T like to April fool our manager, perhaps,
but we don't April fool ourse'ves, be
cause that would be rather cruel.
I have outgrown the frolicsomenes
of April 1, of course; still I always look
carefully after my coat tails on that
day. And I greatly enjoy the motley
of those who are careless about their
parraental caudals during the Feast of
All Fools. The sight makes me feel
quite a boy again, for we youngsters
used to do that sort of thing in Phila
delphia thirty years ago. 0 yes, I did
It, too. I believe that some of the live
lier children of Philadelphia do it yet,
and have vitality and energy enough
left to laugh at the result, as a comio
paragrapher would say.
The most foolhardy of all the tricks
which I can recall in connection with
this carnival of jeering and nonsense
Is one that I have never seen played
Eince I was old enough to require two
digits to express my age. A bag and
two boys were the ingredients of the
trick, and it never failed to 6core a
great success on a quiet side street.
One boy got into the bag and the other
Stood by it waiting for the victim. The
rest of the boys who were "in on the
ground floor" were hiding in hallways
and doors and behind trucks across
the street. An innocent citizen came
W sauntering along. The boy who had
hold of the neck of the bag stopped
him with a "Say, mister, please give
toe a lift, will yer?" The innocent cit
izen usually acquiesced and took hold
of the bag to land it on the youngster's
shoulder. Just as he got it fairly in
his hands the boy in the bag suddenly
kicked and screamed. Innocent vic
tim, thinking it a bagful of wildcats
or hypnas. let go quickly and ran off
with palpitating heart and hair on end.
while all the boys across the street
pursued him with a villainous chorus
of "April fool 1 April fool! Wash
.your face and go to sclioU" or
something to the same effect. It
Talways seemed to me that the joke
was really on the boy in the bag;
he was sometimes dropped hastily
and heavily and was hurtand occa
sionally the April-fooled citizen gave
him a thrashing besides for being too
funny. But it was an effective trick.
and often an old codger lingered in the
shadow on the opposite pavement to
witness and enjoy the sport. You have

than that of the man whoso blood was
frozen in his heart by the unexpected
scream emitted by the occupant of the

fOMETIlIES IT GIVES PLEASURE TO OTHERS.
It doesn't seem right that the firs
flay of a month so full of pretty things
j is April is should be inseparably con
w nectcd in our minds with empty ard
dilapidated pocketbooks with string
in d-small-boy attachments, di&rep
ntable hats with bricks underneath
them, long streamers hanging from
l nnsuspecting coattails, door bells
rung by invisible hands, and all the
other dear old pleasantries that we
know by heart. And we should prob.

perhaps bear transplanting here, and

TO LESSEN THE DEVTL'S FOOLS.
I am abked for a sentiment concern
ing April Fool's day and pause in the
whirl and rush of a righteous warfare
to say that in my opinion time is far
too valuable and important a factor
for a moment to be lost in foolish jest
ing or senseless joking. The world,
especially in these days, is in far too
critical and dangerous a position, so
cially and religiously, to allow of a
man with average sense to saj' noth
ing of those who have consecrated
brains to indulge in any other than
profitable and upright intercourse.
It is a personal relief to me to feel
that in our ranks seventeen hundred
officers and sixteen thousand unpaid
local workers will be pushing with
might and main of soul an enterprise
which upholds sincerity and the ne
cessity of lessening the devil's fools.
Ballington Booth.
A CHA3IPI0X FOR THE DAT.
Before stating what jokes seem to
me timely, and enjc&abJe ior this
S&-
" WIPE DE FLOOB WID niil."
April Fool's day, I cannot resist th
temptation to say that I think the
spirit of the holiday itself hat always
been singularly misunderstocd. The
day is really to be deemed a pause in
time's serious flight, when folly could
with propriety travesty wisdom, and
set the world smiling. As it is, the
first of April has come to be deemed a
nuisance, wheu its observance is not
don away with entirely. April Fool's
day is sadly in need of soue one to
champion it and xestoi e it to its right
ful place in the calendar. It is not
simply the day on which the boys and
girls may make fools of their elders
with impunity. I suspect that there
was a time when it was regarded
rightly, far away as that time seems
to us now. Then the old people put
aside their serious looks and grew
younger instead of older.
If it takes a wise man to be a fool,
surely April first is the feast day
of the saircs. when thev can act on
Shakcspsare's admonition: "Mingle a
little folly with your wisdom."
As for those jokes which seem to mi
good and appropriate to the dav it
should always be understood that the
element of surprise is the essential
thing. Novelty is wit. Jokes must not
bo cruel pranks, otherwise the day
would ba given up to a general hazing
of everybody. The most successful of
April Fool jokes would be to surprise
one's friends by a change of character.
What a rare joke it would be for the
confirmed miser to bestow a dowry
upon that niece of his who needs only
a little money to marry the lad of her
choice. If all the cranks would put
rside their hobbies for a day, what fun
it would be for the rest of us.
This kind of joke can be carried out
ad finitum and would never fail to bo
successful. Let the tippler remain
sober to-day just as a joke. The skin
flint employer can have a lark with
his clerk by granting that increase of
salary that has been talked about so
long. Let the clergyman I say it
reverently preach a sermon only an
hour long to-day instead of one of
four hours' duration. I am convinced
that the idea would meet with success.
People too old for jokes on April
Fool's day? Xouscnc. Even the gray
heads can have their joke. The repro
bate roue can go to church this morn
ing and explain that it is all a joke on
his part. Many a man is ashamed to do
a good thing because it is so unusual
with him that it would give him un
pleasant prominence. But he can do
it to-day and escape with the admis
sion that it is his April fool joke. I
am glad the day comes on Sunday this
year. B. Gillax.

Easter Week and Its Glories of
Gown and Hat and "Fixings."
The Duchess of Washington Square and
Her Neighbors The Apotheosis eC
the Tailor-Made" Spring
. Boaneta and Jackets.
COPYRIGHT. 18W.1
If I am asked to show a visiting
friend the smartest houses in New
York I straightway hire a democratic
cab and proceed to "do" Fifth avenue
north from Madison square. The gilt
and glitter and splendor of the pano
rama strike her as I show her the
brownstonc packing boxes of the dead
and gone Vanderbilts and recite glibly
as a verger in an English church how
the old Commodore paid four hundred
thousand dolldrs for a ramshackle green
house and the land upon which it stood.
I talk to her of the Astor family feud as
we pass tho LTotel Waldorf, whoso
blank wall is the biggest and costliest
"spite fence" in all Christendom. I
point out the Coleman Drayton house,
not large but exquisitely beautiful. I
speak of the Goelet tapestries and of
the wondrous art treasures of "Willie"
Vanderbilt. At the corner of Fifty
seventh street, I point to the late Mrs.
W.C. Whitney's home.beautiful and sim
ple, and describe its broad hall and ex
quisite ballroom; and the huge and
ugly pile that Cornelius Vanderbilt has
just completed. I tell of the wonder
ful wood carvings in C. P. Hunting
ton's equally big and ugly house op
posite, and how a sculptor friend of
mine, Mr. Hill, worked for months
upon these poems in wood relief. Then
I pause at tho green entrance to our
wonderful park, wave my hand negli
gently, as if I owned all these splen
dors, at the roofs beyond and tell of
tho Tiffany house and the Villard
houses on Madison avenue, and
"These are the real swellest of the
swells," my visitors will then say,
with a frank sigh of satisfaction if
CHE WALKS
she's from tha west, with a mental
reservation of superiority to mere
wealth and with precise epithet if from
Boston.
This is my opportunity. It never
fails me. and I never fail it.
"Oh, dear, no'." I say. "You asked
for the smartest houses, and here they
are. But the most exclusive society, a
society which prides itself upon ex
tension rather than intension of wealth
this phrase always pleases the Bos
tonians is found mainly at the other
end of the avenue, near Washington
square. We will not drive there. There
is nothing to see. The houses are all
plain and square and old fashioned.
But perhaps "
"Oh, will you, really?"
And so we went to descend from
generalities to particulars my latest
visitor and myself; she. from Marl
borough street, in the city of the sacred
codfish, quite at home among the
stately old houses in the north sido of
Washington square, and quite in har
mony with the white and gold furnish
ings of the room we entered, and tho
subdued but tasteful costumes of their
occupants, robed for Easter Tuesday
rejoicings.
The duchess of Washington square;
my duchess for there are many of
them, on the square and lower Tifth
avenue and the streets adjacent was
reared and is versed in the school of
lace. Indeed, were I to begin gener
alizing again. I should say that a very
aristocratic gathering of New York
ladies would be chiefly noticeable by
the lace of the elder ones and the "tail
or mades" of the younger. My hos
tess' white hair was coiled high upon
her head and fell in wavy ripples
down her temples, and her gown was
of black, with a touch of heliotrope by
way of vivacity, and from every van
tage point of collar and elbow and hem
of -waist fell such wonderful yellow (
lace as thoe who aren't of "the old
families, my dear," may sigh for, but
never gain. And the younger ladies
who received, with her wore house
gowns after their several fashions, and
these, with the shifting colors of the
collars raiment, made up a picture of
delightful and sincere grace.
There was one cxqulce creature
who stood close to one of the white
painted Corinthian pillars which
marked off the drawing-room from the
music-room beyond, as if she knew
that the contrast heightened the effect
of her dark beauty. She was tall and
Junoesque. Her eyes were large and
full and humid and appealing, and mis
chievous, and pathetic, and a hundred
other things all at once, and her hat,
which she did not remove, was a wide
brimmed felt, with its huge black
plume against the white pillar, and her
.cown walda3nij)Xl?cclfit1.a4 J
Ihere was out one touch or color in the
whole picture, that of & huge bunch of
violets.
There was a costume of dull colors,
harmoniously set, worn by another tall
brunette, a mulberry-colored cloth with,
a plain skirt and jacket back, opening1
iover a blouse front of cream colored
6atin, and trimmed with a profusion of
knots and bowre and kickshaws of
watered-black silk ribbon. Indeed, of
'this old-fashioned material there was
everywhere profusion, due no doubt to
a decent regard for British example.
The same lugubrious trimming was
'used with good effect upon a close-fitting
tailor gown of iron gray with
jacket back and blouse front of vieux
.rose satin.
The jacket or half jacket is almost
universal this spring. It is pretty, chic
and convenient. It gives to the figure,
seen from behind, a business-like trim
ness of effect that is wonderfully soft
ened when the blouse front comes into
view. It is tho compromise of the
womanly desire for form and fabric at
once.
I would not like to say of what
heterodoxies of corseting the "tailor
made" has been the cause. I'm in
clined to think that between the tail
,or's ideal of twenty-two inches for
woman's waist and the artist's ideal of
twenty-eight, the former comes much,
nearer realization.
It is a pleasure always to look at
new gowns; and there is a double
pleasure in having them this Easter
week when spring is here and summer
is at nana, and we realize max soon
there will be no more wearing of heavy
wraps. Nothing 60 quickly spoils the
airy jauntines3 of a pair of balloon
sleeves as the pressure of a heavy wrap.
The j-oung men of New York have be
come quite proficient in the art, after
helping a lady d&n her cloak, of
smoothing down the lapels of the dress
beneath and stowing away the dress
sleeves to best advantage within the
sleeves of the coat. But the tenderest
care will not prevent damage and
and besides this kind pf care seems a
HT BEAUTT.
trifle intimate for casuaTacqualhtance.
A decent regard for British example
it must be also which has made so
popular a style cf trimming which can
hardly be called by any other name
than bib. Just whv a sauare or pointed
shield of knife plaits reaching to the
bosom and edged with a fold of yellow
lace should be considered beautiful I
cannot understand. The lace hangs
away from the figure much like that
hideosity, a mintel lambrequin, from J
the wall beneath it, and gives to tho
figure a peculiar chopped off appear
ance, anything but ocbthetically satis- j
factory. Better are the equally Brit
ish devices of sequin trimming and of
full lace corsages, held in place by
satin waist ribbons.
British, tor, was a costume of black
moire antique, with full sleeves and
double basques, over a vest of sago
green cloth, with largo steel buttons, a
steel buckle for the waistband and
two others to unite themoireand cloth
portions of a composite collar. The
plain hanging skirt was of the cloth. I
think it rather an original idea to use
the silk for tho coat and the rough
cloth for the vest. At any rate the ef-
feet was good. It was distinctly an
out-door gown and such a delightful
contrast to the house dress of one of
the receiving matrons, a study in black
and white, the bodice of black satin
brocaded in white, with full sleeves of
white satin, the cuffs whereof were
trimmed with tiny ruches of black rib
bon. A little vest of tho black satin
had at each side an insertion band of
black ribbon and the side panels of
white satin were barred across in the
Bame theatric manner.
