loose jacket Of another oriental silk
with an indistinct shadow effect in
the weave. Perhaps the most predom-
mating millinery feature of the season
Is the dropping effect in which the
trimming is arranged at the back Of
the hat. 1t is not at all uncommon for
the mass of flowers or feathers to
reach nearly or quite to the shoulders,
and long streamers Of ribbon are much
used.
The popularity Of the present blouse
is its trig shapeliness and small waist

Hats With Tempers,

There are hats with tempers, as ev-
cry woman is aware-the hats that
''go on beautifully one day (for pref
erepce in the hat shop five minutes
before they are bought and which in
the next refuse to assume the right
pose and poise for love or money.
There are few conditions more trying
than to fall under the ban of a hats
displeasure. The only thing to be done
is to put it away for a week CT so
and wait till it has recovered from it's
temper, like a naughty child. One can
not argue with a hat and smacking is
not to be recommended. = London

Exchange In Neckties.

A South Penn square business man
has evolved a plan of how to dodge
WHEY, but there is merit attaching to
IL in this case. His wife insists on
buying his neckties and dotes on laven-
der and red or green spots or a pale
shimmering nile green shot with pur-
pie. Rather than cause her anguish by
seeming TO decry her taste in cravats,
her husband most deceitfully starts for
the Office every morning wearing a tie
OF her selection. Once in the Office,
however, the traitor quickly exchanges
the offending necktie for something
quieter which he keeps under careful
lock and key in his own private desk.
1t would be interesting TO find out his
wife's sensations should she pay him
a visit some day in Office hours or
should he forget TO make the exchange
again before his trip home.-Philadel-

A WISE BRlT0N.
He Half Suspected at the Start That
the Feathers Weren't Edible.

A Brooklyn man who entertained an
English relative tells this without the
CULVER of an eyelid:
My cousin from London reached
New York last summer, along with
hot wave The crowds were deep be-
fore the soda water fountains on lower
Broadway. He remarked that he did
not comprehend how Americans could
swallow that nasty slush.'
"a mere preference | explained.
We have many curious examples of
that kind in this country. One Of the
most remarkable evidences of insatia-
BILE appetite for froth rather than sub
stance is that of the American poultry
lover who daily advertises in our New
York papers for 1000 feather beds. As
you may well imagine, he is said to
have entirely lost his taste for the
flesh of the fowl
"'Oh, really exclaimed the English
man in quiet surprise. Nothing more
was said till nine months later, when
| opened my mail one day and found
a marked copy of the London Times,
which he had sent to me- He called
my attention to this extract in an
article on mob rule and lynching in
America, 1t can hardly be possible
that the supply of tar and feathers in
the United States will be sufficient at
the rate the mObs are covering the
bodies of the poor wretches who are

drawn and quartered or burned at the
stake

quite plain the man wanted the beds

believe, to eat brooklyn Eagle.

Bailey first appeared in politics in
Texas as n delegate to a congressional
convention. He, of course, spoke elo
quently for his man. There was n
deadlock, and so great an impression
had Bailey made that some one pro
posed to nominate him. and STAN.
pede started in his favor. Bailey felt
in honor bound, however, to stand by
his candidate and tried to stem the
tide for himself. but all in vain. Final
ly an inspiration struck him. He an
nounced that he had not reached the
constitutional age Of twenty-five, and
as a result his name was dropped, and
the man he favored was nominated.
Bailey failed to say, however, that he
would have been twenty-five before he
would have had to take his seat. IL
elected.

The way Joe Bailey finally got his
nomination to congress is told in the
following anecdote:
He was again a delegate to the con-
vention and on the way met an old
farmer.
"Golng to the convention" asked
Bailey. yep" said the farmer. Ever
hear Of young lawyer named Bailey
around here?' asked Bailey. Nope"
said the farmer. Good speaker, bright
fellow, l understand, suggested Bal
ley. "S'pose So" said the farmer.
EYES," continued Bailey, land he will
be over there today, and I'll tell you
what Wen do. Well call on him to
make a speech. You see all your
friends, tell them about Bailey, and
We'll call on him."
The farmer said call right" No more
was said about the matter until there
was lapse in the convention. Sud
denly the farmer got up and suggested
that the convention hear from Mr. Bal
ley, "a risin' young lawyer of these
diggin's," he said, IAN a Teller who
talks like putin out fire." Bailey!
Bailey Bailey!' more than a dozen
yells went up, and Bailey came forth.
He made one of the hottest speeches
of his life, and the upshot of the whole
thing was that the 'risin' young law
yer Of these diggin's" got the nomina-
ton for congress.

They were telling ghost stories in the
Democratic cloak room in the senate,
and Senator Bailey asked if anybody
had heard the story of the man who
had been reading late at night and
who turned around to find something
in the shape of a man, but without
head, sitting close beside him.
"The man jumped up" said the SEN
ator, 'bolted cut of the house and ran
like a whitehead until he could run no
farther. When he was exhausted, he
sank down on log gasping, but hope
ful that he had left the apparition be-
hind. To his intense horror he found
the same figure sitting beside him on
the log when he looked around. He
was too much played out to run just
then, so he sat and shivered. In a
minute the figure hitched up close and
said. That was very pretty race we
had, wasn't it?'
YES gasped the man, but it isn't
a marker to the one we're going to
have as soon as i get my breath"
