roundings as New York, no city with
such a pleasing prospect OF land and

Educating the Filipinos

In the Philippine Islands 300 Ameri-
can and o,ooo Filipino teachers are busy
educating nearly 10000 pupils of all
ages.
Mr.. Scott, chief clerk of the Philip
pine Board of Education, said few
days ago that 10 per cent of the popu-
lation of the Philippines, nearly 100000,
now speak English, and that the Filipino
boy until he reaches the age of nineteen
is mentally superior to the American OF
the same age, but there his superiority
ends, and our educational system has not
existed long enough to enable us to de-
termine his capacity during the second
period of his mental development.
The Filipino boy is inferior physically
to the American boy at all stages, but
the girl of the islands, according to Mr..
Scott, though of small physique in early
years, exceeds at the age of sixteen the
stature of the American girl, and is in
comparably superior to her native
brothers.
All the American teachers and 400 OF
the Filipinos are paid by the insular gov
ernment. The others are paid by the
municipalities.

FADS AND FANCIES.
BY MIsNA scHArr CRAWFORD.

The returning throngs of designers
and dressmakers fresh from their sum
mer explorations through the smart shops
of Paris and London have brought over
some very practical new ideas in semi
fitting short and long coats that will be
hailed as a welcome departure from the
tight-fitting styles of the past two years.
The return of the gored flare skirt,
which fits smoothly at hip and waist
and falls into voluminous folds at foot,
is also greeted with enthusiasm. The
circular skirt is very pretty in theory,
but its tendency to drag and dip at the
sides makes it ungraceful. In the new
skirts this sagging tendency is corrected
by means of cores and plaits which give
the new skirt the effect of being en-
panelled Its numerous seams enable
the drcssmaker to utilize narrow IA
brics and secure the full effect of the
circular skirt without disfguring criss-
cross seams.
Folds continue to be the favorite gar
niture for skirts. These may be cut to
the exact shape of the skirt or made OF
bias material, and are usually lined with
crinoline. Great care must be exercised
to cut the crinoline on true bias, other
wise dampness will cause it to pulp
and spoil the shape of the folds.

The first letter from Tyler. dated Oc-

worthless. Yesterday. its day for

UNBORN CHILDREN
FIGURE IN COURT
Protection of Their Future
Rights Basis of French
Suit.

PARIS. December PA curious action
is before the French courts, in which
unborn children are the plaintiffs. To
protect the future rights of little French
aristocrats who are yet to make their
appearance, the law seeks to save his
toric heirlOoms of the noble Sauvingny
family from being sold by Paris deal
eEs. perhaps TO American collectors.
Count Rene Jean de Bertier de Sau-
vingny inherited from his father. with
the title and estates, four valuable
pieces of Beauvais tapestry, given to
the family by Louis XVI. and twelve
Reauvais tapestry gauteuIls, presented
by the city of Paris. These the late
count left to his son. under the limited
entail allowed by French law, that is.
for one generation.
Although he was thus forbidden TO
dispose of the property, Count Rene de
Sauvisny sold the tapestry and chairs
TO Paris dealer in antiques Tor S255. 600
He and the dealer are now being sued
by lawyer on behalf OF the counts s
heirs that may be, for he is at present
chtldless. The court has ordered the
dealer TO give up the tapestries, pro-
