NOVELTIES IN
BUTTON TRIMMINGS.
How to Add Effective Touches
to the Smart Costume.
Unusual methods of arranging and
attaching small trimming buttons are
among the season's novelties.
Take the tiny pearl glove button, for
Instance. This is the button seen by
the hundred on lingerie blouses as well
as on all manner of adjustable acces
sories. These commonplace little but
tons, with four eyelets, may be made
decidedly ornamental.
If the blouse has a touch of any col
or which should be accentuated sew
the little pearl buttons on with heavy
wash silk of the desired shade, having
the stitches go into one eyelet as a
common center. This gives a pretty
triangular effect to the center of the
button Instead of the usual crossing of
the stitches. By Joining all four eye
lets with stitches the effect of a hoi
low square Is gained, and if the button
Is not intended for real service a pret
ty novelty Is to carry the stitch entire
ly over the button and thrust the nee
dle Into the fabric Just outside the cir
cumference of the button.
By using heavy silk an effective bit
of color may bo Introduced in any one
of these ways. It wash embroidery silk
is used the lingerie blouse so trimmed
may bo laundered as satisfactorily as
though no color appeared in its trim
ming. Instead of buying expensive -white
crochet buttons for a blouse of wash
able white net, experiment with the
crocheted rings of various sizes that
come for use in the making of renais
sance lace. These range In price from
15 to 30 cents a hundred, according to
eize, and may be used wherever trim
ming buttoni are desired.
The small rings hare a center open
ing so small that a few French knots
of either white or colored mercerized
floss entirely All the space and take
away the otherwise flat look. Buttons
so made, when used with a mock but
tonhole outlined in silk or linen floss
matching the center, form an attractive
trimming for lingerie blouses.
For silk blouses, where jewel buttons
are In high favor, try buying the null
heads to be found at the notion coun
ter of any of the large shops. These
are usually displayed In a glass cov
ered case divided Into many sections,
eo that the purchaser may see at a
glance Just what is to be had. All
the fashionable colors are to be found
ia these mock jewels, and, whether one
tovcts coral, turquoise, jade or ame
thyst trimmings, tiny ornamental but
tons to match are easily secured in
this way.
The outlined buttonhole to accompa
ny tbeso small buttons should bo work
ed In silk that is not too heavy, as the
charm of such trimming lies in its
daintiness. Between frills of laca a
band of satin Bet with a row of tbeso
tiny buttons and outlined buttonholes
hows to excellent advantage.
A DOUBLE
MISTAKE
By ARTHUR W. BREWSTER
Happy the man in whose dally avo
cation there Is no risk. When I was a
young man I went to work for a whole-
oale drug Arm. One day a retailor
wrote from a neighboring town that
our concern had sold him a drug that
made every ono sick who took any of
it It turned out that I had put up the
package sold.
I never entirely got over the narrow
escape I had had in this case. I re
ceived only the usual reprimand from
my employers, for no one can perfectly
rely on accuracy always. Later I set
up for myself aa a retailer of drugs.
Though our system was perfect, we
had some narrow escapes from com
mitting unintentional murder. When
any of my clerk made a mistake I
impressed upon him the Importance
of being careful, but I could not in
my heart blamo them.
There arc occasions where a person
who Is perfectly methodical, adheres to
a system, exercises every care and yet
will do something that he can never
afterward understand why he did it.
Then there are occasions when it Is
lmpoeslblo to fix the mind on one's
work. One day not lone after I had
Bet up for myself a young lady came
Into the store and asked for some
harmless medicine. At the samo time
a man asked for a poison with which
to kill bugs. The young lady happened
to be one who impressed me. I couldn't
keep my eyes off hor. Before the two
different packages were ready other
persons came in, and I did ono of those
things I should not have done. In
stead of paying no attention to new
comers till after serving those present
I undertook to nerve all of them. What
was the result? When the young lady
who had called foe a simple remedy
and the man who wished a bug poison
had gone a horrible suspicion came
Into my head that I had given the poi
son to the young girl. I could not warn
her, for I didn't know who she was.
Why had I broken my rule about
serving a number of persons at once?
I couldn't answer the question except
for the reason that I had been very
much struck with the young lady. In
deed, I had looked at her so admiringly
that I had noticed a faint flush come
Into her cheek. But the fearful conse
quencefi of her or any one else taking
the dose of the bug poison for the medi
cine she had called for would surely
rosult fatally.
A crisis hung over my head which,
till It had passed, would keep me In a
frightful suspense. As soon as the
calamity occurred, If I had made the
error I feared I had made, the medi
cine I had sold 'would be examined,
my name would be on the package and
I would soon hoar of the trouble. The
best that could bo said for my comfort
was that I would not likely be tried
for murder, because I had no motive
for poisoning any one. But I would
carry to my grave the knowledge that
I had through carelessness caused the
death of the person to whom I had
sold It, for I remembered she asked
me, "How often shall I take itf
Furthermore, my business would be
ruined and I would not have the heart
to go elsewhere and make another
start. I made two resolutions in case
the trouble fell upon me first, I would
never again start in the drug business;
second, I would commit suicide.
Every morning and every evening I
took up a newspaper with fear and
trembling. When a week had passed
I felt that the danger was somewhat
lessened. But had the young lady died
from the effect of poison would those
about her surely attribute her death
to that cause? This gave me a feeling
similar to that of one who may expect
at any moment to drop down from
heart disease, apoplexy or some other
fatal disease.
I am ono of those persons whose ac
tive, imaginative minds may Influence
their bodies. I became morbid, then
ill, simply from suspense. I took a
partner into my business and absent
ed myself from it most of tho time. A
physician told me that I was going into
a decline. But I knew well enough
that If I could be assured that I had
not killed any ono I would be well
onough. Finally it occurred to mo that
if tho young lady had not suffered the
consequences of my possible error slit
would likely have visited my store
again.
One day I was wandering aimlessly
through an unfrequented street tor
tured by my troubles when, turning a
corner, I came face to face with the
girl whose fate was driving me into
melancholia. There she was, tripping
along an healthy, as rosy, as frsh as
life. Beside myself with Joy, I made
one bound, caught hor in my arms and
covered her fare with kisses.
When I realised what I had done I
was stricken with a fresh terror lest
she have me arrested for assault In
stead, when I released her she smiled
at me through her blushes and said,
"I know how you folt toward mo the
day I went Into your etore for a pre
scription." "You knew that IM
"Of course. You didn't say it, but
you looked it"
"And why have you never come
again T"
"Do you suppoaa Td do that? Ni
I. It was for you to seek me, not mo
you."
We haT been married a long while,
but to this day sht doecnt know Why
I ww so joyful at meetdag her tgaia
I wouldn't da? UH her.
TIMELY HINTS
FOB FARMERS
Number of Hens to a Pen.
The Maine experiment station re
cently finished a test to ascertain the
number of hens most profitable to
keep in pens. All the pens were 10x1(1
feet, giving 1(30 square feet. The hens
were Brahmas and Plymouth Bocks,
and these tests continued six months.
The hens were fifteen, twenty,
twenty-live and thirty to a pen. Tho
conditions and hens were ns much
alike as possible to make tho test a
conclusive one.
The pen with fifteen hens made a
profit of 80 cents per hen, and the
eggs laid numbered 970.
The pen with twenty hens made a
showing of 1,203 eggs for the pen
and a profit of 71 cents per ben.
The pen with twenty-five hens made
a laying record of 1,328 eggs nnd a
profit of 3f) cents per hen.
The pen with thirty hens had an egg
production of 1.200 and a profit of 30
cents for each hen.
The experiment shows distinctly
that hens can be so crowded as to re
duce the profit of an egg farm. The
difference of twenty-five eggs per
hen for six months Is great. On the
basis of fifteen to tho pen the profits
of the total ninety hens were 572; on
a basis of thirty to the pen the profits
were $30. In each case the actual cost
of feed was deducted.
Winter Farm Suggestions.
Build the feed racks where the stock
can eat In the shelter.
The frosted bit should be put In your
own mouth first to see if It hurts.
Your sheds need ventilators, but
knot boles and cracks should be calked.
Do something with the big, roomy
6able space in your barns. Seal it up
or fill It with straw.
Don't leave your straw roofed shed
covered with snow to drip down on
the young calves and pigs.
Ordinary well water Is about 80 de
grees above freezing when taken out
of the well. Let tho stock drink while
it is being pumped.
Reboard tho water trough on the out
side, leaving nn air space, and put a
cover over the trough. This prevents
tho water from freezing 'so readily.
Farm Journal.
Formation of the Horse's Head.
Many horsemen consider that the
head offers some sort of index to a
horse's constitution. Thus a lean head,
nice and wide in the cheek nnd with
nmple width between the branches of
the lower Jaw, Is commonly hold to be
an indication of constitution, while n
fleshy, coarse head is deemed to de
note the opposite. The former as
sumption is, however, very often wide
of the mark, but the latter Is certainly
in many cases correct
BEDDING FOR THE
FARROWING SOW.
Straw Should Be Sparingly Sup
plied and Gut Up Short.
The bedding for a bow at farrowing
time should be sufficient only for clean
liness nnd dryness, writes a farmer in
American Agriculturist If furnished
In large quantities the little fellows
will b covered up with straw by the
usual pawing of an uneasy sow, mak
ing them liable to be lost or crushed.
All wheat or rye straw should be cut
Into short lengths and used sufficiently
to cover the floor slightly, but not
enough for her to paw Into a large pile
for a bed. After the youngsters are a
few days old and develop size and
strength Increase the straw sufficiently
for them to burrow into if tlio weather
la cold.
Hogs cannot be comfortable on con
crete floors, no matter how well they
are covered with straw. Thorp Is a
continual dampness that cannot be
overcome sufficiently to avoid rheuma
tism and other ailments caused by such
exposure. We build portable bunks
for each pen, made by placing on edge
Ave strips of 2 by 4 Inch scantling four
feet three Inches long, nnd to these nail
four boards one foot wide and nine feet
long, leaving one Inch space between
the boards for drainage. Around tho
four Bides of this platform or floor are
nailed boards one foot wide with a
Btrip of 2 by 4 in each corner to
strengthen them. This makes a Btrong,
inbstantlal bunk eight inches deep,
with tho floor raised four Inches above
the concrete, giving an air space which
always assures a dry bed.
Keep Bearings Adjusted.
Bee that all bearings, whether thoso
of the corn plow or wheat binder or
any other farm machine, are properly
adjusted. One loose bearing has a
tendency to loosen others. More harm
can be done to a machine by running
it on loose bearings for a few days
than would result in a year's ordinary
use.
Green For the Hens,
It pays to bury a few extra beads of
cabbage or pull a few bushels of tur
nips rather than let the frost strike
them. The hens relish green food dur
ing the winter months Just aa much as
w io lettuc and celerr.
