PANAMA HATS OUT OF DATE.

PANAMA HATS OUT OF DATE.
New York Press: This is what
a prominent halter has to say: ''Of
course, we notice no interest in
Panamas, although his decreasing
demand is not unexpected. Panamas
were killed by cheap limitations,
and the only alternative in summer
headgear is the ordinary straw hat.
There are some individuals who will
wear expensive Panamas, especially
in the country, but in town they
will be few and far between. We
are not advising the purchase of
Panamas. Sonnet straw, smooth
coarse braid, is the proper thing. -
Another halter made this state
ment: "Pranamas are down and
out and will never be in fashion
again. Too many men have $50
hat in their closets and no chance
of uslngi it. There are some Panamas
in the street, but they are last years

To tempt her into pleading for

words, If that was really like her, and
his doubts on that subject were brand
new ones. will you come and see

course he went, praying the while that
he should find her alone.
And she was alone; so far he quickly
saw the realization of his wish. Yet
for the moment, as he advanced to-
ward her up the long room, he hardly
knew her, hardly recognized his UNI
adorned beauty, the child of the dowdy
frocks, in the perfectly dressed girl
now waiting for him with laughter and
bushes chasing each other on her be-
wildering face. For the first time in
his life he found nothing to say, and
so she was forced to begin. She SEEM
ed not unwilling.

said. She put up a hand to the imi-

that looked priceless, among the laces
at her neck and twisted them round
to show him they were unknotted.

"Will you answer me something?"
she asked.
"Yes-yes-
"Only this-which sort of frock do
you like me in best?"
"This," he said, true to his creed.
''This-I suppose. Oh, my darling, we
are starting at the wrong end, but if
you keep the letters we shant be able
to afford such frocks."

would have caught her to him, but she
warded him off.
