P.\T:IS, Nov. @7.-Hoot hats are the

newest wrinkle in millinery was IN
troduced at the fall salon, and is rap
idly out-distancing even the seasons
first creation-toques trimmed with
monkeys tails.
Following the death of the King Of
Greece from a monkey bite, nilliners
discovered that their customers posi-
lively refused 70 buy anything with
monkey fur on II. and accordingly
cast about for a substitute.
Then somebody discovered that the
hardest bird in the world to catch was
the owl. SO owl feathers became de
rigeur on hats of all sizes and shapes.

from 81 alive to 500 on the hat
Thousands are earning their living by

Madame VerOne "They might tolerate
wines and light beers, but even that
is doubtful"
All the suffrage leaders in France
are watching closely the manner in
which the women of the United
States acQuit themselves in the Presi-
idential balloting. Madame Verone
said.
I'VE believe that giving the Presi-
Dental vote to women in America
has done much toward helping us to
obtain our rights here in France"
she said. The Chamber Of Deputies
has voted in favor of woman suf
frage, and ! know OF no reason why
the Senate failed to ratify that ac-
ton. One of our best-known Sena-
tors had no reply to make except that
women are made to love and be loved
only Perhaps the real reason Is that
many members of the Senate know
hey would lose their Jobs II French
women were given the ballot. They
know very well that women consider
them too old and would cast their
votes for young and energetic men.
Here is one instance to prove that
we need women in Parliament.
few months ago the deputies and SEN
ators voted themselves large increases
in salary. They also increased the
salary of the president OF the repuh-
lie from 100000 francs a year to
100000 AT the same time they
passed a number of laws to encour-
age French women to have more chill
dren. They decided that women who
fed their babies themselves should
receive a pension of Is francs a month
"a little more than 81, at the present
rate OF exchange)! Had there been
one woman in Parliament she would
have laughed down such u ridiculous
proposal"
The day all the women OF the world
get the ballot war will virtually cease,
says Nine. Nerone.
This, of course, applies to offensive
war" she added. should France have
to face another defensive war, as in
1914, the women of France will take
the same stand they took The last
time"
