Position Hat Is Sure to Be Copied
Though No Longer In the
Greatest Vogue.

The fancy for the position hat has
been short-lived so far as Paris is con-
cerned, and London never greatly
cares for millinery which the Paris
ienne accepts as bien amusante. More
or less curly of brim, and with tall
stiff crown. these hats trimmed with
a feather en- fantaisie or floral
aigrette had a brief furore, and Ger.
tainly when new they were most ap-
pealing. They, could not. however.
bear repetition, and since people have
taken to wearing them they have lost
their attraction. For once the French
woman seems to have forgotten that
the fact of hat being chic when worn
by woman of one type may make
1t impossible for those who belong to
another
This style of hat is however, being
made for autumn, and milliners are
looking favorably upon its possibilities

TEXT TAKEN TOO LITERALLY
ren-Year-Old Julia Gets Into Bad
Graees of Mother by Giving Tramp
q Half-Dollar.

BE not forgetful to entertain
strangers: for thereby some have en-
tertained angels unawares."
The foregoing quotation is from
chapter xiii, verse 2. Book of Hebrews,
and 1t is introduced solely because it
constitutes vital part of this story.
Julia is ten years old and she goes to
Sunday school. 1t appears that on a
recent occasion the Sunday school
teacher had considerable to say about
this matter @f entertaining angels
unawares." Anyway, it made deep
impression with Julia.
A few days after the lesson Julia's
mother left her in charge of the house
for few hours When the mother re-
turned she went to a particular cup
in the cupboard to extract therefrom
one-half dollar. In this cup is kept
the family pin money. and Julia's
mother knew that she had put so
cents there before she had gone out.
But the half dollar was gone. There
was an expression of anxiety on
Julia's face and mother scented mis-
chief.
Did you take that money!" asked
the mother. somewhat severely.
Julia broke into tears Il gave it to
man that came to the back door"
sobbed the little girl.
Gave 1t to a mani" exclaimed the
mother. What for?"
81 thought he might be God" tear

.IND|ANS IN FLORIDA
Seminole Red Men Have Nation
,0f Their Own.
Natives Who Refused to Go West 70
Years Ago Are Virtually ,independ-

But Their Own.

Tampa, F1a.-Within the boundaries
Of the United States exists an inde-
pendent nation that recognizes no de-
partment of our government and has
its own rulers, laws, customs and Ian
guage. The United States is as much
foreign country to it as England or
France. This nation, numbering
about five hundred persons, is confined
TO the Everglades in the most southern
part of Florida 1t is all that remains
intact of the Seminole Indians, formerly
one of the most powerful tribes, numer-
ically in North America. The nation
as at present organized, is compare
lively recent, but as a relic of the past.
It dates back to the e-Columbian
period.
Just seventy years ago peace
agreement was declared which ended
a seven years. was between the Semi
noles and the United States govern
ment. The Seminole tribe was made
up of two bands of Creeks who with
drew from the main body in 1850 and
moved to Florida, where they were
joined by remnants of tribes that had
come in contact with the Spaniards.
They were hostile to the white settlers,
and caused the Americans great deal
of trouble during the Revolutionary
war. They affiliated with the Span
lards in 1898, and again showed their
enmity to the United States in the
War of 1912. A few years later the
Seminoles, together with large num-
ber of runaway negroes. began ma
king raids and massacres throughout
the frontier settlements of Georgia
and Alabama. In little less than a
Gen. Andrew Jackson.
The Indians signed treaty in 1923
In which they agreed to give up nearly
all of their Florida land for certain
consideration. Some, however, object
ed to these conditions and were al
lowed to remain, with the understand
ing that they were to live peaceably
and surrender all fugitive slaves.
This was unsatisfactory to the Geor-
gians, who demanded that the Indians
be removed by force. An attempt to
do this in 1885 precipitated the second
Seminole war, which lasted seven
years and which is said to have been
the bloodiest Indian war in American
history.
Under the leadership of Osceola.
who combined both cunning and hero
Ism, the Indians were remarkably sue
cessful. In one of the massacres Gen.

FOREIGN BELIEFS ARE QUEER
spanish Wedding Is Ruined IL One
Person Appears Entirely in Black
Some Other Signs.

In Spain the wedding Is spoiled II
one OF the guests appears entirely in
Diack, or II the bride looks into a
mirror after orange blossoms and veil
are fast In her headdress.
When a persons hair ends split, it's
taken by the superstitious for sign
tnat she Is either a witch or has been
bewitched. AS blond hair splits more
readily than dark hair, all witches,
spirits and sorceresses have blond or
red hair, according to popular belief.
Likewise. according to the standard OF
art
On the marriage eve there is often
much good-natured rivalry between
the groom and the bride in the Slav
countries as to who shall blow out
the candle. for the person who does
WIN be first to die" 1t is impossible
to trace the origin Of this superstition,
yet It prevails In aristocratic society
as well as In the peasants hut, even
as like this, that Ito insure the life
and health Of the children" the wom-
an must occupy the right side OF the
bed. In addition, she must not smoke
before her forty-fifth year.
There Is superstition In this coun-
try and many others against burning
a broom. The bud of birch broom is
used In Southern Germany as a pre-
ventive against erysipelas. These
buds, a piece Of yellow wax and some
other articles are enclosed in a pink
silk bag, secured with red silk and
worn on the back Of the neck. The
person must change his shirt every
