REVIVAL OF THE sUNBONNET.
An Old Friend Is Coming in Again
Woman and Her Hat.

No more cheering information has
| been contained in the fashion notes
for many a day than that the sun
bonnet is coming in" again 1t will
be heartily welcomed, as an old
friend whose kindly offices have
been missed.
The original purpose of the hat
was protection from sun and rain.
Men still wear hats with that idea in
view. But with woman it is diff
erent Her hat is no longer an arti-
Gle of wearing apparel, but an Orna-
ment 1t is designed not as sun
shade or a roof against the rain, but
as an adornment wherewith to ac-
centuate her particular style of
beauty-for all women are beauti-
full and each must have a hat that
is becoming" to her. That ac-
counts for the millions of fashion
able shapes that are to be seen on
heads and in shops, to the utter be-
wilderment of mere man. The WO-
man S hat, in short, is CONNECTION,
a picture, a dream, that is not to be
brought in contact with wind and
weather on pain of spelling both the
hat and a bank note with one or
more 'saWbuckS" on it. And yet
the woman's hat is an evolution. In
the days that are past women wore
headgear, the same as men, to shield
their heads from the elements. The
sunbonnet was one of the most COM
mon forms of that headgear. 1t had
the merits of cheapness and afford
ing perfect protection against the
sun. No conservitOr of compilations
has ever surpassed it. But the de-
mand of Fashion, a tickle jade who
cares little for utility, some years
ago sent the sunbonnet to the rag
bag. And now it appears that Mis-
tress Fashion is going to fish out
the sunbonnet again and put it on.
Thus we see that styles move in
cycles.
The sunbOnnet ought to be given
a hearty welcome. it forms a charm
ing frame for a pretty face, while
preserving the face from tan. 1t
suggests friendliness and dispels the
idea of affection on the part of the
wearer. There is no formality in
sunbonnet, neither is there friyol-
ity 1t bespeaks the simple life, ac-
comranied by heartiness and health.
Maud Muller, of course, wore sun
bonnet while she raked hay, and the
Judge saw now charming she was.
And it wasn't the fault of the bonnet
that he didn't make the most OF the
opportunity Savannah News.

THE COST OF CAMPAIGNS.
Many Millions Are Spent to Carry
an Election.

What becomes of the immense
sums raised by national committees?
Only part OF the answer is known;
the remainder can only be guessed
at. First of all must be noted the
cost of maintaining the national
headquarters, often amounting to
900 a day, since the organization
must be as extensive as that of the
executive offices of a great railroad
system Every time a great meet
ing is held in a city like New York
the incidentals call for perhaps
$4,000; if torchlight parade is to
precede it, from $4,000 to $4,000
more must be provided
The silver eloquence of single
campaign often costs as much as
100000. The taking of a political
census in all the doubtful states
makes great inroads on the fund
early in the campaign, but the most
expensive work comes during the
last three weeks. For example, it
is reported on good authority that
few days before the election of
1883 the democrats sent 100000
in to Indiana; three nights before
the election, Chairman Quay for
warded 100000 to the same state.
A conservative estimate of the to-
tai cost of a presidential campaign,
including the smaller campaigns in
every state carried on in connection
with it, would not fall far short of
$2O,00O,O00
The evils of the system of cor
porate contributions TO political
managers were obvious from the
start. The money is not given as a
gratuity but as a business invest
ment, with the expectation of re-
turns proportionate to its highly
speculative nature.-World' Work.

vAGARIEs OF THE PACIFIC.
Strange Things Have Happened to
the Ocean This Year.

Strange Things Have Happened to
the Ocean This Year.
The year 1906 has done strange
things to the Pacific ocean of which
last weeks typhoon, destructive as
it was, is probably the least serious.
The earthquake at San Francisco
and Valparaiso not only seem to
have wrought tremendous damage
on land, but to have moved the very
foundations of the deep. bran
new island is reported to have risen,
smoking and steaming from the wa
tiers of Behring sea. The recent
numerous groundings of big Pacific
steamers in charge of capable navi-
gators are explained by the fact
that familiar ocean currents have
been detected from their wOnted
courses, presumably by earthquake
movements of the ocean bed. Those
who go down to this sea in ships
have a new peril to guard against.

COTTON GROW ING IN AFRICA.
The Only Success Has Been Attained
in Egypt.

III Egypt.
DESPITE the efforts that are being
made to develop a cotton growing
industry in other parts of Africa,
the only section where success has
been attained is in Egypt, where the
industry has been we'll established
for many years and where the
amount of land available is being
steadily increased by irrigation. In
all other parts of the continent sue
cessful growing on commercial
scale has been impossible owing to
the lack of suitable labor, and, I'M
less Chinese labOrers are introduced,
it will be many years before any
part of Africa except Egypt can be-
come an important competitor Of the
cotton fields of the United States.
The greatest degree of success has
been met with in some of the Eng
lish possessions, where the work is
being encouraged by the British
cotton growing association. Reports
from Lagos and northern and south
ern Nigeria show that the prOduc-
ton this year amounted to 5000
bales, and that total yield of TO-
600 bales is expected next year. In
the German possessions, on the other
hand, the outlook is not so encOur-
aging-the total yield for the year
in all German territory-an area
about as large as the cotton belt in
the United States-being but S65
bales. The Germans regard the out
look for the production of cotton by
the natives of Africa as far from en-
cOuraging.

SNAKE is MANS FRIEND.
He Helps to Keep Down Pests that
Destroy Grain and Crops.

From the New York Sun.
Many stories are told Of black
snakes that have attacked human be-
ings and full grown specimen
might conceivably injure a weak,
small child. Even at its greatest
DEVELOPMENT this snake is incapable
of doing more than cause an I'M
pleasant construction of the muscles
of a grown person and the tales of
its attacks on men and women end
| ing in serious consequences to any
thing except itself may be put down
as imaginary.
The copperhead is venomous. 1t
belongs to the rattlesnake family, is
sluggish in it's movements, principal
ly nocturnal in its habits, seeking
by day to avoid notice. 1t will not
bite unless alarmed or provoked, and
the popular theory that it lies in
wait to strike human beings from be-
hind is entirely without foundation.
Recently a New Jersey man boast

perhead and was stung by it. Us

Intentionally disturb it while they
are handling brush or stones in the
woods or while clearing swamp land.
Each of these snakes performs a
valuable service to man in destroy
ing small pests such as moles and
mice. The blacksnake eats the gar
tersnake and the copperhead and
rattlesnake, following their trail by
scent, avoiding their poison fangs
and crushing them to death. 1t is
also a famous tree climber and a no.
torious rObber of bird S nests. The
blacksnake may be tanned. The cop
perhead also eats the gartersnake,
which is the prey of many birds and
mammals.
The gartersnake is almost the
most courageous of serpents. Not
withstanding it's diminutive size, it
shows small fear of man, though in
capable of injuring him, and its
strength and ability make it a fire.

1t is most prolific, single female

While the fostering of even the
small and nonpoisonous serpents is
not likely to become popular, they
are of great value to the farmer in
keeping down harmful animals to
combat which on a large scale no
cheap and effective means has been
found.
The harm they do is limited to the
destruction of birds, but in the war
fare for existence that continues
throughout the life Of all animals
the birds are not without means of
offense and defense. Were snakes
the only enemies the winged tribes
had to fear there would be no need
of passing laws for their protection.
