wears better than any of the cheaper
grades of silk velvet, and, being very
reasonable in price, we can all enjoy
the delightful sensation of an elegant
gown or suit. The corded velutina Is
best suited for entire costumes and
makes ideal visiting gowns. 1t will
take any kind of trimming. but re.
quires very little.
In the best new woolens from abroad
we have rather lighter weights, but no
less fine and desirable goods. They are
so fine that one must look closely TO
note the design. There are pebble and
sable surfaces, some of these having
IN over design of herringbone stripe
showing in some lights only, but full
of surprises as it folds. Another de-
sign has narrow stripes Of satin sur
face between plain sable or ''sanded'
weave. This, like the entirely plain
sable. Is the gentlewoman's choice.
Still another has the sabled foundation
with tiny basket squares along the sur
face. The object seems to be to OBJ
tain the most unobtrusive and refined
design possible, and with these almost
invisible zigzags and stripes the manu-
facturers have done it.
There are lines of different weights

In the finest Australian wool, some
closely woven and others as coarse as

ored silk. The effect is beautiful

Among the novelties we find chiffon

are of the velutina.

Miss Moons Magazine For the Blind

In England Il magazine of current
has been established by Miss Adelaide
Moon. Hitherto the hapless blind folk
have been shut out from general news
and literature. Miss Moons father,
himself a blind man. devised a raised
alphabet for the &ghtless. This his
daughter uses in her magazine. which
is published at Brighton. In connec-
ton with her magazine the lady also
conducts a shop in which she prints
books in the raised alphabet. The
magazine has proved such a boon to
the blind in Great Britain that it is
proposed to start a similar one in
America.

The color scheme often includes many
bright tones that blend into inconspicu-
Gus harmony.
Radiate, a variation of radium, takes
first place among the fall silks. 1t is
almost transparent and very lustrous.
This silk will be made up into elab-
crate blouses, but the waists require
a thin lining of some description.
All kinds OF lace and embroidery
will be used on winter gowns, but
heavy cushion embroidery is the new
est fad.
Black silk lace will trim many smart
black costumes, with a touch OF color
to relieve the somberness.
Sleeves are still deliberately trimmed,
and 1t seems one can hardly overdue
the matter in this respect. The short
pulled sleeves are as full as ever, but
they are less epaulet in fashion, most
Of the fullness being drawn toward the
elbow, while the shoulder is flattened

Irish lace ending in motifs trim the
fronts, supplemented by groups of tiny
tucks. The elbow sleeves carry out the
same idea. JUDO CHOI.LET.

MARINE TURTLES.
How They Are stripped of Their
Shells While Alive.

Shells While Alive.
The shells shipped from the Colon
district are taken from turtles caught
on the Lagarto and San Bias coasts Of
the Caribbean sea during the months
OF May, June, July and August, when
they approach the shore to deposit
eggs, which are laid on the sandy
night. Holes are dug about one and a
half feet deep and the eggs deposited
therein. Generally about three laylngs
are made during a period of nine
weeks. The eggs are lightly covered
with sand and left to be Matched out
by the heat Of the sun. The turtles are
caught either while on shore or in the
water by meal of nets.
AS a rule, they are killed Immediately
after being caught, cleaned and the
shell frame washed with sand. But on
the San Bias coast the Indians do not
kill them, but at once proceed to re-
move the shell by subjecting the tur-
ties to great heat, afterward throwing
the turtles back into the sea. By the
application of heat the successive plates
Of shell come Off very easily.
Turtles caught in these waters vary
in size from one to four and a half feet
long, with a maximum weight of 100
pounds, and the average weight Of
shell obtained from each is from six to
seven pounds. The commercial value
of tortoise shell depends upon the thick.
ness and size of the plates rather than
upon the brilliancy of the colors.

They Waited Well.

\ large audience once gathered In
Baltimore to hear Professor Sylvester
read a unique original poem of 400
lines. all rhyming with the name Rosa
lind. He had appended to the poem Il
large number Of explanatory f%ootnotes,
which he said he would read first.
When at last he had done so he look
ed up at the clock and was Mortified to
find that he had kept the audience an
hour and a half before beginning to
read the poem they had come to hear.
The establishment on his face was an
swered by a burst of good humored
laughter from the audience, and then,
after begging all his hearers to feel at
perfect liberty to leave II they had en-
gagements, he read the Rosalind poem.

AntismOking Edicts.

Strenuous efforts have been made in
times past to stamp out smoking.
Among the rules of an English school
in 1929 it was laid down that "a master
must be n man Of grave behavior, nei-
tler papist nor Puritan, no haunter Of
alchouses and no puffer Of tobacco" In
Turkey, where the pipe is now omni-
present, former sultans made smoking
a crime, and offenders were punished
by having their pipes thrust into their
noses, while in Russia a royal edict or
dered the noses of the smokers to be
cut off.

nous spinster is Jane Adams of Hull

are members Of the Chicago board of
education, in which they are the re-

adopted by the board all school mat
tiers are now in control of a triumvi-

a committee from the teachers union.
Thus the teachers themselves help con

The demand for laborers for rail-
roads Is particularly heavy just now,

small 1t is not that there are not
enough men, but that the men seem
disinclined to engage in railroad con-
struction work this sort Of weather.
AS a result, the construction compa-
MES are finding it difficult to keep their
work going on uninterruptedly.
The forces of laborers secured by
the railroads work for only a day or
two, then pack their belongings and
move along to some other place. They
seem disinclined to labor, despite the
fact that the shortage of men has re-
suited in a substantial raise in daily
wages for those who will work.
