GUINEA FOWLS.

Guinea fowls are not kept in nearls
sufficient numbers by the ordinary
farmer or poultry keeper. Certainly
they are not expensive birds to raise.
as thcy are thorough foragers on their
own account. They do not destroy
crops, as oats. barley and such like
when in young state. as the ordinary
hen does. Some object to guinea
fowls by reason of the shrill noise
they emit. while others sa- they can
not manage them by night, as they
are SO fond of roosting in the neigh
boring trees, and sundry other objec
lions, such as not being able tc
breed from them satisfactorily, etc
This latter Is owing to ignorance In
management. Guinea fowls are like
partridges-they mate in the early
spring if the sexes are equal. The
proper plan is to pick out the same
number of male birds and females
and no difficult need then be expert
enced in obtaining fertile eggs. As
to the profit derived from guinea
fowls. there is no difficulty at all in
selling the eggs, but the demand for
the birds is not always, large. 1t is
when the game season is at an end
that guinea fowls find sale in market

PRETTY PARTY ACCESSORIES.

There is SO much more than just a
pretty frock in the perfect party out
fit. No girl likes to hide her lovely
gown en-. route to dance in just any
old ulster or macintosh. A dainty
cloak with a delicate gown is half
the pleasure of fiuttering away to any
evenings merrymaking. says Mary
Annabel Fanton. These things really
count as much in well planned out
fit as the correct footgear or the right
sort of corsage bouquet of beads of
some sort-for girl is not smartly
costumed for any occasion this sea
son without beads in harmony with
the colors of her frock.
Girls who have any gift for design
ing and sewing get up small clubs,
just the most intimate chums. and
make their own cloaks, hoods and
bags. And once the cost of making
is done away with, these pretty Access
that almost no girl need be debarred
from he pleasure of their pleasant
possession.
Cashmere. brilliantine. nuns veil
ing, velveteen, camers hair and
ladies' cloth are all appropriate ma
terials for cloaks. And for comfort
and convenience's sake they are lined
with silk or satin. Accordion plated
China silk makes a most graceful. eff
fective lining.
OF course they must be interlined
with wadding unless fur is used. The
cheapest fur is gray and white squir-
rel, but the cheapest makes cloak
fairly expensive and broche silk or
brocaded satin is much dressier. The
cheapest fur trimming is lamb or
white astrakan, or the soft white hair.
And it is very fashionable to have
Just a narrow collar of fur.
1t is a pretty, artistic idea to have
slipper bag TO match the lining;
but it can be made of odds and ends
