THE CLIMATE OF THE ARcrics.
Lord Kelvin's Theory ms To tho Changes 1t
Has Undergone.


Has Undergone.
The reissue of Lord Kclvin's address
on geology and general physics revivcs
n discussion OF the probable cause OF
the warm climate once experienced In
the arctic regions. That such warm
climate did prevail at one time In those
regions is beyond doubt; for not only
are remains of forest trees found with
In Is degrees OF the north pole, with
every evidence of their having grown
there, but the return of the arctic ex-
petition Of 1879 brought home proof Of
a very warm climate, probably rs
warm MS In the tropics, within de-
grees of the north pole. says the Mime
apolis Tribune. The explanation of this
condition which Lord Kelvin suggests
Is this:
Tho Arctic ocean Is land.locked sea
and the effect OF the surrounding coasts
is to hem the Ice In and prevent free
oceanic circulation. while the land It.
self serves TO receive and accumulate
snow whcrewiih TO load the ncighbor.
Ing sea with thin layer OF surfaced
ice. But II the land was lowered 1000
feet tho sea would be open but for II
few islands, and the water deep enough
for plenty OF warm currents to flow
In sufficient to clear the Ice away and
keep It clear. Even now the Ice seems
TO be only five feet thick, evidently
melting away underneath.
Having regard 10 all the dcfcnscs- .
the heat capacity OF moist nir. the for

TAHOE GOWN WITH DOUBLE sKIRr

TAILOR GOWN WITH DOUBLE SKIRT.
 several aspects-open and displaying n natty waistcoat, closed to the waist or partly open to show the necktie only.
 A more elaborate affair is the tailor gown that borrows some features from the dressmaker's gowns-as, for instance, the double skirt. An illustration of this latter style was recently seen. The col ors used were bright tint of russet green faced cloth for the bodice and up per skirt, while the lower skirt, revers and plastron of bodice were adapted in pale biscuit color cloth, richly embroid- cred in iridescent cords. These blend most charmingly with the tint of the russet cloth, and the bodice was fastened by buttons of iridescent pearl inlaid with bronze. The bonnet worn with this dressy costume was shaped as a Nurem- berg cap of russet cloth, bordered with pale biscuit color and fastened at the back by a flat bow of green velvet with a buckle of iridescent pearl. This cos tune was sufficiently elaborate for an afternoon reception.
 Tailors make a point of carrying out details of a costume perfectly, even when the gown is very simple. For ex- ample, in plain black hopsacking, serge or cheviot dresses, made with frock coat and faring skirt. they furnish also & house waist of silk, usually of some shot taffeta, with hair stripes or dashes, and this pretty silk reappears as the lin ing of the coat and skirt.

 While royalty abroad and the Four Hundred at home continue to smile per sistently upon the tailor made gown, it's popularity with the multitude is assured. There is no denying that the natty but simple tailor costumes afford a pleasing contrast to the exaggerated fashions so often seen in what is known as the dress makers gowns.
 For tailor gowns few new things are shown, and all the fabrics of last year reappear-a welcome fact to those who must economize. Small irregular checks come in very pretty mixtures of green, with ecru and some terra cotta threads, or in blue, with slate gray, and in love- ly blending of two shades of green with two of violet-one light, the other very dark. These are $l.50 q yard and are 90 inches wide. Black and white, brown and white, and dark green and white checks are in good style.
