them out of one faster than Lou Dillon can trot. For instance, say the shopper picks up a beauty of hat all pale blue and white and sets 1t on her pom padour with care. Then she looks in the glass and wonders if there ever was anything more stylish looking than she is at that moment.
 alone. Your nose is entirely too sharp for that" says she, carelessly, and takes 1t off.
 Nose too sharp''-that is an insult. The shopper looks at her Grecian fea- ture admiringly and regards the milliner with resentment.
 Directly she, spies another beautiful model. It is very smart and the shade of its trimming Is that aubergine, this year so fashionable. She sets 1t on with pat here and a touch there and re- gards the result with a purely artistic pleasure, quite aside from personal van ity.
 The tnilliner wanders by again, 'I wouldn't advise you to wear that shade she says sweetly; "only women with the fairest complexions can afford to patron ize it.''
 And she had thought her complexion was looking so we'll.
 Then a new shape catches her eye. It is made of brown and 1t has a long and beautiful ostrich plume wound around it where 1t will be most conspicuous. At last she has found her ideal hat. She puts it on and adjusts it with hands that touch 1t gently. as if 1t were some- thing that would break if handled rough ly. Then again the glass is consulted. Now, if her innermost thoughts were re- vealed they would be like this: Well. I do look handsome. There's an air of dis tinction about me that this sort of head wear exactly sets off would like to buy this, but if do so many persons will turn around on the street to look after me that it will be embarrassing. Still I might as well ask the price, anyway"

COMPANIES WILL NOT GO.
Montgomery Military Cannot Accept
 Jacksonville Invitation.

Jacksonville Invitation.
 Neither of the crack infantry companies of Montgomery will attend the military exercises at Jacksonville, Fla in which the entire National Guard of Alabama has been invited to participate. by Gen. Clifford Foster, Adjutant General of the Florida State Troops.
 Adjutant General W. W. Brandon of Alabama received the invitation effect Fri day. The invitation states that Military Day will be feature of the Jacksonville Trades Carnival and on this day, Novem- Der 1, a number of military companies will contest for valuable prizes offered by the Fair Association.
 Neither the Montgomery Blues nor the Montgomery Greys will attend. At the last State Fair these companies swept all the other commands of the National Guard before them in prize drill. the Greys taking first honor and the Blues second
 Capt S. H. Roberts of the Greys said yesterday that the notice was so short and the particulars so indefinitely stated that he did not think his company would consider participating in the exercises.
 Capt. E. F. Baber Jr, of the Blues said that the Montgomery companies would naturally appear at a disadvantage in Jacksonville if they undertook to enter the drill, as the Florida companies had been preparing for the event some time and neither of the Montgomery companies knew of the drill until the invitation was published. A meeting would have to be held to decide on taking the trip, which would give the companies little over a weeks preparation.

At this juncture again the miiiiner, She looks at the shopper with cold cal cuiation in her glance. You can't think of wearing that" says she. brutaliy:. your face is much too thin" She carries something in her hand and this she deftly places on the others head. The very thing" says she. and falls off a pace or two. the better to inspect the victims features. The hat is quiet affair. There is nothing striking about 1t. It could be worn by Mrs. Jones' who has no nose to speak of and Is as yellow as oleomargarine. The shopper gazes at 1t and asks. How much?" discontentedly ..
 Eighteen dollars" says the milliner, much as if she were repeating the multi plication table. and the shoppers respect goes up for the nodescript hat.
 But it isn't as striking as the last one. which was only s more. so, after consideration, she decides to show her independence and take the headwear she likes, without regard to whether her face is too thin for it or not.
 The milliner looks resigned as she says sine will send 1t.
 The shopper wears her new possession two days later and meets all her dearest friends in a group on the shopping streets. Dear mel" the say, what lovely hat-but don't you think it is just little broad for your face?"
 Thus is the miIliner avenged and the shopper swears to herself with all the feminine paths that she learned in school that never, never again will she act in opposition to the milliner's dictum, but nevertheless she regards that good wom-. an with resentment for some tine to come. for she has dispelled her illusions about her looks, and that is always a dangerous thing to do.

The Liquor Trade n Cuba.

HaNana PONt
 If the Cuban Government was controlled by the white-ribbon temperance societies of the North she could not have taken a more de- cisive step against liquor than she has done. The new tax placed liquors is so very high that the liquor dealers. dstillers and all state that they will have to go out of business. and in few days 1t is promised that those people who want "eye-openers' may have to take lemonade or milk instead. There seems to be no doubt that the industry in Cuba Is killed. One of the oldest liquor firms in Cuba closed its doors last week. while in these col- umns this morning of the largest dealers in Cuba announces that he is clearing out his goods preparatory to retiring from business.

Chicago fans led on by the en-
thusiastic utterances of Frank Selee,
manager of the Nationals, are 'touting"
the Cubs as the probable winner of the
pennant of 1908. Well here is conf
dence of the most advanced type. True,
the Cubs are playing fast ball these
days but Pittsburg and New York are
by no means asleep. and while it can
not be denied that three-fourths of the
baseball sharps would like to see the
pennant taken away from the Smoky
City Pirates, in order to give the game
a stimulus. the Fred Clarke aggrega-
ton shows no let up in form and with
it's present lead should again win out.
The Giants. under the management
of the astute 'tMugsy'' McGraw, are
confident that they will nose out the
, Chicagos at the finish, but no argu-
ments of any sort can shake the faith
of the Windy City fans
Manager Selee says: Don't be alarm
ed. The Chicago club has not conceded
the flag to Pittsburg as yet. While the
odds are against the Cubs winning the
pennant in the National league, I be-
| lieve there is nothing impossible in the
way of their success in landing the
| bunting. With Casey back the Cubs
will brace up and play the game they
are capable of. The New Workers are
slated to hit the slide hard before the
end of the season. as Manager McGraw
has only two men on his pitching staff

Miss Anthony is picked by large
number of the wise ones to be the
logical winner of the title this year.
She is one of the most popular players
in the country and can always be de-
pended on to put up a star game. Miss
Anthony has been actively engaged in
competition during the entire season
and is in rare shape for a champion
ship battle. Do not leave her out of
your calculations when you prophesy
the result of the tourney
Mrs. Manice is also a dangerous fac
tor to be considered by women ambi-
tious for national glory. She has twice
come within a hairs breadth of captur-
ing the title and is a winner of a dozen
championships of lesser Importance
She it was who two years ago in the
championship tourney, aroused a flu
rore by pressing her husband into
service as her caddie. He is a player of
no mean ability himself and was thus
able to give Mrs Manice advice con-
corning her shots. Her rival players
raised a storm of objections, verbal
skyrockets scared and explanatory
bombs exploded right and left but all
with no effect on the imperturbable
Mrs. Manice. She held the fort stoutly
against the onslaught and had the serv-
ices of her husband as caddie all
through the tourney. The next season,
just to show her opponents that she
was not gutter in any sense of
the word, she trotted hubby out on the
links again in the national meet and
gave him another opportunity to show
his skill as club carrier.
