Newest, Of course, are the small sail.
or with the large head size, the small
or medium sized brim and the rather
high crown. These are somewhat try
ing to many types Of women. but look
exceedingly well on the girls who are
"tailorish" enough to don them.
On the black and dark brown hats
white bands are the most approved
and fashionable style, while the burnt
straw hats are encircled by bands OF
darker brown.
And the smartest hats, of course
are those Of the extreme straws-
either very rough or quite smooth
and fine.

A Little Knock for the Aeroplane

habit Of mind will dispose a man to
look with considerable calmness on
the antics of those fiorid persons who
directly fall into a passion of tears at
their first sight Of an aeroplane In
the air. A conservative habit Of
mind will likewise dispose a man to
have a little faith In the future of fly
ing machines, SO far as the improve
ment" Of the present genus of ma
chine is at all concerned. The aero
plane was made possible by the inven-
ton Of the high speed gasoline engine,
which also made possible the dirigi-
BILE balloon. There Is positively no
warrant whatever for the hectic hopes
one hears expressed on all hands that
the world will see "navies of the air"

ing the navies of the sea, and the I'M

II there Is any warrant In sound sense
or sound science for the belief that

ject of the experiment was to produce
an antitoxin for fatigue; q serum that
would make the rabbits immune to

eddy treating fresh animal with in
creasing doses of serum from .

bit would react to certain degree

not react more vigorously than It

CURED to apply at necessary intervals

II Is curious how the bird idea has
clung to the art and science Of the n.y.
Ing machine In spite Of all efforts to
shake 1t OF. We call 1t the art Of avi.
alton, and the artist we call an aviator.
Making these two terms into English,
we would have bird-ation and bird.
ator. Clearly then, II we are to be con-
sistent in our etymology, we should
call the flying machine itself avis"
the Latin word for bird.
And yet we do no such thing. We
call the flying machine itself an aero
plane; and this word, with its two spe-
cies of biplane and monoplane, Is an
excellent one for the purpose. because
It means precisely what 1t says. The
word plane as now used In this COM
bination is not derived from the Greek
word which means "wanderer," tut
from that which means fiat"
What warrant is there for the asso-
citation of the bird idea with that of
the curious machines that are now
swooping and circling through the air
IN the skies of all the nations? Has
man, as a matter of fact, realized the
longing of the psalmist, who sighed for
the wings of bird that he might fly
away and be at rest?
I. for one, do not believe It; and
imagine that would not be alone in
my conviction were a poll taken OF
those who have some knowledge of the
structure of and the work done by the
nervous and muscular mechanisms
that enable the bird to fly.
When you look at hawk high up In
the air, soaring with rigid outstretched
wings, maintained In his glorious flight
by the pressures between his wings
and the atmosphere, you have before
you the pretty and inspiring prototype
of the buoyant aviator in his mono
plane. Maybe. Both, perhaps, rest
upon the same mechanical principles.
80 far as the buoyancy is concerned.
Both are, in their way, monoplanes.
But there" as Lord Byron says, all
likeness ends between the pair"
The bird is the absolute master of
the situation. The aviator is absolute

the tail Of the bird respond to the will
of the bird with the infinite nicely that

YOU CAN 7 ALWAYS lTELL

Once upon a time we saw a
man who looked the very pic
ture of health and we envied
him his robust appearance. One
night the poor fellow died from
appoplexy, to the attacks of
which he had for some t m e
been subjected.
1t was our good fortune, once,
to accompany a bright, hand
some young lady TO picnic.
All day she was bright and
cheerful, smiling he good
humor into the faces of her
friends. That evening we over
heard her apply to her physician
for relief from a corn which she
said had caused her great pain
during the day.
You can't always tell.
We met a successful business
man hurrying along the street
and supposed he was intent on
closing up some i'm portant
transaction in which he would
profit to the extent of several
hundred dollars. He was going
to the dentist to have an aching
tooth extracted.

About the enlarged home
stead proofs.


The following letter from the
General Land Office in Wash
ington will be found OF much
value. 1t was received by Mr..
j. f. Dibble of Obar and is pub
lished by his permission.
Mr. Dibble filed in 1906 and
later took an additional quarter.
He intends to prove up this fall,
and desiring to know just where
he stood, he wrote letter to
Delegate Andrews stating his
exact situation and asking him
to ascertain the rulings Of the
land office in such cases.
The letter received in reply is
given below:
"Mr. Dibhle may make proof
on his original entry when he
can show compliance with the
general homestead law, but
proof can not be made on the
additional entry until the re
Quirements of the enlarged
homestead act as to cultivation
have been fully met, but this
cultivation may be on t h e
original entry or on the addi-
tional entry, or partly on both
entries.
Proof may be made on the
additional entry by showing that
one-eighth of the area of such
additional entry has been con-
tinously cultivated for f our
years, and one-fourth of the area
for three years, but in such case
the cultivation must be of land
embraced in the a d ditiona |
entry.
eff, in making proof on the
additional entry, the p art y
relies on cultivation wholly or
partly on the original, he must
show that one-eighth of the
combined area of the two en-
tries has been continuously cul-
tivated for four years, and one
fourth of such area for hire
years.
"Should he make proof on his
original entry at the expiration
of five years, and not be able to
show the cultivation necessary
10 meet the requirements of the
law as to both entries, it would
be necessary for him to make
new proof on the additional ell
try at the proper time.
