The Evening Chit Chat
By RUTH CAMERON

u ow do you LIE when you sleep? And a you lie in more than one
4 l position and be comfortable?
An fmpertinent question?
( III admit it does sound SO. but I'll tell you why / ask 1t.
II Il have just beer fordbly impressed with the danger of forming too
kfigd a habit In this respect.
6 A friend of mine "a operated upon for appendicitis. The opera
Zion vas emfnentIy successful, but my friend had a pretty serious time OF
AT simply because he had to lie o n his back IN account of the nchion,
Ebd having invariably slept o n his side all his life, he could not get to
lkleep in the lev position.
Z A young business woman contributes a les seriousb but the
Jess unpleasant experience. She sprafned her right shoulder and, hav-
ing a rigid habit of always sleeping o. that side, lost several nights
sleep and was actually incapactated for work because she had to lie o n
ther back.

the proper position in which to sleep.

A Dolls Silver Set.

A set of silver for the dolls dress
ing table can be made from tinfoil, sc
it is a good plan to saw all the tinfoil
that comes around candy, etc, and
smooth it out nicely. You may make a
mirror for the dra wing Don or the
dolls boudoir of the tinfoil with a Dor
der of gold paper. Cut out a piece OF
cardboard in any shape you desire
and then cover it with tinfoil. The gilt
border should not be plain, but should
be cut into ornamental corners or used
to cover a raised frame of cardboard.
If you are going to use the mirror for
the dining room or library of the dolls
house make the mirror in the same
manner with q double cardboard frame
around the edge and cover this frame
with dark paper in the wood tones.

An Old Timer.

Turtles are one of a few kinds Of an
imals that live longer than men do.
They look their age too. A turtle that
had a date mark On him, though not
the date OF his arrival in the world,
was found a few days ago IN New
York, not far from Poughkeepsie, where
the boat races are held on the Hudson
river In the early summer. The turtle,
which was a land tortoise, was found
by David B. Sleight, who lives on the
farm where his father lived for many
years. On the turtles back, but in the
hard shell, Mr.. Sleight found his ia
theirs initials, A. w. S., and the date
1854, cut deeply and still plainly Wis
ible. He added his own initials and
the date and turned the little creature
loose to live perhaps until another gen

A Rathtub by the SEES.

A few miles below Delmar, Cal.
there may be e In a rocky ledge
peculiar basin cut out OF solid reck

Is about five feet At high tide the
basin Is filed; at low, 1t and the sur

Above the basin r cutters, which al

Is supposed that the bath WIS used by
the Indians in early times ana that
they heated the sea water by means
of heated stones. It is not improbable
that the sick redskins obtained relief
from skin diseases and other Ills by
baths In the hot salt water Of this pc

This beautiful model wrap is a pro
ductton emanating from a famous Pa
risian workshop. The home dressmak-
er, however, need have no fear in
copying the exquisite creation in a less
elaborate fashion.
The materials used in the wrap illus
trated are chiffon cloth, and the or
namentation is carried out In fine silk
braid and bead embroideries. The nov
ell feature is the cape, which falls
from the back, and the draped sleeves
are another attraction

Hattie Enjoying
Her Daily Bath.

PHOTO Dy american fTeSS ASSOClaLlOn-
Elephants, as most young people
know, are very fond of bathing, and
in their native jungles frequently seek
the rivers and lakes to enjoy a water
frolic. Down at Coney Island the
pachyderms take a swim in the surf
and greatly enjoy buffeting the salt
htllows. When bathing at the beach
the huge beasts are accompanied by
trainers, who sit on their cccEs and
guide them from the water when their
time Is up. This is necessary, for they
are show animals and must be In their
places when the performance begins
II left to themselves they would prob
ably forget all about their engage
ments. The elephant In the picture is
Hattie, the famous performing ele-
phant In the Central Park o The
photographer caught her as she was
getting her daily bath from a hose.
Her expression shows she is enjoying
it hugely.

THE SHEEP OF PALESTINE.
A Feature of Outdoor Life Found
Everywhere in That Land.

The most common sight out of
doors in Palestine is the sheep,
writes Frank G. Carpenter. They are
everywhere. You find them on the
rich plains where the Philistines liv-
ed; they feed among the rocks on
the slopes of the Judean mountains,
and spot the wilderness all the way
down to Jericho. They Craze on
every part of Samaria and GaIiIee
and almost everywhere on the plain
of Esdraelon.
They are always watched over by
shepherds, and are often driven to
new feeding grounds. The greater
part of this country is mountainous.
Limestone rocks are covered with
soil so thin that if you could pare it
off for depth of eight inches there
would be nothing but stone. 1t is
different in the plains and valleys,
but the hills are terraces of rock COW
cred with powders and sprinkled
here and there with patches of earth.
The conditions, however, are such
mat INC i6dSL III VI sui Will grow
luxuriant grass, and the sheep seem
to grow fat on the stones.
| remember some fiocks I saw on
my way to the Jordan. They were
heavy wooded animals, with tails of
fat hanging down like aprons behind
them. Most of them weighed 200
pounds, and the average was fatter
and finer than the best sheep of
America
The shepherds are about the same
all over Palestine. They are kindly
eyed men with their faces sbronzed
by the sun. They stay out all day
on the hills with the sheep, driving
them into the villages at night.
Each shepherd has his staff and
his scrip, little bag of dried skin.
He uses a sling, as David did, and
stones his sheep to keep them from
straying. The strings of the sings
are of goat hair, and the pad for
the stones is of the same material,
often made with a slit in the middle
so that when a stone is put in the
sling fits close like a bag. Such
things are now used in contests be-
tween the boys of the villages, who
practice to see who can throw the
fartheSt.
