For many generations the Panama
hat was woven in one shape, and it
took much urging and good manage
ment on the part of those who bought
and imported the genuine South Amer
lean Panama hat to persuade the ma
tive makers to produce other shapes.
But finally this was accomplished and
now one may buy a Panama In almost
any shape. Not all the hats known by
this name are South American prod
ucts, (there are Panamas and Pana-
mas), but whether made in Japan or
Connecticut, or brought from its ma
tive home, the Panama is a beautiful
product
It is and is likely to continue to be
the ideal hat for midsummer outing
wear, for sports and for travelling It
is soft enough to be comfortable, and
uncrushable and firm enough to need
no support 1t Is made with the inten-
ton OF fitting the head, as to the
crown, and for shading the eyes, as to
the brim. But In the past few seasons
1t has been possible to get Panamas
with very wide brims, and these have
added one more to the number of
wide-brimmed straws used for the
picturesque flower-laden millinery of
midsummer.
But the hat that is dearest to the
heart OF lovers of the Panama is that
which keeps as close as possible to
the original, mannish shape or va

ration that does not seem to change
its character. Three popular shapes
selected from this seasons showing of
Panamas are illustrated here. They
are to be recommended as practical
and becoming and correct in type.
These hats are usually very simply
trimmed with bands Of silk, ribbon or
linen. Flat rosettes or hanging scarf
ends are faTorite decorations, and not
to be improved upon. The wide
brimmed shapes are sometimes
swathed with malines and finished
with huge bows Of this fabric. Occa-
sionally flowers or feathers adorn
them But narrow-brimmed Panamas
are trimmed in the simplest manner
possible.
The fine South American Panama,
If well cared for, will stand many
seasons wear. These hats can be
cleaned and rebIocked IL one wishes
to change the shape. But it is better
to swathe the hat in wide silk or chif-
fon scarf than to reblock it, and to
wear it in its original shape. A hat
so fine, so shapely and sensible viii
always look well.
1t seems a pity to wear out a hat
whose making involves such pains
taking and wonderful work, by using
a hat pin. In a fine hat it is better
to sew hat fasteners in the band and
secure it to the head in this way.

and cracked corn, wheat screenings,
ETC., if such feeds are placed within
their reach.
The best way to feed grain to lambs
is to make a creep for them This is
a pen in the pasture with an opening
on each side through which the lambs
can creep but small enough to keep
the ewes out.
If such a pen is made Of Stats set
upright, the Stats may be far enough
apart to allow the lambs to creep
through anywhere at pleasure.
This pen or creep should be COW
cred so as to protect the grain from
rains and should have q trough in it
in which the grain should be kept all
the time
The lambs will grow and thrive
wonderfully and when weaving time
comes they may be taken away from
the ewes without any setback at all
Lambs mature quickly and make a
better size if they are taught to eat
grain as quickly as possible.
While it is advisable to see the
sheep often while they are on pas
ture, still it IS not necessary to stay
with them all the time and good re-
| suits may be obtained with plenty Of
good water, salt and feed and a week
IL visit, If the dogs do not trouble
them
If, however, sheep-kiIling dogs are
around, be on your guard with good
shotgun.

Valuation of property owned by pub
lie service corporations in Kansas, as
returned by the state tax commission,
sIumped nearly 100000 under the

Last year the pipe line companies

SMALL MOTOR FOR DENTISTS
Does Away With Rather cumbersons
Material Which Must at Present
Be Used.

Al electric motor, even In small
sizes. is quite heavy for the power it
yields. For this reason dentists have
been using q motor mounted on
bracket and connected by q flexible
shaft with the point of application Of
power. Recently, however, a NINA
ture electric motor has been devised
for the dentists use which is so small
and weighs so little that it may be
connected directly to the dental
chucks and used as & hand tool, thus
doing away with the cumbersome uni
versal shaft In place Of the shaft
light electric cord connects the motor
with g lamp socket. The motor is
one of the smallest ever made for
commercial use. Its weight Is but i've
and one-Quarter ounces, and it is one
and three-quarter inches long by one
and one-quarter inches in diameter
1t uses only II watts and operates
at a speed OF $4,000 revolutions per
minute.
