FASHIONS IN SNAIL FuRs.

There has been an enormous call
for small furs, scarfs, boas, and ripple
shoulder collars, which are worn with
tailor gowns, and with handsome Wis
iting gowns which fastidious women
are 10th to cover with long wraps till
the weather makes it imperative. The
autumn styles ill this need better
than ever before, afiording just the
necessary warmth and comfort, and
all these small pieces can be worn
throughout the winter.
Our pet boa Of former seasons, with
its acknowledged head clasping a clus-
Ter OF tails under the chin, had devel-
oped into Il scarf OF marvellous beauty,
showing that ingenuity aud taste can
always evolve something novel AMI
charming. A ripping mass of tails
falls over that bust, reaching the
waist, aud affords much warmth and
protection over the chest. The tails
are surmounted by two heads, and the
scarf is either broad and straight in
tho back, or curved slightly, in collar
shade. Other styles show clusters of
tails In the back, and also pendent
legs and claws. A feature of boas and
scaris of fine quality is their softness,
there being no padding nor stiff inter
hning.-Demorest's Magazine.

What will become Of the farmers
sons who are driven OF the farm bv
improved machinery is no longer n
problem. They are assisting TO make
the thousands of implements and ma.
chinery which are now necessary ad-
luncts to farming. What has been
lost by the laborers in ono direction
they have gained in another; for n
demand has been created for imple-
ments, which In their turn have
brought more land under cultivation.
There are more luxuries in the farm
ers' homes than before, aud they have
more plants and fruits, and of better
quality. The choice varieties OF ap-
pies, pears, peaches, plums, grapes,
strawberries, etc, which are enjoyed
to-day, were unknown half a century
ago, and the present improved breeds
OF cattle, horses, sheep, swine and
poultry have also been additions. The
heavy labor of the farm has been. lift.
ed aud tho surplus labor diverted to
other industries, every Improvement

The collet, simple as it looks, must
have q certain air TO be success,
writes Isabel a. Mallon in the LADIES'
Home Journal. It does not want to
stand up high on the shoulders, but it
should go ont in a very broad fashion
so that the waist below it looks very
small by comparison. Then the frills
must be very full, end whatever is
used must be at once harmonious aud
chic. II there are ribbons they must
be very long. Rosettes are more like
cabbage roses than ever before, and
chiffon frills are in fullness like unto
the drops of water IN the ocean. Give
to your evening bonnet aud collet
that intangible air, which, for want of
something better, we call style, for
then, and then only, will it be sue
cess. And then, and then only, will
you look well in it and will il be an
absolute success on you. And it is
only when ones gowns and ones be-
longings are successes that the general
woman feels comfortable and really
enjoys herself.

sighted way have prophesied for some
'ime that the days of the hustle were
ABOUT to return. They have said that
organ-plaited backs pressaged the ad-
vent OF the hustle and that widely
naring skirts lined with stiffening
would inevitably lead 30 the readop-
ton OF that clumsy article of attire
which womee gave US so gladly a few
years ago.
= The lingerie department in the shops
would seem to bear out this prophecy.
Inc hustle has made its temperance
there, tentatively so far, but still with
the air OF having come to stay. 1t is
not the monstrous article which was
banished when clinging skirts became
fashionable. 1t is rather small and is
made of haircloth, sometimes black.
sometimes gray and sometimes white.
1t consists of three vertical puts which
look like the abbreviated lining TO an
organ plat skirt. and it is finished bv
frill of haircloth. Its main object
is to give the skirt start in the RIGHT
direction. A we'll lined skirt will Fare
at the bottom with the aid of a very
small hustle.
OF course this slight reappearance
Of the hustle may be followed by a
hustle revival on a large scale which
Will make camel like humps once mora
the style. Doctors will object vio-
lently to the introduction of tho bastle
on the ground of health, aud artists
will doclaim against its use on the
scoI o of beauty, but the medical and
aesthetic world may grow hoarse with
anathemas against it before it will be
discontinued if fashion once saws an
thoritatively that it must be worn.
Louis Seize and Marie Antoinette
styles both require more or less pad
ling about the hips. The paniers of
the Louis Seize coats and the stiff
skirts of the Marie Antoinette period
demand some bouffancy, and This is
obtained only by padding or by a
bustle.-New York World.

AarrcuLruRAL MACHINERY.

Agricultural implements and ma
chiEery on the farms have done more
to cheaper products than all other
causes combined so far as prices ara
concerned, and they have also cheap
ened the cost. When wheat was 81 a
bushel nearly half a century ago the
cost of production was also heavy.
The scythe was then used, and CLEAN
ers followed to bundle into sheaves.
The thresher was then just supplant-
ing the fail, and considerable work
was required to clean the grain from
the tanning machine. These processes
were slow. and necessarily required
many laborers. To-day the farmer
can ride when he blows, and the seed
and fertilizer are drilled in at one
operation. A boy can, with har-
vester, cut and bundle whole field of
grain In dGy, and the separator not
only threshes the wheat but cleans the
grain, bags il and removes the straw
at one operation. There are also DO
tato planters, potato .diggers, corn
planters, corn harvesters, bean har-
vesters, clover rakes aud tenders, re-
versible plows, spring tooth harrows,
and also cream separators, which re-
move the cream from the milk by cen
trifugal force, as we'll as innumerable
other machines and implements. 1t
may be claimed that the farmer can
sit in bis seat and pillow, plant, harrow,
cultivate and harvest.
Will this condition lead to over
production9 $50 far such has not been

SAFE AND snIr1E wrnL.plcarya.

a farmer who had experienced no
little trouble in getting well dug, be-
cause OF the softness OF the soil and
the danger of caving, has tried plan
that not onl y works admirably, bat is
absolutely safe, and can be carried on
by the veriost greenhorn in existence.
Any man who knows enoueh TO WELD
pick and shovel can, under intelli.
gent direction, make a success OF we'll
digging. A section OF sever zine
about five feet in diameter was set
upon the ground and over into this
the workmen climbed. A derrick with
pulleys and hosting appliances was
rugged over this pipe. The worimen
shoveled the earth into buckets, which
were drawn up and emptied on the
outside. When the hole was rs large
as the pipe, the earth was scraped out
TO allow the pipe to settle. This was
kept up until one section was some
distance below the surface of tho
ground; then smother section was
added. The weight of this, and tho
constant Earring assisted in carrying
the pipe down into the earth as tho
soil below was removed. A quieksand
that had given serious trouble TO we'll
diggers IN the neighborhood was
reached, and in the most surprisingly
short time the pipe settled through it
and struck terra firma. Then the
quicksand was bailed out end the
work went on. OF course, more or
less of the quicksand worked in from
the bottom, but by careful manage
ment no special annoyance was expert
enced. A ledge of rock was struck,
and this was drilled through in the
usual fashion, blasting being ont of
the question, as that would shatter
the pipe. The well when finished was
over forty feet deep, and the pipe was
anchored upon fat, sandstone base.
