canker Worm killing Apn,,s.

The department of state at Lansing
is in receipt of numerous adyices to
the effect that the canker worm is
doing great damage to the apple crop
throughout the state. The worm Is
inch and half long, and about the
thickness of a needle. Millions of
them attack an orchard and in a very
short time the foliage looks as though
fire had run through it. A successful
remedy for this pest is Paris green,
sprayed on the trees.

instruments of torture In July. All
shoes for summer wear should be at
least half size larger thar those
worn in the winter. Low shoes which
leave the ankles free and the circula-
ton unimpeded are best for all use
except walking. In walking, boot
which does not admit sand and which
supports the ankle is a positive neces-
sity. Laced boots should be worn for
walking rather than buttoned ones,
for the laced ones admit of being
loosened or frightened to meet the de-
mands of the occasion. Fairly stout
soles are desirable. but the lightest
possible leather. brown in color rather
than black, as the lighter shade
absorbs less heat
The young woman with an ambition
toward a waist of twenty inches will
find that her feet give her serious In
convenience. The undue compression at
the waist produces pain and swelling
in the wrists and ankles until they are
positively shapelesa OF course the
only remedy for this malady Is to stop
the tight lacing.
When one is very weary and foot
sore after a summer day, soak the feet
in tepid water, in which a little am
monia has been dropped. As the
water becomes cool. add hot water to
keep the temperature even Dry the
feet and rub them gently and thor
oughly with q mixture consisting Of
an ounce of linseed oil, an ounce of
ill., x-oxor oo1 m half dra chr, ~ sxtr.

the feet have been rubbed with this
mixture they should be wrapped in
soft linen and rested awhile. Even
the most tired and sore feet will be
refreshed by this treatment and their
possessor will feel like another woman.
New Way of Arranging Lace.
Lace Is more worn every day. The
new way of arranging 1t on the Marie
Antoinette waistcoats is very grace
full The waistcoat is composed of
pale satin or figured shot silk II made
full; but II quite plain, brocade or
MORE antique can be used. It is either
worn with belt or made just beyond
the waist line, and always fastens at
the back. Collar and belt are of col
ored velvet, fastened with the newt
able paste buckles. A deep flounce Of
the new fine guipure lace falls from
the collar band, quite short in front
and gradually deepening into two
points, which descend on either side
beyond the gilet on to the dress The
short open jackets or Figaros are
worn with these.
The Popular Chafing Dish.
The chatting dish has grown to be
an essential article in the dining room
outfit They may be purchased from

great comfort, especially to people
living in q fat or boarding house
Some one has said that Chicago is run
ming to fats, and indeed 1t looks like
it. 1t Is so easy to cook with chatting
dish. Oysters can be stewed, eggs
boiled, fried or scrambled, custards
cooked and all sorts of gruels made in

NOT give half the trouble any other

Poisoned His wife.

The sensational investigation of the
death of Mrs. w. II. Thacker, of Ben
zonia, whose body was exhumed after
burial because OF the suspicious Incl
dents previous to her death, makes
strong case against the husband.
Thacker was enamored of a former
servant girl and she had at one time
been the cause Of very strained rela-
tions between Thacker and his family.
During Mrs. Hackers last hours she
developed the strongest symptoms of
arsenical poison and the only thing
she had eaten was bowl Of graham
mush prepared by her husband. These
incidents taken together caused the
citizens to talk and as a result the body
was exhumed and an analysis by Prof.
Gomberg, Of Ann Arbor, revealed
arsenic in the stomach, liver and brain.
The coroner's jury after hearing the
testimony rendered verdict that:
"The said Anna Thacker came to her
death by arsenical poison administered
by her husband, w. II. Thacker, at her
home in said township of Benzonia.
