simply starving for fresh air, and if they
would throw away their pill bottles and

4 CHICAGO GIRLS SECRET.
She Says That Swiss Worn Over
White Wash Silk Has the Ef-
feet Of 0rgandy.

''Where did you get that exquisite Or
candle waist?" asked q girl the other
day of a friend who wore dainty crea-
ton that buttoned up the back with tiny
lace buttons.
"rll let you into the secret" said the
friend. 1T is not Y particularly fine
organdy or swiss, rather, for it is swiss,
which washes better than the organdy
but it looks SO, because l wear it over
the thinnest kind of white wash silk
blouse, which is made plainly, but along
the same lines. This gives the swiss a
cloudy, flmy and kind Of billowy ef-
feet, that makes 1t look like chiffon.
It throws up each little thread of the
lace trimming, SO that it appears like
something costly instead of the ordinary
wash valenciennes, which it is. And it
gives a soft effect to the skin.
1.-THE lining, too, saves the swiss, 80
that by washing it out in the wash bowl
and pressing it which nearly dry the
waist itself can be worn two or three
times without doing up. Besides all this,
instead of having to lay the whole thing
away this fall, I intend to wear it with
the lining. all winter. Try it yourself"
added the girl. generously, "but be sure
and get the softest and lightest silk pos
sible, as a more expensive quality will
not mix so 'artistically with the waist
fabric and look so much like a part of 1t. :"

CAN DRINK TROUBLE.
That's One Way to Get It.

That's how came to send out and
get some Postum and from that time
I've never been without it for 1t suits
my taste and has entirely cured all
Of my old troubles. All l did was to
leave off the coffee and tea and driak

GOAT RAISING IN MEXICO.
The Common Species Has Been In
troduced and Is Source
Of Some Profit.

Consular Agent Headen writes from
Puebla, Mex, as follows:
''The ordinary domestic goat, so well
known In the United States, is the spe-
cies raised throughout Mexico. It is
valued for its pelt its tallow, and its
flesh, both fresh and dried. As yet no
use has been made of either horns or
hoofs. In the vicinity Of San Luis
Potosi the entrails have been spun into
long strings of so-called catgut, and the
finer and more delicate strings have
been probably exported by mail, in
small parcels, to Chicago and New York.
'"The Angora breed is not appreciated
in Mexico, though it finds favor in west
ern Texas, near the Mexican border.
II of pure blood and If neglected during
the season for pulling it is apt to leave
its hair scattered upon the scrub and
brush. Furthermore, whether pure or
crossed. it is more of a sheep than a
goat, it's skin being less than one-fourth
rs valuable as ordinary goatskins. This
destroys the value Of the Angora in
Mexico
"The ordinary goat, when slaugh-
tered, yields four pounds of dried meat
and six pounds of refined tallow, which.
together with the skin, are worth here
in the home market, in Mexican silver,
$3.46 ($1.57 in gold)-four pounds of
dried meat, at 20 cents. 80 cents; the
six pounds of refined tallow, at 16 cents,
SO cents; the cured skin, two pounds,
at IS cents, $40. The original cost of
goats for breeding purposes is, on an
average, $3.50 head in Mexican sill
yer ($1.10 in gold). The common goat,
we'll cared for, Is hardy and we'll suited
to the country. It breeds four times in
three years."
