THE great variety In hats made of
i jet combined with other materials,
gives reason to think that the jet
trimmed hat is destined to usher in
the spring and remain throughout the
summer. Already hats made of Jet
and maline, or Jet and lace, with n
touch OF velvet in their composition.
have appeared, and. while Appropriate
for present wear. they are airy
enough for summer. The jet hat does
not belong to one season but to all
of them. 1t Is good Investment in
millinery.
Many OF the new hats are quite
high. The shapes themselves are
moderate in height. but the trimming
gives the effect of very high crowns.
This phase OF the new styles is liked
for the combination of Jet with ma
line or lace. Two hats of this kind
are shown here. both OF the prettiest
of the latest models.
In one of them a turban shape is
developed with band OF Jet covering
the brim and soft puffed crown of
maline. Over and around this crown
there is standing ruffie OF maline
(doubled) supported by. fine wires.
No other trimming is used. Such a
hat is useful at any season. Thanks
to the recent discoveries Of manufac-
turers. the maline is not as fragile as
It looks. 1t has been made wates-
proof. The Jet is one OF the few mill
linery materials that have lasting
qualities.

ways has good story to tell and his
colleagues have plenty to tell about

has come to light:
John Sharp some years ago was
campaigning. His opponent was a
Populist. The latter's adherents had
issued a pamphlet declaring that Mr..
Williams really small holdings Of real
estate amounted to a million of dol
lars. While he was speaking in a
small town these pamphlets were
passed around. One fell into the
hands of stanch Williams admirer
and he promptly approached the
speaker. exclaiming:
For heavens sake. Sharp, read
this"
Senator Williams read 1t slowly.

were also reading. he said:

Smart Youth Had II But He Did Not

An important looking and haughtily
acting young man was wandering up
and down on the platform of the rail-
road station of small western city.
He was intent on finding an empty
seat In the express. which was almost
due to start. .vainly did he search
each car. Suddenly he assumed an
official air and, walking up to the
last car. he cried out.
All change here. This car will be
left here
The occupants of the crowded car
uttered exclamations which proved
their dissatisfaction, but hurried out
and packed themselves in other
coaches. The face of the young man
assumed bland and childlike express
sion as he settled himself very com
fortably in an empty seat.
Shortly after. the station agent put
his head In at the door and said:

1t is happy idea to have bit of
