terest for the people of the United
States, writes John Goldhammer In
the Four Track News. The former are
two small islands situated half way be-
tween the California and China coasts.
They are surrounded by a coral reef
about Is miles in circumference,
which protects the islands from the
high seas. A rift in the reef admits
vessels of IS feet draught into a deep

Fashion Notes.

Hand-painting is shown on import
ed blouses of silk, velvet and satin.
Muffs are very, very large, but soft
and light, with little or no interim
ing.
New trimmings are gilt braids, old
style ruchings and Oriental embroid-
cries.
Bead belts are still in demand and
are pretty and suitable to some cos
tunes.
A combination of different kinds of
lace is seen in many of the handsom-
est gowns.
The collar and belt with buttons re-
sembling nail heads is one of the re-
cent fancies.
Collars and cuffs in Armenian en-
broidery are wonderfully pretty, and
take the place of the old fashioned
stocks. Canvas Is the material used In
the making Of them.
Girdles and cuffs are deep, and red
or green velvet with black braid is
used for the collars and cuffs of many
tailor-made gowns this winter. French
fashion journals say gray is the popu-
lar color. 1t is being used even for
evening gowns. Silver embroideries
or paillettes are used for trimming.

WONDERS OF THE YUKON.
Great River sixty Miles Wide at one
Point.


The Yukon river has some pecu-
liarities of its own that are interest
ing. The size OF that great river may
be misapprehended by some people.
We used to be taught in our geogra-
phies that the Missouri to the sea" Is
the longest river in the world, being
1000 miles In length. that the Amazon
is the widest, being 40 miles across at
It's mouth.
Those of US who have been out OF
school for some years never heard
much about the Yukon. says a corre-

at point 1900 miles above its mouth
Is go miles across.
We have heard much also about the
difficulties of its navigation in the
summer time. The two big companies
in the early days, even as late as two
years ago, used Indian pilots, chang
ing every 200 or 300 miles. because
the Indians knew the channel and no
one Indian knew 1t for more than the
distance in the vicinity of his own ma
tive haunts.
These pilots were paid as high as
$50 day for their services, and often
a steamer was Obliged to spend the
night at the bank to allow the pilot to
go home to see his family. They
tried white men finally out of sheer
desperation, and they lost their boats
or sent them aground for the season.
The white men were invariably deep
sea sailors, who were pressed into
service. The fact was that the In
dians knew absolutely no more about
the river channel than one who had
never seen 1t, excepting where 1t hap
pened to be lodging about the low.
wooded islands. For the Yukon never
has kept to one channel for 90 miles
for a month at time. What the In
dians did know was how to tell deep
water when they saw 1t. They could
tell by the rifles" almost to an inch
how deep a given spot was, and hav-
inS excellent eyesight, they could see
a long way ahead.
The crafty natives lorded 1t over
boat owners and captains for long
time, however, and many OF them
grew rich. AS soon as Missouri and
Columbia river pilots were put aboard
the day of the Indian was past.

Socialism In Japan.

The Petite Republique Of Paris. NJ.
Jaures' personal organ, has lately
been giving an account Of the growth
of socialism in Japan. Efforts to or
ganize the "proletariat" have met
with the stubornest opposition from
the government, the leaders in the
movement having been arrested, prose
cuted, and punished. One paper has
already been confiscated. The whole
tendency Of japanese socialism says
the Petite Republique, is against the
newly discovered "nationalism" and
"jingoism" which demands war with
Russia So strong, however. is this
sentiment that Socialism has been
able to make little headway.

Advice for the stout Woman.

The stout woman has little to COM

son. The vogue of the straight front
figure is boon of which she should
take advantage. While her best lines
are those not exaggerated in any par
ticular, stout woman cannot sue
cessfully adopt very severe effects. Il
Is usually better for her to wear lit
tie garniture to break the broad sur
faces which, unrelieved, are so I'M
graceful Only fiat trimmings. how
ever, should be worn. The idea tnat
tight-fitting clothes make her look
smaller is an erroneous one. The inch
or two that she contracts at waist or
hips by this means serves to throw
the other portions of tine body into
bold relief and to draw attention to
their defects. Dark colors. in con.
spicuous patterns, should be the pre-.
vailing notes of the materials used.
Bright colors attract attention. White
increases the apparent bulk; black or
dark cool tones make an object ap-
pear smaller. Black and dark blue
are always in good taste. The very
large hat should be avoided. The
broad brim and much trimming are
undesirable. On the other hand the
very small hat is equally unwise. The
ideal choice lies between the two. The
stout woman should have a frame fit-
ting the head perfectly and a brim
projecting over the face in front. but
the trim turban or toque or. walking
hat is always preferable to the more
elaborate creations. The fashionable
trottense skirt is forbidden. The
ideal dress has the skirt just touching
the ground, thus giving a perfectly
graceful line. A suitable dress would
be of dark blue broadcloth relieved
with touches of white. For while
large masses of light color should al
ways be avoided, white and other pale
tints can be introduced in little touch
es with the happiest results.-New

The Coming Rule Of Woman7

Women are today in las different
branches of business, and in some
lines are showing much more ability
than men. Recently, in one of the
largest financial institutions in New
York City, one of the managers lost
his health and was obliged to resign.
The young woman who had been for
10 years his stenographer was given
his place, and is said to be doing bet.
ter work for $4,000 year than the
former manager had been doing for
$25,000 year.

more than the men," says Rev. N. d..

Indian Tribe Ruled by Women.

A remnant of the Sevis tribe Of In
dams inhabits the island of Tiburon,
in the Gulf Of California, and is ruled
entirely by the women. Formerly the
tribe numbered about five thousand,
but is now shrunk to few hundred,
living life of almost complete isola-
tion. Food and fresh water are scarce
on Tiburon, but what is left of the
tribe is healthy and vigorous and has
always maintained its independence,
fighting valiantly for it when neces-
sary. The woman is master of the
household, and a council of matrons is
at the head of public affairs, the men
having no voice in them. They have
a nominal chief, who is man, but he
has no authoity.-Chicago Journal.
