REASON FOR PETERS TEARS
Wire From Bale of Hay Caught in
Mouth of Hippopotamus Caused
Big Animal to Weep.

Peter cried steadily for nearly a
week, and the keepers at the Bronx
zoo in New York could not imagine
what was the matter with him. Peter
could not tell them, because he had
never learned to speak English, and
he was only hippopotamus, anyway.
He just stood in his big cage and let
the tears run down his cheeks. He
would not eat, and all he would do
was open his mouth so wide that you
might have showed bale of hay into
it. 1t was a bale of hay that had
caused all the trouble. When, at last,
the keepers looked down into the back
of Peters great red mouth they saw
that an iron wire that had been used
for baling hay had been jabbed into
the flesh and was sticking there. It
was no wonder that Peter cried and
could not eat. The keepers fixed the
hippo's jaws open, and then one OF the
men reached in and tied cord to the
wire. 1t took three men to pull it out,
but they did it. and then Peter went
to work on the dinners that he had
not been eating

Despite the enthusiasts who rave
over young faces and white hair, no
woman really welcomes gray hair;
she may become reconciled to it to
the point of not fayoring dyes, but
that is all.
Therefore take every precaution to
keep the hair from turning. Poor
general health will do it; so will ex.
cessive worry or too much brain
work without proper exercise and re.
taxation.
Nothing with cause the hair to be.
come gray SO quickly as allowing the
scalp to be robbed of nourishing
oils. For this reason, too, much
shampooing or the use of drying mix.
lures on the hair is bad.
TONES that contain plenty of oil
are invaluable to keep the natural
luster of the hair, and should be used
regularly by those whose family has q
tendency to turn gray early.

THE FASHIONABLE DESIGNS FOR

Most of the Styles That Will Be Worn
Are Decidedly observation-disclosures
!, ton of One of the Most
Pleasing.

Like and unlike are these wide
brimmed, graceful hats, covered with
velvet, which our American beauties
will don when occasions call forth pic
turesque millinery. They are from
those eminent French designers who.
excel in hats of this sort. The brims
curve gently, the crowns fit we'll, the
designs are simple and there is an
abundance of rich trimming, but not a
hint of oyertrimming.
The illustration shows black hat
beautifully made. A mass of white
ostrich plumes like a small bank of
snow is mounted in wreath about the,
crown. The plume springs from the
front and toward the right side, and
in each of these models the heaviest
trimming is at the right. No other
trimming could be used with such a
snowy mass of plumage. The brim is
of the droopy variety, but curls up
ward all around and with more abrupt
ness at the left side.
Very rich, but less chaste, a hat in a
gray-blue, trimmed with mass of blue
heron and Persian ornaments Is made
