II you have any Of the heavy Italian
lace that has been so popular In recent
years you can turn It to account in all
sorts Of odd ways this season.
For instance. you can use small bits
Of It to make huge heads for hatpins.
Sometimes these heads are made from
button molds covered with colored
satin and then with an outer layer of
lace. Or you can use one Of the cheap
metallic hatpins OF vivid tone as a
foundation. giuing the lace smoothly

If you have an old pair Of blue or
pink satin slippers that refuse further
cleaning they can be covered with this
heavy lace. Amy shoemaker will do 1t
for you. but clever girl can manage
1t herself by cutting the lace the exact
shape OF slipper. using paste and fine
needle and sewing silk. Any puckering
can be concealed under buckles or fluff

Medallions OF lace can be set into
the tnstep OF silk stockings by any
woman who can applique neatly and
wifi be careful not to cut away the
silk hosiery until the lace is SO firmly
sewed that there is no possibility Of
run stitches.
This combination OF lace and foot
gear was seen on pair OF high white
satin shoes that were distinctly more
novel than beautiful. There was a fat
border and narrow motif on the in

ARKANSAS CITY WOMAN.

Kansas City, Mo,.-The wOrld's
vermiform appendix record is held in
Kansas City. Miss Stella Hogan
holds the title, and in a preservative
bottle in the Office of DR.. St. Elmo
Sanders is an eleven inch appendix
to support her claim.

record, was removed at the hospital
by DR.. Sanders. Miss Hogan recov-
cred and left the hospital in three
weeks.
The ordinary appendix is from one
and one half to two inches long.

was six inches long. Four days later

champion for four days, had lost the
record. Gould's appendix measure

TIMELY HINTS
ON THE CULTURE OF BROOM CORN
BROOMS RETAILING AT rs CENTS.

The field is prepared for the seed
by the same methods as for Indian
corn-that is, being plowed, and
should be narrowed thoroughly just
before planting. 1t is then drilled
in rows three and half feet apart,
and from 10 to so stalks to the rod.
Planting time is from the Is ofMay
to the Is of June. 1t requires from
90 to 40 days for broom corn to ma
ture. When the little yellow blossom
drops off and the milky, apulp of the
seed begins to mature, which occurs
about the 18th of August, the brush
must be cut quickly, for when the
seed gets ripe the bursh turns from a
green to red color and the value of
the brush greatlp decreases.
Some farmers break broom corn
several days before they cut it in or
der to have it grown straight. This
is mistaken idea, as it will ruin
your crop every time.
During the process of cutting, a
man takes the lead and starts in be-
tween two rows. going backward,
and breaks the stalks over about
three feet from the ground crossing
them so that table is formed with
the brush protuding or either side.
The first process is called tableing"
the cord, and is done Immediately
before cutting. The rest of the cut
tiers will follow their leader tableing
as they go, and then return, cutting
off the brush, and laying it in bun
ches on the table formed by the
bending over of the stalks. 1t is
then gathered in and threshed and
carried to the sheds to cure.
These sheds are provided with
shelves, where the brush is spread
out in thin layers so as to let the air
pass Through, so it may dry quickly.
The broom corn should be threshed
the same day it is cut, but it can be
dried first then threshed, the dust
being the worst feature in threshing
dry corn.

WHEN USING GLYcERrNE.

Glycerine is enc of the most yalu-
able cosmetics we have, as it whitens
and softens most skins, and also is a
powerful bleacher.
There are some skins with which
it does not seem to agree, probably
because it is not diluted sufficiently.
If used in too concentrated form
it abstracts so much moisture from
the skin it has the effect of burning.
For dry or sensitive skins glyce-
rine should be diluted about one-third
part to two-thirds of some perfumed
watered; for the average skin one
half of each will be weak enough.

the price wentup from $685. to 50. 95
a hundred-weight, with the state
ment that by March the price will
be slo.o5. This is the highest price
known in the local market for more

The continued breaking of records
in prices of the hogs is due to shortage
of the supply here. The local market
this week is short between 1000
