Just at first our leading furriers re-
fused, with indignation, to use rabbit
skins in any form, writes Paris cor
respondent. But little by little these
autocrats have been forced to give way.
Dyed rabbit is the craze of the hour.
This is an undeniable fact.
And it is certain that chinchilla-dyed
rabbit is very pretty little fur. 1t is
so short that it looks almost like plush,
but then it is deliciously soft and
supple. This fur was introduced at the
end of last year by several prominent
mannequins from famous Paris houses.
They appeared on the Grande PLACE Of
Biarritz, wearing the loveliest tricot
sweaters which had large collars and
deep cuffs made of some strange gray
fur.
Everyone asked, "what is it?'' And
it was difficult to arrive at a correct
answer. In this way general curiosity
was aroused in connection with dyed
rabbit, with the result that no one felt
really astonished when it was as1-
nounced as ''the correct thing"

VARIED EFFECT IN TRIMMING
Present Styles Lend Themselves Real
ly to Adornment That Means So
Much to the Appearance.

The present use of pocket ideas in
dresses gives the opportunity for dec
orative motifs and landings, and the
new polonaise and tunic ideas require
an edging to complete their effective
hess. For this purpose straight-strand
silk fringes are used. Wool fringe is
also applied to the bottom of dark wool
skirts. Beaded tassels, ball fringes ard
drops are used to finish sashes and the
deep corners of collars.
Beaded fringes in new colors will
trim the new evening dresses, jet be-
ing used on black evening gowns. Bead
ed novelties in rich Indian colors are
very smart. Ball fringes and boleros
in these shades are handsome. A new
garniture is for use over skirts having
plain hips and gathered or full backs.
For party frocks pasted shades are
used A new idea in silver trimming
is the use of a very large f1let mesh

The department of agriculture has
Issued a Farmers Bulletin-No. 731-
designed to convey to the farmer, in
a brief and simple manner, the natural
history of the true army worm, cater
pillar which from time to time becomes
enormously destructive to growing ce-
reals, and sometimes to forage crops !;
to give him a summary of the informa-
ton necessary for it's control; and es-
pecially to urge upon him the necessity
for constant vigilance in the combat
with this insect.
The true army worm is often con-
fused in the public mind with the fall
army worm, overflow worm," or
"grass worm," as it is known in some
of the extreme southern states. The
latter insect always originates in the

"War promotes fancy negligees,"
reads an article in one of the daily pa

until one read down the column, then
it could be readily understood, and
one must acknowledge that such
seems to be the case. Due to war,
it has been impossible to procure
enough workers to operate the ma

quired number of negligees, thus wom-

But now the women of the Philip
pines have been busy with other wom-

the result that a negligee unless it has
much hand work on it is not of any
great value. Many women who desire
to forget that war is raging around

These skirts are almost as wide as ever
but they are made of such supple
stuffs that the folds fall straight from
waist to hem.
Redfern is using a great deal of fine
blue or black serge; and he is making
lovely morning suits in pure white

With pure white tailored suits the
most effective boots are those made of
supple black patent leather laced up
the fronts, not at the sides. These boots
have high Cuban heels and they are ex-

iennes, and now earlier is showing
many close-6tting models which look
like inverted bowls and which cling
quite close to the head and hair.
The toque shown in my drawing was
made of skunk-brown velvet and the
trimming consisted of band of skunk
which was passed round the toque and
then twisted into very high, wired
loop directly in front. 1 have seen a
similar toque made Of rich violet
| panne and trimmed with q band of
dark brown mink. earlier is making
some uncommon and charming toques
of rich brocaded satins which have
been traced over with metallic threads.

trimmed with narrow bands of fur and

troduced at the back, close to the hair.

The true army worm usually appears
in the fields very suddenly, and i,
seems quite certain that the moths al
times fly in great numbers for many
miles in the direction of the prevail
ing winds, and alight in body to de
posit their eggs at some place favor
able to the development of their off
spring. This fact accounts for the sud
den appearance of the army worm il

Block Patterns in Color.

Block and check patterns are very
much seen among the new upholsteries
for this season. They are to be EN-.
ployed in all parts of the house, as
well as for veranda cushions. Thera
are enormous block patterns in black
and orange, green and white, brown
and white, ETC., and there are much
smaller patterns in duller shades which
are more suited to conservative taste.
Gray and white in the small block is
very charming. The gray is really
most lavender. In these small block
patterns there is a great variety in
color combination.

Pupa of True Army Worm.

such as the several varieties of millet,
which suffer severely during outbreaks
of the insect. Wheat in it's unripe
stages, corn, oats and rye seem to be
preferred in the order named, while
in some portions of the country alfalfa

yer is attacked, but such occurrences
are rare.

South and travels northward as the
summer advances. The western army
worm also is occasionally mistaken for
the true army worm, but it occurs in
destructive abundance only throughout
the regions west of the Mississippi
river. The true army worm is prob
ably a native of North America, al
though it is also found in South Amer
lea. 1t occurs throughout most Of the
United States east of the Rocky noun
tains, including the states bordering
the western banks of the Mississippi
and the Missouri river. 1t also has
been found in New Mexico, Arizona
and California.
The loss in money to the farmer by
army worms in the past has been ex-
ceedingly great, and although no exact
estimate is possible, it is safe to say
that in the eastern states alone many
millions Of dollars worth of grain and
forage crops have disappeared down
their throats during the past thirty
years. The army worm Injuries crops
In but one way, and that is by eating
away all the tender portions of the
leaves, the immature seed, and sprouts,
and when numerous it may even de-
YOUR the plants down to the very
ground. The more important and by
far the most conspicuous injury is al
ways inflicted by the nearly full-grown
caterpillar, whose greed and capacity
for food are almost unbelievable. The
pupa takes no food. The moth sub
sists principally upon the nectar gath
cred from flowers.
The army worm feeds by preference
upon grasses, both wild and cultivat-
ed; next, upon the grasslike grains

Harsh Criticism.

Lord Kitchener was very harshly
criticized the last two years of his life,
but he could not complain, for he was
always a very harsh critic himself.
Thus, when Lord Kitchener went to
South Africa to take charge of the
Boer war, one of the generals whom
he was supplanting said to him:
"Well. how do you propose to reor-
ganize the transportP
"Reorganize it?' said Kitchener.
