The begun is the latest aspirant for
fashionabl favor in Paris. This is about
the smallest type of toque that has ever
presented itself, and really seems more
like an apology for hat rather than
an actual hat itself. Originally intro
duced as theater toque, it has taken
such a hold upon the affections of the
eiegantes that it has obtruded itself
everywhere until now one 1t almost
as much worn with a short morning
tailor made as with the most elaborate
evening toilette.
In its most attractive presentation the
BEGUN is composed of tiny crown in
fur velvet. this presenting puffy
crushed appearance the material being
lightly and loosely tackled to the crown
foundation beneath. There is scant
apology for a brim or rim around this,
upon which there is no end of elab0ra
ton lavished, and the needed note of
character is supplied in a plume-os-
trich. marabout or paradise-that stands
boldly upright on the left side, aud gives
height aud smartness to what would 9th
erwise be a very fat affair. indeed
So far there have not appeared any of
those huge cartwheel affairs that have
passed for picture hats In the times gone
by. All of what the milliner terms large
hats are decidedly moderate dimensions,
compared with some that have been
shown in other seasons; and the eXag-
gerated effects in couture that were wont
TO accompany such chapeaux are luckily
also things of the past.
Some extremely pretty hats are on view
in which the crown is covered altogether
with roses of delicate tint, albeit many
of them of colorings that nature does
not present. They usually match the
brim in hue, and the flowers are deftly
yelled with single thickness of white
tinted malinette, a device that adds much
to the beauty of the chapeau. and aids
also in keeping the delicate blossoms
fresh and dainty. since the malinette is
an altogether waterproof affair and guar
anteed TO withstand fog and dampness
admirably. aud forms an adequate
protection for the flowers.
Flowers and foliage in tinsel effects
are finding quite following, and some
of the prettiest chapeaux show those in
combination with velvet ribbon rosettes.

OVER A CLIFF.


To 60 cut after game in the hill
country of India means that the hunter
will find game, says Captain Glasfurd,
the author Of "Rifie and Romance In
the Indian Jungle" One morning fol-
lowed by his shikarees, or native hunt
ers, Captain Glasfurd was out looking
over a rough hillside for bear. He had
passed round the curve Of high ledge.
when he found himself In front Of
large, low-roofed cave. On the sandy
floor Of the entrance to the cave were
the fresh ingoing tracks Of bear.
Our position was a sufficiently haz-
ardous one. The ledge was extremely
narrow, overhung by rock, and on the
verge Of perpendicular face of sand
stone. We began quietly retracing our
way. But scarcely had we taken one
step when a horrible disturbance oc-
Cured in the depths Of the cavern.
This FASTENED our movements; but our
haste was as nothing compared to the
rapidity Of the eruption that was going
on behind us as the bear came yelling
and scrambling out Of the cavern. For

Plan to RECON- Their Money.

Brigadier General Edwards, chief OF
the bureau of insular affairs, has pre-
scented to Secretary of War Taft a
plan for the recoinage of the Philip
pine silver money. The plan will not
be made public until it has been
adopted by the Philippine commission
and approved by the president.
The recoinage is to reduce the per-
centage Of silver to an amount less
than its bullion value, in order to
put an end to it's being melted, The
bureau OF insular affairs considered
the advisability Of reducing the weight
of coin without decreasing the per
centage of silver and it is believed that
this $ the plan that will be recon
mended.

CuttinK siIo Corn.

O0LNAAk 6hAO OOEMs
It Is Of primary Importance to know
at what stage corn should be cut to Sc
cure the best results. 1t Is also neces-
sary, 1t Is pointed cut in Farming, that
a careful study be made as to how rap
idly nutriment Is stored up in the corn
plant and when the maximum amount
Is reached. When corn is fully tasseled
It contains but eight-tenths Of ton Of
dry matter an acre, or ene-fifth of what
It contains when fully ripe. When In
milk it contains nearly three times as
much dry matter as when fully tas-
seled. Only seventeen days were oc-
cupied in passing from the milk to
the glazing stage, yet in this time there
was an increase In the dry matter OF
1.3 tons an acre. This shows the great
advantage of letting the corn stand
until the kernels are glazed. After this
period the increase in dry matter is bui
slight.

letting the lower end rest between two
roots. Then put strong chain around
the top Of the stump, passing 1t around
the pole. A team hitched TO the rope
will pull out mos any stump. Place
the pole close to the stump and cut the
roots opposite the pole. Two men can
best do the work = one to tend the
horse, the other to cut roots as the
stump is being turned out.

Lack Of Mechanical Knowledge.
The full benefits Of farm machinery
are not realized because the average
farmer has net the mechanical training
or the requisite skill to get the best re-
suits out Of these complex implements.
We are the greatest makers and users
of farm machinery In the world. and
1t Is owing to this fact mere than any
other single cause that we have been
able to maintain eur agricultural SUI
premacy In the markets Of the world.
The cost Of this machinery to the farm
ers is greater to-day than ever before.
The character Of this machinery every
year becomes more complicated, reQuir-
ing increased knowledge Of engineer
ing principles on the part Of users.
The traction engine, the steam, plew,
the combined harvester and thresher
operated by steam power, the automo-
bile, the growing use Of electricity as a
motive power on the farm, the machin-
cry now required In diaries, in the
growing Of sugar beets and manufac-
ture Of beet sugar, are all illustrations
Of the mOmentous changes in the char
acter of farm machines which have
taken place In the last fifty years. The
increase in skill and mechanical knowl-
edge required by farmers to operate
these complex and costly machines csm-
pared to what was needed to operate

ago cannot be given in percentages
