THERE is never a time when hat, A moderately broad of brim and with a crown which is so conservative as to escape attention, is out of style. A shape of this kind with covering of velvet and facing of crepe or satin, trimmed with plumes, is about the most reliable of all millinery. It has no eccentricities that catch the atten- tion, but it's grace and elegance and general beeomingness make it always pleasing.
 The hat shown in the illustration is a superb piece of millinery made of velvet over frame whose brim droops, in the gentlest of curying lines, just a little at the back and front. The fac ing, of crepe georgette, is a creamy white. Besides the beauty of rich ma terial, that of exquisite workmanship adds it's charm to the fine color-con- trast of black and white and the pleas ing lines of the shape. Very hand some ostrich feathers, are used for the trimming. Such composition re- suits in a hat dignified and beautiful, which will harmonize with any color in the costume. It's wearer may face any formal occasion undismayed and very secure in the knowledge that her millinery is quite equal to the strict

Humor in Ancient Documents.

Domestic troubles in the fifth cen tury are illustrated in recently found papyri by curious indictment by wife of her cross-grained husband who refused to give her the household keys and bolted the door when she had gone out to church. There is de- lightful letter of the second century, B. O., sent from headquarters to off, cials in the Falum, ordering them to have everything ready for the visit of a Roman senator who wanted to see the sights and was to be conducted over the labyrinth and provided with a bun to throw to the sacred croco- diles; another, from traveller in the upper country, who says he had carved his friends names on the temple walls. illustrations of this kind might be in. definitely multiplied. They supply, as it were, series of small historical snapshots, by the aid of which we may construct a realistic picture of Graeco-Roman provincial life in Egypt.

Pat an Easy Winner.

An Irishman, an Englishman and a Scotchman were out of work. They travelled together in search ot em- ployment, and came to a farmers house and applied for the work of plowman. The farmer said whoever told the biggest lie could have the job. The Englishman said he went to the north pole in a tub. The Scotch man said he swam to the south pole. The farmer then asked Pat:
 Well, Pat, what's your lie?"
 begorra, sir" said Pat, T believe these lads Pat got the job.

in the architecture a new note; but in the older structures, with which Ha- vana is principally furnished, the old Spanish architecture, with something added, something that is found in the greater part of Spanish-America, the true characteristic of the capital ifs found The narrow streets, with their still narrower sidewalks, are lined with stores or residences of two stories. The first floor of the resi- dences especially is arcaded in front, and over this extends balcony on the second floor It is all typical of the tropics, the streets being too mar row to permit of awnings, and these permanent shelters from the suns rays and from the heavy rains in the summer, or rainy season, proving probably more effective and conven- tent.
 The impression that the visitor re- ceives at once, and the one that he takes away with him, is that Havana is beautiful foreign city There is <1ll dli ul EOlulOII duu Ol luAuTlOuS H. dolence in the place. but for all that it is now very busy commercial port, but the population is not so large as to crowd the town, and the busy scenes are chiefly witnessed at the docks, where ships are being loaded or unloaded, or at terminals of the railroads. It is an admirable place to take rest or to go sightseeing.
 An Evening in Havana.
 If you desire to see the inhabitants of Havana enjoying themselves you must see them in the evening" Ther the Central park will be filled with SsttTollers, CT with thousands seated oT little chairs which they rent for five cents Sp nish silver, listening to the concert by either the Municipal banC or the Artillery band, both noted or 2 ganizations v Cuba; and much th, same kind of brilliant scene is pre-

scented at Malecon, the capitals famed drive and promenade along the sea wall. In the daytime the chairs which one rents for small sum at night are free. Theaters also are open in the evening, and the ubiquitous nov ing picture houses are also in opera tion.
 Havana is city of plazas, prom, enades, colonnaded buildings, churches and palaces. It is all very European and yet there is just touch that makes the American feel that while he is in strange country he is at home and among friends. Sugar is the islands greatest commodity The cane once planted continues for near ly a score of years to give three good crops of cane each year. It is now possible for the tourist to visit the railway also will take him into the heart of the Vuelta Abajo country in Pinar del Rio province, where the finest cigar tobacco in the world, the kind that goes into the real Habana, is grown.
 All of Cuba is entrancing in the TO- mantle and entirely foreign landscape it presents wherever one goes. The trips from Havana are almost illimit- able. The island has several good railroad systems, and almost every part of it that is likely to prove inter- esting to a tourist is tapped by one or another of the transportation com panies.

est requirements of the current mode
 Another hat which is in the same class with that pictured has a brim of equal width all around, a crown of medium size with soft top and fac ing of the softest shade of coral pink. It depends for decoration upon an os- trich pompon from which springs a spray of long graceful bird of para disc feathers, all in shades and tints of the color in the facing. The brim droops a little on all sides and the pink of the lining is partially yelled by a border of black lace which man. ages to stray over the edge of the brim, where it seems to be in easy and irregular festoons.
 To some complexions this facing of pink is much more becoming than a facing of white One should expert ment with color before using it. But if a doubt disturbs the mind, in se- lecting a dress hat, as to the best of shapes, 1t may be set at rest by choos- ing either of those described here, or ( hers similar to them. They belong to the ancient and honorable order of picture hats and great artists have delighted to paint them, even before Gainsborough's time.

q HANDING at the pinnacle of popu- y larity, the pretty blouse of lowered chiffon hardly has rival among blouses designed for dressy wear. It is not as fragile as it looks, but it IS fragile enough, at that. The waists are usually made of chiffon having light-colored ground over which rather large flowers are scattered in many beautiful colorings and shadings.
 Besides these lowered patterns there are others, showing Persian de- signs in wonderful colors, and also some novelties rather difficult to de- scribe. In any case the chiffon is draped over foundation of plain chif- ion. very thin silk, plain or figured net, or thin lace.
 By way of decoration the waists are more or less elaborated with garnisil- ings of lace, small brilliant buttons, and especially with tiny fiat bows made of satin folds or narrow velvet ribbon.
 Destined for less brief reign in favor are the plain blouses of crepe de chine made with sloping shoulders and long sleeves set into a regulation armhole Narrow cuffs in bands of fine filet lace, or dainty collars and cuffs of organdie finish these elegant blouses. They are shown in light pink. maize, blue and sand color. Often a little vestee is worn with collar of plaited lace standing at the back, fin- ished with narrow band of black velvet ribbon which supports and holds

FiIet Lace Lamp Shades.

Have you seen the new filet lace lamp shades?
 They are beautiful. They are run with colored threads and edged with fringe of the same colors.
 One for large lamp is made of white filet run with various dull shades of blue. There is pattern of griffins and somewhat conventional ized rose trees in pots and the edge is finished with shaded blue fringe. The shade is mounted over yellow silk, and the effect of the light shin ing through the yellow and then the blue is delightful. The shade costs about fifteen dollars.

War Stops Imaginary Ills.

A peculiar accompaniment of the war is the reduction in the incomes of noted English physicians and sur geons. Consultants who formerly made $50,0O0 year or so, find them. selves earning little or nothing. As d. consequence they are volunteering their services to the government in such numbers that the authorities are barely able to cope with the supply. The reason for this loss of practice is said to be that the persons who cherished imaginary illnesses in times Of peace nave forgotten their hypo- chondria since the war began.

nered, kills policeman and is himself killed. Enough of adventure, excite ment and tragedy to last lifetime crowded into few hours, with mur- der at the end. But what for? The chances of the man getting away were so remote that only fool would have undertaken the job. The next day it is in Kansas City. Two men rob a shopkeeper of diamonds and money and try to escape by running through crowded streets, silly and futile thing to undertake. The end of their folly will be years and years of hard work, hard living, lonesomeness and heartbreaking monotony in prison. The man who undertakes to live by his wits, to get money without work ing for it, is foreordained to failure. And yet there are always men start ing on that road. In general they are men who failed in youth to learn the lesson of industry. They got the idea that the end of life was to get on with as little effort as possible. The boys who are spared all work by indulgent parents, who expect everything to be done for them and to do nothing for anybody else, are on the wrong road. Kansas City Star.

 war visit to Havana, Cuba,
 was something of an adven-
 ture, and not altogether safe
 one because of the prevalence of yellow fever. But the American sanitary engineers who followed the army of occupation cleaned up the city and the island, and Havana is now one of the most healthful places in America. In recent years, too, the transportation facilities for reaching the West Indies have been so revolu- tionized that the trip no longer re- quires unusual endurance or courage, being made easily and speedily in lux ury.
 Though Havana has been to great extent Americanized, it has not lost it's individual charm Tn all the nu- merous changes that have taken place in the last dozen years no attempt has been made to obliterate those characteristics which were both pic turesque and innocent It is true that if the tourist desires to ride in a volante, the native carriage, he has to make request, otherwise he is more than likely to take motor car. As, generally speaking, the roads around Havana are good, these little motor tours are very agreeable. In this connection it is useful to know that one may bring into the island his own motorcar without paying duty by giving the necessary bond that it is not for sale or for rent. Facilities for storing and running the car are entirely modern.
 Still Foreign City.
 Havana is still foreign city, so far as the eye discerns; and it may also be said that 1t is foreign so far as language is concerned. However, the English-speaking tourist finds no diff culty in making himself understood or in having his ideas as expressed in his own choice Anglo-Saxon in- terpreted. English is spoken almost everywhere.
 In the recently erected public build ings, such as banks, railroad stations and similar enterprises, there is seen

the collar in place and ties in bow at one side. Of course the throat looks very white by contrast and the little touch of black adds tone to the waist.
 Waists of this kind are very practi- cal, standing the washings that are necessary to keep them immaculate, quite as we'll as waists of fine cotton fabrics.

position passing the starting post, and

Then came the real battle OF su-
premacy. But the gameness OF the
English colt was not TO be denied AND
the horses passed the final eighth pole
nose-to-nose, with the stout-hearted
Dortch only a head behind. Little. by
little Royal II was seen to push for
ward; at the final sixteenth pole was
ir a, commanding position, and won
hard ridden. by a scant length from
the firing Tetan, who was the same
