They were as common a an organ In a negro house, They .are shipped to Richmond, Baltimore, and Washington. The hunters get eight cents for them and the merchants eighteen. They set dogs Into the broomsedge patches and gunners stand about and shoot them as they sally out. Small boys capture scores of them In traps. When big snows come they club them and beat them down with brashes. Lt me," says Mr. Dorsett, "the rabbit enterprise Is a giant in my county." s- Mr. Samuel Stein, of New York, is engaged in selling women's hats all over this mighty nation. The two kinks of this magic refinement are "ready to wear"' and "fancies," or those ready to trim. He says that about the same demands are made at all points. As a whole, the fancy hata salt better than theae ready to wear. The reason of this . is that women In country towns don't want hats like those of any other wo Jnen. , Every one of them wants some thing different from any other woman. In large cities this cuta no figure. In such places, he, says, he has sold two or three hundred, tfsaen hats ready to wear of the pame kind. For the spring lurbsns ara. very popular; also "baby kats," which latter means adult hats, vnme of them 18 inches in -diameter. The winter styles demand aome feath ers, the spring styles none. . Ribbons - tnd flowers will do the business for the aprll hats. This falling oft of feath rs, says Mr. Stein, Is due partly to . eonomy and part 4o the humane sen timent against the destruction of birds A'bleh Is becoming so prevalent. Of 'ourse the ostrich is not helped by the ' lentlinent. The wholesale price of hats Iverage from $12 to $15 per dosen. A sat which sells wholesale at $3 costs the consumer, when all Is told, $5. There Is a better profit for dealers In . these average hata than In any other, ; and the women like them better, be- ; tause they can afford to have two or three hats of different styles In a sea son. The chiffon and hatr-brald com binations: are the leading styles, for pring. all over' the country, judging !rom the present outlook and from the Paris reports, Mr. P.. Torrence, f Gastonla, waa speculating upon the advantages and disadvantages of the marriage state. Is easy to see," he said, "how lutckly the world loses Interest In a man when he gets married. So long as he Is single he is like the hero In a novel, surrounded by all sorts of uncertainties; but let him get married and the story Is closed. His pace Is fixed. Every knows where his home la. There cannot arise eny sensation from him. And perhaps U Is partly because he loses Interest In the world. He realises that he Is a ship at perpet ual anchor and he quits hla dreaming and goes after the facts." , ; ;::- ,::.:: .:-j:-':'s . ., - -Mr. Prank O.
