Fads for Women.

The oversktrt seems to have become
a permanent style, for the newest
models in wash frocks are displaying
this feature, If not by actually add
ing the drop, then by stimulation.
For instance. the upper skirt Is
Joined to a deep flounce under hem
or fold. giving the effect of two skirts
while being only one Another has
panniers on the hips. These come
from plain front panel, the lower
portion of the skirt being laid in
pleats,
others are modelled 10 show the up
per and the under skirt.
Imagine a display OF bathing suits
with the snow still upon the ground,
yet such an exhibition is shown now
in several shops.
One OF the smartest styles is COM
bination of plain black and black and
white striped material--not unusual,
of course It Is In the arrangement Of
the two fabrics that originality is dis
played.
A slashed ovcrskirt of the black
falls over skirt OF the contrasting
goods, the stripes going around the
figure, and the waist and pun sleeves
carried out in the same effects.

handed the watch over that he sup
posed more mainsprings broke in win
ter than in summer.
But the jeweler said no: that con-
trary to the general impression he
thought more mainsprings broke in
summer. He said that If you took a
watch out of a warm pocket and laid
1t on Il cold marble slab 1t might break
the handspring, but he thought that
more mainsprings were broken by
electrical disturbances in the air in
summer than by cold in winter. He
added that a new handspring might
break the day after 1t was put in, a
handspring being a very fragile, deli
cate and sensitive thing. II a watch

being wound up again keep a little

AS he was going to have a new
handspring put in this watch owner
thought that he might as well at the
same time have the watch cleaned. II
had not been cleaned, he said, In
about year and a half. The jew
eler applied a watchmaker's glass to
his eye and opened the watch and
looked in, remarking then that the
watch was last cleaned two years ago,
In January, 1908. 1t seems that when
a matchmaker cleans watch he
marks upon it the date Of the clean

two years, but 1t would be well to have
it cleaned now, and ii was wise to
look after watch at the end of a
year and a half, There Is a watch
makers saying that a man who neg
lects his watch does so at his own
expense, meaning that though the
owner may thus fancy himself saw

film is developed like any other
negative, and when dry a contact
print is made on another piece OF
transparent film of corresponding
length. after which process it IS
ready 10 be shown. Such progress
has been made In this process that
to-day a film can be developed and
ready for use twenty minutes after
having been exposed.
The rapid growth made by the mo-
ton pictures has not been without re-
suits on various other things. 1t Is
estimated that the decrease in attend
ance of the gallery Of the regular
theater has been so per cent. This
has IN another way helped the actors.
II gives them greater opportunities, of
employment, as the business of posing
for the silent play is gradually rising
to the level of a recognized profes-
sion. The censorship of the moving
picture houses has now become a reg
ular thing, and in this way the class
of films shown is to IA certain extent
shaped in the same way as the regu-
lar drama.
With the beginning of the moving
picture craze the exhibitors bought
their fllm outright, and were forced
to pay large Professionally about
$40 per film. To-day the country
abounds with exchanges. which fur
nish two films a day on the rental ba-
sis. The price of this service varies
-fr-fsi- 20 a week for the best-class
Of films down to $50 week for those
which have been running for a year
or longer.
A school for operators recently has
been opened, where beginners are
taught the handling of the machine
and given a knowledge of electricity
and the calcium light which is used
in the projection of the films upon the
screen. Fires, due to carelessness on
the part of the operator, have proved
menace to the business, but the dan

Ever know that marbles--iust plain,
everyday marbles--were ever put TO
any other use except as playthings for
childronT
Millions of marbles are manufac-
tured every Year Ii YOU are a man
the subject of marbles just naturally
interests you, because the word re-
calls fond recollectlons-day of trad
ing and playing and counting. And
when you see a crowd of boys at the
game you used to play, don't you feel
like getting down on your knees just
to see II you can shoot as good as
in years gone by? And doesn't the
sight of marbles in a store window
bring back--but this Is about mar
bles that are used commercially and
not as little spheres to roll about the
ground.
The next time YOU buy a sleeping
car ticket notice the rack from which
the pasteboard is withdrawn that will
entitle you to a berth. You will see
hundreds of tickets in runs or grooves
from which they may be taken easily.
The runs or grooves holding the tick
cts are in a slanting position, When
one ticket Is withdrawn another slips
into Place waiting to be taken out
for the next traveller desiring a place
to sleep on his journey,
1t Is marble-just a plain, every
day marble of the kind you used to
play with--that pushes the remaining
tickets into place When the slanting

minutes. The bread and butter she al
ways prepares after luncheon, and If
it is not used for tea is in good condi-
ton for dinner. AS soon as a visitor
arrives she excuses herself, saying
tAet-sfe wishes to get tea, and tn
stantly turns up the gas under the ket-
tie. By the time the articles are on
the tray the water is boiling and the
tea Is made instantly.
When one has a maid there Is no
necessity for leaving the guest.
The idea that afternoon tea must be
elaborate is mistake. Only when a
woman lives elegantly is 1t expected
that she will have several different
kinds of sandwiches and various cakes
as well as candies, every afternoon.
The object Is to offer hospitality III
keeping with ones usual manner OF
living. Even II visitors do not care
for tea they are apt to take cup and
pretend to drink it, and the refresh

How valuable are you to the COM

Are you worth $1,000 a pound for
every pound you weigh? There is
one man in the United States who
is regarded as worth exactly 3d.

That man is John II. Jones. The

which he is president, has insured
his life for s1,000.000.- There is only
one other person now known to carry
SO much in one policy. That man
is George w. Vanderbilt.
However. the Pittsburg Buffalo
Coal Company did not insure the life
of it's president because of his avoir-
