The New Styles in Millinery.

The hats and bonnets for the season
are very picturesque, and while some
are not very different from those OF a
year ago the slight changes make tor
beauty and ':becomingness." Ihe
velvet toque of immense size IS among
the new styles for the season, but IT'S
tendency is to dip over the eyes, while
the chief charm OF last seasons toque
was that it was frame for the face
and displayed the pompadour 70 Its
last fully hair. A rather pretty new
style in toques has low crown, a
r. ling brin, and while coming further
over the forehead than last years

Of the front, making place for big

She found frog crop easy to raise,

Tobacco Chewing rluIe.

Balaam's donkey is doubtless the
only one that ever spoke to man,
but it seems that there are some
trying to initiate mans ways. A
Fayette county farmer has one OF
his stalled in a tobacco barn, where
it often CHANGED that scraps OF
soothing weeds got into his rations.
Perhaps he regarded it as a kind
of sauce; anyhow, he finally became
addicted to it, like his master, and
now he cant do without it. If he
fails to get his mornings chew it is
useless to harness him to anything;
he will not bulge peg-his nc
means no. His master knows what
the trouble is; he goes down in his
pocket, fishes up his own twist and
makes peace offering. The old
mule almost laughs as he rolls the
quid into his cheek and proceeds to
his work as meekly as d lambkin.
His master claims that Silas is as
good judge of a "chaw" as OF
oats. Winchester Democrat.

Clever Little Stories.

a new postoAice was established
IN a small western village and a
native was appointed postmaster.
After awhile complaint we're made
that no mail was sent out from the
office, and an inspector was sent to
inquire into the matter. He called
upon the postmaster and asked why
no mail had been sent out. The
postmaster pointed to a big and
nearly empty mailbag hanging up
in corner, and said: We'll, ain
sent it out cause the bag amt no,
where nigh full! yeti"
