way doesn't know whether to
thank Miss Dorothy Warrington
for showing women how to make
cheap hats or to laugh at her.
Anyway, Miss Warrington did two
things-woke up the Gay White
Way in midsummer and made a
real peachbasket hat for only "a
cents!
Instead of getting lot of imi-
tation things to decorate it with,
Miss Warrington was practical.
She paid 3 cents for a peach bas-
ket and with this on her arm
went along Produce Row snd
bought 9 cents worth of early
summer garden vegetables. Have
you guessed it? The basket was
the foundation for the hat, of
course!
Dorothy picked out banana
and two radishes, lemon-noth-
ing else. She got bargain in
price because she was so good
looking. Then a yard and half
of bunting and half a yard of
cheese cloth she finished the job.
Miss Warrington is member of

with her for the ball-shaped OBJ

shop, grabbed a revolver and tore
through the town for the COM

little ring of people gathered
around the invaders ball, and he
also saw the Marian roughly
throw the girl into the interior
of the ball and then turn to face
the people.
"Berthal" Harry cried in fren-

from his sweetheart spurred him

Is 1t because she does not know
or because she is indifferent to
conditions that milady insists up
on wearing the real aigret instead
of the imitation one, which is
scarcely less beautiful? 1t is hard
to believe she would buy the

and that great cruelty is prac-

sired plume.
This plume of the white heron
grows only in the breeding season,
and when the mother is killed the
little ones are left to starve.
The demands of millinery dur

inroads upon the breeding colo

THE MARTIAN INVADER
BY Frank H. williams.

The townspeople stood in won
derment about the big, ball
shaped, metallic object which had
fallen on the commons near the
town during the night. AS they
watched, the top of the object be-
gan to slowly revolve.
Look" cried Harry Crawford
to his pretty sweetheart, Bertha
Dunbar, there's something or
someone insidei"
In moment the top had been
unscrewed sufficiently from with
in to enable the living being in
side to topple the cover off onto
the ground. Then from the in
terror stepped being, fashioned
in the shape of man, but COW
cred from head to toe with Pc
culiar, tight-fitting metallic APP
pearing suit. On this beings
back reposed a tank, and in his
hand he carried the end of a tube
attached to the tank.
The town policeman, officious
as always, stepped up to the in
vader and grasped him somewhat
roughly by the arm.
Here. what're you doing here,
boz" the policeman asked.
For answer the invader point
ed the muzzle of the hose at the
official. From the nozzle issued a
thick, heavy, black vapor. AS
the policeman inhaled this he
toppled over, writhing In a fren-
ny. Fear seized on the towns
people and they turned to run.
The bloodshot eyes of the being
swept the vanks of the multitude
before the people ran and fas-
tened themselves on the fair face
of Bertha Dunbar. The look
which the invader gave Bertha
sent cold shiver up her lovers
back.

went to rehearsal wearing the hat
1t loked just like any other peach
basket creation that might have
cost her $25 or $50. OF course
the peach basket was too big, but
the stage carpenter at the Lyric
cut it down to suit her shapely
head.
Zone of the many advantages
this hat has is that the trimmings
can be renewed at small expense,
keeping up to date with the ar
rival of new vegetables in the
markets from time to time"
That's what Dorothy said. Did
she really mean it?

Mrs. Rose Kelley has recently
been appointed matron of the
Brooklyn, N. Y. marriage license
bureau. The principal reason for
Mrs. Keeley's position is the fact
that the presence of a woman is a
comfort and guarantee of protec-
ton to young women who go there
with their future husbands.
A bill has been introduced in
the Maine legislature imposing a
tax on bachelors past 80 of $40
annually, the money to be used as
a pension for such spinsters past
40 as can present evidence that
they have never received a sat
isfactory offer of marriage.
Miss Florence Pretz, Kansas
City, is responsible for the Bill
ken who has come into the world
to bring good luck. All other
oniens, such as horseshoes, four
leaved clovers and rabbits feet
are now altogether out of the
running.

One of the best fruit growers over
in Delta county has worked quite a
revolution in the appearance of an
old place which was quite run down
when he took it. He began operations
by cleaning out bitches by the use
of a road grader and secured the re-
suit desired in a quarter of the time
usually required for such work. He
plower and narrowed the banks and
seeded them to grain so as to do
away with the unsightly growths Of
sweet clover and willows that fringe
most of the bitches in all but the best
kept orchards. Waste land in corners
where fruit was not planted Is now
seeded to grain and as result he
will not need to buy from $500 to
5000 worth of grain for use on the
ranch the coming year. Thus he
makes his improvement pay its way.

Charging cruelty, Mrs. Hoover yes
terday told of her husbands almost
insane jealousy, of his charging her
with loving other men better than
himself and with striking her with a
piece of dried cake, the blow being a
very severe one. In the course of her
testimony the fact was brought out
that Mrs. Hoover was divorced from
her former husband, Charles Conlin,
March II. 1908, and that a month
later. evading the statutes of Colo
rado, she and Mr.. Hoover went to
Goodland, Kan. where they were
married.
When this evidence was adduced,
Judge Riddle stopped the trial of the
case and ruled that the contesting
parties have no standing in Colorado
courts, as they are not married in
the eyes of the law in Colorado. they
having been married within the time
limit prescribed by statute.
The Hoover case has occupied
large part of the courts time on sew
eral days within the past two months,
Hoover twice being hailed before the
court for violating a restraining or
der issued prohibiting him from ad-
dressing or in any way interfering
the divorce action. Once, Mrs. Hoover
charged. her husband approached
her, spoke to her and embraced her
in the entrance of the Christian
Science church.
Hoover is an employe of the Colo
RADIO & Southern railroad.
