RAT EIJRS

From Paris comes word that the
so-called rat" furs are being used
for collars and cuffs on new suits.
Russian ret, muskrat, and other wood
and field rodents would ha. div rec
Ognlze their sturdy pelts after they
have been worked and dyed by the
skillful furrier. Many of the collars
are not as high as the muffler style
of last year, and the trimming bands
are narrow and ribbon like These
small furs look we'll.
Ever SO rIuch ermine seems tc be-
used for scarf. The little tails are
rot used to .ruicate the lcnsth Of the
animals body as in bygone years.
They make a fringe on the short
capes or the wide scarf ends or out
line a collar.
Standard pelts, like seal, broadtail
and mole, are again to be the vogue
for long fur coats. A novelty, and a
very lovely one, is the kolinsky fur
No''e' say tHS 1tiuidiisdpoliS news.
| kolinsky, better known to our grand
mothers under the name of red sable,
looks something between skunk and
Russian sable, so that the coats are
luxurious looking garments.
Chinchilla is seen here and there
in such way that one will not be
surprised to come across it next VIM
ter as a high class fur for fur sets,
and collar and cuff trimmings on long
coats and wraps. Petit gris-a gray
squirrel-seen in summer sets, will
doubtless also be worn, at least as
a children's fur, for which it is par
ticularly suited.
Bear makes jaunty fur collars. and
cuffs on seal coats. All the fur coats
are long, almost dress hem length.
Many of the pretties are belted Most
have some sort of hip depth seam,
the lower part being fulled on slightly
to give !; godet ripple to the lower
part.
1t looks like winter of flat scarfs
and shoulder capes, instead of animal
boas, which have been so long fash

SOFT SHELLED EGGS

The frequent laying of soft-shelled
eggs occasion considerable market
loss to the poultrymen each year. The
yolk of the egg is formed when it
breaks from the ovary and drops in
to place, probably within a few min
utes; in about three hours time the
albumen is formed The next sec
ton of the oviduct secretes the she'll
membrane. requiring about three
hours. The egg is forced into the
shell gland where the lime of the egg
is deposited, and within l 2to "a
hours the egg is laid, anything hav-
ing tendency to make the egg pass
too rapidly through the lower two
thirds of the oviduct would cause the
hen to lay soft shelled eggs.
The first cause of soft shelled eggs
is that the bird is too fat. Instead of
the egg being controlled by firm mus
cles it merely slips through flabby
mass without getting its she'll on
Birds should be made to scratch hard
in a clean dry straw litter for grain
and the ration should not be over
fattening.
The second cause is lack of lime
in the hens ration. Clam, oyster
beach shell and grit help supply this
The third cause is the forcing Of
hens for too frequent egg production

THE YELLOW MENACE"

For months public men have been
sounding warning against the dan
ger to this country from "Across the
Pacific" but it has remained for Louis
Tracy, the world-famed author of
"The Wings of the Morning." etc., to
crystalize in "The Yellow Menace"
the celebrated sixteen episode of The
Unity Sales Corporation. The immin-
ent peril of Oriental invasion into
concrete form. In the character of
Ali Singh, as portrayed by Edwin
Stevens, the eminent dramatic star,
Mr.. Tracy has timned dominating
power, urged on by black hatred
toward the white races. Briefly sum-
med up the first episode is as follows:
Unrest among the yellow race, which
forms the predominating population
of Han-kow, China, results in revo-
luton, with its ultimate object the eX
termination of the white colonists. Ali
Singh, the all powerful, pretends to
uuell the revolt and assures the Cau-
casian colony Of his deep friendship.
Utterly duped by his suave and Ori-
entail cunning the trusting "white dev-
lis" cheer him. But the fires Of
treachery are smoldering and Ali
Singh sails in disguise for America
to carry out his plan Of establishing
the Yellow men as rulers Of the West
ern World. The first episode term
mates with a thrilling and vivid scene
in which The Mongoian Demon
strikes the first startling blow at the
country he intends to destroy and dom
mate. Like bolt from the blue,
"The Yellow Mennce" descends upon
sleeping America. The second cpl
sode reveals even more striking and
exciting scenes in which "The Yellow
Menace" wakes in power, and finds
Ali's white victims more helpless than
ever
The first episode Of "The Yellow
Menace" will appear at the Gibson
Opera Touse Monday, and Tuesday,
October 1st and 2nd, and will appear
each week thereafter

in animal boas along with all the new
fiat fur set styles.
A. new American fabric, pontine, is
interesting because it is strictly orig
inal and can be used effectively in so
many ways in the new styles. 1t is
the leathered side of the fabric which
is the new note. The reverse side
may be of almost any material. This
pontine side looks like a heavy lamb
skin and is very pliable, so that it is
easily used for varied sartorial gar
ments, top coats, wraps, dresses, eve
trimming on autumn suits.
1t is in reality a process that can
be applied to any woven fabric-silk,
satin, wool, worsted or cotton-with
the result that on one side there is a
waxlille leather finish and on the
other side the surface of the fabric
treated 1t is reversible material,
but unlike most reversible fabrics, it
combines extraordinary good looks
with exceptional usefulness. For in
stance, a motor wrap may be of this
pontine leather on the outside while
the lining, which is really only the
reverse side of the goods instead OF
separate lining, may be of satin.

WOMEN URGED TO REGISTER

All Montana women who are elig-
ible to vote are urged to register at
once, according to an appeal just is
sued by the Montana Good Govern
ment Club.
"The new electorate must not be
Indifferent to the big political issues
of the day." said Mrs. Harvey Colt,
of Big Timber, chairman of the or
ganization. "These issues have a
direct bearing upon our homes and
upon the environment in which our
children must be brought up. 1t is
therefore important that the women
take active part in the coming cleo
ton, and that they make an effort
to vote intelligently for such officers
as will best represent their interests
in both local and national affairs.
"The transactions Of congress may
seem far removed from our local in
terests. but study of the candidates
for congress, and study Of their plat
forms as individuals and as partisans
will indicate the Importance of vot-
ing for men and women who have our
highest interests at heart. | am
confident that the great majority of
our women will study carefully the
qualifications of all the candidates for
office, and will vote intelligently on
election day"
