 This is a very pretty fashion and if earrings are becoming to you they look exceedingly well dropping from under the loosely banded hair. The young girl can wear her hair in more or less disarray without looking witc11-1ike, but if you are over thirty be very careful that there are no straggly locks floating out from your temples or from back of your ears. Loose hair about the face is softening

The most beautiful women have been those who have used a hair dressing that was individual to them selves.
 Only once in a while do you see a. girl whose features are so perfect and skin so lovely that she can wear her hair in any old way and still retain the charm of individuality. Such a girl has enough personality to make each new coifure, seem her own con- ception.

change them; therefore, the next best thing is simply to let things go. You ought never to attempt to clean house, or do things of that kind while in your condition. Now, you should ob- serve the instructions given you and then try and cheer up. You say that you have not laughed in years. Do you think it is any wonder that your stomach gets sour, when your mind is sour all the time? If you don't see anything else to laugh at that is fun ny, just laugh at yourself. Make fun of yourself for allowing matters to de- press you. This is great big world, and Nature is smiling all over just now. The flowers are trying their best to look pretty, and everything is a great big laugh. Now, you help all you can. Don't imagine that your house must be immaculate and kept perfectly clean. Those beautiful flow CTS out in the yard came up through an awful lot of dirt, and they are just as sweet and clean as>they can be. II don't mean by this that you should go out and plant yourself where the roots of the flowers are, but just take a. lesson from them and realize that you can be bright and cheerful and exha1e an odor of good cheer for oth- CTS, no matter what your surround ings may be. If you do as have told you, you are going to win out and get well. Now please keep at it.
 Dear Doctor You have said at various times in the Club notes that if any of the members found out any new remedies that you would be glad to learn of them. I know of one which have never mentioned. A friend of mine told me about her ex- perience with her tape worm. She was ailing for some time, but had no idea what the trouble was. She lived on a farm and the medicine they usually gave the horses was an infu- sion of Yarrow which grew plentifully in the neighborhood. She thought if it was good for horses 1t might help it for two three days, and was greatly shocked when she found that she had passed a great long worm. She was all right shortly after that.
 MRS. M. J. M.
 Dear Doctor: I have read with in terest your lectures and have gained considerable help thereby. Some time ago a lady was asking for 8 remedy for hives. I would not say positively, | but would not be surprised if she is bothered with chiggers, of chigoe, a minute insect that bores a hole in the skin, causing an itching and fes- tering sore do not know of any | thing to prevent them. but carbolic acid salve is a good remedy for the | itching sensation which they cause.
 It is barely possible that the trou- bIe is chiggers, and if such is the case a simple home treatment is to apply well saIted butter. Carbolated vaseline is also good. Your sugges- l ton of carbolic acid salve used mod erately is excellent. The part of your letter relating to your suffering being | of a. personal nature, it has been an swered in a personal letter.

SMITH HOME BURGLARdzED.

The home of William S. Smith on Ho1lister Heights was broken into by burglars yesterday afternoon while Mir and Mrs. Smith were both away, and valuab bles amounting to nearly $500 stolen. Entrance into the house was gained through a window at the rear and the wonder is that some one did not see the guilty parties as they were getting into the house or when they were coming out. The burglary took place in broad daylight showing that the burglars whoever they were, were bold ones. The stolen articles include two diamond rings valued a $1O0 each, a diamond brooch valued at $50, a ruby set ring valued at $50, suit of clothes valued at $40, a Pana- ma hat, $20 in cash, some ostrich plumes and number of other articles of value. The robbery was not dis covered until Mrs Smith returned home from the theatre around 5 o'clock in the afternoon.

 WHEAT TO DO: Part 1-Yes, and how to do it. I presume many of you will want to swat me for discussing the same old subject of the fly, the typhoid fly, but I would have a big job if in turn I was to swat every one of you that have read and ap- proved of what have told you about the fly and done absolutely nothing to prevent it's breeding.
 Now, it is a fact which you cannot reasonable dispute. that if your horses and COWS were free from the cruel bother of flies during the entire sum mer, they would be able to render you greater service and be in better con dition in the fall. Isn't that so. Put ting it on a purely cash basis regard less of the health or lives of your fam fly and it would pay you and all of your neighbors to prevent the fly from breeding. But looking at the matter of only one case of typhoid fever In your family in five years and from that standpoint alone it would pay to eliminate the flies from your prem ises.,
 Impossible? Not a bit of it. If you have lots of stock around your barns then you must have lots of land and should have a manure spreader. There is always some field or pasture where IL can DS SpT6dQ dL ally LA11C, anu IIO land is better and the value of the manure is greater if spread while fresh. Just a short bit of time every morning and you have finished a job that must be done at some season and why not now? Keep the barns clean and the manure scattered out on the fields, where it does good instead 'of harm and the flies cannot find breed ing places except around a filthy back door, the slop barrel, garbage can or the hog pen.
 If the flies swarm around your back door and breed in dirty mess where kitchen slops are thrown, then I must say that neither you nor your house keeper are clean. Yes, I know I am far enough away to be safe, but after you get your place into a sanitary condition, just come over and take breakfast with me on the back porch.

FAST PERISHING RACE.

Plans have been made by the Pro-
testant churches of, Australia for the
evangelization of all aborigines of that
territory. Like North America, the
continent of Australia is both great
hcme missionary field and is the home
base for many foreign missionary So
cieties. The churches of Australia are
especially active in the surrounding
islands, and some of them carry the
gospel to China, India and Korea.
The whole aboriginal problem has
been recently considered from a na-
tional standpoint by the Protestant
churches of Australia. The entire
territory inhabited by the aborigines
has been apportioned for missionary
work to the various denominations.
Our denomination is endeavoring 20
establish a station on Warrington is
land in the Gulf of Carpentaria, and
near Broome in the northwest.
Western Australia proGGceE more
gold than any American state, sends
more pearls to Europe than any other
country except Ceylon and is said TO
have. the richest belt Of hardwood
timber in the world.

Missouri Sets Good Example for POul.
try Raisers in Other States.
Missouri has set a splendid example
for all other states to follow in the
matter of poultry education work.
During a period OF two weeks in Sep
tember the Missouri Poultry Exposl-
ton station established record for
activity by conducting nine poultry
field meetings, each in a different Sec
ton of the state, which the aggregate
attendance reached ftTly 28,00U
Each meeting was held in corjunc
ton with the local commercial clul
and the local poultry Association q
each town. In this way the peoph
were made TO feel that the success OF
their field meeting devolved very
! largely upon them, and to this feeling
| OF responsibility much Of the SUCCESS
was really due For several weeks
before the meetings thorough ad-
| vertising campaign was carried On
with the aid of local papers, posters
and store windows,
One day poultry shows were held.
and other features were band concerts
| and big picnic dinners that helped 10
bring the crowd together early. The
state Poultry Board offered casn
| prizes for the best and second best
! pens of Plymouth Rocks, WyandotteS
and Rhode Island Reds hatched in 1913
and for best pen in Mediterranean.
! English and Asiatic classes. Birds
thus shown were used each day to i'll
lustrate lecture on Selecting Birds
for Breeding Purposes A very
i.creditable showing was made at eeacn
town, and many people who had rails
ed scrubs, after looking over the pou4-
try show and listening to the lectures,
went away determined to get started
with pure breds at the earliest poss1-
BILE moment
| Perhaps the most attractive featurS
of all was the reel of poultry moving
pictures shown every evening. The
/ use of those pictures marked the be-
| ginning of a new epoch in poultry
| educational work.
Some of the most prominent poultry
officials in the country were among
| the lectures.
