Hens Odd Nesting Place.

An Australian living in New South
Wales says that one Of his hens had
nest 40 feet up In pine. an old
nest of the rlng-tailed opossum. Ths
hen used to climb up via the branches
and come down airplane fashion. With
the exception Of one, all the chicks
reached the earth by tumbling. The
last one, No. 10, was rescued with q
prawD net affixed to pole, into which
the nest, chick and all, was poked
Prior to the final act No. 10 had be
come proficient In walking the
branches, appearing fromstime to time
several feet from the nest and re-
treating to his pine-needle home when.
ever he was approached. Not one OF
the fledgings was injured by its sud
den descent, but the thick foliage OF
the tree broke the fall.

Christmas Ieftovers
Christmas Leftovers

One knows what some of the left
overs of Christmas are: the Christmas
tree out on the ash pile awaiting the
scavenger's cart-away; the turkey,
cold, warmed up, hashed, boiled bones,
soup; the sigh, somewhat of relief, that
birdie is no more.
But the pretty tree and the table
feast are but incidents of Christmas;
the essential thing is the Divine part;
the truth brought to the mind, the
message to the heart, the reality to the
life;-that this our humanity is shared
by the Divine, the Eternal; the left
over of which is the assurance to us
that our humanity, in its essential be-
ing, is divine and eternal.
OF the one most intimately touched
by the things of Christmas, the one
most deeply affected by the happen
ings of the worlds first Christmas
day, it is recorded that she, "Mary
kept all these things, and pondered
them in her heart" How else, being
things of spiritual sort, could they,
the real leftovers of Christmas, be laid
hold of but by the mind and hearty
The physical things Of Christmas are
used up, done for in a few days; the
spiritual things are never used up, be-
ing of nature that grows and in
creases, for peace of mind and happi-
ness of heart, through time and past
earth to heaven and eternity.
It is in the nature of things physical
that they slip, sooner or later, through
our fingers and from our grasp. It is
of the nature of things spiritual, our
thoughts, desires, hopes, purposes, as
pirations, that, lifted to their proper
plane, and directed to their rightful
ends, they grow and increase; no power
on earth can destroy them, and only
the Power divine can, to their fulness,
develop them.
Can we say: 81 have kept the
things of Christmas that have been
committed to my trust?'

THE BARBERRY BUSH

'Here we go round the barberry BUSH
Three tiny maidens, with wind-tossed
hair
Sing the old rhyme to the well-worn air
so early Monday mornng!"
Chubby fingers intertwined.
Every tumble scorning,
Around and round they dizzily go
Eyes that shine and cheeks a-glow;
Bessie and Belle and Baby Snow
so early Monday morning!'
And. here we go round our barberry
bush,"
thought. as I heard the gay little song
Mothers and wives, our whole lives long
Our days as well as mornings.
Busy fingers never still,
Not q duty scorning;
Round and round with tireless feet.
Conquering every task we meet.
Home and children keeping SWEET
Morning after morning!
This is the way we wash our clothes!"
They rub and wiring and dampen and
press
In poaomime. apron or dollie's dress
80 early Monday mornng!"
On they go in the queer old play
Each days work performing;
They knead the bread, and stir the cake,
With many pat and knowing shake
Dearest of dear little cooks they make,
This lovely summer morning!
This is the way we go to church,
Soft-dimpled arms creep out of sight,
Long apron sleeves are buttoned tight
so early Sunday morning!
They don their hats all trimmed with
leaves.
And dandelions adorning-
Three small mimics of earthly toll!
Pure little hearts without a soil!
Nothing they know of the worlds turmoil
So early in life's morning!
And shall we not leave our ''barberry
bush!"
Each day has brought US its burden of
work;
Duties and cares which we could not
shrk-
Morning after morningl
Cometh now the Sabbath's rest!
Weary brains give warning
That woman needs one day in seven
To free her heart of earthly leaven,
To fit herself for God and heaven,
One holy Sabbath morning!

ONE WEAK SPOT
Many Glenwood Springs People Have
a Weak Part and Too Often
It's the Back

Many people have a weak spot.
Too often it's bad back.
Twinges follow every sudden twist
Dull aching keeps up, day and night
Backache is often from weak kid
neys.
In such case kidney medicine is
needed.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak
kidneys,
For backache and urinary ills.
Glenwood Springs people recommend
the remedy. Ask your neighbor
Philip Fitzpatrick, TIT Blake ave-
nue., Glenwood Springs, says: "Sev-
eral years ago my back was so painful
I could hardly bend enough to pull on
my shoes. AT times ! could hardly
pass the kidney secretions. l used
several different remedies in an effort
to get relief. I was advised by n
friend to use Doan s Kidney Pills and
the relief they brought was beneficial.
I use Doan's when an occasion arises
and every time they give prompt
relief"
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don It
simply ask for kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that

THE CREPE GOWN UNADORNED
Frock Made of Canton Material In
Popular Caramel Shade, With
out Trimming.

Just how attractive gown made
entirely of one fabric and practically
without trimming can be is shown by
a frock made of canton crepe in the
popular caramel shade. The only
touch of contrasting color is in the
thread used to hemstitch the tucks
and form the little openwork border
around the neck. Brown silk thread
is used for this purpose.
Both back and front sections of the
frock have rather wide tucks running
practically their entire width. Four
panels, two at the side front and two
at the side back, are laid in inch-wide
flat plaits; the sections between these
panels are plain. The sleeves are
about three-quarter length and slight
ly flared. These also are finished with
tucks. A sash belt, to be tied at the
side or back, holds the frock in at the
waistline.
With this frock Is worn a small hat
of brown braid or taffeta trimmed
with foliage or flowers carrying out
the color scheme of the frock.
The crepe weave silks are used to
make dresses that are smart and prac-
tical and so light in weight that they
may be worn with comfort throughout
the summer, as the majority of them
are entirely unlined. The leaning to
straight lines and to simplicity in style
design is very friendly to the develop
ment Of unlined frOcks, as few are SO
closely fitted to the figure as to re-
quire lining unless 1t is actually pre-.
ferred, and certainly the unlined
dresses are much easier to get into
than the ones that are lined-anotheI
advantage in this age of hurry and
furry.

SHIP SOUGHT OCEAN GRAVE7
Condemned Steamer Did Not Plan
Escape From lenominy.

Stories are not wanting of locomo-
tives with no one aboard suddenly 60
ing into action and dashing off down
the line, to the CONSERVATION of train
men and dispatchers and danger of
collision with other trains. Machinery
also will start or stop at times with
out human Intervention. Derelicts at
sea frequently accomplish voyages Of
thousands of miles before they are re-
ported, sought out and sunk. 1t is
impossible to convince the old salt
water seaman that ships do not pos
sess certain mysterious powers Of ac-
ton over which captain and crew
have no control, Popular Mechanics
Magazine states.
A curious instance of this kind hap
pened recently in the Boston harbor.
The shipping-board steamer, the Wax
anna, had been condemned to end her
days by being taken to lonesome
beach far from the busy lanes of ves-
sells, and burned. She had been for
some time securely anchored, while the
nature of her fate was being consid-
cred. Finally it was decided. Then,
at night, she slipped her moorings. and
without captain, pilot or crew on
board, silently threaded her way
through the hnrbor. out around tortu-
Gus channels and around dangerous
rocks and reefs, to navigate which,
even in daytime, requires experienced
pilots to pass in safety, and out toward
the great Oceun
Early next morning the escape was
discovered, and government tugs
chased out after the truant. Finally
she was overtaken and towed back to
await the ordeal by fire, which oc-
Cured a few days later. Old salts
shake their heads and declare: "She
knew what was coming" and one
might as well try to convince them the
ocean is fresh water as to reason them
out of their belief.

FRILLS ARE USED
Decoration Featured on Waists
for Tailored Use.
The Jabot Effect or RuffIes In
Straight Rows Afford an
Interesting Arrangement.

Well-dressed women in search OF
smart blouses to wear with navy blue
suits would undoubtedly apply the
term of real" to one group of offer
ings noted recently. for they are gen
uinely attractive. One of the most
original designs was frilled over
blouse. Frills are almost exclusively
offered on waists for tailored use, and
most agreeable surprise is waiting
for those who have never seen them
in combination with finished over
blouse pattern.
One manufacturer has included this
frilled overblouse in several highly
specialized models. White, flesh and
bisque are the color mediums and a
particularly rich effect is found In
those of blsque tone because of the
shaded lace that Is dyed to match it
so perfectly.
In developing these frilled styles,
one is offered in typical jabot effect
edged with lace in scalloped pattern.
Another shows two straight rows Of
ruffles on either side of a double set
ting Of handmade Irish lace. This
waist attracts immediate attention
because the pattern of the lace in
cludes several large rosette stitches
that reach the proportion Of large
buttons and which form ornaments
of rich appearance. The peplum parts
of these georgette blouses have a
finished touch in the employment Of
horizontal tucks that are found on
many.
Medallions of antique f1let lace in
its novel design are used as trim
ming on several styles. These medal
lions are set in irregular fashion to
give a pointed effect to the sleeves
and are used in foursomes to form a
novel collar. Tucked squares cover
the surface of one overblouse. and
handmade lace medallions are CEN
tered in these to good advantage.
To point out the fine detail in exc
cutting these blouses. one waist offers
bosom front formed of embroid-
cred net combined with Irish lace. 1t
is the season for georgettes, and for
that reason they have been empha-
sized. Crepe de chimes of n fine quail
ity are also presented in the same
models for those who prefer this ma
terial.

Duck Has Feet Like Chicken.

A Prince Edward island farmer has
a duck about two months old that has
chickens feet. 1t seems to be getting
along splendidly. The fact was first
discovered when the duckling was
about week old and many people
have seen it since. All agree after
examining 1t carefully that to all ap'
pearances the feet are those of n
chicken without sign of the usual
cobweb foot found on ducks.

lawyer who stepped forward to meet
her was not the one she had engaged.
The attorney, too, did not recognize
her as Mrs. Eva Gordon. Great be-
