There is no telling where the use
fulness of the new shadow laces will
end. Besides their prominence In
gowns and blouses they have been
exploited in the realm of millinery and
by those who make all the sheer and
dainty things for boudoir wear ard the
undermuslins of today.
These laces are not imitation of
handmade designs, but something
which their designers are adapting
patterns to the weaving of cotton into
laces by machinery. The precision and
efficiency of machinery are factors to
be considered, and they enable the de-
signers to achieve the ARREST fabrics
ever woven, in patterns incredibly in
tricate and fascinating.
In the good old days of yore only
kings and queens or others of princely
fortune could wear laces, but now
everyone may own these beautiful
stuffs, because the price is so mod
crate.
A pretty bolero and n dainty blouse
are shown in the picture. Lace flounc-
ing is used for the bolero, which Is tn
be worn over a corset cover of lace
or net or one of thin wash silk. The
lace is fulled across the front into the
shoulder seams, and these and all 9TH
err seams are finished with feather
stitching done in heavy embroidery
silk. An edging finishes the fronts,
also the collar and sleeves, and 10 set
on with feather-stitching. The collar
is stayed with fine wire supports to
stand up-more or less-at the back
OF the neck.
An all-over pattern is used for the
dainty blouse at the right of the pic
ture, although flouncings are woven in
all-over patterns with narrow edgings
included, which will serve the same
purpose. This simple blouse Is cut

There are evening gowns and eve
ming gowns. Some of them are naive
ly simple, made of taffeta that glim-
mers in light colors, or Of vapory lace
over net or chiffon. Less simple but
quite as charming are those of taffeta
yelled with lace or net, and they
make up large part of the whole
number. Their contemplation entices
one to follow up the line until those
splendid ones are found In white lace
and tulle or crepe de chine. The SHIN
mer of satin and tho sparkle of pail
lettes are called upon with every 9TH
er enticement In material and decora-
ton to achieve the distinction that IL
required.
Always among any collection there
are examples of black in which tulle
or lace Is frightened with jet. Some
times 1t is black over white, or a col
or, but more often II is all black, as in
the gown Of tulle shown In the pic
ture. In this model there is no end
to the fullness of the skirt, with its
eccentric inverted plating of tulle ex-
tending half way up at the front, back
and sides and about the bottom.
There is an under petticoat of satin
messaline and small bodice which
should appear under the drapery of
tulle, but has been omitted to show
plainly the management of the fabric
In the bodice. This and the angel
sleeves are edged with little jet beads.

CATE IN MARKETING FRUITS
II PIums and Apples Reach Market In
Bruised or Dirty Condition They
Bring Small Prices.

(By w. G. BRIEFLY, Minnesota Expert
ment Station.)
Only little extra time and skill are
required to market plums and apples
properly. If they reach the market
poorly graded and bruised or in dirty,
broken packages, they cannot COM
mand good prices. Every farm paper
advertises the clean, neat packages
necessary to show fruits advanta-
geously.
Pick with care. Don't wait for
plums to soften or apples to become
mealy. They should be well colored
and large. but still firm. A soft plum
will not stay up in the market and
neither will-the price. Fall apples may
be picked when full size is reached
without regard to color, or the color
may be allowed to develop IL desired,
but the fruit must not be allowed to
soften or drop II 1t is to be handled
profitably.
Discard all bruised, stung or mis-
shapen plums and grade as No. those
of good color, and as No. 2 those in
ferior In coloring. Sort according to
size, so that every package Is uniform
throughout in size of plums which it
contains. The same suggestions apply
to apples. especial care being taken to
discard those that are wormy, scabby,
bruised, or stung. Uniformity in color
and size Of fruit and size Of package,
combined with neatness and cleanli-
ness of package, will add greatly to
the market price Of the fruit.

Peculiar War Honors.

A historian of the last war with Mex
leo states that the Mexican officials
were not content with bestowing the
honors of war on officers and privates
who had shown valor In battle, but
brevetted towns and villages as well.
A hamlet was raised to village when
its inhabitants played a good part In
the war, according to this writer, and
village to a city. Thus the city of
Alvarado rose from the village of AL
varado by special decree issued as a
reward for the bold attitude of its resi-
dents toward the invaders.

II will not take the average woman
long to figure out that the small cost
Of these bodices Is about nothing as
compared to their beauty. They are
SO simple in construction that anyone
can make them. 1t Is in the selection
of pretty patterns in the laces that the
secret of success lies, and 1t is a pleas
ure to know that these lovely little be

METHOD FOR COOLING CREE
Task Should BE Performed at OrGa
After Separatlon-Good Plan to
Place Can In Cold Water.
CBy PROF. c. LARsEN)

Cool the cream at once after separa.
ton. This can be done by placing the
cream can in a tank of fresh, cold
water. A good plan is to have the
water used for stock run through this
milk cooler before it reaches the gen.
eral stock water tank. This method
cools the cream during all seasons.
and in addition it prevents freezing
during the winter Do not put the
can cover on tightly. A loose cover
allows the animal odor TO pass of,
and at the same time prevents tho
dust from getting into the cream.
Never allow freshly skinned warm
cream to be mixed with the previous
ly SKINNED cold cream until the for
mer has been well cooled. The warm
cream causes the germs to develop,
and they sour and spoil the cream.

Ends Of Guest Towels.

AS If the tiny towels intended for
the drop-in guests weren't bright and
attractive enough, an ingenious girl
has added color to the little towels for
her hope chest by attaching two
inch hem of striped galatea to each
end of every towel. When pink-and-
white striped galatea is used the little
floral spray on the towel Is embroid-
cred in white and pink. Whatever
color appears in the stripes, the same
is repeated in the design. In some in
stances hemstitching is employed :.
join the striped material to the buck

Fiuhtlnu Plant Lice,

The only way OF fighting the aphis
or plant lice is to cover them with
an oily substance which causes their
early death by clogging the pores of
their bodies, therefore kerosene emul-
sion is often used as a remedy. for
plant lice. Nothing like heavy oils
could be used, as they would destroy

THE MAN WHO LIVED

In far away yesteryear two men
won fame in the art of letters.
The First Man withdrew himself to
the heights that he might the better
look out over the valley below and
watch the folk who took the days
work seriously. He felt contempt for
their struggles and strivings, and
never failed to ridicule the smallness
OF their lives-their inconseQuential
aims and ambitions-but even while
he ridiculed 1t gave him pleasure to
dazzle them with the message which
flowed from his pen In style so bril-
liant that the folk In the valley
1ikened his brain to crystal foun-
tain because Of its wonderful glimmer
and glitter, and The First Man was
pleased with the smile.
He withdrew himself yet further
from the common life Of the valley
below and gave himself utterly to a
new work which his publishers prom
Used should make his name live for
ever, and when 1t was ready 1t did in
deed dazzle the world with it's bril-
lance. 1t was saturated with smart
epigrams; scintillated with wit;
teemed with cynicism, and ridiculed
all there was Of sentimental charm in
the world. From one end of the land
to the other the book was read with
admiration, and critics said The First
Man was the greatest genius of his
age. His cleverly turned phrases
pointed with ridicule the ordinary way
OF human kind and made the people
laugh SO boisterously that they for
got that their own simple lives fur
nished material for his scathing sar-
casm and Joined their voices to the
widespread praise accorded the clever
writer
In the valley below, where lived the
folk whose aims and ambitions The
First Man despised, The Second Man
worked out his salvation In simpler
manner. He, too, was a writer, but
his books created small stir. He had
no gift Of brilliance, and so gentle was
the heart Of him that he could not
have turned a clever phrase at the
cost of human hurt. But he knew
the folk who lived in the valley, and
he did his work among them. He did
aot despise their aims and ambitions,
and his heart was large with sympa-
thy for their common strlvings and
SORROWS. And most Of all he under
stood them and he loved them, and
the messages he sent out to the world
had their birth In the wellspring OF
their perfectly useful and normal
lives.
The Second Mans critics said that
he took life too seriously; that his
work was deficient in humor and over
burdened with sentiment, but just the
same his books lay beside those Of
The First Man in the libraries and
went into many a household where
thu name of The First Man was never
spoken.
And after a while God called both
The First Man and The Second Man
to render unto him an account Of
their talents, and the admirers of each
we're left 10 keep their memories alive
