OF Interest to Or Wome,
WHAT THE MArRoN WILL WEAR.

Velvet, lace and fur are the mate
rails in which many OF the seasons
smartest toilets are developed for
the matron. The velyets in pretty
neutral colorings are plain. the fur
being used as edgings on the skirt
hens and sleeves, while the lace Is
used of softening the bodices at the
throat,
Some Of the most successful
dresses for the matron are In gray
velvet, with bodices Of gray chiffon
over white lace, and the long coats
of velvet have touches Of fur on the
edges and large fur collars and re.
yers. The lace in some cases is dyed
gray, and it drapes the skirt in simu-
lated peplum style. being hidden
when the coat Of velvet Is worn.
A fayorite combination in materials
for the matron is panne and satin.
Satin is used for the bodice and up
per part of the skirt. while panne
forms the deep hem and Is used for
the cloak which accompanies the
dress. Sometimes the waist on the
day gown is touched with little del
icate embroidery, but 1t is in the even
ing frpcks that ornamentation makes
it appear more fully.
In tailor mades for the woman OF
middle age there are smart designs
arranged in cloth or fine navy serge.
They are long and semi-fitting, or
short with straight collars touched
with velvet and finished with narrow
lines of color. Blue, for instance. has
line Of dull cerise on the edge OF
the collar, and emerald is used with
good effect in the same way.

HABITS OF RABBITS.

German natural historical period
icals are calling attention to an In
teresting change in the habits Of wild
rabbits, especially In the western
parts of Germany, as. for instance,
Westfalen. The animals in question,
says the Scientific American, are CIV
ing up their ancient habit Of burrow-
ing, and have commenced In great
part to initiate the hares, which, as Is
we'll known, nest only above ground.
The hares themselves were once bur-
rowers. and gradually went through
the same change In habits in this par
ticular that appears to characterize
the rabbits at the present day-at any
rate, in Germany. In woods where
the underground is thick. and which
are therefore especially suitable to
the rabbits, they find hiding places In
plenty for their nests: and even ~
open country. unwooded land the raD-
bits seem to be taking more and more
to the open-they take refuge in
board piles. brick kilns, drain pipes
and bitches that are overgroWn with
weeds The female makes little fort
resses for her young, to protect them
from the cannibalistic propensities OF
the male; she lines the nest warmly
with fur from her own breast. visits
them secretly at night, and perhaps
suckles them once or more during the
"a hours; but each time that she
leaves them she carefully piles rub
Dish before the opening which leads
to her defenseless family, and detues
the distractions with ordure.

FIGHTING Forest FIRES.

An old fire department ladder truck
which had been discarded by the de-
partment of Natick, Mass, has been
turned into an apparatus for fighting
forest fires, and its operation has been
attended with considerable success.
The ladders were removed and re-
placed with tanks for carrying water.
Over these seats for ten men have
been placed, and there are also provi-
sions for carrying buckets, brooms.
portable extinguishers and similar es-
sentials. Another novelty of this char
acter is to be witnessed at Springfield.
Mass, where a three-horse team on
a water tower has been displaced and
the places Of the animals taken by
tractor. which is powerful motor.
The front wheels Of the tower have
been removed, and without any furth-
er alienation or changes the front
end OF the apparatus secured to the
tractor In order to effect short turns
the front wheels Of the tractor are
mounted SO close together that the
two have the appearance of single
heavy wheel.

PROFIT IN BEES.

A person can begin with one swarm
OF bees and in a few years have fifty.
The hive, supers and other things cost
about So for each swarm. AS single
stand has been known to put up over
60 pounds of honey in a season. which
sells at 10 cents a pound, 1t can be
seen that bees are certainly profitable.
They can pay roo per cent. profit the
first year and vastly more than that
In succeeding years, always providing
of course, that the season Is all right,
which, unfortunately, is not always
the, case in this arid region. No mis-
take however, can be made by getting
4 start with bees. Besides being prof
table, they are beneficial to fruit
trees. and there is no heavy work In
taking care Of them. a good liVingt
can usually be made from a very few
stands. It is doubtful If any other
thing will pay SO well for the time
snent and the investment, but It al
depends on the season.-Denver Field
