On the night Of the 2Gth burglars broke into
the Kings County tN.Y.) Pcnitentiary and rob-
bed the safe of the shoe shop of $1,000, which
was brought there on the 25th to pay off the

The fashion in head gear for men and
boys has undergone great change
during the last thirty years. Now caps
OF cloth are rarely seen except on men
in uniform or on foreign arrivals, and
the silk hat is affected only by staid
citizens Of middle or mature age. The
felt hat has usurped the place of both
these head coverings for young and old,
except when some state occasion de-
mands the traditional "stoyepipe " and
there are few wearers of these who
knew their composition Once, when
the "beayer' hat was actually beaver
skin fashioned into hat, the name was
appropriate. Subsequent improve
ments reduced the price of "beayers''
by changing the material, which be
came beaver fur sometimes cheaper
fur attached by a glue or cement to Il
bat body of felt Still later the fur was
replaced by a silk plush, glued on to a
felt form or body. But of late years
even the felt body has been discarded
for one of coarse muslin or canvas,
stepped in the same stiffening liquor
used on the felt body shellac dissolved
in alcohol-and received the outer GOV
ering of silk plush by the melting of
the lac glue by means of a hot iron.

A New Use for Errs

Every one IS familiar with the value
of the yelk Of an egg as a hair wash
but perhaps may not be aware of it's
virtue in clothing cleansing. Beaten
up with alcohol, eau de cologne. or
ether, like OK gall, it keeps better and
is more powerful; or in simpler cases,
it may be used alone, Or merely mixed
with water to be rubbed on with fan
mel, for removing from colored materi-
ais the stains Of mud, or of coffee and
chocolate, when prepared with milk
It's frequently applied to velvet col
lars and cuffs, etc, and proves a cleans
er. as well as spot extractor. When
it has done its work it is washed with
soap. and the material tborouobln
rinsed in pure water. Egg has a spec-
tally good effect on those anpoTinr
patches of wheel grease belopping -
the compound class of stains, as tbev
represent mixture Of stale grease iron
and other substances.
