STUNNING EASTER HAT
Trenton Girl Wore Wonderfully Trim
med Waste Basket.
Trenton, N. J, April 13.—Miss Ro
berta Stover, the daughter of one of
Trenton's largest manufacturers,
created a sensation- by appearing on
the fashionable thoroughfares of the
city wearing a hat of her own creation.
It was a waste-paper basket elabor-
ately trimmed with two feather dust
ers, an ear of corn, a miniature suit
case, a squash, a pin cushion resem-
bling a strawberry, a clay turkey and
a lemon.
The streets were crowded and Miss
Stover attracted a great deal of atten-
tion. She was escorted by her two
brothers. During the afternoon she
called on her Sunday school teacher
and her pastor, Rev. John D. Fox, who
was taken aback at sight of the novel
top dressing of the young lady, but
realized the humor of it and passed
her along with a laugh.

frauding the federal government of
import duties said to amount to over
$6000, John J. Purtell, of the firm of

portion to the government.

Roanoke, Va., April 13.—Forest fires

GOT RABIES FROM DEAD DOG
Pittsburg Man Dies In Agony at a
Pasteur Institute.
Pittsburg, April 13.—Thomas Cas
sidy died in great agony at the local
Pasteur Institute, hydrophobia being
the cause of his death. The strange
feature of the case is that Cassidy was
inoculated with the poison from a dog
which was dead, but whose body had
not yet become cold.
The animal was confined in a crate,
and when it became mad was shot to
death by Cassidy, who hastened to pull
the body out of the crate. One of his
dog and the skin was broken. Nothing
was thought of the matter at the time,
but hydrophobia quickly developed,
with fatal results.

Trailing Naturalists in Nowth Africa.
Nairobi, East Africa. —Anticipating the
arrival of Ex-President Roorevelt aud bie

is promulgated as follows: —

vent of Africa, there is only one group.
if, in breaking one’s way through the
thornbush, one finds an empty Ball Darham
pouch, it is a sure sign that a certain emi:

Moreover, it is a sign he bas entertaived

Colonel himself does not emoke.

empty ), this too ie to he consider-
ed a sign shat she Colonel bas passed that
way—bus is indicates thas, instead of Bull
Durbam, he bas decided to offer his guests
“Dog's Head.”
The finding of an empty can, marked
‘“Tortcise Shell Mixture,”’ is to he regard-
ed as av infallible sign that Secretary Ker-
mit Roosevelt has passed that way. The
presence of the secretary, as is well known.
indicates the olose proximity of Colonel
Roosevelt himself.
It is not abaolutely necessary, however,
to depend on mere keenness of eyesight. A
bunter with a delicate, well trained eense
of smell—eo well trained that he can reo-
ognize the delicate fragrance of Cameron

sign indicates. The instant that fairy fra-
granoe is wafted to his senses, the well in-
formed trailer will know that, somewhere
op the wind is Seeing Kermit—and
somewhere near Secretary Kermit, is hons-
er Reosevelt.
Secretary Kermit, in fact, is about the
best smoker in East Africa.

But Son Kermit bas been a smoker for the
last five years, and the Colonel's watchful
eye sees no effects from it.

How Your Shoes are Made.
I wonder how long it would take you to
make a pair of hoots ! I don’t think yon'd
better n it, especially if you need
them soon. Even a cobbler in the old days,
working with an assistant would spend a
day and a balf makiog a pair of boots. And
the cost would be about $4. Bot now, of
course, shoes are made by machinery, and
it is astonishing to hear how quickly they
are made. It takes just four minutes to
make a pair of boots | And the lahor cost
is 35 cents. Of course, no one makes the
whole boot nowadays. There are a bon.
dred different men making different parts
of it, and each one does the same thing over
and over again, and of course each man
learns to do bis particular work especially
well and quickly, and you should see the
buttons sewed on. A boy takes the part
of the shoe where the buttons are to go
and fits is into a machine, throws in a hand-
fal of buttons quite carelessly, tarns the
machine, and in no time out comes a piece
of leather with all the buttons exactly in
the right places. No wonder some factories
turn ons 10,000 pairs of shoes in a day !
