A bright young man was selling us
a straw chapeau, and when we asked
the price. answered six dollars
Just like that. We mildly protested
that we had formerly bought hat OF
that quality for from $1.00 to $3.50,
and he countered with the argument,
"Yes-we used to get the Evening
Telegram for 10 cents a week, and
now we're paying IT," We pointed
out that the raise in the paper was
only 80 per cent, while on the hat II
was 800 or 400 per cent-and, ae

Election Not Assured

London, June 14.-The London eve
ming papers editorials on the Republi-
can nomination are devoted largely to
speculation on Senator Harding's
election and what effect that would
have on American foreign policy. Both
the Globe and Westminster Gazette
are of the opinion that Senator Hard
ing's election is by no means assured
if the Democrats are able to find a
strong candidate.
The Globe thinks Republican de-
feat is not impossible if such a man
as William G. McAdoo or John w.
Davis were nominated.
The Westminster Gazette declares
that Great Britain must preserve neu-
trality in presidential conflict, but
cannot disguise its interest. 1t is
doubtful, in the opinion of the Gazette
if the November election can settle
the question whether the United
States will pursue a purely American
policy or take hand in international
politics.

The Globe says: Senator Harding

which characterized America in the
days before. 1t is n perfectly

Coalition Liberals represent in this
country. He is the instrument, we
might almost say the tool, of the clev-

ALGY WAS TOO IMPATIENT
LordIy Youth Might Have Saved Him

Algy staggered into the hotel and
entered the telephone booth. He was
Immediately clad and in lordly
humOr.
"Halloa!" he drawled, putting the
receiver to his ear.
A minute passed He repeated the
summons. His lordly humor began to
descend in rank.
"HallOa!" he called again.
No response. He grasped the re-
ceiver with an iron grip.
"HallOa !"
Still no response. His lordly humor
was now gone and he shouted things
into the receiver which must have
made even that experienced instru-
ment tremble.
At last, when the perspiration
streamed from his bursting brow and
his hat was limp and both he and his
language were exhausted notice
caught his eye. 1t read:
"Give the number you require to the
clerk at the desk and wait until the
connection is made"
He skunk away so quietly that no

NELSON COULD BE NERVOUS"
Great English Sea Fighter More at
Home on the Deck Than on
the Land.

Lord Nelson, despite his great PROV
ess as an English admiral, had his lit
tie fOibles. He loved duck hunting,
but nobody could be persuaded to &C.
company him, because the hero Of the
Nile always carried his gun cooked as
If to board the enemy, and the mo-
ment bird rose he let fly without put
ting the gun to his shoulder. He
rarely hit anything. His bringing in
partridge became a remarkable event
In the family.
Another side Of the sea fighter is
shown in an episode related by his
friend, BeckfOrd. II offered to show
him." said Beckford, "what had been
done by planting in the course Of
years. Nelson mounted by my side in
a phaeton drawn by four horses, which
l drove. The horses were gentle, I'M
der perfect command, and had driven
for years. Singular to say, however,
we had not gone far before a peculiar
anxiety spread over the admiral's
countenance. Soon he said: This is
too much for me. You must set me
down. 1 treasured him; argued. All
would not do. He descended, and l
walked the horses back home, Nelson

SHORT JACKET FOR SPORTS
Garment Promises to Prove Most Pop
ular for Outdoor Wear; Wool
Jersey Favored.

Every season offers its best in sport
togs and especially coats. One season
it was the blazer jacket, Haunting Its
striped surface to an admiring world !;
then the advent of the black velvet
coat, and last year the sleeveless coat
reigned supreme as the queen Of the
sport coat.
But this season there is something
different and even more practical, and
If we are to judge by the enthusiasm
discriminating women are showing the
short jacket will prove to be the most
popular for outdoor wear.
Wool Jersey of heavy, close weave
Is the favored fabric in gay and dull
shades and cut into jaunty, attractive
models For tennis, golf, motoring or
tramping, there is fetching jacket OF
pool table green jersey that Is I'M
usually attractive. 1t falls considerably
over the hips and is cut not too full
The top is finished in u mannishly
tailored style, with nOtched collar and
turn back revers. There Is belt OF
two at the breast and two below the
belt. 1t is the pockets so well-made
that gives the air Of finished smart
ness to the garment, for they show an
inverted plat through the middle and
a clever turn-back flap at the top.
For rough and ready wear this jacket
is ideal, worn with a short skirt OF
green and tan plaid and topped by
tam of bright green velours. But for
more dressy occasions, 1t would go well
with a white satin skirt, white low ties
and fetching sport hat Of green and
white taffeta, nicely tailored.
Closely knitted jackets are making
their appearance, and in all the most
wanted colors. Some are deeply
flounced and frilled at the sleeves,
while others choose the tailored way
to smartneSs.

OveraIIs and Spats.

"Isn't he a nice-looking stoker?" re-
marked a girl to her friend in the
Strand on Saturday, pointing to port
ly and genial-faced man wearing a
blue combination suit Of overalls.
If she had looked more closely she
would have realized her mistake, for
what stoker or engineer ever wore
fawn spats and smart Homburg hat,
with his BOILER suit" as this CHEEKY
stroller was doing?
Saturday was the beginning in this
country of the overall crusade, started
In America as a protest against the
high price of clothes, and this good
humored vision in dungarees was one
of the pioneers. He was accompanied
by a shorter man wearing dark-blue
overall trousers and very small
lighter-blue overall coat, which re-
sembled an Elton boys Jacket. He also
wore spats.-Daily Mail, London.

WEAR LACE, NET AND RIBBON
characterization for Frocks Never
More Pronounced Than for the
Present Season.

Lace and net are most popular for
summer frocks this year, and on the
same wave that carried them into
popularity ribbon has been swept into
popular favor. Consequently, ribbons
have never been more beautifully col
ored or more interesting in design,
and, from the narrowest widths Of
wash ribbons to those wide enough
for a girdle, they are really notable.
One of the most attractive uses of
ribbon in connection with lace is as
an underskirt. One very pretty frock
of wide filet lace was made with
skirt straight in frOnt-only slightly
gathered to the belt-and flying loose
at the sides, the extra length being
managed by being caught up in a
loose drapery, held by knots of mar
row ribbon of two colors, silver on
one side and lavender on the other.
The underskirt of this dress was
made Of very wide ribbon in lavender

many satin dresses have been worn,
some quite plain and others either

EARLY FALL HATS
New Models Show Combinations
of Duvetyn and Beaver.
Hatter's Plush Used to Make Swauuer
Veil Observation-Disclosures and
Fruit Trimming.

Included in the early fall line of
millinery manufacturers are unusually
attractive models made of duvetyn
and beaver. For some Of the hats
duvetyn is used for the crown and
upper part of the brim and beaver
forms the facing. Other models have
the entire crown and brim of beaver,
with velvet used as facing on the I'M
der side of the brim. Some of the
hats in this line are described this
way in the current bulletin of the
Retail Millinery Association Of Amer
lea:
"a line of sailors made of hatter's
plush is especially featured. The hats
extremely smart-are made just
like a mans high hat with a
gossamer body, and duvetyn is used
as facing for some of the models.
'Hatter's plush is used also to make
a swagger veil hat. The high crown
gives it somewhat the appearance Of
a small high hat, and the brim is
straight and narrow. Two jet orna-
and veil bangles from the narrow
brim. For a rolling sailor Of green
duvetyn, black hatter's plush Is used
to face the brim. Trim hats designed
for riding or strictly tailored wear,
made entirely Of the hatter's plush,
also are shown.
"Orange duvetyn is combined with
white beaver to make a striking hat.
The high crown is somewhat bell
shaped and slopes slightly on one side.
The broad brim of the vivid-hued
duvetyn is festoOned with flowers of
beaver appliqued with Angora. A
narrow black and orange ribbon
bands the crown and ties in a bow
In back. Facing the under side Of
the brlm is the white beaver.

BEST LITTER FOR
POULTRY HOUSE

Litter for the poultry house floor is
not only necessary in plentiful ouanti-
ties but it should also be of satisfac-
tory quality. The two main points are
to have q material that will not break
up into chaff or powder too quickly.
and which will not be inclined to alb.
sorb moisture. Litter that breaks up
quickly makes the house overly dusty
and often causes disease of the nose
or throat or sore eyes by fine particles
being thrown into the hens eyes when
scratching. Litter that absorbs mois-
ture quickly is especially bad In the
winter months, when sunshine is
scarce and has little drying power.
Damp or filthy litter often makes q
good breeding place for disease germs.
Litter should always be material that
Is dfgestible If eaten by the hens, for
certain amount Is invariably con-
sumed. ,,.->.., .,...'. 70. .,... ....-
Wheat or rye straw is one of the best
materials for the litter, as it is tough
and lasts well, althou Oh at the same
time light enough in weight that the
hens can easily kick it around. These
straws also have the desirable quality
OF being slow to absorb moisture. Dat
straw does not make quite such good
