SILK HATS IN JAPAN.
some Queer Specimens Are Worn by
Men Who Affect European
Fashions.

The Japan Weekly Advertiser has
a few words to say about the aping
of western customs by the Japanese,
and takes for it's text the foreign
clothes seen on citizens of the flow
cry empire. 1t says:
Men of fair status are frequently
to be seen wearing silk hats of ante
diluvian pattern, with ordinary ma
tive costume down to geta and zori.
AS for the hats, where the blocks
come from is mystery, but the fact
remains that a Bowery or White
chapel tough would be ashamed to
go abroad in some of the abortions
masquerading as 'bowlders' and top
pers,' which are as common as per-
simmons in Japan.
"Here is a case where the natives
cannot excuse themselves on the
ground that they have no model to
go by, A glance at the first for
eigner should be sufficient to teach
them that a hard hat worn over the
ears, and measuring scarcely more
than two inches in height from the
brim to the crown, is not a fashion
able adjunct of European costume in
the twentieth century, though it
might have been so 30 years ago"
The wearing of silk hat with a
kimono is, says the Advertiser, 'the
outward and visible sign of certain
intellectual inaptitude."

MAINE woMAN's CAT FARM.
Raises Beautiful Species for Which
She Finds Ready Sale at
Good Prices.

From the various parts of the
country we hear of new occupations
taken up by women; some have gone
in for kitchen gardening, others to
raising poultry and yet others have
undertaken the culture of nursery
products or taken up the breeding of
stock in its several branches.
There is one woman on the coast
of Maine who has made very con-
siderable income by conducting cat
farm. In that locality is a beautiful
species of cat, called by some of
the natives ''coon cat" and by others
''shag cats" These cats in many
cases attain to a considerable size,
1s and 20 pounds being not at all un-
common, says the Brooklyn Eagle.
They vary in color, have large
heads and many of them pronounced
mutton chop whiskers in addition to
their "smellers;" the fur on their
chests grows very long and among
the finest of the breed have a small
fur tassel growing from the very CEN
ter of the chest.
The tails of these cats are beauti-
full; the fur grows long, often 21s
inches in length, and very full; they
also have very unusual eyes, being
large and extremely bright.
In frequent instances these cats
mature with blue eyes and it is not
uncommon to see a full-grown cat
of this breed with one blue and one
green eye.
Years ago many of the Maine sea
captains brought home from their
trips to eastern ports specimens OF
the beautiful cats of the orient,
which in after years developed into
the present coon cat.
One woman recognized the beauty
of this cross-breed and has for sew
era1 wears been raising these cats
and making money out OF the enter
nrise. She takes orders and sends
the cats to all parts of the United
States.
Tbe price ranges from five dollars
inward. size, color, etc, determin-
ing the cost. She has large house
for them and spacious grounds
scraaned off with wire netting, which
nrevents the cats straying off. The
nronrietor of this cat farm says that
catt are easier to raise and command
veaAier sales than dogs.
