FEMININE FANCIEs.

The various passementeries for trim
mings are so charming and attractive that
they hardly know themselves in their new
gulses. There Is an evolution In wearing
apparel, as in everything else, and from
the overlapping, scaIe-like effect Of the
sequins and paiIlettes have come the
same effect in made goods In the passe-
menteries there are little circles Of can
Vas-like material overlapping in the IA
miliar fashion, and more stylish in the
fine pattern and coarse effect Of the ma
terial than anything in paillettes ever
was. Raised flowers are TO be seen I'm
many things, and they are present in
these trimmings, and some Of them with
funny little dangling tassels to them like
small punches Of fruit belonging to the
flowers.
A charming material in chiffon which Is
used to make soft little Jackets for
gowns, and which is altogether charming
In either black or delicate colors, has real
fowers-that is to say. the real flowers
of the milliner-applIqued upon 1t, the
foundation Of the flower appliqued to the
chiffon, while the remainder stands up
from it. and has the effect of natural
flowers strewn over the material With
black flowers on a white ground 1t IS
stylish and with pink or delicate colors
1t Is beautiful. The innumerable cornbi-
nations that can be made with a matc-
rial like this can be varied indefinitely.
1t comes in narrow widths. and a very
little can be used to advantage.
Flowers appllqued upon evening gowns
in combination with painting are charm
ing. A border Of big pink roses will out
line the skirt or overdress Of a gown,
and in some places the flowers may be ap-
pliqued on entire, and in another the half
Of the roses will be an artificial flower
and the other half painted on the gown
so cleverly that it takes a second glancs
to learn the deception. Buds and leaves
are painted on with these flowers, and the
whole Is delightfully."- effective.
The use of cloth on silk is shown in
dark figure blue foulard gown. which has
a fancy yoke, finished at the lower edge
with tan cloth in the effect OF a falling
collar, while the opening OF the gown be-

across of the tan cloth.

The New 'Box Coat"

She's straight from head to feet
There is no wrinkle any place,
But prim and plain is she.
Her arms flap down so Imply. too
And, say. it puzzles me,
Now, Is she plump, or is she leanP
Hath she a WItching form?
Does she wear such a coat as that
For looks-or to keep her warm?
She's comedy. as to smiling face,
But, leave 1t to a vote,
And every man would vote against
That our-sack-looking coat
They do not look like other coats,
Which used to be thought nice.
Yet one resemblance you will find.
And that is in the price.
These coats make you just like cigars

FROM OTHER LANDS.

At a. recent customs clearance OF sailed
horsefesh imported from the United
States the officials at Gothenburg'
Sweden, refused to approve the Yeterin-
ary's name stamp on the certincate or
the stamp Of the American department
of agriculture, but demanded that, In al
dftion. the casks should be sealed at both
ends. The board of trade, the medical
councillors and the board of customs
were directed TO express a joint opinion
In the matter. These officers say that II
IT is desired to ascertain II imported salted
meat is At for human food the meat
should be accompanied by certificate
from a veterinary surgeon stating that
the animals were examined by him and
found healthy They also recommend
that the outside covering OF such meat
be sealed and stamped in such a manner
that 1t cannot be opened nor the meat
tempered with without breaking the seals.
Experiences at Gothenburg have indicat-
ed the necessity of efficient control over
meat imported from America.

itself something like this:
Once maddened with hunger for land
and blood. there Is no telling where the
world powers will be satiated. From the
present outlook these powers will be
ranged as follows
On the one side, Russia and France.
On the other side, England and Japan,
with. perhaps Germany or the United
Statess or both.
The crisis has been precipItated by the
South African war Russia, with Eng
land occupied in Africa, has seized the
opportunity to carry out long-cherlsheI
schemes which otherwise might have
been years in eliminating. She has ac-
quired control Of Persia, which gives her
a base from which to menace India, and
also an outlet on the Persian gulf
and Indian ocean. The Turkish sultan
has been forced to give the car railroad
concessions in Asia Minor which are be-
lieyed to amount to a practical monopoly
Of control In Northern Asia Minor; and,
last and most important of all. Russia
has acquired practical control Of the Chi
nese government, even, perhaps, as has
been more than limited. to the point of
making a hard and fast alliance between
st. Petersburg and Pekin.
1t is said here by astute diplomats that
the situation has alarmed England, for
she is chiefly threatened by the Russian
moves. Plans for a joint naval demon
stration have been the result. This dem
onstration, it appears, is actually In
progress, for great fleets of English, jap
anese, German and American warships
are on the Chinese coast. Russian and
French fleets, are concentrated there too,
ready, like the others, to act at once.
The United States, under the policy be-
ing experimental with by President Nc
Kinley and Secretary Hay, has a three
fold interest in China.
First-The Philippine possessions
give her an Interest" in that part of
| the world. wtichg according to the ac-
eepted old world diplomacy, she must
watch and protect.
Second-The recent negotiations Of Sec

the green plant, or from drinking

ing tramped upon. It resembles,
in general appearance, wild par
snip, but grows in wet land, and
not in high dry lands, as does tn

The North Dakota Experiment
Station is sending out revised
bulletin fully describing this plant.
and showing cut Of it, SO that
farmers and stockmen may be
able to recognize the plant. Every
farmer in the state should send at
once for a copy of this bulletin,
which will be sent free. Will the
farmers let us know every case of
poisoning of stock in the state? If
farmers and stockmen would take
the trouble to look the matter up,
many valuable animals might be
saved this exceptionally dry year.
