THE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE. NORTH PLATTE, NEBRASKA. MAY TAKE MATTER INTO COURT GERMAN SHELLS BURSTING OVER FRENCH POSITION Supreme Body Will Probably Decldo Financing the State Pure Food Commission. Suiting Oneself the Rule for Coiffures Just go on and wear your hair aB you will, in any way most becoming to you, for tho goddess of fashion will nod indifferent approval on anything. For 30'mo monthB this capricious deity has refusod to bo interested in hair dressing styles. Sho did sit up and tako notice when the bobbed coiffure made its debut. It was so novul and bo different, no one could help notic ing. It is a lovely style for youthful faces. A few young women were willing to go tho length of cutting off "bob bing" the hair at tho sides for tho sako of tho stylo, but many wore not. These very qenslblo ones achieved a halrdross wRh tho bobbed effect by bringing tho hair out over tho cheeks and turning tho ends under. Tho back hair was disposed of in a flat coll low on the crown, and all held in placo by much pinning and by bands of narrow velvet-ribbon. Older women havo remained faith ful to waved hair combed in a small pompadour and dressed with a knot, rather high on tho head. Others, with youthful faces, havo been most suc cessful with hair unwaved but pinned Into becoming lines about tho face, it is drawn back and twisted into n knot which supports largo ornamental shell pins. An oxamplo of this style, with everything to recommend it, is pictured hero. This is tho manner of arranging tho hair about tho face which Is favored by tho majority of women. Tho disposition of tho hair at tho back is only govorned by tho choice and taste of tho Individual. Use Jersey Cloth. Jersey cloth is used for tho middy sweater of silk or silk fiber. This is tho only sweater now used that slips on and off over tho head. It has white sailor collar and cuffs, and is laced through four or flvo holes nt the front with silk cord. It is especially attrac tivo for very young girls. , Shawl Coats. There aro some interesting import ed coats made of big shawls or steam er rugs, with fringe around tho bot tom and edging tho capo section that falls over tho sleeves, or sometime edging tho wide collar Instead. Pretty Undermuslins of Sheer Materials DMHKI SB Embroideries for women's under garments tho sorts that aro sold by tho yard havo grown moro and moro sheer until now ono must look twice to discover whether some of thorn are of silk chiffon or of swlss. Sine weaves In voile havo proven to bo prac tical as a background for dainty em broidery patterns to bo used in under wear becauso their wearing qualities aro equal to thoeo of tho materials used In tho body of tho garments. In fact a good quality of sheer cotton voilo ombroldery will outwear tho nainsook or muslin which It trims. Speaking of sheer materials in un dergarments, it is not to bo over looked that chiffon and lino crepes como in for much consideration in tho moro expenslvo and less practical frivolities that aro so enticingly pret ty. Petticoats to bo worn with neg ligees, underbodices for wear with thin blouses, and oven less conspicu ous garments aro mado of theso fragllo fabrics. Dut enticingly pretty garments aro also mado of flno cottons that' emergo from tho tub as good as now. Tbo envelope chemise shown In tho pic- Points Involved in tho dispute over tho financing of tho pure food commission aro likely to bo lam before tho supremo court within a short tlnio. Tho nffair will como up in a 'case brought by Governor Moro head to compel Treasurer Hall to tnnko tho nnvments of fire and food commission vouchors. Tho court will likely give tho matter attention at nnc.o. Thorn is a rlinnco tho railway commission will bo disturbed in its present relationship, and that Govern. or Morchcad will take kindly to At torney General Reed's suggestion that that body as now composed, is exist ing contrary to law. If tho governor does this ho will unseat all tho pres ent members and that would glvo tho people of tho state a chaiico to express themselves upon Tom Hall. Both Halls would then como up for expression next year ono on tho re publican and ono on tho democratic ticket. turo given hero bears witness to this. It is mado in tho empire style and Is tho simplest thing to put together. Tho short "baby" waist Is merely al ternatlng strips of val insertion and swlss embroidery, with edges whipped togethor. Under tho arms tho em broidery strips are omitted becauso at this point of most wear tho lace is moro desirable. The short waist Is finished at the bottom with a narrow open beading which Joins it to tho skirt portion of tho chemise. Tho necfr and armholes are edged with val lace, set on about tho nock with a very narrow beading, Mngerio ribbon Is run in tho bead tngs. It Is to bo tied In full bows when the garment is adjusted. The bottom of tho chemise is longthoned at tho back, cut into a tab and finished with laco edging, Two buttonholes aro worked In tho tab and fasten over small, flat pearl buttons that aro sowed to tho front This adjustment of tho chemlso gives its namo of "tno envelope" und kpops It from bundling up about tho llguro wncn its wearer walks much.

Tho date sot for the excursion is September 22. In order to secure good results from hogging down com, sonio protein sup plement must bo supplied tho pigs. For tills purpose nothing excels u good alfalfa or clover pasture adjoin ing the cornfield. If either of these legumes is unavailable, rape may b sown In the corn at tho last cultiva tion. However, unless there' is a thin stand of coin, it is not likely that a good crop of rape can bo secured. If rape Is sown, about six pounds of seed to tho aero should bo used. Til Dwarf Essex variety of rape is the best for pasture purposes. In tho ab sence of a protein feed in tho way of nurture, excellent results can be se cured by using such feeds as tankage. meat meal, and oil meal.
