place of the waist was marked by the
pointed waist-band of velvet, much
braided with a fine old-fashioned mar
row silk braid in the same color; but
the waist-band narrowed at each side,
and rose high at the back, where the
fulness of the skirt flowed out in
graceful folds, and where the waist
band disappeared under the crossed
points of the pelerine, fastened by big
velvet buttons. These shaped cape or
pelerine folds were in cloth, with a
line of braid between, they were fin
ished in front with turned-back tabs
fastened by velvet buttons, and they
were cut very low both in front and
behind to show a waistcoat of the

JEWS ARE ACQUIRING LAND.
In Europe They Hold 248 Times as
Much as They Did 40 Years Ago.

The anti-Jew faction in Russia de-
clares that even with the present re-
strictions the Jews have managed to
acquire large portion of land, for
which the following figures are quoted
in the Jewish magazine, the Menorah:
within the Pale the real estate OF
the Jews advanced from 10000 dessia-
tins in 1860 to 14S,0OO in 1870, 10000
in 1880, 537, 900 in 1890, and to 1885,
900 in 1900.
In the kingdom of Poland the Jews
held $4,000 dessiatins in 1860, $4,000
in 1870, 100000 in 1880, 537, 900 in 1890,
and 1926, 900 in 1900.
I'm European Russia outside the
Pale Jewish landholding is said to
have increased 24S times in 40 years
in the following proportion: In 1860,
5000 dessiatins; in 1870, $4,000 dessia-
tins; in 1880, $4,000 dessiatins; in
1890, 100000 dessiatins, and in 1900,
$4,000 dessiatins."
According to these statistics the
total holdings of the Jews throughout
the Russian empire, which only
amounted to 10000 dessiatins in 1860,
reached in 1900 the high figure of g..
381,O57 dessiatins, out of which the
Jews own as their property 1,445,000
dessiatins, while the remaining $4,000
dessiatins are rented by them as ten
ants.

The battle of the dressmakers over
the rival merits of the empire, the
Directoire, or the princess styles has
resulted, as such battles often do, in
each army withdrawing within it's
borders, where it reigns supreme and
follows it's own bent. The princess
robe has still many followers, but it
cannot be denied that, even on an
impecable figure and cut by master
hand, the princess robe has a hard,
stiff effect that is displeasing to an
aesthetic eye. Far more graceful are
the long, sweeping lines of the modi-
fed empire or directoire styles which,
while defining the beauty of the fig
ure, yet leave something to the i'm.
agination, which is the secret of sue
cess in every art.
A description of one of these
gowns seen displayed in one of the
principal stores is worthy of a place
here. The material of the dress was
of very fine drape souple, or satin
cloth, in the lovely mauve shade
known as Elephant" grey, which is
SO much to the fore this season for
those who appreciate quiet tones. The
skirt was quite plain except for a
band Of cloth above the hem, which
was cut into mitred tabs, piped with
elephant grey velvet, each tab being

THE TRUE GOLDEN AGE

tial intelligence, always looking for
new truth and always abiding by the
truth already found; their instinct
for beauty was too keen and too great
to suffer either safety or perversion;
and their fund of love too profound
to be depleted. If natural grief came
to them or they were overtaken in
some irrational disaster, they bowed
before the wind Of destiny and sor-
roWed nightly, as great hearts must,
but came up again out Of the dust,
plant and undestroyed; mistaken in
faith as before and lovelfer than ever
in the gentleness of their regard.
You could not guess their years, you
could only say they seemed to live
by some perennial charm in a state
where all evil was 1ncongruous and
decrepitude could never come. And
with all their maturity of mind, their
magnificent qualities of strength and
sympathy, there was always about
them touch Of the child, breath of
perpetual innocence and wonder, as
if they might be immortals in dis
guise or wanderers from the fabulous
Age of Gold.-Bliss Carman, in the

tratiOn we show one specially de-

all the freedom of movement which
is so necessary during the hair brush
ing process. One such garment might
be made of pale pink zenana, with

second could be made of viyella,

In the matter of couture, the heads
of the fashionable women are still
running over with curls, real or arti-
fetal. AS to which they are seems
of little consequence, for every head
is piled with curls in more or less un-

logical; but what is logic in the face
of fashion?

sack, into which the arms, bare save
for their gloves, can be easily thrust
up to the elbow; while owing to the
same softness Of make, if the full size
| Of the muff is not required, it brushes
or wrinkles up on the arm to the de-
sired dimensions. Tails are placed on
muffs as trimming when the same
decoration is used on the collar that
the muff will accompany. The har
monious blending of furs and laces is
also most fashionable. It is becoming
to the last degree, and no better way
of displaying a fine bit of old rose OF
Brussels point can be found than to
set it at the throat of a seal, sable
or chinchilla cape; while correspond

by distress. unarrested by any calami-

SCIENCE OF MILKING CLEAN.
What Prof. j. L. Hills, of Vermont Elk.
pertinent Station, Has to Say.

1t is we'll known that the average
mixer gets less milk than he who
does thorough job, that incomplete
milking means not only direct but in
direct loss, not only an immediate
lessening of the fat yield, but tends
toward drying the COW. A Danish
scientist has recently developed spe-
cial system of udder manipulation.
sort Of massage of the mammary
gland, as it were, which it is claimed
augments the flow. The Hegelund
method, as it is called, involves three
manipulations, each thrice repeated or
until no more milk is obtained. First,
the pressure of tie quarter on each
side against eacll .ther thHe: repeat
ed, followed by removal Of the milk;
second, the pressure of the glands to-
gether on each side, the fore quarter
being first manipulated and then the
headquarters, followed by removal Of
the milk; and third, the fore quarters
are pressed between hand and body,
| the hands holding the teats loosely,
then the hind quarters also, followed
by milking.
Trials of the scheme made at the
! Wisconsin and New York stations at.
| forded a daily average increase per
| cow of pound of milk and two
| ounces of butter. The after milk was
| very rich in fat, testing above ten
per cent. This after milking takes
| not to exceed five minutes time,
| often only two or three minutes. The
two ounces of butter may be held at
| low estimate to be worth two cents.
| This would be fair pay for five min
utes' work, "a cents an hour, and the
skim milk thrown in. Not only is
more milk and butter made, but the
| secretion is stimulated and the lac
tation period prolonged. 1t may be
| remarked, however, that the differ.
| ence in milk and butter yields be-
tween this method and careful strip.
ping are not great. This Danish
! method emphasizes more perhaps
than has hitherto been done, the act
ual and potential losses due to incom-
| plete milking.

there is not the slightest danger of

And even should the kiss be on the

For the Economical Woman of Fashion

The first thing to attend to in pre-
pairing the winter wardrobe is the
cleaning and freshening of the dresses
of last winter that were judged good
enough to pack away in the spring,
and the dyeing of the light gowns that
have faded with the past summers
sun. Fashion changes so quickly that
it is more economical to have light
frocks turned into a color suitable
for wearing out in winter than to lay
