ingredients of a Homemade Hat.
Speaking of millinery. the fault Of
most women who trim their own
chapeaux is that they suffer under the
delusion that the more on the hat the
better. What a horror! as the French
say. Do not, beg of you, empty your
scrap bag on your hat shape.
The other day saw a homemade
hat in a street car. It was a sailor
shape. and ranged around the crown as
far as they would reach. counting
from left to right, were moth eaten
wing, scanty frill OF lace, a paste
buckle, bunch of violets and a little
bow.
Now, that may be a museum, but II
is not hat.
Every woman in the United States
can trim her own hats. Yes. I know
what I'm saying. Let me prove 1t to
you.
But first she must study her own
face. Do not be afraid to look into
the mirror, and look plenty OF times
and long as possible. In most cases
this will not be vanity. What want
you to do is to study your own facial
contour-back, front and side. They
say that when Queen Elizabeth grew
old she never would look into a mir
ror, but trusted to the ladies of the
court to fix her up. and that to get
even with her they painted her cheeks
white and her nose red. Well. / say.
served her right for being so foolish.
The woman who doesn't study her own
face before buying a hat is just as big

you need to improve your natural out
lines. buy 1t large enough. Remember

ANTI=BETTING LAW
NOT VIOLATED
BY LYNCH
Small Crowd Goes to Witness
COursing, but the "Test"
Proves FizzIe

Mike Lynch of Menlo park is the
man who did not test the Otis Walker
anti betting bill A couple of days
ago the man with the Celtic name
caused furore in sporting circles
when he announced that he was going
to do the big act by holding a cours-
ing meet which was scheduled to take
place at Menlo park yesterday, and
betting under the auction pool system
was to be held. Mike represented
himself as the leader of the Menlo
park coursing club. and his declara
tion was taken seriously, as he pro-
fessed to have the backing of Thomas
H. Williams and Jerry O'Shea, who
are the leaders OF horse racing and
scoursing. respectfully.
A bunch of leashinen from the city
headed by Jerry O'Shea, made the trip
There were 200 or more persons on
the field which is located about two
miles outside of Menlo park. Among
those present to see the law enforced
were District Attorney Bullock
Sheriff Chatham Under Sheriff Bart
lett and Justice of the Peace Harmon.
Lynch, who is the village cutup, ar
rived about o'clock with six grey
hounds, half dozen sickly hares, and
to fill the position of judge, and he
mounted a steed.
When Galtemore and Tralees Last.
lhe HfSt Drace OF MOUNDS, We're slipped,
Lynch tried TO follow them on horse
back but after riding short distance
he fell off his horse.
The crowd then realized that they
had been bunkoed, and the county Off
cials concluded that there was not
much chance of the law being vfo-
lated. Mike flashed a dollar and tried
to make a bet, but he was without
a taker
Finally Lynch got one of his hench-
men to pass the hat among the crowd
and Sc was collected. and Mike and his
followers retired to steam beer
resort.
Jerry O'Shea of Ingleside coursing
park said that his name was used
without authority. and that he was in
no way mixed up with the Menlo park
coursing club. He said that he in
tended to test the Walker law
and the test would be made soon.

is giving considerable weight to
Hague, but expects to overcome this
disadvantage by his quickness, in
which he excels the Yorkshireman.
Langford is a strong favorite in the
betting, several wagers having been
made at to on him to win. Not
much money has been wagered at these
figures however. and it is likely that
Hague's stock viii improve when the
Yorkshiremen arrive at the ringside
