OF THE DAY

Not Decidedly Novel.
Widest Departure From Seasons
Styles Is Small Model Which sua.
gests Spanish Headdress.

Whether 1t Is the hats that decide
the type of costume to be worn or
whether it is the costume which de-
termines the fashion of the hat is a
mooted question. If II is the hats
h a are the forerunners of the sea-
sons fashions. asserts a fashion au-
thority, then we need expect no very
striking new modes.
The mats are picturesque, charming
IN line, and very becoming, but they
are not decidedly novel. The widest
departure from the seasons styles Is
n small hat which suggests the Span
ism ~headdiess. A representative model
OF this type has a comb Of black vel
vet, high in the back, with tiny
yellow buttercups growing over it. OF
course there is a frill of black lace
ond a short lace veil in mantilla eff
feet.
Dropping plumage promises to be
more popular as a trimming than the
more erect angles. A very chic
model of this type is u black panne
velvet toque trimmed with glycerined
ostrich feathers in %nasturtium shades
sweeping off at one side.
Lace wells hold a prominent place.
Fur is used in many amusing ways
for trimming. Fur bows placed at I'M
usual angles are by no means the least
striking.
All the toque shapes, large and
small ones, will be very good for the
season. A smart example of the small
er toque is made of black velvet and
embroidered with melon seeds of cut
steel and with bits of brEnched red
coral.
Feathers of all kinds are lavishly
used, but burnt ostrich Is the ~favorite.
Among the new trimmings are
horses hair and elephants whiskers,

PAINT IS GOOD INVESTMENT
Apart From Appearances, It Actually
Adds to the Value OF the House
and Barn.

A prominent banker makes the
statement that he is influenced in lend
ing money to people by the appearance
or their property. II their houses,
barns and other buildings are painted
as often as necessary in order to give
them a s~pick-and-span appearance, he
feels that they are Il better risk than
those who do not paint their buildings
m let them go to rack and ruin
through neglect.
II is a condition in almost all mort
cages on buildings that the buildings
shall be Insured, for the protection of
the lender against fire. Some lenders
make the stipulation also that the
buildings shall be kept painted at reg
ular Intervals. This is a wise precau-
ton, as a building can deterlorate from
lack of paint so as to lose a large part
of Its value in a few years. In a way,
paint is also fire protection, since it
Is the slow combustion of the oxygen
and other elements in the air that
causes the decay of building material.
Besides, If for any reason it is de
sired to sell a property, the prospective
purchaser can easily be induced to pay
a higher price for a well-painted house
II a Tor a shabby one. A good buyer
looking over a shabby property is quick
to assume that the wne is bankrupt
or badly in need of money If his prop
erty has a rundown appearance and
makes his offer accordingly. If 1t is
neatly painted, however, he ssumes
that the owner is prosperous and hest
tates to make an under-value bid. In
short, in case of a sale, a coat of paint
will bring n price enough higher Than
could be obtained for an implanted
building to more than cover the cost
of painting.
Therefore, any way we look at 1t,
paint is a good investment for a prop
erty owner.

good-sized young poplars. Now the

TREE HAS "CANDY" FLOWERS
Indian Product That Rivals the "Gln.

figs. They are eaten fresh or cooked

PLANT NUT-BEARING TREES
How Half-Barren Acres and Road
sides Can Be Turned Into a
Source Of Revenue.

There Is a county In England
where all the roadsides have been
planted to damson plums, which have
not only made the landscape more
beautiful, but furnished many tons of
plums that were picked half ripe for
he manufacture of dyes hat became
scarce owing to the war.
II such a movement as this had been
taken in this country in the planting
of nut trees in former years, our road
sides would be more beautiful, the
country more healthful, the farmer
more independent, having these crops
that require little labor and that could
be marketed at leisure. Our soldiers
might have had sealed cartons of nut
meats included In their rations on the
European battle fronts that would
have been very acceptable as food and
have added little weight to their packs.
Unfortunately the tree has not been
much used as yet for crops yielding
staple food In places where men till
the soil. They begin with crops which
return annual results In exchange for
labor. Now that the crops from an
nual plants are becoming smaller
every year In proportion to the in
creased number of inhabitants, men
will set great trees at work upon mil
lions of half barren acres. These trees
Will return a larger iIcft for less la
Dor than would be required for annual
plant crops. People have not found 1t
out as yet.-Pittsburgh Dispatch.
