THE GRADY COUNTY PROGRESS, CAIRO, GEORGIA,
His Vow Came to an Anil-Climax.
A much-bearded man rambled into a
barber shop and submitted to a shave,
a haircut, a shampoo, a singe, a mas
sage and everything else the barber
could think of,, at the same time listen
ing with keenest enjoyment to tho
tousorlalist's remarks about ail thinga
on earth and in the waterB under tho
earth. So long before that he had for
gotten the gentleman's name and
what office lie was running for the old'
man had vowed never to be shaved or
shorn until So-and-So was elected.
When ho at last awoke to a realization
that nobody cared if he never shaved
he concluded to shave Just to show 'em
that he didn’t care whether thoy cared
or not.—Kansas City Star,

BECK SCENE ON WRECKED VANDERBILT YACHT
Si
O NE of the best of the high-side hats
for Bprlng is shown in the illus
tration given here. It was designed
for one of those fortunate residents of
the north who anticipate the coming
of spring and go to meet it in southern
climes, ft is all new, in outline and
poise on the head and in character of
trimming. It’.presages a season of
gayly trimmed millinery, bright with
flowers and ribbons and In keeping
with the quaint flounced taffetas, the
airy scarves and fancy parasols—all
of them intensely feminine. This new
apparel is the garb of the light heart
ed, or at any rate is designed to make
its wearers look that way. Hats are
*orn at a jaunty, not to say rakish
angle. They are immensely chic and
full of “go.” . It is evident that we are
.emerging from the vogue of the lan
guid styles, and the chances are we
shall become well-set-up and even mili
tary looking in our street garb, by the
time the northern spring has really
arrived.
The charming hat shown is not an
extreme of the new idea. It is of hemp
braid in a rose color, with a soft
crown of the braid. Crowns, by the
way, are made of either braids or fab
rics. Many hats for spring will have
braid brims and crowns of silk or
satin or.other fabrics. When braid is
used it is often put on in the manner
of a fabric, as in the hat pictured.
Here a plateau of braid is draped in
to a low puffed crown. TJie lift in
the brim at the left makes opportunity
for trimming. Trimming means, about
nine times out of ten, either flowers or
ribbon or both; nearly always both.
But one must not neglect to mention
malines and jet. These two are big
features of the coming styles, and thd
combination is flower trimmed.
Feathers are not neglected but are
used with flowers. Everything be
tokens a season of gay millinery. It
is a natural reaction, for the vogue of
black velvet hats has made one won
der where all the velvet came from.
In the model shown the roses are in
the natural rose shades with rather
light green foliage. The loops and
knot are of moire ribbon in a deeper
rose shade.
The poi3e of the hat may be taken
as an example of the way in which
many shapes are to be worn. This
poise has been considered in making
the shapes.
Many hats designed for southern
tourists show a curious mixture of
materials. Usually those worn only
for summer or winter are not put to
gether on the same hat. But hats of
mallne and flitter jet are made up
with dome velvet in the body and
trimmed with flowers. Lace hats,
flower trimmed, have narrow borders
of fur. That is, the hat is made adapt
able to any kind of weather. Tourists
sometimes find a variety in weather,
as in other things, awaiting them, so
theBe hats of strange mixings will
prove useful.,

said: "Marla, my dear, do you real

wedding? We ought to celebrate the
occasion somehow, don’t you think?”
And she said: “Hank, my darling, I
know it. Been thinking, about it all

PRACTICAL BLOUSE
IN INDIA LINEN
FOR DAILY WEAR
of the fittest in blouses for daily wear.
Very narrow insertions, very narrow
tucks, and a sparing use of fine qm-
broidery mark the best of these
waists. They, are exceptionally re
fined looking. It is a mistake to se
lect wide laces and big patterns in
embroidery for blouseB.
The panel at the center of the front’
is a section cut from a wide flouncing.
Short lengths of fine flouncings are to
be had Very cheap in price. Panels cut
from them are easily set in because of
the narrow insertions.
One of the strong points among the
virtues of these waists is the ease with
which they may be washed and
ironed. For traveling it is best to make
them with separate collars, because
the collars become soiled after a day’s
wear, while the waist will stand three
days.
Collars of all-over lace, or of- Valen
ciennes or Cluny insertions or cro
cheted in one piece, made separately
and boned or wired, may be washed
and worn without ironing. It is easy
to smooth the lace with tlife Anger
just before the collar is entirely dry.
They fit snugly about the neck. This
is a convenience the tourist will ap
preciate. It is troublesome to carry
many clotheB on a journey.

New Chiffon Blouse.
There are many new shirtwaists in
the shops, but the favorite one is of
white chiffon cloth, the thin, transpar
ent fabric that is about twice as thick
as the ordinary chiffon.
The waist is made simply. It has a
broad yoke across the hack, to which
the material is gathered, and loose
sleeves that end in widfe turnover cuffs
at the wrists. The fronts are also With

A new net blouse has two thick

with ordinary pearl buttons as rarge
as a twenty-five-cent piece.* The turn
over cuffs are fastened with two of
these buttons used as links. They
are joined by strands of silk cord.
