and argued that he had been twenty
times shot at from ambush when
walking peaceably along the country
road.
All this talk about my surrender is

The Hat.

The custom of men wearing hats
originated In the days when they wore
helmets. These helmets were usually
made of iron or brass or some other
durable material and were intended
to prevent the head of the man be-
ing whacked OFF by some enemy.
II was a great deal like our present
day method of builuing navies. Some
one would invent helmet that could
not be carved with a sword and then.
some one would invent a sword or bat
the scrap pile.
Finally the iron hats became so
heavy and hot that genuemen refused
to wear them, and when an enemy ap-
preached they called the police.
So today we have the derby hat, the
silk hat and the straw. Also the fold
ing or collapsible opera hat. which was
invented for the use of vaudeville
comedians. A man in ordinary life
may snap his opera hat all he likes,
and never get a smile. but let him
90 on the stage and do II and he is
encored four times and paid $500 a
week.
The silk hat is worn by politicians
and physicians. However. any poll
tician south of Missouri and west OF
Mississippi wearing anything but a
black slouch hat is sent 10 congress
to get him out of the country.
The straw hat is 20 deftly con-
structed that It is easily blown from
the head, thus enabling us to scatter
gladness throughout life as We rush
in pursuit of the hat.
Hats are removed when ladies' are
present. This is for display of man.
ners, and not to exhibit the contour Of
the Uranium.
