Washington, April l3.-Probably the

wife OF Congressman Mcclure, of
Oklahoma, this winter. The following
is an article that has since been
syndicated, appearing in Chicago and

who was destined To become his

to him, secured for him the two
necessary votes to make him county
attorney. Since their marriage Mrs.
Mcclure has campaigned with her
husband from one end OF their adopt
ed commonwealth to the other end,
and entered upon the social duties
of her position at Washington with
the anne enthusiasm when in the
last days OF territorialism Oklahoma
sent Mr.. Mcclure to plead her state

Long afternoons were spent scat

THE HAT HABIT.
A Custom That Is Neither Becoming
Nor Health Giving.

A Custom That Is Neither Becoming
Nor Health Giving.
Why do both men and women persist
In wearing hatsi asks Parsons Maya
zine. There are three reasons why we
should wear clothes. We may wear
them for the sake Of dccency. for the
sake OF warmth and for the sake OF dis.
play. None of these reasons applies
10 the wearing Of hats. OF course
there are head coverings that are
warm. such as the lcelander's sealskin
hood and the flsherman's toque: but, as
II rule. there Is no real warmth In the
hat of either sex. when a woman pins
a slight structure Of straw and artificial
flowers on the top Of her hair she new
or for an instant imagines that the
thing will keep her from taking cold.
The masculine top hat is certainly

from warm in cold weather.
Neither are hats worn for the pur-
pose Of display. Doubtless there are
times when m make the hat the
occasion Of displaying their fondness
for dead birds. muslin flowers and 9th
or beautiful objects. but this Is only
when fashion has decrecd that big hats
shall he worn. At other times the fe-
male hat Is so microScopically small
that II could not he successfully used
for displaying anything. As for mems
hats. they never display anything cS.
cept the atroclous taste which makes
them fashionable. Why. then, in the
name of all that Is sensible. do men
and women wear hatsi
As n rule, every man and every wo-
man looks better without n hat than
with one. This is why we all take or
our hats AT the opera or at an evening
party, and yet we cling 10 n custom
that has not n word To he said I'm it's be-
half. We persist in wearing the ugly,
useless and injurious hat. Why do we
do IL? I should like 10 find a good Irish
echo that would answer the question

Gaping THE WIGS.
Official Visit Of London's Lord Mayor
to the Law Courts.

A curious survival of medieval Gus
tom is witnessed In London on every
lord mayors day. This IL an official
visit of the lord mayor to the law
courts. In old times the sovereign
himself awaited at Westminster the
coming of the lord mayor I'm a chariot
OF state with sword bearer, mace hold
er, chaplain and %gorgeously liverled
coachmen and footmen. The forms
have been changed. and the visit Is
now paid to the high court, but the
spirit Of the act remains, for the lord
mayor opens his term in the Mansion
House with n ceremonial involving rec
ognition of the supreme authority OF
the crown.
The instrument used for expressing
this traditional idea Is an old fash
Toned cooked hat. When the lord may
or In his splendid robes OF office en-.
tiers the high court with his retlnue In
costume he solemnly lifts his cooked
hat three times from his head and sa-
lutes the lord chief justice and the
Justices.
The judges always wear robes and
wigs when in court. For lord mayors
day they have also n fiat black cap,
which can he slipped over the top Of
the wig. The lord chief Justice and his
associates return the lord mayors sa-
lutte %gravely, but do not take Off their
black caps. If they were TO do this,
they would place the crow on II level
of equality with the municipality.
The lord mayor, with his r%etlnue,
then visits the judges in other courts
TO invite them TO the Guildhall ban
quet. when the rustllng noise Of the
procession is heard each judge fumbles
In n drawer, pulls out Il little square
of black cloth and crowns his wig
with II. The lord mayor takes Off his
three cornered hat three times, and the
Justice on the bench bows. but remains
covered.-New York Tribune.
