SPAIN SOLD 100000 WORTH
OF TOYS DURING 1918
400 Manufacturers Supplying For
eign and Domestic Demand.


Spain has depended in the past to a
large degree for its supply OF toys on pur-
chases from abroad. During 1918 this
country imported toys TO the amount of
about 100000, of which Germany fur
nished goods to the amount of about
Sl3O. 600 and France about $4,000 worth.
Twenty years ago Spain exported
scarcely any toys. In 1913 IL sold over
500 600 worth To various countries Cuba
being the chief buyer, followed by Argen-
tina, Belgium, Turkey and Spanish pos
sessions.
II has become more apparent i'm Spain
in recent years that the manufacture Of
tovs can he made lucrative industry on
account of the steady demand, with the
result that at present there are at least
800 Spanish manufacturers Of importance

hands. 80 which employ from 10 to 40,
and IS with less than 10. Other cities and

tories that cater largely To local use
The toy industry has made such pro-
nounced progress that a national eXposi-
tion of TOYS has been just uaugurated in
Barcelona, the chief commercial city Of
Spain. and il has been largely patrOniZed

THE REToRT VICTORIOUS

a certain brilliantly clever lawyer had
one little popularity: He fondly imag-
ined that he looked at least twenty years
younger than he really was.
One day III court he ws cross-examlning
n self-possesscd young woman who was
acting as one of the witnesses in a ia
nous trial, Needless to say, the court
room was crowded. The learned lawyer
was anxious to find out the age of some-
body the lady knew and she was equally
determined not to give him the desired
information. Th lawyer told her that
she could at least make a guess.
The determined young woman eyed him
with wthering glance. From your
looks | should say you were at least so;
but judging from the questions you ask,
I should say 49, said she TRANQUILITY.

Big HAT AND LITTLE
RIVALS FOR FAVOR,
MILITARY IN'TONE
Tricorne, With Cockade or
Stiff Feathers, Particularly
Well Liked by Those
Who Can Wear 1t.

There are two kinds of hat today. the
| very small and the very large The
! small hat is dashing and very often mill

| Scotch bonnets, continentals and thel
| trlcorne, that is welcomed so eagerly by
the women who can wear it.
! The tricorne assumes a very martial
air this season; it appears with cock
ade or staff feather standing erect
The Scotch bonnet has the rosette or
eagle feather, or even a tassel for orna-
ment
on the Russian turban there are gall
looms of metallic appearance and motifs
that are very warlike in design.
These with the tailleur or trotteur
frock still have the pas, although the
Canotier. by which name was revive the
wide-brimmed sailor, appears determined
to win It's place once more in femintneN
affection.
Black velvet has apparently the cachet
of famous milliners, although colors. such
as grape and taupe and tete de Negro,
have a vogue of their own.
And, just as the small hats take
dashlng OF jaunty air, picturesque is the
word to apply to the hat with the wide
brim, OF the kind that has long been
known as the GainsborouEh.
1t is q hat that comes and goes as
certainly as an ocean tide, and in spite
of the ban of disapproval or even the
high tariff, ostrich feathers or tips are
almost certain to be used for trimming.
The hat shown in the illustration today
belongs unmistakably to the picture and
portrait class.
1t has the wide brim slightly curved
to soften the effect and faced with chf-
fon. This is corded on the edge and at
a depth OF a few inches and it is shir-
red as we'll

feather tips are placed. Where they come

1t Is designed to wear at an angle,
which of course, adds greatly to its
style and at the same time displays the
chiffon undcrbrim.

facing Is of a delicate rose. and the os-
trich tips were chosen of the same del
