ARMY HORSES HARD TO GET.
Purchasing Department Finds Difficulty
In Meeting the Requirements*
The entire northwest Is being ran
sacked by agents of the war depart
ment in quest of horsea suitable for
the cavalry and artillery of the army.
The horses procured are for the most
part brought to Chicago, where they
are Inspected, and then distributed
wherever there is need of them. Among
the requirements are the color of the
animal, its weight and its height. The
owner must stand the expense of hav
ing the two front shoes removed, fur
nish a halter and have the animal
weighed. "It would require the ani
mals to be molded," said a horse trader
at the stockyards. "As yet there are
few horses that we have received that
come up to the requirements of the or
der, and an owner having a horse that
would answer the style that is wanted
by the army demands a larger price
than the government offers to pay."
The local horsemen state that the gov
ernment will have to make some allow
ance on the order or it will not get the
requisite number from this territory.
Horses are being secured that will
come up to the requirements in many
respects, but It is feared that they will
be turned down by the government
buyer the same as they were last year.

A gold stripe will mean five yea's of

On the line of the Chicago Electric

a vestibule, having a door in its front

The Calumet Compauy has no special

On either side of the casket the pall

ten or twelve inches above it. A very
elegant redingotehas a triple pelerine
covering the shoulders, while in front
shaped revers run the entire length.
Shown in the accompanying illus
tration is a new-model cloak suitable
for late fall of white cloth, fitting close
ly over the shoulders, and from thence
downward, flaring slightly and open
ing in the centre of the back over a
double fold of white velvet. Garni
ture is of chiuchilla; collar lined with
the same fur. Lining is maize surah,
slightly wadded. The design is from
the Dry Goods Economist.
It appears now very distinctly indi
cated that wraps, cloaks and redin
gotes will be far more fashionable than
jackets as the season advances, not,
however, to their entire exclusion, as
they are far too convenient and pretty
for that to be possible.
Another stylish redingote, also
sloped off in front, has three very n ar
row shaped flounces surrounding it,
and continuing up the front, diminish

Smart Autumn Jackets.
This soason's jackets are fasoinatiug
with their wonderful curves and tailor
finish. It is a mistake to suppose an
outside garment can be made at home.
It is the one thing that must have the
stamp of the tailor, and au exceeding
ly "smart" one at that. Stitching is
generally used on the new fall coats;
and, although it is a finish, it must be
kept thoroughly brushed, or the dust
whioh settles on its threads will give
even a new coat the appearance of
having been worn a long time.
The short doable-breastcd type of
jaokot shown in the large engraving
is most useful for autumn wear. This
■ style is especially adaptable in blue
cloth. Blue is a shade that always is
serviceable, and seldom looks shabby
even after a season's hard wear. The
model is blue cloth, with white
facings, and is lined throughout with
white satin, which, by the way, is one
of the best linings ever employed.
Crystal buttons add considerably to
the effect. The jacket flaps and a
narrow band at the waist are of white.
The other jacket shown in the
large engraving is an open one, and
simulates a double coat. This has a
shaped edge inserted between the
cloth and the lining. This inner coat
is fitted with revers which turn out
ward over the other revers, and both
are faced with white cloth. A vest of
ivory satin or silk, with jabot of
antique lace, ndds much to its utility
when something out of the ordinary
is needed for afternoon or evening
smart functions.
Gray Leads For Tailor Gowns.
The new tailor-made gowns, or
rather the stuffs from which they are
to be made, greet one as true and tried
old friends, for they are chiefly the
ever-popular gray shades.
Thnie Light-Sleeved Gowns t
The shoulders aud the tops of the
arms are so closely defined in the
newest gowns that the woman with
"wooden" shoulders, thin arms or a
bad carriage is looking wistfully for
ingenious ways of concealing her de
fects. The smart dressmakers say
they will not attempt to clothe young
girls or too slender women in these
severely simple bodices. A fold or
two or a suspicion of a frill of lace or
chiffon covers deficiencies and dooa
not interrupt the line'which fashion
ordains. A becoming pinafore dress
is produced by wearing over a lace
bodice a second halt bodice of foulard
or fine cloth, and inserting panels of
the lace in the skirt, narrowing from
the waist downward. The open part
of the overdress may be connected by
bands of velvet or stitohed straps of
cloth or silk, and similar bands can
be adapted us shoulder-straps. Ever

IVORY SOAP PASTE.
In fifteen minutes, with only a cake of Ivory Soap and water,
you can make a better cleansing paste than you can buy.
Ivory Soap Paste will take spots from clothing; and will clean
carpets, rugs, kid gloves, slippers, patent, enamel, russet leather and
canvas shoes, leather belts, painted wood-work and furniture. The
special value of Ivory Soap in this form arises from the fact that it
can be used with a damp sponge or cloth to cleanse many articles
that cannot be washed because they will not stand the free applica
tion of water.
DIRECTIONS FOR MAKING.—To one pint of boiling water add one and one-half ounces
(one-quarter of the small size cake) of Ivory Soap cut into shavings, boil five minutes after the soap is

Humbert of Italy was 24 when he mar

the emperor of Austria was 23 when he
wedded the lovely Princess Elizabeth,
who was only 16. The king of the Bel

tell him how Spain came to lose Chile,

colonies. The story was narrated so
thrillingly and artistically that tha
royal boy listened spellbound and con

sorbed in meditation. At last a thought
having struck him, he looked up to his

do in order to get back these countries
