FLY KITES TO GET THE SMELLS
Bags of Bad Odors Then Opened Up for
To Rid Porkopois Of Stock Yard Scents

CHICAGO-At a mass meeting
held to protest against the odors
which emanate from the Union Stock
Yards, and which sometimes envel-
ope the whole city, Health Commits
sioner Evans said that for some time
he had been obtaining samples of the
smells by means of bags suspended
from kites foated over the stock
yards. Before prosecutions could be
begun, he said, it was necessary to
procure exact evidence as to the
sources of the odors and consequent
ly kites with open bags had been
directed over particular buildings.
"While bad smells are not neces-
sarily a detriment to health" said
Dr. Evans, they unquestionably ir-
ritate ones temper Our kites have
been directed especially over the tan

TO RESTORE GARDEN OF EDEN
Contemplated in Plan of Turkish
Reform to Make 1t Again Bios
som as the Rose.

Those who con the creation chap
ter of the Bible and those following
will remember that it is said that
"a river flowed out of Eden and
parted and became into four heads"
One of these branches of the Edenic
stream was the Euphrates. From
this the students have located Eden,
with more or less satisfaction, some
where in the Chaldean basin between
the Euphrates and the Tigris.
Interest in Eden is revived not by
the arising of new poet to catch
up the Miltonic strain, nor by a new
philosophy of contentment. The
scheme for the revival of Eden is
purely practical and material. 1t is
contemplated in the plan of Turkish
reforms, which will probably provide
for the engaging of the great expert
in dams, Sir William Wilcocks, to
cause the basin of the Euphrates to
again blossom as the rose. He will
install an advanced system of irri-
cation. He is convinced that the
old-time traditional fertility may be
restored. Nor is he apprehensive of
meeting the angel with the flaming
sword that was stationed upon the
walls to keep the first narents from,
tasting again of the forbidden fruit

CARRY OFF THEIR FARMS.
The French Tenant Takes the Top
Soil With Him When He Moves,

The modern farmer was applying
electrical massage to cart horses
sprained knee, says the Philadelphia
Bulletin. During the intervals of
rest he talked farm talk.
There are tenants" he said,
who when they move carry their
farms with them as the tortoise does
his house. These people are the
Norman French, the worlds best
farmers.
Where you or I would require
20 or 80 acres Of land to keep one
family the French farmer will keep
family on a quarter of an acre.
If he chooses to cultivate 20 or 80
acres he would become a millionaire.
His secret lies in the perfection
to which he brings his top soil
What with fertilfzing and watering
and clearing, his top soil is the black
est, finest, richest soil on earth. His
top soil is to the French farmer
what her voice is to the prima donna.
Ana when he rents he contracts
that on the termination of his lease
he may carry off eighteen inches of
the top soil with him.
when you see a French farmer
moving one small cart carries his
household goods, and in seven or
eight enormous drays his top soil

HIS MAN FRIDAY AGAIN COMMENDED

tude should be known. The man
who unhesitatingly resists tempta-

TO THE PEOPLE, WITH ADVICE
!! THAT THEY VOTE FOR HIM.

Roosevelt Says Taft Is Trust Buster
of True Type, Notwithstanding He
Has Not Busted Any Trusts
President Roosevelt has given out
a formal statement, which was called
forth by the recent exchanges be-
tween William r. Hearst and Sean
tor Foraker of Ohio. NJ. Hearst,
in public utterances, had accused the
senator of relations with the Stand
ard Oil Company inconsistent with
his duties as a senator and his atti-
tude as a representative Of repubn-
can policies and profession.
In his statement President Roose-
welt makes another appeal for the
support of Mr.. Taft, and declares
that his defeat would bring lasting
satisfaction to but one set of men,
namely to those men who, as shown
in the correspondence published by
Mr. Hearst, were behind Mr. Fora
ker, the opponent of Mr.. Taft within
his own party and who now are be-
hind Gov. Haskell and his associates,
the opponents of Mr. Taft in the op-
posite party"
Even Blames En- for This
The president cites the Brownsville
affair as a case where the agitation
was phase of the effort "by the
representative of certain law defy
ing corporations to bring discredit
Upon the administration. 1t was,
he says, in large part mot a genuine
agitation on behalf of colored men
at all, but merely one phase of the
effort by the representatives of GER
tain law defying corporations to
bring discredit upon the administra-
ton because it was seeking to cut out
the evils connected not only with the
corrupt use of wealth, but especial
ly with the corrupt alliance between
certain business men of large for
tunes and certain politicians of great
influence

They are easy to wash and re- quire no ironing In the same home cream-white madras is used for bed room window draperies because of ita good wearing qualities, It comes out of the wash with flying eolors. She trims them with ball fringe and does not have them wrung very dry, and wrung by hand, of course, as the wringer would natten the little balls. She uses small rugs all through her house, save the dining room, be- cause they can be taken outdoors ev- cry week by the one maid of the es- tablishment. Another woman saves work by having her luncheon brought to her sitting-room on a tray, and an other, belonging to family that seems doomed to perpetual mourning attire, supplies her maid with very light cotton dresses in white and black because there is already too much gloom in the house.

PACKING SUGGESTIONS

A dollars worth of tissue paper Is almost indispensable In packing a trunk.
 If tucked in the sleeves and laid between the skirts 1t will keep the gar ments fresh.
 A second essential Is to have the clothing arranged solidly Tn the trunk.
 Yet soft materials must be we'll pro- tected or this tightness will prove fatal.
 To pack to the best advantage a flat surface on which to fold garments Is needed.
 Fold skirt with the crease down the sides and then lay over to the { back seam to meet there.
 A roll of paper should be placed under each turn, and if too wide for the trunk another turn must be giv- en to each side.
 In this way the creases which mar the badly packed clothes are avoided. ! Tissue paper should be placed in the sleeves and into the body part of a blouse.
 Hats with ribbons should have the loops slightly stuffed so they will look fresh when unpacked. Hat crowns may be filled with stockings. ties or anything soft.
 The main endeayor should be to keep an even level and to pack large ! garments in the center.
 If there is no special millinery pro- vision hats should be placed on the top tray
 The brims should be placed down wards and by putting a flaw tacks .n they will keep their position.

DAY OF TWO
 COATS PASSED Tailor Made Suits Give Way to the One Piece
 Dresses.

It Is doubtful if the day will ever return when one or two coats will do all-around service for wardrobe which makes any pretentions at all to smartness. There was time when women who dressed well according to the tenets of @ large part of the com munity had @ Sunday coat and an everyday coat, and the two went re- spectiyely to mill and to meeting over any gown at all which happened to be worn under them, The tailor made coat and skirt suit with sepa- rate blouse was the most practical and economical fashion that ever struck a femninity of diverse fortune With one smart street walking suit, a more elaborate afternoon one and a variety of waists q very good showing indeed, could be made especially at the time when the style was so popular that the tailor made went to the smartest daytime functions. Indeendent spirits still cling to the style, but 1t has long set for fashion folk. It will be inter- esting to see what the fall brings out in the coat and skirt suit. As yet no one but the fashion makers in Paris whose mouths are closed as tight as the Sphnxs, know anything about 1t, and they know as little how the style which they are to present in october will be accepted.
 More one-piece gowns are in evi- dence among travellers this summer than ever before. With them are worn long pongee coats as a rule, which are severely tailored or are made smart with strappnss and col lars and cuffs of colored silk Most of these gowns have separate guimpes, which make 1t possible to keep clean yokes and sleeves at little expense of time or money A great host of fancy little coats for lingerie and silk frocks have cropped out during the last month. One is made of bands of em- broidered silk alternating with tuck ed net. The coat has a half-fltted shape which follows the lines of the figure enough to give graceful out line The sleeve is of the kimono or der cut in one with the body part The collar lapel is of silk The full jabot front is one of the finishing

REALLY NEW SKIRT

The sheath skirt. 1t would seem, is sufficiently new" But there is a skirt which is newer, says Vogue.
 The really new'' skirt, which we find in silk cachemire, in heavy crepe de chine, in thick eastern silks of all kinds, as in supple light cloths, Is made with folds dragged across the front from bust to ankles, the ten dency of the lines being to mount toward the back, perhaps crossing over obliquely there and ending under buckle on one hip, or at the shoul- der blade Fancy this in dead leaf color, meagre as to underskirt, slight ly trailing and worn with taffeta coat In light jade green, which, short waisted and tailless behind, has two long side pieces that almost reach the ankles, fringed and embroidered in soutache. There is a soft sash of black liberty satin, which Is carried across the bust under the coat, high enough behind to just show under the short coat back, and crossing there. returning to droop In front and knot at the bend of the legs

touches which have much to do with the Frenchy effect of most of the smartest models of this kind.
 Colored cloth jackets are in order with pretty morning frocks of the washable kind, They are made in the half-fitted style which Is the most used now, and often have black satin collars and cuffs as a last finish. These separate colored cloth coats sell dom take the cutaway shape so much used with silk and satin. The style is too dressy for the material. Brown hunters pink and royal blue are the colors used most for these coats. Plain brass buttons are use on them.

HANDKERCHIEFS
Monograms No Longer Con- sidered .he Strictly Cor
 rect Thing.

It was not so long ago hat women considered colored pocket handker- chiefs incorrect. Now these are wide ly used. Not only are borders of white handkerchiefs In colors, but there is wide display of colored stripes over the surface.
 The latest development IS to have a fine linen handkerchief in light color with border in white and the initials embroidered In white across the corner.
 Even when one does not care for so much color, the all-white handker- chief has an embroidered design in faint color in the corner with the initials in the center.
 The empire design Is still very much favored: Mercury wings are consider ed new and pretty and circles of solid embroidery one-sixteenth of an inch wide are used with the initials in the center.

 Those who have plain white hand kerchiefs and want some fancy work to take away with them in the sum- mer could get colored mercerized floss to use in embrodering tiny block initials across the corners.
 The long family monogram has been out of style for some time. There is no sign of its return. The letters are not interlaced any more. They are rather widely separated. They are small and done in the open blocl, shape which is easy to do and easy "a read.
 Al the pastel colors are preferred to the vivid ones. Red purple and green are avoided. Dull blue, pale pink and light violet are used instead.

NO MORE LARGE PUFFS

The hair dressers are advising their best-dressed clients to avoid the puff as they would the Merry Widow hat.
 It has had it's day. It became too common for its own welfare.
 The quarter yard of small puffs on a string pinned around the back of the head are now out of first fashion, as well as the three large puffs worn just below the crown.
 It is not amiss to make one or two soft flat puffs of your own hair in the center of the head; but 5he rows of puffs are as second class already as the pointed pompadour.
 Of course, the majority do not think so, but they will fall into the ways of the minority very soon, who have already discarded puffs for more sim pie hair-dressing.
