there very day, land you will see that
the slightest change in the weather is
reflected i'll the hats of the commuters.
The hrst few days of fall make them
unhappy so long as the straw hat is still
IN force. New York men are glad of the
opportunity to wear their hats until the
middle of the month. The commuter. on
the other hand, is miserable until he
gets soft gray or brown felt hat for
the autumn weeks. Now the only straw
mats to be seen are on the men who live
IN the city and are out of town for only
snort time longer. The dyed in the
wool commuter who lives out of town
the whole year would be mortified to
death if he had not provided himself
with soft felt hat of some light color.

heads in the world when it comes to a
question of the change in seasons"
