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.
1t is and is likely to continue to be
the ideal hat for midsummer outing
wear, for sports and for travelling. 1t
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
it 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 fiower-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 a va

The unusual and distinguished style
of this costume has been achieved
by the employment of familiar mate
rails. White wolfe, very fine in quail
ity, filet lace, with an open mesh,
soutache braid, and pearl buttons are
all staple goods well known and well
loved
The pretty fashion of posing one
transparent fabric over another shows
to excellent advantage in the skirt.
The underskirt of wolfe is full and
round. Above the two-inch hem there
are seven narrow tucks an inch and
a half apart. Just above the knees a
band of braiding, in an ornamental
scroll pattern, is applied all around
the underskirt, finishing it's decora-
ton.
The overdress of filet lace does not
extend to the bottom of the under
skirt, but is shorter by about nine
inches. 1t is gathered in at the waist
I line with the wolfe, leaving a panel
of the underskirt uncovered at the
front, for the lace does not extend
across the entire front of the gown.
1t is caught up and fastened to the
underskirt just below the knees at
each side, forming slight drape.

Light More Beneficial Than Heat.

power than convection heat as gene
rated by hot water bag or poultice,
for instance.
E. G. Titus in an address before the
Illuminating Engineering society, said
that such heat penetrated two inches
Or more, while convection heat was ex-
cited principally on the surface
This is why electric light baths and
sun baths are SO stimulating to the or
gans of elimination, especially the skin
and kidneys, and so beneficial in so
many diseases.

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 favorite decorations, and not
to be improved upon. The wide.
brimmed shapes are sometimes
swathed with malines and finished
with huge bows Of this fabric. Coca.
sionally flowers or feathers adorn
them. But narrow-brimmed Panamas
are trimmed in the simplest manner
possible.
The fine South American Panama,
II well cared for, will stand many
seasons wear. These hats can be
cleaned and reblocked If one wishes
to change the shape But it is better
to swathe the hat in wide silk or chit
fon scarf than to reblock it, and to
wear it in its original shape. A hat
SO fine, SO shapely and sensible will
always look WELL
1t seems pity to wear out hat
whose making involves such pains
taking and wonderful work, by using
hat pin. In fine hat it is better
to sew hat fasteners in the band and
secure 1t to the head in this way.

The Cork Trees OF Spain.

The important industry in Spain is the
cultivation OF cork trees. This tree is an
oak which grows best in the poorest soil.
II cannot endure frost and must have sea
air and also some altitude. II is found
all along the coast of Spain, the northern
coast OF Africa and the northern shores OF
the Mediterranean.
There are two barks, the outer (which
is stripped for use. The cork is valuable
according as it is soft and velyety. When
the sapling has reached the age of 10
years il is stripped OF its outer bark for
two feet from the ground. The tree will
then be about five inches in diameter and
about six feet up TO the branches. This
stripping is worthless. The inner bark
appears blood red. and if il is split or in
iured the tree dies.
When eight or ten years more have
elapsed the outer bark has again grown,
and the tree is stripped four feet from the
roots. This stripping is very coarse and
is used to make floats for fish nets.
Every ten years thereafter the bark is
stripped, each time two feet higher up,
until the tree is 40 or 80 years old, when
il is in its prime, and may then be strip
ped every ten years from tha ground TO
the branches.
