SHEEP LOSSES TO BE HEAVY
Severe Weather is Playing Havoc
with Wyoming Sheep Men.
FEED OF ALL KINDS IS SCARCE
Little Hay is Put Up and sheep
Have slim Picking on the Sage
Brush Which sticks Out
of the snow.

The severe weather, which has been ac-
companied by heavy snowfalls all over
wyoming, is playing havoc with the
flockmasters of that state. Railroad ad-
vices received in Omaha are to the ef-
tect that the losses of the Wyoming
sheepmen will be unusually heavy, even
II Chinook wind should sweep over the
state now and melt the snow.
In many localities, especially in the
sheep raising districts, the reports are
that last year the flockmas.ers failed, or
were unable to secure the normal supply
of hay. Snowfalls came earlier than
usual and as a result the supply of hay
was soon exhausted. Then came the
hard storms of last week and the ranges
were buried under a foot to eighteen
inches of snow AS a result the sheep
were unable 10 Craze upon the winter
range and consequently the losses to
many of the flocks have already been
large and are consequently growing.
All Of the roads penetrating the sheep
raising country of Wyoming are shipping
in large quantities of hay and grain, but
at many points 1t will arrive too late to
save the flocks.
Near Moorcroft the ranchmen have
rigged up large boxes on sleighs and are
bringing the sheep into the ranches as
last as possible, many herds having
been caught in the mountain ranges by
the storm.

FROZEN HEARTS THAW OUT
Proud Couple Reconciled by Warmth
of Holiday Spirit.
REUNITED AFTER SEPARATION
MIR. and Mrs. Frank EbelinE, Di-
vOrced. Come to Omaha from
Grand junction and Are
Married by Leslie.

Warmth of the Christmas spirit melted
the chilled hearts of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Iibelng, divorced, of Grand Junction, la.
The result was their remarriage by
County Judge Leslie today.
Mr.. and Mrs. l1beling were married
three years ago. Last March they de-
cided they were mismated They had
frequent quarrels and divorce followed.
Each lived separate life, though they
resided in the same town. Yet Mrs.
Ebeling's heart would respond to the
love of no other man. She had many
wooers, for now she is only %, Ebeling
tried going" with other girls. They
bored him. Both were proud and all
the time the two natures were strug-
Cling to hold their own against the two
loving hearts. Mrs. Ebeling did not want
to admit that she had been In the wrong
and that she still loved her former hus-
band; no more did Ebeling.
Everyone Was Happy.
Christmas drew near. The spirit of love
was, in the air Everyone seemed happy,
everyone was-except Mr., and Mrs. Ebel-
ing. People were hurrying about the
streets laden with packages, their eyes
sparkling with the Joy of anticipation OF
pleasure.
The Saturday before Christmas Ebeling
purchased the handsomest gold locket nc
could find. II was for Edith. On the
Sunday before Christmas Edith wrapped
up a pair OF handsomely embroidered
house slippers. She had worked a month
on them. Santa Claus did the rest.
There was too much joy on both the
parts of the Ebeiings and the parts Of
their friends to permit their departure
from Grand junction at once. so they
postponed their little trip until after New
Years.

A new kind Of embroidery is the
rage for smart street or house gowns.
It is done with ribousine, which is like
the gimp used In old-fashioned mourn
ing fringes, but can now be bought BY
the yard and in any color to be drawn
into many turnings by the deft en-
broiderer. The stitch most in vogue
is the Russian cross-stitch, like the
old sampler cross-stitch, somewhat.

more expression to the design. 1t Is
especially good on cloth, and as IT lies
perfectly nat, has taken the place of
elaborate braiding. II may also be
used in combination with nat silk
braid, a plain one being preferable.
The braid outlines the embroidered de.
sign and must match both cloth and

GLOVES THAT CAN BE WASHED
Preparation Guaranteed to Cleanse
Channels and Doeskln u Not
Too Badly Soiled.

Ducks foot yellow is the accepted
color in glove wear for the morning
and is worn irrespective Of match"
with the gray whipcord and eponge
coat and skirt costumes that are
issuing now from the smartest tall
ors.
Doeskin and channels gloves Of wash
able propensities are models liked by
man. women, and are procurable In
all lengths from the one or two but
tons or mound snaps to the Is button
length.
A recipe that Is said to be good for
washing chamois and doeskin gloves
is as follows: Make a good lather
with soap powder or jelly and tepid
water, and add a tablespoonful OF
ammonia to each quart Of water. The
gloves should then be put into a
basin and be left to soak for about a
quarter of an hour. They should be
squeezed and pressed with the hands,
but on no account wrung.
Rinse in fresh tepid water, to
which q few drops Of ammonia have
been added, then press in clean
towel and pull into shape. After this
hang them in the air or near an open
window until dry.

There are laces that are very sub
stantial, as well as those which are al
most too delicate to use. This Is the
day Of laces and the fashionable varie-
ties are seen OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES,
coats and hats, whether for the prom
enade or indoor wear, are bedecked
with lace. They are usually applied
fiat to another fabric. But the lighter
varieties, such as val, point de esprit,
mechlin, ETC., are worn in narrow
plaitings and ruffles. There is fu-
rore for cluny, especially in lingerie
gowns and hats, and on undermuslins.
And there are many heavy novelty
laces for coats and gowns and for
hats, that look we'll placed on those
substantial garments made for daily
wear. Therefore street hats, even Of
the most mannish outlines, are fitting
ly banded with graceful lace patterns.
The two hats shown here are excel
lent examples Of the way In which ma
line and lace are used in the hands Of
the artist in millinery.
