calls for t when he gets there on his wheel.
We did this with both OF the 6ebhards. Mr.
and Mrs. G. both lost their hats in one OF
those cycling tours of theirs. The last we
sent them We're precisely alike in style and
as small as we could obtain. The lady's
matched q blue cycling suit, but Mr. Geb-
hard's was tan cloth.
LAS al! people do not go cycling III june
i VIII tell you of the new drrbies. We
sse one this year that was brought out by

tapering crown. Its height is five and Iive-

is two and two-eighth inches wide and
narrower according to the shoulders OF the

wore it in London. and American tourists
have worn il in Paris and Livcrpool-and
in New York. Many of our men now arriv-

ami put it in the hat.
''The hat fastener is the same old cord,
but instead of bar there is il slip button.
Few men like to wear a string to their
hats. They can't get rid of their early
recollections OF wearing Il string when
they were little tads and could not keep
their hats on without it. We do sell a
few brightly colored cords, but these are
to college boys and enthusiastic clubnen.
