yoman's Morning Jacket.

Tasteful morning jackets are essen
tial to every woman's comfort and be-
come an economy. inasmuch as they
take the place of waists that can be re-
served for the latter part Of the day.
The pretty May Manton model shown
in the large drawing is well suited to
dimity, lawn, batiste and all the famil-
lar washable fabrics, but in the origin
al is made of old blue challie dotted
ing with black corticelli silk, and mar
row ribbon frills. Closing the front
and holding the cuffs are carved gold
buttons with tracing Of black, and at
the waist is black lOuisine ribbon
bowed at the centre front.
The jacket is simplicity itself. The
fronts are gathered at the neck and
fall in soft folds that are held by the
ribbon belt. The back is plain across
the shoulders but drawn down in gath
ers at the waist line that are arranged
in a succession of shirrs Connecting
the two are under-arm cores, that rem
der the jacket shapely and trim at the
same time that it is loose. The neck
is finished with turnover collar and
over the shoulders falls a deep round
one that gives becoming cape effect,
but which can be omitted when the
jacket is preferred plain.
To cut this jacket in the medium size
three and three-eighth yards Of mate
rial twenty-seven inches wide, three
yards thirty-two inches wide. or two
and one-half yards forty-four inches
wide will be required.

pretty May Manton model shown is
made of white Persian lawn, with a
finish OF beading run with black velvet
ribbon. and is unlined, but silk and
wool fabrics are more satisfactory
made over the fitted foundation.
The lining is snugly fitted and closes
with the waist at the centre back. The
front of the waist proper is tucked at
the upper portion to give triple point
ed yoke effect, and again at the waist
to simulate pointed girdle, but the
backs are tucked for their entire length
to give tapering effect. The sleeves
are entirely novel and in the fashion
able elbow length, but can be made
long and the deep cuffs added when
preferred. The upper portions gre be-
comingly full and soft puffs are formed
at the elbows, but between the two the
sleeves are tucked to give close fit.
The neck as shown is collarless, but the
stock can be added when desired

THE NORTHAMPTON,
The American Mountain Lion the Cham.
pion Rough Tumble Fighter.

The American Mountain Lion the Cham.
pion Kough-and- Tumble Fighter.
From a story in ST. Nicholas we
clip this description of the old-time
mountain lion:
There was time when the American
mountain lion was one of the most for
midable animals in the world. The cat
is the masterpiece of nature; and the
nountain lion was one of the most ter
ribly armed and powerful of the cat
family. 1t was a compact mass of
hard and tough muscle and gristle,
with bones of iron, strong jaws, sharp
teeth, and claws like steel penknife
blades. 1t was prodigiously strong,
1.-the, and quick, covered with a mail
coat of loose skin that was as tough
as leather. 1t had the temper of a
demon, and was insatiably blcodthirs-
ty. Withal, it had the proverbial nine
lives of the cat tribe.
Against such an animal it was hope
less to match dogs. 1t was said, in
The school books of 40 years ago, that
three British mastiffs can pull down
full grown Asiatic lion Perhaps
they could; but they would have been
sorry if they had tackled full grown
American mountain lion of that time.
He was not to be pulled down" by
anything; and if he had been pulled
Gown" that was exactly the position
in which he fought best. With his
back protected by the earth, and all
four fearfully armed paws flying free,
aided by his terrible teeth, and body
so strong that it could not be held
in any position-well. when he was
down" was the time that he was most
up"
He once was found in all the Rocky
mountain regions, from the jaguar-
haunted tropical forests of the extreme
south to the home of the northern
winter blizzard; but he attained his
greatest size and ferocity on the sub
tropical plateau of northern Mexico,
! New Mexico and Arizona.
These animals are no longer what
they were. The tourist or hunter of
today cannot hope to find any of the
! old time power or ferocity.

New Rose Sow.

Later and larger than the already fa'
vored rose bow for the hair is the new
rose bow which is equally stunning at
the corsage or on hat. Indeed, three
of these bows are displayed on some
hats. Most of us, however, would find
single one would give more chic.
Tightly looped satiny ribbon in very
pale pink forms the centre, while the
outer, looser petals are of more deeply
shaded ribbon. This gorgeous rose is
the size of corsage head, and may be
had in any color.

Rarity of Tin Deposits.

1t is curious fact that the known
deposits of tin in the world are far
less extensive in area than those of
gold. Specifically there are about
1872 square miles yielding workable
geld deposits to every square mile
containing commercially available tin
deposits. According to DR.. Wahl, in
the Journal of the Franklin Institute.
there is scarcely country in the
world in which gold might not be
profitably obtained, or from which it
has not been obtained in the past, but
there are at the present time probably
not more than a dozen districts in
the world where tin is being mined.
The famous tin deposits of Cornwall
are about exhausted, and the same is
true of the deposits of Bohemia, Tus-
cany Southern Spain and the Pyra-
nees. In all the vast area of Asia
there are but two workable districts
one in China and the other in the
Straits Settlement and adjacent prin-
cipalities, from the latter of which by
far the largest quantity of metal has
been obtained in recent years. Africa
has no known deposits and but little
is produced in South America. Sever.
al deposits have been discovered in
the United States, but not in profitable
quantities. Australia and New Zea-
land contain the most promising new
deposits. though at present they only
produce about one-tenth that cf the
Straits.

To Tell The Ama nf IErns

The following method of determin
ing the age of eggs is practised in the
markets of Paris: about six ounces
of common cooking salt is put into a
large glass, which is then filled with
water. When the salt is in solution
an egg is dropped into the glass. If
the egg is only one day old it sinks i'm
mediately to the bottom; if any older
it does not reach the bottom of the
glass. If three days old it sinks only
just below the surface. From five
days upwards it floats; the older it is
the more it protrudes out of the wa

Foliage Hats.

Very distinguished and usually pretty
is the dress toque composed of foliage,
or having a wreath of foliage for its
finishing touch. White velvet foliage
is very dressy, making lovely crown
for white dress or one of dark OF
black velvet, or even handsome dark
cloth costume. With green foliage a
toque takes on more general usefulness
as it does also when the leaves are the
lovely dead browns with their innum'
erable though shaded lights of ashes
and gold and bronze.

Eraid Loops and Rings.

\ very handsome new silk, loosely
woven and heavy looking braid trims
many OF the tailor rigs effectively. In
addition TO it's richness it curves into
graceful forms. An example in navy
broadcloth shows three rows of black
braid as heading to the fiared founce.
These end at the narrow front gore in a
loop, each being pulled through black
silk ring Three rows are round the
shoulders in Carrick cape effect, ending
each side the front in loops and rings.
