ing introduced as first models
for spring, has already been con-
firmed. Many handmade hats
are being shown this season. The
new braids are mostly shiny;
glace effects will predominate,
although one sees some effective
dull-fnished hemps and tagals.
A new glace braid from Paris
resembles nothing so much as
the scales of a fish, and it is APP
propriateIy named "fish-scaIe"
straw. Some flowers will be
used ON the new hats, and guam
titles of ribbon. The new colors
in millinery are, generally speak
ing, black, which is quite as
strong as ever, geranium- pink,
absinthe, polished-gold. mint
green, and baby chicks; the last
a charmingly suggestive title.
Among the attractive millinery
notions being displayed in the
shops, and worn at the southern
resorts, are sets consisting of
hat, handbag and collarette, and
fashioned of faille, or the new
soft lustersatins. One of the
most attractive of these is de-
veloped in the new Callot color,
soft shade of pinkish lavender.
The hat is very simple, a medium
sailor turned up sharply on the
left side, having no contrasting
trimming; the bag is of the same
soft luster satin as the hat, and
the collarette, also of silk, is
corded about an inch apart, and
finished with long ribbon ends
for tying. These sets are be-
ing made up in many colors and
are unusually effective as a
finishing touch or an afternoon
frock of silk, or one of the sheer
cottons.
Fashions in Handbags
Now that so much attention
is being given to details, and in
consequence we are all present
ing better groomed appearance
than ever before, the handbag
is being shown considerable at
tention. Once upon a time it
was considered for its useful
qualities alone. Now it lends
an added touch of color or rich
ness to tailored suit and after
noon frock, and it's appropriate
ness for both must be consider

morocco and like soft feathers

in dark colorings, the black pa
tent leather bag, lined with
bright red or cream-colored
MORE silk, and the envelope
purses, also lined with bright
silks, are good form with tailor
ed suits. There are some at
tractiye novelty striped feathers
also being used with dark tail
ored suits very effectively. An
tique brocades, japanese en-
broideries, and dyed laces are
fashioned into effective and ar
tistic bags for the afternoon
gown.
Several of the newest fashion
features are illustrated in the
afternoon frocks illustrating
this letter; the cape-collar is one,
the drop-shoulder and attractive
sleeve is another. The band
trimmed skirt is new and effec-
tive, and the fullpointed tunic
is smart and becoming.

TWO GOLDEN DAYS.

There are two days of the
week upon which and about
which | never worry, two care
free days kept sacredly free
from fear and apprehension.
One Of these is Yesterday.
Yesterday with all it's cares and
frets, with all its pains and
aches, all its faults, it's mistakes
and blunders, has passed beyond
the reach of my recall. I cam
not undo an act that / wrought.
| cannot unsay a word that [
said on Yesterday. All it holds
of life, of regret and sorrow, is
in the hand of the Mighty Love
that can bring sweet waters out
of the bitterest desert-the love
that can make the wrong things
right, that can turn weeing in
to laughter, that can give beau
ty for ashes, the garment of
praise for the spirit of heavi-
ness, JOY of the morning for the
woe of night.
Save for the beautiful mem
cries that linger, sweet and ten
der like the perfume of roses, in
the heart of the day that is gone,
| have nothing to do with yes
terday.
And the other day I do not
worry about is Tomorrow. To-
morrow, with all it's possible
adversities, it's burdens, it's per-
lis, its large promises and poor
performance, it's failures and
mistakes, is as far beyond the
reach of my mastery as it's dead
slster-yesterday. It's sun will
rise in roseate splendor, or be-
yond mask of weeping clouds.
But it will rise Until then the
same love and patience that held
yesterday, and holds tomorrow,
shines with tender promise into
the heart of today. 1t has no
possession in that unborn day
of grace. All else is in the in
finite keeping of that infinite
Love that holds for me the trea-
sure of yesterday, the love that
is higher than the stars, wider
than the sky, deeper than the
seas.
There is left for myself, then,
but one day of the week-to-

I'D RATHER BE SQUIRE


I'd like to be rich. and wonder who
wouldn't,
And yet if it cost me what some peo-
pie pay,
I'd like to be rich and find that l
couldn't.
There's too much worth while that is
lost by the way.
To sacrifice friends and ideals to sur
render
Ny heart and my conscience, my soul
! and my mind
And sell all my dreams for dollar
marked splendor
Would leave me too poor for the
- riches I'd find.
I'd like to be rich, there is pleasure
in money
It's good stuff to have, and it's good
stuff to spend,
It'll helps you to pay for your milk
and your honey,
And gives you chance to be nice to
a friend.
I'delike to be rich, but I'd never be
willing
To pay such a price as some men do
for gold
The cost is too high and the pace is
too killing,
And too many things must be barter
ed and sold

EVERY PLACE
SHOULD HAVE 1T.

A more active community
spirit is peryading many of the
small cities in the country. That
is we'll for more reasons than
one. 1t is a good thing the
idea is exploded that only large
cities have any need for such a
spirit or are entitled to it. Lo-
cal patriotism is just as much
needed in a place of a thousand
or two as in one Of ahundred
thousand if it is to live and
prosper. TO be sure it is not
the center Of so large a popula-
ton, nevertheless it is a center
and as such it is in duty bound
to do the best it can and be the
best it can, both for its own
sake the adjoining territory to
which, commercially and other
wise it ministers.
Of course it is possible to fos-
ter a community spirit that is
mainly selt1sh,, a spirit that con-
Germs itself solely with the COM
munity in which it exists. But
that is a false spirit, destined
in the long run to work injuri-
ously to the place that gave it
birth. The true community
spirit is marked by wise loyalty,
a hearty cooperation, real sup
port OF its. business men and
of its different institutions,
and it can have and does
have these fe a tur e S
without in any way seeking to
run down other places, which
quite rightly, are seeking to adj
vance their own good.

It does not pay to advertise,
say some merchants who have
done but little of it, and that
without keeping it up. The in
cident of the boy and the pump
illustrates the matter very we'll
The boy was sent after a pail of
water. He poured in the prim-
ing, poured out as much as he
poured in. Then he stopped to
rest and the printing ran down.
After some time of alternate
pumping and resting he conclud-
ed it did not pay to pump and
quit in disgust. The merchant
who does not believe in adver-
Using does it like the boy did
the pumping He advertised
again and then concluded adver-
Using didn't pay.

Few people realize how i'm
port it is to have sunshine in the
house. We must have fresh air,
they say, and throw open the
doors. But the suns rays must
be kept out. 1t will fade the
carpet. So they keep the shut
tiers shut and the curtains down.
What must be the condition of
a room which is kept dark? But
it is just true of an individual
chat sunshine is just. as necessa-
ny to,keep us in a healthful state
and capable of scattering
smiles, as it is for a house to
have both heat and light, in or
der to make it healthful.
Sunlight is a substance; so is
the sunlight of the soul. We
need not manufacture either
What the natural sun is to the
earth, the Lord is to the soul.
We need to open the shutters by
putting away every selfish and
worldly thought; we need to let
Up the curtains that separate US
from the neighbours welfare.
We are created to be diamonds,
to reflect the light. But if we
absorb it by turning our affec-
tions and thoughts wholly upon
self we become like charcoal.
