In the second example, light brown
suiting Is combined with brown and
white striped stuff. The skirt Is Of the

AS to the fancy waist, the last end Of

the willy fashion creators are well

That is, they plan waists Of the same

An Old.Time Horse Trade.

A papyrus recently dug up in Egypt,
supposed to be between 5000 and 1000
years old. gives an account Of horse
trade in which the Egyptian who wrote
the record tells how he was swindled
by a Hebrew named Daniel. This
could not have been the prophet Of that
name in our Bible, who was resident
Of Babylon, and lived several cen tur-
les later. But the ancient record shows
that as great uncertainty prevailed In
horse trading thousands Of years ago
as there Is at the present day.

hold the mast in position, and Of such
length that when In the position Illus
trated the two ropes and & are tight,
while the rope b Is loose. The fork Is
pulled down and inserted In the load
of, hay and the horse attached Mt h,
the load Is lifted, and when 1t reaches
the top a, a line of draft will pull the
pole towards an upright position, al,
the rope b becoming tight and the rope
d loose. In this manner 1t Is possible
to swing the forkful Of hay up over the
stack, and IL the ropes are properly ar
ranged, to drop 1t anywhere along the
center of the stack. AS soon as the
forkful of hay falls Off, the mast Is
pulled back by the man who loads the
hay fork. or course, these guy ropes
must be arranged so as to allow the
mast to move in any desired position.
This can be easily accomplished by any
one who has average ingenuity. SAspul-
ley Is needed at masthead for fork rope
to ruin through. Also set short post
in the ground about two feet from the
mast, parallel with the stack; put a
pulley on this, run the fork rope through
1t, ana hitch the horse to the end. With
this simple device, twenty or thirty
large Sloads of hay may be put In a

There is not nearly SO much grass

Early Fattening OF Pork.


There Is great advantage In begin.
ming to fatten young pigs while the
weather Is still warm and clover or
grass is abundant. 1t takes very little
grain to start young pigs to fattening
when they have run at pasture. That
grain should, II possible, be something
other than corn, for part Of the ad-
vantage Of early fattening Is that the
fattening may begin when there is
little danger Of overlooking with corn.
Yet the farmer who Is fortunate enough
to have few thousand bushels Of old
corn In his crib can feed 1t with milk
and wheat bran, so as to make 1t pro-
duce twice as much pork as the same
value of new corn will make two or
three months later in the season.

HENRY oApor hoDaR


Denies that Ills Vlsltto iTadrId Had Auy
Political SgnihoNnos.
PARIS, Nov. S.-UnItod States Senator
Henry Cabot Lodge Of Massachusetts,
has returned to thI, city from Madrid.
Owing to the prominently expressed
views OF tho Massachusetts senator to
the effect shat tho American Congress
ahoud take q definite stand In behalf OF
tho Cuban insurgents, it was rumored
that his visit 10 thOSpaniAh capital had
broad political significance. In fact,
II was stated that no WA pursuing tho
inquiry as to whether proposition to
purchase tho islpnd OF Cuba by the
United States would DO entertained by
the Spanish government II that matter
was brought forward. This was oil the
further emphasized by tho report cur.
rent that at tho approaching session OF
tile United StateA CongroSs resolutions
will be submitted 10 aid tho Cubans In
thoir struggle by recognizing them as
bslligarenls, In Wow OF tho resolutions
adopted at public meetings hold in vari.
Gus states Of the union.
A Representative OF tho Associated
prOss This morning called upon Senator
Lodge at his hotel and questioned him
concerning tho reports in circulation
regarding tho purpose Of his visit TO
Madrid. He said that while ho was at
tho Spanish capital no was fortunate In
meeting many Of the men prominent
IN uublic life, and among Others Senior
Uanoyas del Castillo, tho Spanish pre-.
mier, but that In none OF these inter.
views did he btOaCh tho subject of tho
purchase Of tho island Of Cuba. The
senator added that he visited Madrid
simply as n tourist, and he desired to
emphatically deny that ho had gone
there for any political purpose, or that
no had pressed any views regarding
Cuba.
AZ the same time, it is understood
that the senator, while at Madrid
studied the Cuban question from the
Spanish standpoint md in so doing
gathered much Information which may
be OF use to him when that matter
comes no for discussion before the
United States senate.
