The woman with a small income really suffers at this time of year, if with the small ineome she has a keen love for dress, for tite shops are nevet so tempting as in the spring, when ev- ery', detail of dress seems more attrae- tive than at any other time of year, partly. on acconnt of the colorings and materials that ;kern so suited to the bright ininshine and warm weather. A spring hat is 4 necessity. With all the determination possible to economize most strictly, the winter hat not only looks badly but is uncomfortable, - so that' a change must be maee when once a, higher record of the thermometer is registered and the wearing of winter clothes becomes impossible, The first hats that ar exhibited by those °stab- liehmente thot cater to the Southern re- sort trade are always high priced - quite too high priced for the majority of women. Then at the department stores are exhibited the expensive Mod- els also, but with the addition 'of a large stock of inexpensive onos and quantities of Untrimmed shapes. Here is a dongerous qtticksand. The comPaa- atively low test of the "shape" aaa ale so the low price of many of the trim- mings appeal irresistibly to the woman who has a taste for millinery and has beeo eredited by admiring friends With great skill in making her own hats. She natesto in at least two or three of these bargains with their ticeeMpanyben trine. raings and does' not realize at the mom- ent that the stun total she'has paid ex- ceeds what the cost, of on already made ana smarter hat will amount to. It is a. mistake to buy the spring hat too early, wheo evety penny has to be eounted. The fashions in• hats change :so often that before there is a °bane° to wear it another quite different shape will be far more fashionable. Oh the other hand, if there is a hat that is be. coming And stnart at any reasonable priee to he found in adVance of the sett - seen it is a good inVestment, alid there ie nothing more delightful than to be pessessed of a sreart hat when the wea- ther suddenly turns warm. grwimwriwwwwwWw "HEADS ARE WORN SMALLER."

Toronto, March 27. -The legal profese siott in Toronto, is discussing withgreat interest the novel legislation intreduced into the Senate a New York State. which provides that anyone who has inade a will may go befom the Surro- gate Court and have the validity of his will proved before his death, The act provides for the notifying of 'the heirs at lam and the next of kin to ap- pear before the court and. take any ob. jeetions on the score of mental incap- acity or undue influence. • N. W. Hoyle, E. C., prineipal of the Osgoode Hall law school, is of the opin- ion that while in the States frequent at- tempts to break wills have driveo the legislators to enact some math kw, in Canada there is not the necessity for it. "I hare no doubt that if the Legis- lature sow fie to pass some such legis- lation it would. be valuable," he said, "but here there is not the necessity leo it that there is in the States." Wright, K. t.!., of Ayleswortie Wright, Moss Thompson, declared that such legislation would be laughed at- and would never be pasted here. "A will," he said, "is waste paper till tne testator dies. You can't prove 'waste pa- per." Some of the profession strongly favor it. r•••••=••••...1.41,410.1*,...`•1 LORNE PARK. Popular Sumper.Resort Sold to Tor- onto Real Estate Dealer. .
