Lilies of the valley. in fact, play n

Loops Of misty tulle, twisted in
through the flowers, are an echo OF the
wedding veil that softens the whole
effect Of the bouquet, and transforms
it into something at once unusual and
exquisite,
"Bernhardt' bouquets are built on
the lines Of sickle with the flowers

SUN THE BABY

Summing the baby is the latest thing
in baby culture, says an exchange, No
household is too poor to possess one Of
these patent adjustable sun parlors
They are made of some kind Of hard
wood and are built by the carpenter TO
extend beyond the window. The top
and sides Of the little platform are
covered with glass, and strips Of carpet
are laid on the floor, to stop up any
cracks there may be. No matter how
fiercely the winds may blow or how
low the thermometer may sink the sun
parlor Is always ready for the baby,
A pillow is placed on the carpeted floor,
then the baby is warmly dressed and
well covered for its morning or after
noon nap. Mothers who have tried
this method of summing the baby are
boasting Of the gain in weight and
health, and have the proud satlsfac-
ton Of knowing they are strictly up to
date,-Brooklyn Eagle.

RIBBON AS TRIMMING

One Of the most suggestive features
of the hour is the employment of rib.
.p.pon as trimming. 1t ranges all the
ttway from the tiny comet ribbon to the
wide, soft sash ribbon. Ribbons are
much used on summer gowns. and
there are any number of striped aSd
shaded ribbons used for decoration.
Sashes and girdles reign supreme, belts
having gone out Of date since the ap-
pearance ofpointed bodlces. Very mar
row comet or baby ribbon is used
either as embroidery or in shirred de-
signs. For example, a ruffie Of broad
ribbon may be trimmed with several
rows Of very narrow ribbon put on in
the form Of tiny ruching Another
trimming is made by shirflng the rib
bon on both edges and applying it
like a scant puff. Not a few Of the
cashmere cloth gowns are trimmed
with shlrred ribbon.

DOMESTIC SERVICE.

The aversion which working women
in this country feel to entering domes-
tic service appears to be shared by the
women Of European nations 0bservs
ers in England some time ago noted
with alarm that young girls who were
Obliged to work would do almost any
thing else sooner than become house
servants. Now, Mr.. Cuneo, American
consul in Turin, reports the same Of the
italian girls in that section Of the coun-
try. Mr.. CuneO says he has known
people no look for domestic help for
weeks in vain the fact being that there
as in the United States intelligent and
ambitious young women seek employ
ment as teachers, as clerks in post
offices and stores, as secretaries, slen-
ographers, typewriters, in factorieN-
in fact, they seem to prefer any kind
of employment to domestic work 1t
seems that they even prefer to drive
teams, to pull or push carts on the
streets or to become porters to being
domestic servants"
The industrial opportunities which
Italy opens to these women ought 10
warm the cookies of the heart in any
woman suffraglat whoyearns to see her
sex competing freely with men in the
various activities Of life. Mr.. Cuneo
relates how, not bong ago, he visited
Forno a'smalT Alpine village. There
being no wagon road to within five
miles of the village, all necessaries ex-
cept few vegetables have to be car
ried mostly from 0megna, a distance
OF ten miles. In my walk to Forno and
back / frequently met women with
large baskets on their backs, strapped
to each shoulder, and l saw that the
baskets were filed with provisions and
merchandise,
81 also noticed that the royal mail
was thus carried This carrying is
given to the lowest bidders and as
women are willing to work cheaper
than men they have monopoly of tine
carrNng business, and men have been
driven TO find employment in other
liaes. ~ Massachusetts Ploughman.

RELIEVING CALVES FROM FLIES.

During the summer months flies are
4 constant torment to young calves.
The chronological department Of the
Kansas State Agricultural College has
been experimenting and compromising
various substances I'm order to produce
an effective and economical mixture,
which, when applied to the surface OF
an animal would wJFd Off the fies AS
q result OF these experiments 1t has
succeeded In producing the following
formula, which seems TO answer the
purpose easOnably well: Resin, one
and half pounds; laundry soap, two
cakes; fish oil One-half pint; enough
water to make three gallons. Dissolve
the resin In solution Of soap and
water by heating; add the fish oil and
the rest of the water. Apply with a
brush, If to be used as a spray, add
one.half pint of Kerosene. This mix
ture will cost from seven TO eight cents
per gallon and may be used on either
calves or cows. One-balf pint Of this
mixture is considered enough for one
application for cow; n calf, Of course,
wOMd require considerable less. 1t will
be more economical to apply this only
TO the parts of the animal not reached
by the tail. At first it will perhaps be
necessary to give two or three applica-
tions per week, until the outer ends OF
the hair become coated with resin; af-
ter that retouch those parts where the
resin is rubbed off.-American Cultlva-

THE WOMEN OF INDIA

How to improve the condition of its
women is one Of the greatest problems
winch faces India. That their lot has
Deen a hard one; that they have not
been given n fair chance in life: that
the natives Of India can never rise TO a
high position among the nations until
their women have been elevated, is
being more and more commonly ad.
mitted
with the progress Of education and
the growth Of the more civilized com.
munity Indian women are slowly com.
ing to understand that many spheres
or activity and usefulness which hith-
erto have been closed to them are as
appropriate for them ms for their hus-
bands and brothers. For the present
this community must lead in all these
movements. The Marathi Mission Of
the American board, working in the
Bombay presidency, has now fairly de-
yeloped several industries for girls.
The most important are weaving with
hand looms, rug.making, lace embroii-
cry and art needle work. The oblec.
tions to the first and second Of these
are that the profits are small. and that
they require machinery and equip
ments which prevent their being de.
veloped except in factories. In India,
much more than in the United States,
factories are unsafe places for girls.
The third and fourth industries are
most appropriate for Indian young
women, They can be developed in
private homes or anywhere else; they
require only small and inexpensive
outfit; they offer large scope for skill,
Intelligence and taste, and also bring
fair prohts.-Southem Workman.

interesting points on the history, cul.
ture and cultivated forms Of the dnhlia.

Swedish hOtanist, In 1857, Spanish
physician, Francisco Hernandez, wrote
n book on plants, in which he de.
scrlbed Dnhlia Tariabilis. the species
from which most, IL not all, Of our
present varieties have originated. la
1889 seeds sent from 3eXico were
started in the Royal Gardens at
Madrid, Spain, but two years later this
lot Of seedlings was lost. The cultl-
vatlon of the plant, however, was soon
after undertaken in European coun-
tries, and 1t soon became popular,
The first fully double flowers were
obtained in 1914, 1t is plant Of easy
culture. and Is adapted to great yarl-
ETY. Of soils. The dahlia, II properly
treated. will begin to bloom i'm northern
countries in about seventy-fve days
from the date Of planting dormant
tubers. The plants are desirable for
the private garden. and for parks and
cemeteries, The cut flowers in vases
are much used for table and mantel
decorations, and by florists in making
up wreaths and other designs, The
Cactus variety Is now the most popular
form. but the show and fancy types
Of the double form are still highly es.
teemed. The number Of varieties is
very great, and many Of them should
be discarded. Six or eight good yaric-
ties Of clear, bright self.colored flowers
would usually satisfy those Of even
critical taste. Home and Flowers.

NOT POETIC, BUT PROFITABLE.

Here is a tip to the woman who is
a gardener for business reasons. She
should raise onions, For them the
farmer can get a dollar a bushel, with
a prospect Of higher prices before long.
The onion crop ip Europe was failure
last year, and a great many are being
sent over the water at the present time.
Twenty thousand bushels were sent in
one consignment from Sunderland,
Mass, few days ago. 1t is estimated
that there are now about 10000 bush
els in the Connecticut valley which can
be bought by people who have got
the price" They are said to be mostly
owned by four men.
There is a very good profit in raising
onions at a dollar a bushel-a good
deal more than in producing tobacco at
the present time. Indeed, it may be
doubted whether there is any other
crop which pays so handsomely as the
odorlferous vegetable which is now
commanding such a high price in this
part of the country"

The dry feed system is becoming

chickens grow better and the death
rate is smaller, says the American Cul-
tiNator.
Some growers feed only once n day
with the grain and meat mixture, but
the more common method is to feed
several times daily. The mixture OF
fine grain and meat scraps can be
bought already prepared for use at
most poultry supply stores. 1t is fed
