A Fall Outing Costume.

An ultra-smart outing costume for

rough quality of goods being chosen
in preference to the smoother finish.
The skirt is perfectly plain in front,
fits exquisitely over the hips, and falls
in an inverted box pleat behind. The
jacket is tight-ftting. the front turn
ing back in small revers faced with
white watered silk. Silver fall but
tons, seven on each side, are placed on

in the height of present styles. The
very attractive one, designed by May
MantOn and illustrated in the large
drawing, is shown in white India silk,
with trimming of Valenciennes lace
and is stitched with corticelli silk,
but the design is equally well suited
to cotton, linen and wooden materials,

out the fitted lining.
The waist consists of the front and
back of the fitted foundation, which
can be faced to form the yoke or from
which the yoke can be cut, the front

The front is bloused slightly but the
backs are drawn down snugly on the
waist line. The trimming is applied
ON indicated lines and gives the fash

bertha outlines the yoke. The sleeves
are the pointed ones of the season,
tucked to be snug above the elbows
and full below.

WHAT A KNOCKOUT BLOW DOES
Medical Explanation OF the Jolt on
the Point of the Jaw.

the Point of the Jaw.
Inasmuch as all boxing contests
which terminate speedily are, as a
rule ended by this character of coup
de grace. the physiology of it Is Of
great interest. A mar struck with
any degree of force upon the mental
area of the jaw, although he may be
in perfect physical condition, instant
ly collapses and falls to the ground.
The attitude assumed in recovery,
which may be instantaneous or de-
layed some minutes, is most charac-
teristic. He squirms about, raises his
head and rolls his eyes in an at
Tempt to locate himself. He tries to
get on his side and elbow. He en-
deavors to rise upon his hands and
knees. II he regains his feet, he
staggers like a drunken man and
should he proceed to reopen HOSTILE
ties, he is usually promptly put out"
by his adversary. The blow is prac-
tically never fatal. the hearts action
Is never undully accelerated, the
pulse and respiration are normal: the
pupils are normal; there is no head,
ache, no sweats, no cold extremeties,
no pallor-none of the ordinary signs
of shock or conclusion.
James G. D%uncanson British Medi.
cal Journal, April A, 1909 believes
the condition to be due entirely to a
shaking up Of the endolymph in the
semicircular canals. When the blow
Is administered there is a violent over.
twisting of the head, which is held
In Its anteposterior position by mus
cles which, compared with those in
ficting the blow, are small and puny.
The result is that the head flies
around with a jerk and the fluid In
the canals is subjected to a greater
disturbance than by any other trauma.
There is little reason to doubt that
this is the interesting pathology of
the well-known but little understood
coup de grace.-Medical News.

FACES OF MEN AND WOMEN.
Are the Former More Likely to Show De
fects Than the Latter?

Are the Former More Likely to Show De-
fects Than the Latter?
After they had held down a bench on
Riverside Drive for an hour, during
which time 500 people had passed, one
Of them wound up his disconnected
comments with this:
|, Have you ever noticed how few
women you see with any deformity in
their faces? You may watch the crowd
in any street and every tenth man will
have a broken nose, or a disfigured
mouth, or deformed chin. or some mark
which indicates a misfortune. But not
one woman in fifty is so marked.
You see ugly women, women with
telltale lines in their faces, and plenty
of good-looking women, but, as I say,
not one in fifty-I have made the count
frequently and that is the average
has a seal or an abnormal mark on her
face"
Il asked a doctor about it. and his
explanation was that women being out
of doors less than men, are more pro-
tected from accidents. But that is not
satisfactory if you study the PROPOSE
ton.
You may stand at the Manhattan
end of the Brooklyn Bridge in the rush
hour, as l have done, and take 100
women and then take the first twenty
men afterward that pass along, men
and women who you know come and
go to work daily, and you will find
more men marked in the face than you
will find women. / am not talking
about women who go shopping, but
women who work in stores and shops.
Il used to be a night worker, and
went home on the early morning trains
which carry an army Of night workers
of both sexes-the women in such cases
being from the bakeshops and cafes
and places where women are as much
in danger as men, and rarely did I ever
see a woman whose face was marred
by any natural deformity, or by any
thing that would indicate an accident.
''The only conclusion / ever reached
was that ome are more careful Of
their faces than men, but that applies
only to accidents. How about those
who have been favored from birth?
Why are they, proportionately, more
fortunate than men?"-New York Sun.

styles in Winter Millinery.

Lovely petunia and fuchsia mauves
and magentas are promised in winter
millinery. These tints are beautiful
and highly decorative, but not every
one can wear them. The decided
blonde, alike with the decided brun-
cite. has difficulty in assimilating them,
and they seem to be especially planned
for the accommodation of the natural
toned woman. She Of the medium dark
brown hair, medium skin and unob-
trusive brown eyes generally carries
them off successfully; therefore, as
this style of woman is in the majority,
may look for a fuchsia and petunia
cult.

day by those with whom he came in
contact through his official POSITION.

What ship in the world a boast

Just been sold to be broken up? She
was registered at the port of Genoa

She was built In Genoa in 154S, and
her last voyage has not long been

1t is true she was 205 days on one
voyage from Baltimore to Rio dc
Janeiro, but what is that to a ship
which has weathered such countless
storms and tornadoes in all parts OF
the world?
The sturdy old vessel has been en-
gagged in the carrying trade between
Spain and the United States. OF course
she has been repaired frequently dur

but still her original style has beer

are to be attached to firm hooks
stitched to the travelling hat. This is
u convenience in one way, because it
makes you independent of veil pins

made shows that the average number
of children in the white native family

was more than six: in 1880 it had

than four; in 1872 to less than three; in

Mourning Gowns.

First mourning is, or should be, of
sombre black. Conservative people
do not believe even in crepe, which
has a lustre, but choose the old-fash-
Toned bombazine, Henrietta cloth, or
any material which is absolutely lus-.
treless. The fashion of the gown, il
intended for the house, must be as
simple as possible, the only trimming
being bias bands of the material. For
street wear dull-faced cloth is worn,
the only trimming on the skirt being
bands Of the material, or better still,
no trimming being used. A medium
length coat even without facings of
silk, a bonnet with long veil, worn. as
a rule, back from the face, and a small
veil edged with crepe and made of
thin net over the face, are the con-
ventional costume. For widows the
transparent cuffs and collars of white
are permissible, and are usually much
more becoming than all black.
Crepe-trimmed gowns for house or
street or entire gowns Of crepe, are
exceedingly smart, and are often seen.
