superb Nerve" of a Hat Seeker.


"Oh. but the nerve Of some women
is worth a fortune to them" grOaned a
girl at luncheon in a department store.
I've been trying to get a hat. Up
stairs in the millinery department I
tried on hats until my arms aChed
pinning them on, and the saleswOman
got purple with rage because none suit
ed me. In walked a grenadier sort OF
woman, with & scared looking maid
carrying big paper bag. This woman
shifted around, turned hats upside
down and almost inside out and finally
looked over the untrimmed shapes.
She picked out one. Drawing a chair
before the biggest mirror in the place,
she sat down and had the maid empty
the contents Of that bag in her lap. 1t
held feathers, flowers and ribbons.
Then she began to pin on feathers here,
a flower there and to try the effect Of a
bow in another place. She even had
the maid hold q trimmed hat while she
copied #. The attendants seemed fas-
clnated, for no one said a word. And
that in a store, mind you, where the
salesgirls ask you sarcastically wheth-
er you are looking for something cheap
If you refuse to put down $50 on hat
they select for yOU."-New York Press.

notes in four minutes and three sec
onds. The striking Of each Of these, it
has been estimated, involved two
movements Of the finger and possibly
more.
Again, the movements Of the wrist,
elbows and arms can scarcely be less
than one movement for each note. AS
twenty-four notes were played each
second and each involves three move
ments we would have seventy-twO vol
untary movements per second.
Again, the place. the force, the time
and the duration Of each Of these move
ments were controlled. All these motor
reactions were conditioned upon q
knowledge Of the position Of each fin
ger Of each hand before it was moved,
while moving it, as well as of the au.
ditory effect to force and pitch, all Of
which involves equally rapid sensory
transmlssions.
If we add to this the work Of the
memory in placing the notes in their
proper position as well as the fact that
the performer at the same time partici-
pateS in the emotion the selection de-
scriDes and feels the strength and
weaknesses of the performance, we ar
rive at a truly bewildering network Of
impulses coursing along at inconcetya-
bly, rapid rates.
Such estimates show, too, that we are
capable Of doing many things at once.

hard to find More than 100000 have
been captured In Alabama and the
Southwest, where they still occur IN
abundance, and have been shipped
north for breeding. Even this sup
