Strange Customer Shows Rare Taste in Selection of a Bonnet Which Has, Thus Far, Not Been Called Fer, That spirits do return from the grave and appear to mortals is a proposition that for ages has had its believers and disbelievers, but in the little town of Dublin, Ind., there is now only one opinion, and that is that spirits do walk the earth at times in mortal form. The reason for this pronounced belief at Dublin is an occurrence which has recently taken place there and which is so well vouched for that there is not a skeptic in the town. Dublin, the Chicago Ocean, is occupied by a well-to-do and intelligent class of people, shrewd, hard-headed specimens of the Hoosier type, a elass that is not its emotions, and is in- tensely practical. Among the resi- dents is a Mrs. Sallie Smith, who has lived there many years and who con- ducts a millinery store. One day last May a nice-looking old lady came into Mrs. Smith’s store. She appeared to be about 70 years old, and was tastefully dressed in black. She introduced herself to Mrs. Smith as Mrs. M——, and said that she had oniy recently come to Dub- lin and wanted to order a_ bonnet. The selection of this and the deter- mination of its trimmings proved to be a long operation, for old ladies are quite as fastidious as the young ones when it comes to the selection of a bonnet. says Inter led away by During the work of choosing the bonnet Mrs. Smith and her customer got quite well acquainted. In the their conversation Mrs. Smith learned that her customer was of Mrs. Rhoda Scotton, of Brownsville, Ind., who is well known course of tne sister INTRODUCED HE SELF AS MRS. M. to her, and that Mrs. M—— was well acquainted with many of Mrs. Smith’s people. When the customer left she she felt as if she had always known Mrs. Smith because she knew her family so well and had heard her Mrs. Smith so often. said sister, Scotton, speak of Mrs. The last seen of Mrs. M she was standing underneath a in front of Mrs. Smith’s shade tree house. A few called at weeks later another lady Mrs. Smith's store to order gave her name as Mrs. M——-, and said that she had Dublin. There was a decided resemblance be- the former of that name and the last, and yet the last had something about her that puz- zied Mrs. Smith and made her doubt- ful of the identity. Finally Mrs. Smith became that it was the same woman, and remarked that the bonnet ordered some weeks pre- ceeding was ready for her. The customer greatly a bonnet. She, too only recently moved to tween customer satisfied was sur- You must be mistaken,” she re- marked to Mrs. Smith. “I am a stranger in the town and have not only not ordered any bonnet of you, but have never been in your place he- fo a Mrs Smith looked at the woman and was puzzled. She looked like her former customer, and yet there was a something about her that did not the Mrs. Smith fin ‘ame convinced that she had mé a mistake, and this led her to tell her customer all about her previ- Mrs. M—— appeared greatly interested in the narrative and asked Mrs. Smith to. describe her former customer. When the lat- ter had done so Mrs. M—— said: “You have described my dead sis- appear same. v ous visitor. ter. She was older than I, and we married twin brothers.” Mrs. M then told Mrs. Smith that her sister had died at Indian- apolis in September, 1900, and was buried in the cemetery in the west part of Dublin. Mrs. M—— is 68 years old, while her sister, had she lived, would have been She is not a spiritualist, but is satisfied that it was her sister that called on Mrs. Smith and ordered a hat. The bonnet that ordered, a small black Tuscan straw, prettily trimmed with black chiffon, is still in Mrs, Smith’s possession, and she does not expect it to be called for. “And I’m not going to sell it, eith- er,” she says. “It’s the first bonnet I ever had ordered by a spirit, or that I ever heard of one ordering, and I’m going to keep it just as a specimen of the taste of spirits in was <icdsd cial ciate vibrate thats edo achat boastaclan edeainsecedtnsieaeol tb eceneidhchonsacsipcieaaecendamealaessrcieattess naa sessing enaeans a scp sai atiesaidaibisecetepsapisciiiinaiedbiunineet ATTENTHN LADIES -Hair Reorer.— All wno are dersirous of having a beautifvi suit of hair, or if your hair is falling owt, you should get a bottle of Hairoline, better known az the Renowned Hair Restorer Oriental Complexion Cre m ao cures al! shin diseases and makes the skin like velvet.
