Now that shorter coats are to be worn, the coat of several seasons
 past, with it's narrow shoulders and gathered sleeves that joined well up
 on the shoulders, may now be utfl-
 ized. The model of the street gown
 shown in the 1efthand lower panel is
 excellent for this purpose. The slop-
 ing shoulders may be obtained by
 cutting the shoulder seam and allow ing the coat to slip down on the arm,
 thus permitting the new plain coat sleeve. The latter, because of it's snug ness, requires long shoulder seam to enable the arm to be raised. The
 neck having been greatly enlarged by
 this alteration, it can be very well
 finished by semi-shaw1 collar of the
 velvet from which the girdle-like DOT
 tion of the suit is made.
 The use of this enables the coat to
 be heightened to the degree that is
 correct in the new suit This can be
 done by cutting it in two just above
 the waist and joining these parts to
 either edge of the inserted portion. This is braided in a flat vegetable braid that is used on the edge of the coat, the collar, and the founce and panel of the skirt.
 Easily Remodeied.
 The skirt could be remode1ed from one of the pleated affairs formerly in vogue by taking out all the pleats and cutting one breadth into two panels, one longer than the other,
 and cutting the upper portion of the
 middle of the back out to make bell sleeves for the bodice. The lower half of the skirt is then gathered on to the edge of the longer of the larger panels. The same idea is carried out with the front, the panels coming only to the bottom of the coat, where the skirt is gathered onto it.
 The model shown was of elephant

your position, unless your friends are more loyal to you than you are to your employers. Betray no confidence about matters you overhear. A ques- tion asked you carelessly and ap- parently loff-hand may be to pump" you.
 Take messages over the phone ac- curately. Do not be afraid to repeat until you are certain just what is wanted. Do not depend on your mem ory, but have pencil and scratch paper at hand and jot down numbers. Be certain that person is out, before answering to that effect. Take it for granted that when one person calls another on the phone, he really wish es to communicate with that person. Unless otherwise instructed, do not take upon yourself to judge whether or not bis message is to be delivered. if you work in a big city where of fees are run by system, it is not necessary to advise you not to use the phone during business hours. If you are in a smaller place, where en- pIoyers are lenient, this advice may not come amiss.
 In the smaller towns, telephone switchboards are sometimes located in the railway station. Sometimes the telephone operator is also the tele- graph operator. Once 1 saw a wom- an station agent out signalling with her lantern. If you have the exchange located in your store or house, there is no reason why you cannot install notions, books, periodicals, or any commodity you choose, and add to your earnings.
 Responsible Positions
 Toll exchange operators on trunk lines have very responsible positions. They talk with patrons in cities from coast to coast. They have opportun- ities to make friends the country over. "Comrade Rose" is such an operator, and so many friends has she won that

 Since the gowns of this year hang on the figure rather than fit h, and hang in such a way as to appear very loose and yet with perfect ht, the tight1tting princess of last year fs hopelessly passe. Nevertheless, most fetching models lend themselves en- cellently to being made up by adapt, ing the same passe princess govn- The theatre or visiting gown shown fn the lower righthand corner is an ad- mirabls example.

The Value of the Pfastroa.

The te1ltale line of an old princess dress is about the hips. As the drawing clearly shows, this tight look is en- tirely obviated by the insertion of a pIastron, a triangu1ar,shaped piece of material over which the gown seem ing1y buttons. The net is also used for little undersleeves. This Is a very simple and excellent way of obtaining the lines of this season.
 This model was of send-co1ored h. dian cashmere, with applied bands of silk of a darker, driedIeaf shade, cut in points. The plasuon Is of silk net, the same shade as the gown, and braided in soutache the tone of the applique. The hat Is a violet erin adorned with single delicate aigrette, shading from deep cream to musa- room pink and fastened to the crown by means of an Egyptian headpiece.
 These pieces are most clever fmi- fat1ons of the time-eolored ones seen only in museums among collections of ancient coins. The colors shade through all the various tones of vio- let, green, yellow and pink.

Early Summer Fabrics.

FaScinat1ngly low in tone and won derfuI1y soft in texture are the new fabrics for spring and early summer. We are fast returning to the materials and modes of our grandmothers-silk and wool mixtures, silk pop1fns, In~ dian cashmere, hopsacking, silk voile and wool voile, serges of every de- scription, some of the new weaves with crepe Things in them, others plain and figures, with numbeTless va riations of that practical fabric, mo- hair; not to mention marvellous zibe- lines and camelshairs.
 The last named immediately present to the minds eye the pictures of stiff, unwie1dy surfaces and long, heavy, messy looking camelshafrs. But not so. In all the seasons output, no more alluring fabrics are shown than these erstwhile plebeian mohairs and impractical zibelines. The mohair is soft and pliable, at the same time re- taining all it's characteristic endur- ance and dust-eluding qualities.
 As for zibeline and camelshair, ons has thought of them hitherto as only weighty, midwinter fabrics. But now, instead of being unbearably warm for spring wear, they are light in weight, with the hair all on the wrong side, and give the appearance of rich, glos sy panne velvet.
 While their price is at present prep hibitive for immediate popularity, they are safe investments, as they are pre- dicted for long run. Being made from real camePs hair, they range from $2.OO up, in width averaging 54 inches.

@. What benefits come from birds?
A. Aside from the good cheer which
the presence of birds inspires, their
economic value is very great. Birds
are our greatest natural check upon
Insects, tending to prevent their I'M
due increase and preserve the proper
balance in nature. They feed upon
caterpillars, grubs, cutworms, beetles,
bugs, butterflies. moths, grasshoppers,
chinch bugs, plant lice and many other
destructive insects. Some birds are
on hand all the year to guard the
crops and trees against the ravages
Of insects.
Another large service rendered by
birds is the destruction of various
rodent pests, such as gophers, sper-
mophiles, mice and rabbits which work
they become numerous. The annual
loss occasioned by insects and rodents
amounts to several million dollars
each year in the United States. This
loss is increasing as tillage increases
and birds are destroyed Hence it is
of the greaest Importance to agri-
culture that our valuable native birds
be preserved and everything possible
be done to allow them to increase.
The third great line of service is in
the destruction of weed seed Many
kinds of birds feed upon the seeds of
noxious weeds, in this way destroying
countless millions of seeds that other
wise would terminate and spring up
to pollute the fields, lessen the yield
of grain and lower it's market value.
The service rendered here amounts to
many million dollars annually in the
United States.
Certain birds also serve as scaven-
gers, consuming decaying animal mat
ter that otherwise might become a
source of pollution of our air, streams
and water supplies, thus endangering
health.
The use of native game birds for
food is an important item also and
may be made even more important
through the proper conservation and
increase of our native game birds,
and by domestication and rearing as
permitted by the present North Da-
kota law.

MODERN HAIR DRESSING

has played havoc with the tresses of the
fair sex, and druggists everywhere COM
ment on the fact that they are selling
large quantities of sage for making the
old-fashioned ''sage tea," such as was
used by our grandmothers for promoting
the growth of their hair and restoring its
natural color. The demand for this well-
known herb for this purpose has been so
great that one manufacturer has taken
advantage of the fact, and has placed on
the market an ideal sage tea" contain
ing sulphur, a valuable remedy for dam
druff and scalp rashes and irritations.
This preparation, which is called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur, is sold by all leading

Opinion On Roosevelts Attitude
How President Rowell, of the Lincoln Roosevelt
League Looks at "The Battle of Saratoga"
San Diego, Cal, Oct. %.

Asked as to his opinion on Roosevelt s relations to
ident of the Lincoln Roosevelt league, writes, under
date of Oct. 9th, as follows:
''My personal opinion of the Saratoga platform
and of Mr. Roosevet's relations thereto is that it
was the result of convention trade, in which Roosp
welt got the endorsement for temporary chairman,
the nomination of a governor and direct primary
plank in return for other planks in the platform of
which he did not personally approve, and Of
which he has in effect since repudiated The Taft
part of the platform probably expresses his honest
judgment
''The remainder of the trade was probably justi-
fled by the eXigencies Of practical politics under the
conditions of the convention system; and it Mr..
Roosevet's opinion that if he could get promise to
abolish that system in the future, he would be justi
fled in submitting to Of its evils now. AS
matter of fact criticism of Roosevelt for accepting
platform which did express the views, at least
the consent, of majority of the convention, and did
not express his views, assumes that Mr.. ROose-
welt ought to have been the dictator of that
convention. AS matter of fact do not believe he
was able to dictate it except by compromising, and
do not believe he ought to have dictated it if he
could. Neither do L think he should be held respon-
Bible for having accepted, without personal protest.
the best that could be got under the conditions.
There is difference between the action of the in
dividua outside critic and of the actual worker in
the ranks. The critic may accept per cent 80
per cent 80 per cent of what is DONE and declare
his dissent as to the remainder but the man engaged
IN the actual fight must be satisfied with as much
over 30 per cent he get, and is under oblga
ton to set himself up critic to the remainder
This is merely the difference between the duty of
man working for results through organized effort
and a spectator commenting in his individual ca
pacity on that effort"
