REWITCHING
SPRING STYLES.

NEW YORK, March 10.-The early
spring openings decide that costume
waists and tea jackets still hold their
own as firmly as ever, and as this is
so I cannot do better than to describe
two models 1 saw the other day.

mauve violets and family blurred
green leaves. The back was tight

its silken lining, and box-pleated The
fronts hung loosely, straight from the

looked like a sarcenet-at any rate. it

front. A long narrow buckle of cut
steel kept in place a bow of very fine
creamy lace. The sleeves were
Georgian in shape, set in at the Shout
ders with scarcely a suspicion of full
ness, and finished-they scarcely
reached to the elbows-with a double
frill of the same lace as the bow at the
throat, above which was a band of
black ribbon velvet. The whole gar
ment was lined with pale mauve silk,
and it was quite smart enough, in my
opinion. for little dinner, or even for
theater wear.
This jacket, too. could easily be
copied in other colors than those of
mauve and yellow. For instance,

NEW PHYs1coLoGIcAL IDEA.

I
 Ithaca, N. Y., Oct. 27.-Professor D. B. Kitchener of the physiological de- partment of Cornell to-day announced that new physiological idea had been introduced in the laboratories at Cornell The relation between "inten- sity of simulty'' and intensity of sub- stance" in the sense of smell has been demonstrated to be one-third to one- fourth The difference between these opponents is one-twelfth. Thus it is shown that the sense of smell appre- ciates eleven-twelfths of the intensity of the substance applied. This is new feature of 'Weber's law" of which hn- til the experiments at Cornell were completed nothing definite was known. To determine this, experiments have been carried on at Cornell for three years.
