tons that truly there was comparatively
little space left for other articles. Now
all this is changed, and the small PIN
cushion, as ineonsplcuous in size rs it is
artistic and dainty III design, has re
placed its more bulky sister. Pin trays, of
course, are used but no matter how
many of these useful articles one pos
sesses for rings or pins, one cannot en-
titey dispense with the cushion.
The pncushOns, TO be sure, are used
more for brooches than for the ordinary
pin, and when filed with the aluriug
bits of silver or gold give Il distinctive
note to the dressing table or bureau. The
cushion itself is covered with soft satin
and Is more frequently than not stuffed
with lambs wool; this makes the cushion
very light. and one that a pin slips in
most easily.
The cushion is usually square, though
the fayorite French ones are diamond
shaped, while others are round-not more
than inches in diameter.
Every cushion has an outer covering
over the satin one. IT is in fashIOnng
this covering that the maker has oppor-
tuuity to exercise her taste. The ones of
scrim with n couyentiouuli2ed border and
center III cross stitch are simple and
effective. So are those Of scrm, hem-
stitched, with tiny corner designs in the
cross stitch. The scrim covers are held
in position 10y a lacing of ribbon back
and forth through the hem.

An important detail in the adjustment

sorry. is the secure attachment of the
hat to the hair. Large hats especially
are apt to Slip backward or To one side.
and this often throws the veil SO much
out of line that unsightly wrinkles are
the result The wise woman puts on
her hat and veil few minutes before
leaving the house She will then have
opportunity to see whether anything
about her headgear needs correction.
Most women do not use enough hatpinS.
one or two of the very long, fancy pins
are thrust through hat and hair and no
wonder the big hat carecus TO one side.
Several pins of the short, strong kind
are needed, and they should be carefully
inserted.

70 BUILD NEW PLANT.
Great Lakes Engineering Works viii
Have Branch In Ashtabula.

The Union Trust Co. Is Offering a
big issue of the bonds of the Great
Lakes Engineering Works, amounting
to $4,000. The purpose of this is
sue Is to provide funds for the con-
struction of the big plant OF the ship
building company in Ashtabula, Ohio.
When this Is completed the Great
Lakes concern will have four plants,
the others being in Ecorse, Detroit,
and st. Clair.
Ashtabula Is rapidly assuming i'm
portance as lake port. Many OF the
freighters from the northern lakes are
now using II as q terminal port, and
for this II offers exceptional facilities.
The tonnage of the port has increas-
ed from 100000 tons In 1900 TO 49,
17S.000 In 1909. Both the Pennsyl-
vania and the New York Central are
spending large sums in improving
their freight-handling facilities and
there Is every indication that Ashta-
bula will become one of the most i'm
portant points on the lakes.
Ii Is TO take care OF the increasing
amount of repair work that will have
to be done at Ashtabula as the port
grows, that the Great Lakes concern
IL locating a plant there. II Is the
practice OF vesselmen to have their
ships repaired at the terminal ports.
The bond Issue will be the only one
outstanding and hence IL has behind
II all the real estate and plants OF the
company, making II very attractive
security.

common was again dropped Saturday
morning and 1t is now offered on the
local exchange at SO.
Frank W. Blair, president of the
Union Trust Co., left Friday night,
for the west. He will attend the
bankers convention in Los Angeles
the first Of next month.
The Jaffray Publishing Co., Of De-
trolt, has filed articles of incorpora-
ton with the secretary of state. The
chief Detroit stockholders are Austin
L. Richardson and Frank b. Lawson.
Real estate men have not yet re-
covered from the vacation period.
Business property Is not In such de-
mand as II was a short time ago The
uncertainty about the situation in the
automobile trade is given as the
cause.
The Trombley heirs have sold to
John and Michael Oman and Hugh
Shepherd a 75-acre tract on the east

northeast Of Leesville. The track has
frontage of about three-quarters OF
q mile on the railway and a depth ut
900 feet. II will be held for factory
sites by the purchasers. The amount
involved Is not stated.
The Hudson Motor Car Company

100000 to 100000, following the
example recently set by the Chalmers

creased capitalization will be distrtb-
uted as q stock dividend to the pres

the purpose of capitalizing the big ad.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

DETROIT. Sept. 17.-Close: Has
wheat seen its low point for the sea-
son? This is the question grain dealers
are asking, and there are some who
think Il has; while many bears believe
prices will be forced still lower by the
heavy exports of Russia and the Dam
ube and small demand here. II In the
general belief that the recent bulge
came only from covering by frightened
benrs who found themselves short in
an oversold market. This condition In
believed TO exist In Liverpool. where
prices are advancing. although the gem

HARSH TREATMENT.
New York Customs Officials Conclude
That Only Drastic Measures Will
Curb Offenders.

NEW YORK, Sept. 17.-That snug
Cling by the very rich and socially
prominent will never be stopped at
the port OF New York until some OF
the shining lights are given prison
sentences. is the opinion OF Deputy
Surveyor George J. Smyth. before
whom most Of the persons are taken
for failure to declare dutiable goods.
Payment OF fine and forfeiture OF
the smuggled goods Is no deterrent,
he says, and the surveyor and col
lector OF the port are to work In uni.
son TO have some OF the many wealthy
persons now awaiting trial, not only
fined but given prison sentence,
should they be convicted.
AS soon as Collector Loeb returns
from his hunting trip In the Rockies,
there will be conference between
the surveyor, General Nelson Henry,
the collector and District Attorney
Wise. Plans for pushing the prosecu-
ton OF several OF the most fragrant
violators will be laid. When con-
victed. the district attorney will de-
mand prison sentences. II he gets his
wish, and he Is very likely to in the
federal court, the federal officials be-
lieve society smuggling will get a
death blow.
Tourists Worst Offenders.
Returning tourists. officials say,
openly boast on shipboard that they
are going to beat" the government.
They swear they have no dutiable
articles and, when cornered and the
goods disclosed, weep and protest they
meant no harm. When told they have
perjured themselves, they take the
position that they bought the articles
with their own money; that they con-
sidered them their personal property.
and that the government had no right
to levy tax on private property In
tended for personal use.
A fine means nothing to most OF
this class of offenders, according TO
Smyth, and smuggling will continue
until II is made plain that violators
will not be permitted to evade the
penalty, simply because they are rich
enough to pay fine.
Because OF the activity Of the Gus
toms officials II Is expected that the
total OF collections and fines for the
month OF September from first, sec
ond and steerage class passengers
will exceed the total collected at the
port for the year 1908.
II Is believed by the port officials
that the total collections for the port
of New York for the current year will
total $1,211,347.
