FADS AND FANCIES
IN BELT BUCKLES
This Years Styles Really Look
Like Buckles, Not Door
plates.

Belt buckles are seer in all styles,
but the present taste seems to run to
designs that really look like buckles,
not d~oorplates or dinner plates, as was
the fad some time ago.
The square, round and oblong shapes
are all popular, though the square ones
OF medium size are seemingly the most
favored.
The newest are decorated with hand
engraving in intricate design, both gold
and silver showing the same decora-
ton. There are also machine engraved
ones, not SO expensive, but most at
tractive and looking not unlike the out
side of the watches our fathers and
mothers priced sc much.
Much depends on the figure of the
wearer in regard to the choice of a
buckle. A small round waist loses half
its curve if hidden by the large bulky
array of gold or silver seen on some
individuals, while the small dainty or
nament is lost to sight and it's effect
iveness gone If the figure be large and
massive. Let the lady of size wear the
buckle of majestic proportions, if it
be Worn at all, trusting that in admir-
alton for the the critic may
overlook the contour of the belt it fas-
tens.

HOW THE STARS ARE COUNTED.
Use Made Of the Microscope and Oh
PHOTOGRAPHIC Plates.
From the London Daily Ma

~. lit LOltQOH Ddlly Mall, 4 /.
! The gigantic but fascinating task
which ]. Franklin Adams, F. r. A. S.,
mas undertaken of counting the myriad
stars in the heavens and assigning to
each Its proper magnitude is one which
the quality of almost infinite
patience. !,
MI. Franklin-Adams has already se-
cured Photographic plates covering the
whole of the southern hemisphere, and
these with the series dealing with the
northern hemisphere, will number
more tina 200. Each plate, which is 15
inches square, records from 10000 to-
2oO,0Oo starry images, and on a rough
calculation the total number of stars
photographed will prove to be about
%, 000, 900.
The task Of counting the stars on the
plates has already been commenced.
and that work together with the cata-
loguing will take another ten years.
The method of counting the stars on
the plates was explained by r. J..
Mitchell, Mr.. Franklin-Adams' CHEZ
assistant. J
First taking one of the plates" said,
Mr.. Mitchell, I'VE move it across a
graduated grating contained in a field
of a high powered microscope. A hori-
zontal strip In the grating is Their ex-
amined and the stars in this small
area are counted from left to right.
OF course 1t is impossible to insure
SoAoS 4oA lllC i liz. pos,
sibility hat a star may be counted
twice or missed altogether.
Then there is the difficulty pre-,
sented by mechanical specks on the
plates, which may at first be taken for
stars; but Mr.. Franklin-Adams has a
method by which all stars above the
tenth magnitude can be differentiated
from dust specks. Mr.. Franklin-Adams
and his assistants check one another
in the counting, but there is always
II slight difference in the totals, due of
course to the personal equation as rep
resented by the operator.
Merely to count the stars on an
average plate, apart from noting their
Photographic magnitude, occupies the
time of two men for more than a fort
night if they work seven hours a day.
In taking the plates Mr.. franklin
Adams used a triple achromatic ten
inch lens working at F4. In the north
ern hemisphere the minimum exposure
was 2 hours and 20 minutes and in
the southern, with its clearer atmos-
phere. 9 hours"

come people are thin and always re-
main thin, from temperainental rea-
sons. Probably in such cases nothing
. be done to change his personal
zpeculiarity.
but there are a large number of peo-
nte who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and heshy
a for some digestive derangement.
Thin people lack in adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue 1s chiefly composed Of
fat.
Fat is derived from the oily consttt-
uents OF food.
The fat-making foods are called by
Che Psychologist, Hydrocarbons. This
class OF foods are not digested in the
stomach at all. They are digested in
che duodenum, the division of the ALI
mcntary canal just below the stomach.
The digestion of'fat is mainly, If not
wholly, the work of the pancreatic
Juice. This juice is of alkaline reac-
Zion, and is rendered inert by the addt-
eton of acid. A hyperacidity OF the
digestive fluids of the stomach passing
down into the d~uodenum, DESTROYS
b pancreatic fluid for digestive pur-
poses. Therefore, the fats are not d.
xcsted or emulsi1ed, and the system il
deprived of it's due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
chin.
The beginning of the trouble lis a ca
earrhal condition of the stomach which
u hyperacidity Of the gastric
Juices. This h~yperacidity is caused by
fermentation of food in the stomach.
When the food is taken into the stom-
ach, II the process Of digestion does
not begin Immediately, acid fermenta-
Zion will take place. This creates a
~fayperacidity Of the stomach tuices
which In their turn prevent the pam
ssreatic digestion of the oils, and the
0maciation results.
A dose Of Peruna before each meal
Mastens the stomach digestion. Bv
hurrying digestion, Perunn prevents
fermentation OF the contents of tho
stomach, and the pancreatic Juice is thus
preserved in Its orrna state. 1t then
only remains for the patient to eat
Auficient amount OF fat-forming foods,
and h thtnness disappears and plump
mess takes its place.
