respondent who sent them 4, to the
Breeders Gazette: $~""&.5 - .-@&s,
Every man sees what is hard in his
own life and what is easy in the life
Oh everyone else. This is the reason
Why there is so much discomfort
among the human race. The farmer
hauling fodder to his cattle through

beside warm fire in his Office with
MS books and clients, and straightway
wishes he was lawyer; or he thinks
OF the merchant handing out his goods

sees the doctor riding by at fifty cents

wishes he was doctor. Or blackleg

Woke Up the Flagman

The recent renewal of discussion of
the Grand Trunk Pacific project for
second railroad across the Dominion
of Canada reminded a railroad man
the other day of this story of Marcus
Smith:
He made survey of the route
which the new road proposes to follow
when the Canadian Pacific was pro-
jected. The party under Smith was
running lines one sleepy Indian sum-
mer day on the headwaters of the Sas-
katchewan river. When he wanted to
take a sight of the rear flag he dis
covered that it was being held in line.
All sorts of signals were tried, but the
attention of the hagman could not be
attracted.
Finally Smith jumped into buck
board and drove back over the line.
Presently the others of the party
heard half a dozen revolver shots.
Then Smith came back alone and
with never a word of explanation.
Hours passed, but the tagman did
not appear. They made camp, tent

Sleep and the Weather

DO you knew / think the connec-
ton between atmospheric conditions
and insomnia is much closer than we
believe it u.s." said a thoughtful man
to New Orleans Times-DemOcrat
writer, "and I think have good rea-
son for the faith that is within me,
so far as this matter is concerned. I
suffer great deal on account of
sleeplessness and in at least nine in
stances out of ten the weather is
directly responsible for it. If a vio-
lent change in any way whatever is
about to take place my system will
register the fact with just as much
accuracy as the most delicate devices
used by the expert weather prognos-
ticators.
''Df course, do not mean to say
that 1 have monopoly on this sort
of thing. We are all Influenced to
some extent in one way or an
other by weather changes. But was
speaking more particularly of the re-
lations between atmospheric condi-
ton and insomnia. The connection is
direct and unmistakable. Take the
man, for instance, who is a chronic
sufferer from headache or neuralgia,
or any kindred ailment, and you will
find that an impending change in the
weather will have a tendency to put
his nerves on edge, if I may say it,
and he will find it extremely difficult

Bringing Skirts Up to Date.

The woman who has a good cloth
skirt of light weight, such as wolfe,
etamine or nuns yelling, left from
last summer can bring it up to the
mark of prevailing fashions by the
dexterous adjustment of taffeta or
peau de sole trimmings
If she is tall woman and desires a
yoke effect she can build the yoke
from alternate strips of the cloth and
taffeta. If panel effects are desired,
the stitched bands of silk can be so
laid as to simulate panels.
But the great point Of divergence
between last seasons skirt and this
years lies in the vent Last year the
vent was fastened by well-hidde1,
hooks and eyes. This year it is COM
pletely covered by a box-plaited eff
feet.
To secure this effect in the made
over skirt, lay on box pleat of the
same silk used in trimming, narrow
at the waist line and f1aring slightly
toward the hem of the skirt. This is
fastened tight to the skirt, and can.
not be detected from the same effect
in cloth. Nor does it give a botched
or made-over effect to the garment
because of the general prevalence of
silk trimmings in every imaginable
form.

Design by May Manton.

Design by May Manton-
wear hut is shown in linen batiste,
which is always satisfactory, both
from the. standpoint of comfort and
that of endurance, and is trimmed
with German Valenciennes lace with
bits of fine embroidery between the
tucks which are worked by hand onto
the material. The combination OF
lace with this fine work is one of the
latest whims of fashion and is always
charming. The corset cover is made
with fronts and back, the narrow
tucks being arranged in groups and
stitched to the waist line only, so
allowing comfortable flare over the
hips. The quantity Of material re-
quired for woman of medium size is
III yards Sc inches wide with 8 yards
of lace edging and 17k yards of bead

er and declares that II he had his life
to, live over he would be something
else-just anything but farmer. r.
Nov the farmer Is not the only
man who INDUCES in these grum.
blings. The farmer does not often
wish he was somebody else than some
body else wishes he was a farmer.
The lawyer harassed in his office by
troublesome cases and fought all day
long by opposing counsel, with the
smell OF musty law books and foul
court rooms continually in his nos
trils, envies the farmer whistling as
he follows his plow and team with the
scent of bloom borne to him on every.
breeze. The merchant tormented by
inportunate creditors and laughed at
by irresponsible debtors sees the farm
er sailing his fat steers in the pasture
across the road and wonders why he
was so foolish as to go into the har-
assing, hazardous business OF mer.
chandizing. The doctor reused from
much-needed sleep in cold, stormy
winter night thinks how happy must
be the farmer, whose slumbers no loud
insistent voice ever disturbs."
