Hat Strings for Fall

There is some question whether or
not the fall hat is to be equipped with
tie strings.
. Certain shapes would be too ridlcul-
GUS thus equipped, but there's a kind
OF little tooue hat trimmed with vel
vety lunches Of ribbon, which appear
quite demure and pretty over pretty
face.
That is one Of the few models yet
shown with strings. Il does not seem
at all likely that they Will be adopted
for. general wear, save by the matronly
who have always worn them.

Too Busy to Whistle

It is said the art OF whistling will
soon be counted among the lost un-
less there is a revival Of the CHEEKY
spirit that seems TO be forsaxing men.
Nobody whistles as he works in these
strenuous days. He has too much on
his mind to pucker his lips in a whistle
Nor does he hum or sing to himself
FOR that matter. Life is, IL not down
right sad, too busy for that joyous and
unconscious expression Of content

Narrow Brimmed
Hat Doomed

How much the broad-srimmed hat
had to do with woman's beauty may
not be determined off-hand. but girls
who are wearing the diminutive top
pieces Of this season tipped over their
right eyebrows give the impression
that the other form OF headgear must
have been of great value. However.
the little flower-wreath thed hat has
about run its course. A beauty speci-
alist has stirred womankind by an
nouncing that little hats in time viii
spoil the beauty Of ones eyes. IF
you are careful never to wear a mar
row-brimmed hat or to let a glare Of
white light strike fun upon the pupils
observers WIN begin to see a velxety
softness about your eyes which they
never saw before" says the wise look

enty-Eight Years.

Beginning to woIk in tobacco crop
at eight year of ages and not missing
even one years work in seventy is
the remarkable record of Ben Miller
of Kirk. this county says the Brock
enridge News
Mr.. Miller is seventy-eight years
old and healthy and happy. He has
never bought a piece of meat or a
sack of corn because he needed it
since he has been Il farmer. That is
to say he has never been compelled
to buy meat because he did not have
it in his smokehouse. or compelled
to buy a sack Of corn because there
was none in the barn. This cannot
be said of most farmers of to-day.
A family of seven children, all set
tied on farms which Mr.. Miller has
provided them surround him at
his homestead. Mr.. Miller is in good
circumstances and works for amuse-
ment only. He possesses good health
and was stout and active enough to
make full hand in the attending Of
his tobacco crop last year.

FIERCE SHARK
Attacked a Fisherman in his Boat
and Almost Kill
ed Him.

When the portland fishing schoon-
err Moses B. Linscott. Captain l.. J.
Miller arrived in port this afternoon
she brought a badly bruised-up sail
or and a monster man-eating shark
which he had altar a desperte fif-
teen-minutes battle captured off
Tantei bank yesterday morning.
This is one of the few cases of
maneating shark having ever been
taken in these waters. The big fish
weighed 675 pounds and measured Z
feet 4 inches.
The hero or the conflict, +. II.
Miller, a brother of the Captain. was
pulling travis in small dory about
500 yards from the schooner, when
he pulled and trawl to the surface,
wonderful at its weight and saw the
big shark lying in it. The fish was
quiet until he saw the dory; in an in
slant he made rash for it.
When | saw that terrible wide
open mouth and four great rows of
teeth my nerve left me" said Mill
er. But | picked up a big oar to
defend myself with.
The sharks leaps carried him
away but of the water and when he
struck the dory had all | could do
to keep from being thrown out and
into the water.
The second jump came near see
ing the end of me, for the big fish
made such leap that he threw him
self right ocross the boat and carried
her gunwhale under water at the
same time hitting me terrific blow
with his tall that dazed me.
ION the third jump. by a lucky
blow with my oar over the back of
his neck | stunned him. Another
boat came to my rescue just then,
and together we finished him."

A HUMAN MAGNET.
Man Struck BY Lightning At
tracts All Metal
Objects:

Jared Jewel, of Mentonne, is quite
low to-day with pneumonia, but his
physician, G. G. Stown, is confident
that he will recover, and if he does
so Mr.. Jewel will be glad to have
suffered from the accident that
brought on the pneumonia because of
the greater trouble that it will have
freed him from.
A year ago last summer Mr.. Jewel
was struck by lightning while hoe
ing potatoes in his garden. and,
althougs he did not seem to have
suffered any particular physical in
jury from the shock he Immediately
became heavily and permanently
magnetlzed so that he has suffered
almost unbearable inconvenience
from his peculiar condition. His
being magnetized was first observed
by friends who carried his uncon-
scions form in from the garden
where he was struck down by the
lightning and who noticed that the
hoe and rake he had been using
stuck to him as they wonld have
done to a large magnet and were
dragged along after him as he was
being carried. His friends tried to
pull them away but this could not be
done and after they reached the
house and were going through the
kitchen to his bedroom he was sud-
denly jerked out Of their hands and
stuck tight to the stove which for
tunately had no fire in it or Mr..
Jewell would have been consumed
for he remained adhering firmly
there for nearly an hour and long
after he had recovered conscious
ness and until the stove was broken
up and picked off him piece by
piece.
After this the magnetic power
somewhat abated but never left him
and he was caused terrible inconven-
fence on account Of it. Knives and
forks would stick 70 his fingers his
watch was spoiled by the magnetism
and when he went past any light
metal object it would spring up and
attach itself to him. Mischievous
children would tosss nails and pins
against him as he walked along the
street and he would soon take on a
most peculiar appearance with the
bright pieces of metal scattered over
his Clothing. But week ago his
trouble eliminated in his sticking
fast to an iron bench out in seclud-
ed portion of the park. and there he
remained all night unable to release
himself and ashamed to exhibit his
plight by calling for help.
At sunrise however the magnetic
condition suddenly left him and he
was able to come away but exposure
to the night air had given him a bad
cold that soon developed into the
pneumonia from which he is now suf-
fering.

Some Curious Facts.

Animals to the number OF nearly
20, 900. 900 are killed yearly for their
fur. When a fish loses any of its
scales, by a wound or other means,
they are never renewed. the larg-
gest moth known is the giant yatlaS,
found in China, the wings of which
measure nine inches across. The
wasp has been observed to waylay
and rob bees while the latter, laden
with honey were returning to the
hive. Civilization does not tend to
the horses longevity. In the wild
state he lives to be thirty-siX or
forty years old while the domestic
horse is old at the age of twenty
five years.
ION behalf of the bears" the
Berne municipality has accepted a
legacy Of 500, left by man for the
inmates of the well-known pits in
the Swiss capital.
Among the insects the most intel
ligent are among those of the aunt
tribe, while next to them rank wasps
Bees comes some way lower down on
toe scale. Beetles are hopelessly
stupid, but even they are not as bad
as butterflies and moths.
In West Australia some farmers
send their cattle for about six
weeks holiday to the seaside each
year. The change of air and food is
said to be extremely beneficial to
them. The grass on the coast is i'm
pregnated with saline and has the
effect of a tonic on the animals.
Arabian horses show remarkable
courage in battle. 1t is said that
when horse of this breed finds him
self wounded, and knows instructive
ly that he will not be able to carry
his rider much longer, he quickly
retires, bearing his master to place
of safety while he has yet sufficient
strength. But If on the other hand,
the rider is wounded and falls to the
ground, the faithful animal remains
beside him, unmindful of danger,
neighing until assistance is brought.
