A WARM PROTECTIVE COAT.

Women who motor will certainly
welcome this coat II is really pro-
tective. it is easy to slip on and its
loose sleeves do not in any way
crush the gown beneath. AS a mat
ter of course. it can be used for many
occasions but II is especially adapted
to motoring, travelling and the like.
The three-quarter length shown on
the figure Is a good one but the coat
can be made full length. If liked. The
box plat effect at the front and back
is obtained by tapping the center
portions over and joining the edges
beneath the flat stitching. There IS
pretty little fullness over the hips
that makes the coat especially desir-
able for wear over fashionable
gowns. In this case, one of the new
rough cloakings is trimmed with fur
but anything that is soft apd warm is
suitable for such a coat as this one.
Fur always makes. pretty trimming,
and this season is especially fashion
able bue there are fur cloths that can
he used with success and often the
collar and cuffs are made of the ma
terial with trimming of fur handing.
For the medium size. the three
quarter coat will require 6 1-2 yards
of material 81, 4 IA yards "a or 81

THOUGHTS OF A
SWEET OLD HYMN
Written for The Evening Journal
By James L. CrOzier.

Jesus, lover of my soul,
Precious words to Christian ears,
LIet me to thy bosom fly
That drives away all doubts or
fears.
While the nearer waters rool
Blessed though, we're safe on board
While the tempest still is high.
The old ship Zion with our Lord.
Other refuge have ! none,
II is a blessed place to hide;
Hangs my soul on Thee.
His promise is to still abide.
Leave, oh leave me not alone;
oh, praise His Name, that blessed
Still support and comfort me
Will bring us to that promised land.
Plenteous grace in Thee is found,
Help us Lord to watch and pray
Grace to cover all my sin
And shun all evil every day.
Let the healing streams abound
We all are sinners saved by Grace (;
Make and keep me pure within
Some blessed day shall see his face.

PAYS, TO FERTILIZE MEADOW
Increase In the Yield Of Hay Estlmat'
ed From Three-Quarters to One
Ton Per Acre.

Several years ago when cutting hay
neyt to a patch of wheat in the same
eeid. |. G.. there was no fence between.
I noticed that the hay adjoining the
wheat was much heavier in widths OF
a drill than elsewhere, writes r. r.
Gerlach in the Michigan Farmer; In
fact. there was so much difference
that | began to study out the reason.
which explained itself simply enough.
In drilling the wheat the fall be-
fore with $50 pounds Of 2:S:2 fertf
l.zer per acre, and running the drill
out on the meadow, there would be
from two to four feet of meadow fer
tilted while in going back the drill
would not be set in gear until at the
edge of the wheat field, consequently
every other width Of the drill would
show a marvellous difference in the
grass.
This set me to thinking that II
would be a good investment to fer
tilIze meadows, and the following fall
I fertilized five acres with the same
result, raising the disks and drilling
the fertilizer over the top, and since
then we have been doing so. and I
am satisfied we harvest from three
quarters to one ton Of hay per aero
more where We use the fertilizer
The fertilizer can be sown late In the
fail before the snow covers the
ground, or in the early spring.

"Mr. Manning Was Interesting"

W.T. mauhtu0 was ihterestIn0s
and her feelings were hurt. She i'm.
agined that she had become nothing
but a nursemaid In the eyes of the
world. and gave up her play with the
children!
so she shut herself up In the house
and wouldn't have anything to do with
anyone!
Miss McGee's tall and angular. and
sort Of eccentric looking, but she's
got an awfully sweet nature, and every
one was sorry that her feelings were
hurt. However, she wouldn't let any
one console her. or explain.
Then one day old Lawyer Manning
passed the house and, hearing music,
he went up. She was SO surprised at
his visit that she let him in. and what
do you suppose she was doing? She
had saved lot Of newspaper articles
ON how to dance the tango, and she
was learning 1t from them. playing
until she had a tune in mind and then
singing for the dancing!"
"And SO Manning is the happy indi.
vidual?" anticipated the husband.
Now, you just wait till l finish!"
finished the bride. "Mr. Manning was
interested in the tango and Miss Mary
MCGEE promised to teach him all about
1t. So he went almost every after
noon.
And then the minister, who every
one says was fond of Miss Mary Nc
Gee years ago. called. OF course, his
visit occurred when Mr.. Manning was
there. and 1t sort of woke him up. I
guess he'd been thinking Miss Mary
McGee would always be there. and
there was no hurry about asking her.
Anyway. he began to call frequently,
and Miss Mary MCGEE always let them
come in. and they remained hours
and hours, each trying to outstay the
other. and thus get the opportunity to
propose. l guess! But they always
had to 60 away together, for neith-
er would give in!
And actually Miss Mary MCGEE got
SO pretty with the activity and ex.
element"
But which one got her?' interrupt
ed the man.
why, that's the romance of it,"
triumphed the bride. They'd been
+. calling for about month, steadily. al
most every afternoon, and then one
day the minister brought along his
brother, who was visiting him. be-
cause he couldn't leave his visitor
at home, and he wouldn't let Mr..
Manning get the advantage of a call
alone!
And the minister's brother had the
wit to invite her out. And he pro.
posed right away, and now they're
married!"-Chicago Daily News.
