Fancy Neclxwear.

Fancy neckwear makes such an iTn>
portant feature of the seasons dress
that its making really becomes a
question of moment Here are de-
signs which provide for generous
variety and which are very simple,
while at the same time they include
the latest styles. In the Illustration
the jabot is made of fine white batiste
edged with a simple lace, while the
turnover portion of the collar is of
striped material and the stock is,
made of net banded with Insertion
and edged with lace. The turnover
collar is one Of the best liked models
and is available for every fashionable
material. For the stock collar net
and lace, chiffon and the material of
the gown, almost anything that may
be liked, can be utilized with trim,
ming to suit individual fancy.
The jabot is made in one straight
piece, which Is gathered and arranged
over a foundation. There are two
bows which are differently shaped
and each is gathered at the centre
and held by cross-over portion. The
Follower collar is made with band

FREAK OF The TIDES.
At the Mouth Of St. John River, Where
Water Flows Up Hill.

Water Flows Up Hill.
Speaking of freaks Of the tide, there
is nothing in this world to equal the
phenomenon at the mouth Of the st.
John river, where water flows up hill
and down twice daily. These revers-
Ing falls are in class by themselves
in the worlds natural curiosities.
The rise Of the tide in the bay of
Fundy, which ranges up to sixty feet,
averages at st. John harbor twenty
eight or thirty feet.
At the mouth of the st. John river
the great body Of water Is forced
through deep and narrow gorge. On
the one side Of this gorge the harbor
opens; above it the st. John river,
nearly 500 miles long, stretches away
into the province of Quebec.
When the tide in the bay Of Fundy
Is on the flow, the waters rise with
such rapidity that the level in the har-
Dor becomes in less than an hour con-
siderably higher than the level In the
river.
The water Is forced through the
gorge at such rate that it literally
falls up into the river, the height Of
this fall reaching at times fourteen
feet. So great Is the area of the river,
SO great is the amount Of water rising
In the harbor and SO narrow is the
gorge that it would take hours longer
than the interval Of any tide to bring
the river level up to that of the harbor
at high water.
AS Q consequence, after the tide has
turned and is on the ebb In the harbor,
the level is still SO much higher than
the river that the tide in the river con.
tinues to rise for two or three hours
the water still falling upward.
The same force works in. the flow
After. the water. in the harbor has
fallen until the level in the harbor and
In the river are the same the fall
downward begins. During the mex
few hours the harbor recedes until the
drop from the river to the harbor is al
much as sixteen or seventeen feet al
the very lowest tide. Once more the
tide turns inward and comes up quick
", but over three hours elapse befors
1t is sufficiently high to counterfeit ths
downward flow from the river.
At half tide there is a period Of
something less than an hour wheI
