Shenth for Hat Pin

The hat pin protruding from its own.
ers hat has long been a menace to the
safety of passers by. The hat pin of the
present season, called into existence by
the huge hats of the period. is a posi-
tive instrument of torture. In the first
place. it is twice the length of the or
binary hat pin. and. having to support
such prodigious specimen of MILL
merry, it is douhly strong. But the an
tidote has already arrived in the form
of an ornamental sheath. which is fitted
over the point of the pin after the hat
has been properly adjusted.

Breathe Fresh Air.

II people only knew what good health
and good spirits at end sleeping with
ones head under a window tent, one
and all would do it, says a bulletin of
the Indiana Health Department.
Coughs, colds, pneumonia, consumption
and all other diseases of the air pass
ages are principally induced by breath
ing foul air. The window tent supplies
fresh outdoor air to breathe and at the
same time permits the body to be in u
warm room. The head is accustomed to
the cold, and in very cold weather an
ordinary woman's knit hood may be
worn to protect the ears and cheeks.
During the night and when asleep the
tissu : are repaired and the brain and
nerve cells are recharged with energy
Pure air is the great factor in repair
work. Consumption and catarrh in
their early stages can be cured by
breathing fresh air night and day.

NO STATE TAXES AGAIN.
Appropriation of s450,000 for Capt.
toll Taken from General Fund.

No State tax will be levied in Wiscon-
sin this year except the usual tax of
S157,510 to pay the interest on the bonded
Indebtedness which has regularly been
levied since the Indebtedness was incur
red during the Civil War. In accordance
with discretionary power conferred by
law, Gov. Davidson, Secretary of State
Frear and State Treasurer Dahl removed
the necessity for leyying a State tax by
transferring from the general fund to the
capitol building fund the sum of $4,000,
the amount which the last Legislature
provided should be raised by special State
tax this year to help erect the new State
house. This was done because the general
fund now has 1868, 457 so that $450,00o
can be taken from it without any likeli-
hood of its being exhausted by the de
mands made upon il during the coming
year. The estimated additional receipts
are $5,301 070 and disbursements in 1907,

Been Killed in New Mexico.
Robert Harmon. brother of James
Harmon, who has been prominent in edu-
cational circles in Chicago, was declared
legally dead in the County Court in ke-
nosha. Harmon left Kenosha in 1872 and
went to New Mexico to work for the gov
eminent in dealing with the Indian tribes.

Indians and buried on the plains of New
Mexico. He left small estate IN he
nosha county and has property in other
places. Under the Wisconsin law, man

HIrh RuchinE.

The new plaitings and frills at the
top of boned stocks are growing higher
than ever. There seems no limit &c
what can be done in the height of the
collar and the size of the hat. Very
few faces can stand as much ruchins
as the fashion prescribes, but these are
tho very faces that will wear it. While
tie small, plated frill is pretty. the
extra large one is not. Remember IL
ways to have the stock very high If you
wear one of these ruchings. Nothing is
uglier than the tight stock that is an
inch too low, with the plating that
droops over its edges.
