Rain and Cheap Velvet.

Don't get worried II you are caught
out in a storm while wearing a cheap
velvet suit and must do without taxi
for the same reason that bought the
costume lack of money. Trot along as
fast as possible toward shelter but
meanwhile don't hold up your skirt or
tuck up the tails Of your coat. The
cheap velvet may get very wet indeed.
but it won't be spoiled If you keep
your hands OF of it. Don't sit down
or lean against anything or try to
brush off the rain drops. Simply hang
it up out of the way Of dust and let it
dry. An act of Providence which would
have ruined a silk velvet suit that
you wanted badly but could not have.
won't injure the cheap texture that
you could honestly afford. Economy
occasionally brings its own reward.

The little hat, towering in height,
but diminutive every other way, is
having its grand day of triumph. But
as the sun climbs toward summer it
is destined to abdicate it's position
and give way to larger shapes. The
small hat will not be entirely sup
planted and may hardly be rivaled
throughout the whole season. Yet al
ready broader models are shown which
will shade the eyes and provide pic
turesque lines about the face while
performing this first duty.
The hat of white mohair faced with
black velvet and trimmed with white
vogue could hardly be improved upon.

PAWNED THE CHURCH ORGAN

Prominent in the Mexican revolu-
ton has been the half-caste or lepero
as he is called in his own country.
According to those who know them
the leperos are thieves from their
mothers arms. No theft is too auda-
cious for them and they always rely
upon having ready receiver in the
pawnbroker-a gentleman whose busi-
ness fourishes exceedingly in Mexico.
One who recently visited Mexico tells
of missionary who obtained an or
gan for his church and arranged for
number of friends to come and view
it. The evening came, but when the
curtain screening the organ was
raised the instrument had disappear
ed. The lepero janitor of the church

HUNDRED CURSE" ON A CLUB

One would hardly think that an up
to-date institution like a club would
be haunted, yet the members of the
Franklin Inn club, which is composed
of the literary men of Philadelphia,
have been rendered very uneasy by a
series of peculiar condolences.
The club appears to be pursued by
what one might call lone hundred"
curse.
Every time since it's organization
that the club has elected a one hun
dredth member another member has
died. The last victim of this coinci-
dence was lawyer, who died sudden
ly after attending dinner at the club
at which the one hundredth member
was elected. Many members profess
to scoff at these deaths; but there is
a rumor that an unwritten bylaw will
be made, holding the club to a mem
bership of 80. DR.. S. Weir Mitchell
is the oldest member.

DO FARMERS READ ADS
Comparatively Little Mall That Aver
age AgriculturIst Receives Indicates
That Advertising Is Read.

In a recent issue of "Hustling for
Business" the little journal issued
by the John Deere Pillow Co., is the
following pithy comment on do
They Read Advertisements? Refer
ring to farmers. The dealings of the
John Deere Pillow Co. being almost ex-
clusively with farmers and merchants
supplying farmers, and the article in
question being addressed to the COM
pany's local dealers, 1t can be taken
as a sincere statement of fact. Read
it, Mr. Business Man:
1--WE are talking about farmers
now.
They do read advertising and come
nearer reading all they get than any
other class of people.
1T must be remembered that the
farmer does not get bushel of mail
every day.
"He receives his home paper once
week, maybe daily paper, perhaps
a letter or two day, magazine or
two during the month and a compare
lively small amount of advertising
matter from time to time
TT is fact that farmers and their
families watch for the mail carrier
to drive up and often leave their work
to see what he has brought them.
and they read what he brings
advertising and all.
THAT Is why many farmers are so
surprisingly up-to-date, along nachin-
cry lines especially.
You have heard some people SCOT
at advertising as being commonplace
and wholly commercial
Comparatively speaking, there are
not so many such people. and care
full analysis of the proposition shows
that they are wholly wrong
Gladstone once said that the only
way to keep strictly up to date was
to read the advertising pages of cur
rent publications.
Let us see.
THE greatest things being done
are pulled off by organized business,
and business is our greatest institu-
ton.
Accounts of only a small portion
of the achievements of business In
the way of producing necessities,
conveniences and labor-saving devices
ever get into the reading pages Of
our papers and magazines.
Descriptions Of a great many OF
them can be found in the advertising
pages, and that is why shrewd people
in all walks of life read advertise
ments.
In this way they acquire a fund
of information that is valuable in sup
plying present and future wants.
1T also gives them line on the
steady progress that is being made.
THE point Is this:
Don't be afraid to send advertis-
ing to your farmers. They will read
1t If it contains anything worth
while"

NEW FAD IN WEDDING RINGS
Divorces Have Set style Of Wearing
Them on the Third Finger Of
the Right Hand.

There is a revolution in wedding
rings, which may be the outcome of
modern thought'-be that as 1t may,
this golden band, which stood original
ly for the mark of bondage. may now
be removed and placed upon the third
finger of the right hand-after pleas
ure trip to Reno and when the Judge
has granted the decree.
AS the most modish and strictly up
TO date ringes are composed of plat
mum and are merely narrow circle
and as the number of Divorces and
grass widows" are by no means linn
tied, 1t will doubtless resemble a
guard ring when removed from the
wedding finger and placed on the 9TH
er hand. All of which goes to prove
that women are no longer so nightly
proud of being married. the goal is no
longer wedlock. quite the contrary the
little bachelor girl appeals most
strongly and suggests a fascinating
spirit of independence which eclipses
even the liberty of the divorces stu
alton.
About one-half the widows spend
their time in wondering whether the
other half be grass" or sod" but
the mysterious widow" will not long
er be cause for speculation, since
a glance at the hands will at once re-
veal the truth.

IS INDICATION OF QUALITY
Successful Advertising Proves Value
of Product-Does Not Raise Cost
to Consumer.

The man who says II wouldn't buy
that car because its advertising in
creases the cost unnecessarily" is
making the mistake Of his life, says
John N. WHY'S, president OF the Will
lys-Overland company. He is over
looking an economic principle, tried
and proved, that has more than any
other one agency to do with bring
ing within his reach a really high
class product at reasonable price.
He is as much mistaken as the farm
err who would prefer hand harvest
ing to the purchase of an automatic
binder.
Money spent in extensive and judi
cious advertising is the best invest
ment in the world today for every one
concerned; for the manufacturer, the
dealer and the purchaser of a motor
car. The product that is not adver-
tised will not sell readily, no matter
how attractive are the quality and
price. The grocer or other dealer
who has on his shelves goods that are
not advertised will bear witness to
the truth of this statement. Whole
salers and manufacturers who do not
use printers ink will attest to its
truthfulness by the cost system fig
ures for their sales department. Any
salesman in the world will tell you
that advertised goods can be, and are
sold at much less cost than those UNI
known except to a comparatively
small coterie of users.
Successful advertising is sure in
dication OF quality, for without value
of the product no advertising could
succeed. The manufacturer and every
one connected with the distribution
would lose reputation and money, for
the public will not long continue to be
gulied. Advertising is no more an ex-
travagance than Is the use OF good
seed or good machinery by the farmer
Extensive advertising is just as eco
nomical as quantity production in the
motor car Industry, for it brings larg-
er and quicker return of the invest
ment, allowing for reinvestment in
materials and consequent large pro-
duction. 1t is an essential economic
factor of the eternal cycle" which has
placed American-made automobiles
first in every market in the world

| sUNsHADEs TO BE BRILLIANT
In the Matter of characterization There
Seems to Be Little Limit Placed
on Individual Fancy.

A pretty loop attached to the little
rosette that is generally posed half
way up on the handle Is an artistic
feature of many of the new summer
sunshades. This loop Is generally of
ribbon about two inches wide, and is
placed there so the sunshine can be
carried by slipping the loop over the
wrist, so it can swing from the arm.
AS for the handles, one Of the pref
test was studded with brilliants to
about nine inches depth. Another was
of Jet studded in the same manner.
Both the dome and the mandarin
shapes are shown in parasols, as is
the classic form that is always cor
rect. Shirrings of chiffon decorate
sunshades in band about the edges and
tops; sometimes only narrow strip
of the sunshade is left to view.
Another accessory that slips over
the wrist is the new handbag, on ex-
actly the same principle as the sun
shade ribbon, both ends of the strap
starting from the center of the bag
frame. Another trinket to wear on
the wrist is the watch bracelet, which
may now be had in all sorts of metals
and leather. For those who prefer to
use their own watches there are
dainty white kid bracelets, into which
the watch may be slipped, and it is
just the thing to wear with white
gloves.

"EARTHQUAkE' IN THE AIR

The suggestion that there are air
quakes. due to explosions of meteor
ties, and quite independent of earth
quakes and volcanoes, comes from
no less an authority than Mr.. w. +.
Denning. the astronomer. That such
explosions are sometimes audible Is
we'll known. Prof. w. M Foote has
recorded that large meteorite falling
near Holbrook, Ariz.. at $3.50 p. m.
on July 19, 1912. broke up with LOUD
noise that lasted half minute or
more and scattered over a stretch OF
three miles of sandy desert, more than
$4,000 Of the fragments a total
weight of nealy 500 pounds-having
been picked up and preserved. The
exploding bodies, of course, are not al
ways seen. A violent air shock on the
morning of November 10 caused the
shaking of windows and other effects
in the vicinity of Sunninghill, but
could not be connected With any earth
quake, and this has led to the conclu-
sion that it was due to the explosion
Of fireball high in the air. The
view is confirmed by the fact that as
tronomers recognize a few days near
the middle of November as period of
decorating fireballs. Other similar In
stances have been recorded. and two
meteorite explosions noted in 1871
on November 20 and 23-were esti-
mated to have created air disturbances
more than hundred times as violent
as loud peal of thunder.

OLD NEW YORK CITY WELL

Subway builders recently uncovered
an old well in the heart of New York,
near Wall street and Trinity church,
which is thought to be one of the six
wells that the Dutch burgomaster auth
orized as the city's first water supply.
The well, four feet in diameter, was
lined with stones. Near 1t was the
wall of some ancient building bearing
the faint trace of whitewash, and two
skeletons, which 1t is believed may be
those of British soldiers. 1t Is sup
posed that well was dug as early as
1877.

by a young girl on a gray chiffon

It was of broad gray velvet ribbon,
with a fringe of tiny pink roses at
each end and buckle to match. The

meet at the left side, where one end
was pushed through the flower buckle
and both ends hung right down the
skirt, the pink rose fringe hanging
near the feet.
