LADIES' HATS TO BE
 SMALLER THIS WINTER
Paris Disapproyes of the Wide Hats
 Worn In America.

Chicago, Aug. 22.-Along with the punishment of the. tube and hcbh,e ;kiIt comes the announcement thar fall and winter hats for the fair sex will De very much smaller. In ap- pearance they hark back to the joy ous days when men had the courage to saunter forth in the little pancake lids now emulated in the tintypes and cn the vaudeville stage.
 The powers that be in Paris, who say what shall be worn, have dis approved of the extremely wide hats recently affected in this country. Milliners returning from the other side say the styles constitute re- volution.
 The idea fthe designer is 10 make the head appear as small as possible and this means not wisp of false hair, hay, alfalfa, rag car pet, cotton waste or any other aux Hilary can be worn. The woman blessed with abundant hair will have to brush it down tightly if she is to be within shouting distance of the styles.
 The turbans are the most interest ing. They are rather shy on material but what they lack in that respect they make up in "style.' Designed

Committee.

Senator Mark Smith of Arizona, who
number of years during his service in
the House as delegate from Arizona, has
been appointed a member of the Sena' ,

Senator du Pont, chairman of the Sem

Women Know a Trump"
From the woman's Home Companion.

Attention to dress Is not the whole
duty OF women, but 1t is an important
duty. and the older a woman grows the
greater should be her care to wear be-
coming GARMENTS. arrange her hair with
taste. and be fastidious about her shoes
and gloves.
Precisely what is meant by the word
trump Is a trifle difficult to put into Ian
guage, but there Is not one OF us who
does not know just what a woman looks
like when she is y trump. A trump may
be dressed in silks and veivets and still
lack the air of distinction that Is the
badge Of the well dressed woman. A
wonan's gown, hat and wrap may be Of
the plainest and have cost little money.
yet she may not be q trump, but may be
so attired as to the fitness OF things that
the behoider shall take pleasure In her.
Not personal vanity but the pleasure
of our friends should rule US when we
are considering what to wear and how
to wear. II. Clubwomen are, usually
models OF grace, both In dress and de-

I'VE are not. however, by any manner

now. What we are confronted with is the
further revision and reduction Of the
tariff. The practical question is how can
the tariff be further reformed wisely
and fairly. 4a
Now, I feel with strong conviction
that the most important achievement SO
far made In the tariff reform. movement
was the adoption of the method of inquiry
into the facts and into the tariff generally
by a commission or board. And, next to
that, think the greatest achievement
was the adoption Of the genuine schedule
by-schedule plan; by which mean such
deliberate dealing with separate sched-
ules that they cannot get involved with
each other. and which abolishes the old
log-rolling system Of give and take, which
has brought upon us nearly all of our
tariff troubles. and will continue them as
long as it continues.
