HER SHOES ARE LARGER. Thc Athletic Girl Is Buying Bigger Gloves, Too. Tho athletic girl of today is a sur grise tb people who have not boen noding her developments.

But tile athletic girl who has been brought up in a family where she has had an opportunity to live a healthful ' natural life, with plenty of outdoor exercise, laughs at such tiny things. The athletic girl has brought about an entlre^change in the hosiery de partment?"'of ?he shops. There was never juilme. when there wero pret tier or more extragavant things for women In the cobweb varieties of fine lisle thread and silk. Women wear these cxpensivo things for outdoor sports as well as for dress occasions, but tho sizes have developed with the women who wear them. Where 8. 8% and 9 were five, years ago, the girl of today wears 9%. 10, 10%, and she would often wear ll, if she could get it.

In the "misses' department" of the fashionaole shoe store spring heel shoes range from children's sizes up to boots so big that they might be long to young giantesses. They are for athletic girls who are .kept chil dren as long as pcssible and wear the spring heel j? boots until they are ready to make their bow to society. Gloves have changed with other ?c cessories 'of the feminine wardrobe, and ths well-built girl wears 6%, 7 and IVs, in place of 5%. 5% and 6 that have been worn.

When the Egyptian government placed a large order for railway bridges of exceptional size in the United States. British makers of such goods excused their backwardness in allowing the business to slip out of their ?lands on the ground that cer tain American firms happened to have the very things required in stock. The same extenuation, was pleaded when American locomotives were preferred to English when oc casion arose to increase at once the rolling stock of some Burmese rail ways.

It works more injury every year to farms in this country than many other causes to which attention ls given. It spreads slowly apparently, but it sooner or later takes full possession of the land and unless eradicated the en tire farm becomes worthless. The ; heavier seeds', which are carried by wind6, will germinate, but its progresa ls by means of long white root stocks, which are proof against disease and season3. It is claimed that a piece of root stock If left in the soil will grow from six to ten feet in a season and from each small piece as many as six ty heads will grow. The best season for beginning the war on thistles is in June. Plough thc land and then plough again every few weeks until well into th? fall, the object being to destroy the young growth as fast as it appears, as any plant must succumb if deprived of forming leaves, as plants breathe through the agency of .the leaves. Another plan is to allow them to grow until the plants are just high enough to mow and then run the mower over the field, repeating the work as fast as thc plants appear. As the farmer may prefer to utilize the land he can plough the land and plant it to potatoes. If he will then give the potato crop frequent cultiva tion he will destroy many of the thistles and tho potatoes will pay for the labor. It may not be possible to subdue the thistles the first year, but if th? work is well (Tone the thistles may be completely destroyed the sec ond year, when the ground should be ploughed in the spring and a crop of oarly cabbages grown, removing the cabbage crop and broadcasting the land, after ploughing and harrowing with Hungarian grass seed. AB Hun garian grass seed grows rapidly and may be mowed once a month it gives the thistles but little chance, while the I present cultivation of the cabbage crop will have greatly reduced the thistles In number. Tho point is to keep the thistles cut down from July to frost, after which they will be under control. The roadsides mus? also be carefully attended to, for it is on the unculti vated roadsides that weeds are neglec ted and hence arc protected. Neigh bors should also work harmoniously in the destruction of weeds, as frequently somo negligent farmer injures the en tire community by producing thc seeds | of weeds which are carried by the winds over a largs area. Weeds may aleo be carried long distances on the tops of railroad cars or by water; in fact, there arc so many modes of dis tribution that it is almost impossible for any farmer to escapo the nuisance of weeds, but all farmers can prevent their spread, and in protecting his neighbor he also protects himself. The Canada thistle is not so great a nuis ance as many suppose if farmers will determine to combat it.3 spread.-Chi cago Chronicle. GOOD MILCH COWS. Good milch cows are quite a source of profit on the farm. And no matter how good the breed, unless cows havo proper food and a sufficiency of fresh i water daily, they cannot produce a great quantity of milk. All cow own ers should study these questions if they wish to get thc best results. Grass is one of the most important croire. Red clover ls the favorite crop. Next to grass ls corn fodder. Carrots, beets, peas, and apples are all good. Every farmer should grow carrots and betts; they are far the best milk-producing vegetables. Grow and feed yellow car rots to improve the color of the butter. The quantity required for a cow can only be determined by trial. See to It that the cows are in perfectly good health, which will enable them to re ceive full benefit from their fee'd, give perfect digestion, and produce more milk and butter. Water is a necessity to cows, and lt should be pure, cool, and always within meir reach. Water before feeding and let the heaviest feed be at night. Salt is another neces sity, and about an ounce and a half should be mixed with their food daily. Always clean the teats with a dry cloth before milking. Milk rapidly with dry hands and be sure the udder is emp tied. Never scold or hit the cow. Talk gently to her and she will repay by giving more milk. Have perfect ven tilation, drainage and every thing neat and clean in the stable or the milk will become tainted. Impure milk Is caused by carelessness or diseased cows. Careful selection, good breed ing, proper stabling, common sense In feeding and watering, will produce the best returns for the time and labor ex pended in this branch of farming. E. L. Morris, in Agricultural Epit omlst. TO PREVENT SWARMING. With a colony which is provided with an extracting super, even the primary swarm can often be prevented. When the colony, shows signs of be coming too populous, it should be ex amined and if the brood combs are well filled with brood two or three frames containing sealed brood should be removed to the super and their places filled with empty combs. If there is drone brood in the brood combs it should be removed be fore it is placed above. The perforated zinc mat between the hive and super will not permit the drones to pass through, hence the reason for destroy ing the drone brood. Such an arrangement will give the queen plenty of room In which to de posit her eggs and the worker bees I will continue to store honey and to care for their brood in the super above, j As soon as this brood has hatched, the I operation of exchanging frames should be repeated, not" only once but again and again, until the press of brood reaping is over. This plan is equally as successful as extracting the honey from the frames of the hive proper. The colony is not weakened by having more or less of its unsealed brood de stroyed. The bees are not distressed or excited, and there is no danger of robbing them of needed stores in case. ! of a sudden dearth of honey.-Millie ! Honoker, in American Agriculturist. CROP BOUND FOWLS. Some of thc fowls that have free I range during the summer months are j very likely to become crop boundi This condition is caused by their eating long strands of frost killed gras3, which wind into a ball and gradually include within their tbids all that en ters the crop. The fowl eats raven ously, but the food docs her no good, as nothing can pass beyond the crop; If not relieved she must soon starve. If taken In hand at the start, the congest ed food can bc made to pass by knead ing with the fingers, but the fowl's con dition is not likely to be noticed until her crop is quite full, and the violent choking-like efforts call attention io the case. The remedy then is to tak? a sharp penknife and make an incision into the crop, large enough to clean out Its entire contents easily. Wash the crop out with warm water, and then with a fine needle and silk thread sew up tho opening, also the Incision in tte outer skin. Puj the fowl in a* coop alone, feed her on soft feed, and In a few days she will be all right.-New York Tribune Farmer. CLEANING HARNESS. Whether the harness ls black "or brown, a very little cleaning material should be used, and a great deal of el bow-grease* in-polishing. Too much composition or blacking "gums" the harness, and cause lt to crack and work badly. Harness that gets in to thi3 condition should be well washed with soda water, sponged dry, given a good coat of dye and oil, and hung up for a few days for the oil to penetrate the leather before being cleaned in the ordinary way. A lump of bees-wax rubbed over the polishing brush increases durability and thc "waterproof qualities of the blacking. After the whole of the har ness has been cleaned, metal . and leather, rub lt over with a soft duster or old silk handkerchief to remove finger-marks, etc., paying special at tention to the winkers, pad, collar and other patent leather parts, which re quire no other cleaning when new or in good condition.-The Cultivator. SORE SHOULDERS. Sore shoulders are more in evi dence when the heavy run of spring work is on, after a long winter of ir regular work and confinement in the stable than they are now, but even at this season there are cases when much discomfort is caused that, by a little extra care, could be averted. There aro horses with defectively shaped shoulders or thin skins that aro very easily put wrong in this way, but, as a rule, the defect ls more in the horse man than in the horse. Thc collar must be made to flt com fortably and be kept clean and smooth, and the traces made equal length so as to have the strain fairly balanced to both shoulders. The collar should bo taken off as soon as the horse i8 out of thc yoke, and, if necessary, the shoulder washed with cold water. Car bollzed vaseline is an excellent appli cation, both to prevent and heal soro shoulders. ~' P. AI SING BEANS. The. easiest way T ever raised beans was on sod? A clover sod is best, if you have one, although any other kind of ged will do if free from weeds; but low meadows must not be chosen, as beans require high, dry land to make a good crop. After danger of frost is over break it up quite deep, from five to six inches, go over it lengiThvlso with a disk harrow and cut it up fine; avoid going crosswise as this would turn up the sod. Choose some dwarf variety ol field beans; they will not be Injured by high winds as large growing varieties would. Drill seed in with corn plant er, dropping one bean every eight or ten Inches. They will require very lit tle or no weeding. When rrpe pull, dry and thresh at once.-Lewis Olsen, In Tho Epltomist. DEFECTIVE GARDEN SOIL. Thc family garden may be Improved and put Into a high state of fertility by articial means if lt is found to be de fective. It it consists of stiff clay, or very heavy loam, add sand to it. Sand should be spread evenly over the ground from two to three imhes deep, according to the condition of the soil. Plow and work it well with disc and harrow. Such treatment will make the soil more porous and warm. If the soil should be defective in humus, add dead leaves, straw and coarse manure; plowing all under deep. A crop of clover, cow-pease or rye, plowed under, green, will further help to add fertility and destroy troublesome weeds. WINTER EGGS. It is necessary to have early hatched pullets or yearling hens to secure many eggs In winter. With thc same care and food old hens do not lay half as many eggs as young fowls. I have also found that it is essential that they have plenty of exercise in comfortable quarters, and a roosting place free from cold drafts at night. I find it is better for the hens to hunt in the lit ter for all whole grain fed them than to have it supplied in trough.-J. H. M., in New England Homestead. What the Lips Show. The upper lip should be bow shaped, while the lower should form the arc of a circle, and to be ideally beauti ful the lower lip should show more red than the upper. The lips should bc moderately full. Thick lips show a sensuous tempera ment; thin lips, exhibiting little or no color, while indicating firmness and will power, are also indicative of a lack of amiability, and, according to other indications in the face, may show meanness, if not avarice. Firm ly closed lips indicate determination; open Hps, weakness and vacillation. The open mouth is a characteristic of idiots, says Woman's Life. The upper lip should ..have a slight curve inward before its union with the nose, for the straight lip Indicates Its owner to be unamiable and unin telligent. Much depends on the length of the upper lip. The distance from it to thc nose should be one-half the breadth of the mouth. A short upper lip indicates liveliness, wit, fertility of Invention, brilliancy of repartee. A long upper Hp Is generally indicative of stupidity. Tanning by Electrolysis. The process of rapid tanning by electrolysis has failed. TRAVELERS' GIFTS. Useful Things fl.. Remembrances to Tourle Friends. Useful gifts to ny traveller are the rubber or oil ft'c lined toilet sets. These consist of>. bag for sponge and wash rag, and aflat case, with flaps, for soap% com] tooth brush, nail brush and hair hish. The cases are made of whiteor tinted linen, em broidered in cutrasting color, with white as a favf.'ite. Those who do not embroider an bind the edges of their cases andbags with narrow col ored ribbon. Only a trailer can realize the comfort of thfe rubber lined cases.

The portion that ls left I open is tur?d up on the side of the pillow and ?ewed to it at each end, leaving an open pocket into which a shawl, bpk or fancy work, or all three may ie tucked. A strap of the same mateial is fastened to the ends of the pilljv/, which can be carried in the han! or slung over tho shoul der. Such pilbws arc usually made In dull colorsand simply worked around the borderjon the strap and the hem of the po^cet with feather stitching. A narrow jlnen or cotton braid would be quite ai pretty. Most wfmen who go to the moun tcjns are ?so charmed by the beauty of the fens that they yield to the temptation to dig up the graceful clusters jand decorate their rooms with then. Unfortunately, crinkled paper art other coverings for flowor pots carnot be procured in most mountain resorts, and even they who sell ferre in tomato cans do not al ways hke their presti?o glimmer with blrfh bark. Travellers In the mountaiis, therefore, would be grate . ful for something to cover their fern dishes.!
