a IMPLE gowns are made from silk
N as well as from wool this season,
and it is quite correct to make
charmeuse or moire, poplin or any SIM
liar fabric into a gown of simple lines
designed for simple occasions. AS silk
is always lovely with trimming of vel
vet, effects are unusually handsome and
unusually easy to obtain. A great many
of these weaves are found in combined
silk and wool threads also, and the
wool popln is as smart as the silk pop
lin. Silk serge is used as well as wool
serge.
Chiffon broadcloth is liked, too, for
indoor gowns, and it is always beauti-
full. 1t is especially handsome in GER
tain colors, and copper with trimming

GUS, but because he succeeds it does not
follow that the unframed eye should
follow in his wake. Often the slight
difference in shades makes all the diff
ference between success and failure.
Frequently there is much study given
before such an effect is produced.
We all know how beautiful the green
of the moss is on the brown of the tree
trunk, and not a few of these great de-
signers go to Nature for suggestions. 1t
too often happens that their followers
forget the models and remember only
the two tints, missing the essential
point and putting together shades that
are not designed one for the other.

quisite treated in the same way. Chem
isettes of white or cream lace give re-
lief, and are much in use Women who
are seeking costume that can be worn
for any simple occasion, within doors
or On the street with long coat, will
find nothing better than broadcloth or
poplin treated in such way.
Every variety of the fiat collar that
rolls away from the throat is fashion
able. A great many dressmakers rec
ommend the making of such gowns
with separate chemisettes, for they can
then be worn with or without as oc-
casion requires. The open neck is
often desirable within doors, while the
chemisette is really necessary to good
effect upon the street.
Some of the velvets and corduroys

they, too, are desirable for the indoor
costume, and they are always pretty,
especially desirable for young girls and
small women to whom youthful styles
are becoming. Nut brown is exceed
ingly fashionable and is peculiarly
handsome in corduroy.
A lovely effect could be obtained by
trimming with broadcloth in cham
, pagne color, for broadcloth on the cor
duroy background is extremely beau
tiful.
We look for contrasts this season
almost inevitably, and contrasts can be
so handled as to be brilliantly success

color effects, and the attempt to copy
exceptional combinations. The artist

They saved His Life.

Does 1t pay to stop your motor car
after an accident and go back to see
what has happened? Two young mo-
torists on the south side believe It
does.
With q green chauffeur these two
boys were trying out a new model
touring car. They were sitting in the
back seat when the greenhorn at the
steering wheel gave it a twist and
came within an ace of hitting an old
man at a crossing. The victim was
so shocked that he fell to the pave

Looking back. the motorists decided
that things looked bad, but that they
had better go back and see whether
the old party was killed. Finding him
all right, but winded. they took him

pleasant did they make 1t for him that

Plum trees need SOME spraying,
usually on about the same lines as
the work given to the apple orchard.
Spraying should be- given annually.
usually two to four times each year,
and in all cases must be thorough to
be worth while. Careless spraying is,
a waste of time and material. When
the San Jose scale is to be treated,
the lime-sulphur spray will be given
early In the spring. Al heavy spray
ing Of Bordeaux mixture or of plain
blue vitriol solution before the buds
open will aid in checking brown rot
and other diseases. Another spraying
Of Bordeaux mixture. with arsenical
poison added. should be given soon
after the blossoms fail. It should be
specially noted In this connection that
Bordeaux mixture should be only half
strength for plum trees. Some varie-
ties, especially those of the Japanese
group, have the foliage seriously In
jured by strong Bordeaux. Perhaps
the best formula for this work is as
follows: Fresh unslaked lime, three
pounds; copper sulphate, two pounds;
water, fifty gallons.
The mixture is then made up in the
usual way, and applied with a nozzle
throwing fine, misty spray.

HORTICULTURAL
Azr..saM NOTES

Gather all the brush from the or.
chaEd and burn 1t.
Trees injured by freezing very often
need to be severely cut back.
The appearance Of the orchard IS
helped by clearing it of dead branches.
Keep the orchard land in good filth.
The trees can be set as soon as the
leaves fall.
Gooseberries require cool situa-
ton, with plenty OF air and moisture,
and should be partially shaded
AS soon as caterpillar nests are in
evidence, burn them without delay
before new colonies are formed.
Good fruit can be raised only with
care and attention given to spraying,
pruning and generally good care.
Gather up dead branches and burn
them, as they are apt to harbor bark
beetles, one of the worst orchard pests.
Blackberries should be given space
in the garden. for there are few, If
any. fruits that give quicker and bet
ter returns.
A yearling tree is preferred by
many to older trees. They are
thought to be safer to transplant than
two-year trees.
Plant a cover crop in the orchard.
Rye, barley, wheat and oats are good
non-leguminous plants. but the le-
gumes are better. 4
Don't expose the roots to the hot
sun and drying Nlpd. Keep them in
puddle" until the moment you are
ready to plant them.
If some Of the trees are girdled but
partially. they may be doctored sue
cessfully by using paste made OF
clay and COW manure.

NATION SAVED BY A SPIDER


Scotland has many legends that the
sheepherders and highland peasants
never get tired repeating. A long time
ago King Bruce ruled over Scotland
before that country became part Of
England, and he learned lesson from
q spider that enabled him to succeed
when otherwise he would have failed.
King Bruce had lost many battles.
He was discouraged. He had made
his final effort against his enemies
and failed to vanquish them. Deep III
despair he went to a lonely room in
his castle. Reclining on the couch
and thinking, he happened to notice
spider drop from the ceiling on .
single silken cord He watched the
spider fascinatingly. It now began its
ascent. It slipped. Time and time
again 1t tried to mount, but each time
1t failed. The king watched intently,
forgetful of all else An hour passed.
Finally the spider succeeded. It was
an inspiration for King Bruce. Why
should he get discouraged. having
tried only few times and failed? He
made one last grand rally against his
enemies and routed them, and from
this incident came the old saying, If
at first you don't succeed try again"

them with determination. An effec-
tive method Of combating them is to
use sweet and poisoned bran, says
the Prairie Farmer. The method is
to add one part of Paris green, by
weight, to thirty or forty parts Of
bran, stir this together, while yet dry,
and then mixing it with water that
has been sweetened by the addition Of
strong or coarse molasses. The old
er and stronger the molasses, to give
1t color, the better it will be.
The bran should be moistened with
this sweetened water until it is made
into a damp mass, just wet enough
to stay in little heaps. a. very small
pinch Of this placed at the base Of
each garden plant to protect it will
be effectual. The cut-worms will eat
It in preference to the plant.
To protect corn it is advisable to
drop o pinch in the corn row each
step or two across the field, SO that
the worm will find this and eat 1t and
let the corn remain. It would be bet
ter to put the poison out before the
corn appears above ground and thus
! kill the worms early, than to let them
remain untreated until after the corn

It is much better to put out the

DIsFIGURING ECZEMA CURED

my nephew first showed signs Of
eczema on the middle finger, and it
came out like blister. He must have
rubbed his face with that hand. az it
then broke out on his nose the same
way. When the blisters broke, they
shrivelled up and formed scabs. His
nose was covered with scabs, and 1t
was very itchy. He was badly dis
figured with unsightly scabs. At first,
his nose was sore. and it gradually
became worse so his mother took him
to the doctor. He told her to rub the
scabs on every day, and anoint the
affected part with the medicine he
gave her.

GRATING OLD GRAPE VINES

IN reply to query as to whether
an old grape vine, trained as shown
in the Illustration, can be successfully
grated, F. E. Gladwin Of the Geneva,
N. Y, experiment station, writes in
the Rural New Yorker as follows:
Il should say from your diagram
that the vine in question is trained to
the horizontal arm spur system and
that you desire to graft the numerous
spurs along the arms. It is very
doubtful that you can be successful,
