 This turban is broad and the drap- ed, gray. metallized satin is brought over the sides in a Parisian rather than a Persian manner.
 The broad-brimmed hat of graceful lines is of canary-yel1ow crepe yelled with metallic thread lace. A large cockade with two rows of skunk adorns the front while skunk edges tho brim.

GIVE ILLUSION OF WINDOW
Chicago Mans Ingenious Idea for I'm
proving Appearance Of Room With
out Open-Air Outlets.

A neat little illusion that gives to
an interior room without window
the appearance of having a couple of
windows has grown out of the hous-
ing shortage. In one of the remodeled
houses the owner has had window
frame with glass in it set in the wall.
There is a space of piece of studding
and then suggestion of a blue sky.
Curtains are hung over the window
and a pair of inside shutters partly
closed add to the setting. A plant In
a small pot rests on the window sill
outside the window. The whole is
lighted by electricity, the lamp being
out of sight. outside and above the
window.
The indirect lighting, the window,
the flower and the curtain combine to
destroy the feeling that you are In
q room with no outlet to the open air
and adds a cheerfulness that could be
obtained in no other way.-Chicago

FROM THE LAND OF WONDERS
Shasta County, California, Comes
Proudly to the Front With
Eggs That Dance.

Shasta county, California, is the
land of wonders The latest is the
dancing egg. relates London Tit-Bits.
1t is laid by an as yet undetermined
insect on the leaves of oak trees.
Masses of these eggs cling to the
under side of the leaf, and as they
advance toward maturity they drop
to the ground and dance about.
By holding an oak twig containing
any number of eggs to ones ear q
cracking sound may be heard, like the
splitting of electric sparks. The shell
contains a tiny grub, working for re-
lease.
In many towns collections Of the
eggs are on exhibition. When laid
on a table these eggs bound about
and spring into the air, sometimes to
a height of 16 inches. They are par
ticularly active in the early morning.
This latest insect novelty takes rank

MIGHT BE TERMED DEAOL OCk
Victory Alike for Landlord and
Obstinate Tenant.

Mrs. Mary Mandalay, a New York
widow, admits that it was a hollow
and very drafty victory which she won
when she secured a decision in her
favor against the dispossess proceed
ings of her landlord who wanted to
put her out when he began a recon-
struction of the tenement in which
she lives.
Mrs. Mandalay and her family of
five remained when all the other ten
ants had given in and moved else
where. Then the wreckers came and
tore out the back wall of the house
so that Mrs Mandalay was forced to
stretch sheet across the space where
the wall had been. Then the wreck
ers came again and tore out a part
of the foundation of the house so
that the building rocked precariously
every time an elevated train passed.
And when the wreckers had done
their worst, a tenement inspector
came along, looked at the building
and said that work would have to
stop right where it was until an in
vestigation could be made.

An RIrpIane Brake.

The newest idea for airplane wheels
is to mount upon the periphery of each
wheel a number of little wheels.
This arrangement, says the Popular
Science Monthly, helps to retard the
forward motion of the flying machine
on making landing. The little
wheels, brought excessively into po-
sition by the force of impact, tend
to check the plane and bring it to
a quick and smooth stop.

True Story of Famous Incident at

Has Made immortal.

The scaffolding has now been taken

Verdun which President Millerand has

is misnomer. The true story is
this
Fifty-seven survivors of two Breton
battalions were holding the line there
not in a trench, but in series Of
shellholes, nearly regularly spaced and
aligned. The men were so packed that
when any were wounded they were I'M
able to fall down, while for security
they held their rifles, with fixed bay
onets in the air.

ground.-Continental Edition of the

TIME TO PURCHASE FEEDERS
No Hard and Fast Rule for Farmer to
Go By-cattIe Are Higher in
Spring Than in Fall.

Sim Bakers right leg was in tenn
porary retirement under a layer OF
arnica-soaked bandages. He regarded
the injured member with a CLINT OF
rueful humor and spake thus to q
neighbor who had dropped in for o
chat with the cheerful invalid.
Bert, tell me somethin'. How can
a Teller tell when a mean white mule
named Anarchy is goin' to kick? 1
mean, how can he tell in time to do
him any good?"
Human knowledge goes no further
than to say that white mule is al
ways goin' to kick Is that the an
swer? Then let me ask you a Ques-
ton: How do you know whether to
buy your feeder steers in the fall
or in the spring? Do you make any
thing by feeding them in the winter,
and will you make more if you let the
other Teller feed 'em through? They
cost more in the spring than in the
fall. Is there any way to be certain?"
Sim admitted that the thing was
past his comprehension and confessed
that he sometimes did the thing one
way and sometimes the other, but that
he never knew just how he was COM
ing out.
In reality, as to the time to buy
stockers or feeders, there is no hard
and fast rule. The usual time is in |
the fall when they must leave the !
grazing areas and go where feeds |
have been harvested or stored for cat
tie feeding. However with falling |
market, which no one can foretell with
any degree of certainty, the cattle
may not be worth enough more in the
spring to pay for the winter feeding
Yet they have been kept largely on
feed for which there is no other mar
ket.
Consequently, what Sim and his
neighbor should know is how much it
costs to keep stOckers through the
winter on various rations, how they
lose or gain weight, and how they
gain through the summer as a result
Of the way they have been wintered.

They're birds, and mollymauks is the

which are not so large as the great
