Buttons of Russian malachite look extremely well on dark or light cos tunes
 Coral and 1apis buttons or beads with pearls. ] Most of the new fashions are very easy for home dressmakers to carry l out because fit seems to be the last thing thought about.
 Collars which sit around the neck of their own free will are features of the latest costumes.
 Some skirts are gathered to the knees. falling from there to the foot, like a wide f1ounce.
 When sleeves are long they are moulded to the arm.
 Straw belts are one of the novelties of the sprng season.
 Sashes serve to modernize an an- oient dress To go with the new spring dresses are large shady hats. plateau shaped.
 Hat brims of two tones are very charming.
 The Watteau-shaped hats have rich pompadour ribbons for trimming.
 The best hat to choose for a. tailor made suit is the high shape of fine black straw, with a tall ostrich quill.
 Tiny sailor hats with rows of wings poised around the crowns are among the newest. R1pe gu1mpeS and collars are enjoy ing great popularity
 BoleroS are so varied a chapter might be written about them.
 The newest and prettiest red is called beetroot, Plain linen coats and shirts are im- mensely improved by rich girdles of pompadour ribbon
 Pannier gowns are seen made alto gether of Roman striped silk.
 With the cape style, which many jackets affect, the Italian note prevails over the Oriental. .
 The absolutely plain robes, be1tless, like Egyptian tunics, are very chic.
 The trousered evening dress of chiffon is not half as bizarre as it sounds but very few womedi can wear it successfully. Among the new nightgowns are dot ted swisses, made Empire style.
 PIeated ruf1es. edged with rose or blue linen, are seen on the new lin- gerie. sszf There is fancy for princess slips made entirely of very fine embroidery. Taffeta of certain light weave is used for nightgowns.
 Printed pongee is the latest form in which this Oriental fabric appears.
 Some of the prettiest French under clothes have simply scallops and Val enciennes edges.

Revenge Of a Vegetarian.

A party Of vegetarians paid visit
to the country, and after few hours
ramble in the woods and fields pro.
posed to finish up their hitherto
pleasan outing by picnic tea party,
After getting comfortably seated to
the spread on the grass they were
slightly disturbed.
A bull made his appearance in a
rather hasty manner, spreading con.
fusion among the party, each trying
to get over the stile first.
One old lady ran, painting, behind,
reaching the stile only just in time to
save herself by scrambling through 1t
and falling in q heap on the other
side. On regaining her feet she turn
ed to the bull and breathlessly ex-
claimed:
That's your gratitude, is it? l
haven't eaten q bit of beef for the last
two years; but I'll make up for II now,
you ungrateful creature!"

Lecture at Lafayette.

DR.. 0. =. Stricken OF New Ulm
gave a short lecture here Tuesday
evening on the subject of Organic
evelopment. An unusually large
audience turned out to hear the Doc
tor on subject which appeared to be
Of interest to most of his listeners.
His remarks brought out a subject
which by many had not been given
any thought or attention except in a
passing way and therefore it caused
more Or less discussion after the
speaker had gone. This Is nothing
new of course as all subjects have
more than one side and after an
audience has listened to lecture of
any nature there is apt to be divi-
sion of opinion and sides will be
taken as to the real issue. DR.. Strick-
Ter is a live wire and slikes to delve
into the mysteries of the past in order
to learn more of the present. He is a
man of research and thinker. IF his
remarks here caused few people to
brush up their thinkers it caused no
harm since thinking does not hurt
anybody.
Rev. Holm, also of New Ulm, was
present and entertained the audience
with number of vocal selections
which were enjoyed. He was also
called on tos.speak cand did so very

The sum of S8,6484S was expended
for the care of the poor of the County.
Of this amount 81 ,492.47 constituted
the expenses Of the Poor Farm, the
sum OF 50, 453. Is was expended by the
various County Commissioners for
nursing and the relief and support OF
the poor outside of the Poor Home:
the sum of S547,45 was expended for
medicines and the physicians CT the
County were paid the sum of 81 .274 SO
for attending and prescribing for the
sick poor Only one mothers pension
was allowed and on this account the
sum of $2l0 was expended.
A total OF Sl4, Sl2.3S was expended
On the bridges and roads of the
County. With balance on hand OF
$66, 47O.45 enough moneys we're paid
into the County Ditch fund to swell
this to the sum OF 1917, 1927. 81. OF this
amount the sum of s2l, 395. IS was paid
out and there was in this fund at the
end Of the fiscal year the sum OF
$75. 1892, OF, an increase OF approx
mately 50, 500. The assets of the
County over the liabilities are given
at sl45, 879l7. The value OF the Court
House and fixtures is estimated at
$53, 900, the County Jail Building at
$4,000 and the County Poor Farm
and buildings at 1927, 800. The annual
statement proves interesting reading
and should be carefully perused by
every taxpayer. This will of course
have no. appreciable effect in low. r.
ing the taxes of the County, but it
gives the taxpayer the satisfaction of
knowing where his money, paid as
taxes, has gone to.

GREAT FEATURE AT GEM.
"Quo VadIs' Produced in Eight
Reels Wednesday and Thursday.

"Quo Vadis", George Kleine's
magnificent production ofthe mastery
Clnes photo drama which crowded the
Astor Theatre in New York City and
broke records at Philadelphia, Chi
cago and Boston, continues to do so in
all other cities where it is being pre-
sented. 1t is glowing tribute to the
finest achievement the world has yet
known in the field of photo drama and
serves TO illustrate the marvellous
hold this form of entertainment has
on the public and the enormous posi-
bilities for future development.
That tremendous soul or magnetism
with which the brilliant Sienkiewicz
invested his novel is retained in the
photo drama reproduction and the
audience is almost as much swayed by
the camera effect as by the words of
the novelist. The arrangement of the
picture is perfect, relating the story in
Sc quential detail, and, by the use of
the slightest imagination, the auditor
has no difficulty in following and un-
Outstanding it. The pursuit of Lygia
by the young patrlcian Vinitius is so
thoroughly human it has a strong
appeal to everybody and when his
cart h]y passion is glorified through
his conversion, the young man has
everybody's sympathy in his trials
1t is the immense human interest of
the photo drama that has as much as
anything to do with it's success. The
spectacular features are wonderful,
the burning of Rome, the pageantry of
the court of Nero, the games in the
Arena and the devouring of the
Christians by the lions all have their
thrills but to young and old it is the
big love story that fingers longest in
the memory. Mr.. George Kleine's
production of 'Quo vadies'' will be
the attraction at the Gem Theatre for
two days commencing Feb. 4th. First
show at O'Clock. Admission rs cents.
