Parasols for season or so content
ed themselves with plain coverings,
and attended to their duty with much
singleness Of purpose. But now that
we may think Of something else be-
sides duty, they are unfurled under
this summers sun touched up with
pretty embellishments as in time
gone by. They take their cue from
hats to be worn with them, and pass 1t
on to bags, so that there are two
piece and three-piece sets to match.
Considering the chic of these matched
sets it is very well worth while to
choose hats and bags and parasols
with reference to one another, instead
Of quite independently.
Usually it is the art OF the milliner
that inspires the decoration of parasol
or bag that brings these feminine be-
lodgings into the class Of the hat
worn with them. An example Of this
appears In the dressy hat OF black
chantilly lace trimmed with ribbon ana
flowers and the lace-draped parasol
shown at the left of the picture above
Here the parasol Is covered with the
same silk as that which makes the
foundation Of the hat, b0rdered with
the same ribbon as that In the banc
about the hat and finally yelled witt
the same fine black lace. There Is
deep fall of lace about the edge of thu
parasol repeating the narrow curtain

valuable time is always lost Always
just before election, candidates for the
Senate and House belch forth their
war cry, "A short session of the legis
lature," All the voters are always in
favor of speed on the part of the law
makers. And so it would seem that,
with all the candidates favoring a
short session and all the voters urging
it, such a result would be assured.
The mombers-elect journey to Mont
pelier firmly determined to do their
part towards bringing about that re-
suit But there the speed program
ends They cannot break away from

organizations and societies, special
lectures, and many other visitations
decend upon the well-meaning legis-
lators, "all according TO custom" until
they find nothing is accomplished the
first week except drawing their seats
and finding their way to the ice-water
tank.
In course Of time the speaker of the
house and the president protein Of the
senate are elected. Some days later
these officers appoint their commit.
