It is a coincidence that the men
who laid the foundations for Labor
day selected the first Monday in Sep.
tember. Why they did so they do not
know except for the fact that at
that time Of the year most Of the
industrial institutions Of the country
are either about to resume operations
or have done SO. and with q year Of
steady work and good wages as the
prospect the toilers felt more In q
mood to jubilate.
The first celebration in New York
took the form which has been the
accepted one for years, namely, a
parade of the union forces Of the
city. Following this another fea.

PRETTY IDEA FOR millinery
Hand.PaInted Effsets Are Among the
Seasons Novelties and Have
Been Received With Favor.

The application of analine dyes In
hand.painted effects to millinery Of
the season is an entirely new device.
and the result is unique. White os.
trich feathers. long and thick, are dec
grated in flower designs In natural
colors. The design runs upward with
the quill and spreads out on the flues.
Another fancy is to paint the straw
hat directly. just in the design the
flowers would make. or fruit. were 1t
placed upon 1t. On tho brim or ON
the crown. or partly under the brim,
or on its upturned edge. Here the
pattern Is traced in brilliant tones.
White straw and natural" straw are
the only shades 30 decorated. Any
surface or quality may be used. Gar.
den hats are really pretty done in this
way. A design Of cherries in red with
green leaves and gray twigs Of stems
is. for instance. especially odd.
