OUR CORNER
AUTUMN C%HESTNUTS.

FACK FRosT's entry upon the an-
tunn scene is hailed with delight
nv every boy and girl, for with
ripening, albeit chill, finger he touches
The immature chestnut burrs and makes
them fit for gathering. one OF tne
keenest outdoor pleasures or the Iaii
season is chestnuting, and every slri
looks forward with a great zeal Oh
~pleasurable anticipation to the Gay
when they can invade the WOODS Win
bags and clubs and return nome WIN
booty for the winter freside, as wen as
inspirited by the brisk and sharp au-
tumn air. Meanwhile they may be IN
terested to learn something ABOUT
chestnuts and their culture.
The chief obstacles to chestnuts are
forest fires, insect pests, thieves n a
few species Of wild birds and mammals.
Depredations of birds and quadrupeds,
however, are not serious, and they are
readily kept in check.
Forest fires are prevented by keeping
the groves clear OF infiammable mate
rails, such as dead grass, weeds,
leaves old burrs and brush; also by
plowing or %grubbing fire roads around
and through the groves.
WatcnI1eu, SIolSuhs anu savage ooSo
are most potential factors to deal with
uxht-fngered individuals who visit the
premises to rob.
The greatest Of all hindrances, how
ever. to the success of the chestnut in
dustry are the insect enemies, chief of
which are the burr-worm, the weevil
and the cicada or seventeen-year locust.
II these pests can be successfully COM
bated. the raising of chestnuts will be-
come a good paying and easy business,
and thousands Of acres of neglected
and waste lands which have been de-
nuded of timber may be p~roftably util-
lied.

He's Always Quarreling.
Dear Margery Doom:

Dear Margery Doom.
Will you kindly give me your advice
I am a girl Of seventeen, and for some
time have been keeping company with
a young man eight years my senior. He
has always been lovely to me. but lately
he is very distant, and quarrels with
me over nothing. What would you ad-
wise me to do? 1 cannot seem to get
along with him at all any more, and II
makes me feel terrible. for l love him
dearly. SARAH.
l think I would give him a dose OF
his W medicine. The next time he
is cold to you, be colder. If he be-
comes angry, pretend to become
argrier. Make believe you do not care.
If he loves you, this will bring him to
his senses In short order. If not. you
will soon find it out, and then you must
put him out of your heart.

The New Skirts.

For the moment, LOUNGES are quite
out of fashion, at least those presenting
any fulness. On the other hand, what
is known as the fiat f%lounce, which Is
placed quite plain ON the skirt, is m
times seen. The lower edge Is generally
scalloped, and it is in this that
the lace flounce is now placed.
Tucks, however, are far more fash
ionable, either appliqued, as In a nuns
gown, or constructed in the material Of
the skirt itself.
Among colors for high-class wooden
fabrics, voiles and silks, all sorts Of
rust and copper shades are extremely
fashionable. and are expected to be
even more so later in the season. These,
together with smoke and fog gray, will
clearly take the lead. So.

tion being attached to the skirt by means of
tho belt. The blouse is tucked over the shout
ders In Gibson style, the small oversleeve being
cut In one with It. The skirt Is a pleated one
OF the latest mode. and Is a most becoming
model for a small girl. It's straight edge
