In a recent issue of the journal of
the British Society of Arts some stril1-
ing examples of the effect of the use
of science in German factories are
given. In 1910 $4,000 tons of beet
root were crushed, from which s.,
900 tons of raw sugar were produced
about 1-2 per cent. In 1860 1,5O0,-
900 tons were treated, and produced
5000 tons of sugars per cent
Last year 12,000,00 tons were crush
ed and yielded 100000 tons of raw
sugar-13 per cent. This increase Of
quantity, as well as percentage of
product is due entirely to scientific
treatment. The production of dry
colors, chemicals and dyes In Ger
many shows a corresponding increase
in production and dividend-pAying ca.
paclty. which is due to the constant
maintenance of laboratories or trained
scientists, whose only purpose is to
improve and cheaper processes.

Cut in Mannish Fashion
Unreasonable Peprosch of Garments ofNew
Womsn-How Her Sisters In Many Lands
Copy Their Brothers, Clothes,

One OF the pet reproaches made
against ths new woman is that in her
unseem!y longing to stand upon the
same footing as her aforetime lord
and master she invented the fashion
of wearing garments OF a mannish
cut.
This is most unjust, and she may
readily be proved guiltless of the
charge by a trifing investigation OF
the fashions OF ancient times and of
conservative countries where the poor
things are as unemancipated as pos
sible, as their foremothers of a thou.
sand years ago.
The Chinese lady. as every traveller
testiies, is one of the most modest.
retiring and conventional of creatures,
yet she wears clothes almost exactly
like those of her husband and broth
ers Indeed, in China trousers are
considered much more proper as femi-
nine garments than skirts.
The Turkish womans dress is iden-
tical with that of the husband, who
keeps her so carefully shut away from
all new-fangled notions, and the Es-
Qumau woman clothes her little fat
legs in tight sealskin breeches fin-
ished off with smart fur-topped boots

The Endowment of Humor.

1t may be said of humor. as Mark
Twain in conversation once said ol
bacon, that it would improve the flavor
Of an angel. Those who enjoy humoi
certainly enjoy it very much; indeed
it would not be strange if half the
world should consider the extravagant
praise of humor by the other half as
in very poor taste, since it is acknowl
edged by him who laughs, as by him
who refrains, that the lack of this
quality of mind Tor shall we say OF
mind and body) may consist with
the most admirable qualities of charac
ter, says the Century. There is a sec
ond count in the Indictment; that
praise of humor implies in the praisel
the conceit of possessing it, However
as no one wanting in humor ever
raised it, the latter consideration
ay be neglected.
