WILD ANIMALS VISIT BANFF
Deer and Bears So Tame That They,
Are Everyday Sights in Cana
dan Village.

Although Banff is a hustIing village
during the summer. and is thronged
with tourists, wild deer from the
mountains are to be seen daily on the
streets, and al night stately elk leap
from the roads into the bushes to
escape approaching automobiles. If
a Banff cottager expects to eat his
own garden truck" he builds a deer
proof fence around his patch The
grounds of Brett hospital are open
from the street, and the other night
half dozen deer made raid upon
the flower garden. Banff is the cap
ital of Rocky Mountain park. and
shooting game within the park limits
is forbidden by law. The deer, being
unmolested, have become very tame
and even a bear now and then pays
q friendly visit to the village Not
long ago a bicylfst, speeding down
one of the side streets at night hit a
dark object, and turned somersault
or two before he hit the macadan.
Sitting up, he looked around and dis

costume that is beyond reproach. The
soft felt hat has a high crown and

There is considerable difference OF
opinion among people as to the pro-
priety of wearing mourning apparel. 1t
is a difference that cannot be settled
one way or the other so long as mourn
ing does not signify TO some people
what it does to others. The wearing
of mourning is not n matter of fash
ion, but an expression of sentiment,
and therefore each person is privileged
to decide for himself whether it is
fitting and appropriate or not.
Mourning hats must always be con-
servative in size and in style. avoiding
all extremes. They require the most
exact and painstaking workmanship
and are made of distinctive materials.
For first mourning crepe, in black or
white. is used, and since 1t is not used
for any other kind of apparel it has
become the insignia of mourning. 1t
appears In combination with other silk
fabrics In garments and In millinery
and is shown here in three of the four
hats pictured. One of these has q
medium wide dropping brim and soft,
draped crown of black crepe. with
brim facing of white crepe There is
small embroidered flower motif set on
the front of the crown as trimming.
A combination of crepe and dull fin
ished silk appears in a toque with fiex-
ible top-crown of crepe and the sides
of the shape covered with bias folds of
the silk fat. symmetrical bow of
ribbon makes a trimming In keeping
with the precise. even folds and per
fectly fitted brim facing.

Another combination of black and

The upderbrim and bandeau are COW
cred with the white crepe and the up
per brim with black crepe. The soft
crown is formed by draping one end
OF crepe veil over the shape and
kHotting it at the front. The veil is
then caught to the bandeau in the back
and falls from there as far as the
waist line
Either black or white beads, in a dull
finish. are used in mourning millinery.
In this hat white ones have been
chosen to edge the brim.
Crosgrain and other dull-finished
silks and ribbons are used for making
the first period of mourning or by per-
sons who do not wish to wear crepe.
The sailor shape illustrated has its
crown entirely covered with loops OF
grosgrain ribbon. The narrow brim is
covered with silk and serves TO SUD-
port wide border made of rows of

Hereditary HAY Fever.

DR.. w. Scheppegrell, president Of
the American Hay Fever Prevention
association, has recently made an an
alysis of AS cases treated in the hay
fever clinic Of the Charity hospital at
New Orleans and elsewhere in that
city in order to determine the influ-
ence of heredity on this disease. He
finds that in more than One-third Of
the cases the patients had a father,
mother, brother or sister who was q
victim Of the disease. Probably the
influence Of heredity is even greater
than indicated by these figures, as spe-
cific susceptibility may exist indefi.
nitely without developing hay fever, by
reason of insufficient exposure to the
pollens that cause the malady. The
question Of the development of a nat
ural immunity from continued expos
ure to the specific pollens is. says Doc
tor Scheppegrell. a difficult one to set
tie, on account Of the difficulty Of elm
mating the question of decreased ex-
posure.-Scientific American.

System, 1.-THE Office hours generally &C
cepted are to . 80, with an hour for
luncheon. That makes an eight and
cne-haf hour day. The argument
used in favor Of these hours is usual
ly: The work is all routine; the
employees will not work at their top
speed all day; routine work permits
long hours without affecting output;
and so to get the necessary output an
eight and one-half hour day is neces-
sary.'
I'VE used to work on that theory,
too. But few years ago we decided
that the routine worker appreciates
shorter hours, and will show his ap-
probation by getting out his work
faster if the situation is put up to
him right.
