very satisfactory. This can be cut

Two sets OF curtains and covers

and a clean one besides. In this way
there is always fresh set awaiting
the incoming guest.

or sable collars. and the newest muffs
and scarfs are made of two contrast
ing furs. In fact. any combination Of
furs is the thing this year. There are,
however. exceptions to this rule. and
several women of fashion have or
dered costly all-ermine coats for eve
ming wear this winter.
These ermlne coats, by the way,
while being anything but bulky. are
wonderfully full. and can be fairly
wound about the figure. They are
masterpieces of the furrier's skill, but
it costs no less than twenty-five hun.

So says Dame Fashion when milady
quizzed her about her new furs. This
news, taken in connection with the fact
that prices of pelts Of almost every
sort are soaring, makes one fairly
gasp at the amount of money fashion
able women are forced to spend on
their winter furs.
Next to the increased size of fur
pieces this season. the most striking
thing about the new fur creations Is
the combinations. There are almost
no coats made of one fur throughout

Farms for Children.

Perhaps the smallest farms in the
world. each four by eight feet. have
been devised by Mrs. Henry Parsons
for the International Children's School
Farm league, and demonstrated in
New York. Each child becomes owner
Of his diminitive farm. in which he
works. grows and harvests seven diff

are borne by him in triumph to his
family About each farm is an 1S-inch
path, which he keeps in order; under
his instructor it becomes a tiny oh.

Lace Rounded.

When lace is added to round dolly,
this may be help. says the Ladies'
Home Journal: Measure the exact
quantity of lace needed. match the
pattern and join the edges. Double
the lace and roll it end to end; then
wrap the straight or inside edge tight
ly with a cord to half the width of
the lace. Dip the cord end in water
to shrink it. Lay it aside until dry.
then remove the cord and unroll. The
lace will be circular and may easily
be sewed to the dolly.

NO GRIP NOW

For three years the Chicago
health department has been look
ing for the influenza bacillus, ex-
aiming about 10000 samples of
sputum a year, and not one has
been found to contain the grip"
bacillus. The conclusion is that
there really hasn't been any grip
in Chicago for 20 years-not
since the great epidemic of
1912.
The fact is la grippe is a true
epidemic, and when it comes it
spreads. What people call grip"
these days is cold, caused BY
one or the other of several differ
ent bacteria.

In Grace's case it was true. She
sent for physician, and urged
Miss Townsend to telephone the
relatives and friends of Jack. As
the landlady knew none of them,
Grace thought the young man
poor and friendless, and deter
mined to take care of him, think
ing he could not afford nurse.
For three weeks she did this,
Jack insisting all the time that he
was in heaven. Then the fever
broke and he fell into a refreshing
slumber.
When he awoke the girl in
white was sitting at his side. He
looked at her curiously for a mo

have gotten into the way of using
Standard ertiliZers-S-S5-2-2 or
1922. We wish to urge upon them
the importance of using high-grade
goods. 1t takes the same time and
labor to haul out and distribute s.
S5-2-2 as it does 8-4-4 or 8-3-3
You give it tho same cultivation, and
the crop made with 8-3-3 or SD
IS far better than tho crop made
with 1922. IT costs IL little more,
but the extra crop will pay the Diff
ference in the cost five times over.
S-3-3 is an ideal fertilizer for red
lands and SID for gray lands. The
prosperous, moneymaking, money
lending farmers of Anderson county
have quit using anything except the
High Grade Fertilizer.
When man has used the High
Grade Fertilizer for a while he quits
asking the price Of the low grade
goods.
In using Fertilizer with per
cent ammonia you only use about 8
pounds Of ammonia to the acre.
Some of that Is washed away, some
Is eaten up by the grass, so that
very little gets to the plant. When
YOU have around 1900 plants to
the acre the amount to each plant
Is exceedingly small. When you use
SD you simply double the amount
OF plant food to each plant.
If you can't risk the High Grade
Goods on all your crops, risk 1t on a
part or 1t and see the difference in
crops. You may take our word for
