Styles in handkerchiefs have changed
this season, as have the more important
details of women's Wardrobes, and the
new designs and colorings In these small
accessories are fascinating.
To begin with. almost without exception
all the new handkerchiefs display touch
of color The exceptions are the lace
trimmed kerchiefs that are costly.
The cheaper lace handkerchiefs pre-
given a touch of color even though it may
be only a cluster of tiny dots worked in
each corner or single letter that ap-
pears in one corner.
Another new feature is the narrow hem.
No 1Ip-to-date handkerchief shows a hem
wider than one-quarter inch, and some
are even narrower
The smartest design for morning wear
or with any tailored suit is white, with a
narrow hemstitched edge inclosing band
of solid color in a deep shade. For in
stance, dark brown, dark old rose, deep
watermelon pink, dark wlstarla, apple
green etc. And as the bands are from
one to two inches wide such handker-
chiefs will be conspicuous detail or the
toilet.
For that reason alone 1t will be wise to
choose these accessories either to match
or harmonize with the gown with which
they will be worn.
No less aSsertive in regard to colorinG
are the handkerchiefs for afternoon, for
although the tones are lighter than those
used for the bands. three and sometimes
four colorngs are printed on the one
small white handkerchief. In some de
signs the corners will be blocks OF SOHO
color. in such tones as yellow, old rose
male mink and pretty shades Of blue. These
form a background for contrasting coiors
in such designs as polka dots, broken
bars and flowers cOnventionaliZed.
Others are hemmed with color and
disDlay q border inside in the design men-
toned The variety of colorS and designs
seem to be endless, so there will be no

For the same prices are dainty looking

in light tones, the initials worked in the
same tone. but in block design, just as
an initial appears on stationery.
SO far the chantecler has not entered

YOUNG GIRL RUNS A FARM.
Unique Experience Of a Sixteen-year-
old Lass Of New Jersey.

Unique Experience Of q Sixteen-year-
old Lass Of New Jersey.
Sixteen year-oid Edna L. Biting is
the youngest farmer in the United
States and is considered one Of the
most expert students Of agriculture
in New Jersey. She has taken COM
bourton. n. j.. property owned by
her uncle. The farmers of the state
call her the girl wonder and admit
that Hillside is one of the most pros
porous farms in New Jersey.
Although Miss Biting has only re-
Gently taken complete control. she has
assisted her uncle for several years.
Her father offered to pay the expenses
of a college course. but the girl pre-
ferred farming to college life and in
sisted on helping her uncle.
While at school she passed her va
cations with her uncle and soon was
able to do the work of man. She
was not satisfied with the knowledge
of the laborious part of the work. but
took a deeper interest in agriculture
and is now considered such an expert
that farmers in the vicinity seek her
advice.
1t is an interesting sight to watch
pretty girl. neatly dressed. giving
orders to and overseeing the work Of
a corps of farm hands. some Of whom
have been engaged on farms for more
than a quarter of a century.
II wouldn't live in a city IL l were
given fortune" declared the girl
after she assumed control. IF city
girls only knew how sweet country
life is they would yearn for it. l in
tend to make farming my life work. as
l think II is as important as some of
the professions girls now engage in.
Agriculture is dry to read about. but
when you have theory and practice
combined there is nothing more inter-
esting My parents do not wish me
to become farmer. but l prefer it to
any thing else and will visit a city only
when absolutely necessary"
Miss Biting has always been con-
sidered an unusually bright girl and
she maintained a high standard while
attending school. When she declined
to enter an agricultural college she
said she could master farming from
books without further instruction.
That she has succeeded even beyond
her own expectations she admits and
Is delighted over the fact.
