Odd Effects Fashionable.

Aboriginal effects continue to absorb a
giant share of millinerial attention. The
appearances are wrought weirdest with
masses of osprey feathers. which are set
all round a small high-crowned shape
and wave about with every zephyr. Or,
again. the same type of hat will carry
veritable park paling of wings-a con-
tinuous mount. of course. Flowers OF
realistic character are used in profusion.
But it Is to be observed that such incon-
gruities are INDUCED in as white velvet
grapes mingled with giant white wheat

smart spky spray.
There seems to be no mean between the
massed hat with feathers or flower or
an extreme scarcity of decoration. Con-
Sidera BILE style attaches OF some of the
sparsely trimmed models, although one
Is wearied beyond expression of the hus-
sar brush. How regretful ii is that in
these days of cheap, quick plagiarism
nothing can be left sacred, although an
exception must be made in millinery
realms where the unquestionably real
and fine ostrich feathrS are concerned.
The prophecy repeated many times dur
ing the early part OF the year that flowers
would entirely GUST feathers this season
filled one with suspician that has been
completely ratified with the advent of the
season proper. More desirable than ever
is the black picture hat; not the f1oppy
extingufshing thing of last year, but
shape that permits the outline of the
couture to be seen. To the large major
ity the absolutely straight brim is al
most invariable becoming. although there

method that makes for distinction.
Another move in the right direction
that should receive the readiest recogni
ton is the employment of one. or at the
most two, longish ostrich plumes in lieu
of six eight, frequently used. The
massing one feather on top of another
was both ugly and inartistic, where
as the graceful winding lengths of
glorious lancer plume effect a lightness
that is infinitely more attractive, the eye
dwelling pleasurably on a movement that
stands out boldly and distinctly and yet
without ostentation. The black hat trim

shaded gradations as gray to azalia, bis

umph that stands well in front ranks of

NOVEL SHADES AND MATERIAL S

Handles Show Great Variety-Folding De-

There is rather more variety than
usual in the parasols this season, but
whether the variety adds to the charm
is a debatable question, for many of the
novelties are odd without being beauti-
full, and on the whole the more familiar
shapes and simpler details seem more
attractive than the radical innovations.

BEST SHAMPOO
FOR HOME USE

For quick, easy shampooing and
restoring the natural gloss to dull,
streaky, thin hair writes Mae Mar
tyn, famed beauty specialist, in the
San Francisco Gazette, there is moth
ing to compare with a shampoo made
by dissolving teaspoonful of can
throx in a cup of hot water. 1t makes
a creamy, cleansing lather that re-
moves every bit of dirt, dandruff and
excess oil and stops itching. 1t rinses
off easily and the hair dries in just a
few minutes.
This splendid shampoo gives the
hair most pleasing luster and fulfil
ness and will have the commentator
of every woman troubled with scanty,
short, brittle or faded hair,
1.-The alkali in soaps and most ready
prepared shampoos is responsible for
many scalp troubles such as dull,
streaky, falling hair-ofttimes mistak-
ably attributed to wearing false hair. "

Fads and FancieS.

Hair braids in coronet form, but wide
in the center and tapering toward the
ends are very much in vogue.
Besides the chiffon-veiled gowns we
have chiffon parasols, chiffon wraps and
even chiffon yelled straw hats.
Buckles are little seen. the new
corselet skirts have deprived them OF
their ornamental and helpful duty.
White parasols of silk or satin border
ed with a six or eight inch band OF black
velvet are very handsome.
Jeweled bandeaux will again be worn
in the hair. The most artistic styles have
large cabochons at either side.

Debating SALES PRICES.

Now that the question of trusts,
monopolies, and manipuiations of prices
is so strongly before the country, by
reason of the decision OF the United
States Supreme Court in the Standard
Oil case, it is perhaps worth while to
point out that while the STANDARD Oil
Company is, as the court stated, n
great offender under the law, IL is by
no means the only offender. The
Standard Oil Company is in control of
the oil markets, speaking generally;
throughout the country, no one could
buy refined oil, except from the agen-
cies of this monopoly. Every one had
to deal with it, and every one was
supposed to be a victim. At the same
time, it is well enough to remember
that even here there may Justly be
pleaded some facts in extenuation. II
is true that we have better oil, safer
OIL and cheaper oil, than it was posi-
BILE to get prior 10 the dominance of
the Standard Oil Company.
IT is true, in general in spite Of
whatever may he said about the grind.

true that complaints are made about
excessive prices of the necessities OIL
life, but these are not caused by the
great monopolies like the Standard
Oil Company; they are caused by the
mean little tnonopolies that infest every
community, They are caused by the
fixed price system to n large extent,
sometimes because those who hold pat
ents fix prices in this country, whllc
being quite willing to take far less
prices abroad. It is true in every com
munty that there is little band or
grasping monopolists who control food
prices, and who will not allow articles
to be sold at competitive prices. In
this city we all remember the case
where ducks were allowed to spoil on
the benches. because the dealers were
not allowed to sell them below GER
tain fixed price. We all know that IN
the selling Of boxes Of berries, punches
of vegetables of different kinds,
standard fixed price is the rule, without
regard to supply, demand, or competl-
tion, That is what griDds the faces OF
the poor. and what makes the prices OF
the common necessities of life high.
We all know that in this city, for
instance, there has been, and probably
yet is to a modified extent, a combine
that controls the prices of all articles
that are sold. and that this price is far
in excess Of the price which the farm
ers get who raise and bring to market
the articles that are needed by the
consumer. If the consumer and the
producer could deal direct, there is no
question in the world but that the food
prices in all the necessities Of life
would drop tremendously in price
There is no doubt whatever but that
the combine, while depressing the pee
pie, does not materially benefit those
who are at the head of it. except a
very few. A number OF those promi'
uent in the combine suffer from 1t Just
as much as the consumers or the re
tallers do. I, is a great economic truth
that the Standard Oil Company, while
obtaining a monopoly and absolute con
troll of the market, did. in fact, largely
reduce prices, and also give better oil
| It is true as a economic proposition
that any large combine or trust can nc
| this, If it is so disposed. IT is not. how
ever. true that they universally do it;
in fact, the rule is the contrary. And
while the Supreme Court was undoubt
edly justified in ordering the disso
luton of the Standard Oil Company
and its auxilisries, it is certainly true
that every court in the land could FIND
right at its elbow meaner combines
more oppressive combines, and moro
unjust restraint OF trade than the Stand
ard Oil Company has been guilty oi

it is simply political play, and as
such is TO be resented by Republicans.
because il is being conducted under
Democratic auspices. But even SO,
there is a signal and special inap-
propriateness in anything coming from
the Smoot rookery that would In any
way indicate discomfort with the Dem
ocratic measure at this time. For, it
will be remembered, the carded woolen
manufacturers waited personally upon
poste-Senator Smoot. asking fair
treatment under the revision OF the
tariff which was made two years ago,
and saying that if fair showing were
not made. and if the carded wool man
ufacturers were Disseminated against
and the like protection denied them
that was accorded TO the worsted
wooden manufacturers. the country
would see through the sham and would
be likely to go Democratic. Smoot s
ever-memorable reply was. "What the
hell do ! care II it does go Demo
craticln So that the Smoot editor Is
headed of from any whining complaint
politically in this matter by the OIL
hand and sharply defined declaration
of his chief to the carded woolen man
ufacturors; for if Smoot himself does
not care that the country goes Demo
cratic, why should bis editor care about
it. and why should this editor put up a
whine about one Of the results of that
Democratic victory as to which his chief
expressly declared. ''What the hell do
I care7'
On both accounts, therefore, the
Smoot editor is thrown out Of court
since his pleas are immaterial, irrele-
want, and inconseouential, both pollt'
ically and as matter Of citizenship
