But the lace aid the brocade and the fiowers?"
 "TSe top of the hat is my great grandmother's lace parasol," Loretta explained. Tt was worn all around the edges, but the center was perfect. The lace on the brim came from an old dress my grandmother had, so though it is fine thread lace it cost me nothing. The brocade underneath is a piece of quaint gown an ances. tor of mine wore when she danced with Lafayette. I wouldn't let the milliner cut it. so 1t isn't hurt at all The flowers are some my mother had on a rousseau hat she didn't wear much and the buckle belonged to my fathers grandfather. who wore 1t on his shoes. And that's the whole story"
 "All that history makes it more oi a pity to cut 1t up."
 "Oh, no. 1t doesn't" said Loretta fercely "I want to take it to pieces in time to let ne keep at least few friends and save me from the general charge Of being too stingy to live!"

The laugh of little child will go further toward chasing dull care away than many imagine. One who has no love for the little tousel-heads that dot the hemis- phere will bear watching all the days of their life and never will be president.

"The first day put 1t on,' she re- lated, "I wore 1t to tea and Evelyn Tremp was there. Evelyn is inter ested in social settlements and she stood and watched me intently for while before she came over to speak to me"
 q should think she might ob- served the caller. "You must be we'll worth looking at in that hat.'
 .It was the hat" Loretta acknowl- edged. Evelyn finally asked me to subscribe to the boys camping fund told her with my usual frankness that I could not afford it just now and she shrugged her shoulders and smiled that sort of queer offish smile that is so prvoking."
 "The hat!"
 ''Yes, but I didn't realize till some time afterward that that was at the bottom of it. The next time I put the hat on I was asked by the treasurer of our church if I would just as lief give my whole subscription to the mortgage fund this month instead of doling 1t out at the rate of $1 week When I told him I had such a small amount of money at any time that il was a matter of installments or noth ing with me he raised one eyebrow and walked away"
 Why, my dear girl, that is thread lace on that hat and the brocade nev CT cost less than $15 a yard"
 Its even worse than that sighed Loretta. "The price of the hat is fai beyond my calculation. But let nae go on. When I was coming home from Janet's tea I stopped at the tailor's to ask about suits. He gave me such large estimates that I protested, and he smoothly replied with a glance al my hat: Well, mademoiselle can af ford it. Wasn't it absurd,"
 Served you right for combining business with pleasure"
 "That isn't all" Loretta went on My dentist bill was $10 more than expected it to be and when I racket my memory I recalled that had worr this hat into his office to make an ap pointment some time ago. By the way, did you know that Jean is pro voked with me?"
 "No, I hadn't heard of it. Is that the hats fault, too?"
 Tt certainly is. She had an idea that we ought to give Miss Watson g big wedding present-all our sewing circle, you know. As I had already bought handsome pair of candle sticks for her I told Jean that couldn't afford to contribute more than $1. Jean was satisfied for 2 while, but since she saw my hat al Dora's she hasn't been quite amiable to me"
 Well, you must acknowledge that hat could never have cost less thar $100 in all it's little life"
 That hat cost just 15 cents." de clared Loretta.
 "Nonsense!"
 q made it myself" Loretta wen on. And my only expense was tht wire frame that I bought at sale

OLD PENSION GAME
 IS AGAIN AT WORK

Washington, January Especial )-In the belief that the old ex-slave pension game is again making it's play through out the south, Representative Hefiin of Alabama today requested the department of justice to investigate. MT. Heflin re- ceived from M. A. Warren of Tuskegee, Ala. a copy of a circular that Warren informed him was being circulated among negroes. The circular bears the name of "Rev. G. G. Howard, general agent. " Howard Is said to be @ negro who last year succeeded in collecting 9 cents a piece monthly from other members of his race. This year, his circular states, the fee for widows and children to organize will be s5.''
 Towards circular is dated Tuskegee, Ala, December F, 1910, and 1911, and states that he has authority from Wash .ngton from MT. w. H. Willis to send in the claims of the ex-saves of The Mutual Relief Bounty and Pension Asso- clation of America and also the widows and ohildrens claims. which is s242 Rev. C. M Walton is laboring hard for the ben eft of the old ex-slaves.'
 Representative Hefin said he would have an immediate investigation' by the department of justice.
 The postoffice department has had af fairs with several ''ex-slave pension frauds of the kind that Howard Is sus pected of attempting to perpetrate. What was regarded as one of the biggest ever tried was recently ended by postoffice in spectors. That association had offices in Irop poln n parts of the country, organized as Hodges i"

BILL MAKES JUDGES i OFFICE ELECTIVE ONE
Gadsden Paving Nearly Completed-Ne- gro Enters Fnrmer's Home-Wish
 to Extend Water Mains

Gadsden, January 23.-e(Special )-Rep- resentative Brindley of this county will introduce bill in the legislature mak- ing the offices of judge of the Gadsen city court and the clerk of the same tribunal elective instead of appointive as has been the case in the past. The notice of the bill is being advertised and there is not thought to be any opposi- tion. Judge Disque and Clerk Brooks, the present incumbents of these offices, are heartily in favor of the change.
 The work of laying cement walks in the business section of the city, which has been in progress ever since the comple- ton of the street paving, Is now about to be completed. There is very little re- maining to be laid on Broad street and the side streets are also nearly finished. the job will be completed by the middle of the coming month.
 An unknown negro made his way into the home of Fred Dooley, farmer living near Mint Springs, last Saturday tnight and badly frightened Mrs. Dooey, who was alone in the house at the time. She escaped and notified the neighbors, but the intruder made good his escape. A search was made for the negro by the neighhors and if he had been found swift punishment would probably have been his portion. MT. Dooley was in the city at the time and did not return until the excitement had pretty well subsided. AL though sharp lookout has been main- . tained nothing further has been seen of the strange black.
 The city of Gadsden Is preparing two bills to be laid before the legislature and the committee having them in charge was in consultation with Representative Brind- ley in reference thereto Saturday One of these bills is to empower the city to extend itx water mains beyond the corporate limits and the other is to en- able it to increase it's license fees where at present limited. Both measures are very necessary to the city's welfare. But for the restrictions of it's present char ter the city would have been able to make a very advantageous contract with Alabama City for furnishing water. to that community before 1t installed a system of it's own last year

Berlin, January 2S.-At the second trial today of men accused of taking part in the strike riots in the Moabite quarter, the presiding judge declared citizens were justified in resisting police officers who exceeded their authority. During the disorders squad of mounted police rode down and ruthlessly sabered party ol newspaper representatives. Referring te the case of an innocent pedestrian whom the police had killed, the court declared that any one who shot down guilty DO lice.van was within hts rights and could not be punished. The judge who pre- sided at the first trial also censured the officers of the law. The prosecutor al the present proceedings said the guardians of the peace had committed excesses ir ouppressing the riots.

PRAISES ALDRICH FOR
 GIFT TO STATE MUSEUM

perhaps he builded better than he knew. The plan for branch museums in the schools was formulated some time ago, but we could not possibly have sent out the first installment of specimens for a year or two yet had it not been for this unexpected aid. After picking out all that we could possibly use ourselves and reserving abundant material for exchange there still remained many thousand-not poor, faded, battered things, such as deal CTS sell for school sets" but exception ally fine specimens, worthy of a place in any cabinet.
 We could and would have given fossils, rock specimens, insects and many other things later; but our duplicates in those groups needed working over, the work of year or two. The shells were imme- diately available. So we began with the shells; good group to start with, too, because the species are beautiful and at tractive.
 At the foot of our school labels in small letters we have had printed, From the Museum of the Geological Survey" With equal truth the line might read: Prom MT. T. H. Aldrich." Nine-tenths of the specimens in this first instalment for the schools come from Mir. Aldrich. The schools and the state are richer because cne man did so much. And he didn' { make any fuss about it either. That is the way generous men are built. They have no idea of how much they are doing.

Effects of Smoking

London, January 2S.-(special.) IA nota- hle physician asserts that smoking ef- fects people worse in winter than in summer. and he advises all smokers who find their health and mental faculties im- paired in winter for no apparent reason to accept tobacco as the explanation, and to smoke less frequently during the cold months. Tobacco is very power full drug according to this physician. and cannot be consumed in large quantities without a serious effect on the heart. It must be remembered that during the, win ter the heart has great deal more work to nerform than in the summer. for the cold causes the blood vessels to become pinched and small. It is thus less able tn bear the extra strain put upon it by smoking.

REPUBLICANS ARE GREATLY CONFUSED ~ Consternation Strikes Ranks in
 Chiffon County
  IS MUCH DISSENSION Republicans Have Never Recovered From Defeat at November Elec- tion-Mceting of Executive ls-as s4fs .fH -s CUmmittee s-'@ .'
 
IS MUCH DIssENsION
By F. M. WOOD

Clanton, January 23.-tSpecial)-The re- pubifcans of Chiffon county are in a hopeless state of confusion. The sting ing rebuke offered them at the November election has served to throw them com pletey off their bearings and like little children they do not know which way to turn or what to do. It is. the first time in the fifth of a century that they have met defeat and 1t does not set well with them. They do not know how to take defeat gracefully or to bow to the will of the majority
 In a vain effort to re-establish party lines and to infuse courage into their scattered forces they had meeting of the executive committee here last Satur- day. For some days the chairmanship of the committee hung in the balances. J. Osmond Middleton, who was the for mer chairman, announced that he would again seek the place. Just here hangs a tale. ..s.,.t.- .,,. ssT..4 n g,.ss.ssssf..i.t.
 Mir. Middleton was nominated for Con- sgress from this district by the republi- cans. but realizing that it was a forlorn hope, resigned the nomination and gave as reason that his private law prac- tice would. not permit him to enter the contest Soon after that he assumed the chairmanship of the county republican campaign committee and devoted himself to the work of the local campaign. He did magnificent work for his candidates, but the people of Chiffon were determined upon a change. They lived under one man rule long enough and decided that they would turn the mighty boss out to the pleasure of private life Mir Middle ton worked manfully to save the judge ship for the boss but with his candidate he went down in defeat. Soon after that the boss undertook to reestablish him. self. The meeting of the committee was called to assemble at Thorsby on the day that Judge Reynolds was to turn over his office to his democratic sue eessor-Judge Deason
 Pressure was brought to bear upon the chairman of the committee to change the time and place of meeting. This was done It the suggestion of the one time boss and the change was made.
 In the meantime somebody got busy and lk was announced that Middleton could not again be elected to the chairmanship. AL dances had been made between MT. Mid dleton and others which did not suit some of the leaders and they undertook to administer a lecture by way of failure to reelect him as the head of the party.
 MT. Middleton announced that the party had no right to select his associates or to lecture him for any friendship he might make.
 When it was found that he proposed to be firm and not be led by the bosses all opposition to his candidacy was with

These demands, they say, are an ire ducible minimum, and unless the govern ment accepts them unreservedly they will fight to the bitter end.
