JeWeLS and The Weather.


The up-to-date girl no longer wears
her rings to match Her costumes, but to
match the weather.
During the hot summer she discarded
her diamonds and rubies for topazes
moonstones. and turquoises. SIZE de-
clared the more ardent stones made her
feel warmer than the weather.
With the nippy fall days she puts on
her emeralds and sapphires. On "a bright
sunny day she wears pearls, but never
on a gloomy day. for she SAYS pearls
are nothing bat tears anyway. and the
combination OF pearls and clouds would
be- too depressing 10 endure.
On rainy days she wears Opals because
they promise Brightness and clear days

mOnds she saves for winter wear.
The diamond is a good cold weather

cause % Is constantly giving out flashes
of brilliant color. Amethysts are all
ways suggestive of thick clothes, and
should be worn just as summer is

HONE.. ITS PROBLEMS AND INTERESTS

Brown in the Lead, With Gray and
Green Seconds.

The horse show established the vogue
Of brown beyond all question. Whole
sale dealers say that brown fabrics are
in such great demand that deliveries
from factories on this side OF tie water
as we'll as Europe are extraordinarily
slow. The dyers are simply overwhelm-
ed with orders. A great deal of discrimi-
nation should be used in buying brown

as rule, especially taffeta and the
heavy silks. Brown velvet. on the other
hand, is delightful. As a rule, the soft,
pliable fabrics are good in brown, and
these fabrics are. of course. extremely
fashionable this season. At the horse
show one saw innumerabIe afternoon
gowns OF cashmere. crepe de chine, drap
d'ste, and colienne. number OF them
in soft brown shades. one well known
woman OF fashion appeared in several
brown gowns, wearing with them very
large fluffy stoles Of brown marab0ut
or ostrich.
Other good colors are green. gray. and
violet. With all the talk about the
fashionableness of red and the rose
tones these cOlors were notably absent
from the horse show. One sees them, 10
De sure, but they are always conspicu-
Gus because so rarely worn They are
quite suitable, however, for young girls,
10 whom they are most becoming
'lai1s and checks are obviously not as
fashionable as they have been They
ave not gone out altogether, but are
plainly less popular than plain fabrics.
Evening gowns are mostly white. al
though the pale tones of maize, mauve,
heliotrOpe, and pale blue and pink were
represented. 1t was surprising how lit
tie difference there was between day and
evening fabrics. Velvet and brOadclOth
were worn day and evening. while crepe
de chine walking gowns WCH as com
mon as elaborate creations OF the same
material worn at night. The difference
lay In the color and design.

ROYAL RULERS OF JAPAN.
Present ReiRninK House Dates Back
SIX Centuries Before Opening
of Christian Era.

His majesty, Mutsuhito. or emperor,
and Edward VII. king of Great Brit
ain. are the two ideal prototypes OF the
constitutional sovereign. Seated firm
ly as they are in the hearts of their
subjects. who should be surprised at
their ever-growing glory and popular
ity?
The mikado Ia of the long and I'M
broken line OF 10 ancestors who sat
before him on the throne. which was
set up COO years before the Christian
era. says Niroku Shinpo Just think
OF it! The oldest of the royal families
in Europe is that of Capet, which.
however, is comparatively young. as it
dates no further back than the ninth
century. And 1t remains now in the
Partisan society as rare relic of
hygone royal family. The Savoy. the
Brunswick. the Baden, and so forth.
go hack only to the eleventh century.
But our imperial line. as already men.
toned. started long before the battle
2f Marathon was recorded, long be.
fore the songs of Homer we're recited.
Since then no foreign conqueror ever
set foot on the soil of Japan.

PHONE GIRL SAYS "o."
No, she's Not Surprised, But Ia Draw
ing Nearer to NRught-"ouxht"
Crates ON Sensitive Ears.

The telephone girl is progressive
For years and years in repeating a num-
Der which had zero included she would
always call it ought" For instance, IL
a subscriber called for twenty four
thirty" the telephone girl would repeat:
Two-three-four-ought" When some
subscriber who had little feeling Of
compassion for the kings English,
which was being so cruelty murdered
right before his ears, would gently OBJ
ject and say: 'Two-four-three-n aught,"
the girl would again repeat. ought"
and tell the subscriber to look in the
dictionary"
But the world moves, says the New
York Herald. The "naught" is com
mencing to be realized in the most ex-
elusive telephone circles. 1t could not
be expected that the telephone girl
would surrender all at once She has
fought for that Ought" too long to drop
1t Immediately, and thus confess that
she had been wrong.
SO, while she has dropped the Ought, :"
she has taken up 20" instead. So now
she repeats 2340 in this manner, two
three-four-O."
1t is a splendid victory for English un-
defiled. Optimists can now see dawning
that glad day when the telephone girl
WI say "naught" right out loud.

RADIUM IN MEDICINE.
Expected 90 Work Marvellous Results
I'm the Treatment of Canser
and blindness.

The AngloIndian Review sum.
marizes an interesting account OF the
possible future applications of radi.
UNI. The area where success is prac.
ticaily assured is at present not very
large. hut in the medical field II is al
ready fairly extensive. In the work
ing OF X'rays and in the marvellous re-
suits achieved In the treatment of can
Ger and blindness we have every hone
for great and universally beneftjng
results. In its Industrial application
we are somewhat restricted by the
extremely limited supply OF radium
available. but 1t is stated that small
fraction of an ounce. properly EN-.
ployed. would probably provide good
light sufficient for several rooms. and
would not require renewal during the
present century. It has been calcu.
lated that the energy stored up in one
gramme OF radium is sufficient to
raise 500 tons weight mile high. An
ounce would. therefore. suffice to drive
a 5O-horsepower motor car at the rate
OF 80 miles an hour round the world.
