The Top Hat.

Although the beginning Of the "cylln-
der of civilization as it has been
called, can be traced back to the Eliza
bethan era. it is only about seventy
or eighty years ago that the top hat
of the present day reached its final
shape. Since then it has altered slight
~ in the dimensions of the crown and
the curl of the brim. but the hat itself
has remained essentially unchanged.
The top hat seems to have had its be
ginning in the habit of gallants in the
Elizabethan period of cooking up one
side of their broad brimmed. high
crowned felt or beaver hats and secur-
ing them with jewel. The French
court later developed this into cooking
up three sides of the hat and fastening
one with loop of ribbon. From this
fashion came the cockade. now used
only by grooms and footmen. The silk
hat of today was born in France and
supplanted the now nearly extinct
beaver hat of practically the same
shape. though considerably larger
London Standard.

Mr.. Wiedner to be 10000 pounds. The

The Masonic lodge held a special
meeting Saturday evening attended by
a strong delegation from Edgerton. A
candidate was promoted to the third
degree, after which ceremonies re-
freshments were served and speeches
made. Rev. Schoenfeld and Mr.. Whit
tet of sEdgerton talked interestingly.

ting MANNED for life, owing to the loss
of the entire fore part of his right foot.
The train, which is furnishing gravel
for reballasting the track bed in the
vicinity of this station, is run into the
railroad yards to clear the track for
passing trains, and youngsters of vari-
Gus age have been won't to jump on the
cars, which railroad men say are the
most dangerous of all cars to board
while in motion.
Max Swerloff, an Edgerton Russian
Jew, was arrested at the instance of
Mayor Trulson, Friday, for violating
the city ordinance appertaining to a
peddler's license. Swerloff had failed
to exhibit to the city clerk his state
license and to pay the 81 day for
the time he put in peddling, so Julius
DAVIS imposed fine of $25 and costs,
or Swerloff could take his choice of 80
days in Jail. mot Jail for thousand
dollars said Swerloff as he pulled out
a roll of bills. The mayor instructed
the justice that he had no desire to
make Swerloff pay for his subordinates.
The Jew had been selling fruit all over
the city.

The government thermometer on the
Lee farm dropped to q last Monday
night and outstanding tobacco suffered
heavily. Not many farmers had to-
bacco out, but some of those that die
had many acres. The heaviest loser
reported is Steve Haight, and he is saiC
to have had IL acres out. Corn was
well enough advanced so very slight il
any damage was done to the ear, but
of course the stalk was damaged fo1
fodder purposes.

Remote Oriqin of AIconol.

No one knows when alcohol was first
made 1t is commonly taught that it
was first distilled by the Arabians
about the tenth century, but there is
little doubt that they obtained the
secret from Italian doctors, who had
long been practicing it. Paul Rich
ter in the Berliner Klinische Wochen-
schrift shows that a knowledge OF
aqua ardens.'' or burning water.
may be traced as far back as the Sec
ond century A. d. to a Christian father
named Hippolytus. who possessed a
recipe analogous to those handed about
during the middle ages.
