Operation.
Brownsville, Ind. —“I can say that
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
has done me more good than anything
else. One doctor said I must be opera
ted upon for a serious female trouble
and that nothing could help me but an
operation.
“I had hemorrhages and at times
eould not get any medicine to stop them.
I got in such a weak condition that I would
have died if I had not got relief soon.
“Several women who had taken your
Compound, told me to try it and I did
and found it to be the right medicine to
build up the system and overcome
female troubles.
“ I am now in great deal better health
than I ever expected to be, so I think I
ought to thank you for it.”—Mrs. O. M.
Cline, S. Main St., Brownsville, Ind.

Senator Bankhead, discussing an elo
quent speech that had been rather
poorly reported, said:
"The report spoiled the speech. It
was like old Hiram Earwig's account
of Daniel Webster's last word. Web

tered the profound and significant sen
tence, "I still live.” Well, Hiram
Earwig of Skeeter Beach said to- a
visitor from the city:
“ ‘Yawp, life’s onsartin. Wot wuz it

Dan Webster. He got off a good thing
just afore he died. He riz up in bed

Fortissimo.
When a certain Baltimore matron
/returned home one afternoon not so
long ago the first sign her eyes be
-1 held was a badly damaged youngster
of hers. Little Bobby’s forehead bore
a bump almost the size of a doorknob.
"Heavens,” exclaimed the mother.
"What has happened to Bobby?”
"Nuthin’ much, mum,” explained the
new nurse. “You told me, mum, he
might play on the planner if he wanted
to. Well, mum, wanst while he was
sliding on the top, he slid a bit too
far, mum; an’ that accounts for the
bump ye see, mum.”

NEW models from Paris in mourn
ing millinery show a degree of
style and smartness which is
hard to achieve in any apparel
having less individuality than this
special class. A turban and a hat,
both designed for a widow, are pic
tured here. They are wonderful ex
amples of this class of millinery.
The turban, which might more con
sistently be called a turban-bonnet, is
as simple in outline as possible and
covered with English crape drawn
smoothly over the crown. Its distinc
tion lies in the graceful draping and
great length of the beautiful veil. A
width of crape, two yards long, is fin
ished with a hem set on at the bot
tom a quarter of a yard deep. The
other end is wound about the turban
frame, exactly in the fashion of an
Oriental turban. The crape veil thus
provides drapery for the turban, a
scarf about the shoulders and the reg
ulation widow’s veil, all in one. A
ruche is not worn with this crape tur- 1

bonnets when there is a preference
for it.
The beautiful sailor shape with
square crown and rolling brim, is cov
ered with a dull-finished black silk.
A band of crape as wide as the crown
is laid smoothly about it. A broad
crape bow is poised across the front
with a crape-covered buckle at its
center.
The long crape veil laid in a double
box plait and sewed to the under
brim, close to the head, is a purely
decorative feature, although it may be
worn about the neck in a scarf-like
manner. This fashion of wearing the
drape like a throw about the neck
may bring about a lengthening of the
veil. It is a very graceful fashion.
Since crape is manufactured so that
it is waterproof, it is as useful, in
deed, more useful, than fabrics not so
protected, and may be used more free
ly than ever before.

SEPARATE SKIRT A NECESSITY
Many Materials From Which to
Choose, but Garment Must Be in
One’s Wardrobe.
If you would profit by the example
of French tailors, you will order sep
arate skirts of one of the following
materials:
First, a double-faced cloth that has
leaped Into important place is being
used. It practically trims itself, and
will be very popular for this econom
ical reason.
Then there are cheviots and serges
for lightweight models, and all colors
are in vogue, the neutral shades and
dark blue leading.
Heavy fancy suitings are very popu
lar. The English tweeds and mixed
suitings are having a tremendous
favoritism shown them by the leading
houses.
Tailored skirts are not so straight in
outline, many showing slashed effects
at the side, and all are made walking
length.
Some have a slightly raised waist
band, so that no belt is needed, while
others show a normal line, -with a
stitched band attached to the skirt.
On others, a back panel is attached
with a modified front edge that ex
tends toward the front, thus forming a
belt or girdle.
MATCH THE HAIR AND EYES
' Appropriate Touch of Color In the Toi
lette Adds Immensely to the
Appearance.
To be becomingly dressed is the de
' sire of every Woman worthy of the
। name, and here I would say one is
greatly helped towards this end if in
one’s toilette a touch of color to
i match the hair and eyes is introduced.
It accentuates one’s “points.” For ex
• ample, an ideal dance frock for a lark
• haired girl would be a pale green shot
with mauve crepe de sole. This em
phasizes the black hair and brown
1 eyes of the wearer.
To the woman with brown hair
which has golden lights cne com
mends the new color, which is of
greenish gold. And as hair of this
color is frequently accompanied by
gray eyes, which almost invar ably
have a yellowish halo around the iris,
this is the color for her. —Chicago in

Water Softener.
One of the best water-softeners for
’ winter use is that of a mixture of al

FAVOR INDIAN RUNNER DUCKS
Few Breeds Better Suited to Farm
Raising—lmported From West In
dies Fifteen Years Ago.
Much has been said through the dif
ferent farm and poultry journals in
favor of the Indian Runner duck, but
I believe there are few who realize the
possibilities and advantages of rear
ing ducks of this breed.
As I have been raising this breed of
ducks for a few years, I can testify
that they deserve all the praise given
them.
They are not an entirely new vari
ety, having been imported some 15
years ago from the West Indies, thus
it receives the name of “Indian” with
the “Runner” added to denote its chief
peculiarity, its rapid movement over
the ground.
They are great foragers and pick
up innumerable bugs and insects. This
alone should give them an important
place on every farm.
Owing to their extreme hardiness, it
is quite an easy task to raise a 1
large flock of Indian Runners, with
very little trouble.
They are never bothered with lice,
there are no roosts to keep clean, and
no expensive houses are needed; just
a low-roofed shed to protect them from
the severe winds and snows in winter,
says a writer in the Farm Progress.
The houses should have az dry floor
covering of straw or some kind of lit
ter, as they must have a dry place on
which to sleep.
While they are not a land fowl, it is
not at all necessary to have running
water for them to swim in, all that is
needed is plenty of clean water to
drink, placed in a vessel deep enough
Indian Runner Drake and Duck.
for them to cover their heads, as the
nostrils are liable to become clogged
with mud or feed.
The young ducklings grow and ma
ture so quickly it is indeed very inter
esting and fascinating to raise them.
We have had young ducklings that
weighed three and one-fourth pounds
when 60 days old; when matured they
will weigh from four and one-half to
five pounds.
Being a quick maturing fowl makes
their meat exceedingly tender, and
juicy, of fine flavor, equal or su
perior to spring chicken.
Their eggs are large, about one-third
larger than the average hen egg, and
perfectly white. And, contrary to the
general idea of duck eggs, they are of
mild, delicate flavor, making them
very desirable for the table or cake
baking, puddings, etc. The eggs under
ordinary conditions are very fertile and
will hatch exceedingly well in incuba
tors.
pinar Noreq
Renew the nests often with clean
material.
Field peas make most excellent feed '
for laying hens.
Feeding clover is a preventive of '
soft shelled eggs.
It takes knowledge, experience and ,
skill to produce a good egg.
The more comfortable and happy '
the hen, the more eggs she will lay.
A hen should have all the green
feed she will eat every day of her
life.
A turkey will consume more grit
than any of the poultry kept on the
farm.
New blood is a necessity, if one in
tends to build up the egg-laying and
market qualities of his flock.
After mated, give your birds the
best sanitary conditions possible and
keep the houses free from lice and
mites.
Great care should be exercised that
breeding stock, young chicks, or
eggs for hatching, be secured from
flocks which are free from white
diarrhea infection.
Air-slaked lime sifted or scattered :
over the dropping boards will assist ■
the cleaning process materially, and i
also take up much of the dampness
from the droppings.
Save the small potatoes and other
vegetables that would otherwise go
to waste and feed them to the fowls.
They will help in keeping up the egg
yield in cold weather.
A scratching hen and opportunity to
get out in the sun in moderate weath
er are-important to the health and
thrift of hens in winter, and conse
quently to winter egg production. z
Room, exercise, food, warmth, kind
ness, pure water and a management
that will conduce to the comfort of the
hens generally, will keep the egg bas
ket full In winter and make winter
poultry growing profitable.
