The snugly fitted basque cut on

TUB SKIRTS IN THREE STYLES
Plain, Flounced, or With TUNES,
They VIII Survive the Work Of
Laundering.

Skirts of wash materials are divid
ed-like 'all Gaul'' of our Latin school
days-into three parts. They are
pretty sure to be either plain
flounced, or with tunics. Some at.
tempts are made to produce draped
skirts in the tub frocks, but the re-
suits are singularly unattractive in
most cases. If they do not please be.
fore the dress Is washed and ironed
what can be expected Of them after
they have submitted to those always
disturbing processes?
The tunic is capable of an almost
infinite variety Of treatment and 1t
makes possible the general silhouette
required by fashion. For the lighter
materials 1t is unquestionably the
best idea on which to work. In the
case Of the girlish figure, whether
possessed by a girl herself or by a
thrice fortunate woman, the flounced
skirt is an attractive rival of the
tunic. In the heavier materials, such
as linens. ratines and their allies, the
plain skirt is best for more reasons
than one But in these cases the
plainness can be broken by a decep,
tive treatment Of tapping seams.
which give the main lines of draped
skirts without any undesirable bunchl-
ness.

Proper 1lme to SEN Hoas.

As general proposition, 1t seldom
pays to carry hogs long after they
are ready for market. Feeders who
have held their hogs for rise in the
market have found that the expensive
feeds wipe out all the advantages of
a higher price later.
Gains must be made or profits will
be materially reduced. Light feed.
ing is risky speculation, because
they cannot be carried along without
expensive grain feeds. Heavy feed
ing can be continued profitably to
growing pigs as long as supplement
feeds are fed along with the fat put
on by the corn: In this way $50 to
200 pound hogs can be continued on
full feed to weight Of 200 pounds
or more and pay large profits.

hard to raise. but do not think SO, as
experience has shown them to be
much less bother than chickens. al

each one six eggs. and usually get
good results.

they will learn where their quarters

lings are unlike chicks, for they re-
quire little feed. Tender grasses and
similar green's is all they require.

MISS LAIRD PAID

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.

Hudson, to whom they wired as soon
as Miss Laird who was a boarder at
their house, was known to be dead
from inhaling chloroform. Miss Eate-
man stated that because Of illness she
would be unable TO come to Camden
at the present. but would write par,
ticulars later. Miss Bateman was
the woman to whom Miss Laird had
addressed an envelope with the in
istrnction to send IL 20 the address
without opening, but which the cor
oner's jury did open, finding only a
check for $50, with nothing else in
tho letter.
Il was also ascertained here yester-
that the supposed snug bank account
which showed on her bank book, Will
no credits OF anything having beer
paid out, had been reduced TO less
than 500, she recently having sent a
check of $1,000 to Miss Bateman.
Ii was also ascertained at the of.
flee of the recorder Of deeds that two
deeds Of property had been given tc
Miss Bateman by Miss Laird. one In
1907 and the other in 1912. The
amount remaining in bank barely
covered the amount of checks she had
made out just prior to her death by
suicide.
The funeral Of Miss Lair took place
this afternoon at o'clock, with inter
ment at Odd Fellows Cemetery, Cam.
den, where she had purchased a lot
she having left a check for that pur.
pose among her effects.
