Beautiful Hats

We wish to make a very plain very broad
and an unequivoCa statement about the hats here
this fall
We have never shown such beautiful
and becoming hats as we are showing this
fall No pinch of salt is necessary; there is no ex-
aggeration here. 1t is very inadequately express
ing the millinery treat that is in store for the
women Of'Atanta.
The reason is not hard to find. 1t is season
of unusual richness and diversity of shapes and of
trimming, and of color; and this general fact COM
bned with the fact that millinery organization
is such that can show by first authority the
styles Paris originates Them puts this store in
unique position.
Through our connection with the Estelle
Mershon shop of New York, we are brought as
close to Paris as the distance will permit. There
are no delays. What Paris shows we show as soon
as it is possible. We show the original Paris mod
els or infinitely accurate copes---mlnutely accu-
rate, because Miss Price brings from Paris not
only the ideas, the atmosphere" of French shops
but also the materials that are necessary to work
these ideas out into the hats of the moments
STYLE
Is it necessary for us to talk toyou of lines
and sweeping sailors" and astonishing color
combinations and of like descriptions that would
tail OF their purpose when as matter of fact we
can invite you to see and try on Paris-made and
Paris-nspired millinery?

PoLYGLoT RIVER, THE DANUBE
Noted Stream in Europe Hears Many
Tongues Spoken Along Its
Course.

Earlin, Germany.-Where is tlaere
another river so international as the
Danube? 1t rises in Baden and flows
through Wurtemberg and Bavaria;
nearly half its length lies in Austria
Hungary; then it separates the latter
country and Servia. At Orsova three
uationalities meet-Hungarians Ser
vians and Roumanians; after that it
serves as a boundary between Rou-
mania and Bulgaria; and it's mouth
lies in Roumanian territory. AS one
passes from source to mouth, strange
sounds greet the ear: first high Ger
man dialects, as Alemanic, Suabian,
and Bavarian; then the language OF
the proud sons Of Arpad the Mag
yars; then the Servian and Rouman-
ian and Bulgarian tongues. The man.

interests. An international commits
sion undertook the deepening of one
Of the delta channels, and g joint
commission of the riparian states
removed the dangers of the rapids.
The scenery along the Danube is as
varied as the people that dwell on its
banks. There are stretches whose
beauty rivals that of the picturesque
parts of the castled Rhine; then
comes the monotOny Of the wide plain;
then it breaks once more through
mountain chains and again the scene
is wild and beautiful.
There is more of the beautiful blue
Danube connected with Austria-Hun-
gary than with any other state; and
this river and its tributaries cement
the heterogeneous parts of that COM
Rosite country more naturally and
more firmly than laws and treaties
can. Far more freight is moved on
the Danube than in and out of the
Austrian Adriatic ports; so that in
spite Of the possession Of a strip Of
coast, the monarchy may be called an
inland state. Unfortunately for this
government, the all-impOrtant Danube
slips from it by flowing far beyond
the borders of the land, yet it has even
in politics a directing influence. The
eyes of Austrian statesmen are turn
ed eastward Economically and polit-
ically the Danube is of such dominat-
ing significance to Austria-Hungary,
that it has been suggested that this
conglomerate state be called not the
dual monarchy, but the Danubian
monarchy.
The Danube was the scene of Rom
an colonization, of the fierce inroads
Of the migration of the Hunns, the
Avars, and the Magyars, of the ad-
vance of the Crusaders to the east, Of
that of the Turks toward the west,
and more recently of the growth Of
the House of Hapsburg and of the
disintegration of the Ottoman realm.
What causes this frequent reference
IN history to the Danube and its val
lay? A glance at the map will ac-
count for It; stretching from the
head waters of the Rhine, the Rhone,
the Elbe, and the Oder to the Black
Sea, the Danube forms and for ages
has formed the connecting link be-
tween the Orient and the Occident.-

1856. The fort was again attackGl
