Wall Papers
All Your Own


There's one great advantage
in selecting wall papers from
OK stock-the designs you
pick will not be seen on your
neighbors' walls. Our great
variety max s it possible for
US to furnish satisfactory
papers for houses all over
town and still have each
house papered differently.
Another advantage is that
our papers are all the latest
designs-ihe most artistic
designs, too, that have been
produced this year.
Our papers are bought direct
from the manufacturers and
you only have to pay our
small profit. Our prices can
not be beaten anywhere.
It's time to paper now
Don't put off the work I'M
til the most beautiful papers
are gone At least come in
and see what there is in our
stock
We can afford you
every wall paper sd-
vantage that you can
get anywhere and many
advantages impossible
to obtain elsewhere in
this locality.

Many new skirts ars nottceably wild

single wide plat or tab of last season,
two or three narrow box plaits ap-
pear-the plaits about three inches
wide.
In the most approved couture the
ears are concealed and the lower the
hair comes over them the better. The
wide band which has so long reigned
supreme is now being superseded by
the narrow ones.
White is to be fashionable in mil
linery, and whispers that our mlllin-
ers have laid in unusual stocks OF

white wings of all descriptions for

There seems to be predominance
of wing trimming on hats from the

favorite method OF arrangement is a
sort of banded effect so that the wings
entirely envelop the crown.

Billy is coaching the football team for

the struggle. He has no time to de-

daughter.
And l wish Billy to have his mind

Perhaps If he knew that you had
consented to our marriage 1t would
make him so happy that he would pull
the boys through He thinks about
your refusal all the time"
I'll tell you what I'll do" said Mrs
Baxter after some thought. IF Billys

'Yes. you may. and that If he loses

Annette rushed Off TO the telephone,

that when the last few days before

Annette one afternoon during the
training went out to view the practice
game, but her appearance was marked
by a cheer, which brought the blush
Of maidenly modesty to her cheek, and
she did not venture on the field again
Then came the day of the fight,
which that year took place at West
Point. The president Of the United
States, the chief of the general staff
and hosts OF others in authority were
spectators The middies marched on
to the ground headed by their band.
while the cadets kept step to the
strains of their own martial music
Annette, conscious that she, being the
prize of the day, would attract I'M
bounded attention. refused to be pres
ent, but the captain of the army team
sent word to her that If she did not
come to cheer his boys he would not
answer for the consequences. This
brought her to terms. and when Lieu
tenant Dolman escorted her to her
seat she was received by a huzza
from the army team and the waving
Of handkerchiefs from the spectators.
In the first half the middies made
one touchdown, distinguishing them,
selves by brilliant play. The army
men showed as much vigor and de-
termination at the end Of the half as
at the beginning. In the second half

fate of pair of lovers depended on

part of the game shown by the mid

kept himself constantly before their

Baxter waved to them. When time
was called for the game to close the

PROPER HOUSE FOR POULTRY
Mistaken Idea to Think That Hens Do
Not Lay in Winter Because Their
Coop Is Not Warm.

Very often l hear persons say, Our
hens don't lay in the winter becaIse
our hen house is not warm enough -
I have kept hens, lots of them, for
% years, and kept them for eggs and
| got the eggs, too, and | never kept
them i'll warm house either | will
tell you what | depend upon to keep
the hens warm in winter and that is
good heavy feathering G have the
Rhode Island Reds and there IS no
breed that has better coat of feath-
ers for winter than this one), says
writer in the Successful Farmer. Rich
blood and active exercise keep Il in
circulation. Yes, ! used to try to
make my hen houses warm bGt only
succeeded in introducing a condition
which, if followed up. looked to me rs
though they would be worse than the
cold.
| don't wish to have it understood
that my houses are open with cracks
and knot holes, for they are not; ev-
cry part is made tight except at the
windows where tie muslin curtain is
in. The question is not how warm
you can make your poultry house. but
how dry you can make it, There is
no danger in having it too dry. When
you have built a hen house with two
thicknesses of boards and paper be-
tween, tight doors and windows and
a good roof and lots of glass on the
south side, you have what some call
warm house, but you have what | call
damp one, that is II you have very
many hens in it, and it will be damp
just as long as you keep it tight and
close and allow no ventilation A'hen
will stand a lot of cold and long, too
if she is in a dry house.

The Indian Runner duck lays bet

where the hens can have free access.
Turnips take the place of grass and
other green's which cannot be had in

feeding in this way is to prevent the
hens from scratching them through
dirt and litter. Potatoes and apples
can also be fed in the same manner.
