Last August an instruction broke out
In Cuba which it speedily grew evident
that the existing Cuban Government was
powcrless to quel. This Government was
repeatedly asked by the then Cuban Gov
ernement to intervene, and finally wag
notified by the President Of Cuba that
he intended to resign; that his decision
was irrevocablc; that none of the other
constitutional officers would consent to
carry on tile Government, and that he
was powerless to maintain order. 1t was
evident that chaos was impending, and
there was every probability that if steps
were not Immediately taken by this Gov
eminent to try to restore order, the repre-
sentatives of various European nations in
the island would apply to their respective
governments for armed intervention in or
der to protect the lives and property Of
their citizens. Thanks to the prepared

There is an old say ng that if you
welcome the new year with toasts and
good things to eat plenty will attend
YOU all the year. An oyster supper
with novel decorations is a nice little
feast for a New Year eve spread. For
the menu something on the following
order would be attractive: oyster cock
tails in green peppers, oyster soup and
croouettes and chicken with oyster
sauce. The ices could be served in the
shape of an oyster. Table decorations
for such a supper can be made both
pretty and appropriate.
An original centerpiece is a small
sailing vessel placed on pillows of
green cheese-cloth. The table, of course
will be bare and polished, save for the
doylies. Heaped around the nautical
centerpiece is a small rOckery of oys-
ter shells. At the end of the supper
each guest pulls a ribbon attached to
| these shells, which contain funny little
gifts. Dainty favors are white card
board boxes trimmed with imitation
| seaweed. On each box is written a
| quotation relating to the oyster. Such
| as: IAN oyster may be crossed in
| love" Gle was a bold man that first
ate an oyster" 1.-THE world is my

At this time of the year the very
prettiest possessions in the wardrobe
are brought forth. No more saving
now for great occasions, summers
reign is brief at the best, and let US
wear out summer stuffs ere the season
vanish. A group Of warm weather
frocks of exceptional beauty we are
tempted to dwell upon. One was dun
pink muslin, made in quaint modified
Empire fashion; worn with this q
short sacque coat of dark red glace
silk, the hat black chip draped with
black lace and bearing single red
rose In front A tall dark-eyed girl
wore white muslin dress and short
light blue glace coat, with white lace
lingerie hat trimmed with light blue
ribbon. A matron looked exceedingly
we'll in little black glace coat accom-
panying a white voile skirt, white
embroidered collar standing out
against the black of the coat.
White and yellow are sometimes
very sood together, especially II only a
little of the color be used. A white
Danish cloth dress, creamy in tone,
and trimmed with straps of cream
silk, was worn with a yellow straw
hat adorned with yellow plumes. This
costume was effective, and a change
from all-white quite pleasing. The
parasol, of course, was white. Nine out
of every ten parasols seen are white.
A white wool trimmed with bands
of light gray is modish, introducing
the pale gray note and the strap trim
ming liked on tailored dresses Not a
little brilliant green is used in ribbons
for midsummer millinery, and hat
crowns are now of a remarkable
height. This does not mean that the
low-crowned hat of early spring is rel
egated to things that were, but that

VEGETABLE POISON.
Remedies Suggested by Gerald Nc
earthly Of the North Carolina
Agricultural Department.

Animals and children frequently eat
the stems and bulbs of poisonous
plants, with fatal results. To know
Just what to do to relieve vegetable
poisoning is nightly important. Fol-
animals not much can be done. A
draft of warm melted Lard poured
down the throat of the animal from
a long-necked bottle will generally re-
lieve the pain and in most cases, when
used soon after the effect of the pol
son becomes visible, will save the ami.
mails life.
In case of children, prompt emetid
should be the first thing. Sulphate OF
zinc from 20 to 80 grains in cupful
of warm water, is effective, as is q
teas. oonful of mustard in a cup OF
warm water. After the emetic has
acted, give some sweet oil, cream or
fresh milk. If the pain is severe
from five to ten drops of laudanum
may be added to the oil, cream or
milk. If the patient becomes drowsy.
give strong coffee or whisky in small,
repeated doses and keep patient walk
ing. Children should be taught to
avoid eating strange plants and stock
should not be turned out too early
when hunger forces them to eat
plants they instinctiyely avoid al
other times.

FARM FACTS.

Fight weeds with grass.
A clean turf adds beauty to the land
scape.
The grass crop is worth more than
we generally suppose.
Keep up the farm buildings for the
looks of the thing, If for nothing else.
Much improvement has been made
In the varieties of our grains, but none
In our varieties of grasses.
The cultiyator should be put to work
while the weeds are small-so small
that they don't make much show. And
weeds must be kept down if good crop
results are expected.
The roots of alfalfa frequently grow
TO 10 feet, enabling it to draw much
OF its food from the subsoil. 1t thus
enriches the land for succeeding crops
ana opens it up to the action of air
and water.

forgets the outlay. With the pink
handkerchief linen a very fine Swiss
embroidery goes beautifully, and en-
ploy the embroidery sparingly, not to
detract from daintiness. There liz
no lovelier summer combination than
the com bination Of pink and white, and
to-day the pinks all being in such es-
TEEN, 1t has fashion as well as pretti-
ness to commend 1t.
Very delicate dresses are worn on
the street, the public thoroughfares
thereby given a holiday aspect. Once
it would have appeared strange to see
matron strolling along the street in
dress of pale blue silk, but not to-
day. A young matron looks very
pretty and youthful in a gown of light
blue taffeta, its fashion SO simple as to
cause no comment when made use of
as church dress. There is a separate
upper Fart and ruffied sleeve of cream
cotton lace, so soft and pretty one for
gets 70 ctiticise quality. The girdle.
as girdles should be, is of the material
of the main part of the dress-nothing
more awkward, 1t seems to us, than
a girdle drawing attention to the
point where waist and skirt meet. To
return to the costume whose details we
have suggested, the hat accompanying
this toilet is yellow lace straw. the
long gloves the same shade.
For the aesthetic value, every bip
automobile should have group of
summer ladies on the back seat, their
voluminous draperies and floating wells
taking from the machine aspect of the
ugly vehicles. Yesterday an auto
flashed by with three ladies in the
rear seat, and we noted all three wore
white chiffon wells, and that the effect
was better than when coIors are
Haunted. II of good quality the chif-
fon veil may be washed in soap and

WIDTH OF TIRE TO DRAFT
Figures Taken from Bulletin of the
Missouri Agricultural Experi-
ment Station.

An Ohio correspondent writes an
inquiry regarding some tests as to
the relative draft of wide and narrow
tired wagons on all kinds of roads and
fields. to which the Ohio Farmer re-
plies that the bulletin referred to was
probably bulletin No 80, Missouri Ag-
ricultural experiment station, which
gives the results of the extensive tests
by Prof. J. H. Waters. The net load
used was always one ton, but the six
inch-tired wagon was 245 pounds
heavier than the 1-5-inch-tired one.
making the loads 1925 and 1880
pounds, respectively. when the wagons
were not encountered with mud. The
results were as follows, in brief: On
good macadam roads the draft of the
wide tires was rs per cent. less than
the narrow. On gravel road wide tire
was 24.1 per cent. less. On dirt roads,
dry and smooth, no dust, wide tire was
26.S per cent less. On clay road, deep
spongy mud, drying on top, wide tire.
was SO to 81 per cent. less than narrow.
On meadow, pasture, stubble, from wet
to dry, wide tire was from IL to 10
per cent. less than narrow. Ordinarily
the difference would not be SO marked,
as the difference in width Of tires is
not so great, usually. But there is no
question of the great advantage In
having wide tires. Another feature
that is important, and that has been
enforced by law in some counties, Is
to have the width Of tread In the rear
and forward axles different This pre-
vents the wheels from tracking and
saves cutting up the road to great
extent.
