hypothesis That Seems to Explain
the Constant Revolution Of
the Eyeball.

The medium In which fresh-water
fishes live gives them a chance to see
a great distance only In the horizontal
direction. 1t seems impossible to ex-
plain the constant revolution of the
eyeball on any other hypothesis ex-
cept that the optical axis extends for
ward instead of sidewise.
When q fish wishes to eat anything,
either at the bottom of the pond or
at the surface of the water, 1t swims
directly toward the object; and in this
case the eyes are instantly adjusted
In line with the body, SO as to bring
the image of the particle desired upon
the posterior portion of the retina.
In this case they lose their horizontal
position.
If a fish wishes to turn to the right
or left in the water, the first move
ment is that of the eyes In unison IN
the direction Of the turning. This
would be entirely unnecessary if the
apparent axis was the axis of the most
distinct vision, as one Of the eyes
would see all that was to be seen on
the side of the turning. After this
movement of the eyes, the body turns
enough to bring the eyes into their
normal position, then there = again a

Shapes which flare off the face have
captivated many fancies and are apt
to lead all others for summer wear.

moss joined, by band of black velvet

crown, make this hat which will har-
monize with almost any costume.
This shape is to be had in many COX
ors as well as black and white. 1t Ia
pretty in black hemp or tagal, and In
good black chip will prove serviceable.
The color of the roses is matter Of
taste, which the wearer may settle to
suit herself.

Explosive Neckties.

There are several processes of manu-
facturing artificial silk which are
based on the use of ordinary cellu-
Lose, reduced to a plastic condition SO
that 1t may be drawn into threads.
These are woven into various forms
whose chief difference from real silk,
tn the eye, is that the material is
gNossier.
All but one of these processes yield
a silk" that is as safe as cotton. The
other employs nitro-cellulose, or SOL
u6le guncotton, from which the
threads are drawn in ether or alcohol.
After the thread has been drawn and
is ready for weaving it is supposed to
be denitrated. If it is, then 1t is en-
tirely safe. Otherwise it may be ex-
ceedingly dangerous, for it then re-
mains nothing less than guncottor
spun into fabric.

there is already too much foolishness

Small Girls HobbIe-sklrt.

There is apparently considerable d.

other frocks the belt is so far down
as to hamper the tiny wearer in her
walk almost as absurdly as does the

children, but is not becoming to every,
