one OF the most famous Japanese

has the work been performed that

exception of the great old pine tree,

1t is trained in the shape OF junk;
hull, mast and sail being perfectly
reproduced. For centuries the pa
tient priests have bent, pruned. pried,
tied and propped up the limbs and
tWigs Of this tree. And as in Japan a
tree is considered chiefly for its age,
form and tint, and not for use, this is
venerated as a beautiful and sacred
object
In the center Of the garden is a.
lake with pine clad shores and pine
covered iSlets. Each tree in a Jap
anese garden has its special land
scape name, according to its position
and purpose in the combination.
Pines are always used for a frame
work in working out a foliage design,
says Country Life in America. 1t is
symbolicaI of unf1inching purpose, and
its spiny leaves are supposed to be
endowed with the power of driving
demons away.

erly. These points are SO well taken
care Of by artists in millinery that
even the simplest-seeming hats are
really amazingly well thought out and
adapted to their wearers.
The lines of the Dutch bonnet, the
dear WilheImina, have been managed
in all sorts of ways. A pretty adapta-
ton is shown here, having a crown
of purple violets and brim covered
with purple velvet A similar hat, in
soft hemp, shows a decided point at
the front and a small, rather pointed
crown, which would be Insignificant
except for two ears of silk perched at
the front. The shape in navy blue
had a wide fange of velvet in the
same color and the loops, or ears,
were of taffeta silk, also in plain navy
blue of a rather bright shade.
A hood of turcan laid over a cap
shape, covered with black silk, is also
an unusually clever development of
simple lines and handsome materials.
The rolled-up brim is covered with
two folds of black satin and bow Of
ribbon in black satin finishes band
which apparently holds the point Of
the hood in place at the back
The liking for quaint shirrings,
uuillings and ruchings came in with
the return of fabrics with which they
were used almost a half century ago.
A shirred band of changeable tafeta
finishes the soft straw bonnet shape
shown here. Two rosettes of the tat
feta look like big, full-blown roses;
they are placed at each side Of the
brim A short broad plume, in the
coIorings of the silk, finishes the hat
The hats shown in the illustrations

Suit skirts for sprino.

Seldom has there been a season
when so many fancy trimmed suit
skirts were shown as this spring. says
the Dry Goods Economist This is
due to the vogue for the demi-taflor
made. which calls for a skirt to cor
respond. The newest idea in the mar
ket at present is the draped skirt,
which is shown IN some of the high
class suits of soft materials, such as
chiffon, tafeta and charmeuse. There
are a few models of this kind now in
the market and many more are in

sandaIs. for Small chIIdren.

If children wear sandals until they
are three or four years old, they will
have a naturaI-shaped foot, strong,
ankle muscles and will stand and walk
properly We are all taught to point
the toes out when walking. This. how
ever, is an unnatural position, and
only adds a greater strain on the IN
side muscles of ankle and foot, caus-
ing, in many cases, weak ankles and
other foot troubles. Let the toes
point straight in front when standing
or walking. allow the feet to have
plenty of room to grow, select broad,
dat-heeled shoes for your children,
and start them toward manhood on
womanhood with normal feet, strong
ankles, thus Iessening the danger Of
corns, bunions and all other foot trou-
bles.
