An indefatigable reader Of current criticism

heart is for an inexpensive magazine contain

OF the day, eliminating alike the fossils and
the noisy writers and carefully emitting
pictures" He would limit his contributors 40
men Of real learning. not Of mere journalistic
bookishness." From them he would secure
some twenty articles a month, "all dealing with
phases of literature" and by this process he
believes an ideal publication might be pro
duccd. Perhaps, but We doubt it The first
thing that the contributors TO this wonderful
magazine would do would be to take them
selves with appalling seriousness They would
take scholarship for TT watChwOrd-
pedantry for their guiding principle. That is
the conclusion to which We are forced by OBJ
servation Of what usually happens when learn
ing Is turned into a fetish and those who fol

interests OF mankind theoretically these Spar
tans are aiming at perfection, but practically
they discount their own efforts by forgetting

MORE ANIMALS BEING
EXTERMINkTED

Another wild animal has been al
most exterminated by fur hunters.
1t is the beautiful Satan Ape of New
Guinea, which once was so plentiful
in the forests there that travellers told
how almost every tree bore its load
of handsome monkeys.
The beauty of the Satan Ape was
its doom. Its wonderful shining fur,
composed of Immensely long silken
hair, became popular for furs about
twelve years ago, and at once fur
hunters penetrated the wild home of
the monkeys to supply the markets of
Europe.
In 1892 the government figures
showed that $4,000 skins had been
shipped In that one year. Within two
years so many monkeys had been kill
ed that only 81 900 skins were export
ed in 1896 In many places the forests
are absolutely lifeless now. and it is
calculated that there will be no Satan
Apes left at all in a few years.
The white heron although 1t still
exists in great numbers in certain
parts of South America, is doomed
like the monkey, for 100000 worth
of skins are exported annually from
Argentine alone, while Venezuela
sends out about 100000 each year 1t
has been estimated that in the worst
years of plume hunting in Florida the
annual slaughter of these grand birds
amounted to 100000 in a year.
The beautiful humming bird is an
other victim Of the feather hunters,
and 1T is only a question of time be-
fore this tiny creature will cease to
dazzle the traveller even in the deep
est forest, for there is no place where
it can escape the hunter. In London
alone the weekly sales of the ruby
and emerald skins of the wonderful
bird amount to $4,000.

on the street a great deal in rainy
weather, and girls who go in for golf
ing, no matter what the weather, are
having shirtwaist suits made from
cravenette. These are very expensive
but they give the effect of a Norfolk
Jacket and are exceedingly trim for
fall wear. They are finished simply
with buttons covered with cloth to
match that used in the dress. Hats
of the cravenette cloth are made to
order on the lines of the white duck
naval reserve hats so popular in sum-
mer
In the new cravenette coats both
belt and shirred models are seen, and
the waist line is clearly defined. Brass
buttons are used very generally on
these coats. A tan-colored garment
had tNo rows of brass buttons from
collar to hem in the front, two rows
of smaller, buttons on the sleeve and
two enormous buttons on the girdle in
the back. Heavy cravenettes in elab-
crate designs are being offered as win
ter coats to be worn with furs. They
are exceedingly warm.
Cravenettes in Favor.
Women who prefer to face a light
shower clad in a cravennette suit or
coat, without the additional bother of
an umbrella, have also a rainy day
hat. A fine quality of felt in a broad
brimmed alpine shape with a silk
scarf in neutral tint is preferred.
Umbrellas come in colors to match
all the new waterproof cloths, in plain
silks and plaids. The woman who
doesn't feel that she can afford to own
several umbrellas, and has a good
black one in stock, has a case made
to match her rainy-day dress or coat.
But in the new umbrellas the smart
est modes, are shown in such colors
as green, blue, brown and dark red.
Carved wood handles showing gro
tesque animals and quantity carved
! bits of ivory are popular. The age
for mother-of setting has disap-
peared entirely.
The Rainy Day Shoe.
The question of footwear is always
a veXed one with the rainy day girl
She utterly despises overshoes, yet
her shoes are not built on lines or
from materials to shed water The
! nearest approach to the rubberless
rainy day shoe is a heavy calf-skin
boot made with rubber shoes. For
the Cuban or Spanish-heeled shoes
rubber now come with specially deep
dents for the hells, but the girl who
wears French heels must content her
self with sandals. With the advent of
heavy walking boots for women the
storm rubber has practically disap-
| peared. Both white and gray over
shoes are Offered this season to cor
respond with the light-colored foot
wear, but there is not much demand
for them.

Horned Saddle Beasts.

If there were no such animals as
horses in the world, people might get
along with cows for riding and driv-
ing. A Frenchman, Marquis d'Aygues-
wives, has COW named Suzanne which
he rides with bit and saddle exact
ly like a horse. Also he feeds her on
oats, and has taught her to jump so
that he can ride cross country with
her after a fashion.
The Marquis is extremely proud Of
Suzanne and her accomplishments,
and declares that she is more intel
ligent than the ordinary horse and has
considerable speed.

fornia ranch, has a steer which he
prefers to a horse.

EXTRAVAGANCES OF
RAINY-DAY TOGGERY.
SILK Rubber Garments Come as Hieh as Ball
0oWns-White Rubber Gain in Favor.

The girl of the hour pays almost as
much for her rainy day outfit as for
me- ball gown. In fact, a thoroughly
ur-to-date equipment of rainy day
1oggery is one of the most extrava-
gant items of a womans wardrobe.
The efforts of manufacturers to get
AWAY from the odOrous, heavy mate
rails connected in the past with wa
ter-proof garments has resulted in
eome fabric marvels, but they are ex-
ceedingly high-priced.
Last year the hight of comfort in
rainy day fabrics seemed to have been
reached in light weight cravenette.
fThis year a silk rubber cloth, not
much heavier than a good quality of
sa4fetas. is the correct thing for rainy
dav coats. 1t comes in pure white
and in the most brilliant colors, such
as blue. green and red and in the
more quiet browns, olives and tans and
I'm plaids. Rainy day coats follow
1ery much the lines of automobile
wraps and seem almost too long and
sweeping for street use.
An English Model in Blue Rubber
silk.
An English model in a fine blue rub
her silk has a very large sleeve with
a turn-back cuff, a deep shoulder cape
and high military collar. On the
cuffs cape and collar are appliques of
lighter blue silk edged with black
hratd shot with gold, and it is fasten-
ed down the front with large gold but
tons This coat has a decided dip in
the back, and is best suited to motor
ing in stormy weather.
4 much more sensible model for the
woman who walks is the three-quarter
Inverness cloak in fawn-color rubber
cloth. 1t has two deep capes, the
longer one coming to the knuckles
when the hand hangs straight at the
side. The second cape just covers the
shoulders, and the turnover military
collar is very high. Down the front
of the coat are straps or tabs of the
rubber cloth, piped with crimson silk
and buttoned across with brass ca
bochon. The capes and coat through
out are lined with crimson silk to
match the piping.
Ivory White Rubber silk Coats.
The number of ivory white silk rub
Der coats shown is simply amazing.
Some of them are lined with pale bule
or pink and look fit for wear over even
ing clothes only. Others are piped with
black and have appliques of black silk
and braid on the capes. These will
be much worn on the street in large
cities this winter, and they are less
pershable than they seem, as they can
be easily cleaned with a sponge and
tepid water.

HOW FAST DO DOORS TRAVEL7

Experiments have been made re-
Gently to determine the speed with
which odors travel. Ammonia was
sprinkled into one end of pipe about
ten feet long, and 1t was found that
the odor could not be perceived at
the other end of the pipe until two
hours had elapsed.
Sulphuric acid, camphor and other
similar materials, all having a power
full scent, were also tested, and 1t was
found that the various odors required
about the same length Of time to ira
verse the pipe.

In 1881 an necessarily and heavily
travelled bit of street at the entrance
to Euston station in London was ex-
perimentally paved with India rubber,
vulcanized for the purpose. A con-
crete foundation, finished with cement

two inches of this preparation, and,
when ready, the wheels of traffic were

his ordinary business, but he is always
ready to race him against the Cali
fornia ponies.
Neither the French Marquis nor the
American cowboy can claim to be the
first to discover the possibilities of the
cow family in the way of saddle
beasts. Many years ago James Hirst,
who lived in Yorkshire, England, and
was known as "Old Comical," had a
bull on which he always followed the
hounds. "Old Comicar' was a keen
sportsman and was present at every
hunt in the neighborhood, always
mounted on his horned steed. This
bull could equal most of the horses
of the hunters in jumping and beat
some of them in speed and many an
accident occurred because of risks
taken by huntsmen who did not
like to be outdone by "Old
Comical" and his strange mount"
