Extremes Feature
of Seasons Mode
Masculine Trend Occasion
ally Gives Way to Ultra
Feminine Attire.

Although women are giving much
thought and attention to the vogue
for the mannish costume, as exempli-
fed by the boyish tailored suit the
tiny bObbed-hair cloche, heavy brogues
and manlee gloves, there is also the oc-
casion when more distinctly femi-
nine note is sought. Just as women
have made up their minds to spend a
part of the season following the mas
culine trend, so have they resolved
that there will be alternating &C.
casions when they will appear more
feminine than ever before.
Accordingly women are striving to
decide whether to carry out the popu-
lar streamline effect in its entirety
or to choose a frock in which the
clinging silhouette is confined to the
basque surrounding a fluffy, bouffant
skirt. But in neither case, says a
fashion writer in the Kansas City
Star, is there the least trace of mas
culinity TIC be found in the spring
dresses.
Milady seems determined to fit from
one extreme to the other in her at
tire. When she is not wearing the
mannish type of costume she demands
the most extravagant notes to be
found at the opposite extreme. The
only truly outstanding feature of the
mode In dresses and frocks is the
streamline effect, whether it be car
ried through to draped. clinging
skirt or found only in the basque.
For the rest, women are exercising
their own preference entirely.
Take the matter of sleeves, for ex-
ample. It matters not, apparently
whether one chooses a gown with no

of Agriculture.)
Community driers or evaporators
have proved of great value in taking
extra work out of the house during
the busy season. A small but salts
factory cooperative drier may be
built by the following directions,
which are recommended by the United
States Department of Agriculture:
The thermos or fireless cooker prin-
ciple is used In this drier; that Is, a
space Of three or four inches Is al
lowed between the walls Of the house,
to be filed with sawdust. This holds
the heat and relieves the necessity Of
a constant watch over the fire. The
furnace should be placed at the OPP
posite end from the door and stove
pipe run from furnace end to the door
end and back with sufficient elevation
to cause good draft. A drier Of this
size and type should, with good man
agement, dry from four to six bushels
a day, and should pay for itself in one
season. Wet weather has no effect on
this type of drier.
Building Plan Of House.
The house is by II feet. The up
rights In front are feet 8 inches.
The uprights in back are 6 feet 2
inches to give roof 6 inches fall for
watershed. Doors are fastened to 2
by 4-inch uprights in front. Doors
are feet inches by 6 feet inches.
The furnace is 15 by Is inches by 4
feet, covered with two sheets GA
gauge) black sheet iron inches apart
AIR space to prevent fire. The rad
iation Is secured by ordinary stove
pipe attached to furnace.
The house is heated after the plan
of a tobacco barn-a small furnace Of
rock or brick is built at one end, a
stovepipe carries the radiation to the

Cucumbers are excellent as cooked
vegetable, suggests the United States

In this form. To prepare them for

crosswise, or both, and scoop out the
seeds. They are tender and delicious

Ergophobia Scared Hin,
Until 1t Was Explained

A broad-shouldered man shuffied
into the receiving ward Of a city hos
pital In Philadelphia the other day and
demanded thorough examination for
mysterious disease that had "com-
pletely knocked him out"
He was so insistent that the resi-
dent physician committed him to a
ward.
The next day the chief resident ply
sician made the examination, while
the patient groaned and walled. With
laconic smile the doctor marked
"ergophobla" on his card and passed
on his rounds.
Just think, isn't that terriblef"
cried the patient. "Of all things,
am stricken with ergophobia. What /

authority upon the only real hermit
kingdom remaining on the face of the
earth, 1.-THE rulers are women, and
polyandry. which is practiced through
out the country, reaches It's greatest
heights, for some of them have their
harems, as 1t were, but with a reverse

who are never permitted to leave the
place."
The doctor visited Detroit recent.

country.

Tagged Wild Goose Is
Occasion for ReuiuoI

Jack Miner, Of Kingsvllle, Ont, who
has become noted for his ability TO
tame wild geese, made the experiment
of fastening metal tags to large num-
Der Of them before turning them loose
to resume their migrations. Thereby
hangs an amusing tale.
A gray goose bearing one of his
tags had been shot by some negroes
in Mississippi. The negro who ac-
CURED this particular bird, 1t appears,
was an illiterate preacher, possessed
of great powers Of speech. He insist
ed that the message came from heav-
en- and made its receipt the occasion
for revival declaring to his credu-
lous flock: This am the message
Of the Lord, and now am the judg-
ment coming" Some of the Indian
hunters who have shot the tagged
geese In the Far North have had a
strange superstition about them, In
slsting that they belonged to the evil
one, who had marked them as his own.
The result Of Miners experiments
and observations may be summarized !
thus: He has definitely proved that
birds do return to the same haunt year
after year; that kindness will over
come fear even In the wariest OF
'eathered folk; that geese travel over
he same route In migration at speed
If about sixty miles an hour.-Albert

Monitor.

Horseshoes Sold for Gaming

Hardware dealers throughout the
country are finding ready sale for
new horseshoes owing to the revival
Of the good old game of pitching
horseshoes. Since the automobile
came into such popular use fewer old
horseshoes were available for this
popular pastime, and the result has
been that the demand for shoes caused
hardware and sporting goods dealers
to stock new ones. A new magazine,
the Horseshoes World, has nothing
whatever to do with shoelng horses,
and is devoted exclusively to the
game.
