If Any Man, or Weman Either. Cemes te Yeu Talking About
Times, Answer Him With
Idleness Is Net the Highest
Type of a Gentleman
In our own city there are many splendid
men of means who are busy every day,
cheerfully giving their time and strength te
worthy efforts te promote secular and
religious education and enterprises that
tend te geed citizenship and sterling
patriotism.
But there is also another set of idle
people te whom idleness is the mother of
poverty and the full brother te dishonesty
and thievery.
The writers friend, Henry Drummond,
said te me, "Build a boy of sound timber and
he will weather every obstacle."

Copies of New Paris Hats in
the New Paris Celer
Havana Brown
Shades of brown! say the Paris medistes.
"Shades of brown," s!ty our milliners.
Particularly the golden warmth of Havana brown. But
also the ruddier cocoa shades, the sober tetc de negre, seal, bronze,
sable, the lovely nut browns and the varied tones of tortoise
shell.
... fara 1IS done a clever thing in striking the keynote for
this symphony of browns.
Among them all there is one for every type of hair and
complexion.
It is astonishing hew differently the same shade expresses
itself in different materials.
In this collection of new millinery suggested by Paris will
be found the most delightful new brown hats in varied weaves
of straw, in silk crepe, in ribbon; and in the very shupes that
the French city is talking of at this moment.
They are exceedingly smart. And they are priced from
