 The horse served the colonel through the war, though be never got nearer to battle than Tampa, being left be- hind when the soldiers crossed over without mounts. Later on their re- turn Texas was sent to Montauk Point; and still later on to Phoenix The colonel has used him as d riding and driving horse ever since and during his incumbency as command ing officer of the national guard, Texas became widely known among the men of the regiment He was probably the best known horse in the territory. outside of racing stock He has been at the Alkire ranch this winter and has not been well for a long time, but was seemingly in his usual condition until Wednesday morning, when he lay down in the corral and died quite suddenly

ADOPT ENGLISH IDEAS
NEW SCHEME or TABLE DECoRA
TONS IN FAVOR.
Immense Centerpiece No Longer
Used-smalIer Particles, In One
Color Scheme, Now Accepted
az the Proper Thing.

The English idea Of decorating q
walls now instead Of the American
method The latter was always Great
ing discomfort because Il consisted
OF a high spreading centerpiece which
kept all the people on one side Of the
table from seeing the people on the
other.
The English idea 10 to separate the
decoration into small particles. none
OF them high, and all carrying out one
color scheme. This Is not only at
tractive TO the eye in an artistic
sense, but It is helpful to the eye be-
cause ones vision Is not always
blocked by flowers. And no matter
how splendid may be the blossoms
that intercept your glances at some
one else. they are a nuisance.
Several years ago We adopted the
method OF placing small crystal or sill
yer vases in wide circle on the Ia.
Bile surrounding n basket OF fruit or
a.mound Of flowers The small vases
were filled with small blossoms. One
especially lovely decoration was a
mingling of fuchsias with pink rose
buds and small ferns surrounding a
centerpiece Of loose pink roses with
ferns beddod in large mound sur.
rounded by n silver fender
Another decoration was OF lilies OF
the valley with purple hyacinths. and
n mass Of the latter in the middle in,
terHpersed with pink roses. Sets OF
vRees both in silver and crystal were
offered at the shops for this kind OF
table decoration. and now the newest
Offering is a series OF cut glass bowls
almost vaselike in shape, the large
one IN the center and six small ones
attached TO II by ornamental chains
OF heavy crystal balls and loops.
The chains are pulled rather tau,
from the middle ball and n bed OF
ferns Is laid under them.
From the small bowls which hold
the small flowers are lighter glass
chains which you run out TO squat
glass candlesticks which are too low
even with the candles in them TO an

sparkling crystal is really lovely and
contributes immensely 10 the attrac

New Mesh BAGS.

Attractive as we'll as convenient is
the new mesh bag upon tho outside OF
which Is hung a purse made of gold
or silver TO match the mesh. The
purse Is not mesh one but is made OF
slabs OF the precious metal. with a So
cret snap, so that It's owner, II she can
keep the secret OF the fastening, can
also feel assured that her money is
safe.
Since large bags became fashionable
the small purse that can be found
easily has been necessity, and. in
some cases, is slung inside the bag
The point of having II fixed. either
outside or In. is obvious. for II is trou-
blesome to search in the vastness Of
a large bag when money is required
all in hurry, without disturbing the
rest OF the contents.

WHEN IS A EVE DOING WELL?
General sprlshtliness and Behavior OF
Animal Are Good indication Of
General Condition.

II sometimes puzzles the sheep grow
or. especially the beginner. To know
when his ewes are doing well. Many
a man IL SO anxious that they do well
that he overdoes the matter while OF
course, there are those whose ewes
do not do well enough.
II Is impossible 10 gauge n ewes
we'll being by the number OF pounds
she Is gaining. yet this Ia one OF the
first indices OF her condition and tho
one most commonly adopted by sheep
growers. In general a eve ought to
be gaining about six pounds n month.
II she was uncommonly thin to begin
with she should be gaining even more.
while II she was fat. she ought to be
gaining a pound or two less.
To be In good condition n eve ought
also TO be enjoying an easy and thor
ough digestion and an active circula-
ton OF blood. These things depend In
part on the amount OF exercise given
her also. A pregnant eve ought to be
given some succulent food which helps
to keep her digestion In good order
and her feed should contain goodly
portion OF the protein elements which
are necessary in tissue building and
in the growth of the foetus She ought
10 have plenty OF exercise every day
as this keeps the muscles OF her d.
gestive apparatus in good play and
her circulation active.
A eve is doing we'll when she Is
making a fair steady gain, and when
all her organs are functioning proper
ly. and when her appetite seems keen
Her general sprightliness and behav
Tor are good Indication OF her feel
ings. A eve that is dull and dumpish
Is usually ailng in some way. Often.
times II is only too much feed and too
little exercise that is accountable for
this condition, however.
