THE BASKET HAT.
American women were cer
tainly fooled this spring by a
clever milliner in Paris in their
adoption of what is known as j
the "peachbasket" hat. And to
day all Paris is laughing in its
sleeve at the American women
who were tricked.
Where Peris Failed
This clever Paris milliner was
one day studying a picture of
the hat worn by the Russian
Cossacks when the though occur
red to him to adapt itto women.
And the inverted "waste paper
basket" hat was the result. The
word of this milliner was well
nigh law, and a large manufac
ture of the hat was the result.
The Parisian fashion magazines
—this one among the others—
followed 3uit. And in the early
spring the Paris windows along
the Rue de la Paix blossomed
forth. But the milliner had for
once gone to far! The smart
French women looked these hats
over and refused to adopt them.
The millinercajoled and persuad
ed, but the French women stood
firm. We will not make our
selves look like frights," they
said, and they ordered flat hats
of the 1908 pattern. The ac
tresses were appealed to, but
they also refused, and not a
"waste-basket" hat was seen on
the French stage. The next
blow came when the first of the
smart American women came
to Paris. Every art know to
the French was resorted to, but
the American women sided with
the French women and refused
to buy the hats. The smart
women from Saint Petersburg
and South America, upon whom
Paris milliners and dressmakers
count most, came, and they
struck the flnaltilow to the ugly
hat by a refusal to buy. Mean
time, to make matters worse,
the Parisian women of ques
tionable repute adopted the hat,
and this meant its death-knell.
''Dump Them on America"
The tfiilliners found themselves
with hundreds of the hats on
their hands and the manufactur
ers were loaded up with thou
sands. A meeting was held and
it was decided that there was but
one thing to do to save a loss
that would mount up into the
millions of francs: to send all the
hats over to America on consign
ment, "and make,"to use the ex
pression of one of the leading
Parisian milliners,
American women (note the flat
tering definition 'silly') believe
that it was the latest Parisian
fantasy. Let us dump them on
America. But," she wisely ad
ded, "we must do it right away.
And done it was! And thousands
of the hats were sent to America
and sold as the latest Paris hat.
The trick was eminently success
ful: thousands of silly American
girls and women were fooled into
buying and wearing the hat that
was worn by only the street
women of Paris! These is one
saving grace in the situation:
for the self-respect of the quieter
and better class of American
women it can be honestly stated
that the ugly hat was refused by
them, as it was by the better
class of French women.
It is not a very pretty story:
not very complimentary to
thousand of our American girls
and women. But it raises a
naturally pertinent question:
How much longer will the aver
age American women be fooled
by the so-called decree of French
fashion-makers and their tricks?

Several Sioux Indiane, in war
bonnets and paint, were in a del
egation which called upon Prési
dent Taft the other day, urging
j 1 ' m 1)0 ^ P re8ent the unveil
j ' n £ a 8 tatueof General Custer,
at Monroe, Michigan. Thus the
times change. The killing of
General Custer and his whole
command by the Sioux in Mon
tana in 1876 is one of the most
tragic chapters in the story of
the great Northwest. The full
details of that massacre have
never been told, but it is known
that the intrepid cavalry leader
and his troopers met their deaths
in a way that upheld the best
traditions of the American
soldier. —Youth's Companion.
The fourth of july was celebra
ted with much spirit in and about
this city, but it was a shameful
day in one respect at least. The
noise was outrageous. Chinese
bombs bursting for two days and
two nights are a little to much.
The incessant noise was especially
outrageous around the hospitals
of the city, and must have been
torture to the sick and nervous
within the hospital walls. Then
there is always more or less sick
ness in private homes; there are
men who work all night and need
sleep in the day time, there are
men who work all day and need
sleep at night, and to have a whole
city distressed that some boys and
hoodlums may think they are hav
ing a good time, is not fair. We
hope that before another Fourth
of July steps will be taken to insure
its rational celebration. —Goodwin's
Weekly.
