FOR HOLDING HAT
SIMPLE CONTINUANCE THAT Is
r OF VALUE.
May Be Said to Flll 4 Lons-Felt
Want In the Preservation Of
Delicate and Costly
Millinery.

Where to keep her hats so that they
are protected from dust and light,
which may fade delicate feathers and
ribbons, has been one Of the problems
with which the practical woman has
long wrestled none too successfully
Hat boxes are not easily slowed away,
and then so many of them are needed
to hold single seasons set of head
wear that 1t would take small sized
apartment for these alone. There are
boudoir hat cabinets and exquisite
cretonne and lace covered sets Of
boxes designed especially for hats, but
these are expensive, as rule, and
there is not always room in ones
chamber to accommodate this extra
piece Of furniture.
In place of such trays and series of
prettily covered compartments hat
holders of less attractiveness but great
utility have recently been offered. The
simplest ones are made of stiff wire
frames, resembling somewhat an in
verified scoop bonnet. They stand
about eight inches high and thus raise
the fashionable style of hat to a
height from the closet shelf which
will prevent the disturbance of any of
the dropping trimming now in vogue.
These frames may be procured in the
shops without any decoration. There
are two small rings at the top and two
larger ones at the bottom, with sup.
porting pieces of wire between, and II

Lace and Net Dresses.

While the more elaborate costumes
Of real lace and handmade nets are
outside the field of the little gown, and
beyond the reach of any but the most
generously supplied pocketbook, there
are great opportunities to obtain
pretty, modish, and lasting frocks in
the ready-made robes that are shown
at very moderate prices. These are
easily put together by any one at all
skilled in the art of dressmaking, and
individual touches can be added to
their ready-made garnitures which will
differentiate them from other bought
pattern dresses and bring them into
the class of elegance that is forbidden
to the moderately endowed. Spangled
robes are still modish, but they must
have patterns picked out in braids or
quilted ribbon braidings, insets of lace,
or medallions Of plated muslin to
make them different from the com.
moner sort. ~

all daintily covered, would make a
most acceptable gift. They can be
placed on a shelf Of the closet which
is. deep enough to hold hats, or II the
shelf will not hold more than three or
four two shelves may be used. This
arrangement keeps ones hats in shape
and ready to don at a moments notice.
If thin curtain is hung over the front
of the shelves the possibility Of dust
getting on ones hats is reduced con.
siderably.
Other hat rests are made Of wood,
with a circular base about six inches
in diameter and heavy enough to keep
the frame firm, and then, with a
smaller circle of wood. placed hori.
zontally and at the top Of a small con.
Meeting wooden brace which joins the
centers of the base and top. The en-
tire rest is covered with fine cretonne
or silk. The base and top are padded
with cotton and delicately scented.
Some have little Fittings and frills Of
silk around the circles for the crown
of the hat to rest on.
Rests should not be very high-not
more than an inch over what the hat
actually requires to keep It raised
from the shelf, and If one has trail
ing blume then the rest for this hat
should be high enough for the plume
to be entirely clear or else give it a
place on the shelf where it will lie
without being interfered with by the
other hats and their trimmings.

WE'D, JUNE 5, 1907.

The Columbia Spectator, after
reproducing our sta t m n t,
''The good old summer time is
now here to stay, we hope, with
out further interruptions from
the North Pole brenzes, COM
mented as follows:
The only thing that proves absolutely
that Editor Harris is not a complete
failure as a weather prophet, is his
we hope and hope implies belief. So
we must of necessity say that he will
have to prophesy again. Things may
be warm for him, but we don't find
them so up here"
True, we missed the mark of
our expectancy on the rise of the
mercury, last week, but Things
may be warm for him. is en-
tirely too modest to clearly con-
vey true idea of the tempera-
ture on background floor, down
here. 1t was a hot time last
week, for thesNews gave con-
else report of a great Republican
County Convention without fear
or favor. The fact that the
News has not been cold nor in a
stupor for long time, and never
did have a chill. is sufficient ev-
idence of ample heat regardless
of wind or weather. An open,
determinedEa of a pro-
gressive public policy will destroy
that chilly,n,sensation so common
with many local publications. 1t
is folly toisuffer with cold feet,
or to contend with chills, when
the pencil is full of heat and SUM-
shine. The world needs both,
and no where are they more Sc
verely needed than in this Sec
ton. Ityis still warm on the
ground floor, and evidence OF
plenty heat for several months is
in sight.

NOlMONKEY MAKING.

Thursday evening of last week the
Campbellsville base ball team defeated
the Columbia team on their own
grounds, by the score II to 9. After
the third inning Columbia was never in
the game little bit, and our ''kid"
team made Brother Harris great
giants of the base ball world look like
the verrible thirty cent piece. Our
boys claim they defeated the club
and the umpire both. Send them over
here sometime when they learn how to
play and we will make monkeys out of
'em Campbellsville Enquirer.
The News has heretofore acknowl-
edged the defeat above referred to,
and published the scores as they were
made. We placed every flower in the
crown of the visiting team to which it
was entitled, and offered no apology
for our team outside of this: ''The Co.
lumbia team failed to play up to its
ability, made some bad errors, not
usually made by any of its players, got
outplayed and lost the victory" In
fairness to all parties, there is no just
ground to claim that the umpire was
partial, or that his decisions were not
rendered according to judgment. The
Campbellsville team got fair, square
deal, won the game, and is not justified
in criticising the umpire. Just what it
takes to get beyond the kidhood stage
in base ball playing in Campbellsville is
hard to understand, if the Enquirer is
correct that it was a ''kid" team
That team was made up of some of the
best bah players that could be mustered
from Center College to the Southern
limits of that beautiful little city on the
Greensburg branch of the L. & NJ, and
!, contained married men, as well as
J many eligibles for matrimony, who had
faced swift balls on many other occa-
sions. We don't take to the PROPOSE

ton of making monkeys out of men.
A fair, square deal, courteous treat
ment, and then accept the result, is all
we ask and exactly what we give. The
News favors the meeting in Campbells-
vile, at an early daV, but 'We will
make monkeys out of Them" is
too much salt and too little sugar to
really be inviting to the players in this
town. Modify and guarantee your
good will for square deal and it will
be more inviting.
