CONFIDENCE is a great boor

~ONFIDENCE is a great boon
I to humanity-the confidence
we have In our mother. our
brothers and sisters and our loyal
and sincere friends-but over-indui-
gence of confidence 10 an unholy
habit which we always pay for dearly.
II we were perfect we would not
be human, but. being human, we must
draw strength from our errors, once
we recognize and have the courage to
face them, desiring to Danish them
from our lives.
But when we do make q mistake.
let Us correct 1t and then let ii lie
within ourselves. Sometimes when
we have no dear ones TO go TO. we
are carried away by the curiosity of
our acquaintance. which we. in a
confidential mood, mistake for sym

gathers speed as il rolls down hill,

would only listen to the dictates OF

her that her own salvation rests with

cannot keep their little tongues from

New Fabric Gloves.


In the last few seasons there has
been an enormous improvement In the
heavy cotton gloves. designed TO imi-
tate channels or doeskin. At fret.

woven, so creamy in color and so
thick piled that 1t il difficult TO tell
them from the genuine skin. wheth-
er they are called '1eatherette. 4"
Cham oisette," or other similar names,
these washable gloves bear an as
tonishing resemblance to the real
thing. Moreover. they arc more pill
able after being washed than are the
gloves made of skins, and they wear
longer. a. the chamois and doeskins
must have the soap left In them to
prevent their getting stiff. and this
tends to make them wear less well.
For some years the fabric gloves
came in pure white and strong vel
low. Now, however, a creamy tone
Ia attained by lining white gloves with
deep yellow, which shades softly
through to the surface. These gloves
also come In q pale putty shade, as
well as darker gray, tan and biscuit.
Fancy stitching add further to the
genuine leather appearance CT the fab

and tan, and white and tan stitchery.

Later he suggested that the hypno-

ham Is the latest novelty in this COM
munity. C. c. Francis who has ranch
near here. Is the producer. Last sum-
mer his apricot crop was going 70
waste because the market was g'utted.
so he fed the apricots to his hogs.
He butchered two shoats the other
day. They each tipped the beam, at
245 pounds. He got fifteen gallons
of lard. seven pounds of sausage, four
splendid hams. some spare ribA a
quantity of side meat. eight pigs feet.
and 100 pounds of soap out of the kill.
The hogs were carried through the
summer and fall on waste fruit. and
this winter they were finished on
oranges and cornmeal sicp. Mr.. Fran
els declares that the high cost of iiv-
ing won't worry him for a while at
least.
