Delegates representing a number oC neighboring farmers in Clay County , Minnesota , who visited the Edmonton district of Western. Canada last sum mer are evidently very well satisfied with the result of their trip. They think BO well of the country that in addition to the privilege of obtaining a free homestead of 100 acres of land they have also purchased land. In a recent interview on the subject Messrs. C. E. and A. Hughes of Barncsville , Clay Co. , say : "We are well pleased with Western Canada. It is far ahead of what we ex pected. We flild the climate to be warmer than we expected. As for the crops AVC have never seen anything that can compete with them. We have lived in Minnesota and have farmed some of what they count the best lands in the Red River Valley for ten years and have done very well in that part of the country , and have farms there at pres ent free of all encumbrance , but be lieve that this country ( Western Can ada ) is so much better that we have bought from the Canadian Pacific Rail way Company one section of land northeast of Edmonton in the Beaver Hill district. AVe have traveled through that part of the country and have seen the grain in the granaries and the amount of land that it was taken off and find that tJioy have grown as much as fifty bushels and over to the acre , and they say that this has not been a good year , and very little , if any , grain has been touched by the frost. Hay seems to be plentiful , and if you wish to put up log buildings yon can get the logs within a few miles. Coal can be had at the mines for 73 cent's per ton , or you can dig it yourself. Nearly all kinds of garden truck can be grown in abundance. We find everything that can be grown in good demand. The farmers tell us that they can got four and a half live weight per hundred for ho rs , and for three-year-old steers from fifty to sixty dollars per head , providing they are good. We will move into that part of the country next summer. All the people in that part of the country seem satisfied , and we do not see any reason why they should not be so. ' ' The Messrs. Hughes also stated that they would be very glad to afford any one desiring particulars about the coun try they had visited the fullest information mation , on receiving inquiries , at Barncsville , Clay County , before the 1st of .Tune next , when , it is understood , they propose to return to the Edmonton district.

The first requisite for a good mother is good health. r Health of body means health of the g-enerative organs. Jteaci what Mrs. GK A. N Bluffton , Ohio , says about , Lydia E. Pink- ham's Vegetable Compound , and hov/ well it prepared her for maternity : ' DE AH MRS. PIXKIIAM : I must say a word in praise of your Vegetable Compound. I used three bottles of it when I was preg1- . r nant. and labor was not neai-ly as long as it wasv.ilh my other babies ; and iny baby is so healthy to what the others were. I think every woman should use your Compound , when preg nant , it will save them so mch suffer ing1 and misery. I cannot say enough in praise of it. If ever I need medicine again , I shall use your Compound. ' ' The most successful tonic known to inedicino for women approaching- - ternity is Lydia E. Piukharra's Vege table Compound. IL is a safeguard for every woman who uses it , and the fullest benefit coines from its \ use with Mrs. Pinkham's advice freely offered to all woman. Her address is Lynn , Mass. 'Here is a , convincing statement , bearing directly on this subject. from Mrs. E. llignop , of 1S4S Pacific - , ? r V [ treatbelieCompound. .

" A Million W. men have teen Benefited fey Mrs. PinKiiatn's Advice asdMeSidse I' ' ! THE NEWEST THINGS. WHAT THE GOOD DRESSERS ARE WEARING. Clotli Skirts that Will Go with Differ ent Waists Are Popular An Old Bodice that Stays , as Well as Sonic I < ate Arrivals. Ne\v York correspondence : T is quite the fancy to have a gown of broadcloth , ladies' cloth , or some well- chosen novelty. Bodice ice and skirt are to match , but not in such a way that | | they may not be | 2 worn with other skirts and bodices. The gown in this in itial picture matched in its two parts , but the skirt was made with a view to its use with other bed ices. Hosts of fine , , , new gowns are plan- jfjl ned along similar ' lines. lines.While While this trick of economy can be easily managed with sufficient adroitness to disguise it , it should be remembered that many women are up to the same game , so Avill be quick to discover it in another woman's gown. So it is espe cially desirable to employ some material that is superior to criticism either be cause of fine quality or newness. A good one to choose was that in which the art ist found this dress. It was a new corded cloth intended for use Avith cloth of plain surface to match. In this costume the bodice was entirely of the corded stuff , the skirt plain except for trimming of bands of the corded material. The color of the dress was a rich red , which is so much worn this winter by women of all complexions. Such a skirt of red cloth is esteemed an entirely correct part of a dressy costume when worn with a fancy waist of silk , satin or cloth elaborated with fancy yoke , and it was very attrac tive with its own bodice , so a deal can be accomplished by imitating such planning. The fancy bodice still lives fashionably , CLOTH SUITS TIIAT WERE NOT TLAXXED IN ECONOMY. init when those of the current styles are compared with those women wore a few seasons ago. one must admit that the gar ment's fandfulness has greatly diminish ed. The blouse open over a front re mains a popular design , and a charming example of this is in the next picture. It was yellow corded taffeta , the rovers turning back from the front with facing of white satin. The front was a pretty bit of white net with applied figures of yellow satin , all laid over white satin. Such a bodice may be worn with a black broadcloth skirt , of fashionable design , or the skirt may be of cloth to match the taffeta , the resulting costume being a charming complete dress for reception or home wear. The very simple collar , just folded satin to match the taffeta , coulo be varied prettily by a collar and sash to match the turquoise velvet. Though the round waist and blouse front bodice of the kind just described seems likely to remain in favor a long time yet , and certainly is not a bit out of fashion now , the little jacket bodice is newer. Beautiful ones are made offig - A STYT/E TIIAT uroil taffeta , n light ground sprinkled . . .L - . . : . lu.MtJtuls I.-1'Ing .1 favorite pat tern iu the silk. Often the jtickets are cut very short in front , with suggestion of the zouave curve , or the fronts may be longer than the rest and hang down in panel fashion to the knees. 'Almost al ways the fronts are open , or turn hack to show waistcoat or underbodice. Usu ally the cut about the chest is modified to show the yoke. A very pretty jacket of gray taffeta figured with tiny scarlet lines was sketched for the left hand model of the next picture. It was made over .1 blue tucked muslin front , the collar of taffeta being prettily lengthened into yoke shape. At the shoulders was drapery of the sill : over muslin sleeves , and it r onii/l--hi'il drapery there very ingeniously without breaking the rule for simple shoulde/ finish. The skirt intended to be worn with this bodice was gray broadcloth , and if it didn't have its own broadcloth bodice then its owner had missed a good chance for making her money go as far as it might. Coat and skirt costumes appeared first on the street , and that fact makes some NJAVII : TYPES OP FAXCY BODICES. women feel that they art fit only for that use. True , they are especially well suited to the promenade , but they are being worn indoors , too. A novel one is shown beside the jacket bodice just described. It was violet silk , the coat open over a tucked front of purple taffeta. Belt , bindings and coat strap were in a velvet darker than the violet of the silk. The skirt matched the coat. Costumes made of several shades of violet , or of blended violets and blues , are greatly in favor , and it can be said of them that when the biending is accomplibhed tastefully , every observer will be bound to give the wearer much credit for her judgment in colors. There are fine chances for econoinv in cloth skirts suited for wear not only with their own cloth bodice , but also with fancy bodices , but she who is able to have more than one cloth dress will want one of them to defy suspicion of economic de vising. Such a one , in gray vicuna cloth , is at the left hand in the pictured group. Its bib-apron overdress was especially graceful , and the tiny belt hardly inter fered with the princess effect of the rest. The embroidery was hand work , some of the "natural color' ' work so fashionable , and the pattern included pansies , with green leaves and brown stems. The cord ed .silk yoke was lettuce green. With this was carried a velvet and chiffon muff of violet , with a great hunch of orchids pin ned at the top. Orchids of violet gray j and pink made a very dainty touch , which some women would insist calls for a dain ty bit of a headdress. But most women delight in hats , and the one with this cos tume was green felt , trimmed with or chids. The combination of colors , gray , pansy shades- , and lettuce green , the or chids adding a pinkish tone , was remark ably fine. In tlie matter of harmony be tween colors our domestic dressmakers are excelled by none. It is when they come to color contrasts that the import ed gowns and hats stand out finely. All the economical devising that cruel necessity could mother fails to do much when opposed to the present extravagant 1 fancies in embroidery and applique work. I It is .not so much that this style of ornamentation - j mentation is becoming more and more im portant , but that it has irrowu so elab orate in the finer kinds. Beautiful scrolls are cut out of net , the net is set over silk , outlining is done by hand embroidery on the net , and here and there emphasis is given to the design by velvet applied on the net. This sort of thing costs a lot , and. even when a woman is able to do it her self , takes so much time that the fancy would be likely to be passed before she could finish her task. The elaborately embroidered gown of this picture was green cloth , its applique work bt-ing wreaths of gray net set over i-i > : ct.vk -green silk. Blue velvet centers empha sized the flowers. Such scroll work is buttonhole stitched to the goods with silk , and the gown is usually lined with silk to match that put under the scrolling , to sug gest that the cloth is cut away.
