1t is said the Japanese think our
grown women most alarmingly over
grown, very shocking in their costume
and quite dreadful as regards their
teeth and. their feet-in a word, out
rageous. They consider the kimono
preferable to, western habiliments be-
cause it so completely obliterates the
lines Of the figure. They teach girls to
talk with their lips almost closed, con-
cealing, the teeth, and to walk with the
feet parallel in tiny steps or even toe

Signs of Coming Earthquakes.

Can an earthquake be "felt' ap-
preaching as a shower of rain can be
felt and fall Of snow? On the Ri
viera in 1887 the horses laid their ears
back and gave every sign of uneasl-
ness. In Chile the birds have been OBJ
served to fly inland just before a con-
vulsion. In Talcahuano in 1885 all the
dogs fled from the city. These actions,
of course, as a scientist who has col
lected valuable list, suggests, may
be mere condolences, for birds will
fly inland and kittens become nervous
when no earthquake is nigh On the
other hand, as the lower animals are
singularly sensitive to any changes OF
weather and to pressure of the air
they may even be conscious OF sub
terranean movements which do not
come within human ken or are even
not detachable by the most delicate
instruments"

RecoiI of the Dreadnought's Broad
side Is Something Astounding.

RecoiI of the Dreadnought's Broad
side Is Something Astounding.
1t has been estimated that the
Dreadnought's broadside develops
force equal to the lifting of an entire
city block composed exclusively of
twenty-story sky scrapers! Little
wonder that the uncouth monster
skidded sideways under the recoil
like an automobile on a muddy road.
1t is little wonder that France has
laid down six Dreadnoughts to be
completed within the next two years
and Germany quickly followed, with
Japan and ourselves equally anxious.
Our reply to the Dreadnought is a
projected ship of 10000 or $4,000
tons, with perhaps twelve-inch guns
mounted in dcubleturrets.
The latest developments are tur-
bine torpedoes, with range Of 1000
yards and a speed of thirty-fve knots
They cost about $4,000 each, and are
actually controlled by the boat they
leave by means of electric light rays
received on tiny shaft projecting
from the torpedo as it tears through
the water Thus the automatic mis-
sile is under control and may be
brought back at any moment,

Connoisseur in Bull Terriers and Rare
Editions SoreIy Vexed.
A certain young man of literary
tastes has two somewhat incongru-
Gus yet almost equally expensive fads
"a fondness for dogs of illustrious
pedigree and a love for first editions
of celebrated books. One day he in
vited a friend to his house to see two
OF his latest acquisitions One of
them was an imported bull terrier and
the other was rare copy of work
by a celebrated Boston Author. He
exhibited the dog first
Isn't he beauty?" he exclaimed.
Hes the finest specimen of that
breed that was ever brought to this
town and I got him for about half
what he's worth. Yes, he's perfectly
harmless and as gentle as can be.
Now I'll show you something in the
book line that you don't see every day.
Cost me a good round sum of money,
too"
They went into the library and the
first thing that caught his eyes was
the mangled wreck of his cherished
volume lying on the table. He sum-
moned his colored servant.
SAM he said wrathfully, what
has happened to this book? wouldn't
have had it ruined for a hundred dol
lars!"
Hit wuz de dawg, suh," answered
Sam. "Yo' left i'm in hyuh when yo'
went away, sub, an he done chawed

New York Was once New Orange.

Manhattan island was once named
New Orange for fifteen months. When
the English took it from the Dutch
the name New Amsterdam was
changed to New York, and then when
the Dutch recaptured it in July, 1913,
they called it New Orange. 1t held that
name until the English retook it in NO
vember, 1914, when the name New
York was restored and has been re-
tanned ever since.
