Red haired women are the fashion one
year. black haired beauties the next,
golden haired the third, and SO on.
Every nice looking woman seems to
have her innings IL she only waits
long enough.
It is rather hard, however, on the
woman who goes out Of fashion. II
her clothes are no longer in the mode
she can give them away, and get 9TH
ers, but she cannot make over herself,
and her only chance is to wait until
the wheel of fashion makes another
revolution. II is very much the same
thing with characteristics, although
they, of course, may, and very often
are changed to suit the requirements
of the day. For several years the ath-
letic girl had 1t all her own way. She
began by being very much admired;
then she grew rather too independent
and mannish. and her stock began to
decline. until a decided reaction set
in. People began to have sweet men,

curls and ribbons and diaphanous mus

again at hand, and started in with
their little ways" and pretty clothes,
armed for conquest, while their ath-

ened by the desertion of their male
companions, solaced themselves not
unsuccessfully with one another. But

rather too sweet-to modern ideas a
little cloying. So now everyone is
asking, What next?" That some
thing interesting will evolve there ia
never a doubt.-New York Tribune.

But for their expensiveness IL ia pro-
bable that pavements in India-rubber
would be largely used in city streets.
That, at least, is the inference to be
drawn from experience with rubber
pavement in London. In 1881 the two
roads under the hotel at Euston sta
tion were paved with rubber two
inches thick. This pavement, under
heavy traffic, remained in continuous
use for 21 years. In 1902 1t was re-
newed, having been worn down to
about half its original thickness. Late
ly a rubber pavement has been laid
in the courtyard of the Savoy Hotel,
London. The cost for covering an area
of 75 by so feet was nearly $4,000.
1t is announced in an English scien-
tific journal that the high-level observ.
atory on Ben Nevis will be closed
next month. The annual cost Of the
double observatory, high and low level,
Is close to $4,000; of this sum about
threefourths is spent on the high-lev-
el and onefourth on the low level sta
ton. The treasury has offered to pay
direct to the Scottish Meteorological
Society on behalf of the Ben-Nevis OBJ
servatory the $3.50 recommended by
the Committee of Inquiry into the ad.
ministratoin of the Parliamentary
grant for meteorology instead of max
ing this sum charge on the meteoro-
logical grant. The continuance of the
ohservatories could, however, only be
undertaken on a guaranteed income OF
$4,000 year. The directors have there
fore decided to close the observatories.
