kURIoS FROM CORRESPONDENTS
@. am about to raise poultry, main
ly for exhibition, and must buy my
breeders and wish to secure good re-
suits l am offered line bred birds
and also those from matings, where
new blood is often infused Which
is the better? A. Line bred breeders
insure good results for show. as their
characteristics are stamped on their
progeny. The other is haphazard.
Q. Are White Orpingtons a good
show variety? What is the chief diff
ficulty in breeding them to show
points, color or shape? A. Color. We
have never yet seen pure White
Orpington. Brassiness seems born in
them. This might be prevented by
keeping them always out of the sun
and rain, but that means weak stock.
@. Have you ever seen a hen that
changed into a rooster? A. Occasion
ally an old hens egg cluster dries up,
and then she struts. feathers out.
grows spurs and makes sound some
what like rooster. but it's an awful
poor imitation Of the real thing.
@. Is it necessary to put partitions in
long poultry housesP How many
would you have in building $50 by
II? A. Long buildings are bound to
have drafts. and these are death to
poultry. Two solid partitions.
Q. Is the American Poultry associa-
ton a utility breeders organization?
A. No 1t has been mainly devoted to
the fancy. but recently showed signs
of amendment by appointing com
mittee to draw up utility standard.
Q. What do you suppose is the real
cause of leg weakness In chicks? A.
While too much forcing food will do
this, we believe running on hard sur
faces and sleeping in brooders where
the floor gets hot from the lamp I'M
derneath are chief reasons for the
trouble.
@. What do you consider the worst
enemies of poultry? A. Lice and red
mites If these are fought all the
year round and kept down to a mini
mum or eradicated the flock will be
healthier and profit larger On some
plants the bugs get all the profit and
then some.

NOT so NICE, AFTER ALL

W. OF tNtOE-g ~ A~ht 49,
"I wish were a man. cried she.
'Oh, my, wouldn't that be nice?
would not scare at spiders
Nor scream at ugly mice.
"Pd throw away this old false hair
And get my hair cut short.
I'd fire skirts and corsets
And wear suits like a sport.
"Pd smoke nice, big, fat cigar;
I'd have the chance to vote;
I'd bluff and buster. join the lodge
And ride the bilygoat."
That night she dreamt she was a man.
Oh, what a horrid dreami
She found that men, these lovely men,
Are not just what they seem.
Her lovely hair it all dropped out;
She was an old bald top.
Her bristling whiskers grew and grew.
Oh, would they never stop?
The ice man worried her to death.
The coal man came to dun,
And soon she found that being man
Was not bit of fun.
And then she married to nag.
And, my, she got henpecked!
And every night she walked the kid
And got her shins all wrecked.
And now she wouldn't be a man
To save her precious life,
But she wouldn't mind-she'd love to be
Some nice mans darling wife.

TELEGRAMS FOR PLACE CARDS
Idea That Has Found Favor With
Those Who Desire Novelty at
Their Entertainments.

Some interesting place cards are
little kilograms. The envelope Is
white, printed In blue, and the words
on the envelope speak of good cheer
and friendliness. The telegram inside
the envelope has more to say regard
ing friendliness and hospitality. The
name of the guest, naturally, is to be
written on the outside of the envelope.
Two dozen Of these kilograms. In a
box, are, sold for rs cents. Little let
tiers are also sold for place cards.
The envelopes have slip Of trans
parent paper through the center, like
the envelopes used by some business
firms, and the name, written on card
within the envelope, shows through
the transparent paper. A riddle print
ed on the card also shows through the
paper, and the answer to the riddle is
printed at the top of the card, to be
read when 1t is taken from the en-
velope. In the upper left hand top of
the envelope are the words Return
often to this house." and the stamp
is formed of the words, Eat, drink
and be merry" printed in red.

A few days later she had occa-

r EVANSVILLE, IND.--If you should

A. Melzer, benevolently inclined
resident Of this city, who has found

the city, has hit upon a plan that
will make 1t easy going for Evans

tive pipings and trimmings.
One suit of striped material, which
is illustrated, in the large drawing,
was effectively made up with the
stripes running diagonally across the
bodice fronts. The right side Tapped
across the left and buttoned over a
scarf of black satin, which fell from
the neck. below the waist line. There
was a trimmed rundown collar Of
white MORE.
Comfortable and practical bathing
coats are made Of black or blue serge,
with large collars and cuffs bordered
with relieving note Of gay color.
Boomers or Knockers are essential
features of the costume, and should
be of the same material as the skirt
and blouse. The Knockers should be
loose enough for comfort, but fitted
carefully, though easily, around the
hips and waist.
A tight or stiff corset Ia an absurd
ity, but there are corded bathing CIR
dies which will keep a suit smooth
around the waist and over the hips
without cramping the body. The stock

belt neatly adjusted to cover the union
Of the skirt and bodice--if the two
are not, as is advisable, stitched to

All colored embroidery should be

"All he wants to be assured OF is that

Plenty Of Plating.

Knife plating is having popularity
all its own. Knife plated ruffles and
frills are used on crepe de chine and
wash net petticoats; knife plated edge
collars and cuffs on coats and blouses.
And knife plated silk trimming is
much used on wolfe and crepe after
noon frocks One way Of utilizing this
form of trimming is to edge broad
folded satin girdle top and bottom with
a knife plated satin frill about an
inch and a half wide. An elaborate
white wolfe afternoon frock was made
with q girdle of this kind in deep blue
satin and was further trimmed with q
few touches of bright blue on the bod
ice. OF course a girdle so made in
creases the apparent size Of the waist,
but Fashion says that Is a thing tc
be desired.
