THE NEW SPRING SUIT.

1.-The tailored suit comes first when
We begin to think and plan for our
spring wardrobe, says Grace Margaret
Gouid in Woman's Home Companion
for March. 1T is always a crying need
when the first breath of spring comes
to the air. Just how to make it or to
have it made, is then a most important
question. If your tailored suit does not
show the new cut this spring, there is
no use spending a cent of money for it,,
for it will be hopelessiy out of date. II
must conform to the straight line slim
figure, and the chief point of newness
is the cut.
1.-THE coats are straight and short.
They are fitted across the shoulders,
fitted around the hip-line. and semi
fitted only in the waist. There is surely
a blessing hidden away in this new cut.
Does it not mean that women will nc
longer insist on wearing a corset en-
tirely too small? And will it not end,
if we are fortunate enough to have the
fashion last. in women being able and
glad to learn to breathe as they should.
THE fashionable coat length is jus,
to the PORT of the hip, though the
length varies from nineteen to twenty,
six inches. In the spring tailored suit
the coat and the skirt must match per
fectly. If the coat, for instance. is Gu
with a panel, back and front, the Skin
must show precisely the same lines
that is, the panel must appear back ant

When you are hit by the warmer
weather of spring, you begin to feel
sluggish, a bad taste in your mouth,
bones ache, no appetite for breakfast;
you should at once cleanse and purify
your blood by taking Semmes' Sarsa-
parilla Co. with Iodide Potash. 1t is
pleasant to take and goes at once to
the spot. You feel better right away.
Three bottles will fortify your health
against the long hot summer. We re-
turn your money if not satisfied after
taking a dollar bottle; and we live uI
to the guarantee.

value of the butter produced in Missis-
sippi in 1908 was S., Ill, O36, or for ev-
cry dollars worth of cottonseed oil
used in making oleomargerine the cows
of the state returned over 500 worth of
dairy products.
These are facts which the farmers of
of Mississippi should carefully consider
before they lend their support to any
movement which ~discourages dairying.
An increase in the production of dairy
products in Mississippi will be just 69
times of greater value than an increase
in the production of oleomargerine.
This is not even taking into consider
alton the value of dairying in building
up the fertility of the soil, thus making
| the land more productive in growing
cotton.
The farmers of Mississippi should
awake to the benefits of dairying and
should use every legitimate means to
foster and promote this important in
| dustry.

Ten Good Rules For Health

lection. but do your best.
 S. Direct your caliSthenics prlncl- pally at the middle of your body, ana let them consist mainly of stretch1ngs and torsions Combine them with laughter when you can. Carry your body with the abdomen walls drawn in. Use chairs with convexity to Tt the small of the back.
 g. Seek your fellow-men. Play with children. Be affectionate.
 10. Cultivate scenery and art and music and literature-not in a merely fastidious or pedantic way, but with a whole heart toward San that is hu- man and healthy.
 Paragraphs g and 10 are veritable little sermons in themselves. The art of making and keeping friends is a noble and repaying accomplishment. Ebert Hubbard gives the following formula, "How to make friends-be one" That is the secret in a nutshell. Books have been written on the value of friendship. A mans sorrows will joys increased and his mental, moral, and physical health improved if he has good friends to rely on. A mans business friends form one of his greatest assets. they help him onward to success. Few men succeed in fighting the world alone. Solitude is all very well at times, but recreation with congenial friends is great re- storer to tired bodies and brains. And what would the world be without the laughter of children? Children are the sweet-scented flowers of life They bring sunshine and ambition and sur cease from care; Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them nor, for such is the kingdom of heaven"
 And what a dreary world this would be without music and art and the fel- lewship of good books. Beautiful scenery, like sleep, is Natures sweet restorer. A man, to live a well-round- ed life must learn to play as we'll as to work. It Is sometimes hard to keep the balance true, but love of nature and art and capacity for hard work are excellent handmaidens. Learn to enjoy the graces and ameni- ties of life. cultivate a capacity to ap-, preciate the works of master minds and great souls, and an added beauty will come into your life which will en- rich and lengthen it.

Herbert W. Fisher, the author of Making Life Worth While" has con- tributed an interesting article in a re- cent number of Country Life in Amer ica, in which he formulates ten health rules which have a great deal of com- mon sense in them and which we take the liberty of quoting. They are as follows:
 1. Keep your skin always in con- tact with at least a filtered envelope of sunlight and air. That is. while wearing clothes enough for comfort, have every garment porous. Repair to the outdoor sym or the bathing beach whenever God lets you. Ex> pose your skin as much as you can while passing from bedclothes to day clothes.
 ?. Take daily baths. cold enough to sting. but not to prostrate.
 3. Get the pureSt air available and breathe it deep. Sleep out of doors when you can, or on. sleeping ball. cony,or at least near an open win> dow, protecting your neck and shoul- ders from a direct draught, if need be. by means of a. screen. and perhaps by an extra extension of your blanket with an aperture for the head.
 f. Give the preference to hard foods, i; avoiding fancy foods and hot condi- nentS.
 5. Be rested before eating. to that end sometimes snatching nap, or at least lying down and relaxing. At meals compose yourself and be with friends. After eating do not work too soon or too hard. Set yourself a high CT standard of enjoyment; that is, if simple foods, we'll masticated. be not intensely enjoyable. refuse to daily or to- coax yourself.
 6. If you drink at meals, drink nothing very cold. Do not drink while food is in your mouth. It is better to drink regularly between meals. fMr. Fisher specifically discourages the use of the four nervipes-tea, cof- fee, alcohol, and tobaccoO

AN AMERICAN HEROINE.

If one were to gage a woman's hap piness by the number of decorations that adorn the corsage of her dinner dress or ball gown, no one should be more entirely content with life than Mime Bakhmetieff. the American-b born wife of the new plenipotentiary of the Czar at Washington. 1t is certain that no one else has ever come to the United States in the role of the am- bassadress of a foreign power who the rulers of the old World. Many of them and certainly those which Mme Bakhmetieff values most highly were bestowed upon her in recognition or her work in relieving the suffering among the Macedonian refugees in Bulgaria when her husband was rep resenting the Czar at Sofia seven years ago.
 A convert to the national church Of Russia Mime. Bakhmetieff is the elder of the two daughters of the late Gen. eral Edward Fitzgerald Beale who took part in the Mexican War, served through the war of the Union on the sent by him as American Minister to Austria. It was at Vienna that Gen eral Beale's daughters spent the four most impressionable years of their girlhood and also acquired some of that knowledge of diplomatic life stead ever since. The elder married at Washington, in 1883, George Bakh- metieff, then Secretary of the Rus sian Legation, now the Embassy of which he has become the chief: and not long afterwards her sister, Emily, became the wife of John R.

Before the adjournment of the meet ing of the Board of Education, last evening, A. T. Veness, who retires on New Years as superintendent of the Union Typewriter Company, made an announcement to his fellow com missioners, that while business is to call him to Chicago, he expects to be in close touch with the affairs of the city, for some time, and will keep his residence in Bridgeport for year at least.
 His resignation as a member of the board will not be presented he said, for two or three months He asked the commissioners as a mark of cour- tesy to him to withhold action on his resolutions, scheduled to come up at the next Regular meeting, should it prove impossible for him to attend, for if he doesn't attend the next reg ular meeting, he will surely be here for the next succeeding regular meet ing.
 Mr. veness' resolution prohibiting members of the board from doing work sor the board was taken from the table and without dissenting vote tabled until the next regular meeting. Meanwhile action is ex- pected on the part of the board of al- dermen on a resolution covering some- what the same ground.

STONED IN CHICAGO BECAUSE
 sF.t SHE RODE IN A HIGH +ts DOG.CART.

in the January American Magazine is an interesting sketch of Mrs. J. T. Bowen of Chicago a woman of wealth and ability, whose contributions to- ward the betterment of her city are described in an article by Jane Ad- dams. Following is an extract from the article. showing how Chicago used to. treat anybody who undertook to establish metropolitan standerdsthere:
 Chicago, in spite of its size and somewhat world-weary aspect, is yet so- absurdly young that inhabitants of old Fort Dearborn are still living and children and grandchildren recall spirited recitals of Indian forays re- pulsed from it's first stockade. One Of these, Mrs. Joseph T. Bowen, heard many stirring adventures from her grandfather, Edward H. Hadduck, who in the early thirties drove a prai- rie schooner from Detroit containing S2G0 GOO in gold which the United States Government sent to Fort Dearborn. The young government employee. much impressed with the shipping facilities at the foot of Lake Michigan. returned to. Fort Dearborn the following year. and this time the prairie schooner car ried his bride and the household equip ment of a pioneer.
 Louise Hadduck DeKoven. the sub- ject sf this sketch, was their only grandchfld. The family lived for the corner of Wabash Avenue and Monroe Street, past which punches of cattle were continually driven on their way to the stockyards.
 ' Young Chicago was striving in many ways to be more fashionable and Miss deKoven at the age of it. teen assumed her obligation in this direction by appearing in the first high siog-caft which the city had ever seen. Both she and the liveried man behind her were at times vigorously stoned as a demonstration of democracy. and on one occasion the groom, exasper- ated by these missiles and holding dem- ocratic principles of his own, jumped down from the cart as it was cross- ing Rush Street Bridge, finging his .despised coat and high hat into the hack of it as he hetly announced.

COLLEGE WOMEN SAY THEY
 WANT FOUR CHILDREN.

In the January Woman's Home Com panion is an article, entitled "Is the American Man a Failure?" Follow ing is an interesting extract:
 "A recent investigation among col- lege women was made by Robert Hav- 'en Schauffler, and college women, as canvassed by him, desired at least four children. The statistics of Har- yard College shows that the average number of children for the class of 1884 per married graduate was 200; for the class of 'S5. 2.07; the class of 's6, 2.O2; class of 'S7. 1!67; class of 'SS. 1.SO; class of 'S9, 1.72, and in these classes the percentage of married graduates without children varied be- tween nineteen and twenty-eight per cent It is not probable that there is very much difference between, the rec ords of Harvard College and those or any other eastern college for men; it Is fairly typical statement of the class of men of this generation, ana yet the young women of the present generation would be glad to have four or five children. And in this canvass made by Mir >Scha uffler there were practically no women who made the statement that they didn't want any children"
