rORESHADOWING already what
we may expect for the coming
fall season. the hats for late
summer indicate that we shall have
many bonnet-like shapes, tall crowns
and large hats few in number as com.
pared to small and medium-sized
models. Outing hats for July and Au-
gust are of felt in white or light
colors, such as Alice blue, champagne
and the seasons beautiful pink tones.
These are either all felt or felt and
hemp combinations and are trimmed
with scarfs, bands, soft draperies of
chiffon and wings or ribbon. They
are exquisite and, 1t must be con-
fessed, fragile in the matter Of keep
ing clean. But they remain present
able for some time and are cleaned
with fine sandpaper. Everywhere the
floating white veil accompanies these
cool-looking creations of the milliner
The wells are Of lace, in several va,
rieties, in coarse silk nets and in
chiffon. They are all washable and
add immensely to the attractiveness
of the hats and the complexion, for
they are worn either over or off the
face.

BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby was six months
old he broke out on his head with little
bumps. They would dry up and leave
a scale. Then it would break out
again and it spread all over his head.
All the hair came out and his head
was scaly all over. Then his face
broke out all over in red bumps and
it kept spreading until it was on his
hands and arms. bought several
boxes Of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time.
He had 1t about six months when a
friend told me about Cuticura. sent
and got a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent.
cake of Cuticura Soap and a box Of
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to i'm
prove. He began to take long maps
and to stop scratching his head. After
taking two bottles OF Resolvent, two
boxes of Ointment and three cakes of
Soap he was sound and we'll, and never
had any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. I don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuti-
cura.
II have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Soap several times since
to use for cuts and sores and have
never known them to fail to cure what
I put them on. Cuticura Soap is the
best that l have ever used for toilet
purposes" (Signed) Mrs. F. E. Har-
mon, R. F. D. 2, Atoka, Tenn, Sept.
10, 1910. Although Cuticura Soap and
Ointment are sold everywhere, a SAM
pie of each, with 32-page book, will
be mailed free on application to "Cuti-

ODD THINGS FOR AMUSEMENT
Several Little Tricks That Will A.
sist Greatly in Entertaining
Party Of Friends.

Here are some things that you
might do to pass away an evening,
or to provide entertainment for a
party OF friends when nothing better
offers itself:
TO find number any one thinks Of,
use the following method: Let per
son think Of number, say six. Tell
him to multiply it by three. Ask him
then to add l. then multiply by three,
then add to this the number thought
OF. The result will be &c. After he
informs you of the entire amount, you
strike off the last number, which will
leave six, the original number.
BY taking a long piece Of wood,
such as the handle of a broom, and
placing a watch at one end, the tick
Ing will be heard very distinctly at
the other end.
BY placing a garden snail upon a
piece of glass 1t will produce, by
drawing itself along, a very sweet
music, similar to the musical glasses
often heard. This sounds rather
queer. but just try it, and you will
have music equal to the guitar.
Provide a glass goblet about two,
thirds filled with water, draw a fiddle
box across it's edge, and the surface
OF the water will exhibit a pleasing
figure composing of fans. four, six
or eight in number, dependent on the
dimensions of the vessel, but chiefly
on the pitch Of the note produced II
makes pretty effect.
Mix grain or two of potassium
with an equal quantity Of sodium
add a globule Of quicksilver, and the
three metals, when shaken, will take
fire and burn wildly.

Sashea.

One of the greatest aids in VARYING
the white summer gowns is the use
OF the sash. which is the style as
much as ever.
The velvet sash Of the winter IS
superseded by the pastel colored
moires and the lighter chiffon ruches,
black in color, as an edging, this IN
ished with black chenille fringe and
flowers of the same at the ends, some
being decorated with wreaths of gold
roses at the ends in place of the other
decoration.
These are some Of the newer fan
cies that seem at once to become pop
ular, as they are shown in some Of the
most exclusive shops.

REAL MEANING OF MILLION
Some Figures Given That May Give
Significance to Greatly Used
Term-Distance to Sun.

We think and do things in millions
these days, yet. though we are accus-
toned to employ the term lightly. the
significance of the word million" is
really hard to grasp.
1t has been estimated that 100000
persons assembled in a crowd, with
due allowance Of, say, three square
feet person. would cover an area OF
6SS acres, or, to put 1t more c0nven-
iently. let us say 70 acres; or 1t could
be contained in a square having sides
SITS yards long. Or, again, allowing
18 inches to each person, standing
shoulder to shoulder, 100000 indi-
viduals would extend a distance OF
2S41 miles. The population of Lon
don amounts, roughly speaking, to
6,549, 900. Allowing Is inches to each
person, shoulder to shoulder, this hu-
man aggregation would constitute q
wall 1850 miles long.
In astronomical calculation it is
most difficult to grasp the meaning of
millions of miles, but some idea In
this connection may be gathered from
the statement of the time that would
| be consumed by an express train or
the shot from a cannon to cover celes-
tial space.
Now, the distance from the earth
to the sun is about 100000 miles,
and light travelling from the solar lum-
mary comes to use at the rate Of 1885,
;; 700 miles a second. 1t traverses this
distance in SIX minutes. but rail-
way train proceeding at so miles an
hour, would take ITS years to cover
the distance to the sun.
The circumference Of the eclipse
! forming the orbit Of the earth round
the sun is about ST., 100000 miles in
length, and the earth covers this dis
| rate of $500 miles an hour, 1908
miles a minute, or nearly LOO times
as fast as a train going at one mile
a minute. 1t Is therefore clear that q
train proceeding at this speed would
require nearly 100 years to accom-.
plish the journey around the earth's
orbit
According to high authority, the We
locity of a rife bullet is something
like 2,130 feet second, or 24.2 miles
a minute, and that of the projectiles
weighing $50 pounds from a quick fir.
ing gun is about 5000 feet a second,
"a miles a minute; so that the We.
locity of the earth is 1878 times az
great as the latter.

TO PREVENT SAGGING SKIRTS
Have Garment Properly Prepared Be-
fore 1t Is Turned Up to
Be Hemmed,

Summer dress skirts when made of
thin material will always sag after
they are hemmed and finished if care
Is not taken to prevent it. A good way
to do is to have the skirt sagged first
before it is turned up to be hemmed.
This is done after the skirt is COM
pletely finished excepting the hem,
from the band to the final fitting and
the last hook and eye is in it's place.
The skirt is now hung in a closet or,
better still, put upon full-length
dress form raised from the floor by
placing 1t on box, and the bias DOR
tions of the cores weighted so they
will stretch to the fullest extent.
After several days of this strain the
material will have sagged to it's full.

ured and turned up. Anything will

objects of uniform heaviness will do
for other weights.

in the trimmed models pictured here.
One of the cone-shaped hats, Of
which we may expect to see numbers
during the fall season, is shown in
the illustration. It is trimmed with
a full ruche of silk 'pinked" at the
edges and laid in quadruple box-plait-
ings. Velvet fruit, like plums, cher
ries or even apricots, set in these
ruchings make trimming chic and
striking. Velvet fruit, in fact, Is de-
veloping so much popularity that 1t
will probably stay with US and add a
charming note to winter millinery,
and hats made of felt in the ahape
pictured here are quite like to be
trimmed in the same way.
A model of black hemp, with mod.
erately tall crown, is also shown. 1t
is calculated to pave the way for e1'
tremely high-crowned models, Q!
crowns trimmed extremely high,
which Paris says, are to be vogue
for winter. This soft-crowned model
makes use Of the feather band about
the brim edge and is finished with a
cluster of outstanding plumes at tbs
back. An ornament made of plated
ribbon finishes the trim. poised on the
crown at the right side.

NEAT TRICK SAFE AND SURE
Breaking II Immersed in Tub Of
Water While Working.

With an ordinary pair of scissors
you can cut sheet of glass-a win
dow pane, for instance-as easily as
you can cut sheet of pasteboard.
The secret of this experiment con.
sists in plunging your hands, with the
glass and scissors, into tub Of water,
and there performing the operation. In
this way the glass cuts in straight or
in curved lines, without break or
crack, for the water deadens the W.
brations of the scissors and the sheet
of glass, says a writer In the Magical
Experiments. If the operator allows
the smallest part of the scissors to ap-
pear above the water, the vibrations
will be sufficient to prevent the sue
| cess Of the experiment.

will be incredulous of this statement,

ARE GOING SOME
Eddie AbrahamS First of
Managers to Post His
Guarantee Money

The Wilmington Junior League held
another enthusiastic meeting in THE
EVENING JOURNAL Office last night.
The Olive team was admitted TO sue
ceed Homewood and an application
was received from Melrose but action
was postponed on 1t until next We'd
nesday night when 1t will be decided
whether the league shall be six or
an eight club organization. Six clubs
are already in, although It is likely
that Elks will drop out. This will
mean the election of at least another
club to membership in the league.
All the team managers except Olive
filed their list Of players. Under the
rules the boys must be under the IA
years age limit. Eddie Abrahams, Of
the Wilmington Juniors, was the first
of the managers 10 come up with his
guarantee. All the other managers
will post their money on next We'd
nesday night.
Rules and a schedule will then be
prepared and officers elected. The
league gives promise OF being the
most successful junior league in the
CITY.
