least partially so. in cold water. The
third method makes use of machine eX-
erting centrifugal force and is known
as the centrifugal or separator system.
The quality of the cream either for con-
sumption or for manufacturing purposes
is not affected one way or the other by
either of these systems, but the quantity
of cream obtained varies. In separating
cream by force of gravity, there is a
greater loss of fat and more time is re-
utIired than when centrifugal separation
is used. ', hen milk Is set for cream IN
shallow pans. the care is greater and

was less expensive. yet it was pretty and
stylish looking.
An outing hat with high, dented crown
and broad brim f1aring up from the face,
the ornamentation being three narrow
bands of velvet drawn through metal
buckles, is an example of what can be
bought for 81. A better quality in the

At 81 there is a large milan hat with
soft, pliable brim, allowing variations in

1t is decorated with a ribbon band.

Dress hats for little misses are in at

moderate prices. Among those displayed

consisted of as many flowers as the hat

The composition Of the air at great

Of meteorologists. In the earliest aseen.
sions Of unnamed registering balloons,
twelve or fourteen years ago, attempts
were made to secure specimens Of air
from the upper strata Of the atmos-
phere In one case half gallon Of air
was thus collected Us analysis showed
a composition identical with that Of air

OF monthly ascensioas which was subse-
auently instituted revealed the remark

perature with increase OF elevation,
which was observed at all lower levels,
was found to cease at height Of about
1000 meters $4,000 feet), above which
level the temperature was found to rise
slightly but regularly with increase Of
elevation. This upper warm stratum
has been found everywhere, in the tropi
cal and temperate zones, near the arctic
circle and over the Atlantic ocean.
The discovery Of this singular reversal
Of the temperature gradient suggested
possible different in the composition
Of the atmosphere at high and low levels
The French meteorologist, Tesserenc de-
Bort. although he did not share this
opinion undertook an experimental in
vestigation Of the subject. He suspend.

been completely emptied Of air. At a

and admitted sir. The tube was then
sealed again by the heating Of a plati-
