FoR GRAPE PUDDING.

There are several recipes for. the
making of Grape Pudding. some of
which are served hot, while others are
eaten cold. If 1t is the cold pudding
that is desired, squeeze enough grapes
to make a pint of juice. Dissolve
half a box of gelatin in cold water,
and When it has become soft add
coffee-cupful of boiling water, an
equal quantity Of sugar. the juice of
one lemon, and. finally. when it shows
indications of stiffening. fold in the
stiffly beaten whites of two eggs, and
set near the ice until very cold. Be-
fore sending the pudding to the table
unmoltl it. and cover with well-swGet
ened whipped cream,
To make the hot Grape-Pudding,
butter an earthen baking-dish, and
fill it with alternate layers of seeded
grapes sugar and breadcruns.
Make the last layer one of crums, and
bake in a moderately hot oven for
about half an hour. Serve with hot
sauce.

Opera length silk gloves will again
be largely worn this winter with short
sleeved frocks for every occasion save
the most formal. Many Of the after
noon costumes are shown with the long
tight fitting sleeves. silk gloves are
very popular also for wear when a muff
Is carried. They do not sweat the hand
as a kid glove does.
Marie Weldon, fashion editor OF the
New York Times, has this TO say about
the glove: For evening wear there is
no doubt that the elbow and short
sleeves will prevail as usual. aud there
fore long gloves of II, Is or 20 button
length will be worn. In purchasing
silk gloves for evening wear the long
lengths should always be selected. as

Giffused custom of primitive races proce
on investigation to be one OF the origins
of grammatical gender. it must not be
concluded to be the only origin. Tn
doubtedly the tendency among wild races
to personify all nature must have led fr-
resistibly to the formation of classes Of
words the termination and the plan of
infection of which differentiated then
as masculine. feminine or neuter. Thus
among the early Romans the indwelling
spirit of a river was conceived of as .
male deity: that of a fruit-bearing tree.
as female Still. if it should ever be
established that the feminine words in
language are largely due to the influence
of woman il is obvious that her influ-
ence upon language has been vast.

Beads made of bone and shell are more

of 10 600 beads have been found in this
village.
The burial grounds are practically the
same for each clan. differing only in the
number of implements and ornaments

Maybe They Wed for Economy.

From the New YORK Press.
There have been more marriages in
high social circles within the last twelve
months than in any previous year within
decade. What's the reason? This
question has been asked repeatedly by
friends who have to smile and buy many
wedding presents. and the only answer
advanced SO far has dealt with economy.
Hardly a plausible explanation at first
glance: still many clever mothers have
come to the belief that hard times have
induced scores of young men to hurry up
and pop the question. Getting married
has been less of an expense of late than
ii was before the panic in last October.
Young women have not expected SO much.
That is the testimony of every member
of society. Extravaganza is no longer
the rule: fortunes are not spent on floral
decorations. with the reflected necessity
upon the bridegroom to do his part on
the same grand scale. Neither is II neces-
sary to lavish princely gifts upon the
bride; the young woman does not ask
for a Newport palace. a steam yacht and
an airship.

tion in which the bodies were placed. AT
one time eight skeletons were exposed TO
view simultaneously. None Of the skele-
tons taken from this village site during
the explorations grants any evidence that
these early people were any larger IN size
than the people of the present generation.
Several skeletons were found that meas
ured six feet in length, but such were
quite rare: while the average length OF an
adult skeleton was five feet five and one

diameter. In the center of this little
hut was the fireplace. and just outside
of the tepee were the refuse pits. which
are very abundant. Nearby is the

or clan. for it has been discovered that
the mound builders lived in small clans.

The refuse pits are circular excava-

and from four to seven feet deep. Most
Of these pits are bell shaped. having
greater diameter at the bottom. though
a few have been found that have the
same diameter all through. In them
are found animal bones. broken pottery,
indictments and ashes. These pits are.
in a number of cases, in close proximity;
some are only a few inches apart, while
others are separated by several rect.
In considering the daily life of the va

would infer from the great quantity OF
broken pottery found in the refuse pits
that the people were all versed IN making
pots and jars.

among primitive peoples in capturing

far the study of his remains. shown by

Near the foot of this hill was an extensive

For almost a century mounds and earth
works have been examined, and the NOR

studied. and the daily home life OF this
people has been brought to light by an

has been carefully explored by the aid of
the pick. spade and small hand-trowel.

Near the center of the village is situated

This dam gives a depth Of eighty-five feet of water, in the lake from Gatun straight on through the canal Such a depth of water was sufficient to allow safe channel over the rolling ground be- tween Bohio and Gatun, but deduct 56 feet of water from this lake, and there will be places remaining which will not furnish the 45 feet of water, the minimum depth of the channel must show. Therefore, 1t will be nec- essary to set out line of steam shovel in this stretch which measures about eight and half miles in length. There are other places In the stretch which will require no excava- tion.
 All this work will add to the length of the time for constructing the waterway, and will add a cost which has not been figured for with dam at Gatun lifting the water 30
