The fact is, that in spite of their light and cool appearance, the palmetto hats were the hottest covering that a perspiring man ever interposed between his head and the burning rays of the sun. White starched shirts on a hot day don't com-pare to a palmetto hat for discomfort. The straw is so closely woven that not a particle of air gets to the hair, and as soon as people began to get ideas in their heads about common sense clothing for summer they began to look with dis-favor upon the palmetto hat. Besides, the hats are exceedingly expensive. The cost of a good one is $35 to begin with, and in order to have it in good condition yon must pay several dollars every sum-mer to have it reshaped and the straw whitened.

The time has come for the summer re-sort joke and summer resort gossip, so the following experience of a Washing-- I ton drnggist may be considered season-able. He aaid he had been going to the seashore every summer, and had fallen into the habit of taking with him a box of the best cigars that his case in the store afforded, being a moderate smoker, with a taste for a good weed. But up to a certain time he found it difficult to obtain any enjoyment ont of his costly tobacco, finding that as soon as he got near the air of the ocean the cigars be-gan to droop and wilt, as the smoker's phrase goes, and their draught became difficult, and the process of pulling them became an altogether tedious operation. One day he was smoking on9 of them with a good doal of difficulty on a chair on the beach when a gentleman sitting near accosted him, saying that he had noticed the trouble he was having with his cigars, and tbat they were probably of an imported brand. To this the drug-gist assented, and the other, pulling a couple of cigars from his pocket, handed them to tho rather astonished smoker with the remark that he thought they would go better. So the druggist lit one of them, and in a minute was enjoying one of the most delightful smokes he had had since ho left home. The cigar drew finely and did not wilt as the others had done. He asked his new friend why it was, and was told that it seemed imported ci-gars are so affected by the salt air as to lose their shape and their drawing qual-ities, while cheap cigars or "two-fers,- 7 as they are called, seem to be at their best in such an atmosphere, absorbing just enough of the salt air to take on a delicious flavor. Thenceforth the drug-gist saved money by smoking nothing but cheap cigars while he was at tho seashore, and every time he saw a man trying to smoke a good cigar with the same luck which he had encountered he played the "good Samaritan" and offered him a bad one, together with the advice to smoke none other within reach of the air from the sea. He also found that when he returned to town the good ci-gars would regain their shape and qual-ity and were as enjoyable as ever, while the others were as detestable as he had always found them be.

A look through a powerful field glass from one of the narrow windows in the top of the Washington monument in hot weather shows a new side of domestic life in the capital what might be term-ed the upper side as a writer has said in a book of which all the rest has been forgotten. Washington is a city of boarding houses. As you look from the top of the monument with your field glass you can see bedrooms on the house tops. That is, light, portable cots have been taken upon the flat roofs of houses, rugs spread over the sheets of tin lhat have become floors, and sometimes Eld-ing screens have been placed between the beds. Tho houses so topped off are probablv the big boarding houses where unmarried department clerks live, and they take to the roofs on hot nights for the sake of the maximum of air and minimum of temperature. And the plan is not bad one by long odds. Wash-ington Post.

Flower peddlers have adopted a new wrinkle for gaining entrance to the big office buildings in New York.

A German syndicate has recently been engaged in preparing to undertake tho clearing of tho Danulie waterway by blowing up the iron gats. By interna-- ; tional agreement it was settled at tho time of the treaty of Berlin that when tha time came Servia should givo up the quarries on the banks to whatever com-pany was charged with the work at a nominal valuation. Several hundreds of thousands of cubic meters of stone are needed in order safely to divert tho course of the stream during mining and blast-ing operations. Upon arriving at Belgrade, however, the German representative found that tbe government bad anticipated 1 by hastily putting np all the ritiarian quart riea to auction in numerous small lots, and knocking the.ni down to their radi-cal friend. Cinsequenly the company, instead of hrmng to deal with the crown, finds itself fac to face with a swarm of individual proprietors, each of whose claims will have to be settled separately. It is believed that tbe strong representations will be ma'le to quash the recent auctions, and the company will probably be babied by most European representatives. Cor. London StanuafJ. Jfo Gordon Sashes on the Exchange. The masculine sash appears this sum-mer to be a proper subject for discus-sion, as well as a popular adjunct to the toilet of gentlemen. The time has gone by when decorum demands that tho waistcoat shall be worn with the ther- - mometer marking the nineties. If one may judge from the samples displayed in the windows of the furnishers' shops, the cash which is worn at the seaside and in the tennis court is unlimited as to color. But sashes of a modest hue are creeping into use in the streets of Boston, especially since Speaker Eeed and Mr. Lodge popularized them upon the floor of congress. i But there is one place in Boston where the sash may not enter. One daring member of the Boston Stock Exchange ventured upon the floor with his waist enveloped in the silken adornment. He was at once and unceremoniously hns-tle-d out and warned never to appear again upon tha floor of the exchange in such a guise. The congress ot the Uni-ted States may suffer iu members to ar-ray themselves in such a manner, but the Boston Stock Exchange, never! Boston Advertiser. . ,,, . - a A I.lta llaadlrsa Itoa.
