HOW HE Woos.

Yes. 1t is true. I've been in love before.
How many girls? Oh, forget-a score,
Perhaps. But when you came upon the
scene,
knew they were but landmarks to a
Queen
But maids of honor, who had played
their part
kingdom small, but blest IL one so fair
Enthroned in state might reign forever
there!
Too small realm, the life I have to
live,
But, Sovereign Liege! IT'S all I have
to give!
Your kingdom now lovely land appears,
Warmed by your smiles and blighted by
your tears;
Bounded by Heaven, beneath it and
above,
Its coin is kisses, and It's law is love.
viii you reign there? None may your
rule dispute
It is a monarchy, and absolute.
Your subjects are my thoughts; none are
And none more loyal than my thoughts,
to you.
If they do wrong (for thoughts will some
times ERR,
Your frown shall be their executioner.
Reign then supreme, in more than royal
state,
And know that, should you ever abdi-
cate,
The crown will rest upon no others
head
When the queen leaves, the kingdom will
be dead!
C"Geev says the guy who springs this
little rhyme,
THAT dope works yet! 1t brings 'em,
every time!)

now having such well-deserved run
Of popularity. AS very few women,
however, have been endowed by ma
ture with naturally curly locks, and
1t is useless to arrange these chignons
with artificially curled hair, which
would soon become disordered in
heated bathrooms, the only way to
achieve a successful result is to go to
firm of expert coiffeurs and invest in
an artistic chignon, which can be at
tached in a moment when the front
hair has been becomingly arranged. A
colored ribbon to match the evening
toilette, band of gold or silver tinsel
gauze, or some other appropriate hair
ornament can then be added, and the
picturesque couture is made complete.
Directoire clusters of curls in various
shapes and sizes can be supplied in
all ordinary shades, and they are not
by any means an expensive luxury.
The front of the couture can be ar
ranged with toupee, semi-trans-
formation, or complete transforma-
ton, which will entirely cover the
head, according to whether the lady's
natural chevelure needs a small or
large addition of naturally wavy hair,
and these range from ten dollars up
wards, according to the size and tint
required
Ladies' who are going on country
house visits should lay in supply of
hair powder, dry shampoo, which
makes the hair beautifully bright and
fluffy without washing it, and 'obvi-
ates the risks of chills in cold weather.
The absence of any set ondules or
inartistic coiffurial precision is i'm
mediately apparent, while one also
realizes the art underlying the neglige
appearance that must perforce be
only seeming. This is particularly
marked, the actual dressing of long,
lightly adjusted curls or poufs being
worked to the usual outstanding d.
minishing center in a downward direc-
ton. whereas in other cases the line
is kept at a graceful level.
The correct droop of the toupee is
quite fat and unstudied, with a ten
dency to droop over the one side, the
dressing, being destined for evening
wear, having the sides decidedly
more bouffant than is de rigueur dur
ing the day, while an ornament Sc
lected for the relief of supremely
artistic head at the base comprises a
great motif of gold arranged in hier-
oglyphic form, centered by a cabochon
stone. amethyst, topaz, tourmaline
and the like, with drops of pearls. This

WHAT A FORMER OREGON
FARMER THINKS OF WEST
ERN CANADA.

Albert Nelson left Benton Co, Ore
gon, In Sept, 1904, for the great
Canadian prairies. To quote from his
letter: II was greatly surprised to
find such an immense stretch Of rich
virgin prairie still almost unoccupied
In the very heart OF North, America
The splendid crops of oats, wheat, bar
ley, potatoes and hay beheld in the
settlements made me very eager for o
piece of this rich soil. and soon To-
Gated In the Goose Lake country. We
have here great stretch of the rich,
deep clay loan of the Saskatchewan

particularly well adapted for the re-
tention of moisture and production OF
the bright No. hard wheat and
great crops OF oats. barley. flax and POI
tatoes. ! had 60 bushels of oats.
weighing AL Id. to the bushel, per
acre. Some of my neighbors had still
greater yields. Wheat yielded from 90
to 30 bushels per acre. We have all
done well here, and l could name
many Americans who came here with
means to go ahead, who have done
big already. For homesteads one has
to go further west, but the best prai-
RE can be bought here for from $1,000
to $1,000 per acre. The climate is
dry and healthy. This is the regular
Saskatchewan fall weather - frosty
nights, and bright, sunny days--ideal
for threshing and hauling out OF
wheat. The trails are dusty. as thou
sands of wheat teams are moving
towards the elevators.
"The sight OF Il makes one stop and
wonder what II will be in few years
when the immense prairies get under
cultivation. Heavy snowfall Is the
exception here, Snow generally falls
in December and goes off In March.
It sometimes gets very cold, but the
Saskatchewan farmer does not fear
the cold. Winter is his season of
rest. The first or second crop he
builds n comfortable house for HIM
self, and warm stables for his horses.
He need not. like some. be poking
about In the mud all winter attending
a few beasts for livelihood"

The "obIonan Woman

The decision has been arrived at
among certain makers of high-class
ready-to-wear suits and dresses that
"the oblong woman" is to continue
and hipless dress forms will be the
feature of future wearing apparel of
this class. Among individual makers
however, practically nothing but the
princess dress obtains, but 1t is so
varied that each one seems to be in
class by itself.
Some are SO severely simple that
they really take the place of the
tailored suit. Many are "oblong," but
many, too, are fitted to the figure quite
to the hip line. have seen one or
two which were fitted to and CIT off at
this line. the skirt below being added

the body portion is made with plaits,

they fall free.-Harper's Bazaar.

EASY TO REMODEL SLEEVES.
Task Comparatively Simple II These
Directions Are Followed.

To remodel last seasons sleeves for

frequently been in other fashion pc
RODS. Three new sleeves there are
that have grown right out of last
years sleeves. If they were long and
fairly full cut a long leg-o-mutton
model, open down the top of the out
side arm; face both of the edges and
decorate them with rows of buttons;
under this opening Insert long strip
of tucked chiffon cloth to match the
yoke.
Now, If 1t is necessary to piece your
goods, do so without fear, for you
can conceal the piecing in the folds of
a rather closely fitted mousquetaire
sleeve, which is a very acceptable
model right now. Many of them have
a frill down the outside. When the
material is scant, the fullness is
pushed part way up the arm, and the
