ShawIs Coming Back.

1t is probable that the beautiful old
crepe shawls of thick white, gold or
rose silk which were shipped from
Canton in the days of our great
grandmothers will soon be unpacked
from the paper wrappings in which
they have lain so long
These finely embroidered squares,
with their handsome knotted fringes
sometimes half yard long, are being
used in Paris for the new swathed
gowns and loose draperies.
The once necessary Paisley shawl,
or that of Indian make, beloved of
Queen Victoria and SO often given by
her as wedding gift, is not likely
to share the popularity of the silken
square. It's make is much too thick
and heavy and the coloring does not
lend itself to the present mode. The
pitfalls of artistic dressing are many,
and because one mode of period is
useful it does not follow that others
are really acceptable.

sible little affair for evening wear is
as light as an equal bulk of down, and
as soft and protecting as a caress.
The new devices for fastening on
hats help out immensely where hat
must be worn. They have no other
name than hat-fasteners. They fas-
ten the hat more securely than pins.
and are steel hair pins in reality,
fastened in the head size of the hat
by a patent pin. A barb or small dia-
mond-shaped finish at the points pre-
vents them from slipping out. AS
nothing in the world can so finish and
give character to costume as an
elegant hat, this device for keeping
hats in place is boon to the wearers
of picturesque millinery. Besides they
save "jabbing" the hat by the ordin-
airy pin point repeatedly, which dis
figures and ultimately wears out the
fabric of which it is made.
There are innumerable pretty little
couture decorations, which are worn
with the new couture, but there are
a long story in themselves. They are
wonderful in helping out and adding
to the finish of the toilette.

(BY z. p. METCALFl

Anyone walking through a tobacco
field, if he is at all observing, cannot
fail to have impressed upon his mind
the enormous loss occasioned every
year by insects. Hardly leaf can
be found which is not injured in some
way by insect pests. Either the leaf
is punctured by the flea bug or large,
Irregular holes are eaten through the
leaf by horn worms or the whole top
has been shattered by bud worms.
True, much of the injury is so slight
that it has no effect whatsoever upon
the price of the leaf tobacco. but
much of the tobacco which ought to
sell for first-class wrappers sell for
a lower grade because of blemishes
due to insects. A conservative tobac-
co farmer estimates that from 80 to
so per cent. of the money value of his

problem of keeping a hat on, or keep

DecolIete Gown Finish.

One of the prettiest ideas In a finish
for the top of decollete gown is a
narrow band of fur sewed to the edge
of the bodice and outlining a full
tucker of tulle. The style will be gen.

gowns developed from every kind of
fabric, from chiffon to chiffon cloth,
and may be adopted by either maid or
matron with equally good results.

structive work of insects. The larger
part of this injury is. however, pre-
ventable IL the farmer will only en-
ploy the proper methods.
Commencing with the sowing or
seeds in the spring. successive waves
of insects pass over the seed bed and
over the field of growing tobacco. The
plants that are left for seed have their
pods devoured by insects and the
suckers which grow up in the field
after the tobacco is harvested are
riddled by insects, the work Of which
is cut short only when the plants are
killed by frost.
Leaves are of course the most i'm
portant part of the tobacco plant and
insects do the most real damage to
the leaves. The aim of the tobacco
farmer Is to grow good, first-class
wrappers, as this grade of tobacco
brings the best price; but tobacco
riddled by flea bugs or with large
holes chewed into 1t by bud worms or
horn worms must always be classed
with lower and cheaper grades. The
number of insects injuring the tobsc-
co leaf Is large compared with the
numbers that injure other parts of the
tobacco plant. The injury caused to
leaves by insects Is largely due to
the fact that these insects are chew
ing insects and eat holes directly
through the leaf. The size of these

grow much faster If protected in this
way from the cold northern winds
and in this way the plants will, to a
certain extent outgrow the attack of
insects in the beds. To this end every
care should be taken to see that the
bed is well drained, that the soil is
full of humus and fertility and that

are to a great extent resistant to in
sects. A good stand of thrifty plants
is such an essential thing to the grow
ing of a good tobacco crop that no
amount of labor should be spared in

tive in the seedbed are usually easily
controlled by spraying. A great deal
of spraying may be done on the seed
beds at comparatively small cost, for

the minute holes made by flea bugs
to the almost complete destruction of
the leaf by full-grown horn worms.
Bud worms riddle the leaves before
they have completely unfolded from

upon Mrs. Pauline Russelle. who was

the money sorely. She had been out
of work and there were two children
down in Virginia to take care of as
well as herself. Huber, the museum
man. had promised her a three-week
engagement beginning January II.
Her leopards were Gagged on the top
floor of Huber's, and she had been
training them there for three months,
teaching them all the parlor tricks
that can be driven into leopard's
skull The three were young and alb.

on their bellies.
She dashed Clayton with the whip
until he ran round and round the cage,
whining with rage and fear. She
forced him into the corner nearest the
platform to which she meant to make
him jump, and cut him again with the
whip He took the jump, landed on
the platform, caught his balance and
snarled down on her.
Something caused Mrs. Russelle to
lose her nerve as the leopard gath
cred himself together. She ducked her
head, turned half way toward the
door of the cage, and cried TO Hen
erickson to hand her the iron spear.
That instant Clayton shot off his
perch. straight for her head. She
tried to throw herself out of his way,
but q forepaw clawed her head as she
lodged and the force of the blow sent
her to the floor of the cage. The leop-
ard was on top of her in FASH plant

catching her threat in his teeth.
Frenchy ran screaming out of the
room. Hendrickson fred his revolver
but the animal was facing the other
way and the blanks did no good. Then
he caught up the pointed rod and
drove it into Clayton's side again and
again.
The animal released Mrs. Russelle
and threw himself against the bars
reaching for Hendrickson. Badly hurt
as she was, the woman had enough
strength left to release the catch, slide
the door part way open, and let her
