Japs Are Not Satisfied.

Tokio.--No official step has yet been
taken looking to a settlement of the
California situation in accordance with
the agreement reached between Presi-
dent Roosevelt and the San Francisco
authorities, but should it be effected
on that basis the government must be
prepared for violent attacks. The au.
thorities are assuming a calm and
resolute attitude, however, and 1t Is
believed that a settlement in this line
is not entirely hopeless, although it
may take some time.

to say that he was justified in both

expensive hats. One of the twain is
made in cinnamon brown satin brim,
; soft full crown in chine silk, finished
off with the chou of cinnamon satin
and the new ostrich mount. This is a
hat which can be worn with any cos
| tune and can be made in any color
desired, and made in black satin un-
derlined with velvet would be very
| striking.
The second hat shown in the illus
| tration is of an equally dainty crea-
| ton. 1t is made in a dead shade of
mauve satin underlined in velvet in a
| darker color with a charming wreath
of two shades in velvet flowers fast
ened in front with bunch of deep
rich cerise silk roses. This lovely hat
would go well with a rather colorless
gown. 1t can be made in all colors, and
would have very smart effect.
DEATH" l would cry most gladly
to the cloche hat, though 1 would by
no means Danish from recognition the
mushroom hat which was the orig
| inal germ of these modish monstrosi-
ties, which have already exceeded all
| the bounds of good taste, to say moth
| ing of common sense, upon which
should be sorry to insist as pivot
| for fashion; but, again 1 repeat, the
mushroom hats by all means.
These are made in felt or beaver,
| wreathed with autumn leaves, or
| trimmed with colored velvet choux.
| They are easily achieved at home,
these choux. Only select the colors
which contrast well, and buy three
eighths of yard of velvet on the
cross, each of three different shades,
gather them round together at the
back, place them on the hat, and in
dent them with your finger wherever
you think likely to look well. The
more carelessly this is done the bet
ter the effect.
One hat which was made after the
above directions was of dark purple,
and the three colors were peacock
blue, sage green and heliotrope. The
hat was of the mushroom shape.

ways so as to supply their own trim

The Colorado statesman., 1907-12-28

There is nothing new under
he sun. unless it is in dress,
and woman-that Is, fashionable
woman - is constantly on the
lui vive to catch the latest hints of
fashion. and to accommodate them to
her peculiar needs and her pocketbook.
Perhaps the newest novelty for the
winter season is the Beau Brummer'
tie. 1t was first introduced across the
water. and was instantly taken into
feminire and fashionable favor with
an enthusiasm easily to be understood
and certain to be shared when once
you see for yourself just how convent
ent and how charming it is. So as such
knowledge will increase both your
comfort and your smartness this win
ter we show above the faithful por-
trait of the new tie for all to study
and admire, and may tell you that its
fastening is most simply and success
fully effected by the mere passing of
one end through loop of the fur,
while by the same means 1t can be ad-
justed to fit the neck as closely and
costly as you will. 1t is indeed a won
will be most welcome addition to
the collarless coats which continue su-
preme in fashions favor. while then
according to your mood of the moment
or the style of your accompanying
headgear you can either let its ends
be piquantly poised at one side or
more demurely folded in front, the
charm of variety being thereby added
to its account.
The more "dressy" taiIor-made coats
are for the most part of half-length or
to the ankles. Very few short ones are
seen in cloth or serge. though there
are exceptions made in fur sacques
and boleros; in fact. at any minute
| the little sacque coats may be re-
vided, but for the moment let us con.
tent ourselves with the long graceful
semi-fitting coats which are so becom.

In our illustration we show one OF
the latest tailor-mades. As can be
The Colorado statesman., 1907-12-28

readily seen it is of the most graceful
design of the very latest and most
fashion-favored coat and skirt cos
tune. 1t is made up in fine face cloth,
which comes in all the newest shad-
ings, and is finished in a most effective
exceeding smartness is too obvious to
need comment, but the long. graceful
lines of the coat and the full skirt
will be found very becoming to most
figures.

parent from the proceedings. The
old hen flew onto the fence under a
projecting branch, and called encour-
agingly to the little ones below. Then
one at a time they huttereed up be-
side her, sitting in row on the top
board, but this did not suit Mother
Turkey. She had herself flown to the
top Of post, and in unmistakab1e
turkey language told them that
board was not fit roost. There was
a tWltterlng among the babies, with
an occasional note from the mother,
then the poult nearest her flew on
her back, walked up her neck, bal
ancing himself with his wings a sec
ond, and from there he flew to the
projecting limb above, from which he
cheeped an invitation to his brothers
and sisters to do as he had done.
One after another the poults flew onto
the hen and thence to the limb. The
old mother craned her neck to look
in the grass below, and the fence at
each side. When satisfied that all her
family were safely sheltered in the
tree, she spread her wings and joined
them. Surely turkey shows intelli-
gence ofAno mean order.

Experiment that Benefits Others.

In striking contrast with the attl-
tude Of those who try to sell as their
discoveries processes, ideas or recipes
which are substantially matters Of
common knowledge, is the position
taken by most pouHrymen in regard
to things they have found out which
may benefit others. Nearly all such
discoveries and methods are given to
the public promptly and without sug
gestion of either reward or special
credit The spirit which pervades
contributions to poultry literature is
a spirit of willing helpfullness. We
say this, though we know we'll that in
much Of our current poultry litera
ture there is also plain effort to get
some personal profit or credit in con-
nection with the exploitation of things
or ideas of general benefit.
The difference between the man
who works some advertising Of him
SELF his stock or his goods into a
contribution to a poultry journal, and
the one who sells sight unseen" as
the boys used to trade jack knives, is
that in the first case the reader is
openly given certain information
which may be of value to him, and
is free to take it and to reject the
solicitation to trade which may be
delicately worked in with it. while in
the second case the reader of an adj
vertisement is asked to pay in ad-
vance relatively high price for in
formation of the value Of which he
knows Nottingham Poultry.

Why English Fowls Grow Big.

One firm announcing the arrival of
consignment of Orpington cockerels
from England says: "They are, of
course, larger than any grown in this
country" We once asked a promi-
nent judge why it is that the English
fanciers take our American Wyan-
dottes and Rocks and increase their
size materially, says the American
Poultry Journal. He replied "No
warm nights over there. Chicks not
kept in small brood coops as they are
here. Given an abundance of fresh
air all the time. Made to rustic in
the meadows and orchards Fed but
little corn, their diet consisting al
most entirely of foods which produce
bone and muscle, such as oats, etc.

Poultry Stealing Should be a Felony.


We do not know what the law Of
this state is in regard to stealing
chickens, but we certainly agree with
correspondent, of an exchange that
it should be a felony. If there is any
thing which is trying to the patience it
is to raise some choice chickens al
most to the laying age and then wake
up some morning to find them stolen.
They are property and we see no
reason why the stealing of them
should not be punished as severely
as any other theft If such is not the
law at this time, we hope that the
coming session of our legislature will
remedy the defect.
