ONE OF THE FASHIONABLE HATS FOR AUTUMN One of the new shaggy felts so serviceable for knock-about wear is the subject of the sketch above. These felts appear in the soft shapes with rolling brim which are pulled down over the face in becoming and stylish lines, a fashion which has suffered no diminution of its popularity since last winter. With a few exceptions these hats show the new facing band of silk. The model shown is a beige felt with turned up brim faced in self tone silk, a length of this same silk swathing the crown; while to the right of the crown is placed a small but jaunty little black wing. HOP MARKET ACTIVE; i TAKING ALL GRADES Dealers reported a strong general interest in the hop market at the op ening Monday, buyers and sellers alike being disposed to do business, and as a consequence it is believed that the trade this week will fully equal that of last week, and possibly exceed it in volume. The interesting feature of the mar ket at this time is the demand for the medium and lower grades. Up to about a week ago the buyers could hardly be induced to consider the in ferior offerings at any price but since then, with holdings of the best in the state reduced to very small propor tions, their attitude has lhangfd. Nfiw they are taking hops of all sorts, at prices of course in line with the qual ity of the product. For the be"sT hops available in the Valley buyers generally are paying 17 to 19 cents, and quality stock as usual is the most rapidly sold. The next best grades are said to be going at 12 to 16 cents, and for poor stock dealers are reported to be. paying around 10 cents. The holders of the cheap stuff are said to be letting go in a fairly free way at the prices offered, while growers who have "quality stock still unsold are holding more firmly and as a rule getting full prices for their goods. The chances are fnat a large portion of the Valley crop will be disposed of before the end of the month. Orders from the East are now coming much more freely than was the case earlier in the season, indicating a general de sire on the part of the brewery trade to cover wants for the remainder of the season as soon as possible because of the growing scarcity of the good grade stock. Shipments for the Eastern markets are being made up and dispatched as rapidly as conditions will permit in order to affect a saving in transporta tion charges, which are going to be advanced November 20. In many cases it is said, consignments, yet unsold, are being forwarded to save the in crease in freight charges, the shippers planning to sell the goods while they are on their way East. The Scented Court. "The scented court" was the name by which the court of Louis XV. was known throughout Europe on account of the rage for perfume which then prevailed in France. The expenditure of Mine, de Pompadour for this one branch of her toilet amounted to $100. 000 annually. It became the fashion for ttle host or hostess of a great en tertainment to signalize to their gifcsts what particular perfume was to be employed for scenting their rooms on the night for which the invitations were issued, and they were expected tc use no other, so that the delicate effect of a unity of odors might be produced At court a different perfume was pre sented for each day of the week Hospitals Jn Smyrna.

The vigor and endurance that birds display upon the wing are astonishing. Nearly all the migratory species of Europe must cross the Mediterranean without resting. The little bluebird pays an annual visit to the Bermudas. 600 miles from the continent, and Wil son estimated its very moderate flight at more than a mile a minute. Re markable stories are told of the long flights of tame falcons, one going 1,300 miles in a single day. Jawel mentions carrier pigeons that flew from Rouen to Ghent, 150 miles, in an hour and a half, and a certain warbler must wing its way from Egypt to the Baltic, 1.200 miles. In one night. A straigm I ip. He What do you consider the best way to propose? She Promptly. Bos ton Transcript. Origin of "the Levant." Nowadays "the Levant" means solely the eastern Mediterranean region. But it really signifies the east in a general senses the region of the rising sun, in fact being derived from the French "lever," to rise. By "the high Levant" Bacon meant, the far east. In the eighteenth century Chambers' Encyclo pedia explained that "Levant" applied to any country to the eastward of one, and in this sense Evelyn wrote of "more Levantine parts than Italy." "Levant," indeed, was Interchangeable" with "orient." just as "ponent" was with "Occident." So we find Milton writing of "Levant" and "ponent" minds. Loudon Chronicle. Rugs That Curl.
