EASTER OPENING.
The First Suggestion of The Easter Hat
Breaks on the View.
Coexistent witlfthe gladsome Easter
tide Is the thought of personal adorn
ment, especially In the matter of attrac
tive headwear for ladles.
The year of 1908 offers no less beauti
ful designs in this line than preceding
years, in fact, the styles are rather In ad
vance in the art.
The Enter opening at Bartoot Bros,
store yesterday revealed a perfect dream
In tasty millinery and those gentlemen
teallted the largest sale of millinery
goods that they have ever enjoyed. The
display of ladles hats was most attrac
tive. They were the productions of Miss
Hurtt and the lady displayed admirable
taste In their construction.
Conspicuous In the display was a large
black picture hat. It was trimmed with
fruit and plumes a very rich and tasty"
specimen of the milliners art.
The predomlnent styles are hats trim-
sued either in green and white or white
- and violet. They are all gems which
, even the men may admire.
The windows presented an attractive
- appearance. They were arranged by the
MiMia Hnrti and Rowa. The lsdlm da-
" serve much Credit for their artlstlo taste
." Id dlanlivfn. the roods to so flne am
advantage. The arrangement Is very
pretty. : ' -
" , School Team Victors.
Quite a crowd gathered at Athletic
Park yesterday afternoon to witness the
. game between the High School team and
the Regulars, the former winning by a
seore ot 11 to t
. - The features of the game waa the
splendid pltohlng of Cannon Prettymaa
of the School team, and the heavy bat-
duplicating Randolph's old trick by
. swatting the ball over left field fence for
v Tour bases. . - . : '..
oping Into a good pitcher, as he Is left

Letter to Mark Disosway.
New Bern, N. C.
Dear Sir: You own several houses.
Tour reason for painting Devoe lead and
zinc should be several times as strong as
the man who owns but one.
Lead and oil was good enough paint
till the merits of zinc were found out. It
was profitable to paint lead and oil It
was then but not now.
The addition of zlno to lead makse
Devoe lead and ztnc last twice as long
and cost no morejoosts lees a trifle less,
not much. Lead and oil la mixed "by
hand; Devoe lead and zlno by . machin
ery. Might aa well make one's shirts by
hand as mix paints. Bay It costs 100 a
bouse to paint lead and oil; and It lasts
three yeara.
Say It costs the same for Devoe;whIch
lasts six years It will last ten years, In
favorable conditions, unless you want to
repaint to change the color.
The coats: lead and oil about $80 a
year; Devoe 1S probably lesa.
Tours truly,

A Box Sent by Z. V. Babbitt to His
Father.
Mr C M BabblltShas received a box of
Interest soavenlrs from his son, Z V
Babbitt, who Is In the government mili
tary service In the Philippine Islands. Ii
was placed In the" office of the revenue
collector.
The box contained some bolls of cot
ton which Is different from that raised
In this country. It 1b not so white but
Is of finer texture and longer fibre. Its
fibre has a silk like appearance.
There were other articles there taken
from the ocean which for beauty, dell
cateness of texture, ahd exactness of con
atructlon defies anything of human
workmanship. It Is said to be spun by a
small warm in the sea. It has some re
semblance to a spider's web but Is much
more Intricate and ha more beautiful
appearance.
There were also sevoml photographs
of military maneuvers and native scenes
which are very Interesting.
