Nest Boxes.

There should be several nest boxes
provided for each pen. to avoid hens
crowding into one nest and breaking
eggs. Boxes should be eighteen
inches square and ten to twelve inches
deep, supplied with clean nest ma
terial, and a few moth balls kept in
them. Across middle of pens boards
should be placed to the height Of if
teen inches, and to the front, litter
placed to scatter small grain to in
duce plenty of exercise. Shucks and
a little fodder make the best litter,
as fowls eat the fodder il not pro-
vided plenty of green food, and the
shucks do not crumble so much like
straw or hay, and can be thrown to
one side when the pen is cleaned, and
then used again.-Progressive Far

"a significant development Is the

Greater interest and larger volume

the market as a whole still continues
to be somewhat uneven. There Is an

stocks are said to be materially de-

Demand as whole shows an I'M

and easily laundered. The front and
back panels are cut In one piece each,

the dress can be cut high and finished
with standing collar, and the sleeves
can be extended to the wrists. In the
illustration rose colored linen is en-
broidered with white, and colored
linens so treated are essentially smart
this season.
The dress Is made with front and
back panels, the side portions of the
body and the skirt, which are pleated
and jointed to the body and to the
front and back panels below the belt.
The sleeves are just comfortably full,
and whatever their length are gath

Alexandra's Favorite Room.

Queen Alexandra's favorite room is
her boudoir at Sandringham. There
she follows her own tastes without
court dictation, and she affectionately
talks of her boudoir as "home." The
walls are in apple green and white,
and the furniture is of the Marie An
toinette style. There is bric-a-brac col
lected by the Queen herself from all
corners Of Europe. Everything in the
room is of her personal selection She
passes most of her leisure time there,
usually alone or with her friend and
confidante, Chan lotte Knollys. Tea
is always served at o'clock in the
boudoir, the Queen herself pouring
out the tea for her women guests

The flower rosette is popular.
Lace heads the list for the mantelet.
Jet and amber are increasing in
favor.
The long drop is the favorite type Of
earring.
Frequently panels are finished with
knotted fringe.
Gowns are elaborate, but never for

Broche fabrics will be much worn in
the near future.
Poppies of unusual size are seen on
some Of the hats.
In yokes the sun-ray pleatings are
the thing just now.
Jet bracelets seemingly cannot be
toe wide nor too heavy.
For run-around frocks nothing is
more popular than serge.
The wrinkled riding boot is more
used than the plaih one.
Very many gowns have touches of
hand embroidery on them.
Turquoise sometimes Books remark
ably well with silver hair.
Side combs with silver tops are
most effective with gray hair.
One of the newest things in smart
footwear is the empire pump.

Study This Useful Art.

Not only does an American woman
spend as much time and care over the
etceteras of her costume as French
woman, but she learns how to dress
as she might learn how to typewrite,
She takes lessons in hair-dressins
and hat-trimming, to say nothing OF
dressmaking; she studies color and
form. Even when she is rich enough
to have a good maid she learns these
things, for she knows that to direct a
business one must be acquainted with
its details.

ary means to expect great results
from dressmakers If she herself take
no interest in Observation-Disclosures
