IS OFF ON HIS CLAPPING
Unable to Achieve Proficiency in
Handicap Used to Summon Jap
Servant.

There is one kind of handclapping
I am not yet proficient in" said the
gray-headed man. II cannot call a
Japanese servant by clapping my
hands. l clap, but the servants do not
answer. A friend of mine has two
Japanese servants. When he wants
attention he claps his hands and one
of them appears. AT his home yester-
day needed a sheet of paper to finish
bit of writing l was working on in
my friends absence. l clapped my
hands, nobody came. clapped louder.
and again still louder, but the Japan
csc persevered in their retirement So
l substituted calling for clapping and
presently l got my paper. l told my
friend of my failure. l said I knew
the art of clapping well enough to
make my sentiments known at the
play at ball game and at a political
meeting, then why couldn't l summon
the Japanese?
You haven't got the knack, said
be- A white man has to associate
with orientals for months before he
learns the peculiar handicap that they
recognize as a summons
Then he gave me few lessons,
but l am sure that have not mas
tered it yet and that If / should clap
again for Japanese servant he would
let me clap till my hands were sore,
under the impression that l was kill
ing moth millers or roofing for q
home run"

ORIGIN OF STYLES
AMERICANS TAKE THEIR IDEAS
FROM PARIS.
Fashion Must Be Followed Even
Though the Styles of Gowns and
Millinery Cannot Be Made
to Look Attractive.
sY FRANCES eRosvENoR.

All at once, from the quarters of
the compass, comes an inquiry into
the origin of the styles with which
American women are blessed-or af-
ficted-in the fashioning of their
clothes. 1t seems that our apparel,
especially in the matter of millinery,
has not only failed to please our men
folks (who fain would worship at the
shrine of beauty adornedO. but has
provoked revolt on the part of many
women during the past year.
The Merry Widow" and the Peach
Basket" (alluring names for hats)
called down the wrath of our male
relatives, made US the sport of the
caricaturist in the daily press, and
even provoked a revolt on our part
How did we come by such atrocious
millinery? Mr.. Bob tells US 1t was
foisted on us by the French, in WHOM
we have had such faith for so long
a time All this commotion served as
advertising, and thousands OF us went
on our way-not serenely-gett1ng in
everybody's else way with our "mer-
ry widows" and resembling toad
stools under our peach baskets, de-
feating our own efforts to look attract
i've and meriting the settled convic-
ton in many minds that women are
hopelessly foolish when 1t comes to
following the fashion.
Our conglomeration of models
comes 70 us through many channels
and EFT is the STYLE" or "They are
wearing this" are bound to cease to
be a big stick. We are destined to
become more Independent in our

DRESS DETAILS IMPORTANT
Attention to Little Things VIII Raise
the Hat or Gown Above
Mediocrity.

In dress, as in other things, the i'm
,portance of the attention to little
things is essential If this be done,
the big effect will take care of itself.
A gown, hat or wrap can be raised
from a plane of mediocrity to that of
distinction by the introduction of lit
tie details of ornamentation that are
decidedly successful in the attainment
of that end, yet are within the reach
of most fingers.
A hat that in itself Is the duplicate
of hundreds of others can be treated
to a peculiar binding or an unusual
adjustment of ornaments. The bind
ing, by the way, offers wide field for
differentiation from the usual fiat vel
vet facing. Fringe in silken or linen
form is distinctive, If used as an edg-
ing for the turned-down rim. SIX or
velvet can be pulled or shirred over
the edge, while a rose quilting is the

Flower ErIezes.

A pretty English idea lately come
TO America is the application of a
frieze, consisting of canvas or pa
per border of flowers with the back
ground cut away with sharp pair OF
embroidery scissors, to the white or
green painted walls of bungalow.
The dado or ceiling border thus
formed is very effective and may be
applied to every room in the cottage
with a differently tinted wall and a
different choice of flowers appropriate
ly distributed for each. Try 1t on your
summer bungalow.

on the Marmor properties in Greece.
The saw itself is an endless steel rope;
of three strands, loosely twisted to-
gether. This cutter is passed round a.
driving-wheel and carried on guiding,
pulleys from a power house at high
speed. The wire saw enables stone
not only to be cut from the rock bed,
but sawn on the spot into blocks of
a handy size for export.
What Is known as the channeler, or
channeling machine, is in operation at
all important quarries in the United
States. A locomotive machine, feed
ing on a rallied track and driven either
BIZ steam or electric propulsion, it
consists of row of long vertical CHS
els set in a strong travelling frame.
The gang of chisels vibrate up and
down, rapidly cutting channel in any
direction in the face of the solid mar
BILE ledge or floor.
In Aberdeenshire, granite areas
reach their maximum. The Rubislaw
and Kemnay quarries are the largest
granite quarries in the United King
dom, and have each a depth of 800
feet. The rock is removed by boring
and blasting, and as the material is
blasted out the blocks are lifted from
the working face by cranes and cable
ways, masses beyond the power of the
| lifting appliances being further broken
uo as they lie. Rock drilling is carried
out by power drills, either by steam or
compressed air. At the Rubislaw
quarry a complete new air-compress-
ing plant. driven by 100-horse power
electric motor, is installed for working
rock drills, the pressure being 100
| mounds per square inch.

Handkerchief Case.

A novel handkerchief case consists
of two squares, a little larger than a
folded handkerchief, of cardboard,
padded and covered outside with Gre
tonne and inside with silk, with but
tonholed edge or band of gilt gal
loon The handkerchiefs go between
these, and the case is held together by
a circIet of silk rubber with lace
edging.
This case is very convenient for
travelling, as it holds number of
bandkerchiefs and does not take up
the space of the ordinary handkerchief

newest trimming for that part of the
hat
Then, again, color in the form of
beads, silk or velvet can be used with
a discreet eye for unusual combina-
ton of tones. In other words, the
unusual but approved alliances of
shades make for the distinctive. A
detail perhaps that many women over
look is the question of hatpins. Just
as soon as one considers these orna-
ments of utility (and dangers) to form
a part of the hat scheme there will
be added effect. Do not choose prom
iscuously the pins, each of which is
very beautiful. but in the relation to
others detracts from the whole. Sure
ly, the immense discs should be made
TO contribute to the headgear.
In dress the details are extremely
important Little pleatings that are
for the most part hidden, applications
of tiny buttons or narrow braid, hid
den bands of color under lace and the
wonderful attention to hooks, loops
and buttons at all fastenings are the

Motifs not applied by the machine.
but by hand, and buttonholed in such
a way that the material melts into the
edging are extremely effective. Pip
ings of two or three colors form tiny
lines of contrast on unexpected places.
while piece of embroidery or chintz
that many of us would consign to the
scrap bag can be made important as
a decorative agent.
Last of all, let there be paid care
full attention to the accessories with
which woman adorns herself. With
red dress use the jewelry that best
harmonizes with the shade. Black and
white are more friendly to the jewel
casket, but the rule of one color
scheme is the best to be observed.
