on the hammocks. The several ham

are making a good living by farming
on a small scale. Several residences
have been built close to small lakes,
where the family can catch fish on one
side of their dwelling and see their
crop growing on the other side. There
Is also several small but beautiful
creeks flowing into these lakes from

chesa was visiting the United States
with her parents. Victor Smith, the
husband, was a handsome southerner
with the manners of a cavalier and
instantly captivated her. One of her
uncles many years had eloped with the
great Italian tragedienne, Ristori, and
the impetuous, romantic young mar
chesa saw no harm in doing the same
thing with the dapper looking Amer

Her husband prospered and she

came apprised of the necessity OF
earning her own living, she has been
posing for artists but her worries have
impaired her former beauty and made
1t increasingly difficult for her to Sc

her condition has been pathetic. Toe

GIRL EMPLOYEES
BARRED.

The big railroads of the country
have locked their doors against the
women folk. They don't want 'em
hanging round making eyes at the
trousered office help, chewing gum
and talking all the time.
The consensus of opinion among
railorad officials is that:
Girls are inclined to f1irt and waste
their time.
They primp, powder and manicure
during business hours.
: They chatter and tie up the busy
telephone lines.
They get married as soon as they get
efficient.
They hold places of men who could
go up in the service.
The Southern Pacific started the
war on the feminine ONCE force with
an order that no more girl stenog-
raphers shall be employed. The Bur-
lington, the Northwestern and other
big systems fell into line.
Girls may or may not be a success
in the railroad business, but they are
there with the bells on in the rest
of the business world. The big mail
order houses say they couldn't get
along without them.
These business men unanimously
champion the girls cause because,
they say:
Girls are reliable, quick to learn
and efficient.
They mind their own business
don't smoke, chew tobacco and talk
baseball.
They leave their positions more
frequently than men, but are easier
to replace.
They have a greater capacity for
details than men.
AS stenographers and clerks they
are more polite and pleasant to asso-
ciate with.
Their quick sympathy and intuitive
powers in times of business crisis
make them indispensable.
They are usually not lazy, don't
grumble and work for less money
So there you are!

WHAT WE'LL WEAR.

WHAT WE'LL WEAK.
Even now feminine interest begins
to awaken in serge suits and dresses
for the autumn and in cloth and vel
vet costumes for later in the year.
For the coming season the coats of
tailored suits will be comparatively
short, but decidedly longer than dur
ing the summer.
The jacket will be semi-fitting at
the waistline, but the long front clos
ing brought down below the waistline
will be retained.
The big directoire revers, either
plain in cloth or serge, or draped in
satin or soft velvet, the square, round,
or pointed sailor collar, and the long,
straight sleeve, will all be incorpo-'
rated in the new semi-tailored suit.
Many fall coats show a double breast
ed front, with one side brought we'll
over the other. This turns back and
forms a big rever when the coat is
unfastened.
New skirts are just a trifle wider
than they have been. But they are
still distinctly narrow, and hang per-
fectly straight. Some Of them are
made with a few fiat plaits at the
base. Most OF them have a round
tunic at the front and sides, and a
wide panel at the back.
The waistline In both suit skirts
and in dresses is high and round.
For dresses, the one sided effect
obtained by spiral tunics on the skirt,
and a single revers on the waist, is
perhaps the predominant feature of
the present moment.
Fichus and collars brought down
below the waistline in the back are
very good. The fchu or collar is al
most always white, even on a dark
dress.
/ For tailor-made costumes for the
autumn--a wool velvet-known as
velours de laine-is to take the place
! of summer silks, taffetas and satins.
Either plain goods, stripes or figures
! is correct.
! For the afternoon semi-tailored suit
! silk CT cotton velvet is proper, and for
/ morning suits and dresses navy blue
serge is good from one years end TO
the other.
! For daytime wear, the colors are
| quiet, as one would naturally expect
at this season of the year.

black and white and dark crow blue

( Paris is always partial to those colors
l and while a new shade may appear
and hold for a season or two, it is
always shown against a background
| of black and white that will eventu-

This season the very vivid, trans

its claims as a popular favorite fol

GOODIES THAT GROW
ON A Goa

Corn on the cob is often tough, not
because 1t is old, fbut because it has
been cooked too long. Many persons
do not know that ten or fifteen min
utes' boiling in unsalted water is quite
sufficient. Salt hardens the kernels.
BY way of variety, try serving corn
fritters as a dessert. Sweeten the bat
ter just little, fry and send to the
table piping hot, busted with sugar
and serve with honey or maple syrup.
Down south they often serve corn
pudding as a dessert. 1t is sweetneed
and eaten with sugar and thick cream.
When there are corn and potatoes
left from a previous meal, cut the corn
from the cob and the potatoes into
dice. Mix them and cook in butter,
tossing continually until the mixture
is slightly brown. Season with salt
and pepper.
