"Speilbinding" is the happy name
given to the platform speaking which
plays such an important part in every
campaign. The national chairman de
termines who shall be the stars in this
department. An ex-president is most
in demand, a speaker or an ex-spealler
comes next as rule, and senators and
representatives are invited to.speak in
the order of their usefulness. One
speech by an ex-Dresident is worth half
a dozen efforts by other men, though
they may be more logical and eloquent
The candidate himself, when an ora
tor, will draw greater crowds than any
body else. but if he is wise he will let
the national committee arrange his itin-
erary and schedule. Headquarters are
always overrun with volunteers for the
stump; the star, or man with repu-
tation, waits to be invited or urged.
Most of the lesser men are laborers for
hire. but others are ambitious to make
reputation as stepping stone to po-
litical Office. and some are intensely in
earnest and eager to be useful to their
party, h, 81.

the expenses of spellbinders, unless
they insist on paying their own way.

USE FOR OLD STRAW HATS.
Cut Out the Crowns and Put on Wire
Frame for Lamp
Shades.

Often we find that old straw hats are
subjects of grave consideration. Many
of them, we hear it said, are too good
to be thrown away, too fanciful to be
given to the poor and yet not quite
modish enough to tempt their owners
into trimming them up for another
season. This then, is the time when it
is best TO transform them into lamp
shades. Most charming as lamp shades
they become, especially for summer
houses and verandas, says the Wash
ington Star.
To carry out the scheme is a simple
matter. Leghorns or very large gar
den hats Of rough straw are the most
desirable. First should the top of the
crown be cut out when already, as can
be imagined, the hat will assume some-
what the shape of lamp shade. I'M
derneath it should then be wired up
and down as well as about the top and
bottom, that it may be held in shape
and bent gracefully, for above all else
these shades must have a free, foppy
appearance. They do not look well II

mostly of artificial flowers and grasses
which many women have on hand from
hats of preceding summers. Long,
deep-green grasses are usually hung
about the lower edge as a fringe. If,
however, the edges a-e not in good
condition IL looks very well TO put
about them a ruff of pinl<ed-out taffeta
ribbon, either to match or contrast
with the color of the straw. A leg
horn for instance, would be most ef- !
fective with a grass green ruff about
the edges and few large red poppies
scattered over its surface. Sometimes
flowers that one has in the house are
faded. but even then their colors can
be intensified by painting them afresh
with either tapestry dyes or water
colors. Many old straws can also be
helped by touching them up ju-
On the other hand. so pretty are
these straw lamp shades that il is
quite worth while to buy the hats,
should they not be forthcoming in any
,ther way. Late in the season many
decorative ones are sold at remarka-
ply low prices. To be effective they
ihould always be large. Deep yellow
mes of rough straw trimmed with but
groups and grasses are unusually
,retty and cast a golden glow when
