as a matter of fact, warmly seconded

they should quit their life of hardship

been changing.
The old man, Jim Ross, incoming

become Nunbearable to her. Himself
an old gold prospector, he had found
nothing in all his life except few
worthless pockets; yet he had never
ceased to dream Of the day when he
would make his fortune by some lucky

There had once been rumors of
gold in those hills, but nobody had
ever found any. Day by day the old
fellow would set cut hopefully with

he would return with his hopeful
stories, which so Jared his daughter

Because mourning hats have a
lasting place in the scheme of things,
special fabrics are manufactured for
making them. Besides Grape, nuns
yelling and grenadine there are heav-
Ter silks that are used for the utility
hats of mourning. Grape is often
used in the decoration of these hats
of heavier silk, and since the process
of waterproofing it has been discov-
cred it's durability rivals that of any
other silk.
Three mourning hats for street
wear are shown here. Dignified and
conservative shapes are chosen for
them, and they are made with ex-
quisite neatness and accuracy. Tucks
and folds and ornaments made of the
material are as characteristic of these
hats as of those made entirely of
Grape.
At the left of the picture sailor hat
of chiffon taffeta has brim of even
width all around, covered with the silk
put on plain, and a soft top crown.
Overlapping bias folds cover the side
forms the trimming. It is posed
squarely in front.
At the right hat with a wider
brim is covered with faille silk put on
smoothly. There is ribbon band
about the crown, and where the brim
lifts at the back a bow and ends of
tho same ribbon. The ornament at
the front Stimulates bird and is made
of overlapping folds OF silk on q
foundation.
At the top hat suited to the ma
iron is made of corded silk. 1t is
tricorne shape and the silk covers
the shape smoothly. Ornaments re-
sembling quilts are made by winding
foundations of wired buckram with
