Always shrink a new braid before
sewing to a skirt. In shortening q
skirt pattern, too, always fold plait
across the middle of the pattern. Never
shorten from the top or bottom Of the
skirt, or the shape will be spoiled.
Never hold the skirt ON your lap
while basting- that 1t Is
most important to keep 1t flat-so lay
It on a table and haste from top to
bottom with small, even stitches; keep
your seams level and straight
In making up any material with a
nap remember that the nap should al
ways run downward; this fact should
not be forgotten when sponging and
pressing, otherwise you will make a
shiny streak on the surface of your
material.
For an elderly woman, and also for
the woman whose back Is not perfectly
fiat and straight, the shoulder seam
should have more Of tendency toward
the back Of the armhole. A young,
straighter figure may have the shoulder
seams on perfectly straight lines.

Women and Change.

think there is no doubt, whatever
the trend of modern life may argue
to the contrary, that women are still
conservative In their ways and tastes,
and have liking that Is almost feline
for at least one corner of their en-
vironment to remain unchanged. In
their private surroundings, at all
events, few women care for change,
and to the majority a chair or table
placed in different part of the room
will prove cause of irritation wholly
out Of proportion to the cause, says the
Woman's Life. Women may motor,
play bridge, waltz through the small
hours and weary themselves almost to
death by endeavoring to do several
things at once in order to keep ''in the
swim," but 1t Is always a Joy to them
to know that in their own sanctums
they will find things just natural.

What Girls Should Learn.

Statistics show that disease and in
toxicatiOn, crime and divorce, are due
In many cases to miserable cookins.
The superintendent of the board of
charities In Chicago few days ago
said there were 400 divorces In one
year In Chicago because the women
did not know how to cook and to keep
house. A large number of them adj
mitted that they did not know how.
Now, wonder, who Is to blame for all
this? think partly 1t Is the train
Ing we give our girls; they are not
fitted for anything practical In life.
Since the children are not likely to
learn more than the mothers know, the
progress of domestic science will not
be realized until intelligent people
realize the Importance of 1t and sup
port the teaching in the public schools.
When the girls are learning to cook,
they should learn about the products
they work with; about the coffee and
tea, how 1t Is raised and prepared for
the market; about the raising of
wheats and the harvesting and grind
ing in the great mills, which Is so in
teresting, and the making of the flour;
the lesson of bacteria, which is simply
the knowledge of germ life; and here
comes the lesson of the yeast-plant
which Is used in the home every few
days; what they can do with that
and also about other germs that are
harmful and how to keep them out of
the home. They should learn that 1t
Is harmful to leave vegetables and
fruit In the cellar and harbor germs
and, perhaps, diphtheria. Germs lodge
in this mold and increase until finally
the cellar Is full, and they creep up
into the room where the baby lies In
the cradle, and bye-and-bye little cot

Save Falling Leaves.

When the leaves begin to fall, do not
burn them. Save all of them. They
make the humps that by and by be-
comes soil, and Is of immense value in
all Its stages of change. The most ir-
rational work ever done by human
being is to take what nature has spent
the whole summer In creating for him,
and throw 1t back into its elemental
conditions. These leaves are natures
contribution, aQd her very best con-
tribution to mans wealth. They are
naturally spread all over the lawns
each year, as winter protection and
after they have accomplished that mis-
sion they are worked over into COM
post Of humus. As rule, do not rake
them too completely Off the lawns. The
leaves you do take instead Of burning,
use for banking up buildings, for that
will save coal; to cover or bank around
plants; for stable bedding; or on the
floors of henhouses, and in rooms
where the hens may scratch during the
winter.

.Macaroni Wheat.

Grant Robinson of st. Paul, Mimi,
has purchased 10000 acres Of land in
Preside county, Texas, which he will
devote to the culture of macaroni
wheat on a scale the largest ever at
tempted In the world. Extensive prep
arations are now going forward for
the consummation of the plans of the
capitalist. Seed for planting will be
brought to this country from the Vol
ga region of Russia.
The field will be cultivated on the
very latest and most improved method
of wheat farming. Monster stake
plows will be utilized In breaking up
the land in fact, all of the latest types
Of farming machinery will be used on
the plantation.
Mr.. Robinson proposes to have the
largest and best managed wheat farm
In the world. He will build a system
Of tenant houses and supply the wants
Of his laboring men from commissary.
A school will be built for the children
OF the laboring men, as well as church
es. etc. The farm Is near Valentine,
accessible to the railroad, and has
proven under tests to be admirably
adapted to the culture of macaroni
wheat.

all colors and Dresden effects are also
in vogue. The buttons are of all sizes

show combinations of metal and stones,
while many give evidence of elaborate
workmanship.

cases derived from the place where
they were first manufactured; In 9th.
ers, the name Is bestowed In honor OF
the place where 1t frs: became known

composing Its texture. Thus the name
of muslin is derived from Mosul, In

Cambria comes from Cambai; gauze
from GAIA; baize from Bajac; dimity
from Damietta and jeans from Jean.
The name of damask is an abbrevia-
ton of Damascus; satin Is a corrup-
ton of Zaytown, In China.
Velvet Is the Italian vellute, woody,
and is traceable further back to the
Latin vellus, hide or pelt.
Serge comes from Xerges, the Span
ish for certain sort of blanket.
Bandana Ia derived from an Indian
word signifying to bind or tie.
Alpaca Is the name of a species of
llama from whose wool the genuine
fabric Is woven.
Calico Is named for Calcutta, a town

Lime Nftrogen.

quently employed. Nitrogen is the ele-
ment chiefly sought and all known
means of obtaining it cheaply have
been tested. Lately much interest has
been shown in lime nitrogen or calcium
cyanamid. The results of recent expert
ments with this fertilizer indicate a
high value for it. In some tests it has
shown only 80 per cent Of the effec-
tiveness of nitrate Of soda while in
other tests 1t proved superior.
Lime nitrogen seems to be harmful
If placed in direct contact with the
seeds or roots of plants. 1t should pre-
ferably be mixed with the soil and ap-
piled from eight to fourteen days be-
fore seeding. 1t will then greatly has
ten the growth and maturity of gar
den plants. Some gardeners have
found that 1t Is best to mix the lime
nitrogen with the soil Ave to ten inches
below the surface. The best results
have been obtained by mixing the fer
tilizer with twice its weight of dry
Soil before applying. Lime nitrogen
should not be applied at a greater rate
than 1875 to 270 pounds per acre.

Mothers Who Rust.

"After a woman is 80 years old she
might as we'll die" is the speech at
trlbuted to a woman who realized for
the first time that she did not have
first place In the estimation of her
children. The children have been
growing, possibly, and the mother is
where she was twenty or thirty years
ago. Mothers should try to grow along
with their children or the day will
come when the youngsters will find
them out, just as they did about Christ
mas and the fairy tales when they
were. babies.

Farm
No Grain in the Orchard.

There are many ways of caring for
an orchard. We work our land in corn
as long as possible, in order to cult.
vate the trees and keep the land clean.
This is to prevent us being troubled by
rabbits. Where there are no trees or
grass we can put the richness back into
the soil with clover. If the land is
rich this clover may be cut for hay, II
poor, 1t should be left and turned I'M
der to enrich the land as much as DOS.

grains in the orchard. Growth is the
most necessary item for the young
trees.-T. III. Todd, Missouri.

Female Fashion In Africa.

OF all the curious notions of personal
adornment INDUCED Ia by the women
of the world, none is more peculiar
than the custom of lip boring common
among some of the tribes of Africa. A
hole will be made in the upper lip and
gradually distended until the opening
can accommodate a disk one, two and
even three inches in diameter. The
size of the disk proclaims the rank of
the wearer. The lower classes insert a
stick no thicker than a match, while
the women Of higher birth frequently
stretch their lip until 1t breaks under
the strain, and the disconnected ends
have to be held up by the strings tied
20 the ears.
