Humor Of Artemus Ward.

Some years ago the real scream In
exclamation was Artemus Ward. Our
fathers were wont to read the witt
eisnas of this great humorist and
laugh till the tears ran down their
cheeks. AS an example of how funny
Artemns could be when he tried, take
this extract from his letter on Jeffer-
SON Davis. president of the Confeder-
acy, alleged to have been written in
Richmond:

CHIEFLY FOR THE YOUTHFUL
Tam o'Shanter Hat Has All Its Ole
Popularity, but Many Must Not
Wear 1t.

Probably the most popular spring
hats for the young girl and youthful
matron will be the Tam oShanter
1t has been worming itself into the
good graces of femininity all through
the winter.
The athletic will wear it in knitted
wool, or very light peanut straw, and
the grille girl will dope it up with
roses as pink as her cheeks, and some
of them will even place a lace frill
on the inside to fall over their faces,
and shade the sparkle of their eyes.
There never was hat made that
could be more rakish or coQuettish
than a Tam o'Shanter. But under no
condition can it be dignified; there
fore, women over 80, bewarei
The Tam reflects the mood of every
girl who wears it, and if it becomes
as popular as fashion designers seem
to think it will, you won't have to
look into your sweetheart's eyes
young man, to find out if she loves
you. You will only have to tip of
the angle at which she wears her Tam
o'Shanter.

While the Question Mark and Bull
garian colors occupy the center Of the
millinery stage, feather manufactur-
ers have taken advantage of their pop
ularity. There is really no end to
the number Of small, brilliant and Gu
rious novelties and odd feather pieces.
They are pretty, and one might almost
call some of them amusing. They
stand up with a saucy air on the small
close-fitting shapes for spring.
Besides the question mark there is
class of decorative pieces made of
feathers land often of other millinery
materially called the Mephisto orna-
ments. Long, slender, curving quilts
or ribs of quilts without any preten-
tons to beauty, which suggest the
antennae of a butterfly, or fine, Incl
sive horns. Nature provides such ad-

SKIRT MUST HAVE FULLNESs
Extraordinarily Tight Garments Soon
to Be Decidedly Out of the Realm
of Fashion.

The most graceful frocks are those
in which they use no straight lines,
but hanging draperies," as the artist
describes them, and the newest of new
fashions show that all "tightness" is
to be banned Evening frocks will
perhaps remain tight round the an
kles, but our modistes may yet allow
one little more freedom Tight
skirts have had their day, and very
long day, too.
One writer. discussing the question
puts it very neatly in pointing out
that 1.-The only way out of the Difficult.
ty is to give the necessary freedom to
the skirts to the extent of some ten
or twelve inches, and thus allowing
the wearer to avoid those mincfng lit
tie steps which can never be anything
but ridiculously ungraceful.
A novelty in camisoles has made its
appearance 1t has been introduced
specially to wear under the f1lmy cor
sage worn with all smart toilets fol

of net with a broad band of ribbon
round the body, tied in a large bow al

pretty as blouse, and SO makes g

sage.

New Wares.

Nickel silver is the newest in plat
ed ware for the table and it not only
wears we'll but is pretty to look upon.
An asparagus dish in this ware is
very new and novel 1t has a ribbed
section for the asparagus ends, as
well as one sauce cup at each end OF
the dish, which is shaped Ike tray
A salad set contains two cruets
three little bottles for salt and two

other novelty.

and attractive. The middle part OF
the handle is wicker

Hats Like Handboxes.

There is another hat in fashion
which looks like nothing SO much as
a dolls handbook. 1t is of satin crino-
line lining with it's seams piped.
Sometimes there is a tiny little brim
that resembles the one on mans
silk hat, and again there is only a
stiff band of the material, ending in a
pump bow at the side.
Straw hats take on these shapes, as
do those OF brocade and metal cloth.
Both of the latter materials will be
used for dressy afternoon hats, while
satin, like straw. will be worn at all
hours.

ditions to plumage; their long, hard
fibers, curling at the ends, appear
among the beautiful, soft feathers of
the bird of paradise.
Besides these odd ornaments there
is great liking for the queer plumage
called humidi. 1t is long and strag-
Cling and dyed into many colorings
and shadings. The original color, in a
dark taupe, is very rich. 1t combines
with coque de roche with fine effect.
There is a great demand for it, which
promises to become greater. Its price
is soaring. But in season when
flowers are as we'll liked as feathers
and when every day brings out some
novelty of note, it is not safe to pre-
dict that any one item will outshine
all the others.
