Wide Selection Possible This Season
for Those Fond Of This Kind
of Ornament.

Pearl buttons lead in favor as trim
mings and for practical use in the fall
styles. They are in white, black,
mother-of-pearl and dyed shades. Most
of these buttons are very large, nearly
all in IS and 20 line sizes.
Demiglobe and cup shapes are seen,
with false eyes or black-rimmed eye
let's. Often the artificial ivory but
tons are dyed in two colors, or IN
black and color.
Metal buttons, like metal passemen-
teries, are largely Byzantine in effect
Dull brown, antique gold and silver
and hammered copper are some of the
effects shown, usually in shell pattern.
Glass and enamel buttons show ami
NAL figures-polar bears, wolves, dogs,
etc.-mounted in silver. These are es-
pecially designed for fur coats. A few
porcelain buttons are also shown,
painted in Egyptian patterns.
Among novelties, pendants, in imita-
tions of jewels, and small black and
red glass buttons are offered.

The winter hats are good from the
viewpoint of shape, size, material, and
workmanship. The colorings are rich

overtrimming, and in the majority the
size Is not exaggerated. Ostrich
plumes and fancy feathers, Persian
draperies and metal tissues play the
conspicuous parts in their trimming.

PROBABLY No One Thing Is More
Worth cuItivating Than Pure
Musical Tone.

Many women overlook the fact that
hotnlng betokens true refinement
more unerringly than a pure, earnest
well modulated voice, free from affec-
tatlon. In fact, it is in the voice
That the secret of the charm of many
women lies.
Not every person may have the adj
vantage of lessons in elocution. but
every person who will may cultivate
pure tone and pleasant voice.
Inc first step in learning to talk
well is to breathe correctly.
Let your tones be clear and as
musical as you can produce them. Did
you ever hear a person speak the
name of Brown so that it sounded
really musical?
MOST people pronounce it with the
throat almost closed and from the
front of the mouth. There must be a
resonance in the voice.
Do not waste your breath in speak
ing, but let your last tone be as dis
tinct as the first.
Listen yourself when you speak and
catch the first false note.
Do not speak in monotone. but mod
ulate your voice to give expression.
just as you would follow the signs in
music
Pitch your voice to suit the time
and place-not so low as to appear
secret, nor so high as to seem bold
and nervous.

Marriage Her Only Recourse.


In factories of the lower type the
girl operative is almost certain of dis
comfort, nervous exhaustion, disease
and premature old age. The lottery Of
marriage offers her way of escape
from these things, says Robert Haven
Schauffler, in Success Magazine. So
she escapes, but at some risk to her.
self, to the community and to the
America of the next generation.
How do American factory girls feel
about the marriage question?
Rather dubious. All in all, they con-
slider matrimony a profound failure.
So far as / can determine, only three
of them in every ten believe that more
marriages turn out happily than I'M
happily.
But there is another question about
which many seem to be still more du-
bious. That is the question of staying
single.
'Marry?"
Helen D. burst for a moment into
cynical laughter. Then the weary lines
came back around her mouth.

large, and trimmed in many ways. The
trimming is selected with regard to
the age of the wearer, for the beaver
hat is no respecter of ages, and is
worn by the little miss and the mature
matron.
Three examples of this thoroughly
practical hat are shown here. A
pretty turban shape is finished with
a single broad plume and Persian silk
fashioned into an ornament and drape.
This Persian shows touches of gold.
The hat is in tones of blue and green
belonging to the peacock colorings.
A lovely tricorn in black and white
is trimmed with a plush ornament and
a spray of short white and black half
plumes mounted three in the cluster.
A smart black aigrette garnishes the
pompon trimming.
Abe large shape in petunia color
is designed for a miss, and Is there
tore simply trimmed with big bow
made of shaded MORE ribbon. The
lines of the fiat shape are almost un-
broken.
These hats have much to recon-
mend them. They are durable and
comfortable. as well as pretty and
fashionable. The fortunate possessor
of last years beaver will find It
easy to remodel, and the hat is a good
investment. JULIA BoTToMLEY.

next door to Harry" Clay. He de-
scribes Clay as being the possessor
of remarkably long ears and prodi-
giously big feet. His favorite attitude
was sitting, book in hand, with feet
elevated, leaning against a tree. He
would always stop and converse pleas
antly with young Cooper whenever
they met and the latter has always
cherished his memory in his heart of
hearts. The opposite, however, is
true in the case of Thomas H. Ben
ton. The Coopers removed from Ken
tucky to Clay county, Missouri, in
1887. Mr. Cooper's father became a
close political associate and trusted
lieutenant of Benton. He managed
Benton's campaigns in that section
the state and the great Missourian
was a frequent visitor at the Cooper
home. On one of these occasions the
younger Cooper was tempted to whip
Benton. MY father" said he, in
reminiscent mood, was a talking
man, and could make a better stump
speech than Benton. At one time
when the latter was spending the
night at >our house my father said
referring to me, This young man is
not going to vote with us this year.
Benton, In loud enraged tone,
roared, ''if he was my son I'd disin-
herit him.
I'D have given all was worth"
said Uncle John, with vehemence, "if
he had been young man of my own
age so I could have thrashed him"

may put this earth in the scrap heap.
The professor has no doubt that such
an end will come to the earth, but he
makes no attempt to say when the
event will occur. Those who know
about the eminent astronomer and
his work do not doubt his word, of
course; and those who do not know
may rest assured that Professor
Lowell is amply qualified to render
an opinion on this important subject.
The probable nature of the end of
the world, as the conclusions of the
scientists show, will be a drop into
the sun; but Professor Lowell says
we shall have advance knowledge of
this, and he knows. AS the scien-
lists have figured 1t out there Is
somewhere in the remote confines of
space great mass of matter-once a
world, but now dead-hurtling toward
our sun. When it hits the bull's-eye,
as 1t is bound to do some day, our
little hunk of mud will cease to exist
1t Is we'll for our peace of mind
that no such dead world is at present
within dangerous proximity. Yet who
knows what day the morning papers
may announce that one has been dis
covered by aid of the suns light re-
| fiected upon it as it enters our little
circle-butting into our society, SO to
speak. While it would then be GER
tain the end of the world was at
hand, still, there would be ample time
w m ho foh la
About 27 years would elapse from the
time 1t was discovered by some as
tronomer with his telescope until the
fatal mass could be seen with the
naked eye, and not until three years
later would 1t appear as large as the
brightest stars in the heavens. Nearly
three years more and our seasons
would begin to change, the days be-
coming longer. The beginning of the
snd would come about five months
later. The stranger would not strike
our little planet, but would pass so
close in its dash to the sun that the
earth would turn and follow until, to-
gether, they would drop silently into
the sun, like couple Of dust specks
into roaring furnace fire.
Professor Lowell, who has SO calm
ly announced the probability Of this
startling end to all earthly hopes and
fsars, was born at Boston, Mass,
March 10, 1855. Graduating from
Harvard in 1875. he continued the
study Of astronomy in many parts of
the world until 1894, when he estab-
lished the Lowell Observatory at
Flagstaff, Ariz. Being a fellow in
nearly all the important scientific and
astronomical associations Of Europe
and America. his opinions have long
been accepted quite generally as au.
thoritative. His odd theory concern.
ing the end Of the world, therefore,
has aroused no end of controversy
among men of science.

TAFT IS INTERESTED
IN LEGISLATION TO.
p, PROTECT NIAGARA
Asks Speakers Aid-Con-
fers With Civic Associa=
! TONS Secretary.

President Taft is making an effort to
get some legislation during the extra
session Of Congress to protect the wa
tiers of Niagara Falls. He has asked
Speaker Clark, of the House, to dS
something in that body, and today con-
ferred with Secretary Richard B. Wa
trous, Of the American Civic Associa-
ton.
The protective terms of the Burton
bill expire tc morrow, and unless some
thing is done at once the falls will be
turned over to private interests.
Speaker Clark told the President that
he was interested in protecting the
falls, but that he could not promise any
general legislation at this time. He in
timated, however, that at the end of the
extra session something might be done.
Senator Bacon this morning invited
the President to visit Atlanta on Oc-
tober II, when the citizens of that city
will unveil a monument concentrating
the peace between the States. This
matter strongly appeals to the Execu-
tive, and he told the Senator that II
possible he would arrange to go South
cnce more.
Florida wants to entertain the Presi-
dent too. A delegation headed by Sen
etor Bryan and Representative Clark
today asked the Executive to be pres
emit at the opening of the Florida East
Coast railroad to Key West. The Presi-
dent did not accept the invitation at
this time.
President Taft received today the
copy of q resolution adopted by the
house of delegates of the American
Medical Association in annual session
at Los Angeles, Cal This resolution in
dorses the amendments to the pure
food law recommended by the President
in his recent special message to Con-

Petition of Chesapeake
And Ohio Is Granted

Permission to charge a higher rate OF
fare for through passenger traffic than
the aggregate of the intermediate fares
between points to and from Washing
ton, has been granted the Chesapeake
and Ohio railroad by the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
The present rate of fare for through
traffic to all points to and from Wash
ington will remain in force until the
commission renders a decision in the
cases of the Washington Southern and
the Southern railroad cases, having to
do with the rates charged from Char
lottesville to Washington and Alexan-
dria to Washington.
In its petition asking permission TO
charge the higher rate for through traf-
fic In violation Of section four of the
Interstate commerce law, the railroad
sets forth that its fares between Char
lottesville and Washington and AleXan-
dria and Washington are covered by
agreements with the Southern railway
and the Washington Southern railway,
respectively. The Chesapeake and Ohio
uses the tracks of these two roads be-
tween Washington and Charlottesville,
and has binding agreements to respect
their fares ~
