Crusoe's Island

In writing Robinson Crusoe, Defoe,
with a story-teller's license. took many
liberties with the original narrative.
One Of these changes has been to tell
us that Crusoe's island was situated on
the east coast Of South America. near
the mouth Of the Orinoco river. There
can be no doubt. however. that the island
Of Juan Fernandez. with its cave and
its lookout. was the island which Defoe
has described; nor that the adventures

AIRsHIP RACES FOR PRIZES.
Programme of Aerial Contests for the
Worlds Fair Season at
st. Louis.

With the issuance of an announce
ment to prospective airship contestants |
of changes in the rules. the arrange
ments for the aeronautic tournament.
which is expected to be the most spec
tacular feature of the worlds fair, were
virtually completed. says the New York
Telegraph.
The changes announced are as fol-
lows:
The minimum speed required in the
race for the grand price of 100000 is
1884 miles an hour. instead of 20 miles.
Formal entries will be received until
June 1, instead of closing May 1.
The prize for the highest altitude
attained is withdrawn, because of the
great danger in such contests without
! adequate motive.
There will be only eight races for
spherical balloons, instead of ten, and
they will begin the first Monday in
June There will be no races in May.
Prizes of cups, medals and other tro-
phies are offered for amateur balloon
races to be held the second and fourth
Mondays in September.
Up to date "a entries in the contests
have been filed. Under agreement with
the contestants their names are with
held by the transportation exhibits de-
partment having the races in charge.
OF the number one is St. Louisan and
27 others are residents of the United
States. Only six foreign contestants
have thus far entered. M. Santos-Du-
mont and nj. Lebaudy are among pros
pective contestants who have visited
the city.
The competitive flights will take
place between June and September 30

THE UNEXPECTED HAPPENED
Too Careful Wife cDid Nicely" But
There Was Some of 1t to
Be Undone.

Everything is ready, My trunk is
packed, sent to the station and is

That's good management, that is.
This was the conversation between
certain west end man and his wife one
afternoon recently, relates the Albany
Journal. The wife was about to go on
western trip and expected to leave on
the 11:4O train that night for Buffalo.
Her husband had secured a pass for her,
and she was happy. At the dinner table
the question of readiness for the trip
again became the topic of discussion.
Have you your money and pass all
right?' inquired the husband.
'Oh, yes" answered the wife, fumb-
ling in her pocketbook. II placed it in
this compartment. Why, what has be
come of it? My goodness, it isn't here!"
And she turned pale with apprehension,
Whatever did l do with it?"
Look in your bureau drawers" sug-
gested the husband.
This was done, and every possible
hiding place was searched. but without

After some little difficulty he opened tn

LATEST CORSET FxINos,
Big Bows and wadded Hearts Are
Among the Popular Dec
orations.

The new corset decorations are as
much a necessity as an adornment to
corsets. The full bodice fronts and
yoke effects make it imperative that
there be an even, full line across the
front of the bodice from shoulder to
shoulder, says the Washington Star.
One of the CONNECTIONS made to achieve
this result is band of lace, run through
the top with ribbon fastened inside the
shoulder with ribbon bows, to which are
gathered two or three rufles of lace OF
graduated widths, one falling over the
other.
Another band effect is covered with a
deep. quilted ruching of bobbinet- Still
another has full quilting of pinked
taffeta and a similar one is made OF
rufies of ribbon with or without big
bow in the middle.
More popular than these are the
padded bows A strip of figured, dotted
or plain satin OF silk is cut to reach from
shoulder to shoulder. This is lined with
cotton wadding, folded over and seweS
| together on the edge. 1t is then teC
tightly across the middle with larg

material Is plain, it is decorated witt
hGnd-painting or hand-embroidery OF

ribbon ends and loops.
White. pale blue and pink are fayorit

ON CLEANING THE TEETH.
The Tooth Brush Is Used Too Much
Not Too Little, Says
Dentist.

the Times, has made name for him.
self in New York, Now, / would like
to see the set of teeth that could hold
out long against such treatment. II
would rub the enamel off in short time.
"One-third the amount of cleaning
recommended is what one really needs.
The use of tooth brush once day for
three minutes is sufficient. Then there
can be used with that in the evening
the silk floss which is so good for taking
from between the teeth anything that
may have lodged there.
Even in using a tooth brush once a
day, it is better not to rub it directly
across the surface of the teeth, but to
slant it, holding the point down so that
It cleans the spaces between the teeth
as well as the front of the teeth and re-
moves the full force of the contact from
the teeth. have had many patients who
have literally rubbed the enamel from
their teeth by the excessive use of a
| brush.
"The. average American uses brush
too much and not too little. In addi-
tion to being careful with the brush, il
is also important 10 see that the bristles
are soft and not hard Tooth powder
should be used only once a day.
Many of my patients nowadays use
the pointed orange sticks for the teeth
They are very good to keep them clear
and serve in q way the purpose of botf
the brush and the stick. They are otter
used to put on tooth powder and keel
the teeth in excellent condition"
The eommonest disease to which tn,
teeth are subject. and the one that ha
puzzled the dentist most, is a decay o
the enamel that is caused by microbe
but is so far incurable. The ename
simply begins to disappear, and tn
process cannot be stopped.
The only thing that can be done is t
remedy the ravages that the diseas
, makes, and this is nowadays accom-
; plished wonderfully. The teeth afte
the enamel is gone are covered wit
porcelain, and they are made to loo
, exactly like a new set OF teeth. Tn
i porcelain is strong enough to hold
any ordinary case.
The results of this disease, whic
grows daily commoner, were for awhi
! considered due to excessive rubbing
the teeth. But the physicians have no
decided that it comes from anotht
cause. although its effects are much a
u gravated by the use of q hard brush al
too much rubbing.
