MODES IN millinery

SOMEWHAT CONTRADICTORY.

Both Largo and Small Hats Seem to
30 Strictly Observation-Disclosures
Raised by tho Use OF
Monkey Fur.

Millinery vogues are entering upon
their solstice period.
First we see wide-brmmed hats
with low crowns tlaringly trimmed
with Understanding fantasies or with
their brims entertaining grouped trim
mings of flowers of patent or oil-cloth
manufacture.
Again, there comes into view q
series OF small hats more tiny than
any seen this season.
Fashion DEGREES in one breath big
hats for incoming yogues and contra
diets herself in the next breath by
showing the daintiest, most convinc-
ingly chic hats OF the most diminutive
types seen for months. And so 1t goes,
At the Grand prix de Chantilly, the
majority of shapes worn with frocks
OF an elegant severity and of perfect
style values were small to vanishing
point, nearly Almost all OF these hats
were made of white satin, white vel
vet, white, shiny oil-cloth, such as IS
used for kitchen table coverings in
most American households, and with
or without very narrow hemp brims
a tall interrogative looking feather
of single-blessed loneliness and Of
black, black and white, or all white,
would be the only decoration for the
most extreme-styled types.
Other trimmings used were OF SELF
materials or OF fruits and foliage Of
weirdly appearing guise.
Lace and even fur trimmings were
also In evidence. but the most peculiar.
uncanny effect noticed, and withal
quite the newest In consequence, was
the hat of bowlerehaped hemp COW
cred with white satin and with the
crown encircled with an outstanding
piece OF black monkey fur.
Is monkey fur to be society's sop to
the Audubon society for use instead
of osprey and other aigrettes which
are tabooed, so to speak?
The broadly, oddly curved sailor
was chosen by several well-known
mondaines, who depended upon black
paradise plumes for the trimmings al
most to a unit.
Black velvet-topped hats were also
seen and are evidently factor to be
reckoned with. Later on black satin
hats, in derivation OF the well-knoWn
tricorne shapes, will appear. But OF
these, more will be said later on.
Fashions for hats, mesdames, are In
the very fux of their making.

an automobile i'll which we mo-

being thirty ccents for the car

And cannon's awful roar;

IF man Is unhappy. this must be
his own fault; for God made all men
to be happy" While do not believe
a word OF what Epictetus says, II gives
me the opportunity OF remarking that
more sentimental nonsense is written
by men. and read by women, on hap
piness than any other subject except
love.
Happiness is incidental to life, and
not an end. Service 10 more than JOY.
and IL Is better to be useful than
happy. What business has any man
to be happy In q world swept with
the hell fires of misery and suffering?
The happy man ought to be ashamed
of himself. Happiness Is In inverse
ratio to success. The successful are
not happy. Discomfort Is the price OF
power. The head covered with O
crown Is a nest Of worries. The sell
fish are more or less happy, but man
who believes In the brotherhood OF
man cannot be content. The Negroes
are the happiest people In America.
The Negro minister who said II the
enemies OF the Lord should nail him
up in q barrel he would shout halle
lujah through the bunghole, Is typical
OF that race.
II would be q distinct shock to some
people should they have happiness
thrust upon them. They announce
their miseries as hen cackles the
fact that q new esg has been laid.
They carry their pains and aches
around as things to be proud OF.
God may not expect every man to
be happy, but He does expect every
man to be the master OF his own feel
ings. Laughter Is not inconsistent
with sorrow. The nightingale sings
In the night.
When q man sings In the storm he
is strong. Better cling to the paddles
than give up Strength Is more than
happiness.

A man In Maine who lived alone

70 think that q man who enjoys the
privilege OF living alone. has to die.
Kansas students work their way
through college by catching frogs.
The price OF frogs on the bill OF fare
these days suggests that after having
graduated. the students couldn't do
much better than to keep right on
catching 'em.
England has ss1 different kinds OF
birds. We do not know whether this
includes those war correspondents,
who are certainly birds.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 20.-Conserva-
tionists have won. q substantial VIC
tory In the bill providing for coal land
leasing In Alaska. Special privilege
fought TO the last gasp to Joker the
bill, and IL was by the narrow major
ity OF three votes aud nj the very last
moment that q joker which would
have invalidated the whole purpose OF
the bill was thrown out. The senate
and house conferees had inserted q
erning conference reports. which was
not In the bill as Il passed either
house. and which would have compel
ed the secretary OF the interior to go
into court to enforce the provisions OF
q lease and to begin such court pro-
ceedings within 80 days after. notice
to the lessee OF the facts constituting
such cause OF action. or the same
shall be forever barred. !.
When this provision was discovered
and eliminated by the close vote OF 20
to % In the senate, Senator Myers
OF Montana. In charge Of the bill. de
clared that no Alaska coal land legis
lation could be secured at this session
When II was made apparent, how
ever. that the senate would not stand
for this joker. the conferees hastily
met, eliminated 1t, and reported the
legislation back.
Previously. the indefenslble senate
provision for MAXIMUM royalty oil
Ave cents a ton, had been elimir-
In conference. as had also the provi
sions favoring the present fraudulent
claimants and giving them a prefer
entail right to lease.
