THINGS YOU DON'T KNOW. What Kind of Hat Docs Your Best

T wonder" said Mir Glimmcrton. ''how many of us could tell with cer- talnly. if at all. just what sort of hat our best and longest known fricad wears.
 For instance: Here is a man whom I meet often: and I don't knew what brought it up 10 me. but when the question did come up the other day found that didn't know whether he wears a derby or a soft hat. I am perfectly familiar with his form and figure and I could tell him q block away: but cannot tell you at this minute what sort of bat he wears.
 T fancy it would he found just the same as to our recollection of mems bearls. Take Jones. or Robinson. or any man you know well and see of- ten. Could you tell right. off. or could you tell at all. whether he wears . card or not: or if he does wear one. how he wears itl

PROPOSE CHILDBIRTH PREMIUM
RooseveIt's Anti-Race-Suicide Theories
Are Endorsed by Chicago
Union Labor.

President Roosevelt anti-race- suicide
theories are to receive the hearty in
dorsement of Chicago's union labor
An organization is being perfected
which will place premium on child
birth One hundred dollars is to be
paid to the wife of each member of
the association at the birth of a child.
Should the stOrk leave TWINS at the
home of the union man, the premium
will be raised to $3.50 and $500 will be
paid cheerfully in the event of trip
let's.
There is a two-fold purpose in the
object of the proposed beneficiary or
ganization, one of which is to insure
the father and mother of a stated sum
at a time when it is greatly needed, and
the other is one which has back of it
purely union principles-to remove
women from the field of labor and place
her where she rightfully belongs, in the
home.
There are many single union men
working alongside union women who
would marry If they felt they could
afford to accept the responsibilities that
go with the rearing of a family" said
one interested union man yesterday.
With the woman taken from the field
places will be open for men at better
wages That is one vital problem
which we believe can be solved in no
other way. In order to take women
out of labor the field. the men must
marry them and furnish them homes"
