SHORTAGE OF SADDLE MAKERS.

London-There is n shortage of sad
die makers in this city. the colonies and
on the continent. Recently an effort
was made by manufacturer from Paris
to secure six additional men in this city
He was unable to find single man.
The scarcity is due TO the fact that boys
have not been put to the trade. a condi-
tion of affairs for which the manufac-
turers are party responsible. Fear of
the growing automobile trade has had
its effect. but 1t is not likely that the
riding saddle industry will suffer

White Millinery.

The white hat for the winter will make
its appearance in felt whatever the
weather may be like. according to a well
known millner. and it's trimmings, like the
shape itself, will be dead white, with d
small touch of color under the brim. In
shape the all-white hat will resemble the
Spanish sailor. but there will be all kinds
of variations of the brim, the trimmings
consisting mainly of ribbon or perky look
ing feathers.
White plush is to be another winter
ia brio for hats of the smaller variety, and
vivid little notes of color will be intro
duced in the trimming schemes. Already

Hints to the Hostess.

A girl famous among her friends for
original entertainments gave a recipe
party the other evening
Most of the girls lived at home, and So
were Interested in household affairs.
Three or four taught school. and one
gave music lessons. but even these busy
people liked to cook occasionally-on the
chatting dish at any rate.
Each guest was asked to bring two ia
vorite recipes. and she was cautioned
not to compare notes with any other girl
or to divulge the nature Of her own con-
tribution.
When the girls had all arrived and had
had a cozy chat about the open fire in
the living room, they were invited into
the kitchen. Chairs were ranged around
the long table-made longer for the occa-
sion-and little pad and pencil lay at
each place.
Each girl in turn read recipe aloud,
being careful not to announce what it
was. From the ingredients mentioned
and the directions for making the others
were to guess what her concocti0n would
be.
No restrictions We're imposed as to the
kinds of recipes to be presented. so the
girls were at liberty to offer their favor
ite cakes. mufiins, preserves, puddings.
chatting dish delicacies or candies.
One guest who had the reputation of be-
ing a good writer and a rapid one was
asked to write the recipes in little book.
This was a homemade affair consisting
Of sheets of water color paper, the covers
and occasional pages being daintily and
appropriately decorated.
When the last of the recipes had been
read lists We're compared and corrected.
The girl who guessed correctly the great
est number was given the little cook book
as prize.

LITTLE JOURNEYS INTO
THE FASHION LAND

| Will there ever again be a best frock?
| Our little girls have such things, but
when We ourselves were small the ward
robes of our mammas held the best frock
| enshrined as their special treasure Quite
possibly it was black silk-a few dec

| the black silk. At one time there was
| heavy run on purple satin. and claret
color or black velvet was considered
| very ladylike.
| Fashions changed then, as now. but
frocks seemed to be more adaptable,
there were frills and fiounces and gimps
and draperies that were detachaoie.
there were mysterious things called cores
that could be let in and out at will. and
| the variety of alterations possible kept
| the dress ''in the fashion" year after
year. The material, of course, was ever
| lasting In its wear and the black SILK
and sa tins sold then not only turned, but
re- turned. that they might give full value.
! And while it lasted the best frock OF
| silk fulfilled every conceivable function OF
| state. and on a very fine sunday or Tor d
christening it even rustled into church,
! or it would appear before the altar cloth

was worn by the bride herself, and was

sometimes a mistress would even present

| petuity of a maid servant contemplating

Latest American Fashions
BY CORA MOORE.

Everybody is happy over the fact that
| fashion is permitting such a free use of
velvet. No fabric is more becoming nor
| is there any that Is more satisfactory
| to work with The model here introduced
! is of amethyst, with dull steel buttons.
The skirt Is draped in such a way as
| to suggest a separate tunic. 1t is in two
! straight sections, each a single width OF
velvet. One piece then answers for the
| right side and is mounted first. 1t is
| started at little to the left of the center
front and swung across the right side
| to finish in a straight edge at the left
back. while the other, started at the
| center back. is mounted with barely
what fullness is absolutely necessary. 1t
! is swung around the front to finish at
| the center back, where three upturned
| place by the straight edge of the other
| section.
| The buttons are sewed to the edge of
the Overlapping section. and the festoon-
| ing fold resulting from the tucks is pull
| ed down SO that one is like the other
and SO that all occur between the hip
| and the knee line. The two points of the
| train are the result of the crossing of
| the two separate breadths.
| The blouse is cut out to the bust line
and filled in with cream-colored satin.
Otherwise, except for the roll back cuffs
that are also of the satin, and the line
of buttons down from the left shoulder,
it is quite plain.
| AS another variation of the model
under discussion green and blue might
be used to wonderful advantage The
green Is one of the sage tones. or even
a brighter. more lively grass shade,
would be then substituted for the white
with the VOiIe for the tunic and over
blouse of periwinkle blue, with the band
ing still of the fox and silver. the latter
preferably this time of deeply tarnsh-
ed hue.
Another suggestion would have the
model developed in cloth. say serge,
with the skirt made a trifle shorter, but
still touching in much the same manner
as the satin Of the original dress and
the tunic and blouse of the same ma
terial, with the banding of contrasting
colors applied to the outside. The but
tons and braid points would then be of

Dressing the Children.

There is a slight tendency in the direc-
ton Of overdressing children just now
Every now and then this tendency arises
only to be anIihilated by the fact that
there are few women so silly that they
will overdress their children. whatever
they may do themselves. Children are
not independent of fashion, but certainly
they are not dependent on II.
Real torture may be inflicted on sensi-
tive child by dressing her in out of date
and clumsy garments when all her school
fellows are daintily clothed. But what are
wanted are not up-to-date things, but
simple and pretty things:
The rise OF the knitted coat for adults
has led directly to the use or knitted suits
for children. They are very comfortable.
very warm. and as durable as anything
can be that is submitted to the extreme
chances OF q child's play For very small

Lingerie NeckWear.

As for cravats and jabots and collars
carried out in muslin and lawn and chif-
fon and lace. their forms and variety are
endless, while their prices vary from
a half to several dollars. Real lace. of
course, is the ideal trimming for these
trifles, and can be disposed in endless
ways on them. SO that stored -oddments
can all be utilized. Several sorts of lace
can also be used together fashionable
notion being to have a flowing jabot of
shadow or cobweb or maline lace edged
with Irish crochet, or crochet edged with
fine maline valenciennes edged with
Buckingham and so forth.

On Envy.
By Ruth Cameron.

There are some people in the world
who seem to feel positively insulted at
other folks good fortune.
A young girl who had had rather
hard fight to make her way. finally made
a big success In her work. and on top of
that met, fell in love with and married
one OF the wealthiest and most desra BILE
young bachelors in the city.
They have just returned from an eX-
tended welding trip abroad and are plan
ming to build a beautiful home in the
prettiest part of the town. so naturally
every one in the neighborhood is talking
about her good fortune. Among the rest
the mother Of one of the unmarried girls
in her set was discussing the lucky lady.
WELL. she said, Jane is pretty and
stylish and makes good appearance in
company. but she certainly has an awful
temper. They say Ii was nothing but a
case of temper that separated her older
sister and her husband. 'Desertion was
named as the grounds for divorce. but
every one says he deserted her because
he simply couldn't stand her temper.
Well" with a mournful sigh, II hope
they'll be happy
OF course. you know her type. so of
course you can imagine just how she
contradicted the sense of her last state
ment Dy nef mOurnI0l emphasis on
''hope." She didn't want them to be
happy. and she couldn't help showing it.
She was a victim of virulent attack
of one of the most common of human dis
eases-the green sickness of envy.
Pride says the poet; is the last in
trinity of noble minds. Undoubtedly
envy must be the next to last.
1t may be because of my peculiarly
ugly disposition, but the part of me that
feels envy is just about the hardest cta
Danish all outward show of it. ] may
go about proclaiming my rivals good for
tune and praising him or her. but the
instructive surge of envy. the instructive
wish to find some flaw in the good for
tune that l should have liked for myself
is still there. l could more easily make
some tremendous sacrifice for my enemy
or my rival than l could free myself of
that feeling.
Have you never felt for shamed in
slant subconscious feeling of pleasure
when you heard that some piece of i'll
luck had come to that particular person
who had always had all the successes
and the good things that YOU wanted?
Have you never felt a moment of sick
disappointment when you heard of some
croWning success that would place your
rival in some field far above You?
If you have not. you surely have my
most hearty Fluctuations.
But il you have, | know you will make
1t one of your character ambitions-as it
is mne-to teach yourself to be gem
timely pleased whenever you hear of any
ones good fortune and to forget what
envy means.

The party will start home on
the morning of the Goth, leaving
Portland at 7:10 A. M. on special
train provided by the O.-W. R.
& N. Stops will be made at
Hood River, the Dalles, Cello,
Pendleton and Walla Walla. At
Walla Walla the excursionists
will spend the evening of the
10th in connection with the ses-
sion of the South Central Wash
ington Development Association,
after which they leave for home
points, arriving at Lewiston 7:3O
A. M. March 21st.
The railroad fare for the
round trip will be a fare and a
third from all points. AS the
special trains will consist of full
Pullman equipment with dining
and observation cars the travel
ers will have the benefit of
berths from the time they start
till they return. The price of
berths will be SIS for lower and
81 for upper, with the privilege
Of doubling up, if desired, thus
making it cheaper. This will in
clude the use of the cars during
the entire trip, the train being
parked at Portland so that the
excursionists may sleep in their
berths while in the city.
A number of Lewiston ladies
have already signifed their in
tention of joining the party, and
ladies generally are invited.
Passengers from the sections
outside of Lewiston can buy
their tickets and make sleeping
car reservations of their local
railway agents.
Great interest is being mani
tested in this excursion and the
prospects are that it will be the
largest event of it's kind ever
pulled off in this section of the
Northwest. 1t will be an occa-
sion for effective publicity for
the eight counties embraced in
the Development League, and
also for practical work in the
promotion of one of the greatest
industries of the Pacific North
west, namely the Live Stock in
dustry.

with good results. Corn may be fed.
but since it is quite fattening the
amount should be very small. Care
should be taken that TOO much of the
protein rich feeds. such as clover, al
falfa or bran. is not fed. They tend
to produce lambs that are too large at
birth or that have more bone develop
ment than is desired.
In addition to receiving proper ra-
ton dry quarters are necessary If the
ewes are to go through the winter as
they should. Too warm quarters may
be possible. Ordinarily one thickness
of we'll matched inch boards is all
that is needed on "A sheep barn. The
cracks should be battened. however as
drafts are very undesirab Bile. Proper
ventilation and sunlight should be
kept in mind. The sheep should have

from winds and storms. as exercise is
required if they are to keep in good
condition. AS to space required. from
ten to fifteen square feet will be am
pie for each eve. From one and one
half to two feet of running space
should be allowed at the feed rack.

PREVENTION OF
DISEASE IN HOGS.

For many years we were somewhat
in the dark as to the cause OF disease
in swine. Science, however, has Civ
en- us much light on this subject. 1t is
now very generally understood that
most forms OF disease are due to a
germ which can be very readily trans
ferred from place to place. Since this
is the basis of large amount OF the
trouble we can readily see the i'm
portance of using every precaution pos
sible to keep the animals In a cleaniy
condition. Most OF these germs or
bacteria thrive and make their great
est growth under filthy conditions.
Scientists claim that most germs can
not withstand sunlight, thus the i'm
portance OF having plenty of sunlight
In the yards and pens which are used
for swine breeding or feeding purposes.
These pens should be thoroughly clean
ed and disinfected very often By fol-

fetal influence on the health OF the ami
