“Tie On Your Bonnets" For Easter Day Parade.

If the weather man can be depended upon there will be ho necessity to “tie” your bonnets onz Just the hat pins in general use will be sufficient to hold them in place for the Easter day exhibition. Fair weather, much warmer, is the reasonable expectation and this year’s lid creations will be worn without danger of getting them frostbitten or water drenched. Of course, “there’s many a slip twixt the cup and the lip,” and there may be many a slip between the way things look to the weatherman on Thursday and the things that actually occur on Sunday, but the prospect will probably cause many to get busy during the last buying days befdre Easter and do all in their power to .bankrupt father and keep his nose to the grindstone during the balance of the year to break even. If there is any one thing more than another that cuts down the balance it is the purchase of the Easter supply of millinery and other toggery that has its reward in making men regard women as the “dearest” things on earth. In the meantime the average father is having his last year’s suit repressed and wondering whether it will last until the millinery bills are all paid.
