The Crushed Rosette.

A new way of trimming hat of me
dium size is to apply in the middle a
crushed" rosctte of very wide satin
ribbon. The ribbon is almost as wide
as II It had been meant for a sash. The
ribbon is worked into a giant rosette
and slightly flattened to give it a
crushed aspect. You may wonder why
crushed" rosette should be preferred
to an uncrushed one. But the secret
is that in the effort to reduce the
ASPECT OF autumn millinery to broad
low hatness it stands to reason that
hat decorations must be crushed IN
suite.

The Path OF the Treacherous Is Rug
ged," 1t Says.
Americans have wasted no time in
getting their revised edition of t0
Bible upon the market, Immediately
following the expiry of the fourteen
years in which they were pledged not
to publish. We have not yet had an
edition in England, but many are on
the way. Some extracts of the new
version have come over by cable, and
not all will find unequivocal approval
here. The way of the transgressor
is hard" has passed into a proverb of
everyday use; we shall scarcely recog-
nize the Americanized variation. The
path of the treachereous is rugged -
Many of the alterations undoubtedly
make for greater clecrness and lucid
ity, but after all, do we want a Bible
phrased in the idiom of today? There
is no clamoring for a twentieth CEN
tury version of The Faerie Queen, "
but Spencer is still an undiminished
JOY to reading men and women. The
old worldness of the Bible is one OF
its greatest charms Its English is
held up as a pattern to writer's. But
America must have a twentieth cen
tury Bible in twentieth century die
tion. 1t is to be hoped that the ex-
ample of the professors will not be
emulated by less scholarly men. 1t
will be interesting to note how the
new edition sells. The old Bible still
sells ten to one better than that pub
lished last in England.-London Black

him. This friend begged the ameer.

Physical Growth OF the Japanese.


The increase of stature among the
japanese is very perceptible; and the
substitution of tepid and even cold wat
er for the hot baths among many OF
the people is responsible for an in
creasing horidity IF the complexion.
Before the advent of military discip-
line on European models the japanese
were notable as the smallest-necked
race in the world, a firm of London
collar makers with a large trade to
Japan asserting that l3 inches was the
normal circumference of full-grown
Japanesc's throat. In little over &c
years, owing to more athletic develop
ment. the average has risen an inch
and a half To athletic development
should also be added greater avoirdu-
pois. inasmuch as more generous dict
and abstention from parboiling are
bringing their reward in an accumula-

knows it, but their last point of con-
troyersy is calculated to astonish the

at the letter "A" One would hardly
expect the subject to rouse lively pas
sions, but it appears that the govern

this dictionary. II is not very strange

time consumed is rather excessive. A

state some G4,0O0 francs year. But if
one calculates. at the rate they are 20

finish the work, the deputy argues that

The man. you see, holds the glass in
