Style Has Much to Recommend Il
Especially for Wear In the
Warm Months.

The sleeveless coat is an adaptation
of the military coat. The graceful
lines Of this cloak design, with the
long slant over the shoulder, are re-
sponsible for very charming type
of coat and skirt that has just made
its appearance among the new models,
wherein somewhat the idea of the
cape is suggested without either its
length or weight, neither of which is
needed when merely walking cos.
tune is required.
One Of these coats and skirts shows
how exceedingly graceful the style
can be-the coat being entirely sleeve.
less, fact that for summer wear is
obviously great advantage.
The completed model was carried
out in navy blue suiting Of fine quail
ity, the coat being made with long.
shaped basque. and a round cape ef-
feet over the shoulders. The skirt
was very original, having a deep
slanting hip yoke of the same mate
rial, into which the drapery was set
and firmly sewn along with double
row Of machine stitching.
The coat fastened across the front
with number Of small painted china
buttons, while beneath it was worn q
blouse Of navy chiffon. with long,
transparent sleeves, completed with a
winged collar Of white lawn wired up
ward at the sides.

smokalaes chImneys.

A smokeless chimney may be pro-
duced by flooding the fire with air. but
this entails heavy increase in the
chimney loss with consequent waste
Of coal, according to Engineering
Magazine. This does not mean that 1t
pays to make smoke. although for q
given furnace and set Of conditions 1t
may be 30. In other words, there are
cases when the losses due to incom-
plete combustion as indicated by
smoke may be less than the losses due
to the admission Of sufficient air to
kill" the smoke. This is the weak
point Of many so-called smoke con.
sumers." The science Of the matter
lies in the production Of perfect COM
bustion. which ie necessarily smoke
less and which at the same time in
wolves q correct proportioning (neither
an excess nor a deficiency Of air to
the fuel. The production of such COM
bustion Is not entirely controlled by
the simple matter of air admission,
but to as great an extent by the intel
ligent design Of the furnace itself. This
involves the maintenance Of high tenn
perature and the thorough mixing OF
the air with the combustion gases and
with the carbon, and constitutes q
science In itself.

Rev. Schwab viii Move to Ackley

Rev. j. c Schwab was greatly sur.
prised Monday when he learned that
the conference in session at Dysart had
transferred him from Audubon to Ack.
ley, Iowa where he will be the resident
pastor of the Evangelical church. An.
dubon people in general will regret to
learn of this change. Neither the con.
gregation nor the pastor looked for the
change, in fact it was generally sup
posed that Rev. Schwab would remain.
The Ackley work will he great deal
easier for Mr.. Schwab His work here
will be handled by a younger man, Rev.
G. F. Smith of Waverly, who is man
exceptionally well fitted for the Audu-
bon charge.

Rev. Schwab will gave his last sermon.
On Wednesday he will ship his house
hold effects, and the following Sunday

State Food Inspector Here

G. o. Frazer state food inspector was
/" Audubon Tuesday meeting the mer-
chants and getting them ready to candle
all eggs brought in by the farmers and
to refuse to accept any bad eggs from
any source after May 18th. In the
knowledge that the loss on eggs to the
farmers and merchants of Iowa is over
81, 900, 100 annually as the result of inn
proper care and handling, the state food
and dairy commission has entered upon
a campaign to reduce this waste and to
guarantee TO the consumer pure eggs in
the future.
The campaign will be directed for
the farmer and dealer alike, At first
It will be educational in character, but
as soon as an opportunity has beer
given for farmers and dealers to famil
iarize themselves with the law, viola
tions will be prosecuted, which means,
that If the farmer sells bad eggs to the
merchant. the farmer will be prosecuted,
and IL the merchant sells bad eggs to
the consumer, the merchant will be
prosecuted. Farmers are advised to
candle all eggs before offering them for
sale. If they do, it will mean that
withina short time they will get a
higher market price for their eggs.
The matter of Gambling eggs is equally
binding on all dealers in town. If a
farmer takes his eggs to one merchant
and he refuses to take them unless they
are candled, he need not take them to
another merchant, for he will demand
the same thing the first merchant did.
The safest plan is for the farmer to
candle his eggs before he brings them
to town, for any bad eggs will be thrown
out by the merchant, and the farmer
will have to stand the loss, so he had
better keep the bad eggs at home, and
give the slop Darrell the advantage OF
it. We hope the department will
succeed in reducing the enormous waste
that has been going on for years. We
likewise hope the farmer will gather
the eggs before they get bad and in
return get the highest market price for
his hen fruit.
