BAN ON HEAVY HATS.
Mrs. Emmons Blaine Says They Are
a Mental Strain.

Chicago. June IA hat that
weigh more than -four or five ounces
causes brain fatigue. 1t is a mental
strain and excess baggage.
Mrs. Emmons Blaine, exclusively
fashionable and a woman of mental
ity, is said to have told all of her
friends that they were making a Sc
rious mistake in buying anything but
four ounce hats. They are a mental
strain, these big hats, and comfort
and good sense is involved in the buy
ing of these light things" h was
quoted as saying. Just now a little
French hat of black and white straw,
the smallest, oldest of things milli-
merry, is being worn by Mrs. Blaine to
all sorts of afternoon affairs and she
is striking in it. Mrs. Blaine may like
a hat ever so well. but if it exceeds
the weight limit. she doesn't buy it.
All of her hats are weighed before
she buys them.
And do you know said a clever
society woman, Mrs. Blaine all
of her gowns. They are SO exclusive,
so different and so lovely that it en-
tertains her to loo at them when
they have gone out of fashion, so. h
labels them with dates and names and
puts them away. Years from now
they will certainly be a most Won
derful and most fascinating collec-
ton"
And while the notions about wear
ing apparel that some OF the dlstIn-
guished women have are being talked
about. it will surprise some women
d who pay $50 for corsets to
know that Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt
went into a New York store the other
day and asked to buy a corset. The
clerk brought out a very pretty cor
set marked $25.
The ideal" and Mrs. Roosevelt
laughed. Il never paid that much
for a corset in my life I might DE
induced to pay $40 if L liked it very
much. but if YOU have one for So
/ think il will exactly suit me-"
The clerk recognized the eX-presi-
dents wife and looked astonished and
grieved as she took down a lot of
boxes and with her eyebrows raised,
showed them Onward to Mrs. Roose-
Welt.

HAD LOST HIS CREDENTIALS"
Salesman May Have Improved His Ap-
2earance, But Shave Cost Him
Customers.

Charles A. Cotterill has a grand and
gorgeous set of whiskers which, in
their own gold and tawny way, show
as many varying hues as changeable
silk under the midday sun There are
mixed up in that growth of beard all
the marvellous tints of the sunrise, the
South African gold mines, and the cir
u posters. But there is a sad story
connected with the facial adornment.
The first year that Coterill travelled
for a big drug firm of New York city,
he waved the whiskers up and down a
vide territory. selling much merchan-
disc and making many friends. At the
end Of the season he got a shave and
on his next trip the tragedy began to
unfold. Nobody knew him. Every
time he went up to a man to whom he
had made a sale previously, the fell
low would say:
You are not Cotterill. How well l
remember Cotterill! He was a merry,
good-natured, entertaining fellow, and
he told such good stories. Besides, he
had whiskers, and you have none. You
can't be Cotterill."
After a week Of this, Cotterill. ut
terly detected by the fact that he
