With eggs at seven cents each, Mrs.
Lionel Guest, daughter of the late John

try farms.
An enthusiast on poultry breeding,
Mrs. Guest, has started crusade to
give the hen chance She is telling
the authorities that every publics spark
should have its chicken farm with a
woman expert in charge to show the
public how to get the best out OF
bjddy.
Green park and st. James park
near Buckingham palace; Hyde park
and other expanses of public green
sward have been selected by the
American woman as the best locations
upon which to try the poultry expert
ments.
Mrs. Guest declares she has proved
her theories by successful poultry
farming in Canada and emphasizes
that British hens are equal to the task
Of providing sufficient eggs if enough
people would become interested in hen
culture.
She has expressed her Willingness
to keep poultry within the yards of
her own house near the fashionable

tions permitting.

Hats for wear at the afternoon con-
cert or reception or any of those af-
fairs which make opportunity for wom-
en- to look their prettiest, provide the
milliner the best chance in the world
for displaying her art. Such hat is
the browning glory of the toilette and
comes in for more attention than any
other detail of it. No one can fail to
appreciate that artists in headwear
have made good this season with hats
that are joy to the beholders.
These hats are usually of materials
that put them in the demiseason
class. That is, they belong to no par
ticuiar season and many of them sug-
gest sunny skies and southern climes.
This adds to their interest to the tour
list, who finds plenty of uses for
them.
Two wonderfully attractive models
are shown in the picture above. One
is an odd, quadrangular shape with
black satin brim and silver lace crown
posed over brilliant green satin lin
ing it is trimmed with ornaments
made of ostrich fibers and narrow
faille ribbon.
The other hat is turbanlike shape

never have any time now except in
the afternoon, when my energies run
rather low from the exertions of the
morning In the evenings my room
will be full Of people-women and
the schoolboys-who come to talk
with me or to sit quietly in the pleas
ant lighted room. l sit and sew in
my steamer chair, and all the time,
my dears, there is the effort to pass
the barriers of kind. We were talk
ing so last night-about the common
uses of life-when a certain young
fellow who had been listening with
sad attention, leaned his head on
his hand with kind of sad weari-
ness and said directly to me, across
the heads Of the others and the cur
rent of our talk-across my effort
and his effort-"How we differ!" l
cannot tell you how much there was
Of baked endeavor and of relinquish-
ment in his eyes; because, you see
and he saw, better than you can
the difference is SO much to his dis
dvantage.-Baltimor American.

What with the abundance of exQuis-
lite laces, run with silver or gold
threads, and the pliancy of silver and
gold tissue, it looks like an easy mat
ter to construct an enticing evening
gown. These tinsel laces are COM
bined with silk nets, chiffon, and other
laces, and the number of beautiful
dancing and party frocks employing
them testifies to their fitness for such
use. The secret of success seems to
lie In knowing when to quit. They
are not to be too lavishly displayed,
but either to be used sparingly in
decoration of other airy fabrics or to
be yelled and softened under trans
parent stuffs. One has always to be-
ware Of too much glitter.
For fine management of silver tissue
and tinsel lace, combined with chif-
fon and silk lace, the beautiful gown
shown In the picture is testimonial
to its designers artistic and good
sense. A narrow flounce of silver tin
sci lace is set on the inside of the
bottom of the skirt, and silver tissue
makes the short-sleeved bodice, which
Is partly yelled with chiffon. The
body of the garment is Of white chif-
fon with wide white silk lace forming
the sleeves and a part of the over
skirt drapery. The bodice is shapely
and modest with the chiffon over
drapery forming short jacket effect
fastened at the front with a silk rose.

SALOON AND LABOR PROBLEM.

We make no claim that closed
saloon will settle the labor problem;
we do not believe it will. We do affirm
that there never will be found solu-
ton for the labor problem that ignores
the saloon and allows it to continue,
whether run by the individual or by
the brewer for profit or run by the gov
eminent without profit. Labor cannot
carry 100000 rum shops on its back
and prosper under any system.
The kingdom Of labor will not have
come when the door of the saloon is
shut; there will still be industrial
wrongs to right and other economic
problems to solve; but the largest sim
gle immediate contribution toward
that consummation, the swiftest relief
that can be applied, is the abolition Of
the liquor traffic in the United States.
1t ia the one thing that as the barrier
to all other reform must be removed.
To every son of toll who is ground
beneath the millstones of low wages
and high cost Of living, we have but
one message. ''In the name Of God and
home and native land, rise up and vote
for prohibition Clinton Howard.
