Some people think money 10 greater
power than love. oh What a mistake
See how the great money kings are con-
trolled by the little boy Cupid! See how
the great soldiers and men of power are
twisted around his little fingers
A woman's most precious possession Is
the capacity for awakening pure and noble
love. More potent than wit or intellect is
the womanly capacity for happy wifehood
and motherhood.
A woman who Is weak or diseased in the
special organism of her sex Is deprived of
the power and prestige which naturally be-
long to her. Such troubles are not a ne
cessity. Perfect health and strength of the
feminine organism is insured by proper
care and the aids afforded by enlightened
medical science. DR.. Pierce's Favoritc Pre-
scription cures all weaknesses and diseases
of woman's special organism.
For nearly 80 years DR.. Pierce has been
chief consulting physician to the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo,
N. Y. No other physician has had more
extensive practice or greater success in the
treatment Of womcn's diseases. No other
such perfect and scientific remedy for these
ailments has ever been devised. It has re-
stored health, strength and womanly power
to tens of thousands of women.
Women who would understand their own
powers and possibilities should read Doctor
Pierce's thousand page illustrated book,
The Peoples Common Sense Medical

lished. A paper bound copy will be sent

Scrub stock Mcans Loss.

II there ever was time, says an ex-
change, when the farmer who is hard
pressed financially could not afford to
keep poor stock, 1t is at present. The
poorer the farmer is tho more neces-
sity there is for keeping only the best
stock, because 1t is the only kind in
which there is any profit. Only rich
men can afford to keep scrubs. 1t re.
quires a bank account to maintain a
farm on which scrub stock is kept, and
II the farmer does not have balance
70 his credit, he will have to borrow
from those who have.

MARKETING TURKEYS.
Birds OF Medium Size and Weight Are
the Best Sellers.

inc nest sellers.
We can offer a pointer OH marketing
turkeys that we discovered while buy
ing Christmas turkeys in the city mar
ket, and that is the superiority of
medium-sized turkeys over 20 to "a
Founders, as sellers. People, as rule,
do not want enough turkey at one time
to lay a banquet spread, and eonse-
quently they pick for something small,
or not exceeding medium in size.
The hen turkeys always sell first,
simply because they are more suited in
size to the wants OF the ordinary fam
ily. Then the smaller gobblers go. and
lastly the pride of the fock-the big
gest tom in the lot-and he usually coca
at discount of two or three cents u
pound less than the lesser weights.
A turkey that weighs from ten to tif-
teen pounds dressed is plenty large
enough. The people don't want a tur-
key as big as hog, but they do want a
fat turkey.
1t seems to us that there is good deal
OF room for improvement in breeding
turkeys for the market. That "a bird
shorter in legs and neck. and very full
in the breast, would be more desirable.
One that would be meaty and plump,
and capable OF taking on a great deal
of fat.
The heavy weight, tall, rawboned
toms that weigh rs to 40 pounds may be
suited to a barbecue feast. but they
are not the kind that the man with an
ordinary size market basket looks for
when he goes to the city market.
There would be more demand. and
better sale for turkeys all the year
through, if they were grown more with
view to compact body, meat and fat.
than for large size and coarse structure.

EVENING DRESSES.
How Women Can Make Over Some which
Thoy Have.

Thoy Have.
With the opera begun and the party
season beginning we must look to our
evening frocks. Some of those which we
wore last winter will serve again this
year. Others should be ripped up for
innings, given to small girls for party
frocks or made into sofa cushions.
Nothing is shabbier than dilap.
idated evening dress. Many women do
not realize how quickly the ribbons and
laces upon dancing frock become tum-
bled. Nor how readily an old gown
may be made to look fresh by new trim
mings.
This, however, is an important thing
to remember. New ribbons of the
original color of dress should not be
placed upon 1t after it has been worm
By comparison the dress will seem shah
by. Contrasts upon old fabrics always
are the proper accessories. For ex.
ample, white ribbon, fresh, against a
white silk dress old, makes the whole
garment to seem patchy. Purple or
green or yellow or blue ribbons next to
the white gown will produce an effect
entirely smart il the silk has been frus-
trated
Sometimes ii is well to sponge an
evening frocl with soap-barley water.
II the material is heavy and the folds
can be unripped and left wrapped until
dry around broomstick handles the plan
may be tried. When the silk is light in
weight and uncertain in color benzine
hath preparatory to refashioning over
a rather stiff muslin and cambria lining
should be considered.
Some gowns this winter are sleeveless,
but a woman must be sure that her
arms are perfect before she plans to
reveal them. And that her dress is
beautiful enough to bear severe criti-
cism. Any style in small pufrs or but
terfy designs will be in order. Really
large sleeves are distinctly out of fash
ion. Last evening noticed some upon
an evening gown at the theater, and
they seemed amusin4ly old.
This is fearful pace we are living at
in these times in everything and fash.
ions. But 1t is so simple thing to perk
up last seasons sleeves into this ones
no one need worry about that.
Amateur dressmakers will find that
hest effects in the greatest number Of
evening fabrics come from liberal use
of an inner stiffening-grass linen. mus
lin, even tarlatan. Hair cloth has little
in common with silks.
Among hints especially TO remember
about worn silks is this-that fabric
too shabby for use undraped may be
converted into lovely ball toilet sim
ply by covering loosely with tulle, chif-
fon or net in the same or contrasting
color.
Broadly speaking. ball gowns this
year are Of draped silks, dinner and re-
ception costumes are of brocades. Even
the debutantes are wearing brocades
There Is a wide demand for them. They
rage in all degrees of modesty, tiny
self-colored or contrasting flowers, up
to huge flaming bouquets upon every.
