The Danger of Big Hats.

Miss Gertrude Dudley's warning
.toChicago university girls against
the huge hats in vogue this spring
is timely and well worth general
needing ,byhwomen. Prof. Nixon
Stanford of Boston recently spoke
on the same topic at the Medical
congress in New York. pointing out
that the. nervous ills and loss of
facial beauty. were directly traceable
to this cause.
Some of the. new hats are from
80 to 70 inches in circumference,
and with their vegetable and fruit
,trimminesaweieh, as much as seven
or eight pounds. To make the
head big enOuehto fit them a wom-
an must wear punches of rats and
rolls of hair and wire, which weigh
two or three pounds.
A mans hat weighs few ounces.
A woman's hat and couture may
weigh ten pounds. The nerves at
the base of the brain are affected,
veins which carry the blood to the
head are contested, the nose be-
comes red, the face fflusheS, and if
the big hat is worn continuously the
hair is ruined, headaches are fire.
auent, and eventually the face be-
comes colorleSs and wrinkled.
Of course women viii suffer any
thing for fashions sake, but per-
haps if they understood clearly the
origin of the fads which they turn
into fetiches, they would be less
welded to their idols. The big hat
fad was begun in Paris by Lille
Daissaint, a notorious demi-mon-
dame, and it is there perpetuated
by her imitators and not by respec-
table PariSiennes.
The Cleo de Merode couture was
borrowed from King Leopold's mis-
tress, the dip-belt was originated by
the notorious Eugene Malys, and
the ugly bang" which twenty years
ago was all the rage was invented
by Sophie rEtange. and became the
professional badge Of Paris courte-
sans.
The big hat is in the same class

Daysey HonorS Mother.

Saturday was Mothers Day, and
there are a few who were so busy
they didn't observe it. But Daysey
Mayme Appleton was not in that
number; no, not she! Daysey
Mayme arose early. and putting on
her best clothes, ate a breakfast
that Mother had prepared and then
leaving the dishes for Mother to do,
walked to the greenhouse, where
she invested in a dozen snow-white
carnations. Some may wear only
one" said Daysey Mayme, that be-
ing the badge selected for Mothers
Day, but l think Mothers can't be
honored too highly, and will wear a
dozen" Daysey Mayme paraded
the streets till noon, when she went
home, ate a dinner Mother had pre-
pared, grumbling because it didn't
suit her, and then, after telling
Mother how to iron her shirtwaists,
went off to take nap, leaving the
dishes. Daysey Mayme felt guilty
upon awakening. She had slept
two full hours of day that should
have been spent in honoring Moth
er. She got up hurriedly and dress
ed and left the house again, wear
ing her dozen snow-white carnations
and to every friend on whom she
called that afternoon she told how
sweet, how uplifting and how noble
it was to set aside a Mothers Day,
and how she intended to observe it
as long as she lived. Daysey
Mayme was invited out to supper
and when she got home at 10 that
night Mother was still ironing shirt
waists. Dear Mother is Slow" said
Daysey Mayme to herself in the
mirror, but she is Good Woman
and | am glad | have honored her
all day" Then she went to bed
satisfied that one good days work
was done, -Atchison Globe.

DR.. j. r. Heller, of Fair Play, was
a visitor TO the city this week. John
is a pretty good fellow, but, if, in his
younger days the "er" had been left
off his name it would have sized him
up about right. John has been after
us for the past several years to come
up and stick our feet under his table
for few days, but for some reason
we have not been able to do so. How
ever, we have put it off about long
enough, and we serve notice on our
subscribers right now that we are
going up this summer, even if it is
nece' ry to miss one issue of the
grand old rag. John graduated at
the old Patrick Military Institute,
and was, of course, resident of An
derson for three or four years. In
talking about old times yesterday he
said that he always believed that we
were among the gang at the depot in
the old days, and at night, that caus-
ed him to run more than once. While
attending college John would 20

the second one would fall near him
that was the signal to pull open the

THE "rENSYN PLANTS TREES.
Largest Forestry Plan Ever Under
taken by Private Corporation.

Chicago, May 22.-To provide for
future requirements in timber and
crossties, the Pennsylvania railroad
will this spring execute the largest
forestry plan ever. undertaken by a
private corporation.
More than 100000 trees will be
planted, making a total of 3,43O,OOO
set out during the last three years
In addition to their own activities,
the Pennsylvania road has followed
the policy of encouraging reforesta-
ton on the part of the people. Some
151, 900 trees and 100000 hedge
plants have been furnished at practi-
cally cost to private corporations
and individuals. Other railroads are
said to be contemplating similar
plan to that Of the Pennsylvania to
protect themselves against the con-
stant dimunition in timber supply.
