BERI BERI
The Characteristic Symptoms of the
Disease.

And now comes a disease styled Beri
Beri, which may displace the hook worm
from the public's attention. A convict
died recently in the penitentiary at
Charleston, S. c. An autopsy has dis
closed that the diagnosis of the disease
as Der; beri was correct, the character
istic, symptoms of the disease, such as
dilation of the heart, were plainly evil
dent
It is reported that DR.. Pope, who for
years was physician at the penitentiary,
states that during his service there a
number of cases similar to those now
under treatment were sent UP from the
low country counties.
There are two other convicts of the
Charleston squad that are dangerously
i'll with the disease, but the others are
doing very we'll
It would seem that this disease, as
others, for instance appendicitis and the
hook worm, prey on certain kind OF
people. Convicts are subject to beri
beri, but not to appendicitis. Only the
rich or those having the means can af-
ford appendicitis. It is the man who
labors for one or two dollars a day who
becomes the victim of the hook worm,
which may be of many forms and
guises. If, as implied, the beri beri will
demand only convicts for victims, then
it should follow logically that alt men
who would avoid it should follow strict
ly in the paths of virtue and honesty
and keep out of jail and the pen.

The baeket ball game between Deni
son and Charter Oak played ct Charter
Oak recently resulted In score Of
Denison 20; Charter Oak 8. This is
Charter Oaks first season at basket
ball, and although the score shows
Denison the winner by big odds. the
boys at the Oak think they really
were victorious. and that the score
was not larger for the visitors.
Miss Rosa Stothman. q compositor
on the Charter Oak Times, met with
q very painful accident last Wednes-
day. When starting down stairs she
lost her footing and fell to the bottom
of the stairs and, was badly cut
around the face and head. For two
hours che was unconscious. Several
stitches we're necessary to close the
wound in her face. and the Times says
the mouth was enlarged about an inch.

The pastime of motoring. for which
women have gone in extensively, has
brought out a new line of millinery,
for what woman would care to motor
if she could not be attractively clad in
the doing? New materials of a kind
we never thought to associate with
millinery have been brought into serv-
ice, and the adaptation of kid, chamois
and raffia (the practical dust and

forehead and covering the ears. At
the back, falling over the neck, is a
short curtain frill of the same material
as the hat. This keeps the dust from
settling inside the coat collar. In
front they are cleverly cut so that
they can be pulled down on the fore
head to protect the hair, and rolled
back coquetishly to show the silk lin
ing when desired The trimming is
of the simplest kind. The hats of
chamois and kid have narrow stitched
strapping of the same material, and
under the chin is workmanlike strap
with buttons by way OF fastening.

Jewels or a military gold cord with

touch of sparkle to a duh material.
There is rumor. due probably to the
chantieleer influence, of the revival OF
the feather turban, but as yet few OF
them are on view in the shops. Blue

all shades from the deep raven blue TO
the Alice or Copenhagen. A combina-
tion of two celors is the smart thing.

straight brim. Later on in felt the
brim will be wider, turned up a little

the crown piped with contrasting
color-red with black, blue with red,

of the same material as our suits or
long coats (tweed or homespun) are
considered very smart for travelling or
outdoor sports. They are in modified
sailor shape, the material being
stitched in close rows over an inter-

twisted to suit any face. For children
