Stranger Lost the Confidence of Truth-
ful Fisherman When He made
His Inquiry.
Representative Frank Clark. Rep-
i resentative Howard of Georgia, and
i Superintendent George W. Hess of
the botanic gardens, were having a
friendly argument at Washington.
"Howard," said Clark, banteringly,
"I Just want to illustrate to you in
a story how little you know about
this. There Is In my district in Flor-
ida an attractive village named Cal-
lahan.
"One day a stranger walking along
a road in the country near a creek
saw a youth Ashing.
" 'Young man,' said the ministerial-
looking individual, 'can you tell me
the way to Callahan?"
"'Yes,' replied the boy, 'take the
first rood to your right.'
"Instead of proceeding on his jour-
ned, the stranger ganed Intently at
the boy a few moments and said: 'My
young friends, don't you know you
are wasting your time In a way that
is dreadful to contemplate? You are
fishing, just fishing, when you ought
to be a-studyln' of books to prepare
yourself for life's struggle. My boy,
you're sure on the road to perdition.'
" 'Road to perdition,' replied the In-
dignant youth. 'What in blazes do
you know about roads? You don't
even know the road to Callahan.'"

A MUCH sketched and much talked-
of costume, worn at the Chantilly
races, is pictured at the left of the
snapshot photograph which appears
here. It Is in black satin with the
longest of whit^ lace tunics over It
and a black satin coat. With the
same color combination, used in re-
verse order, is a costume of white
satin with overdrape of black lace,
at the right of the picture.
A throng of people attend these
meets for the sole purpose of staging
costumes in the ipost effective of set-
tings. These people demonstrate the
modes and launch new styles. They
form the centers of attraction for that
greater throng that is in attendance
for the purpose of looking at them.
The handsome costume which
caused so many modistes to take no-
tice and so many artists to level cam-
eras or ply pencils, is chiefly remark-
able for the oddity of the lace of
which the tunic is made. Patterned
after an old idea, modern lace, show-
ing figures on a net ground, was used
for this tunic. But the figures are
distinctly up to date, show ing girls in
sweeping draperies and graceful out-
lines encircling the tunic near the bot-
tom. The figures and draperies are
cleverly outlined with run-in threads
and they, with the garlands of flowers
and other figures, are brought out In a
cameo-like relief by the underskirt of
black satin.
The coat Is not allowed to distract
the attention from this clever posing
of odd lace. It la entirely plain, but
quite original In cut. The hat 1b of
black satin with two extravagantly
long Numidi feathers sweeping be-
yond the brim edge.
The attention of the seeker for new
styles having been seized by this
novel gown, he notes its details to
find new features worth remember-
ing. First, its simplicity; then the
extra length of tunic and width of pet-
ticoat; and most noticeable, the wide
hat brim, which is a radical new de-
parture.
It is not often that anything so
striking is at the same time so ele-
gant. The combination of black and
white makes this possible.
The second gown is hardly less
noteworthy and only a shade less orig-
inal. The tunic is of black net, hav-
ing an insert of lace wrought In and
a border of very wide velvet ribbon
above the hem. It is set on to the
bodice of black net by a band of black
velvet. The long sleeves are of net
and lace in black. There la that orig-
inal touch which means everything in
the really gorgeous embroidery In
white figures which ornaments the net
bodice.
The white feather turban worn with
this costume is a prominent feature in
styles of the hour.

Outspoken.
Mrs. Smith's four sons made the life
of her old colored servant a burden.
One day Uncle Andy was busy in the
garden lioeing corn, and for half an
hour Tom, the most mischievous of the
quartet, had amused himself throwing
clods of dirt at him. At last Andy
threw down his hoe and stamped indig-
nantly down to the house.
"Miss Ella," he said, to the little cul-
prit's mother, "Ah jes' has to tell yu
dat dat boy Tawm am de meanes' chile
yu got—an' Ah tells you fo' yo' face
and tells you behine yo' back!"
Coming Changes in Hairdressing Styles
HAT brims are growing wider and
modiBtes foretell a vogue for large
hats, to begin with the fall season.
Large hats and small, simple coiffures
do not harmonize, and already the
light puff for flllfng out the coiffure
has made Its appearance. We have
also to consider small hair rolls or
pads for supporting the hair, and
coiffures are quite generally dressed
in waves. These are the wavelets
that are breaking upon a new shore-
line in hairdressing, speaking figura-
tively; they are foretelling a rising
tide of favor for more display in the
management of the hair. The coiffure
shown here pictures the hair parted
at one side and waved in smooth, reg-
ular undulations. There is a short
lock at the front arranged In a light
curl. Some of the new styles show
two very precise ringlets, one on each
side of a middle part. For this style
the hair Is also waved, but more loose-
ly, and the coil is arranged lower on
the neck.
Long, light puffs help out in build-
ing up a coiffure and a few of them,
arranged about a coll, make the new
styles easy to accomplish.
The coiffure arranged on top of the
bead, the hair combed back from
the face is liked by the younger
women. Only a few curls about the
face relieve the plainness of this style,
but a mass of hair piled on top of the
head makes a piquant arrangement
suited to youthful faces.
Puffs and short curls are becoming
to everyone and look as well on grand-
mama as on her daughter and daugh-
ter's daughter. They are most suc-
cessful when made separately and
pinned on, for they can be easily
dressed and placed wherever needed.
There is no very good reason why
one should not borrow the charm that
belongs to them unless a prejudice
against wearing separate pieces of
hair can be construed as reasonable.

Have you seen the new washable
tango girdles? They are made of
mercerized poplin, embroidered in
white or colors, if preferred. They
are passed twice around the waist and
finished with two embroidered ends
which hang at the side.

ECZEMA ON CHILD'S FACE
Marpleton, W. Va.—"When my little
boy was one year old he broke out in
little fine pimples all over his face.
At times they would dry up and get
scaly and peel off, then they would
break out fresh again. He would
scratch them until his face would be
raw. The eczema looked angry and
ran blood and corruption. His face
was red and disfigured. He seemed
restless and I had to be up with him
the greater part of the nights.
"I applied various remedies without
result. He continued to break out
with the eczema until I sent for some
Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I used
them and the first application eased
him. In ten days he was completely
cured." (Signed) Mrs. Lizzie Mollo-
han, Jan. 2, 1914.

Many farmers are making a hard or
doubtful living on high-priced lands in
localities cursed with insect pests, or
floods, or drought, or weed plagues,
or other enemies to successful farm-
ing. The end of each year finds time
and energy practically wasted—no
progress made. Spur Farm Lands
offer relief from these conditions.
The tenant on the high-priced lands
further east can make a payment and
be master of his own acres here. Any
good farmer can pay for them from
the products thereof. The Spur Farm
Lands offer productive, virgin lands—
easily cultivated—at low prices and
on easy terms. Splendid crops are
raised without Irrigation. No boll
weevil ever known here. Altitude
2,000 to 2,600 feet.
Considering the reliable production
of these lands, prices are lowest in
Texas; new country, settling fast;
splendid climate, no malaria, chills or
fever; good churches and schools.
We offer the homeseeker a wide range
for selection and are selling direct-
no commission to anyone. The pur-
chaser receives full value In his lands
in dealing direct with the owner as
opposed to paying a middleman sever-
al dollars per acre.
Stock Farms and Small Ranch Tracts.
We also offer fine grazing tracts,
perfectly adapted to this purpose—one

NO EXPERT WITNESS NEEDED
Quite Evident Mr. Miggs Was Right
When He Testified as to the
Handwriting.
"Libel, Indeed!"
Old Miggs repeated the words to
himself dully and uncomprehending-
ly, as he tramped along to the court,
where he was to appear as witness
in a local libel suit.
Nervously he entered the witness
box.
| The fierce looking lawyer eyed him
calculatingly.
"Do vou swear," be asked, "that this
is not your handwriting?"
"1 don't think so," stammered
Miggs.
"Now, be careful," insinuated the
lawyer. "Are you prepared to swear
that this handwriting does not resem-
ble yours?"
• Yes," answered Miggs trembling.
"You take your oath that this does
not in any way resemble your hand-
writing?" solemnly queried the
learned man.
"Y-yes, sir," stammered the witness,
now thoroughly frightened.
"Well, then, prove it!" denounced
the lawyer, triumphantly, as he
thrust his head toward the witness.
This action woke the last spark of
drooping courage in poor Miggs, and,
| thrusting forth his head, he yelled:
Cos I can't write!"

"Why Is the scholarly-looking man

"I will tell you why. the scolarly-
looking man Is slamming down his
w inddws so hard."
"The scholarly-looking man Is
slamming down his windows so hard
because the hurdy-gurdy out In front
is playing the same tunes that he
paid five dollars to hear last night at
grand opera."—Judge.
Mole Trap the Best.
The best way to exterminate the
ground mole is to use a mole trap. A
good trap will probably be successful
eventually.
It isn't until a man approaches the
top that the world is anxious to give
him a boost.
Law's Uncertainties.
"When you poke a toad," said old
Farmer Ilornbeck, philosophically,
'you can't tell which way he will
jump, nor how far; an' it is jest about
the same way with a jury."
"That so?" returned young Jay
Green, in a noncommittal way.
"Yep. For instance, in the case of
Plunk Jarvis, who has jest been tried
over at IClckyhasset courthouse for
pullin' out his brother-in-law's whis-
kers by the roots in a fight, the jury
discharged Plunk an' fined his brother-
in-law 10 cents, the regular price of a
shave."—Puck.
