KEEPING CLEAR OF STAINS
Water Into Which Peeled Potatoes
Have Been Cooked Is One Of the
Most Effective Helps.

Isn't it annoying to find that spot of
grease or fruit stain has been drop
ped on the front of new blouse or
dress? On silks and delicate scarfs
these marks can generally be removed
by this simple method, which I don't
suppose you've heard of before. Crate
two large peeled potatoes into q basin
of cold water, and at the end of halt
an hour strain and put the potatoes
into another bowl of water. Then
when the sediment has quite settled
rub or sponge the affected part with
the liquor.
Grease spots should be treated with

MEANS OF%PREvENTlNG DUST
Proper Spreading Of Tar on Macs
damixed Roads viii Do Work e.
fectively-Ro1ds Last Longer.

At the recent road conference In
Paris 1t was decided that the proper
spreading of tar on macadamized
roads is an effective means of pre-
venting dust. The method is largely
used in France. About one-third Of
a gallon of tar is used for each square
yard of surface. The roads last
longer, and the cost of maintenance
is reduced. In the United States oil
Is employed to considerable extent
to preven+ dust and preserve the sur
face Of roads. The oil is spread from
carts, during the making of the road,
to the amount of one or two gallons
per square yard. The French road en-
gineers recommend the planting Of
trees along roadsides as a means of
preventing dust. In France all roads
not less than 80 feet wide are re-
quired to have single line of. trees
on each side, at distances apart vary
ing from 16 to 80 feet Youths Com

WIDE CHOICE IN BUTTONS
Odd Shapes and coIorings Have Been
Designed to Suit the Costumes
Now Worn.

The new buttons are in odd shapes
and colorings. Squares, hexagons,
pyramid effects, barrel, platter, olive,
bathtub and pear shapes are the nov
elites. Besides these unusual shapes
there are still the ball and half ball
buttons
Some very striking novelties are in
black glass or crystal with mosaic de-
signs in Chinese colorings. These un-
usual effects are accomplished by
means of carving, and by painting
the designs underneath the crystal.
Dainty floral designs are done the
same way. These Chinese colorings
are even more strikingly emphasized
in the semiball buttons, some of which
are half one color and half another,
while others are divided into as many
as four sections, each of which is in
different color. Rich burnt orange
tones are frequently used.
Some handsome porcelain buttons
are painted in Persian and mosaic eff.
fects. Among the extremely new ef-
fecst In porcelain and crystal are the
fruit buttons in realistic shapes and
colorings. Apples, pears, cherries,
etc., are so perfectly designed as to
render them readily recognizable.

The diagram on the right shows the
shape in which the material should be
cut out. The two portions B and G
on which the handkerchiefs and gloves
rest should be stiffened with an inter-
lining of thin cardboard sewn in be-
tween the silk and the lining.
The two flaps, A and A, are folded
downwards on to B, and sewn down
at the edges, and this forms the pock-
cts for the handkerchief. The portion
D is folded on to c, and treated in the
same manner. Ribbon strings are
provided to secure the case when
closed, and in the right hand sketch
this may be seen accomplished and
the ribbons tied in neat little bow.
The design which appears on the
pockets, and also on the exterior Of
the sachets, may be easily worked
from our sketch, and consists of white
dog roses and leaves embroidered in
various shades of green.

BRACELETS OF BLACK VELVET
Fad. That Has Been Taken Up and
Endorsed by the Leaders Of
Paris Society.

It has now become fashionable in
Paris to wear a broad bracelet of black
velvet on the left arm. 1t fits the
wrist snugly and is held in place by a
large monogram of small diamonds
bedded in platinum.
Everywhere one sees this one orna-
ment worn on the arm with an eve
ming costume. 1t is far more conspic-
uous than a jeweled bracelet and
serves to cover the ugliest part of a
woman's arm, which is the bone at the
wrist.
BY the way, black ornaments are be-
coming more fashionable each day.
The huge black velvet chrysanthemum
for evening gowns, the black oilcloth
rose for afternoon gowns and morning
hats, the black velvet bracelet at din
ners and theater, and now, Callot is
using large pieces of black onyx jew
elry set with seed pearls or brilliants
to fasten the front of tulle bodice.
One can buy these ornaments in
Paris and attach them to the gown as
one would a rose. The effect is i'm
mensely good when the gown is Of
white tulle or white tin, with a
irapery of silver lace. Too much black
must not be used.

fur-bearing animals whose pelts are
most valued.
Chinchilla is growing rarer and
rarer, and before long will probably
be impossible to obtain. Fine sables,
silver fox, seal, ermine, hreitschwang,
all are rising in price as they dimin-
ish in quantity. Each year the max
ers Of fashion take up some one of
the less expensive furs and make it
fad, in order that the average wom-
an may find in the modishness of a
fur she can buy some compensation
for the fact that the best of the furs
are beyond her reach.
The small furs are varied and at
tractive this year, and while some of
the models are undeniably freakish
there are few without charm. There
Is decided liking for the little col
larettes and neck scarfs of fur.
These are often trimmed with loops
Of ribbon held in place by jeweled
buckle. Some of these little collar
cites are made of a combination of
long and short haired fur.

Etiquette OF THE DANCE
Small Points That Show Girl Is Fa'

Remember that when you are in
troduced to a man at a dance it is
quite incorrect to shake hands with
him. You would do so if you met at,
say, dinner party, but in the ball
room you merely bow.
Keep your program somewhere
about you where you Cap get it out in

for a dance. Nothing is more awk-

pause while the girl untwists the cord
Of her program from the sticks of her

Crepe Handkerchief.

Little hemstitched crepe de chine
handkerchiefs are Paris novelty.
They are made of a very ane quality
of the crepe and come in wildly gay
plain colors or in the misty fowered
crepes much in vogue.
"These gay handkerchiefs are espe-
cially attractive with dark walking
suit, as when drawn from cuff, pocket
or muff they give pleasing touch of
color to the costume" says a woman
back from Paris with supply of
them in many colors. tucked into
the breast pocket of a tailored coat
with just corners showing, either
standing up stiffv like rabbits ears
or drawn down over the pocket edge
like flower petals, gay handkerchief
will give chic finishing adornment

trasting color now the fashion" .'3

lar or upon children's reins are per
haps the best to procure:
Each bell is attached to small loop
Of narrow ribbon, the ends of which
are tied tightly on to the bangle in q
smart little bow.
A glance at the sketch will explain
all this, and an the bells should be
tied on to one side of the bangle so
that baby may clutch the other side
in his little hand and shake it as Wig
orously as he pleases. Ribbon of
good kind with fast dye, and the
brightest possible reds, blues, yellows
and green's, should be selected for the
making of this little toy, and If the
bangle is brightly polished also it will
make it doubly attractive to baby.

EXHIBITION OF ROAD MODELS
Greatest Display Ever Shown in Any
Part Of World Will Be Seen at
San Francisco in 1915.

Arrangements are to be made by
the United States department of agri-
culture, through Logan Waller Page,
director of the Office of puBic roads,
to place on exhibition in 1915 the
greatest collection of road models ever
displayed In any part of the world.
The models will furnish exact dupli-
Gates Of the old Roman roads, French
roads, and all Of the various types Of
modern roads, together with miniature
models of road machinery operated
by electricity.
The Office of public roads made an
exhibit of road models for the first
time at the Alaska Yukon Pacific ex-
position. The aim was to put on view
such striking examples in miniature
of road models that visitors would
not only appreciate the beneflcent ef-
fects Of improved highways, but would
at the same time be able to under
stand the methods Of their construc-
ton.
Since the aska-Yukon-Pacif1c ex-
position closed, the exhibition has
been displayed at various other expo
sitions and fairs. Since that time the
collection has been greatly augmented,
until every single type of road is
now represented and every known
device used in the making of roads
has been reproduced in miniature.
AS a result of the instruction fur
nished by these road models, many
farmers have joined forces to improve
their own highways, and the road
building movement has had great
impetus.

ROADS SHOULD EE DRAGGED
Systematic and Persistent Use of Drag

Amount Of: Improvement.

The great benefit to dirt roads
from the systematic and persistent
use of the road drag is certainly so
plain in Illinois and other states
this year that no sensible person
can doubt that the use. Of the road
drag should be provided for by law,
says the Illinois Farmer. The sys-
tematic dragging of earth roads will
result in much greater Improvement
than any other work on them costing
the same. The road drag makes very

with the drag.
Certainly every state with soil simtI
lar to that OF Illinois should have q
law requiring road officials to have
the roads dragged whenever needed
Of course providing for the payment
for this work ont of the road taxes
Both farmers and town people should
begin work at once to secure such a
law. It will take real work to get such
law for it will not make necessary
high-priced engineers and commis-
sions, or give room for big graft in
any one spot. Fortunately the roads
can be properly dragged by farmers
and others and this road improvement
can be made without taking it out OF
the hands of local officials who can be
watched closely.

FURS TN COMBINATION
ONE OF, THE SMARTEST. OF THE
= SEASONS FASHIONS.
Few Coats Are Made Entirely Of One
Kind of Fur-Fine Imitation Seal
Is Being Very Largely
Used Just Now.

A graceful amplitude is the keynote
of the s1nartest coats. They are loose
about the hips, gathered in rather
snug yet graceful folds at the bottom.
The fronts invariably slope away to-.
ward the back, ending in a rounded
point directly at the back. The upper
part of the coat is usually finished
with a shawl collar OF some long
haired fur or a high standing collar
which, when open, falls back in deep
revers displaying the exquisite lining
of brocade which usually accompanies
coats of the more costly type. If the
collar is shawl shaped it is fashioned
in flchu style and fastens low in front.
A combination of furs is salient
feature of the seasons modes in both
the small furs and the coats, and it is
rather the exception to find a hand
some coat made entirely of one kind
of fur. Certain ermine evening coats
and the rare sable coats, to whose
beauty no other fur could add, are the
most noteworthy exception
Moleskin Is combined with seal.
with ermine, with the dyed fox or soft
taupe tone, with skunk, with white
fox. Black caracul is relieved by any
and all of the dark long haired furs
and by opossum, chinchilla, ermine.
There are also smart models made
entirely of sealskin. These usually
have enormous collars and cuffs.
Sealskin is perhaps the smartest
fur for street and evening wear, but a
majority of the luxurious cloaks shown
are made up in fine imitation seal
rather than the excessively costly
real seal, and the most exclusively
makers do not hesitate to develop
models in the imitation fur.
Extravaganza in furs has grown by
leaps and bounds within the last Is
years, and each year the prices De.
manded for really fine furs soar. The
reason is not far to seek. Women
will have handsome furs, and the de.

ROAD
buII. DING
COST OF ROAD MAINTENANCE
Test In Southeastern Nebraska Shows
Satisfactory Work Can Be Done
for Less Than $40 Per Mile.

(By c. F. CHASE, North Dakota Agri-
cultural COllege)
At the home farm in southeastern
Nebraska there is stretch of land
one-half mile in length that we have
dragged for seven years. Only once
during this period has this road been
worked with anything but drag. Two
years ago the side bitches were
cleaned with the common road grader.
A careful record of the time taken
to drag this road has been kept. Two
trips for one man and one team requir-
ing one hours time for single drag
Sing is the basis taken. The first year
we dragged 1t Is times, the second IL,
the third II, and the fourth II and the
fifth IA times or II draggings OF one
hours time in i've years. This 1e 80
cents an hour for man and team ls
S4.26 a year for the one-half mile. For
q mile it would be- $3.52 annually. An
other road in the immediate vicinity
cost less than $40 per mile annually.
A case Is noted In Public Roads Bulle-
tin No. 48, United States department
of agriculture, where the cost of SIM
liar maintenance of roads In Arkansas
was $11 per mile. State Engineer
Gearhart of Kansas puts the range Of
cost for dragging at from "a to $40.
The cost for North Dakota should
not cost more than $40 mile, while
in most cases it would be much less,
the cost depending upon the character
of the soil, the rainfall, traffic and
grade AS an average for all dirt roads
would place the annual cost OF main
tenance at $3.50 per mile or $46O,740
to drag in a satisfactory manner the
roads in North Dakota one year.
The total expenditure on public
roads of North Dakota outside OF
towns in 1911 was $691,540. If proper
ly organized, and if the people were
educated, we could properly maintain
our earth road with the present road
funds and have $230,800 left for
bridges, new construction, etc.
The national Office of public roads
recommends the patrol system COM
bining dragging. The Nebraska legis-
lature passed a law that is not unlike
the patrol system. The substance OF
the law is as follows:
The graded roads in each county are
to be divided into road dragging dis
tricts by the county boards. One per
son to each township is to be ap'
pointed superintendent of dragging.
and is to receive not more than $3.50
per day.
Roads shall be dragged whenever
necessary, and all the sections of the
highway shall be dragged at once.
County boards may levy tax of not
to exceed one mill for road dragging.
Where four horses are used on an
eight-foot drag, the rate of payment is
rs cents for each mile of highway
dragged both ways. Where seven.
foot drag and two or three horses are
used, so cents is the prescribed rate.
On rocky highways or stretches OF
road that cannot be improved by drag
ging the county boards are not re-
Quired to put the act into effect.
