play and hard usage. Also it is quite
correct for cashmere, albatross, chal-

terials that many mothers use for the
cold weather frocks of the girls who
have reached the mature age of six.
The dress itself is tucked to form the
yoke. and consequently making is a
very simple matter and the sleeves
can be in full or elbow length, while
the dress can be trimmed with band

The dress is cut with front and
back portions and is finished at the
neck with straight standing collar.
Whether the sleeves are cut to the
wrists or the elbows they are gath

undoubtedly hard. but he was fairly
equipped for the struggle, having
teeth like gorilla and sinewy arm
that could WELD a club with deadly
effect against his four-legged enc
mics. He went hunting after the
lower animals, and enjoyed getting
the atrangle hold on deer or sinking
his teeth in the neck of young cave
bear He would often beat his prey
over the head with a rock. When
ever he used stone or club; he prob
ably congratulated himself on his
superior methods and felt a mild con-
tempt for the dulness of his cousins,
the apes. When he glanced in
stream of water he admired the in
tellectual aspect of his forehead and,
