The waist consists of the fitted lin

under-arm cores. The fronts are laid
in tucks at the shoulders, which ex-

The First Styles in Furs.

Advanced styles in furs show the
most elaborate combinations seen in
years. Lace, particularly Irish, point
and guipure, is combined with fur in
wraps, boas and stOles. The muffs
have great rufiles of lace on either
end.
Wraps are trimmed deliberately with
narrow fur bands. A favOrite COM
binatiOn is black velvet with sable FIR
and Irish point. For wear with such
a wrap there comes an enormous di-
rectOire hat of black velvet, and
around the crown is a four-inch band
o. Irish point, edged with narrow
sable bands. Sable tails droop from
the back of the hat, and tucked under
the brim in the front, close to the
face, is a bunch of American Beauty
roses.

fact that it can boast of a distinct
bodice and skirt. The bodice is deep
ly pointed at the waist line, and the
front shows yoke and plastron of net

sleeve shows moderate puff above a
tightly-ftted cuff of lace. The skirt

Cured Her Rheumatism,

Deep Valley, Pa, Oct. 31.-(Spe-
cial.)-There is deep interest in Green
county over the cure of the little
daughter of |. N. Whipkey of Rheu-
matism. She was great sufferer for
five or six years and nothing seemed
to do her any good till she tried Dodds
Kidney Pills. She began to improve
almost at once and now she is cured
and can run and play as other chill
dren do. Mr.. Whipkey says:
81 am indeed thankful for what
DCdd's Kidney Pills have done for my
daughter; they saved her from being
a cripple perhaps for life"
Dodd's Kidney Pills have proved
that rheumatism is one of the results
of diseased Kidneys. Rheumatism is
caused by Uric Acid in the blood II
the Kidneys are right there can be no
Uric Acid in the blood and conse-
quently no Rheumatism. Dodd's Kid
ney Pills make the Kidneys right.

Little Woman's Adaptations,

Her object is to look as big as she
can, and many succeed in giving the
impression that they are a great deal
taller than they are by taking care of
the lines of the figure. There is more
in the way she holds herself than the
highest heels than can be worn. She
should hold her head up and her Shout
ders back. Then much depends upon
her skirt; a skirt that is long in
front increases her apparent height.
Short women should not wear capes,
and wide belts are to be avoided. A
long waist gives height and long
skirt gives the impression of greater
length of figure.

SiIaqe in the Cow Ration.

At the last roundup Of Wisconsin
Institutes, c. P. Goodrich said:
Now, will tell you how 1 think is
provide summer feed for cows. 1t is
to have a good silo and put up corn
silage. If you have good pasture this
silo needs to be only about one-half as
large as the one which holds the win
ter silage. 1t should be smaller in
diameter, but just as deep, SO that
enough can be fed from the top each
day to keep the silage from being dam
aged by exposure to the air. In this
way you can have the best Of feed to
tide over a time of drouth and short
pasture. 1t will be always ready and
in the most convenient form possible
to feed. The COWS will eat the silage
with great relish every day. no matter
how good the pasture is, though they
will not eat as much as in winter,
when on otherwise dry feed.
l know personally several men who
practice this way and feed silage every
day in the year, and l need not tell
you they are very successful men.
know a few men who feed silage the
year round who do not have any land
in pasture. l have in mind one now
who has a small farm and keeps as
many head of cattle as he has acres Of
land. He has nearly one-third Of his
land in alfalfa, and the balance, out.
side of that occupied by buildings and
yards, Is used for growing oats and
corn. He has the material for a good,
we'll balanced, succulent ration the
year round, and his cows produce
splendidly. Practically one acre feeds
cow. If he needs to buy a little
concentrated feed the pork made from
the skim milk is ample for that pur.
pose.
Need I tell you that this man is
getting for his labor and his feed a
very high price indeed? They who do
as he does are getting many times as
much as some men who work harder
than they do, just because they use
intelligence, judgment and skill in
summer COW feeding" as well as in
winter cow feeding" and in selection,
breeding and care of cows.

burned, because the owner does not
figure out that the fertility in the
straw is worth hauling the straw to
the barnyard for. He says that any
way the ash is left and there is some
fertility in that. Taking all in all he
is under the impression that he is get
ting about as much out of his straw by
burning it as in any other way, un-
less he can sell it or feed 1t to stock.
But all Investigations go to show
that humus plays much larger part
in the matter of soil value than we
thought. Every pound of straw should
be brought back onto the land in
some form. A number of cattle will
trample up a good deal of it IL 1t is
thrown into the barnyard from time
to time. This would be especially the
case with some barnyards we have
seen and it would at the same time
greatly improve the condition OF the
barnyards.
Get the straw and the manure mixed
together in the shortest possible time.
When the straw is mixed with the ma
nure it is surprising how quickly it
will go to pieces. One farmer has a
barnyard that does not cover more
than half an acre, yet into that every
year he puts the cornstalks from forty
acres Of land. The stalks become
quickly pulverized under the feet OF
the farm animals and in the course OF
months one fails to recognize in the
manure any cornstalks.
OF course this means work, but 1t
means also the keeping up of the pro
ducing capacity Of the land. 1t also
means the keeping up of the ability
of the land to resist drouth. Get the
straw into the manure and then get
the manure into the field as quickly as
possible after 1t is fit to go there.

vei'o,

Wells have become a very important
accessory Of the up-to-date woman's
wardrobe. Many of them are not only
unattractive, but are also unbecoming.
The draped veil Is considered modish.
The best of this variety are of fine
chiffon with hemstitched hem or rib
bon border. Beneath this is worn a
dotted veil. Every color of the rain
bow has been used by the manufacture
er to dye wells. Great care should be
taken in the combining of these vari-
Gus shades. All shades and colors are
permissible in the draped veil, but
brown, blue and black are favored.
Black and green, blue and black are
admissible combinations. Some of the
expensive chiffon wells are tandem
broidered in dots and figures and shad-
ed colors.

perience and Undergoes n Marvellous
Change.
Mrs. E. Doherty, of No. lis Coates
street, Moberly, Mo-, is today a picture of
robust health, and yet five years ago, she
barely escaped death from progressive
emaciation. To reporter she told the
following story:
"In 1896 began to have distressing
attacks Of indigestion that continued for
two years. My stomach was constantly
sore and burned as if it was OH fire. 1t
became finally so delicate that it would
not retain even plain water. My inability
to take food reduced my weight to ninety
eight pounds, and faintness and dizziness
kept me in bed most of the time. was
really starving to death and besides was
extremely nervous. The doctor was
perplexed. He gave me tonics which
did me no gooI, and prescribed exercise
which was too weak to attempt.
Zone day when I was so faint and
chilled that could do nothing but crouch
down on the floor by the fire, my father
brought me box of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. found on trial
that they would stay on my stomach un-
like everything else. really felt better
after three doses and kept on using
them. Food began to taste well and to
stay down. The pain and the burning
in the pit OF my stomach lessened and at
last went away altogether. My weight
began to increase until it reached
1876 pounds and my neighbors, who
were convinced that was wasting to
death before, were astonished at the
change. Presumed my homework and
have hardly had occasion to call doctor
since. have recommended DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills to several friends, and
I say to the pale, thin ones particularly,
If you want to get strong and well take

These pills cure stomach trouble by
their tonic action, building up the di-
gestive organs and enabling them to do
the work that nature intended them to
do. They are sold by all dealers, or will
be sent postpaid on receipt Of price, fifty

elaborate rows of ribbon and irser-
ton. The ribbon is chosen to match
the gown or waist in color, and the
rows are arranged perpendicularly
with q deep fall of lace or fringe as a
finish. Some of these collars have
longer ends in front, but, as a rule,
they are made without, simply encir.

shoulders in a shoulder-cape effect.

Premonition of the overskirt

There are already evidences of the
fulfillment of predictions regarding the
return of the overskirt. Up to the
present i. is the apron front which
is chiefly seen. This has appeared in
cloth skirts as an effect produced by
the braiding or strapping which heads
the deep bottom flounce. 1t has also
been seen in a whimsical combination
where an apron front and a little
Louis coat, both of fancy taffeta, have
been worn over mOusseline or lace
skirts.
