November Bridal showers.

A parcel shower would be something
little different for your friend who
is to be a November bride Ask each
guest to bring her gift in a parcel
daintily wrapped and tied with rib
bon. Then put number on each par
eel and give numbered lists. Let each
guest register her guess as to what a
parcel contains opposite it's number.
There is much fun in comparing lists
after the bride-elect has opened the
parcels. Or, you might give a hand
kerchief shower for both bride and
groom elect, having it in the evening
and following it by dancing. Dress
two dolls with the handkerchiefs, and
have the men present the handker-
chiefs they have brought to the groom
elect and the girls present those they
bring TO the bride-elect Chicago

why Is the Sky Blue /?

Why is the sky blue? Tyndall an
sWered a generation ago, Because
there is a predominance of the small
er waves of light, which are blue. re-
Aected from the minute corpuscles in
the atmosphere" The air is not blue;
otherwise pure white light would not
come as it does through a blue medi-
UNI. In his graphic style Tyndall OBJ
served: "A broad cliff reflects the At
lantic roller as easily as the ripple
produced by the seabird's wing" So
cloud reflects all rays, and looks
white; it's corpuscles of vapor are large
enough to throw back light waves of
all sizes. But in the upper regions of
the air there predominant infinite num-
berS of particles so small that they
do not throw back the larger red, yell
low and green waves, but only the
smaller that are blue; and thus blue is
the predominant though not the eXclu-
sive color of the sky. AT the annual
congress of the Swiss Society of Nat
ural Sciences, M. Spring has called
this accepted theory in question. He
reports that he has experimental with
luminous rays under almost all con-
ceivable conditions, injecting them into
agitated solutions, but although he
could obtain red, yellow, violet and the
rest, under no conditions could he OBJ
tain blue until, by the aid of electric
ity, he secured a pure atmosphere, In
which blue was sclearly discernible.'
Hence, M. Spring comes to the con-
clusion, whatever it may mean, that

Since the beginning of the nine
teenth century the Russian govern
ment has been exceedingly cautious in
its relations with China, realizing
what danger would arise If the Chi
nese should adopt the western mill
tary system. That most conservative
paper, Grashdanin, published the opin-
ion Of Russian general who has re-
turned from the latest China campaign,
which strikingly confirms the old
traditions. "If we would avoid .the
greatest disaster in the far east he
says. I'VE should by all means and
with all our strength and will gain the
confidence and love Of China" At the
same time reports from the Amur
province tell of Russla's preparations
for increasing its military forces on
