The Successful Hostess.

I once knew a hostess who gave
glorious parties with wonderful mu-
sic, refreshments and flowers that
transformed her home into Titania's
court. But when this girl entertained
there was always long row of bash
full boys who sat alone on a window
seat, afraid to speak to any girl This
went on for two evenings, but at the
third party a halt was called and the
girl tried new plan. She would go
up to some blushing, painfully embar-
raised boy, and, showing him a book
or picture, would get him away from
his mates. Then, after a pleasant chat
she would leave him, treasured and
confident and quite equal to convers-
ing with the young girl whom the
thoughtful hostess would leave in her
own place. So this girls parties were
always successful, for every one had
marvellous time, even the girl her
SELF; which sounds almost impossible
unless you have tried her way. Her
good time came to her because she
knew that her guests were enjoying

Vision of School Children.

An examination of forty children
from two public schools in New York
city shows some striking results. The
forty pupils examined we're the worst
that could be found in the two schools,
eighteen of them being SO stupid that
they were in ungraded classes, eleven
were so stupid that they required
three terms to do the work of one
term, and eleven were delinquent. All
of the forty children had defective
vision. They were fitted with proper
glasses, and after six months it was
found that thirty-two of them had
made astonishing progress. These
thirty-twO were under as many differ
ent teachers. A report of this work
has been made to the board of educa-
ton, recommending that the entire
care Of the school children, mental,
moral and physical, be vested in one
department with a single head and
that that should be the board of edu-
cation; that sufficient number of
doctors be trained to deal with all de-
fects of school children who are at
present in the category of ungraded,
backward or disciplinary cases; that
any child whose work is unsatisfactory
for one term should be examined and
all defects of structure and habit cor
rected as far as possible.-Journal of
the American Medical Association.

CAREFUL FEEDING OF COLTS
Must Be Kept Growing If Best Horses
Are to Be Made Of Them-Oats
Make Good Feed.

Some people seem to think that
the colts can live out In all kinds OF
weather, and thrive on any kind OF
feed that they can get. This Is a
great mistake, however. Colts, like
any other young animals, must be
kept growing by careful feeding II the
best horses are to be made Of them.
Now is the time Of the year to pre-
pare for feeding and sheltering the
colts. Make preparations to feed
them a little, gradually increasing the
amount as the grass becomes shorter.
Fix a small Enclosure in the pasture
where the colts run, so that they can
run under the rails at gap, but
mares will be excluded.
If the Enclosure is made near the
sailing or watering place the mares
will not be so liable to toll the colts
away before they are through eating.
Oats, with a little bran mixed in
them, make an excellent feed. Feed
once a day, and lightly at first. In a
little while they can be fed twice
daily and will eat quart Of feed a
day.

The jury of mountaineers that re-

The trial was held in a sparsely set

ECONOMY OF STEEL WHEELS
seems to Have Large Measure Of
Common Sense Back Of Claims
Advanced In Its Favor.

The agricultural college and expert
ment station OF the University of
wyoming has proved the value Of
steel wheels to its complete satisfac-
ton. and in recent bulletin one Of
the experts of that institution said:
Low. wide-tired steel wheels will
give any farmer better equipment for
MS work. Under all conditions of
the field and nearly all conditions of
the road it is estimated that broad
tired steel wheels pull from 30 to
100 per cent. lighter than the narrow
tires"
The steel wheel for farm use seems
to have large measure Of common
sense back Of the claims that have
been advanced in favor Of it.
From the standpoint Of convenience
the farm wagon that has been made
over into low-down vehicle with
wide steel tires has strong appeal.
1t Is easily loaded and overcomes all
the objections to high wagons Of the
old type.
Users Of steel wheels say their
economy cannot be denied, as they
make a much lighter draft, are there
fore easier on the team, and, more
over, soon pay for themselves In the
elimination Of tire troubles, so COM
mon to wood wheels.
Their practical value is further
vouched for in the experiences OF
those who find that wide-tired steel
wheels do not cut up the pastures,
do not become. "mired" in soft fields
or muddy roads, and do not cause the
heavy pulls that "rutty" roads have
always meant for narrow tires.

SOME MATERIALS AND COLORS
Need Be No Complaint That a Suffi'
cient Variety Has Not Been
Offered.

A rather thick silk is in favor
among the wealthy for outdoor cos
tunes, and a favorite tint is verdigris,
shot with gray, perhaps, or in other
ways modified. For instance, a little
verdigris braiding or embroidery is
applied with gray silk. Many shots
are worn, such as gray and green,
green and blue, blue and mauve,
mauve and pink, the effect Of which is
to make a winter outdoor costume
very smart, always remembering that
the long coat invariably covers the
light material. The length is not SO
inconvenient as it was last year, but
frees the feet and ankles. =
A black velvet coat trimmed all
round with black fox and with heavy
collar and cuffs to match, is cheap at
about $780, This gives some idea Of
the price of well-cut, up-to-date, long,
outdoor coat. One of this description
can be worn in the evenings as well
as in the daytime, recommendation
to many.

Uncertainty they spelled out the

veyed very little; and they were truly

chess of Devonshire and the small
Princess by VelazQuez, and the WON
