LARGE OR SMALL2

Ever is the question OF millinery an IN
teresting one. and just now the main
points Of discussion center around the
size of hats for tie coming season. Are
they to be large or small? That is the
question. The answer holds promise of
becomingncss for all types Of women,
for there are just as many large hats
as small ones in the planning of miIli-
ners.
If you have a smart basque costume,
by all means wear a small hat Choose
a turban Of feathers, with a smart wing
poised at the back and fitting down over
the well-smoothed hair at an angle that
shows the couture at one side. On hats
of all sizes there will be a general use
Of wings made of barnyard feathers that
allow. the wearer to defy the law IL these
hats happen to be brought in through
the custOmhouse.
The large hat will best find its express
sion in black velvet In simple style il
is Just as attractive as in the ornate
evening models. Black velvet will al
ways be appreciated as an artistic crown
to costume of any color. There is a
round shape that lifts at the left side
that is recommended by a milliner who
is noted for her artistic eye. 1t has the
simplicity Of trimming that should ap-
peal to all. A band of ribbon encircles
the crown and Opaque beads of coral are
distributed at intervals OF two inches,
with a buckle of beads at one side This
trimming of beads, by the way, is one
CT the features that receives instant sue
cess. 1t is easily applied, colorful, and
unusual. 1t bids fair to supplant the more
expensive type of ornament. Use the
beads by all means; they are the latest.

AstroIogy finds that this is an I'M
certain day IN which the stars send
mingled good and bad influences to the
earth. Although Mercury and the sun are
in benefic aspect. Venus, Uranus and
Neptune are adverse.
The new moon Of this date falls in
the fifth house with Saturn in square
to the ascendant This Is interpreted
as Indicating distress and privations in
many countries, and English soothsayers
foresee trouble for King George.
Theaters and places OF amusement will
suffer through the month and until late in
October, when the omen is encouraging.
Venus is In q place held to signify
danger to the health Of the people. Epl-
denies Of disease. plaques and pestilence
are predicted. There is a warning sign
for women.
Today is not a favorable time for any
thing that has 10 do with publicity. Edi-
tors and publishers are subject to a
rule believed to cause large expenditures
and loss of money.
The time is reasonably suspicious for
seeking positions or promotions. Those
who are dissatisfied and impatient. how
ever. will experience severe disappoint-
ments.
It is not a fortunate sway for phi
losophers, bassadors, orators and men
who seek 10 influence public policies.
Weddings and love affairs are subject
to disturbing and unhappy influences.
Scandals are strongly presaged and d.
vorces may multiply.
4 great storm may prevail over the
northern part OF Europe and the North
Sea within a few hours OF this months
lunation.
The death Of a monarch or ruler OF a
country Is prophesied. The seers say that
Il will occur before the new year.

fleets and the invention Of safety de-
vices.
Persons born on this date may have
a troubled year, IL the natal hour was
after 10 o'clock p. m. They should not
make any changes and should not travel
for pleasure.
Children born on this day have happy
augury. They should possess good judG'

up. This can be easily done with very
little trouble. First lay the material in
yard folds, then haste all the selvages
together on one side only. Then haste

other side are left free. Next fold 1t

tub Is filled with cold water in sufficient
quantity to cover the goods to be i'm

the water for about half an hour, when
II should be wrung out lightly to avoid
creasing. Hang the basted end to the
line then pull and straighten with the
hands, slipping them up and outward be-
tween the free selvage. When nearly dry
release the basting on the two ends and
assist the drying by shaking and shap-

lengths. When quite dry. cut the basting
threads from the selvage end. when the
material should look like new. In all
probability no ironing will be necessary.

DISCUSSION OF SERVICES
BY RAILROADS FINISHED
Interstate Commerce Commission
Not to Reach Conclusion on the
Evidence Taken.

Informal discussion of terminal serv-
ices by carriers to shippers. who have
private sdings and other facilities in
connection with the shippers protest
against the proposed general ) per cent
freight rate increase was finished today
before Commissioner Harlan of the in
terstate commerce commission. No con-
clusion will be reached by the commits
sion on the evidence thus taken. Com
missioner Harlan described the discus
sion as a preliminary review of the facts
to enable the commission to formulate a
plan for actual Investigations. The ruling
of the commission so-called free
services by the carriers undoubtedly
would be based on the result of that in
quiry, he said
Large shipping interests OF official clas-
sification territory represented at the
hearings have made it evident that they
would oppose any effort to compel rail-
roads to charge them for services now
rendered free.
Louis D. Brandeis, counsel for the com
mission, has taken the position that this
service threw an undue burden on the
carriers, depicting their revenues and at
the same time affording an actual dis
elimination against small shippers. He
believed no general rate increase should
be granted until this matter was cleared
up.
