Iowa is great agricultural state
and it annually produces large crop
of young farmers that are looking
for new farm locations. Owing to
the high price of agricultural lands in

WILL BE CLEVER SHOW
"HOosier Heroine" Under Auspices of
Eastern Star Will Please-Fri-
day Evening, April 23rd.

The local people who will present
that sterling American comedy-dra-
ma, "The Hoosier Heroine" at the
Caughren Theatre Friday evening of
next week under the auspices of the
Order of the Eastern Star, are work
ing hard under the able direction of
Mrs. Leora Showalter. The various
parts are splendidly cast and the
Herald is certain that the play will
make distinct hit with the pople of
Sank Centre. Sparkling and spon-
taneous comedy abounds and the
heart interest throughout the entire
play is strong. Blood and thunder
will be conspicuous by it's absence.
The life story of Mirandy will appeal
to the audience who will rejoice in
her final victory. The domestic out
bursts of Alvira and Nathan demon
strate that even hen-pecked husband
will finally take the bit in his teeth
and make everyone step lively. There
is not poor character in the play, as
you will agree after enjoying it next
week.
The seat sale will open at the
theatre Wednesday morning, April Fl,
at 1890. There will be one price
only. so cents. The Star ladies have
not asked anything from the public in
long time, and as they are sure to
give big value for the investment,
they hope to see every seat sold.
Mrs. Showalter is not an entire
stranger to Sank Centre as she di-
rected the fremen benefit entertain
ment last Thanksgiving, which gave
splendid satisfaction. "The Hoosier
Heroine is not a burlesque and will
be presented with every attention to
detail.

THOSE who journey south to meet
4 the spring, with heads bedecked
In her honor, have a remarkably wide
range of choice in the new millinery.
In shape there are the diminutive pill
box, the numerous boat-shaped tur-
bans, all sorts and kinds of sailors,
many military styles, and lovely wide
brimmed hats in lacy straws and d.
a%phanous materials.
AS for trimmings, there are many
new departures. All sorts of gayly-
colored flowers (mostly smalD, a world
of e ornaments of ribbons mostly
narrow, and innumerable handmade
decorations of silk, straw, kid, feath-
ers and other things.
Handwork is featured in this new
millinery. Ornamental stitches in
n~eedlework, much exaggerated in size,
and cross-stitched designs are used
in finishing and applying trimming.
In fact, a large part of the decora-
tons are sewed fiat to the shape in
the form of applique, the sewing being
an important part of the scheme.
AL NOiOAo, p0oiuS tue D6duIliul SdnQ,
Irvine, and tan colors, there are many
white hats, including panamas, a gray
which is called 'battleship" gray,
without any good reason, and many
shades of blue and red that may be
called reserved" Black seems not
to be in the running.
Three Of the smaller hats are shown
in the picture. At the left is a narrow
brimmed sailor of white satin. 1t is
carefully made and distinguished by
a trimming Of small chrysanthemums
cut from white kid. and stems made
of kid also.
A dark gray hat OF satin belongs
among the boat-shaped models and is
trimmed with short peacock feathers
and ~leaf-shaped pieces of velvet sewed
fiat to the shape with the heavy
black embroidery silk. The buttonhole
stitch outlines the leaves, and the
leaves overlap the edges of the pea,
cock feathers holding them to- place.

A pretty blouse is shown here of
wool crepe showing shaded stripes in
yellow. brown, gray and occasional
fine lines of black. 1t is made with
a yoke and has long sleeves. A neat
collar of batiste finishes the neck.
Such a waist will wear a long time
without needing to be washed, and
will stand the washing, when it must
be done, without detriment to it's col
ors. That is, if care is taken, almost
any waist made can be successfully
washed.
Printed chiffons are liked for dres-
sier waists and are made up with
laces into the loveliest affairs. EN-
broidered voiles are dainty and more
lasting than chiffons. If one wishes a
sheer, fine, lacy-looking waist that
will last long enough to pay for any
amount of elaborate work in making
and decoration, fine cotton wolfe is Of
all fabrics the best to use.

This is something new that has been

found working on land exactly, like
that occupied by the others, but in
stead of renting his land he had bought
it and paid for it. He rented a little
extra land from me adjoining his, but
most of it he owned. | found his house
as neat as a pin, comfortably fur
nished, the larder well supplied, and
five bales of cotton under the shed. He
had provisions enough to last his fam

less than $50. 1t was afternoon by the

and Georgia cane strip. That was an
meal that would have done
credit to any household. Now, if a col

you can realize what can be done by
