Four or five yards of the softest messaline or chif- fon is wrapped two or three times about the waist, extending above the normal waist line and below to the hips. The ends of the scarf-girdle are drawn up and weighted with tassels or ornaments. Such a girdle is shown in the gown pictured here.

ANAAANNAAAANS AAAAA spring millinery for children the most pleasing that has for many seasons. A pretty example of the Corday hat is shown in the picture. It will be noticed that the puffed crown is rath- er small, and that the ribbon bow is wired and is in effect an ornamant fin- ished with small bows and flowers, be- longing to those classed as “stick- ups” by milliners. Besides these shapes, with which we are familiar, for children, there are many others in hemp, and other braids that are novel. They are con- siderably like the shape made for | Brown-ups, and look very “cunning” ! for the little people, being minaty of some of the simpler shapes which grown people wear.

We are selling jet tiaras copied from a | diamond tiara belonging to the Czar ina of Russia, and long jet chains Whitby jet is used most, being more | substantial than the French kind. Jet | is not expensive, and is not likely at | present to rise in price, but one can | pay as much as $25 for a chain of this | material.” Jet is to be used a great |deal in dress trimmings, it is stated, 'and consequently black jewelry and ,ornaments are worn to match. One | 1arge city firm is preparing thousands 'of jet ornaments. Some of these are in slab form, others in bell shape.— 1 London Times. Fabric Flowers.

Laboring men and mechanics are finding rents getting too high for them. And some- thing must be done quickly to retain these, who are the real foundation of all prosperous communities. And what Lakeland so “needs” Lakeland wants. And what the city wants, her men, women and children ‘“need.” Lakeland’s advantages are quite equal to those of the ecarlier “Middle West” towns.
