For the last five lines have been ered by vears the Harriman adding to their equipment, and it is announced that during that thime the of $60,000,000 has been expended new equipment, or $40,000 for every work day in that perfod. This sum was spent on 1194 locomotives and 40,196 new freight cars, and the new order is in for 14,000 freight cars, equal to 20 per cent of the present equipment The increase in traffic from June 30, 1902, to what it will probably be on June 30 of this vear is an interesting study. Naturally the disaster of last April had a great deal to do with the increase in the volume of business, but 2ll railroad men say that the entire State is growing and this is due to the fact that many of the large heldings are being cut up end that the people are just entering upon a real growt of population.

At Hale’s—Is Very Attractive Of all the things that women wear, a stylish and becoming Hat is the most important part of their attire. The new Spring styles are fascinating and striking—the long ribbon streamers that drape from the hat and fall carelessly over the shoulders are a prominent feature of some of this season’s models. Leghorn is a most popular material, and bright summer, true-to-nature roses and other flowers, malines and ribbons form the principal trimmings. The new Airship is a stylish and distinctive hat to wear with a tailor-made suit. Large-headed pins of a harmonizing shade with the trimmings, novel ribbon conceits, and the semi-transparent braid called Pytoxylin, have given a wide range for effects entirely new and striking. The beauty, delightful blends of color, originality and graceful shapes of these models will please you. Tt will interest you to know who originated these Parisian hats. Here are the names of some of the designers: Mme. Germaine, Maison L/ewis. Mme. Heitz Boyer and Paul Virot and Berthe. There are many different styles—all pretty and becoming—models to suit every complexion. Visit Hale’s Millinery Depart- ment tomorrow and see these new Spring creations.
