MILLINERY OPENING DAY
The Splendid Display Made by Sam 8.
Wilson Was a Delight to Many
Bryan and College Ladies.

AS is the rule when Sam B. Wilson's
millinery opening is announced, the
ladies of Bryan, College and vicinity
came in crowds today to see the fash
ionable display of the seasons very
best, and most beautiful offerings.
AS early as o'clock the popular
proprietor and his courteous corps of
clerks were busily engaged in showing
the shoppers through the long aisles
which divide this up-to-date establish
ment into a satisfactory department
store and gave opportunity for display
OF the well selected stock. Every de-
partment is bright and inviting with
new and beautiful bargains which at.
tract and fascinate the shoppers as
they pass. Novelties in dress goods in
clude the embroidered voiles, crepes
and flouncings, with shadow laces in
allovers and bands for trimmings;
linen ratine and the heavy motor
linens also being in evidence. The
long glass cabinets are filled with
stylish neckwear, purses, fans and
hose. and the big show windows in
front command special attention. The
artistic arrangement of laces and flow
ers in the windows make a pretty
background for the handsome dresses
displayed. The three elegant gowns
shown were displayed at the Chicago
National Apparel Show in February
and were purchased there by Mr.. VIII
son.
The entire second floor of this com,
modious store is given to the ready
to-wear and millinery departments.

EDGE DRY GOODS CO.
MILLINERY OPENING

The third annual spring opening at
the millinery parlors of the Edge Dry
Goods Company's popular store oc-
Cured today and the crowds who
visited the prettily arranged parlors
on the second floor of this store found
many beautiful and attractive bargains
in spring millinery and ready-to-wear
goods.
Mrs. Ewing, an experienced sales
lady, is in charge of the ready-to-wear
department and is assisted by Miss
Nicol. The offerings in ready-to-wear
are beautiful and were much admired.
The display OF spring hats is pretty,
and very attractively arranged. Mss
Posey, who is head trimmer, is skillful
with the milliner's needle, as the ele-
CANT hats testify, her artistic taste
being well evidenced. Miss Sybil John
son is assisting Miss Posey, and the
two ladies kindly showed The Eagle
reporter through the well arranged
stock. Smart lines are in all the new
shapes, and give marked style to the
present season. There seems to be a
delightful irregularity to the brims,
which is one of the most noticeable
and attractive features of the new
spring chapeaux. In tints the hats are
vari-colored, the Lohengrin blues and
Bulgarian shades being most popular.
Beautiful red and white carnations
were given as souvenirs throughout
the day. The opening was a marked
success in point of patronage and
sales. and was most gratifying to the
proprietors.

and attractive ideas, devoid of the OBJ
jectionable features that detract from
their usefulness and beauty. Small and
medium hats are the best, with the
brims rolling and the crowns low.
Exquisite blues are shown in many
tones and Nell Rose" a spring red
pronounced chic, is also seen.
The ladies of the city are invited TO
call and see the beautiful millinery
offerings at Wilson's and thereby be
convinced of their beauty and up-to-
dateness. The opening continues
through tomorrow.

INFECTIOUS DISEASES.
Easy Method by Which One Hospital
Prevents Their Spread.

The power of small glass partition
to prevent the spread Of infectious dis
eases has been known in the hospitals
of Europe for several years, but IS
only becoming recognized in America.
In the contagious wards of the Brook
lyn Children's hospital glass partitions
about five feet high are placed between
the beds. And the effect is really as
tonishing. In one bed may be a child
with pneumonia, in the next one with
scarlet fever, in the next one with
measles. Cerebrospinal meningitis,
diphtheria and other such diseases may
be represented in the other beds, but
since the installation of the glass par
titions no child catches" the disease
that his neighbor has.
And yet the air circulates freely all
around and above the glass partitions,
and one would think that the germs
would spread almost as easily as if
these were not there. Yet experience
has proved that this is not so.
Physicians are revising their views
about the spread of contagious dis
eases through the air. Some are even
ridiculing the fumigatiOn of rooms.
The suggestion is that most of the
pathogenic germs die very quickly in
the air; that persons must come fairly
close to the patients and be in almost
direct contact with them if they are
to catch the disease. New York

With Muscle and Brain.

The boy who can master the science
and art Of the higher craftsman will
hold just as responsible place in the
world as the practitioner at the bar,
the occupant of the pulpit or the physi-
clan. Indeed, the wholly competent
artisan, the worker with muscle and
brain who knows how, is the backbone
Of the nation. If it were not for him
there would not long be need for the
specialized professions He is the
weaver of the larger social fabric, the
mason who sets the foundation stones
of the country's industrial structures,
and many a man who is now a doctor,
lawyer or preacher would not only be
happier and better off. but enjoy more
real dignity, if he. too. were one of the
sincere artisans of the day.-Phila-

death that the public was made
aware that her remarkable novels
and essayist. Their style seemed so
Enthusiastically feminine that even
the most astute critics believed that
they were written by wOman's hand.
Another famous writer, Laurence
Housman, known already as a poet
and artist, made third and most sue
cessful appearance before the public as
a ''veiled lady" A remarkable book
appeared entitled "An Englishwoman's
Love Letters" which all the critics
praised and all the clubs and literary
circles talked about. Who was this
woman who had laid her heart bare?
The critics agreed that, whoever she
was, she understood her sex to perfec-
ton. The secret was kept very close
for a time. and then. to everybody's
immense Amusement, the real author
was revealed as a man after all.
Very few people probably will recall
the undoubted fact that one of the
greatest of Victorian poets. AlgernOn
