Ccntrix-ancc Which Will Prevent FoHltry from Wasting Feed. 1 A serviceable feeding rack, shown In the Illustration, Is designed to prevent waste of feed given to poul try and to keep water from being soiled, says Orange Judd Farmer. I It consists of a crate and a base tray ' of any desired size. The tray has Itwo cross pieces beneath to prevent warping and a rim of two-Inch stuff. The crate Is made of lath, say one ' foot long, nailed to a top consisting A STRIPED ZEPHYR. SIMPLY ( MADE. t bands. A square neck is filled In j with af soft guimpe of white batiste t and the elbow sleeves have cuffs of j wider lace. The belt' Is made of silk to match the hem on the skirt, being fastened at the side with a soft bow. The ends are heavily fringed. Little dresses like this are quite pretty without linings, but when mounted over thin china silk slips in delicate colors their beauty is great ly enhanced. For youthful gowns the finer stripes are used, tucks and plaits being omitted from the decora tive schemes approved by the lead ing dressmakers. FEEDING RACK IN POSITION, of a board one inch thick and a base frame of wood one and one-half by one-half or three-fourths. The cov i er may or may not have the hinged trap door, as shown In the drawing. Water or feed, or both, may be set 1 under the crate without fear of loss or pollution. Society Woman at Table. Society women break down, all too often, because they eat too little at one time and too much at an other. Strangely enough, the very woman whose time theoretically is at her disposal, because of her wealth, cannot always control the order of her repasts. The French breakkfast idea is largely respons ible for loss of health on the part of many a woman of fashion. In stead of taking a good American breakfast and so fortifying herself with a roll and coffee or chocolate, with perhaps a little fruit on the side. Another trouble with the so ciety woman of to-day is that she has forgotten the art of a genera tion ago, which was to shift social problems to the shoulders of her secretary. She worries as much over the affairs of the set as does her husband over the turn of the market. It should be her study to leave her social bothers outside her boudoir. She should not take so ciety too seriously. And she should eat enough at all times, Instead of having her meals alternate between feast and famine. With the busi ness woman It is different. She, too. should eat sensibly, but not too much. She should drink plenty of milk, take tea, coffee and good chocolate In moderation, and always have plenty of fresh fruit A light luncheon Is better than a heavy one for her, for It must be remembered that the working woman has to go straight back to her work after her meal and has no time'for exercise, wherefore a heavy repast is a se vere tax upon her digestion. SOME PUDDING RECIPES. Puddings have become so varied In style, taste and composition until now it Is difficult to tell Just what the name pudding signifies unless the kind of pudding Is specified. Here are a few of the many popular pud ding recipes, o and new. Light Pudding Scald four cup fuls of milk. Add two-thirds of a cupful of sugar and six level table spoonsful of corn starch, made smooth In a little cold milk. Cook ten minutes, and add the yolks of three eggs beaten well. Butter a pudding dish, aredge with sugar, turn In the pudding and cover with a meringue made of the whites ol four eggs beaten stiff and one-half of a cupful o.' powdered sugar. Set in the oven to brown. Cool before serving. A Hint for Flower-Lovers. To preserve a boquet of flowers sprinkle It lightly with fresh water, then place It In a vase containing soap-suds. The chemical properties nourish the life and keep the flowers bright. Take the bouquet out of the suds every morning, and place the stems in fresh water for a few min utes; then after sprinkling the flow ers again with clear water, replace the boquet In the suds. The flowers will keep as fresh as when first gath ered, espedaly when the suds are changed every third day. By this method I have kept flowers fresh, fragrant and beautiful for over a week. Try It and you will be delighted. Kactac Between Meals. ThU, (or children. If a sure way of aeaairfag dyspepsia. Wholesome meals, at regular hoars, obviate the nsed at anything at otaar times. Why Green Bone Makes Eggs. It is not enough that a given food contain a certain per cent, of lime or a certain per cent, of phosphates; It must also be decided whether these different chemicals can be as similated by the hen. Dalton, who Is Indisputable authority, says: "It 1b well known that inorganic sub stances, although they afford tho necessary material for vegetation, are not sufficient for the nourishment of animals, which depend for their support upon elements already com bined In the organic form, by the action of the sun's rays and plant life." That market bones produce won derful results when fed to poultry Is indisputable. The lean meat and gristle form the white of the egg and about 16 per cent, of the yolk. The marrow and other fat on the bones supply the remainder of the yolk. The lime phosphates in the bone yield all the necessary lime, salts for the shell and the necessary phos phates for the interior of the egg. When it Is considered that all the above substances are found in green bone in a specially digestible condi tion, far more so than any food sup plied by dry meat, corn or wheat, is it surprising that such glowing re ports are so often beard about this new food for poultry? With modern machinery obtain able on easy terms, poultry men should feed more liberally of green cut bone, especially to pullets and cockerels during the cold winter months when other lime food Is hard tr find. Variety Essential for Poultry. There Is nc difficulty in providing a variety for a small flock, as tne table scraps will assist, but for fifty or a hundred fowls, resort to foods that are easily obtained is required. Cut clover, meat, milk, linseed o:l cake and cabbage will all serve to vary the diet. It is when fowls are fed on grain during the whole time that they refuse to lay. But even the grain may be varied it corn is withheld and oats, wheat and buck wheat are used in rotation. Fill a trough full ot corn and place It where the fowls can eat all they de sire. They will soon beeJ . to re fuse It, as they require something which the "corn does not contain, and they will not produce many eggs until they are gratified. Variety d food Is -;-t only essential to egg production, but assists in keeping the flock In a healthy condition. Poorly Cared for Flocks, it Is useless to look for profits in the flock if the fowls are not cared for as they should be. No matter bow good the breed, it must be fed rightly or it will give little In the way of profitable returns. The fowls must be housed In winter in such a way that they will not be wet and consequently cold. If the wet gets in through the roof the fowls will quickly become the prey of different kinds of diseases. Some men make the mistake of buying high-priced fowls and giving them low-priced conditions, with the re sult that they get low-priced returns. Charcoal Beneficial. Charcoal Is a great aid to diges tion and should always be placed within the reach of hens. An excel lent form In which to give It is In the shape of charred corn. Throw a dry cob of corn Into the fire un til the grains are well blackened, then throw It, without shelling, in .-u yard for the fowls, and watch how they will pick at it Mens Beat Cows. Take It one year with another, hens will bring la more clean moaey, according to the amount ot the investment, than, the cows will. You don't believe taatt That is be cause yoa bare sot kept an account of either the baas or the eews. ' Be fair about It and test the Batter for yourself. S.

"You must be goln out to see the girl." observed the friendly tobac conist to the young man who had Just purchased 'a cigar. "What's that?" asked the young man, sharply, pausing in the act of lighting bis Havana second. His manner was disconcerting, but the tobaconist repeated his sur mise. "You're Used up so." he add ed. "Flower in your buttonhole, moustache curled. You're ' looking ail right." "1 didn't ask you how I looked," said the young man, morosely. "I came in here to buy me a smoke." "That's all right." said the to bacconist, soothingly. "1 didn't mean to hurt your feelln's. There ain't any harm in 'a feller going to see a girl as I know of. I've done it myself." "I may be going to sit np with a sick grandmother, for all you know," said the young man in nowise pla cated. "If I get my moustache curled 1 guess it's my business." "Sure. That's all right." "I don't know whether It Is or not. I didn't get fresh about your bald spot when I came In here." "You don't need to get mad about It," said the tobacconist. "If I want to wear a flower I guess It's my privilege," continued the young man. "I may wear a flower every day In the week and two on Sunday. You don't know. You never saw me before ,as I know, of. You've probably got me mixed up with somebody you went to school with, tho way you talk." "IT take It all back," said the tobacconist. "You'd better not bring It out the next time," said the young man with a threatening shake of the head. "You can't make a monkey of me, I want to tell you. You're a Josher, you are. You must think: that line o' talk is a trade getter. If I've got a girl I don't remem ber Introducing her to you. How would it be if you tended to your cigar business? Say if you've got .any friends you must josh them something fierce." "Now .see here " began tho tobaconist. "If you've got anything to say about my necktie you might as well get It off your mind," said the young man. "Maybe you'd like to know about the girl to.o." VNo, sir, I don't." said the tobac conist, wrathfully. "I don't care a hang about her or about you. You can go and see her or you can stay away from her, Just as you dern please, just so long as you get out of this store. A man may have a grouch, but he can't rub it Into me. more than about so much." The young man turned to the cigar lighter and lit his cigar with ostentatious deliberation. At tho door he turned. "Talking about that bald spot of yours," he said ,"it looks as If you'd been having trouble with your wife." The tobccori st glared at the spot where tho young man had stood for nearly a minute. Then his features relaxed. "Maybe I ain't the first told him that this afternoon," he said. Woman's High Position.
