. ONE wise man not long since put
u forth an elaborate treatise on the
effect of color on the tempera-
ment and temper of the individ-

4 effect of color on the tempera-
ment and temper of the individ- |
ual, and evolved fine color scheme for
tlie gowniEg of women, each III just the
shades conducive to her best happiness
and well being, and let US hope, good
looks as well. For alas and alack. this
wise man in telling us that the nervous
woman must never, never wear bright
red gown, but must be soothed by soft
grays and layenders, entirely lost sight
of the fact that she might. have a sallow
and lifeless complexion that would lose
its last vestge Of prettiness when she
donned a gray or a lavender frock. And
once the wea1er confronted herself in a
mirror we fear the soothing influence
would be nil.
But though the learned savants theo-l
ries may be somewhat far fetched, there
Is no shadow of doubt of the effect Of
the color of the costume both on the
wearer and the audience. Quaker gray
conjures up visions of occurrences, sweet
temper, modesty; brown of sterling
worth, straightforwardness candor; black
of somberness. intrigue, and so on
through the color scale. The man who
announced his preference by saying he
liked "any old color So long as it was
red may really only have been express
ing a longing for the cheeriness and ami
nation and brightness that invariably
emanates from the wearer of the red
gown.
To the observant it might almost seem
as though our fashionable women were
trying out this color philosophy this win
ter. for many of them have apparently
chosen one particular color and are using
it as the keynote of their entire winter
wardrobe. One popular American actress
claims that when a woman discovers the
color tones most becoming to her she
may wear these shades morning, noon
and night without their becoming monot-
onous even to herself. And with the pres
ent perfection of the dyer's art. and the
great range of shades offered each sea-
son, it is not difficult to see the truth
of this. But let not a woman imagine
because she has found her green gown
eminently becoming that she can wear
any and all shades OF green satisfac-
torily. There are shades of green that
are not only becoming, but positively
beautifying, to almost every type of wom-
an. But strict attention must be given
to the coloring of skin, hair and eyes in
deciding the shade of ones green gown
or the effect may prove disastrous.
Even though one may not choose to
base the entire wardrobe on one color,
one must keep the one-color scheme in
each costume if one wishes to be strictly
fashionable this winter. The hat matches
the costume in color, often in material,
since velyets are so widely used. When
a foreign color is introduced it is always
q skilfully planned touch that heightens
the general scheme of monotone The
very extensive use Of fur and fur gar
ments has taught women some good color
lessons. The girl who is the possessor of
handsome fur set quickly learns with

 "Hut, madam" protested the man. ager, there is absolutely no animal aifefhsre to be maltreated. See; there are thousands of cases of eggs in cold storage here"
 Well, some one told me that there was cruelty to animals in here," per sisted the crusader T understand that these are cold-storage eggs, pre- served for six months or more in a frigid atmosphere below zero. Now, yonug man, could you swear that none of these eggs contain young chicks?"

Indiana Scientists Want Money For
 Biological Survey of Canal Zone.
 According to Indiana scientists, the, will be remarkable reunion of long separated relatives of various fsl tribes when the Panama canal is co.a pleted, says a Washington special t the New York Globe. They are any ious to know all about 1t, and they are going to urge congress to make an ap- propriation for q biological survey Of the canal zone, about which they have some entertaining theories.
 The Indiana Academy of Science is back of the movement. It appears sci entific studies have shown that tens Of thousands of years ago there was wa ter connection across the present 18th mus of Panama. This Is known, be cause the small fish that swim about in the Pacific near the lsthmus are de rived from those on the Atlantic side. But many centuries ago the water con nection was cut off, and since then the fish have differentiated and have de veloped independent methods of living.
 When the canal is finished 1t Is ex- pected the fish on the Pacific side will rush to meet their cousins of the mill lionth degree over on the Atlantic side and that then will come to pass all sorts of rapid evolution.
 Senators Hemenway and Beveridge and the HOOsier members of the house will be expected to urge an appropria- ton for the survey.

ATTRACTING WILD GEESE.
Electric Lights in Western Towns Encircled by the Fly
 ing Fowl.

A mortimer" in Oklahoma a week or two ago brought with it heavy flight of wild geese and ducks. At Guthrie and other towns having cleo tric street lights geese circle all night in the illuminated mist, often flying so low as to be in reach of shotguns. A number of geese were killed, re ports the Kansas City Times.
 An old hunter said that on such a night wild geese in high flight mis- took these radiant spots in the dark ness for water. Once in the light the geese quickly lost their bearings, be- came confused and seldom extricated themselves until daylight revealed the cause of their deception. Knowledge of the attraction of fire beacons for wild geese on stormy nights was used to advantage by native sportsmen in southern Kansas and the northern Osage country where I lived in early days" said the hunter.
 "As fall approached, a high land mark would be chosen by the hunter and on it's top he would pile wood for a big fire. Then he waited for the storm that brought the geese. Light ing his fire, it's glare could be seen for miles. Geese were drawn to the spot by hundreds. have known hunters to kill wagonload of geese in sin gle night"

HOW TO WALK WELL.

Don't drag your feet or fling them, nor lag nor stride. Learn to glide into a room gracefully.
 It is impossible for woman to be awkward in her walk if she turns her toes out and keeps her knees stiff. The act of swinging the feet out gives one a graceful gait.
 '. Set your feet down at right angles. Walk slowly. Skirts wind round your calves when you walk rapidly and all semblance of grace is lost Walk in a leisurely manner as if you were a prin- cess, not hurried, worried, ,overworkel woman. os
 Don't swing your shoulders. ''7 7s
 Don't swing your arms. cse %sn =,
 Don't twist yourself in sinuous mo tion. Don't contort. Don't wiggle. #
 Hold your chin up. This is the most important thing of all.
 Don't walk nor look nor act like an old person. There are no old persons in these days.
 Touch the ground first with the balls of your feet, with the heels striking an instant later S
 Hold your shoulders back; don't try to draw them down.
 Learn how to be seated. Don't sit with your clothes wound up around you.
 Don't sit on the ragged edge of things. Be seated squarely.
 When you walk consider the style of you dress. If you are dragging train walk slowly. The longer and the heav- fer the gown the slower you must walk. If your dress is light and short you can walk more rapidly.
 And first, last and at all times, be dig nified.
 An ungraceful walk will spoil the most elegant gown that the dressmak. CTS art can design.

Baby's Mouth.

The little rosebud of a mouth must be swabbed out several times daily with soft rag squeezed out in boiled water, in which half a teaspoonful of sporic acid has been dissolved. Just as soon as dentition begins, each little tooth must be carefully cleansed after each feeding. The soreness and tenderness of the gums can readily be relieved by gentle rubbing with the finger, due care having first been taken to see that the finger is sur
 glcally clean;" that is, that some good asepticizing fluid has been used to vash the finger with. Never put your finger into baby's mouth without care, fully washing 1t first; infection of
 more than one kind has often been traced to this practice.

GLASS FACTORIES ron SAND HILLS
Immense Project Involving New Rail-
road and big Power Plants.

VALENTINE, Neb., Dec. lo-(Special)-
Plans are under way for the converting of
the hitherto useless sandhills of western
Nebraska into marketable glass, and the
project is being undertaken on
scale which promises to bring a
large number of people into this
sparsely populated country It seems that
the sandhills have at last become attrac-
tive not to ranchmen this time, but to big
capitalists These thousands and thousands
Of acres OF sandhils, which the govern
ment has been trying to get rid of for
many years by Offering $50 acres to anyone
for a homestead, and since the Kinkaid
bill has been in effect, $40 acres have been
allowed to each settler, have at last been
discovered to have great value and 1t be-
hooves everyone to take up and establish
homestead on all the land obtainable.
The Chicago Tribune of recent date made
mention of a glass city to be established
in northwestern Nebraska on one of the
large rivers OF the state. The exact loca-
ton OF this glass city" was left open for
imagination. At the junction of tho Min
nichaduza and Niobrara rivers, near Fort
Niobrara. will be constructed two large
dams. One on the MinnichaduEa and an
other on the Niobrara river. Until re-
Gently all the land from Valentine to the
mouth of the Minnichaduza belonged to the
government, but has now been purchased

1t is the intention TO build a railroad
from this point through Valentine and
south about twenty-eight miles into the
sandhill district The end of the road is
to be near Red Deer lake, on a ranch
owned by Mr.. f. c, Cochran OF Chicago,
who may become interested in the enter
prise. This railroad is calculated to ham
