TAKE YOUR HAT OFF.

How nice it would be IN going into
church, or any public entertainment,
to see the ladies take off their hats 30
that the gentlemen could see the
speaker or entertainment without cran>
ing his neck or rubbering it so nard
to see over large hat or plume.
It not only gives them the neck ache,
but the head ache.
We have seen people get up from
behind q great sun obscurer and take
seat elsewhere and then look in
front and find another sun shade
several seats ahead of them and would
change again in order to get view of
the speaker or the doings on the
stage.
When persons have to do this the
beauty of the bonnets and hats are no
longer taken into consideration and
instead of complimenting their
beauty, they deride them and some
times think undoubtedly the wearer
should be notified to take eff her hat.
The hair can be so arranged to
make the head look just as nice
when the hat is of, and sometimes
nicer. Let the ladies set the example
and see how quickly all will follow.
Our headers do not need any hats
or caps to make them look nice. In
fact we give them nice clean coat of
pant and send them adrift to take
care of themselves and they do it,
don't you forget it. This is the last
call Oh the Hodge, Craver and Har-
vester King headers. IfYou want
one you will have to leave your order

We are delivering headers now
every day all over the country. We
want you to have one go that you and
your wife will be pleased during bar
vest by having large set of men on |
