activity, says: Gas the solar activity
will slowly diminish, it is highly prob

It will be REMEMBERED that Able Mo-
reau, in an article which was widely
copied, predicted the earthquakes which
few months ago devastated India and
which, he hold, were due to sun spots.
He maintained the following in an ar
ticle published this week:

of sun spots is not alone decisive

Earthquakes, and especially vol

of fracture of the globe, and partic-

lines: (a) the west coast of the two

DIR. Oberwinder begins with the dec

then proceeds to enumerate few of
the troubles which he says she has pur-
posely created for her own purposes.
The Wars Britain Incited.
Among the formidable category are
the French revolution of 1889, all of
the revolutionary troubles of 1848, the
Polish rebellion of 1867 to embarrass
Russia, the Franco German war of 1870.

eral and conservative governments are
said to be alike. They have continued

fish brutality towards all other nations.
| Example of Intrigue.
| AS examples of British intrigue the
author declares that British newspapers
concocted the story of an anarchist
plot at Alexandria to prevent the Ger
man emperor paying his intended visit
to Egypt. Describing British influence
at the Russian court the author says
that the czarina countermanded an or
der given by the car during the Boer
war to send Russian expedition to the
Red Sea:
Again, the American press is said
to be absolutely dominated by the
British influences. The British are
likened to robber barons of former ages
in having erected fortified places at
Gibraltar, Alden. Singapore, and other
commanding points where peaceful
travellers are waylaid.

London, Oct. 28.-Sir Edwin Corn
wall, who was knighted the other day
for his services as chairman Of the Lon
Londoners by the recital Of some Of
the stupendous figures in his budget
speech. -: 5--s.,-~., .s,+r'' t. :.
: Within sixteen years the debt Of the
county council has increased from $87, )
S16,31O to 1928, 101,3 $3.50 and the amount
expended on the local government Of
London is greater than that Of Norway
and Sweden combined, double that Of
Rumania and four times that Of Den
mark.
In spite of these figures, or perhaps
because Of them, Sir Edwin claimed
that the .couEcil has deserved well of
London, and he said:
1t is greater body than the gov
eminent which created it thought it was
capable of being. It is a eater body
than the members Of it, Use as they
are to it's work, yet realize.
HIt is, in short, what the people
and the needs Of the people have made
it; but it has also greater problem
before it, namely, to prove that com.
munity Of 100000 people is posi-

to solve such problem properly there
is needed one all-important thing
namely, an efficient organization.

to lead the way, in all things municipa

| Sir Edwin long speech was packed
full Of interesting facts and suggestive
expressions Of opinion. Here is a brief
selection:
s Fifty or sixty years ago the deatf
rate Of London was 24.8 per 1000
! now it is 1875. That means a saving Of
i about $4,000 lives a year, but the ap

Suitable and at the same time be-

teen or fifteen are among the hardest
problems that a dressmaker has to
solve.
Girls at this age are seldom graceful
and are generally too tall, or too thin,
or too stout, and besides these difficult
ties they must not be dressed like little
girls or yet again like grown up girls.
Simple fashions are almost always
the best to select, and If they are made
of a pretty material in a becoming
color the result is sure to be far more
satisfactory than an elaborate or fus-
silly trimmed model
One dressmaker who has been most
successful in making charming chill

that she pays the greatest attention TO
getting the exact shade of a color that
is most becoming-and those that har-

generally the best-and then if the
skirt is of just the right length and
hangs absolutely evenly, she says the
dress is sure to be satisfactory, no
matter what sort of simple adornment
is used on the waist.
This statement about the correct
length and hang of the skirt is of the
greatest Importance, but few home
