A PhllanthropIst.

A north side lumber dealer con.
tracted to supply a lot Of lumber to a
stranger. On looking 1t over he
found it full Of knotholes and told his
customer about it frankly.
"You may not want this lumber, =
he said
why not?'
I'll have to be honest with you.
1t is full OF knotholes."
The stranger only laughed.
''I'll take it." he declared. "The
lumber is to go around some base
ball grounds. Knotholes won't hurt
matters any. was a kid myself

Although elderly women allow
themselves much greater latitude in
the matter OF shapes, when choosing
millinery, than they did a few years
ago, some of them look best in the
close fitting comfortably made toques
and continue to wear only this variety
Of headwear. But they like change
in methods OF trimming and minor
changes in shape, such as a variation
in crown or brim outlines from sea-
son to season.
A very handsome toQue Is shown
here, designed to meet just the de-
mands made by elderly women Of
quiet taste. 1t is made Of black silk
having a high luster, and trimmed
with wings and covered cords. 1t TITS

Hats Of this character may be worn
with veil. The brim extends out at
the front and prevents the veil from
catching In eyeglasses. AS wells are
neat and becoming and, more espe-
cially as they hold struggling hair in
place, a small hat should be shaped
so that one may be worn with them.
There are numbers of soft, close
fitting shapes for those who are not
welded to the toque, and among these
very novel designs in turbans. Many
crowns are flexible and brims are not
entirely rigid, being made over rice
net foundations. Short curling plumes
are used ON many OF them. Wings
and breasts, however. have proven
the most popular for trimming velvet
turbans.
