THE AGE OF e

No one likes to be deceived or
hoodwinked into buying something he
feels sure is being misrepresented to
him. While this is true in all cases
1t is particularly SO in live stock de-
tails. Every experienced sheep
man is able to tell the ages Of his
sheep by their teeth and those who
intend to go into the business should
know for their own protection.
Until sheep are four years old their
ages may be accurately determined
by the size Of their front teeth.
Lambs have small straight teeth of
almost equal size, with spaces be-
tween them. At from fifteen to eigh-
teen months of age the first pair of
incisors appear in the center. At
from twenty-one to twenty-four
months of age, the next pair of per.
manent teeth appear, n on each
side of the yearling teeth. The third
pair come at from thirty to thirty
three months and at from thirty.
eight to forty-two months they have a
full mouth Or eight permanent
front teeth

because she fretted so over the disa-
greeable breath of a man who sat

marking on the features of the play
she devoted her entire attention be-
tween the acts to setting forth the diff
ferent ways in which the obnoxious
breath annoyed her. Another girl
once took away the pleasure of a
trolley ride because I was unable to
secure the coveted front seat Still
another of the fussy type made life
miserable for every partner she had
at dance because some previous
clumsy partner had stepped on her

natural for her to mention the acct

reason why she should have scolded
about it all the evening. Why didn't
she make the best of it?'

Boots and lII-shaped Feet.

A boot authority declares that a
woman with big, shapeless feet can
only afford to wear a laced boot, and
never low shoe of any kind.
Buttoned boots are not to be recon-
mended, pretty foot suffering con-
siderably in these.
No matter how firm the buttons,
they give" to the motions of the
feet, and if worn regularly entirely
ruin a pretty ankle. Laced boots, on
the other hand, tend greatly toward
the correction Of any faults a foot
may possess.
Buttoned boots encourage the
spreading out and unnatural devel-
opment of good shaped foot and are
the cause of many weak ankle.

Wedding Expenses.

All wedding expenses are assumed
by the brides family Wedding day,
church, clergyman and all details are
Of the brides choosing.
Since the bride becomes his wife
after the ceremony, the bridegroom
is privileged to fee the clergyman,
sexton and organist. He also hires
the carriage in which he and his wife
leave the church.
The bride usually gives about week
before the wedding a dinner or lunch
con, to which the groom, best man
and ushers are sometimes invited.
The duties of the best man are to
see that the bridal couple arrive pune
tually at the church, to take charge of
the ring and to perform all other lit
tie commissions incident to the cere-
mony. He makes all arrangements
for the wedding trip and sees that the
happy couple are safely started on

Ba nbaric JeWeIry.


There is a great craze just now for
odd and batbaric jewelry. One does
not need diamonds to be distinctively
in style. A nouveau art necklace, a
gold chain studded with uncut tur-
quoise or sapphire stones, a matrix
pin-any one of these will stamp the
wearer as decidedly up to date. Brace
let's, charms and lockets of
jade the very popular. Coral, either
rough or in polished bead form, is
much worn. Semi-precious stones are
seen to great extent, topaz being
prominent among them. Oriental jew
elry in the shape of girdles and neck
laces is beautiful, but not every wo-
man can wear it. A lovely necklace
Of uncut turquoise has gold bead be-
tween every two blue stones, and an
other pretty combination in pink coral
alternating with white sapphires. One
beautiful and elaborate necklace seen
recently was made of two rows Of
seed pearls, with pendant gems hang
ing at intervals all the way around.
In the centre, forming pendant, was
quantity shaped, rather large ba-
rogue pearl, and among the other
stones were sapphires, amethysts, to-
PAGES and moonstones. This neck
lace was short and fitted the neck.

The Saving Women.

The Saving Women.
If we are to believe the old prov
erb which says that savings good
earning" then the earning capacity
Of women always has been greater
than that Of men.
Oh, the saving women Of this
world! The women who sit up late
making over last seasons clothes to
save buying new ones; the women
who stealthily tiptoe across the floor.
to turn down the gas when papa dozes
over his newspaper; the women who
darn huge holes in basketfuls Of
stockings; the women who have
cracked teapot or old pocketbook into
which they drop stray dimes and quar-
tiers, taking the accumulation to the
savings bank with guilty secrecy; the
women who wash out pieces Of carpet
to make them appear fresh and new,
who turn the trimmings on their hats
and clean their gloves with gasoline,
and cut down the clothes Of Willie,
aged IA, to At Jimmie, aged 10. Bless
them, every one!
There is another sort Of saving
which might properly be termed
boarding. 1t consists in laying down
rugs to prevent the nap Of the car
pet from wearing, in putting paper
covers on prettily bound books, in
locking up the little girls French doll.

HAS LONESOME TASK

OAKLAND. March 25.-After a lull
through several meetings OF the Board
Of Supervisors the former weekly con-
test between Supervisor Harrison d.
Rowe on the one side and his fellow
members OF the board on the other
was resumed today. The point Of diff
ference at this mornings session was
a question whether the board should
provide for road sprinkling and the
installation of electric lights in out
side districts adjacent to the cities OF
Oakland, Berkeley and Alameda
Supervisor Rowe took the stand that
the time had come for a halt in the
matter OF expenditures on road light
ing, sprinkling. bridge and culvert
building and Health Department ex-
penditures, which. he said, were be-
the cities of Oakland Alameda and
Berkeley had contributed from 70 to
so per cent Of the revenue to the
county and received nothing In return.
His argument was that the county out
side of these cities was being provided
for too literally in view of the exist
ing conditions. He maintained that
the general fund of the county should
not be drawn upon for road lighting
trict taxes should pay for that.
Supervisors Horner and Bridge op-
posed Rowe in debate. They insisted
that money spent on the roads was OF
benefit to the cities in that good roads
enabled farmers and suburban resi-
dents generally to reach the cities
easily.
Supervisor Rowe retorted that $780,
600 had been appropriated from the
general fund for a road OF doubtful
utility and. anyway. he did not expect
Horner and Bridge to be with him, as
they represented outside districts. His
demand was that the Supervisors from
city districts should take a stand and
stop appropriating large sums for road
work that were a drain upon the funds
into which the bulk of the money was
poured by the cities.
Resolutions calling for bids for the
continuance of electric lighting on the
main county roads for two years and
providing for additional lights were
adopted, Rowe being the solitary mega
tive.

.G|LLETT's SIGNATURE
ON ANTITRUST BILL

SACRAMENTO, March 25.-From the
mass Of proposed legislation introduced
at the late session of the Legislature.
539 Of the measures have been sifted

laws. Six of these became laws

others by reason Of the Governors sig

Among the bills that were signed was
that known as the Cartwright anti

by the fruit growers of the southland,
who feared that 1t would interfere with
their mutual company for the market-
ing Of their products. The Governor
became convinced that their interests
lay outside of the provisions of this
act and that they were not affected. He
said:
