cred into a frill at the top, and has
an insertion of lace few inches from
the bottom. At the base of this frill
the material is turned over and
hemmed down, and a thin wooden
lath, cut to fit across the window, run
through. In each end Of the lath there
are small circular holes, through
which brass-headed nails can be run
into the woodwork by the side of the
window. These holes should be made
large enough for the heads of the nails
to pass through so that to take the
curtain down it merely has to be lifted
from the nails.
The small sketch at the top of the
illustration clearly shows this and the
end of the lath that is visible on either
side Of the curtain can be painted the
same color as the woodwork behind 1t.
Short curtains suspended in this
manner will not sag in the center,
which SO often happens with curtains
hung upon tapes, and as the lath is
stiff, it can be run through the curtain
in moment, and equally easily with
drawn when the curtain has to be
| washed.

Frances Birth Rate.

In France last year births exceeded
deaths by but 41,901. This is a bad
showing, but is far from being the
worst France has made in recent
years. In 1907 there were 1901 more
deaths than births, and this record
was passed in 1901, when there were
TAP, ia births and 1888 deaths. The
vital statistics of France are full Of
gloomy suggestions to French publ
cists, whose sentiments are voiced by
the Temps In remarking that the pop
ulation increase in Germany in 1913
was 20 times that of France. The
significance of this comment becomes
apparent when we remember that
Germanys army expansion forced
France to return to the three year
service system. Germany has a sur
plus of recruits every year. whereas
France is compelled to increase length
of service because it cannot command
an increase of recruit supply-Boston

COMING FUR FASHIONS
NEW MODES HAVE ALREADY
BEEN DEcREED.
Handsome Novelties viii Be Ready
With the Advent of Chilly Weather
Fitch viii Be az Popular
as Last Season.

The new modes in furs are already
decided. No matter whether crino-
lines or hoops distend our skirts in
the widest circumference which we
are able to navigate, or whether waist
lines become wasp-like or bag-like,
fashions. In furs are definitely con-
cluded. That is, those for early au-
tumn wear are already in the mar
ket.
Small neckpieces of marten and
lynx, together with smartly designed
fancies In ermine and white coney, are
to be greatly demanded.
Huge bushy brushes will be sole or
cealing the clasps.
Broad stoles of seal or muskrat are
to be worn, but the pelerine styles in
itch and coney, marten and dyed coon
will be very high style.
The waist-reaching rippled capes, so
fashionably correct when the grand
mothers Of today made their maidenIy
debuts. will again assume fashionable
Importance
The reincarnation of old fur styles
will be signally modernized by the ad-
dition OF vestees and waistcoats of fur
in contrasting pelts. No prettier idea
has been in fur vogues for many a sea-
son than these capped vestee styles,
which allow SO much variation of the
modes without departing from the in
trinsic idea Of the design
Imagine a fitch cape not so full that
1t ripples at the waist line, but is con-
trolled In clever fashion by being In
visibly fastened to an under vest OF
girdle-styled outlines made Of seal.
With a melon muff of the fitch
trimmed with sealskin rosettes, and
with black seal bow of tailored d.
mansions decorating the oval-shaped
cape at the back and in front,
charming combination of fur pelts is
accomplished.
The prevailing fads for furs will In
clude fitch, as was done last season;
also muskrat, chinchilla, otter and
beaver and monkey fur.

CANAL PROJECT
IS PRACTICABLE
PLAN LAID BEFORE BOARD OF
UNITED STATES ARMY
ENGINEERS.
SEEK CONGRESSIONAL AID
Channel to Connect Lake Superior
With Mississippi River by Way
os Brule and ST. >Croix
Rivers

Madison-Senator E. F. Ackley OF
Chippewa Falls and Assemblyman
John A. Chinook of Hudson, mem
bers of the Lake Superior Mississippi
canal commission, stopped in Maol-
son on their way home from Wash
ington, D. c., where they laid the
canal project before a board OF Unit
ed States army engineers which de-
clared the plan practicable from an
engineering point of view and the
only other question to be determined
was whether the volume of commerce
that it would carry would be sum
dent to justify building it.
Senator Ackley said that congress
would be asked to make the proposed
canal part of the general river ana
harbor improvement project. Dill
Is now pending before congress to
appropriate $8,OOO,O00 for canal
from Duluth and Superior to the
Mississippi river, by way of the Brule
and st. Croix rivers Senator knute
Nelson and Congressman Charles K.
Davis of Minnesota are pressing the
latter bill
The Minnesota men are willing 10
unite with the Wisconsin commission
in an effort to secure canal which
shall follow the course proposed in
the pending bill or any other feasible
course

WEAR A BOW ON YOUR BODICE
rails and Designs, but Something
There Must Be.

Somewhere on the bodice now there
must be a bow
1t may be a tiny affair set in the
back of the wired, standing collar or
frilI of lace which finishes the neck.
1t may be a soft, graceful butterfly
bow posed at the front of the surpliced
bodice, ostensibly holding the fronts
together and hiding a practical snap
button fastening beneath.
1t may be an enormous bat-Wlng
bow measuring half a yard from tip
to tip, set at the back, between the
shoulders.
Sometimes these big bows are
dropped to the hips, just below the
waist line at the back.
They may even be dropped lower
holding up puff skirt drapery in bus
tie effect.
But a bow-or several bows-the
costume must boast II it is to be up
to the moment in smartness.
Bows of tuIle make dancing frocks
airy.
Bows of serge Of mohair are set on
tailored coats of the same fabrics and
silk or ribbon bows are used with
frocks of silk material.

SEEK TO ANNUL CHARTER
Action Planned Against Interstate
Transfer Railway Company by
Attorney General Owens.

Superior-An effort to annul the
charter of the Interstate Transfer
railway, a subsidiary of the United
States Steel corporation, is to be
made by Attorney General Owen, ac-
cording to Assemblyman R. j. Nye,
who has Just returned from Madi-
son. The company, which operates
line from the new SIS, 900
steel plant under construction at the
southwest edge of the city to Wiscon-
sin points at the southeastern corner
of the city, has thus far failed to
comply with a requirement of the
last legislature that it construct a
"usabl approach on the Minnesota
side of it's ST. Louis river bridge The
structure has two decks, one for vehi-
Gle and street car traffic, which has
never been made available for use.
II is half a mile long and cost nearly
100000.

AWARD BRAKEMAN $4O,987
VIM. Mcmahon of Amboy Is Given
Large Verdict in Minnesota Court
Against Railroad.

Madlson.-The largest personal in
