Jersey Still Modish

Although jersey cloth has been. put 10 all sorts of dress purposes and has there by been more or less commonized dur ing the last two or three seasons. 1t is still placed very near the head or the fabric list by the French dressmakers.
 To be sure, the weave has been varied and the surface impressed with a sug- gkestion of a patterned figure or motif, and it is offered in embroidered, striped or plaided effects that have all the line of novelty.
 All of which is to say that the girl with clever fingers and some dressmaking in- teiligence will be able to convert rer summer suit of silk or wool jersey into a one-piece frock for wear beneath the long coat of the autumn and winter.
 The skirt may be narrowed or banded With cloth or satin of contrasting col or the latter may likewise be used for the sleeves. or better yet, for a guirnpe. < seStt of patent leather will be foune of chenille or fine wool embroidery is contributed the erstwhile suit will be found quite acceptable as an extra dress With which to start the season.

Any woman Who Tires Easily Is Nervous Irritable Looks Pale
 Should Have Her Blood Examined for Iron Deficiency

s"lhere can be no healthy, beautiful, rosy checked women without iron,, says pr. Ferdinand King. New York Phy~ sician and Medical author In my re- cent talks to physicians on the grave and serious consequences Of iron defi- ciency in the blood of American women, have strongly emphasized the fact that doctors should prescribe more orr vous. run down, weak haggard- looking women patients Pallor means anaemia. The skin of the anaemic woman is pale, the flesh flabby. The muscles lack tone, the brain flags and the memory fails, and often they become weak, nervous, irritable, Respondent and melancholy When the iron goes from the blood of women, the roses go from their cheeks

Do Not Burn Straw

Burn no straw this fall.
 Every ounce of straw is always of value. and this year it will be of greater value than usual.
 It is needed for live stock, because the roughage crop is short.
 Straw may be used in the feed ration for horses. sheep ana rougher cattle with silake and 2 email amount of grain. This cheapens the ration and saves good hay and grain for other uses.
 Liberal bedding with stray. if it is plentiful. also increases the amount of manure to be applied to the soil. Loss of the fertility clements in liquid manure are lost and bedding with more costly material is made unnecessary. The stock are made more comfortable and hence more productive. The fertility value at normal prices of the fertilizer clements amounts to aoout 8 a ton for wheat straw and s4 ton for oat straw At present abnormal prices this is in- creased several times At least 75 per cent of this should be saved by proper conservation.
