One of Chicago's leading business
houses sent a request for a stenographer
to the Chicago Collegiate Bureau Of Oc-

by the firm is that the stenOgrapher
have red hair and blue eyes.
I'VE have had others asking that ste

TURKEYS MAY BE SCARCE.
But Cranberry Crop of New jersey
Is Biggest Ever.

Hammonton, n. U. Nov. 15.-Although
this Thanksgiving Day may be turkeyless
owing to the prevalence of the hOof and
mouth disease. the cranberry crop in New
Jersey is proving to be a whopper this
year. Growers in this vicinity declare
that 100000 bushels of the berries will
have been picked when the harvest is
completed. This would mean an increase
of 30 per cent over last years crop.
Whether the historic side dish Of the
Thanksgiving turkey will be cheaper this
year has not been decided by growers.
although Indications are the supply will
exceed the demand. The present quota
ton Of $3.50 a barrel is 81 less than last
years prior to this time. However. the
berries can be kept in cold storage for

New York Fashion Letter
By MARIE LA ROGUE,


The hat, not the hair, Is wOman's
crowning glory in this sophisticated age.
To be sure, as it happens the hair is
brushed and FURNISHED until it fairly
glows. But that is So that II may be ar
ranged snugly and Compactly under the
hat
For the hat taat demands a small,
tight coiffure is still in the majority.
The large hat is here-yes: but the small
hat is seemingly preferred by most New
York women.
Perhaps the fact that this is the sea-
son for furs has something to do with
the prevalence of the small hat. For
toques are vastly becoming. The big
hat OF fur is cumbersome.
At all events the small hat is still in
evidence. and as winter suns do not
trouble our eyes, even when they are
Unshaded by a wide hrim. and as winter
winds make a compact hat desirable, it
Is quite possible that the small hat will
remain in evidence until spring.
As is always the case after the first
alarm about the disappearance Of a Ger
tain phase of fashion has been sounded,
that phase appears in emphasized form
So, now. the newest and most striking
small hats are almost grotesquely small.
Some Of them are the tiny bonnets of
lSeO-the little oval shapes Of cloth and
velvet and fur. that were tilted down
over the eyes. and finished with two
streamers at the back. And very effec-
tive these are with a long-waisted Slim
chested, haring coat
An Odd Toque.
One small toque worn a day or two ago
by a fashionable woman looks exactly
like a diminutlve cheese box turned up
side down. 1t is made of tan milliner's
velvet. The part that goes around the
head-the side OF the cheese box-is stiff,
and It Is decorated with four fiat roses,
made of folded silk-two bright blue and
two cerise. The top of the hat-the bot
tom of the prototype box-is a soft circle
of velvet. lined with silk. and the two
fabrics are quilted together in the center
with a few silk stitches.
There are some small tricornes of white
beaver, trimmed with fur, that are in
very good style for cold-weather wear
Some of them are edged with ermine
without the flecks. with two tiny heads
meeting at the front, and some are edged
with brown fur-mink or sable.
A FOur-piece Set.'
One interestig set Of toque, collar and
mum, of white fox and velvet, includes
a bag made Of white velvet, ending in
a fox's head and tail. There are, by the
way, many three-piece fur SETS made up
of toque, mum and collar, that are in
every way admirable. They give a GER
tain continuity and uniformity to the
dress, whatever the rest of it may be.
They are made Of fur combined with

If d Master Carburetor on 1911 Cadillac can carry five passengers from here to Globe Sunday all day, using no more than a gallon of gasoline for each 20 miles of road, then Wild Bill Tremaine must purchase an outfit of clothes, shoes and hat to cost not less than fifty dollars, and present it to- gether with fifty dollars in cash money to Jack smith.
 This is the wager which Smith and Tremaine executed duly before the sport editor of The Arizona Republican.
 The terms of this bet are such that smith will have to drive his car to Globe, d distance of 110 miles and still use only 51a gallons of petrol. before he wins his money and clothes.
