A Woman's Wealth.
Paine's Celery

GIVES VIGOR AND
STRENGTH TO DEBILITATED AND
RUN DOWN WOMEN.

It IS maintained by many distinguished
writers that the greatness of nation depends
much upon the physical condition of its
women. The general conditions which con-
tribute to health and long life, are those which
do not imply rapid and unequal exhaustion
of those powers by which life is maintained.
While we assert that the women of our land
stand peerless for beauty and the virtues that
make them lovable, we cannot hide the fact
that there are thousands in our midst who's
owing to overwork, worry, household cares,
and an unequal exhaustion of life power, have
become weak, nervous, sleepless, and debih-
tated.
We bring to the attention of all weary,
respondent, hopeless, and sickiy women

RETURN OF THE GARNET.
After Years Of Total Eclipse This
Pretty Stone Il Coming Into
Vogue Once More.

Garnets, after long eclipse have
come into fashion with a rush, and
girls are ransacking their mothers
Jewel boxes for ancient garnet neck
laces, buckles and brooches, worn by
grandmamma in the sos, and handed
down to descendants who proved rather
unappreciative OF the blessing.
These semi-precious stones are ex-
auisitely becoming for evening wear,
when they shine with brilliant GRIM
son glow most fattering to the skin OF
the wearer. Brunettes particularly
look extremely well in these stones. aud
nothing can be more becoming than one
of the old garnet tiaras still to be found
here and there worn in mass of waved
dark locks. For day wear they are
rather disappointing, because somewhat
jetty in effect.
Carbuncles are the uncut variety OF
the same stone, large specimens being
ground and polished cabochon fashion.
The resulting gem is handsomer Than
the cut garnet, and dearer. It is not,
however, so fashionable as the masses
of small brilliant cut stones which one
generally sees. Garnet buckles are
sometimes used in black millinery with
excellent effect.-Detroit Free Press.

POULTRY YARD NOTES.

It IS not necessary that tho poultry
plant to be attractive looking should be
either expensive or elaborate in its
features.
Neatness pays, because neAtness tn
construction and arrangement means
completeness; and completeness in
equipment always contributes toward
convenience, and hence toward economy
in labor.
Three essentials to success in poultry
keeping: A good location, strong
healthy fowls of an early maturing
variety, interest in the. work that will
lead one to be ever on the alert for help
full knowledge.
A poultry plant, whether large or
small, whether consisting Of single
house, or of many houses, should be
neat. and both the arrangements of the
houses and the arrangement of furnish
ings in the houses should be convenient
Judging the causes of failure by what
we see and know Of many failures we
NAV affirm with positiveness that the
three most common causes of failure in
poultry keeping are: Lack Of exper RI
ence, lack Of capital, lack OF business
ability.-Farm Poultry.

DAINTY SOFA PILLOW.
An Exquisite Fancy Work Idea from
France, at Once Simple and
Yet Decorative.

Pretty sofa pillows add greatly to
the furnishings and general appearance
of a room, and the one I am about to
describe, with it's exquisite ribbon-work
blossoms, cannot fail to please even the
most fastidious. The French people
are noted for their artistic tastes, and it
is to them that we are indebted for this
dainty art of ribbon work.
In this pillow, violets and their TO-
liage are the motif; huge bunch in one
corner, a little group or two in others,
and some loose, scattered ones, leaving
the careless grace of the natural flower
plainly evident. The material used as
a background is brown linen. A cream
colored basket weave canvas is alsoVery
beautiful carried out in this manner.
The leaves and stems are first embroid-
cred solidly in shades of green floss,
and then comes the ribbon work.
For this two or three shades of violet
colored silk ribbon are required, rib
bon that is soft, pliable and about half
inch wide. One shade can be made to
answer, but the result is much more
pleasing if two or three are used, and as
the same quality and width are required
the expense will be no greater. The
French embroidery ribbons are shaded
themselves, so that only the one length
is needed, but it is not always possible
to secure them. About four yards will
be necessary in this instance.

not too coarse Thread this with ?

inches above the platform, will accom-
modate as many fowls as should be kept
in each pen.
The partitions between the pens should
be tight and of boards two and one-half
feet high with wire netting above. A
house of this length should be divided
by two solid partitions to prevent drafts.
These partitions should likewise extend
through the alley, the doors being hung
on double action hinges. Nests should
be located under the platform and open
into the pens and alley SO that eggs can
be gathered without going into each
pen.
The house may be built in any way
to suit the owners fancy and pocket
book. The most durable house, of
course, would be set on a brick or
stone foundation, and be constructed OF
spruce timber and sheathed both inside
and outside of studding. The front wall
should be FIVE or six feet between the
studs and rear wall six feet to provide
head room in the alley. The roof may
be shingled or covered with any of the
best grades of asphalt felt roofing. The
floor may be of earth or earth raised
several inches above the surrounding
surface. The cost Of house OF this
kind will vary from $3.50 to So per run
ming foot, depending upon manner Of
construction. cost of material and la
Dor. Twenty hens or pullets are enough

securely on the wrong side under one
of the violets, using ordinary needle
and thread with which to do the tack
ing. Now thrust the needle and ribbon
through to the right side just at the
center of the violet, and down again
at the outer edge of one of the petals,
continuing thus until all are finished,
making each petal with one stitch.
The ribbon is then cut off and the end
secured underneath as in the beginning.
Care should be taken alter each
stitch to make the folds or wrinkles
which the ribbon assumes, turn down.
ward toward the linen instead OF curv-
ing up. Sometimes a tiny stitch or
two with silk thread of the same
shade is necessary to make the ribbon
stay in place, but this should not
be resorted to if it can be avoided, as
it produces a stiff, set look, which is
not desirable. II more than one shade
is used, make some flowers darker
than others, or the upper petals in
some cases lighter or darker than the
lower ones, planning to have the Bios
SONS as varied as possible.
The hearts of the violets are then
embroidered with few stitches of pale
green floss on the large petals running
from the center a short distance down
the petal This touch Of green is then
surmounted by couple of stitches "
yellow at either side of it and uniting
in the center, thus forming an inverted
V over the ribbon. These stitches aid
in holding the ribbon in place, and
must be put in only after the ribbon
is in it's proper position.
Use violet or green silk or nearsilk
for the back Of this pillow, and finish
the edge with a cord of like color

for Making Biddy Forget HeS
Dream of Maternity

When a hen gets notion into her
diminutive brain that it is her mission
to lead bunch of downy-coveredc chicks
over the garden it is a very difficult
thing to convince her otherwise. There
may be many excellent reasons ao-
vanced by the farmer why it is not de-
sired that she should take upon herself
this unselfsh duty; but no matter how
many or excellent are his reasons, they
carry no weight with the hen.
Being chased from one nest, she will
take her place on another, and in the
absence of eggs she will set on any,
thing, from a load of cobblestones to
watermelon. Fooled at one effort, she
will make another, and cling to the OBJ

Advantages of Incubators.

Among the numerous advantages OF
the incubator over the hen may be men,
toned the following: The incubator is
always ready for business while hen
only sits when she feels like it. 1t is
less work to care for an incubator than
for a sufficient number of hens to hatch
the same number of chickens. The
greater the egg capacity used. the more
time is saved over that required for the
care of the hens. The chickens are so
much more uniform in size and age that
they are more easily cared for. more
cheaply fed and present much more
attractive appearance when fitted for
the market Again chickens Matched in
incubators are always free from lice and
generally remain so till they are large
enough not to be much injured by them.

hatched chickens.-Prairie Farmer.

CANARY ISLAND LACES.

Joy the delicate mesh of this lace from
the islands of southern seas.
The natives of the Canary islands
draw the threads of the linen just as do
the lace workers of Paraguay and Mex
leo, and work out their lace patterns
upon the remaining threads in the cor
ners and borders of their pieces.
Strangely commingled in their work are
the old Spanish stitches, introduced by
the Moors, and evident in nearly all fine
antique lace, and the Indian lace stitch
common to South and Central American
Indians. This quaint mingling Of two
styles of lace stitches gives Canary is
land lace place of its own.
The borders and corners of the table
pieces are very richly worked in an open
design that alternates with closely
worked pattern the general tendency OF
which is to square effects. It is in these
portions of the adornment that Moorish
influences are perceptible, for the edges
of all the pieces are finished with disks
very similar in make to those OF the
Mexicans.
Some of the plate doilies have the
prettiest little star shapes OF open
thread lace, as though some native had
copied starfsh or perhaps dreame d
sweet, starlit dreams and woven the
thread of fancy into the meshes of her

All the small doilies are of solid lace,

island lace will rejoice at the solid re-
curns from America which they receive
in exchange for it's beauty, although to
them the information that ''all the mos,

Green Bones for Poultry.

Green bones provide not only phos-
pilates and nitrogen, but also lime for
the shells Of the eggs; hence, oyster
shells are not the only source from
which to procure lime. Ordinary bone
contains from six to seven per cent of
carbonate of lime, from so to IS per
cent Of phosphate of lime. and from 20
to 80 per cent. Of organic matter, with
proportions Of magnesia, etc. Fresh
green bones also contain, besides the
lime compounds, some proteins, or
f1esh-formers, which add to their value
as poultry-food. The best mode of pre-
pairing them is to have them cut with a
bone-cutter.-Farm and Fireside.

CAPITAL FOR POULTRY.
Some Reasons Why Begin m ers Should
Start in Small Way and Build
Up Gradually.

When one has had no experience he
should begin with the lowest expense
and at the least risk. If the capital is
small it is better to rent for a year or
two rather than to buy, for the reason
that il one buys he reduces his work.
ing capital, and should he be unsuccess-
full he Iuust stay on the farm until he
can sell-.t. If he rents he can return the
farm to- the owner and leave. 1t is
claimed, however, that if one buys he
can begin and get everything ready for
a permanent stay, which is true, but
that is just what an inexperienced per-
son should not do. He should start in
a small way and make his capital by in
creasfng his f1ocks every year, and by
he will know much more than when he
began. He can then take his fowls to a
purchased farm and feel that he has
made good beginning. That is one
point in favor of pouItry-the making
of capital. No one should expect too
much for the first two years. Allow five
years, begin with but little capital, let
the fowls increase, and in five years one
may not have made much money for his
pocket, but if he will figure up what he
has done he will find that he is consider
ably richer. and has saved his capital
instead of taking the risk of losing it all
at once. Nothing on farm pays as
much as poultry, If rightly managed, but
there is no quicker way to lose money
with poultry if one does not know what
he is doing.-Rural World.

Honey rs n Home Remedy.

Honey is a valuable medicine, and has
many uses. 1t is excellent in most lung
and throat affections, and is often used
with great benefit in place of cod liver
oil. Occasionally there is person with
whom it does not agree. but most people
can learn to use it with beneficial re-
suit. Children who have natural appe'
tites generally prefer it to butter.
Honey is laxative and sedative, and
in diseases of the bladder and kidneys II
is an excellent remedy.

here the hens enter the nest at B, from
which the lower board has been removed
to show the arrangement of partitions
between the three nests. When this
board is on, the nests are light enough
for the fowls to find them, but too dark
for them to see the eggs very distinctly.
At A is seen the rear of the next box,
which has a cover that can be raised

the nests renewed. Such nest boxes
should not be nailed to the floor or par
tition wall, but should be hooked fast,
so that they may from time to time be
removed and thoroug hly disinfected.-

WHEN HENS EAT EGGS.

Where egg eating is a habit among
fowls, dark nests will be found very

hard enough to break it when it is in
a semi-light. In the arrangement shown
