using the salt bag is to let the fierce
heat pass away, and to apply the bag
without any poultice, over a layer OF

RENoVATING A STRAW HAT,
It's Easily Done and Usually with Re-
suits Pleasing to the Eco
nomical Owner.

There is nothing to prevent every girl
from having stylish and becoming hat,
if she has an old straw hat and any idea
at all of trimming, as nearly all trimming
used in millinery can be cleaned and
freshened, and any good straw hat can
be brought up to date by changing the
color or by altering the shape or style
of trimming.
The popularity of the fancy straw
braids helps out wonderfully in trans
forming an Old hat, as one or two rows
of the braid sewed TO a narrow brim
may broaden it to the fashionable
widths, and the braid comes in every
grade and color. If the crown is not
of the required size, but the brim is
wide, the crown can be removed and a
new one made of silk or tulle, and fin
ish the edge of the brim with mar
row quilting of the same material as
the crown. A lovely summer hat was
made from an old white chip by max
ing new crown of green and white
chip and net weave, which was bought
for % cents, and two-inch green chip
braid was added to the brim, and the
new crown and edge were sufficient trim
ming for the hat.
To clean white straw hat that has
become much sOiled, first scrub it with
q good suds until there is no dirt left
on it, then rinse and dry in the air,
and when perfectly dry wash the straw
with a solution of oxalic acid or the
white of an egg we'll beaten.
Another way to bleach the finer
-straws is to carefully scour with warm
water and corn meal then apply a
paste of sulphur and lemon juice and
place in the sun to dry. If one can
afford new ribbons for hat trimming,
the old can be cleaned and used for
neck ribbons, and if faded they can be
colored any of the rich dark shades
with the diamond dyes for silk, and the
dye for wool is used for Frightening up
colored hats that have faded, by dis
solving 1t in a little alcohol and ap-
plying to the hat with a soft brush
New life may be added to the straw
by means of a little stiffening, and after
the entire surface of the hat has been
evenly colored it may be given coat OF
thin varnish.-Louisville Courier-Jour-
nal.

LOVES YOUNG DREAM.

Dust

The wind swept a cloud of dust about
them as they turned the corner of the street,
relates the Cleveland Plain Dealer
Did you get any dust in your eyes, dar-

to him, as though to keep the too eager wind
away.
Yes" she murmured, searching for the
handkerchief
Which eye, dearest?''
The right one, love. Did you get any
thing in yours" she asked anxieusly, seeing
has handkerchief appear.
Yes, darling"
(which eye, deaEest?"
The right one, love"
How sweet" she exclaimed, with a sad
light glowing in her well eye. do you sup
pose, dearest heart, that it could have been
part of the same piece of dust that got into
our eyes, darling"
81 hope it was,' he said, beaming with one
eye and wiping the other
Wouldn't it be sweet, dearg"
Wouldn't it, love!"
And the wind howled around the corner
as though it was in pain and from the house
three doors below a dentists sign fell off
into the street.
