The Long Hat Pin.


New York Letter to Philadelphia Public
Ledger.)
Must the long hat pin go?" 1t put
out mans eye and a woman's eye in
London, and the newspapers there have
started crusade against it. New York
might well follow suit, for several serious
accidents have resulted here from women
wearing them. A woman took "head.
err from her bicycle last spring and her
hat pin ran into her. Another woman
fell down, while coming out of big dry
goods store, in crowd few years age
and the long pins in her hat pierced hel
head.
In the big dry goods stores, however,
did not hear much about the long hat pin
as a murderous weapon, but they were
regarded as most essential requisite to
woman's dress. "When women quit
wearing hats, =" said a dealer, ''they will
stop wearing the long hat pins, and moi
before. They can't do without them. Hat
pins are absolutely necessary to hold OF
a woman's hat, particularly sailor, and
the number used depends upon the style
of the hat"

"Ete will ask how kept my trust, and

For few seconds nothing was heard
but his rapid breathing, and then she
spoke with low, passionate voice.

twice. Once he thanked his nurse for

"Mr. Arkwright was afraid lest some

"Well" and her voice had begun to
