Gossip that Costs Money

The State Public Utilities Commission of Col
orado has been asked to prevent women in the
southern part of the state from nonopolizing rur-
al telephone lines with neighborhood gossip. A
witness before the commission said farmers were
unable to transact business over the telephone
and requested a remedial order
Women living in isolated parts of the rural
districts use the telephone as medium of inter-
course. We cannot blame them for gossiping ov-

When this condition takes place man
becomes susceptible to the disease
germs that are ever present in the
atmosphere. The greatest safety is
to be found in keeping up the resist
ance to the germs by regular periods
OF play What most people regard as
play is an occupation that they are
mot required to perform and it would
seem from a psychological standpoint
to give greater rest, II it be an roc
cupation that Is particularly useless
from the standpoint of producing
economic results. Therefore there
should be time set aside in the work

Try The Times Awhile.
1T IS NECESSARY
THAT YOU SETTLE


Owing to the strenuous times
in the coal business, it is neces-
sary that l ask all parties owing
me to please call and settle be-
fore January 4, 1913, either by
note or cash. The war has revolu-
tionized all kinds Of business. The
following is a copy of a stjcker
attached to the invoice for the
last car of coal I bought from the
wholesaler:
Owing to the present coal
situation, we are compelled to
place our sales on a strictly cash
basis. Please remit Immediately
upon receipt of this invoice"
So you can see from the above
that it would be an impossibility
for a. dealer to carry long stand
ling accounts. If you expect to
receive good service and coal, we
must ask for quick settlements, as
from now on will have to pay for
my coal in advance.

at the top with an immense handker-
chief collar THAT fastens on the left
shoulder. Thtse capes are lined with
brightly figured Chinese and Japanese
silks.
Another distinct change in fashions
is the insistence upon capes instead %
topcoats. Nine. PaQuin and Nine. GeorE-
cite wore these capes in Paris All
through the winter and featured them
at the spring openings. The house Of
Cheruit also turned out a goodly num-
ber of them, with all the peculiar tricks
that belong to this little group of de-
signers.
The only topcoats that the smart
houses offer are for sport use. and they
are made of colored velveteen and
stockinet jersey in bold, gay designs.
For other hours and purposes, the cape
is offered instead of the toPcoat. 1t is OF
serge lined with figured crepe: il il Of
satin lined with horizon blue or fiamin
go pink: il is of Chinese blue woolen
jersey lined with gray. and 1t is in gray
lined with pink, blue or yellow.

| silk floss and bullion threads. and
again. they are made of Chantilly, Span
| ish or filet lace. unlined and ungirdled.
! There is no limit set for the usage of
/ figured silk for Innings and facings, and
/ the capes offer excellent advantages
for this fashion. This trick has been
| tried often before. but 1t never had
such instant success as this season.
! In connection with the fact that
| double-faced materials are in high
| fashion for the first time in decade or
so, this introduction of printed fabrics
| for Innings fits in with the general
| scheme of making clothes. The top of
| a belt will be lined with a gayly colored
| Chinese design and rolled over like
| cuff. Immense handkerchief collars and
| wide cuffs of figured crepe or silk will
| be placed on coats and gowns in solid
! color. This helps to brighten the stu
alton. With an influx of gray and beige
materials the general effect would have
been saddening, If the designers had
not thought of the double-faced fabrics
and the widespread use of Gayly colored
materials.
BY the way. the introduction of the
| southern bandanna cottons has been
one of the results of Americans looking
| to their own country for ideas to in
| corporate into French designs. A lead
| ing milliner of New York got in the
| southern resorts the inspiration to in
| troduce the brilliant cottons of that
country into fashionable apparel. Moth
ing would more delight the southern
mills than a widespread use of the ma
terials which they make in such beautiful
| designs and such remarkably good weav.

Bobby Coon Discovers Another
Neighbor.

Bobby Coon found Buster Bear as
good as his word. He didn't bother Bobby
bit. In fact, he was the best kind of
neighbor because he attended to his
own affairs and didn't NEEDLE with
Bobby's at all. Sometimes when he was
passing Bobby's house he would stop
long enough to wish Bobby good luck in
his deep, grumbly. rumbly voice, and
Bobby always wished him good luck in
return He took special pains to do this
and to be polite about it. You know,
nothing is lost by being polite
So Bobby soon felt quite happy and
safe and contented in his new home and
began to spend very much Of his time In
getting acquainted with the neighbor-
hood. He would wait until he had seen
Buster Bear start off for another part Of
the Green Forest and then he would
come out and prowl around to his hearts 8
content. At first he thought that Buster
Bear was his only near neighbor but one
afternoon he made a discovery and in SO
doing he had an adventure
Bobby, you know, has a liking for fresh
eggs. In the spring he always keeps his
eyes open for nests. He doesn't see any
reason why he shouldn't help himself
to a few eggs If he is smart enough to
find them: He says the birds can lay
more. and, anyway, they should hide
their nests where they cannot be found.
This particular afternoon he was explor-
ing hollow not far from his new home,
a hollow he had not visited before, when
he discovered in the top of q tall pine
tree nest. At least from the ground
1t looked Like o nest-a rough nest Of q

size that reminded him of one he had
once found belonging to Blacky the Crow:
To be sure, he hadn't seen anything OF
Blacky around here. nor heard him, but
he knows Blacky well enough to know
that Blacky is very quiet around his
home.
This particular nest didn't look very
promising. In fact, it looked like an old
one But he couldn't see it very well be-
cause of the branches in the way. and,
anyway, you never can tell what you may
find 1t wouldn't be much trouble to
climb up there. 1t never is much trouble
to Bobby to climb a tree. And If there
should happen to be eggs there-well
Bobby's mouth fairly watered at tho mere
thought.
when something struck him so hard that
he almost fell, and made him squeai. He
was as much frightened as he was hurt,
for he hadn't heard a sound.
What are you after? What business
have you here?" demanded a flerce-sound-
Bobby clung to the tree and turned to
see who was speaking A pair OF the
fiercest great eyes stared into his own.
Hastily Bobby began to back down the
tree.
"T-I-I-'' began Bobby.
'who-oo?" demanded the voice.
eff you please. Hooty, I didn't mean
know this was your tree" cried Bobby. -.
With a sharp hiss Hooty the Owl
swooped his terrible great claws. which
looked five times big as they really
were, stretched to seize Bobby. Just in
time Bobby lodged around tho trunk Of
! the tree.
'Im getting down as fast as can.
Hooty," he whimpered. 'If l had had
the least idea that that was your nest
never, never, never would have thought
| of visiting it, And this was true. He
never would have.
Hooty snapped his bill with horT1d
little clicking sound, Kissed again, and
we'll Bobby didn't walt to see what he
would do next. Bobby Just let 60 and
dropped Then he took to his heels, too
scared to even look over his shoulder TO
see if he was being followed.
Thus it was that Bobby Coon discovered
that he had another neighbor. Hooty the
Owl, and thus 1t was that for time ne
| lost all desire for eggs.
! Anyway, it's q very select neighbor-
hood" muttered Bobby as he scrambled
| into his home.

MusIins for Summer.

Some one at the head Of the weaving
industry decided that it was time to
revive all manner of muslins for sum-
mer use. and the shop windows are
filled with alluring fabrics that show
many Of the old-fashioned designs.
There are stripes and checks and
flowers in pink, blue. red and yellow,
These muslins will be made up with
fine embroidery as a trimming: or filet
or Irish crochet lace, both of which
have come back into fashion.
1t is said that these gowns of sof,
muslin will not follow the chemis>
robe idea. but will be made with the
barrel skirt and a draped blouse with
a sash. or there will be satin or chif.
fon colored blouse dropping in straight
lines to the hips and embroidered at its
edges.
