PAPER HATS ARE POPULAR.
Chicago Chapeau worked Up" by q
Girl Of That City.

From the Chicago Tribune.
The girl in the paper hat will be the belle
of the parks and the lakes and the sum-
mer resorts this coming summer. The
paper hat Is the prettiest hat ever invented,
according to knowing beauty lovers and
critics. and 1t can be made as dainty ano
delicate hand-tucked chiffon without
costing third Of the latter's price.
Just how strong Is this point In favor OF
the PAPER hat only those individuals who
have bought and paid for the lovely but
perishable chiffon creations can realize.
And when it is added that the paper hat
will wear far better. Withstand far more
varied and trying tests and conditions than
the chiffon beauty. the secret of the paper
hats inevitable popularity and prominence
is most clearly explained. And when 1t is
further added that while the paper hat will
not, of course, emerge triumphant from a
violent rainstorm. 1t will bear. undimmed
and unaltered. the most brilliant sunshine
and the soaking. .dispiriting mists that re-
duce its chiffon rival to Il decidedly limp
condition, no woman Will wonder that the
orders for paper hats are piled up far
ahead OF the few people who can success
fully create" them, nor that at least every

Charles A. Gardiner of New York wishes
the general government to assume the duty
OF educating the negro. IT Is the lack OF
education. he says. which has made the
negro "a Frankenstein. the terror OF M

recreate him, your Frankenstetn Will some
day turn and rend. not fifteen states. but

with his Frankenstein as are most men
who lug him into their speeches Mrs.
Shelley wrote an unpleasant novel eighty
Ave years ago, In which she tells OF a
student who built up a huge monster out
OF material he culled from tOmbs and dis-
sectfnR tables. The monster was lonely.
and insisted that its creator make mate
for Il. as Eve was made for Adam. The
maker of the monster. alarmed by the
strength and ungovernable passions his
handiwork possessed, refused to do 1t. 30
the monster in revenge killed his best
friend and strangled HE bride. The hero
OF the story, the man who had 30 much
fatal ingenuity. was called Frankenstein.

A PHILIPPINE PARADISE.
Climate as Equable as Hawaii and as
Bracing as the Adirondacks.

Climate as Equable as Hawaii and as
Bracing as the Adirondacks.
From the New York Sun.
Summer stations at high attitudes in trop-
ical lands are important for the health and
comfort Of white immigrants from the tenn
crate zones II they may have a breathing
spell during the most heated period at an
altitude where the air is bracing, the tenn
perature moderate, the water pure and
cold and the scenery beautiful and inspir-
ing. they may acquire a fresh stock of
health and vigor to carry them comfortably
through their daily routine.
Such a spot was found in the Philippines
in August 1900, when our meteorological
station was established in Benguet, in
northern Luzon, $50 miles north of Manila
and twenty miles from the China sea.
During the first year the mean tempera-
ture in April, May and June, the hottest
months in the Philippines was 6S.6 degrees
Fahrenheit. and the mean temperature
from November to February. inclusive, the
most temperate months, was 64.9 degrees.
The amount of rain. cloudiness and humid
ity and the nature of the soil made 1t GER
tain that the fruits of temperate climates
would thrive in this favored region.
When the Philippine weather bureau was
organized in May. 1901. it began to give
special attention to the climatology OF va
rious regions In the archipelago that might
be chosen as health resorts. Benguet was
the subject of the first exhaustive study
and report. Father Algue, director Of the
bureau. wrote a pamphlet OF seventy-one
pages on the climatology of Benguet. which
was published last year as the first num-
Der of the series on health resorts. It is
not surprising in view of the facts he pre-
scented that we are now hearing Of Ben
guet as the coming summer capital and
perhaps the permanent capital Of the archi-
pelago.
Benguet is a small province of Luzon, q

ment buildings are to be erected stands at

Governor Taft has just returned to Manila
in splendid health after two months on this
plateau. His cable dispatch to the Secre-
tary OF War announcing his arrival at Ben
guet on April Is last contained the follow
ing:
Great province. This is only $50 miles
from Manila, with air as brac;ng as Adiron-
dacks Murray Bay. Only pines and
grass lands. Temperature this hottest
month In the Philippines in my cottage
porch at B in the afternoon. 68 degrees
Fahrenheit. Fires are necessary night and
morning.
Father Algue comparing the climatoIoef-
cal data of Benguet with those Of all the
hill stations Of India and Ceylon situated
above 1900 feet. finds that the climate of
the Philippine station appears to be miider
and more favorable for health resort
than that OF any other station. The Ben
and cedar, their rich. red SOL where all the
garden. field and fruit crops of California
thrive. and their grass lands where thou
sands of our cattle will some day grace
are evidently destined to play a most useful
part in the development of the Philippines.

Sermon Preached on the "Fourth O
July"

July.
DETROIT, July 4.-With the observance
of regular Sabbath morning services, the
fourteenth annual meeting Of the central
conference of American rabbis came to an
end today. The conference sermon was
preached by Rabbi Samuel Hirschbers Of
Boston on the appropriate subject for the
Fourth of July. Judaism. Americanism.
Cosmopolitanism.
Rabbi Hirschberg said:
1.-THE Jew. as far as nationality goes,
shares common identity. and in equal de-
gree, with all his fellow residents OF this or
any other land: his religion has naught to
90 with his citizenship, unless 1t be to make
that citizenship the better. the truer and
more devoted. Judaism in the largest uni
versal sense. truly. rightfuiiy. spells cos
mopolitanism.
''It is only the unconscionable and I'M
convincible anti-semitism that cannot and
will not see 1t. There is no people today
so readily assimilative of the national char
acteristics, so truly cosmopolitan, as the
Jew"

STANDARD OIL CANS.
England's Old Married Folk.

From the LORdon Daily Chronicle.
One Of the most curious tables In the re-
Gently published census summary Is that
which gives the respective ages of all the
married couples In the kingdom. From
this we ascertain that there is at any late
one husband Of ninety-ive years who has
wife Of twenty-one. while three husbands
ranging in age from eishty-five to ninety
five have secured wives at Twenty-Five.
Elderly wives and youthful husbands are
rarer, and the greatest disparity In this
direction Ia between q wife of sixty-nve
years and her husband of twenty. The
Oldest couple in the list are aged one nun
dred and ninety-fye years. respectively.
while the youngest pair have only number

ORIGIN OF CHAMPAGNE.
A Benedictine Monk Not the Inventor
Of the Beverage. .r-


Of the Beverage. s+
From the Boston Budget. ="
The origin of champagne is rather mys-
terious. and the painstakng man has yet to
be found who shall write its true and au-
thentic history. 1t was stated recently in
newspapers French and English that the
wine was brought to perfection by no less
a person than an old Benedictine monk.
Dom Perignon, who conceived the idea OF
blending all the different grapes OF the
champagne district for the purpose of dis
covering the highest delicacy and body.
This is true. as far as 1t goes. but it does
not make Dom Perignon the inventor OF
champagne. He wandered about the hills
of the champagne district I'm the early part
of the eighteenth century. and brought his
botanical and agricultural knowledge to
bear On the vines Monks of other branches
of his order were also botanists agricultur-
lists and herbalists, as well as bookmen and
there Is nothing wonderful in their discoy-
cries of good ways for making wines and
liqueurs. The Carthusians. founded by Sc
Bruno, who was a Benedictine OF the re
formed" branch, have given up the world
famed liquor which they made from herbs
and aromatic plants of the mOuntainsde.
Just as the Benedictines proper have given
US that other cordial named after Them ana
lust as some of the TrappiSts or Cister-
Clans who are also offshoots of the ancient
order, founded Monte Casino In the
year 528. by st. Benedict. have invented a
soothing beverage which Is in commerce.
and has trademark. All these monastic
people, whose orders are nowadays SO much
threatened by the French government,
lived in communion with nature and studied
some Of her secrets. Hence IL Is not sur
prising that Dom Pierre Perignon should
have used his monastic experience in the
champagne district and led the way to the
preparation of such wines. for instance,
as the Veuve Cliquot Ponsardn of the pres
ent day. But the wine of the famous
French province now formed by the depart
ment of the Aube. the Hautc-Marne. the
Marine and the Ardennes was famous long
before the time of Dom Pierre Perignon.
the Benedictine botan!st vine cultivator.c
The plantations of the first ''vignes de 81
champagne" dates from the Gallo Roman
days. but their cultivation did not become
properly developed until the fourteenth
century. Rheims and Epernay. now head
quarters for the wine. were not famous
then for their magnificent cellars. hewn In

An Ideal Shattered.

A city girl writes: 1T is fond
thought of mine to become a farmers
wife and meander with him down
life's pathway" Dyes, that is nice
thing but when your husband
meanders off and leaves you with
out wood, and you have to meander
up and down the lane pulling splint-
ers off the fence to cook dinner, and
when you meander around the wet
clover in search of the COWS until
your shoes are the color of the set
ting sun and each stocking absorbs
a pint of water; when you meander
out across twenty acres of plowed
ground to drive the hogs out
of the buckwheat and tear
your dress on a fence, and when you
meander back to the house and find
that the billy goat has butted your
child until it resembles a yellow
pumpkins; and find the old hen and
sixteen chichens in the parlor, the
cat i n the cupboard and the dog in
the milk you will realize, dear girl,
this meandering business is not what
it's cracked up to be.

Star Talk.

Jupiter more than a thousand
times the size of the earth and
whose mass is more than double
that Of all the other planets COM
bined, is now a conspicuous object
high in the early evening sky. 1t
is near the meridian and very favor
ably situated for observation.
Mercury and Venus are morning
stars. The former, however, is not
favorably situated for observation
and passes through superior con-
junction November 81. Venus is
the most brilliant star in the morn
ing sky. The planet reaches west
ern elongation Nov. %, but is al
ready past it's maximum brilliancy
owing to the fact that it's orbital
motion is taking it continually farth-
er from the earth. The remaining
three bright planets are seen in the
evening sky. The first, Mars, is sit
uated low in the southwest and sets
at an early hour. Saturn, at a low
altitude in the south, comes next in
the diurnal procession and is already
near or past the meridian at night

OPEN SHOP" IS DISCUSSED
Federation of Labor Refers a Resolution
on That Subject After
Lively Debate.

Boston, Nov. 13.-President RoOse-
velt's name and his action in the So
called Miller open shop case were
bought up before the convention of the
American Federation of Labor when
several delegates criticised his decision
not to discriminate against non-union
labor in federal employment The ques-
ton came before the convention from
the committee on resolutions in the
way of report that resolution ON
the ''Open shop issue be referred to
the committee of the executive council.
The substance of the resolution was
that the ''open Shop whether under
private or government control, cannot
be recognized by organized labor" Del
egate J. M. Barnes, Of Philadelphia,
president of the Cigar Makers Inter
national union, declared that President
Roosevelt's decision was ''slap in the
face for laboring people. President d.
A. Hayes, of the international Associa-
ton of Glass Blowers, defended the
presidents action. Eventually the res
olution was recommittted to the COM
mittee from which it originated. A res
olution was adopted urging that the
government construct all it's ships in
government yards on the ground that
such policy was fairer to labor.

DESPERATION AT DENVER
Preacher and Lawyer Advise That Win
chesters Be Carried to the Polls
by Good Citizens.

Denver, Nov. 13.-Citizens of Denver
have been advised to use force at the
charter election Dec. 10 to purify the
ballot. At a public meeting called by
the League for Honest Elections facts
and figures were presented tending to
show that at recent elections in this
city thousands of illegal votes had been
counted. Speakers openly charged that
the president of the fire and police
board, the chief of police and officers
in that department, the majority of the
city council who approved the appoint
ment of election judges and the district
attorney who failed to prosecute them
were the persons responsible for the
present state of affairs.
Attorney Ralph Talbot declared in
favor of having 100 men, armed with
Winchesters, go to the precincts in the
downtown wards ready to shed their
blood for the purity of the ballot at the
next election. His suggestion was
warmly seconded by Rev. Henry w.
Pinkham. Seven hundred men and wo-
men cheered for several seconds the
appeal for an armed force to fight, if
need be, for an honest election.

International Live Stock Exposition,
Chicago, 1903.

The entire west is interested in
the occasion of the Live Stock ex-
position from the fact that such an
enterprise is in the nature of a
fitting recognition of the import
ance of the work done by the
breeder and feeder of live stock and
gives well deserved encouragement
to their efforts.
The international exposition has
become a permanent feature in the
progress of live stock exhibits and
is, in the language of Prof Liggett,
Dean of the Minnesota Agricultural
Experiment Station, "The great
tribunal where the leading herds
and focks are brought for final
Judgment. 1t is the annual round
up for breed improvement, where
the interested breeder can mark
the progress and the changes made
IN the public standard of such
breeds. 1t is of more than passing
interest and more importance than
other shows for the reason that it
is the only place where all promi-
nent breeders meet in the show
ring"
The attendance from the west has
in the past been excellent, but the
management anticipate for 1908
an outpour of stock men and others
interested in the Improvement of
western herds such as has never
been equalled in the history of
the exposition.
The Northwestern line announces
that special low rates will be in
effect November goth and 30th and
December 1st for this occasion,
from all points west, with ample
train service for the accommoda-
ton and convenience of all who
attend.
