"Buying printing by the pound" is about like
buying office furniture by the foot-it isn't done by
the best frms-the who discriminating.
SELLING printing by the pound" is not done by
the best print shops 1t is still done by the shops
which not the best-not literally but amounting
to just that.
Estimates are very often sought by business
houses Of Washington printing jobs. and the bids
are open to all kinds of shops. Sometimes the diff
ference in the amount of the bid causes the buyer
to wonder just little if he is seeing rightly, and if
so, how much discount he should make on the
cheaper bid, to take of the difference in the
prices Ordinarily careful in buying for his firm,
taking care Of quality quite much price, there
are many instances where the work has gone to the
cheaper printer simply because no comparison has
been made of the work turned out by the two shops
Just why the difference in the two bids? Very
easily explained. 1t is bound up in the one word
"Equipment"- way Of saying liability to
handle the work properly from a good printing
standpoint" The cheaper bidder, he is very much
cheaper. may be economizng by using cheap labor
There is vast difference in the class of work turned
out by master printer and a near-apprentce. Or,
he may be operating without the necessary mechanic
cal equipment to do the best kind of work. It is i'm
possible to do justice to the best kind of printing
without the machinery made for that particular
work. He may be economizing in the grade of paper
used W1th'the present prices OF paper, it pays to
have your printing done at shop which cannot
afford to reputation for good work by the use
of poor stock-poorer than you would want used
All Of these faults singy in group, will show in
your printed matter-they may not be fragrant
enough to stand out clearly to you.
The printing shops of Washington which have
gone to the expense Of fitting up their plants prop
eery, which employ the best of printers only, who
have spent their time and money trying to improve
the quality of your printed matter deserve your
patronage. Give it to lem, and stop buying print
ing by the pound

Those whose allegiance holds to the
small hat have been repaid by its bril-
lance as a millinery achievement this
season. Though dividing honors with
the wide-brimmed styles, the small hat
has been allowed greater latitude in
the matter of trimming, and intricacy
has marked its draping. Even so, it's
trimming may be classed as simple
compared to that which has gone be-
fore. But designers have spent their
ingenuity in finding odd poses for the
seasons odd trimmings and in the
management of drapery and lines.
Beautiful velvets in colors that are
an inspiration to the designers have
been used for making many of the
small hats, and velvet turbans may be
said to predominant. But there are
others. A few handsome ones are en-
tirely of feathers. Novelty bands and
fabrics, plush. metallic laces and fur
are all conspicuous in the composition
of the small hat
Two turbans in which velvet is used
are shown here and will serve to illus
trate what has been said of the small
hat for this season. In the first one

Professor Ridgeway. in England, ad
vocated a new view, according to
which the Mohammedans got the idea
of the crescent, not from the new
moon, but from the ancient and long
continued use in Asia Minor of anu
let's made by fitting two boars tusks
together at the base. The figure thus
produced certainly bears a closer re
semblance to a typical crescent, as il
is represented on the Turkish flag
than does a new moon. The wide dis
tribution of these amulets, however
suggests that they may have had a
common origin in some symbol per
tanning to the moon. They are found
as far away as New Guinea, while in
Africa they are in common use, made
however of lions claws instead OF
boars tusks.

With little concession to the last

Judging a Man Properly.

When you esteem a man why should
you survey him all wrapped and en-
veloped? He then but showeth US
those parts which are no whit his
own, and hideth those from us by
which alone his worth is to be judged.
1t is the goodness of the sword you
seek after and not the worth OF the
scabbard; for which peradventure
you would not give farthing IL it
want it's lining. A man should be
judged by himself and not by his
compliments. What mind hath he?
Is it fair. capable and unpolluted. and
happily provided with all her neces-
sary parts? Is she rich of her own
or of others goods? Hath fortune
nothing of hers to survey therein?-

plaits at each side, and trimmed with
row of bone buttons set on the mid
die plat. The coat is a box model
with a single small slip pocket at one
side. 1t is finished with machine stitch
ing and small bone buttons are used
for decorating it at the sides and on
the sleeves. A double row of larger
ones take care of the fastening of the
double-breasted front. The skirt is

and is both more sensible and more
up to date when cut to reach a very

cred in at the right cabochon made
of the velvet finishes it. A similar
cabochon catches the velvet at the
back. These are the handwork of the
milliner.
The crown is supported by crino-
line foundation and the nat finished
off with two fancy feathers made of os-
trich flues.
The second hat is of hatters' plush,
with high straight crown and narrow
rolling brim. Bows of wide velvet rib
bon are daringly mounted at the front
and back of the top crown.
Just how eccentric the shape of a
turban may be, if its designer under
stands the management of lines, is
shown in the third picture. A round
crown is surrounded on three sides by
high curving brim, ali covered
smoothly with black velvet. A shape
so spirited and so simple demands
trimming of the same sort and finds II

springs skyward from the crown.
