SASH PLAYS AN
IMPORTANT ROLE
Various Uses DeCreed by
Fashion.

New York, July 22.-Not within our
day has the sash played so important
role in the fashion comedy as is
accorded to it this summer. This
statement may, however be mislead-
ing to many woman whose idea of
a sash is limited to the infantile
ribbon drawn round the waist! tied
in a bow at the back and falling in
long ends over the skirt-the sash
of ingenious youth and ordinary
tradition.
The sash of the 1908 Parisinne is
not the blue ribbon worn with mus
Inns by the heroines of Miss Austen.
1t is a thing far more subtle, more
complicated more sophisticated a
thing in fact so sophisticated at
times that mere demonstration of
its possibilities would plunge an
Austen heroine in a paroxysm OF her
chronic hysteria.
The fashionable sash or scarf Cir
die is not of necessity a thing To Of
fend even the most. prudfsh. In
many of its phases it is an innocuous
as the old-time sash, although us
ually more graceful. Every Paris
ienne of slender waist and hips is
wearing such girdles successfully
and multitude not blessed with the
attribute of slenderness are never
theless adopting the sash cult So
far the fad appears to have made but
little impression, upon the general
public on this side of the Atlantic,
and the women who wear imported
frocks or have their clothes made by
very smart makers are the ones
who are exploiting the sash.

There is more Catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local dis
ase and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven cataTrh
to be constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional
tratment Halls Catarrh Cure, man
ufactured by F. j. Cheney & Co., Tose-
do, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken in
ternally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. It acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dol
lars for any case it fails to cure. Send
for circulars and testimonials.

Black Liberty Much Used

Black liberty is more often used
for the draped girdle than any other
material, though the soft satins and
silks in color are also much used, and,
of course, delicate colors or vivid
colors preferred to the somber hues
for the tanagra and classic scarf
arrangements. And, by the way, gen
uine directoire and empire scarfs
of Indian cashmere are used, as well
as the soft silks, for these swathtng,
tightly draped scarfs, enveloping the
greater part of the figure. When
it is noted that these scarfs are as-
ually fastened by brooches and mast
be readjusted on each removal, one
may gain some idea of the effort,
patience, and art which the fashion
able woman puts into her toilet. 1t
goes without saying that the original
arrangement is designed and executed
by one of the artist dressmakers, and
the Wearer of the creation is forced
to make a careful study of the ar
rangement, so that, with the assist
ance of clever maid. she can du-
plicate it later

Farmers Know a Few Things.
(Boston Traveler.)


The scientific department of the ma
tional government are no doubt do
ing splendid work in helping formers
to get from the soil full product,
but there is such a thing as depend
ing too much on science, to the neg
lect of practical experience.
This spring the asparagus farms in
New Jersey were attacked by a par
asite called the rust" The Depart
ment of Agriculture Immediately sent
its scientists to the spot and many
thousands of dollars were spent with
out avail in the effort to find some
thing that would save the crop One
day farmer accidently left open the
door of his poultry yard, the chickens
got into the asparagus beds and be-
gan eating with evident relish the
rust" which science could not sub
due, and thus this problem was
solved. A housewife in one of the
Boston suburbs was reading about
this discovery when her vegetable
man, keen and well-read yankee
farmer, appeared at the door. "Have
you read this, Mr.. L." she asked,
showing the publication. YES, he
said, handing it back with a smile.
Il see they spent $4,000 to find out
that chickens keep the rust out of
sparagus If they had come to me
| would have told them that for moth
ing, for | have been doing that on my
farm for twenty years"
Reading the Agricultural Depart
ment bulletins one could readily sup
pose that the currant bugs, the scale
antracnose on blackberries, the
blood-root on cabbages and the scale
and moths and other insects on fruit
trees, are new discoveries. They have
been known and fought for genera
lions by farmers with more or less
success. The farmer may not always
know the scientific why of the Latin
terms for the remidies, but he has
knowledge which came down to him
from his father, which might help the
young fellows from the colleges if
they would only give the farmer cred
it for knowing something of his own
game The scientific men of the gov
eminent are fully posted on the art Of
advertising. Even the farmers, until
they are disillusionized, are frequently
fooled by a Latin term into the belief
that something he learned from his
father, who in turn got it from his
father, is a startling discovery by
the Agricultural Department.

Fits DirectOire Fad

Often the scarf girdle is worn over
a modish coat, the arrangement be-
ing usually adjusted only a little
below the bust.
Or, again, the sash may belong
with the waistcoat, finishing the bot
tom of this chic accessory, knotted
at the left front and falling in long
fringed ends from under the coat.
There are pretty wide draped CIR
dies too which do not have the
scarf ends, although the lattre are
newer, and to bear the stamp of the
season these simpler girdles must
have some special association with
the lines of a modish coat or waist
coat
Where a directoire coat cuts wide
ly away at the bust line in front a
good effect is sometimes secured by a
wide soft girdle finishing in 'front.' by
a wide fat rectangle buckle.
