.ALL WORK HAS IT'S.
RESPONSIBLE

When the girl who has entered the
business world learns that work has
its responsibilities, she takes her first
step in advancement. The one who
sees in work only what she can get
out of it is apt to stay near the bot
tom of the ladder, but the one who
recognizes the responsibility in it has
brighter future opening for her. The
book keeper, the dressmaker, the sales
woman may find to her surprise that
social engagements have to be given
up because Of the demands of business.
Overtime has to be given or for some
other reason one has to forego pleas
ures because of responsibilities which
may be unexpected, but the sooner it
is learned that these are liable to

commemorative woman who wears the
styles, the retailer who sells them to
her, and the manufacturer who makes
them for her-that it would iseem that
TALL the agitation which is being made
regarding their adoption would bring
more lasting styles into vogue.
1t seems that many years ago manu-
facturers after deciding what styles
they would make up for the season
would send men cut on the road to
show the models to the retailers and
take orders, but there were those who
for various reasons did not get their
men out in time or could not secure a
sufficient number Of orders. 80 they
conceived the ides. of introducing
some new styles in order to win at
tention. Attractive features of the
latest styles ADVANCED naturally Sc
cured followers and, before anyone
realized what it threatened, trade was
what is called .deInoralizedy and the
woman who wanted to keep up with
the style found that she could give lit
tie attention to anything else, and
the sensible woman gave up trying.
No one really knew whether the cor
rect length for coats was long or
short, whether skirts should be two!
or five inches from the ground, whe-
ther sleeves should be three-quarter
or full length. for after one style was
duly launched another would be
brought out and confusion all along
the line resulted:
BY standardizing styles, II is claimed
by some that women who make an
effort to keep up with fashion would
not feel, that they were entirely out |

ABSDRDSTYLES

L Looking over be OF: ancient date
one finds that T.. ritter had been
asked wifs she did not speak out
plainly in the way of counsel and re-
proof about the. absurdfties of the
fashionable dress of those days Al
most "a despair, the author asks,
what good would It do?" Writers Or
the present time have taken up the
refrain and echoed and re-echoed it,
while the fashions have grown more
grotesque with each appearing season,
until women themselves cried out in
disapproyal and designers swung back
to the styles which were In vogue so
years ago and OF which the writer's
said when they were asked to protest,
What good would it do"
Women of today have proved what
good 1t does for them to protest
against absurd styles. for the design
ers are helpless before the women OF
the land who form the court Of the
highest appeal; II is for them to &C.
cept or. reject as they will. The de-
signers may plan the styles, but II
women refuse to accept them there Is
nothing mere they can do, unIess'it is
to present them in a modified form
until women become more accustomed
to them, in the hope that they will
finally accept.
There is no reason why women
should wear inartistic or absurd styles
or any so unbecoming as those of a
season or so ago were to most wom-
en-. The great difficulty in bringing
about a reaction of undesirable styles
is that so many admire and accept
startling models. 1t is. not, however,

YEARS. CHANGE
N TOP COATS

Whatever the material of which it is
made, the top coat Is one of fashion s
favorites. Changes have taken place in
the cut of this garment from that worn
last year, so that it is almost necessary
that some alteration should be made to
bring the garment up to the present
styles.
AS the circular skirt is so much in
favor, and there is greater width in the
skirt than in its predecessors, one in.

cutting the skirt of a doubie-breasted

a. wide girdle. which was also a new

AGRICULTURAL ExTsNsloN.
Pruning Fruit Trees.

One of the greatest problems con-
fronting the Kentucky fruit growers
to-day is pruning. Everywhere
throughout the State are to be found
orchards that have been neglected for
years. The trees are often too
crowded, which forces the topmost
branches to reach up for sunlight thus
producing tall, uneven tree with a
dense heavy top. The lower branches
are either dead or covered with nu-
merous cankers because the air and
sunlight cannot get in keeping tht
limbs in a health condition. Dead
wood is abundant, especially in the
center of the tree.
An orchard similar to the above can
not be a profitable one. Fruit borne
on trees of this kind will be small and
inferior and will be produced only at
the sides and tops of the trees. All of
the bearing wood will be on the out
side of the tree and none on the in
side 1t is safe to say that only one
quarter of the tree is producing fruit.
The other three quarters are simply
allowing the bearing part to pay for
the keeping of the tree.
III pruning du Olu Tree II.dI Ids
been neglected for some time, the first
thing to do isto remove the bead
thing to do is to remove all dead
branches. Next look for diseased
branches and get rid of them. If the
diseased limb be a valuable one, the
affected part may be cut out and the
wound treated with a good disinfec-
tant. Bichloride of mercury may be
used in disinfecting ouch areas.
Trim out branches that have tend
ency to rub each other or that grow
back into the center of the tree across
another limb. Cankers are often
found where branches rub and the re-
moval of such limbs will aid in keep
ing cankers under control. Parallel
branches are also Objectionable be-
cause they have tendency to lock to-
gether, thus excluding the air and
sunlight from the under branch. Usu-
ally one good branch is better than
two growing close together and in
pruning one should attempt to cut
away the weaker branch.
Watersprouts are very ObjectiOna-
BILE in tree because they consume
| large quantities of plant food. They
should always be removed unless it is
desirable to leave one to fill in an
open area on the tree. WaterSprouts
very seldom produce fruit until they
are six or eight years old. To induce
fruitfulness they should be cut back
every year. If it becomes necessary

WOMAN IN SHADOW OF
eALLoWs 10 YEARS FREED

Mrs. Kate Edwards, of Reading. Pa
who has been in the shadow of tbe
gallows for nearly thirteen years for
the killing of her husband, was re.
leased from the Berks County Jail
few days ago under pardon granted
by Gov. Tener. She was secretIy
taken from the city to begin life over
again. Mrs. Edwards was convicted
of first degree murder in 1901 ard
sentenced to be hanged, but four Gov.
errors declined to fix a day for her
execution.
After her conviction petitions were
circulated in many parts of the coun-
try and were signed by thousands OF
women, protesting against the execu-
ton of one of their sex William A
Stone, who is now trying to prevent
Harry X. Thaw from being returned
to New York State from New Ham,
shire, when Governor refused to fix a
date, and passed her case along to
Gov. Pennypacker, who let her death
warrant repose in a pigeon hole, as

Mrs. Edwards and a negro employ
ed with her husband in a quarry near
her home were convicted. The bUs-
band was found dead with his head
battered in. A short time after her
arrest Mrs. Edwards gave birth to q

ONLY ONE BEST
Paris People Give Credit Where Cred.

People of Paris who suffer with
weak kidneys and bad backs want a
kidnty remedy that can be depended

icine for the kidneys only, and one
that is backed by the willing testi-
mony of Pals people. Here's a case:

passages of the kidney secretions

be taken to make the cut parallel to
the main limb and avoid leaving a
stub. Avoid removing any limb over
three inches in diameter If possible.
as it takes considerable time for such
cut to heal over properly. Where
a large limb has been removed the
cut surface should be coated with a
heavy paint to protect it from loss Of
moisture and to aid in keeping fun
gous diseases in control. White lead
and oil are very good for this pur-
pose.
1t should be the aim of the primer
to head the old trees back. Trim
them down instead of up. In cutting
back large mbs-especially the ones
that go up from the center-always
cut them back to. lateral grOwths.
Where there is a considerable wood
growth it is not best to take out all
of the wood at once because there
tersprouts the following summer. Try
to prune a little every year and thus
avoid such danger.
A very convenient tool for pruning
is a saw similar to the ordinary meat
saw. The blade is. attached to a
swivel so that it may be turned at any
angle, thus allowing the operator to
make the more difficult cuts in the
crotches. A long and short handled
pair of shears are handy. Avoid the
use of the axe. 1t often takes nature
ten years to repair the damage done
in ten minutes with this crude in
strument.
The best time for pruning is in late
winter just before the sap starts to
flow. However, any time during the
months of February or March will do.
If the trees are pruned severely in
the early winter months there is some
danger from winter killing later on.
Try to get the work done and do not
wait until the exact time arrives.
