What World Lost?

"It was the worst calamity that ever happened to me,” sighed the pale, intellectual high browed young woman. "I had written a modern society novel, complete to the last chapter, and a careless, servant girl gathered the sheets of the manuscript from the floor, where the wind had blown them, and used them to start a fire In the grate.’’ “What a burning shame that was!’’ commented Miss Tartan.

CHIC EFFECTS IN HATS SEASON’S HEADWEAR INCLINE TOWARD COQUETTISH. Flexible Hats of Velvet, Feit or Beaver Which Are Worn to Reach the Eyebrows Are Very Popular. In the headwear provided for our choice this season, a constantly growing tendency to soft, bonnet-like shapes, has developed; some lovely, coquettish looking models. There are any number of flexible hats of velvet, felt or beaver, and these are supplemented by others in which fur Is introduced. They set down over the head, and many are worn to reach the eye-

brows. As the season advances we may expect to see little bonnets of fur, or if not entirely of fur, then of velvet and fur, or beaver cloth and fur. One of the prettiest shapes is a cap of velvet with plaited velvet edge, trimmed with a novelty band in tarnished brass effect. The band is finished with an ornament made of the same material. Another smAU black velvet cap, whose crown is simply a puff of velvet, is finished with a plaited ruffle, very narrow, of shallow box plaits about the face A wreath of metallic foliage set with little tight silk roses, is an unforgettable finish. These wreaths show little roses of folded lustrous sijk, and metal cloth, in several soft colors. Old blue, rose pink and dark red, roses set sparingly about a long wreath of metallic

COMBINE VELVET AND FUR

Effects That Are Regal Produced bv Latest Wrinkle of Season’s Fashions. Of Infinite charm, and of undoubtedly just as much interest as millinery, fur Is a subject of which woman never tires. It is especially important In the discussion of allied fabrics this season, for fashion has combined fur with velvet, and the effects are regal. There is skunk fur that is a very good imitation of marten. For trimming any shades of velvet it is very successful, for the brown tones are harmonious on light or dark shades. Australian possum is another new claimant for favor, and raccoon is its close rival. Tailless ermine is much in demand on handsome gowns or hats of velvet, while the beautiful though perishable chinchilla vies with moleskin In the gray section. Scarfs, muffs, Wraps, gowns and hats are successful and extremely lovely when of velvet and fur.

Velvet Bags.

When you gather up the scraps of your velvet afternoon dress, don’t throw them away! Make them up into a soft bag that should be carried with the dress. It can be square or round, and whatever other material you wish, can be combined with it. A long silk cord, or silver or gold if you wish the metallic noth, must be attached. This is thrown over the arm. Beads, embroidery, little patches of tapestry or brocade fend braid or lace are easy ways of decorating the flat upper surface. Just as a personal touch, embroider your monogram in a circle or diamond down in one corner. Paris is quite enthusiastic over these bags and America promises to take up the fashion. This is merely a hint to clever women.

The Little Curl.

Little curls are coming in—little curls' across the forehead, in the nape of the neck, and if not in either of these places they must appear in little clusters at the back of the head. If a girl has not naturally curly hair the fashion is going to give her a great deal more trouble than puffs have, but it is an agreeable change, and curls are bewitching things, giving a softness to the face which is immensely becoming.

leaves and stems, placed against a black velvet crown, is perfect. Such a hat is a treasure and can be worn with anything In the way of gowns. It is comfortable as well as beautiful. There is no telling what wUI come of this liking for the flexible hat A pretty poke-bonnet effect of beaver, Is shown here. It is trimmed with a drapery of velvet. This hat is designed for street wear and will stand any amount of it. Where the hat is designed for business and must see daily service, silk Is better than velvet as a drapery. Either may be removed and renovated and replaced on the shape. JULIA BOTTOMLEY.

MATCHED SCARS AND MUFF

From Paris Comes Idea for Set That Is Less Expensive Than One of Fur. Straight from Paris comes the idea of a matched set thqt Is less expensive than one entirely of fur, and yet from the points of utility arid beauty is equally successful. A broad band of blackband white striped velvet forms the body of the scarf. The central portion is cut to fit the shoulders with a cape-like perfection, and the ends taper to graceful points, from which hangs deep fringe. An inner band of black fur Is used to outline the entire stole/ which is possibly three yards long. This fur is applied just inside the.edge, and a quilling of satin or mousseline softens the outer .line. With this there comes a muff, large, supple and flat. Striped velvet forms the central band, on each side of which is the fur, and broader puffing of velvet makes the assurance of size doubly sure. Quillings outline the openings at the sides. Any idea can be carried out along these lines. Indeed, there is no excuse for old-fashioned sets being kept in camphorated inactivity. Bring them out and make them join forces with velvet or silk. The scarf and muff to match are too good to be missed!

Metallic Embroidery.

The very newest in ‘the ever-popular scarf is quite capable of being made up at home. It is a scarf of metal tissue net—usually gold or silverembroidered with a wavy border of narrow braid and an inner and more complicated pattern of beads, all in exactly the same tone. How beautiful this would be worked out, say, in copper, or in iridescent net, can easily be imagined. It is work that is charming to do, and is remarkably attractive when it is done. Never was there an effect of so much opulence for so little time and trouble!

A CONVENIENT SPONGE BAG

Consists of a Square Composed of Crochet Rings, With Oil Silk Lining. This is quite a practical as well as a decorative bag for holding a wet sponge or washing glove. It consists of a square composed of crochet rings, with oil silk lining. The bag may be made in any size according to the size and number of the rings. You must procure a number of celluloid rings such as are

used for drawing up bags, and work over them in double crochet. "Ososilkle” of a color to correspond with the toilet set should be used for the crochet, and the rings must be closely covered with double crochet, working four plcots of six chain stitches at equal distances. The rings are then joined together with a needle and cotton, or they may be joined together when working the picots, but they must be carefully joined so as to lie quite flat and to form a square, the spaces between the rings to be filled in with long spider-web stitches, such as are used in filling in lace work. A square of silk of another color in the service is next pinked at the edge, and lined with another square of oil silk, also pinked, is plaqed Inside crochet square, and both are sewn together by a few stitches;, lengths of ribbon are passed through the four corners and are joined together in a bow at the top; silk pompoms further ornament the lower part

THRESHING RETURNS FROM WESTERN CANADA.

They Reveal* Larger Averages of Wheat and Oats Than Anticipated. The returns from the grain fields of Western Canada as revealed by the work of the Threshers, show much larger yields than were expected as the crop was ripening. It is a little early -yet to give an estimate of the crop as a whole, but individual yields selected from various points throughout Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta show that the farmers there as a rule have,had reason to be thankful over the results. Excellent yields are reported from many portions of Manitoba and a large district of Saskatchewan has turned out well, while the central portion of Alberta is splendid. There will be shown at the land exposition at St. Louis a sample of the Marques wheat—a new variety and <®e that appears to be well adapted to the soil and climate of Western Canada—that yielded 53 bushels to the acre. The exhibit and statement will be supported by affidavits from the growers. This wheat weighs well, and being a hard variety will find a ready market at the highest prices obtainable for a first-class article. It is interesting to point out that a field of one hundred .acres of this wheat would give its producers 5,300 bushels. Sold at 85 cents a bushel would give him $45 an acre. Counting all the cost of Interest on land at S2O an acre, getting the land ready for crop. Seed sowing, harvesting and marketing, the entire cost of production would not exceed SB. an acre, leaving the handsome net profit of $37 an acre. Is there any crop that would yield a better return than this, with the same labor and initial expense? Cotton fields will not do it, apple orchards with their great expense of cultivation and the risk to run from the various enemies of the fruit cannot begin to do it. While what is considered an exceptional case just now is presented, there is no doubt that this man’s experience may be duplicated by others who care to follow his example. As has been said the growing of this wheat is but in its infancy, and wheat growing is still largely confined to other older varieties that do not yield as abundantly. Even with these we have records before us of farmers who have grown bushels to the acre., others 35, some 30, and others again 25 bushels. Taking even 20 bushels, and some farmers report that amount, it is found that the returns from such a yield would be sl7 an acre. This wheat will cost to get to market, including all expenses, about $8 an acre, and the .farmers will still have a net profit of about $9 an acre. Certainly the provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba are progressing, settlement is increasing and there is a general contentment all over the country. The social conditions are splendid, the climate is excellent, and there is every condition to .make the settler satisfied. At the farming congress, held at Spokane in October, wheat shown by the Alberta Government, took the sliver cup, awarded by the Governor of the State. It completely outclassed’ all other specimens on exhibition, and it was but an ordinary selection, hundreds of fields in Alberta and Saskatchewan being able to duplicate it. There are still available thousands of homesteads, as well as large areas of first-class land—that is being offered for sale at low.prices. The agent of the Canadian Government from whom the above facts have been learned expects that the rush to Canada will next year largely exceed the numbers who have gone this year.

Does Your Cat Cough?

Poor pussy! As if the Immemorial charges against her of keeping us awake o’ nights and of eating canary birds whenever she gets the chance were not enough, the doctors have just discovered that for years she has been responsible for the spread of diphtheria. Dr. G. J. Awburn of Manchester, England, having traced an epidemic of this disease in a suburb of that city, to a pet cat belonging to one of his patients, has found, after much clever. Investigation, that all cats are peculiarly susceptible to diphtheritic affections of . the throat. He has therefore recently been warning all families who own cats to watch them carefully, and, if they develop coughs, to forbid their being hugged and petted. Dr. Awburn further recommends that if the cough persists and the cat begins to grow thin to have the animal destroyed at once. The only really safe way, he says, is to let the first wheeze be pussy’s death warrant

Russia’s Growing Population.

This year’s census of the Russian empire adds another five millions to the population as enumerated in 1908. The czar’s subjects now number 160,000,000 and increase every year by 2,500,000 despite wars, epidemics and internal disturbances. As there is no lack of cultivated soil in Russia there seems no reason why this big annual increase should not continue.
