70 Clean White Fslt Hats.


The immense vogue for white felt
in large and small millinery form.
ls one Of the facts OF the season.
The perishability OF the felt is undeni-
able. A white felt hat should be inn
macuiate or it is not In good taste.
Here, then, are some ways Of remov-
ing dirt and keeping it In perennial
wilderness.
A white felt hat can be cleaned by
making thin paste Of magnesia and
water and applying it with a stifr
brush. Cover the surface entirely and
allow the felt to dry. Then brush Off
the wnitener and you will find that
the hat is quite fresh and attractively
clean again.
Have you ever tried breadcrumbs?
They are excellent cleansers for wall
paper and also for felt hats. Rub a
piece Of bread over any soiled spots
on the felt. In the majority Of cases
light spots WIN disappear. This method
Is successful for quick cleaning.
Cornmeal LIS another excellent clean
ser. If you can defer the wearing Of
the hat for a couple Of days, remove
the band and bury the felt shape un-
der very fine cornmeal Brush the
powder of after the bath of twenty
four hours or so and shake every part
icle OF meal from the felt. Readiust
the band and the hat win be ready
for use. Oatmeal bran win answer the
purpose just as we'll
Still another method for your IA
vorite light felt hat Is the cube of
French chalk. Rub It over the dirty
spots and allow the cleanser to rs-
main over night. With a stifr brush.
remove the chalk and, In most cases,
the dirt. too.
Art gum, purchasable at any shop
that sells artists supplies. will efrectu-
ally remove spots Of not too long
standing. It wears away as you rub
and takes with 1t the dirt.
Many little touches will give new
ness to q felt hat not to be scorned.
The addition OF new band is a de-.
cided contributing agent. A change OF
bands viii give variety. The ALL.
white band can be removed and a
silk cord tied around the crown. "A
striped band, when you are wearing a
striped suit: a silk scarf to match re-
vers and cuffs; a dashy handkerchief
knotted around 1t for q change-all
are expressions Of individuality that
give character to hat and that re-
move the wearer from the "just-likS-'
the-others'' class.
But the important characteristic CT
white felt hat is cleanliness and the
ways are here.

Morninu Grain Letter.

Chicago, Oct. 10.-Wheat--A better
demand was shown for cargoes and
parcels with holders firm in their
views. Our market viii probably open
easier, but on any fair decline we ad-
wise purchases for moderate progress.
Corn-weather in the corn belt Is
generally clear with seasonable tenn
peratures Cash sales yesterday were
OF a good aggregate. 100000 bushels
with charters for 100000 bushels. There
was q slight increase in country Of
fers, bat the volume was very moder-
ate. Local professionals are again on
the long side Of the market, but the
immediate course OF prices depends al
most wholly on the volume OF country
offerings. The cash demand at out
side points continues good and eastern
stocks are unquestionably OF very
moderate PROPORTIONS.
Oats-The undertone to the market
is fairly steady with the cash demand
not keen. We do not look for much
change In prices In the immediate f1-
SuRa.

Chicago, Oct. 11.-Wheat: Our
market opened easier in sympathy
with the decline in Liverpool, and rul-
ed very duh throughout the session
within q narrow range. Northwestern
markets were relatively shade weak
err than our own. southwestern mar
kets were steady, with less cash busl-
ness accomplished than yesterday. To-
morrow being a holiday and our mar
ket being closed, there was little DIS
position to enter into new TRANSACTIONS
and a general desire to even up. Inc
market is not weak one, but the
prevailing dullness initiates against
any sustained advance.

A Careless Hunter

According to Fergus Falls paper,
Jacob KaEler, who lives near Carlisle,
had a narrow escape while hunting.
He was out with another man when
a chicken flew up between them, while
they were short distance apart. Kah-
Ter did not fire as he feared he might
strike the other man. but the other
man was not so particular and biased
away with repeating shotgun. The
shot fairly rained down on Mr.. Kah-
Ter, one shot penetrating his nose, one
striking him in the forehead. one in
the neck and several about the body.
The injuries are not serious but If
one or two stray shot that caught
his face had CHANGED to strike the
eyes. he would have been blinded for
life.

Portland Eyening Telegram: But
the other day a story came out Of
New York regarding two hours In
terview between william J. Bryan
and Theodore Roosevelt. Mr.. Bryan
was In the city and went to The Out
look office, where, undoubtedly he is
always a welcome visitor; and as the
report has it there followed a two
hours, heart to heart talk with Col.
Roosevelt"
Newspaper men were on top OF the
incident, so to speak. There was I'm
mediate reportoriRl query concerning
the interview. What Mr.. Bryan said
about it, or whether he was inter-
viewed at all or not does not appear.
But Col. Roosevelt was asked the
plain, blunt question: Was the confer
ence about forming q new party? The
colonel laughed-in Homeric fashion.
as his admirers would say.
Undoubtedly 1t was an occasion 70
laugh, If the colonel has that sense Of
humor that Is suggested by the incon-
gruous, and we fancy he has. These
two men have earnestness, honesty OF
conviction, high purpose and courage
TO maintain their positions In COM
mon. In certain political fundamen-
tails they unquestionably agree; but
in doctrine and methods that would
meet the requirements Of public ap-
peal through the agency Of party or
ganizatton. as well as In their tenn
permanent in leadership they are abb
soIutely antithetic.
THAT trite saying, politics makes
mind. but it never has suggested such
ir,congruity as the possibility OF q
Roosevelt Bryan party; and all be-
cause these two men had a friendly
chat Of an hour or two.
