Nothing could be prettier for a rianc,

CLEANING STRAW HATS.

Y DUNG women who have been wear
" ing white sailor hats for the
past month are beginning to look
apprehensively at the stained and
soiled brims. It is possible, how
ever, to remove this stain. as anyone can
learn for herself.
First brush the hat very thoroughly
and carefully remove as much dry dust
as possible. Then add little ammonia
TO some water, and with brush and
some CASTLE soap scrub the stained brim
until 1t is clean. Care should be taken
not to break or bend the straw, but If
this precaution is observed the washing
will be found very beneficial.
II any stains do not prove amenable
to this treatment, apply little lemon
juice, which is wonderfully efficacious
for cleaning straw. When the last remedy
has been applied, lay the hat on a fiat
surface so that 1t may dry IN its origi-
nalshape. Do notattempt to wearitbefore
1t Is completely dry.

TODAY's MARKET REPORT.
Furnished by the Associated Press to
the State Journal
Chicago. M (.

Chicago. May 4.
Favorable wheat growing weather,
large northwestern receipts and lower
cables made the wheat market I'M
easy at the start today. July opened
a shade lower at 617sc or 1sc below
Saturdays close. 1t continued to fall
off on liberal selling, but Cudahy and
others went down to 6115c. when it re
acted. In a few moments it became
weak gain and fell off to 6454c.
Wheat gave no sign at the opening Of
having become as weary as many of
the traders of the predicted de
cline. 1t took half an hour
to consider how much lower it should
go on that trip and not until July got
down to Size did it feel satisfied with
the progress it had made. 1t turned
at the latter point and varied the pre-
vious mOnOtony by an advance Of &c,
getting as high as SIC about fOrty-hve
minutes after the opening. The weather
was generally clear in the northwest
and Liverpool was quoted I'D lower
The weeks shipments to Europe from
all exporting countries We're estimated
before the opening of the session from
data furnished by private cabIegrams
at about $500, 900 bushels, which was
thought here to be quite as much as
the people OF the importing countries
could eat in one week, although the for
eign authorities consider their require
ments to be considerably heavier than
that.
Corn opened unchanged at 295sc for
July then it weakened with wheat to
293sc.
Oats opened unchanged at 1870 and
in sympathy with wheat fell off to
1880 but reacted to 1880.
Hog products opened firmer at S8.15
for July pork, against s8.O27a at the
close Saturday, but the weakness in
wheat brought it down to $50. Lard
for July opened at S4921a, against S4.871a
Saturday, and ribs at S4.2755 against
s4.171a at the close Saturday.
