FIAT particular kind of fur-cioth Cor | "iabric-fur,* as some people prefer to call it}, known as "Pomoire," is shown here made up into costume for the winter promenade. With high collar and cuffs of fitch fur and smart fasten- ing of cord and buttons, it reflects something of the military modes. But the jacket, or short coat, is strikingly original. topping off the straight scant underskirt and long full tunic with which all the world of fashion is more than familiar
 The coat merits study, as it is un like any other without departing from the lines that are decreed as correct for this season. It is double-breasted, shert, in front and sloping downward toward the sides. At the back it is heightened into a square tab which extends somewhat below the middle of the entire length of the figure. The sleeves are straight and loose and a iiiminutive cape extends over them and across the back. It terminates at each side of the front in the jacket.
 Following the line of the cape flat, turnover collar lies below the stand ing collar of fur. By this arrangement the fur collarette may be made sepa- tately and not always worn- There iG

mesh. The coloreu foundations are presumably to be chosen to match the gown, and for summer wear this is novelty that may flourish. The com. bination of black and white, worn with oxfords or slippers, ought to look es pecially well with white dresses.
 Another attractive color introduc tion is managed by weaving the foot and lower part of the leg in black silk and the upper part (beginning at the middle of the calf) in a color Stock. ings showing black combined with all the light colors make an appeal on the strength of pretty color combina. tions. All the visible portion of this hosiery, with either low or high shoes is black
 Silk hose in black and all colors embroidered with small flower designs in self-color are not new but arc always in favor. Occasionally smal blossoms in contrasting colors are tt be found on black stockings. Amons the finest hosiery smart white clock | ing appears as a finish on black silk But the strongest tendency of tn, fashion is away from contrasts in tn matter of decorations.

MOT many novelties in hosiery are AV in evidence, fashion inclining still to favor the plain, firmly woven stock ing of silk. But for those who like aahttfe eccentrieity occasionally some in the weaving of hose, and for dressy wear there is something to report of hosiery woven in lace patterns and in two-color combinations.
 Plain hose of black or colored silk with heel, foot and toe re-enforced, and hose similarly woven in lisle thread or cotton, of finely twisted thread, are the only varieties that prove interest ing to the great majority of women. It is likely, however, that the new silk hose woven in lace pattern over the instep and ankle will come in for much favorable consideration with the advent of spring. Stockings of this kind show panel of openwork, usu- ally in striped effects, at the front, that is very pretty.
 The catchiest of the novelties in silk hose is a double stocking. The underhose is of plain silk in color White, light blue, flesh, lavender, and pink or even light green, supplies the color background. Over this is g stocking of very open-meshed net ir black. When flesh or pink is useG for the foundation it is hardly no ticeable when the stocking is on and the effect is that of an open meshed net stocking with the pinl eesh of the leg showing through eacl

Children love this fruit laxative, and nothing else cleanses the tender stomach, liver and bowels so nicely.

Listen, Mother. See if tongue is coated, then give a teaspoonful of California Syrup of Figs,' and in few hours all the constipated waste, sour bile and undigested food passes out of the sys- tenn, and you have well child again.
 Millions of mothers give California Syrup of Figs because it is perfectly harmless: children love it, and it nev- CT fails to act on the stomach, liver and bowels.

MONEY MADE IN WAR KITES
Ohio Boy Makes Toys Armed With Glass to Destroy Enemies-Mate-
 rial Is Carefully Selected.

In a little attic workshop in Cleve- land a twelve-year-old boy spends his spare hours turning out big, ferocious- looking "war" kites. which he sells to his playmates, says an exchange.
 The boy is Stuart Jenney, a seventh grade pupil. Stuart caught the war spirit almost from the day he read that the European powers had de- clared hostilities.
 For several years he has been the most skillful kite maker of his district and had sold many kites to his play mates, but he has abandoned the con ventional types for the fighting kind.
 Stuart's flyers" soar skyward in focks after school hours, pirates of the air, their long tails armed with jagged bits of glass designed to cut the cords of rival kites that are not maneuvered cleverly enough to dodge their foes.
 For overparticular strategists Stuart designs and makes special warriors, collecting, of course, special prices for these models He carefully selects the wood, linen and paper that go into their construction, and will not let kite leave his factory" until he has personally tested it.
 Kite battles mean more orders, TOT once cord is severed while the Kite is sailing high, that particular pirate reaches the earth . mass of broken sticks and torn paper beyond repair

SALTS IF BACKACHY OR
 KIDNEYS TROUBLE YOU
Eat Less Meat if Your Kidneys Aren't Acting Right or If Back Hurts or
 Bladder Bothers You.

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eat ing too much meat, says well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they be- come sort of paralyzed and loggy When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them like you relieve your bowels; removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue Is coated. and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy. full of sediment. channels oft en get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 Either consult good, reliable physi- clan at once or get from your pharma- cist about four ounces of lad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutrahze acids in the urine so it no longer irri- tates, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes delightful. effer- vescent Whitewater drink.-Adv.

Two years ago I was very sick and after being treated by several of the best physicians in Clinton, did not seem to get any better. I was confined to my bed. Seeing Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root adver- tised, resolved to give it trial. After using it for three weeks, found was gaining nicely, so I continued until l had taken a number of bottles. I am now restored to health and have con tinued my labors. My system was full of Uric acid, but Swamp-Root cured me entirely. I am sixty years old.

cORN-CLUB WORK OF VALUE
increasing Interest and Enthusiasm in This Labor of Boys and Girls
 Which Does Much Good.
By O. H. BENSON.)

(By U. Il. bEINSO4N.J
 It is a well-estab1ished fact that both play and contest interests per form a very important part in the processes of education and have much to do in creating efficiency for man in the equation of social and indus trial life.
 The corn-club work is a very impor- tant factor in the economy of the farm in directing boys who live in ru- ral districts in the business as Q profitable and notable profession. The way in which the club work takes hold of a boy is quite remarkable, and from the enthusiasm created by the club work and contests, greater inter- est in farm life is sure to develop.
 We need the boys for the present efficiency of the farm, and we must have their work, their leadership, and their influence for the future if Amer ican agricultural and rural interests are to endure and contribute as they should to human comfort and pros perity.
 Boys corn-club work should be con- structive and permanent, and in or | der that it may be so the following lines of contest work are suggested to the club membership. These con- tests should offer some relaxation from the main line of work and should be practical and recreative as well as in- structive. The following are few of the objects of corn-club contests:
