HATS ARE OF MANY C0L0RS
Wide Range Of Tints Adds to Charm
and Variety Of Smart Wom-

The wide range of tint offered In
this season of colors adds TO the
charm and variety of the smart wom-
ans toilet, but 1t also necessltates a
happy eye for color In choosing the
hat to top ones smartest spring cos
tune. This delicate sense of colorlng
may be called Into play to select from
an assortment of queer browns and
blues, yellows, reds and greens, the
tone which will blend TO perfection
with the suit or frock In question. For
many Of tn tints offered are more or
less queer" variations of the good old.
fashioned colors which wera their fore
runners. There are delicate blues,
ranging from perlwlnkle through or

which one may favor the new dent de
lion, or swing ones fancy from the
most brilliant of burnt orange to the
palest of canOry tints.
The spring tendency for fabrics of
Ligher luster has found stanch ally

Ease and Comfort In java.

European resident in moderate cir
cumstances may keep many servants !;
while the Mohammedan residents,
whose religion allows them four wives,
are usually able TO support the full
number. OF late, however, the II. @.

Java, has forced them somewhat to-
reduce their families. In Java II a

not bother to go to the ceremony, but
very kindly sends his sword or his hat

He couldn,t Tell.

The bus was fitting along at good
speed when an elderly man of ample
proportions threw his dignity to the
winds by falling into the road in try
ing to alight while the bus was In
motion.
Presently the injured one struggled
up and dashed after the vehicle sith
frantic speed.
Didn't you see me fall off, con-
ductor?' he shouted.

"curbs FIt for Heroes 10 Stand In

"curbs Fit for Heroes to Stand In.n
The New Statesman says that Lon.
don has not had so many beppars
within living memory as today, and
the worst Of it Is, they have none of
the romance of beggary.
They are prosaic, dull, homeless.
Most of them look as If they had been
born to be commonplace citizens, earn
ing more or less honest living like
you and me. To speak strictly, indeed
they are not beggars, but collectors.
Ihey stand on the curb they wait in
the doorways of restaurants; they
haunt the streets of the respectable.
All the time they keep shaking their
narrow white boxes, and asking for
more.
They vary from the sullen to the
responsive. Some of them seem to de-
mand a right rather than to beg n
favor. They believe that there is
money somewhere, and 1t is only Just
that II should be shared.
ut is the habit of civilized societies,
at the end of great war, to provide
curbs fit for heroes to stand on"

Many years ago, ninety.nye to be

written mainly by himself but also
containing work by some others.

the little volume is the title page

two or three of William Eaton's com

In Stamford town the other year
Some land was sold It doth appear
And on this was made league,
which some have said was an intrigue.

And for 1t then his fleece they'll shear;

And took the bone and then Withdrew.

1.-THE PARSONS PARAGRAPHS"
Climate and Religion

For more than hundred years
now the conviction has been grow
ing that climate exerts quite an
influence upon morality and reli
gion. Arguments have been ad
yanced that the religion of people
who dwell in warm countries is
passive and sensuous, while in cold
err countries the religious impulse is
more rugged the moral life more
yirile. There are students who claim
that the changes of historic christi
anity, from a religion OF renuncia
ton when II hourished in. southern
Europe and Asia, to one OF aggressive
ness and optimism, was the result Of
shifting its center from milder tC
more invigoratlng climates.

This is rot written to show tina,
the religious life OF Vermont is
what Mark Twain wrote about the
weather that everyone taks about
it. but no one does anything" On
the contrary this is to remind those
who read. that our climate is con
ducive of the finest moral reactions,

DRY of the influence of climate upon

AFFAIR IS PLAN

Two CoIored Men Said to Have

sey. the happy hunting ground for
pugilistic buck and wing perform
ances, is about to lend official COun.
tenanCe to an affair Of the fists
between Harry Wills and the dis
Jack Johnson, according to
a semi-authentic report.
1t is said that thiS worthy pair
have already ruined the dotted line
of a contract calling for them to
meet in n twelve-round bout before
the National Athletic Club of New
ark late in, November, but that the
announcement is relng kept under
cover until the fOrmality of an cleo
tion can have taken place.
The bout, If held will be interest
ing from the standpoint of author
lied hokum. But 1t Is not altogether
certain that even New Jersey can
lend itself to an enterprise of this
nature.
Those behind the affair seem to
have overlooked the slightly essen.
tial fact that Jack johnson is an
eX-ConviCt and as such stands barred
in every State in the Union. New
Jersey included.
1t will firS be necessary to get

collaboration with Langford, Norfolk
and Thompson. Suspicion seems to
settle inevitably over all bouts be.
tween negroes, and both johnson
and Wills are quite brunette of coun-
tenanCe.
In addition. IL Wills is' what he
claims to be, Johnson hardly figures
as a suitable opponent. The former
champion is merely middleage
drifter who happens to need the
money. He lived high when he could
afford to. and when cXpatriatio and

Walker.

Tired of Boosters.

wv E are tired Of hearing the
" boys say beforehand what
w they are going to do to
Britton, and then listening after
wards to their excuses as to why
they didn't do it.
Britton is a great fighter, and
his greatness lies in the fact that
he can take on these strong young
fellows and out-guess out-slick,
and out-everything them. He can
not punch much, and it would seem
that a strong-bodied, stout-hearted
young fellow with nerve enough to
tear and keep tearing at him ought
to pull him down in fifteen rounds.
But they don't do it.
The first thing they know they
are all sewed up by the old fox of
Fistiana, and are being twisted
and turned and showed around
until they hardly know whether
they are afoot or on horseback.
To this writer it is a treat to
watch Britton %utgeneraling the
young fellows. He is a master of
the art of self-defense. He is
thirty-eight years old and has been
boxing twenty years.
By all the laws of the game he
ought to be retired to the old fire
size with the carpet slippers on his
feet, but here he is still champion
of the world and by all odds the
cagiest boxer in the ring.
