I am Illustrating for you three very
charming chapeaux-and from a study
of them you may get some valuable
hints for home millinery.
The Theater Cap.
Take. for instance, the little cap Of

filmy theater or dancing cap to a fss-
cinating little Winter tOQue by max
ing its brim either of velvet or OF

tight banding Of the brim on her
forehead. But if your hair is soft
and your face small featured and oval
or childishly round and full, this little

Develop it in a material and color
suitable to your use, perch a bow Of
velvet above the left eye. and you
have a hat for the Winter sports, a

So runs the old song-and in truth
hats do make the woman-they make

Mrs Katherine Hathaway Brltton,
owner of the St Louis Cardinals, who
is said-to have decided to give mana
ger Miller Higgins an absolutely free
rein in running team for the season OF
1914. The management of the Cardi-
nails has been criticised repeatedly on
rumors to the effect that Mrs. Britton
dominated the policy Of the team and
that the manager was nothing more
than a figure head. It was this alleged
state OF affairs that caused the Car
dinals to be dubbed the "Suffragets."

Laura, dear, I would want to tell the

than the extraordinary; to shun new
sensations and stick TO the old.
I wonder why nobody has ever writ

that moderation and method in living

We parents don't take enough pains
with our children to teach them what

trust so much to public and private

PIPED A BOYS HEART SACK
A Foreign Liquid Was Drained
Through Tube From the Peri
cardium of Youth.

st. Louis.-Monroe Rodgers, twelve
years old, is recovering at the city
hospital after having undergone an
operation in which a silver tube was
inserted in his breast and placed
against the pericardium of his heart
to drain a liquid which threatened to
stop the beating of his heart. In
order to insert the tube over one
rib just over the heart was removed.
The operation is the first Of it's
kind ever performed at the city hos
pital and Is considered one of the
most dangerous operations known to
medical science. 1t was performed
by DR.. Fred Hagler and two assist
ants. The physicians said the boy
will be well in a few days.
Monroe entered the hospital July S
suffering from a stone bruise on the
right foot. The physicians noticed
that at times his face became purple
and he showed signs of difficult
breathing. A consultation was held
and 1t was decided that his blood
either had CONCEALED in some section
near the heart or a foreign substance
had caused an enlargement of the
pericardium.
An x-ray was made and 1t waA
found that the ~pericardium was three
times its normal size. Only an op-
Grafton could save the boys life.
