by trim
ming of two large Mercury wings.
Draped hats of taffeta will be the
first fashion for early spring, accord
ing to the Paris designers, and black
satin hats are among the predic-
lions.
This is a season of most brilliant
colors in millinery; cerise, kings
blue combined with green and a
touch of pink, the tan shades, sage
green, gray and pink ostrich plumes,
and smart combinations of black and
white, all are used with lavish
hand. One of the smart new touches
is to match the taffeta dress with a
hat faced with the same material,
trimming the top Of the hat with
contrasting color. Contrasting fac
ings are the rule, but there are
exceptions.
Wells of net two yards in length
finished on three sides with a double
hem of crepe are worn about the hat
throughout the first year These
wells are attached about the crown
hanging straight and unconfined to
the shoulders. For girls the bee
hive crown and wide brim are best.
These large hats are trimmed either
with huge fiat chrysanthemums of
crepe, with black lilacs, silk roses,
or with huge crepe Or taffeta bows.
There has been some talk of col
lars of a single thickness of fine
linen quite deliberately stiffened.
Some of these are worn with stocks,
others are not. Some have jabots
made of the same material, others
are fastened upon chemisettes of the
same fine linen with elaborate lace
ruffles matched in the long or short
sleeves of the gown.
This sort of neck dressing comes
in the same category as certain little
waistcoats of liberty satin which fall
over the skirt top (high-mounted
skirts)
The most strongly marked novelty
of the blouses for spring and sum-
mer is the return to the set-in
sleeve. But, as always with a
returning fashion, this comes back
to us in a slightly different form
from any we have known.
In some cases the sleeve is set in
at the regulation shoulder line,
sometimes it is we'll over the shout
der curve, and again it is added to
the kimono-shaped shoulder about
two or three inches below the Shout
der. In the last case it is always
joined with trimming, though per-
haps not more than scanning or a
cord.
The long sleeve, slightly full above
the cuff, has come back, and
undoubtedly it is pleasing change
from the elbow sleeve for morning
blouses. The full ruffle over the
hand is often seen in the new sleeves,
and the cuff varies from three to six
inches in depth.
| hope these will be as interesting
to the readers as they were to

A FEW WORDS FROM MRS. LEE.
EAR READERS OF THE
IEAl WOMAN'S PAGE: We have
all had such a hard, busy
winter | am sure we all well
come the glorious Spring, and
woman who doesn't revel in the new
hats, the new dress-goods, the new
fashions-is to be pitied.
Sometimes we grow weary of
being practical. A clever woman
once said, her idea of a Christmas
present was one she never could
afford to buy and which really was
very little use to her, but which
gave her JOY because it was beauti-
full to look at.
So-though we may not be able to
buy the prettiest hats, nor the beau
tiful dress-goods, we may at least
read about them, look at them and
rejoice with our more fortunate sis
ter who possesses them.
Here are a few items I clipped
from Harper's Bazaar which
thought would interest you:

portant measures pending before Con
gress He expressed the opinion that
the Navy League should pass resolu-
tions endorsing a legislative program
by which American ships would be re-
icved of Panama Canal tolls.
Some of the bill pending in Con
gress are actually a vicious attack on
American ships" said Mr. HobsOn as
he left the league headquarters in the
Southern building. Those bills which
provide no relief from toll for Ameri-
can ships would bring about an un-
just discrimination against the ships
of this country. | am informed that
Spain has already made provision by
which the ships carrying its flag VIII

ed to them by the Spanish govern
ment. You can rest assured that other
progressive nations will sooner or
later take this step and. if we do not.

have built No one who realizes the
importance of auxiliary ships for the
navy would for a moment think of
placing our ships on the same terms
as those which fly foreign flags, much
less giving other countries an oppor-
tunity to send their ships through the
canal on more favorable terms. In
self-defense this government must
make provision to take care of the
tolls of the ships which fly its flags.
l propose to support an amendment
to the merchant marine bill that will
provide for the paying of the tolls of
the American vessels, and it appears
to me that every patriotic citizen
should be in favor of it. 1t is to be

SEAWEED is ADVOCATED
FOR FOOD AND CLOTHES

DUBLIN, January 27.-Moved by re-
ports of how the Japanese, Chinese
and Scandinavians have developed the
seaweed industry, both in the dietary
table and textile mill, scientists and
manufacturers here are considering
whether enough is being made of
Irish seaweed.
On the west coast the "kelp burn
ers" have long made the burning of
seaweed one of their chief occupa-
tions, but nowhere in Ireland has it
developed as in one Of the Norwegian
provinces, where the seaweed revenue
is greater than that from agriculture
or fishing.
In many parts of Ireland, England
and Scotland a variety of weed known
as stoke" or "laver,' is eaten, and
so notable a physician as the late Sil
James Murray prescribed it hot fol
rheumatism and throat troubles on ac
count of the iodine in it.

HARVARD GRADUATES EARN
MORE THAN Sc A WEEK

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, January 81
That a Harvard graduate on entering
business life earns more than Sc a
week, in fact probably secures as
large, if not larger remuneration for
his services than commanded by the
graduate of any other college in the
country, is the opinion of those who
are familiar with such matters. 1t is
asserted the average is about SIS a
week for Harvard men.
The case in point has been brought
to public attention through an address
delivered by President John G. Hib'
ben of Princeton, in which he stated
that Princeton mans value was
about Sc a week when he is graduated
Statistics at the employment offices
show that graduates have obtained
positions averaging $15 a man. Then
positions filled by the alumni associa-
ton show that the wage is more than
SIS, and in particular cases it is much
higher than SIS, in many instances
more than $1,000 being received.
