cost Of having 1t plated is but two cents a

Autumn hats are now to be thought OF.

they can be bought for much under the
original price, are unfaded and unharmed
by handling. The early hats for wear In
autumn, too, are far prettier trimmed with
flowers and foliage than with feathers or
stiff wings as the long winter season af-
fords plenty OF time for the latter decora-

For grease spots there is a cleansing fluid
preferable to most because the grease

to wear those of gold plate. or even sterling

WHEAT BY THE SACK
SPECIAL METHOD OF HANDLING
NORTHERN PACIFIC CROP.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PORTLAND. Ore. August l5.-"What
will be the wheat crop OF the inland en-
pire?' asked Mr.. James Wilson, Secretary
of Agriculture. Of a Portland banker.
He received as a reply, "Sixty-two mill
lion bushels. and that means an increase
OF 100000 bushels over last year. and
last year was the record"
There are peculiar things about the
growing and handling Of wheat in the in
land empire. which includes q part of Ore

they strike the Kansas or Dakota wheat
grower as Just little queer. and the new
conner from those great districts doesn,t
like to handle his wheat In sacks. n
strikes him as both expensive and unnec-
essary, but it seems that the habit is fixed
on tne wheat growers of the Pacific coast,
and the sack came as the result of neces
sity. For years the greater portion of the
wheat was exported to countries where II
was necessary to cross the equator twice
and @ II 1t had gone in bulk it would have
spoiled: but they sack the wheat in tbs

The Wrong Baby.
From the Daily Mall.


A curious mistake recently occurred at
the hospital at Amiens- Two young
women had been there. One had given
birth to boy and the other had given
birth to a girl. Their babies were taken
from them to be vaccinated. After the
vaccination the babies, In their swad-
ding clothes, were returned to their
mothers, who went away with them.
Soon afterward one Of the mothers re-
turned to the hospital In tears. Her child
was a boy. but on returning home she
discovered that the nurse had handed her
d girl. She insisted on her boy being re-
turned to her.
A scene of great confusion occurred. as
nobody knew the address Of the other
mother. At last. toward nightfull. the
other mother arrived. greatly excited,
complaining that she had been given a
boy in mistake for her girl baby. The
change was duly executed and the two
mothers went away happy.

There is a great scarcity of canoes in
Europe and America now. owing to the
gradual dying of OF the old cameo cutters
No canoes are being made. and the old

pei the trains to stop at Emmitsburg. I"
Heaven forefend that we should stab
our neighbor! We must be truthful how
ever, and say that Emmitsburg has many
more attractions than those consisting of
water. This in itself should be a reason
why Emmitsburg should receive more

do envy Thurmont on account of that
beautiful tank, and we state without fear
Of contradiction, that Emmitsburg would
gladly exchange some of her rare COM
modities for that tank if by this means
she could get trains to stop at Rocky
Ridge. We have lots Of tanks, but alas
they are not zinc lined. Nay, nay, never,
