Look pleasant" said the photog-
rapher.
The sitter raised his eyes and gave
a sickly smirk.
Your head just little bit more to
the left, please" suggested the voice
from the black shroud. No, don't
move the eyes"
Like a man suffering from a stiff
neck, or an Eiffel tower collar the
sitter tilted his head gingerly till it
reached the desired angle, and he re-
sembled dying fish trying not to
mind.
That's very nice-very nice, In
deed" said the photographer. Stay

He removed the cap as he spoke and
counted out one and three-fourths min
utes. Thank you, sir" he then o5-
served. You can get up. I'm afraid
you've been sitting on your hat"
My hat" roared the sitter, angrily,
regarding the hattened felt why,
the dickens didn't you tell me was
sitting on it?"
My dear sir" protested the photog.
rapher blandly, that would have
spoiled your expression"

ChIValrous Raphael,

All along the woman had maintained
that her little Italian cobbler was
sharp as a tack. The quickness with
which he caught on to who Tetrazzini
is and what she does upheld her &C.
tention. He had never heard of Tet-
razini and he did not know the mean
ing of sing, but all the woman had to
say was:
'Itallano woman-sing-la la, la. la,
la, Ia" and a glow of comprehension
lighted his eyes.
"Ah. schiamazzree," he said. "1tali-
ano woman do that?"
Yes, fine" said the woman.
But when she looked up "schiamaz-
zare" in an Italian dictionary and
found that 1t meant to cackle like a
hen her opinion of Raphaelo as lin
guist and a cavalier underwent a re-
vision.

CHAMPION "BULL-DoGGER."
PendIeton Roundup Secures Desir-
able Attractions.

able Attractions.
Dell Blanchett, champion of all
"bull -doggers, and his wife, Bertha
Blanchett, champion woman broncho
buster of the word, are the two latest
attractions to the list of features for
the 1911 Roundup which will be held
at the new stadium in Pendleton on
September IA to 16 inclusive.
Fred Earle, manager of non-com-
petitive events, has just signed con-
tract with these famous Wild West
people, which will insure their ap-
pearance at Pendleton for the three
days of the show.
Blanchett is the man who defeated
Buffalo Vernon in a "bull-dogging"
contest at the Fiesta of the Dawn of
Gold at Sacramento last year and in so
doing he lowered the worlds record
for this event 16 seconds. This rec
ord was formerly held by Buffalo Yer
non, who wore the title of champion
for so long and who gave the North
west people their first exhibition of
the gentle art of "bull-dogging"
steer at the first annual Round Up last
year. AS he will also be back this
year it is probable that some kind of
a match contest can be arranged be-
tween the two renowned steer wrest-
lers.
Mrs. Blanchett is perhaps better
known than her husband and as a
drawing card is considered superior.
For years she has been doing nothing
except riding wild horses and there is
no "outlaw" too unmanageable for
her to mount. While at the Round
Up she will offer to ride against any
woman rider in the world for a side
bet of $1,000.
Mr.. and Mrs. Blanchett have ap-
peared several years as among the
star attractions at the Cheyenne Wild
West show and Travelled at one time
with Buffalo Bill's tented frontier ex
position. Recently they have been
a small show of their own
in California and it was only with the
Utmost difficulty and considerable
igure that they were induced to par
,icipate in the local exhibition.

LIFE WAS STRENUOUS
THINGS NOT ALWAYS PLEASANT
IN THE STONE AGE.
Glance Backward at Domestic Tribula-

Make Us Thankful Times
Have Changed.

Away back in the days OF the cave
dwellers life must indeed have beer
strenuous proposition.
After you'd chased an antelope 81
miles through the woods and killed II
with a stone hatchet with an edge like
a grindstone you had to carry 1t home
80 miles and dissect 1t with a piece OF
flint that was as sharp as Rugby
football.
II company came to dinner you
couldn't boil can Of soup in Kettle
and serve the delighted guests with
something that made their mouths wa
ter. Not much you couldn't.
Instead you'd follow your cave-dwell
Ing wife into the back part OF the
cave, and she'd say just like your
wife does today:
Fool! Idiot! Wretch! The very
Idea OF your bringing people home
when you knew there wasn't anything
In the house to eat"
Then you'd go out where the com
pany was twlddling its bare legs and
say:
I'm awfully sorry, OIL man, but
there amt anything to eat In the
house. Just make yourself at home,
and I'll run over on Stone river and
see If can't kill something" You
couldn't even give him that old song
and dance about the grocer not COM
Ing
You'd have to wander about in the
Jungle, and finally, if luck was with
you, you'd kill something-it didn't
matter what You'd hurry home, and
your wife and the guest would be on
the friendly footing of the walrus and
an algebraic proposition, and the way
she looked at you would make cold
chills run up and down your spine.
It's different these days, and much
as we lambast the Gamers Of lima
beans and tomatoes and ham and
things, we have to admit that 1t beats
the stone agetall hollow
If you bring a friend home unex-
pectedly, of course, your wife will look
at you as though you'd contemplated
skinning the baby or robbing Sun
day school of its collection, but she'll
be able to dish up something!
If everything else fails she can call
up the drug store and get some ice
cream, and lie to the guest, saying:
1T has been so hot we don't eat sup
per now. We usually have cream"
For times have changed since the
stone age, and many of us, forgetful
of our blessings at other times, must
recognize that we are fortunate peo-
pies, when the times comes for a com
parison Of conveniences.-Dallas News.

there were stenographers who took
down the speeches made in the Roman

Loss Of Cows MIL

A COW that loses her milk between
milhngs is hard to cure Sometimes
It can be checked or stopped by using
one or more rubber bands around the
teats. Milking a COW three times a
day will avoid some Of the loss. Some
COWS seem incurable. and about all
that can be done with them is to keen
them to feed calves With. The fre-
quent removal Of the milk by the
calves will prevent enough milk &C

The Popular Handbau.

In the way OF handbags nothing is
newer than the dark. fatty folded ar
ticle, heavily beaded, and made with
or without flap. These bags are car
ried. as a rule, by long ropes of beads,
or of twisted silk, and the beads are
patterned upon a foundation Of faille.
Stitches Of gold sparkle among the
beads, or may do so, which gold may
be accentuated by the tiniest Of span
giles. The latter are used to pick out
the design upon brocade bags in light
delicate tones.-Harper's BaEar.

OF THE
MOMENT.

iarly known as dress" hats, are large
and nat, as | mentioned above. The
inspiration for these were from the
hats of a hundred years or more ago.
These hats are not all absolutely fat,
but are fiat In effect with a curve here
and there. Most crowns are low, al.
though there are few exceptions.
Garlands Of dainty flowers are among
the favorite trimmings, but in every
instance the adornment Is simple.
Hats Of colored Straw.
So the hats may not be painfully
plain, colors are the foundation of
their beauty. Heretofore dress" hats
were mostly of black straw, and If a
color was added it was In the facing.
This season they are vice versatile
hats are of colored straw faced with
black. The trimmings are in harmony
with the color of the straw. While
vivid colors are often used they are
subdued by this black facing. so that
the effect is not really extreme.
New lace wells are also in color,
and are In harmony with the shade
of the hat. How successful this
vogue will be Is a question, as not
every woman can wear any color over
her face.
Styles come and go, but plumed
hats will always be in style. OF
course. each season a new arrange
ment for plumes is created.
Plumed hats this season are not
overladen. They may be only two
plumes standing at the side, or an
ostrich collar lobster feather, as it
is sometimes called encircling the
crown. To give height to a hat with
an ostrich collar there should be at
least one plume standing, or better
still, an aigrette-at the side back,
of course.

LTHOUGH simplicity is the
keynote of the new mil
linery-there are extremes,
1t is just these extremes
that the well-dressed wom-
an should guard against.

feature-the hats are comfortable
