MAKE NEGLIGEES OF CREPON
With Artistic Hand Embroidery. They
Are Among the Prettiest of
Garments.

Lovely little negligees can be made
of the crepon that has so taken hold
of the popular fancy. These negligees
are very easily Numbered, and though
attractive are inexpensive. Hand en-
broidery is no longer the arduous
task that II was several years ago,
for some Of the modern stitches are
so delightfully."- easy and so quickly
worked that several articles can now
be embroidered in the time that 1t
formerly took to embroider one.
What could be prettier than a pale
blue crepon embroidered in white
daisies and green faliage? Both
daisies and foliage can be done in

OHIO'S SECOND M'KINLEY

The second Mckinley as his
friends call him, Frank b. Willis. the
new governor Of Ohio, is product OF
the farm. While he is not "self-edu-
Gated" in the sense that Lincoln was,
Willis toiled hard to help pay his way
through school ard college. His en-
tire life has been one of toll and en-
deavor, the conservation of energy
not being one of his cardinal virtues.
Willis is a Buckeye through and
through. He was born in Lewis Cen
ter, Delaware county, December rs.
1872, and worked on his fathers farm
while attending the common school
at Lewis Centert and while going
through the Galena high school in the
same county.
Willis is one of the big men phys
ically in Ohio politics. His friends
take pride in declaring that he. has

Authorities say that a farm horse
of medium size will thrive on ten
pounds of hay per day and that eight
cen pounds a day is excessive and
should not be allowed. 1t is better to
keep somewhere near the happy medi-
um. A good rule to go by is to allow
one pound of hay to each one hundred
