Wha a Kaw Straw Hat Wa Koral an 4 Traaare4 XoaaaaaloM. In tb early part of tbe last century there wer fewer factor! e in tbla country than now, and many thing wer mad by band which t'dsy tre tb work of machinery. Tbla was es pecially trn of tb braid for straw bats. Rye straw was commonly used, although wheat waa also la demand. But th ry straw bad longer steins snd wa mor eatUy bandied. In driving along country roada. In Maaaachuaetts particularly, 1st in tb aummer mi would o great bundle of tb atraw banging on th fence to dry. When th aun and wind bad don tbelr abar of tb work. It waa placed In casks wber aulpbur wa burning until It waa bleached to a pale yellow. Then It waa split into narrow wldtha aulublo for braiding. Tb daughter of farmers did not bav many pennies of tbelr own In tboa daya, and all wer eager to earn money by braiding atraw. Every little while men would pas through tb villages, calling from bout to bouae and buying tb straw braid. Tbey paid two cents a yard for It "Dlatrlct school" was in session only si i months of th year the rest of the tiro the children helped their mother with th housework. -Wbn that waa don tbey took up tbelr braids for amuaement and occupation. 80 much a day every girl eipected to do aa her dolly "stint" She would carry It down by the brook or np in the apple tree when the aummer daya were long; or during tbe atormy hour of winter she would go with It to tbo old attic, where tbe swing bung from th cobwebbed rafter. But all -tbe time In finger niunt work busily, lent the men tthould call for tbe braids and find them unfinished. The factories where the straw waa sewed were In tbe large towns. The Rlmphwt huts were of the braids alone. More elaborate ones bad a fancy cord, aiao of plaited straw, Hewod on tbe edge of the braid. Tbls cord waa made by the old ladle. Crunilmothers and groat-aunts whose eyca were too dim to sew would take the'.r bulla of atraw with them . on neighborhood calls. While they cht ted together, their bunds would be weaving the yellow atrunds In and out, fathloulng tbe dainty cord. Tbe price paid for tbe cord wa only half a cent a yard, but thla waa better than nothing to thoae dames of a bygone generation. A poor country girl would begin to think of her bat from the time of aeed-aowlng. All aummer ah would watch the billowy grain. Wben It was gathered and only tbe empty stalks were left, ah would tie them Into bun.' dies and bang them In some sheltered nook to dry. Bleaching, splitting and braiding these she did herself. Wben tbe braids were finished and aent to the factory, how Impatiently' ahe waited! Perhaps grandma con. trlbuted aome of the cord abe bad made laat winter, that tha new bat might be more beautiful. At laat tbe bat came home, and then what trylnga on there were before the old gilt framed mirror In the parlor! Uow lov ingly Ita owner bandied it aa ahe placed it tbla way or that on her curly bead. Oh, a new straw hat waa In deed a thing well worth having In those days of the long ago. St Nich olas. MAKING RUBBER IN COLORADO. Newly XMacovered Rubber lant la Supposedly Ueclee Weed. The announcement that rubber haa been found In a supposedly useless weed, growing on tbe arid plateaus and high mesa lands of the Colorado mountains, sets at rest all fears of a rubber Hhortage, says a writer In the World To-day. The rubber tree la a product peculiar to the tropic The newly discovered rubber plant of Col orado, however, grows at an altitude of from 5,000 to 12,000 feet, where the climate holds all the rigors of winter and all the withering force of a rain less summer. The discovery of the plant relieves the world's rubber mar ket from Its dependence on the tropics and makes It possible for rubber to be come a stable crop, even in countries where extreme cold prevails. To V. E. Marsh, of Denver, Is due the credit of the discovery. He went to Colorado two years ago, an Invalid, and to regain his health went out on to the range with the cowboys. He struck the range near Buena Vista. Col., where he found the cowboys chewing the root of a weed they call ed "rabbit bush." After being thor oughly masticated the root left a gum my substance. When Mr. Marsh first noticed it he considered it of more than usuaf interest, and at his first oppor tunity sent samples of the weed to Prof. T. D. A. Oockrell, botanist at Colorado College, for examination. The professor's testa showed th gummy substance to be gum elastic, or India rubber. When compared with other rubbers It was found to be equal to the beat medium grade of the trop ical products. Another Story. Miss ' Arabella Leapyear I don't mind your poverty, George.

SAMUEL R. SPRECHER. 1 r; r? CAPTAIN JAMES L. DEMPSEY. Catarrh of the Kidneys a Common Disease Kidney Trouble Often Falls to Be Regarded as Catarrh by Physicians. . Catarrb of tbe kidneys is very com-J mon indeed. It is a pity this fact is' not better known to tbe physicians as well aa the people. People have kidney disease. They! take some diuretic, hoping to get bet- j ter. They never once think of catarrh. I Kidney disease and catarrh are seldom associated in the minds of the people, and, alas, it is not very often associ ated in the minds of the physicians. Too few physicians recognize catarrh of th kidneys. They doctor for some thing else. They try this remedy and that remedy. The trouble may be ca- tairh all the time. A few bottles of Peruna would cure them. ... , Pe-ru-na Removes the Cause of the Kidney Trouble. Peruna strikes at the very center of the difficulty, by eradicating the ca tarrh from the kidneys. Catarrh is the cause of kidney difficulty. Re move the cause and you remove the effect.' With unerring accuracy Peru na goes right to the spot. The kidneys are soon doing their work with perfect regularity. Thousands of Testimonials. Thousands of testimonials from peo ple who have bad kidney disease which had gone beyond the control of the physician are received by Dr. Hart- man every year, giving Peruna .th whole praise for marvelous cure. .. . Pe-ru-na Cures Kidney Disease. Pernna cures kidney disease. Tb reason it cures kidney disease is be cause it cures catarrh. Catarrh of th kidneys is the cause of most kidney disease. Peruna cures catarrh wher ever it happens to be located. It rare ly (ails. If you do not derive prompt and sat isfactory results from the use of Peru na, write at once to Dr. Hartaian, giv ing a fall statement of yonr case, and he will be pleased to give you hi val uable advice gratis.
