kicked it on the nose, but at the next attempt

VARIETY IN VANITY BOXES
Some In Parasol Handles, Others IN
the Heads Of Hat Pins, and
All Arc Pretty.

Ingenuity lavishes itself upon the
vanity box which woman has come TO
regard a necessity. Every season
sees It in new and more cleverly de-
vised forms.
The newest development are the
parasol top and the hatpin vanity
bon. At the top Of the metal handle
Of the parasol a circular lid opens
and discloses powder puff and box
and a mirror set into the cover.
The immense hatpins in vogue sug'
gested the possibility Of accommo'
dating powder box and mirror. Many
Of the big ball heads or the. highly
arched disk heads carry these little
toilet necessaries.
Locket powder boxes come in all
sizes from little ones an inch and a
half long to those measuring three
inches. They are worn like an ordi'
nary locket on chain about the neck
or dangle from bracelets or from this

The fat, round plated frill has
usurped the place Of the round, nat

rule, but that makes no difference to
the yotaries Of fashion. This frill ia
made Of very sheer material laid In

The collar Is intended to be worn
with a slightly low neck or white

FLOWERS IN A WINDOW BOX
n No Provision Has Yet Been Made,
Do Not Foreso Pleasure Before u
Seems Too Late.

II there are some windows about
the house where you would like to
have some plants growing, and no pro-
visions have been made for boxes for
them. don't forego the pleasure be-
cause It seems to be late in the sea-
son. Use Coleus instead of towering
plants. A row Of the yellow variety
about the outside of the box, with
scarlet in the center will make your
window brilliant with color, and as
these plants are Of rapid growth you
will not have to wait long for results.
They will often be found more salts
factory than Towering plants, because
their richly-colored foliage will take
the place of flowers, and It will be in
evidence at all times; while few flow
ering plants will afford a constant
show of color. The gray Centaurea
and the orange yellow Pyrethrum
("Golden Feather") can be used with
the scarlet and yellow varieties of Co
leus, with fine effect.

Fall blowing helps to destroy the

The latter seems to be q very descrip-
tive name. As is more or less gen.
orally known, the botanical family to
which the mustards belong also takes
in some very useful cultivated crops,
such as the turnip plant, the rape, cab
bage, caulifower and radish. The
hare's-ear mustard is one Of the BLACK
sheep" Of the family that bears con-
siderable resemblance in LEAKAGE to-
ward its estimable cousin, the cab
bage plant. the leaves Of the young
plant being fieshy in appearance and
Of much the same color as the leaves
of a young cabbage.
This is weed quite general
throughout the West, and spreading
rapidly. It bears q creamy-white
flower about the end Of June and rip
ems its seeds in August and Septem-
Der. The plant developes quite stif,
wiry stem when ripe, and during its
growing period It takes up consider
able room, crowding out other plants
and making a heavy drain upon the
moisture content Of the soil.

The Rose Nun.

The well-dressed women OF Paris
ana Vienna have come to the conclu'
sion that It is no longer necessary to
wear gloves in the summer months
They have discovered that gloves,
whether kid, silk, suede, twill or
Danish leather are not only uncomfort'
able IA the hot season, but are pretu-
dicial tp health. So in June, July, Au-
gust and September the hands must
be left quite gloveless. not even mitts
being fashionable.
The no gloves idea has been well
coined By votaries Of tennis, golf, GRO
uuet and rowing. To cover the hands
while at these sports has been great
mistake, they argue.
While gloves are discarded 1t is not
intended that the hands Of the woman
in a BALLROOM or q theater shall be
exposed. They are to be placed in a
more agreeable prison in the form Of q
rose muif.
The rose mum is made Of wire so
fashioned that flowers. more particu-
larly roses can be inserted. It Is al
most as lohg and as broad as the or
binary winter nun. The roses placed
in It remain fresh for six hours. The
introduction of this portable rosary
has been voted q success. Several

INDEPENDENCE
ON THE FARM
SPLENDID RESULTS FOLLOW
FARMING IN THE CANADIAN
WEST.
americans In Canada Not Asked "a
Forget That They Were Born
Americans.

Farm produce today IL remunera-
dive, and this helps to make farm life
agreeable. Those who are studying
the economics of the day tell US that
the strength of the nation lies In the
cultivation of the soil. Farming is no
longer hand-to-mouth existence. It
means independence, often afluence.
but certainly independence.
Calling at farm house, near one of
the numerous thriving towns Of Al
berta, in Western Canada, the writer
was given q definition Of "indepen-
dence" that was accepted as quite
original. The broad acres Of the farm
Or's land had a crop-and splendid
one, too, by the way-ripening for the
reapers work. The evenness Of the
crop, covering field after field, attract
ed attention, as did also the neatness
of the surroundings, the well-built sub
stantial story-and-a-half log house, and
the well-rounded sides Of the cattle.
His broken English-he was French
Canadlan-was easily understandable
and pleasant to listen to. He had
come there from Montreal a year ago,
had paid $50 an acre for the 320-acre
farm, with the little improvement II
had. He had never farmed before, yet
his crop was excellent, giving eN-
dence as to the quality of the soil, and
the good judgment that had been used
in its preparation. And brains count
in farming as we'll as Draw" Asked
how he liked It there, he Strengthened
his broad shoulders, and with hand
outstretched towards the waving fields
Of grain, this young French Canadian,
model Of symmetrical build, replied:
BE gosh, yes, we like him-the
farmin'-well, don't we, Jeannette?"
as he smilingly turned to the young
wife standing near. She had accom-
panied him from Montreal to his far
west home, to assist him by her wifely
help and companionship, in making
new home in this new land. Eyes, we
come here wan year ago, and we never

Throughout a trip Of several hun

Of Western Canada, the writer found
the farmers in excellent spirits, an
optimistic feeling being prevalent
everywhere. 1t will be interesting to
the thousands on the American side
of the line to know that their rela-
tives and friends are doing well there,
that they have made their home In q
country that stands up so splendidly
under what has been trying conditions
in most of the northwestern part Of
the farming districts Of the continent.
With the exception Of some portions
of Southern Alberta, and also a por-
