AS a mother in Israel and woman Of
experience and discretion, / wish to lift up
my voice in the councils of the people and
protest that not all the sartorial olfenses
are committed by members of my sex.
What is more idiotic and uncomfortable
than the masculine street garb? The coat,
in summer, is an abomination, as ali men
confess, yet they haven't the courage to GO
without it., Trousers are the last word in
hideousness, and have neither comfort,
grace nor modesty to commend them. And
no woman would wear a stiff straw or derby
hat that left its mark in a red groove

On general observation it would seem as
though the question of the day was not the
high cost of living but what the standards

be.
On walking along the street one Is COM
PEELED to wonder if we are gradually going
back to the garb of our first parents in the
garden of Eden.
Clothes so tight as to display every line
of the figure are more fit behind the foot
lights than on the streets in the light OF
day.
IL the American men are lacking in cour.

The shot, which is fitted on the engine, touches the ramps with a slight impact, and the driver is warned if the section is not clear by means of a disc or whistle The driver may himself stop the train but if he fails to do so, an electrical appartus with which the engine is fitted automatically shuts off steam applies the brakes, and brings the train to a standstill.
 This device was shown to work with perfect success. It was also demon- strated that the driver of a train thus automatically stopped can telephone to the nearest station to get any ob- struction of the hne removed or any defect remedied, and he cannot move the engine until this is done.

NEW COTTON AND
 CORN PEST FOUND
Iron Mountain Agricultural Depart ment Tells How to Destroy
 Foliage Worm.

The Agricultural Deparement of the Iron Mountain is receiving from vari- ous sections of Arkansas, reports of damage being done cotton and corn, by a new pest in the shape of worm which has very recently made it's ap- pearance.
 According to the information glean- ed from the reports of the farmers these worms seem to be dircting their attention mainly to the foliage of the plants and though the damage is not espec ally important says an of ficial of this department, "the best method of control consists in frequent shallow cultivation of the crops.
 "In giving this cultivation the stalks should be shaken and agitated as much as possible, which can be done by attaching long singletree or a stick or piece of brush to a plow so row and. where the worms are shak- en to the ground in this way many of them are killed by the intense heat. Where the damage is severe poisoning should be resorted to-
 "The poisens most commonly used are arsenate of lead and paris green. The best method of using these pois- ons is to dust them on the plants in the following way: Saw piece of plank oi' a pole as long as the rows are wide and attach to each end a small bog made of to thicknesses of cheese cloth filled with poison and let man on horseback take the pole in front of him and pas down the rows at trot. The poison will thus sift through the bag and deposit a fine dust on the foliage.
 Paris green can also be used as a spray and for this purpose is used in the prcbcrtion of eight ounces to fifty gallons of water These poisons are effective of cource only against in- sects that prey on the plant foliage
