is, the most Of them are. saw one TO-
day exactly in the shape Of shawl ana
lined with lilac satin. The outside was
of prune came1's hair.
But, all, the Easter bonnets! l have
just been reveling in bonnets all this
week until dream of them, and few
divide with you, dear sister. The lower
right hand one is of black velvet as to
brim, with white satin shirred crown and
black velvet ribbons encirclingit. White
satin ribbons and an osprey and black
feathers trim it, all but the fall Of lace
all around, which is narrower at the
point in front.
The one directly above it is tiny vel
vet disk covered with speckled birds
wings; the bonnet in the lower left hand
corner is mite of pagoda in white vel
vet, black jet and an osprey plume start
ing from tiny pink tips. Black velvet
strings tie under the chin. The other hat
is a vandyked velvet, with small peaked
crown, and from this curls two black
tips. The points are turned upward.
I chose these as being the most strik-
ing examples Of different styles, but !
assure you that all these and many more
after their kind will see the light on
Easter day and not before, except when
the sweet and gentle owner can't live
any longer without just one more "try-
ing on" to be sure that it is becoming.

phones, express lines and pretty much
everything else the public can lay its
hands on. The Nicaragua canal is one
of his hobbies, but he believes that il
should be constructed, owned and oper.
ated by the government.
His chief claim to distinction, how
ever, is that he rose suddenly to be a
portentous political power, organized
his forces in way that completely Cir
cumvented the old politicians Of both
parties, and, in the language of his adj
mirers, 'sjust everlastingly smashed an
artistic gerrymander." The Sixth dis.
trict contains six counties squirming
along the coast for over 800 miles like a
disconnected angleworm. Every county
in it, according to all previous expert
ence, was safely Republican, and the
aggregate Republican majority was
about $1,000 Marion Cannon was put
forward by the Populists to buck the
center of the Republican rush line at
this point. The Democrats backed him.
He spoke Sc times and made house
to house canvass in some sections. The
Southern Pacific railroad fought him
theoretically, and startling charges are
made as to the amount of money spent
in the district. He was elected by $500
majority change of about II 900 votes
and the district divided its representa-
ton in the state legislature nearly equal
ly. He is now eager to get to work in
congress, and his first job there, he
thinks, will be to enforce foreclosure of
the mortgages on the Pacific railroads.
He was born in 1885 in what is now
West Virginia, and gained but a meager
education at the country schools, but has
always been great reader. Soon after
the first gold discoveries his family went
to California, Marion driving an OK team.
At that time southern California was
merely wilderness of sheep and cattle
ranges, inhabited almost exclusively by
the Spanish speaking natives. The Amer
lean emigrants headed naturally for the
mining regions. Mr.. Cannon settled in
Nevada county, where he soon became
"leading citizen" 1t was there that he
held his first and only public office-that
Of county recorder. Eventually he saw
the agricultural possibilities of the south
and transplanted his vine and fig tree to
Ventura county, where they have since
flourished on profitable ranch.
In 1890 he first became prominent in
politics and thereafter was leader in
the Farmers Alliance. That year he be-
came the head of the state alliance and
soon after was temporary president of
the national convention by which the
Peoples party was created. The next
year he organized suballiances so indus
triously that all existing political ar
engagements were completely broken up,
and in the campaign of 1899 the Oldest
calculator in California had no idea how
any district was going. In short, Mr..
Cannon's friends think he has shown
talents that mark him for leader of the
Populists in the next struggle.

But the point about the Persian sheep
is it's tail, and you can call the animal
the Persian Broad Tailed or Fat Tailed,
just as you choose, for this appendage
of the unhappy creature is both broad
and fat. What process of evolution
ever produced such monstrosity one
cannot say, but just under the tail bone
of this sheep grows an enormous deposit
Of fat of a peculiarly sweet and appetiz-
ing flavor. The real tail, about the size
of that of the ordinary sheep, wags
loosely above it. It constitutes at least
one-fourth the weight of the sheep when
the animal is thin, and when it is fat
this awful tail weighs as much as one
third of the whole dressed carcass.
Sometimes it reaches weight of fifty
pounds. When it is very heavy the own
er fastens a small, wheeled arrangement
Immediately behind the sheep and fixes
it by sort of harness to the animals
breast. Thus the Persian Broad Tail
hauls it's own tail behind it on cart.
Unhappy Persian Broad Tail.
On the whole, we doubt whether these
sheep will ever become staple mutton
breed for the United States, in spite of
the fact that the chunk of fat under the
tail tastes like butter when it is melted
with just the right care and attention to
cleanliness.

Besides these there are the daintiest OF
ginghams with silk threads, so that the
goods is quite novelty and is soft and
pliable and will wash like cotton. There
will be a large amount of glace silk worn
for house dresses, and they are seen both
changeable and plain and with brocaded
broken patterns and swivel weave flow
ers. Some of the brocades have change
able grounds.
But nothing is as pretty as the silk
muslins, and everything goes to show
that for summer dresses they will be the
first favorite. I saw one with white
silk underdress, and around the bottom
was f1ounce of silk muslin in iridescent
shades of purple, green. red and gold,
with hint of blue in some lights and a
frost of whitein others. A full gathered
waist and a plain, full skirt were made
over the slip. There were hemmed and
gathered caps to the pulled sleeves, and
in the neck there were laid narrow folds
of the same. The belt consisted of a
he1nmed sash of the silk muslin, three
yards long, which tied in the back. The

ruffle.
The neck is left square, but for out
doors there is little ruff1ed cape which
covers the neck and makes of it high
necked gown. With this style the hair
is dressed in Greek mode.
1 have been thus careful in this de-
scription, as I was informed that this
style, with some notifications or changes,
would form the basis of all summer
gowns-viz., the skirts will be full,
gathered at the waists, made to stand
out well at the bottom by means of
founces, and the waists will be as nearly
like this model as possible.
White gowns, bingham ones, cham
brays and grenadines, all will have full
waists, pulled sleeves and no end of ruff
fies. These ruf11es are hemmed plain or
with French rolled hem, and gathered
loosely. The wider ones will be cut on
the straight and the narrower ones on
the bias, and these latter are more suit
able for the French rolled hem.
The chambray and silk bingham next
to silk will be the incest summer dress,
and they will be made with as minute
care as if of the most expensive material.
The cham brays will have fine lace pat
terms laid on fiat or inserted and the nm
der part cut away, which gives a grace
and lightness to the gown that are very
pleasing.
Nearly all summer gowns for young
ladies will be low in the neck, and small
capes will be made of the dress material
to go with each gown, which will cover
the neck and furnish a,collar.

I was told by friend who lives IN
Paris, in recent letter, that high col
lars are going out, and that in short
time it will be daring lady who wears
a high collar to her dresses. One reason
for this is that the high collars injure
the texture of the skin on the neck and
make it rough and pimply, but it will
require some strength of mind to leave
them off al! at once. Probably it will
come to pass during the summer months.
My friend also wrote me that chignons,
or waterfalls, as they were called some
thirty years ago, are coming into fashion
again. Alas, for women who have head
aches! They are the most awkward,
ridiculous and unbecoming things posi-
BILE to imagine. They were contempora-
neous with hoops, which the French call
'.malakoffs, !" and if we are afflicted with
hoops / suppose we will bend the head

voking jute chignon. Oh, dear me!

HORNED DORSET RAM AND EwE.

HORNED DORSET RAM AND EVE.
market. Dorset ewes are bred for fall
and early winter lambs more easily than
others. When 8 months old the lambs
weigh often 100 pounds. The Horned
Dorset ram is said to exceed in prepoten-
cy that of any other breed, and with
good care the ewes may often be bred
twice year. The Dorset is pink faced,
and both ewes and rams have horns. For
this reason it is good breed for dog in
tested regions.
Our second illustration shows a state
fair prize ram of the favorite Shropshire

The Hog for Pork.

To meet modern requirements Of the
trade hogs for meat must be long, lean,
well fed and in prime condition. The
short. dumpy animal. a moving mass of
fat, is emphatically lard hog. Ameri-
can Swineherd says, while it is true
there will always be demand for lard
hogs, the point to be aimed at is to secure
a breed Of pigs that will meet either re-
quirement Of the markell streak Of fat
and lean when killed at or months
old and a good solid lard hog when thor
oughly matured."

NEW YORK, jan 26.-I doubt if any
such pretty goods for summer dresses
were ever made before. If there have
been, they have not come under my OBJ
servation. The girl who will not look
beautiful in them is to be sincerely pit
led. There is sort of gauze Of silk,
strong and with considerable body,
which is changeable, and some of the
patterns seem to have at least four col
ors, SO that they become opalescent in
different lights.
