WAISTCOATS MADE OF WOOD
Scientists Discover Method Of Making
a Thread of Cellulose Extracted
From Spruce Wood.

Are you wearing a wooden waist
coat? If not, probably you soon will
lbe. Clothes made literally from wood
are the latest sartorial venture. The
discovery of this new process is large
ly due to the fad that bleached cotton
is known to be composed of very near
ly pure cellulose.
Working on this basis, scientists
have discovered a method of manufac-
turing a thread Of cellulose extracted
from spruce wood.
New England cotton spinners are
exceedingly optimistic about the dis
covery, and with material manufac-
tured from this latest process expect
to produce clothing at prices far below
those now charged. The finest prod
uct will, it is said, be cheaper than
cotton in the bale.
In addition to this cardinal advan-
tage, the new material can be dyed
any color, and-a very important point
the dye viii not fade. Lastly, the
material is noninfammable.

Der the night of the burning Towards
morning a most weird and solemn
sight presented itself-the Catholic
sisters tramping alone in charge of
many orphans driven from their home
by the fire. After the fire we moved
to another part of the city, and again
camped in the yard of a private
house. We got feather beds out of
the houses and used them. We also
took piano into the yard and played
upon it for awhile; then broke 1t up
to burn for cooking. Most of those
houses were deserted by their own
ers, and, of course, what was there

RIBBON AS IEWELRY

enamel slides at intervals throughout
its length, with hook and catch to

set in rhinestones, again in turquoise,
or semi-precious stones, occasionally
IN finely chased gold.
Besides being new and fashionable,
such a guard is serviceable and much

than jeweled gold chains or even the

South American goulash for luncheon,
although 1t was too salty, and every
one was thirsty the rest Of the day.
Bella was horrid, of course. She
froze Jim until he said he was going
to SIT in the refrigerator and cool the
butter. She locked herself in the
dressing-room-it had been assigned
to me, but that made no difference to
Bella-and did her nails, and took
three different baths, and refused to
come to the table. And of course
Jimmy was wild, and said she would
starVe. But l said, "Very well, let
her starve. Not a tray shall leave my
kitchen" 1t was comfort to have
her shut up there anyhow: 1t post
poned the time when she would come
face to face with Flanagan.
Aunt Selma got sick that day, as
have said. l was not so bitter as the
others; / did not say that l wished
she would die. The worst ever wish
ed her was that she might be quite i'll
for some time, and yet, when she be-
gan to recover, she was dreadful to
me. She said for one thing, that it
was the hard-boiled eggs and the state
of the house that did 1t. And when
said that the grippe was a germ, she
retorted that | had probably brought
it to her on my clothing.
You remember that Betty had drawn
the nurses slip, and how pleased she
had been about it. She got up early
the morning Of the first day and made
herself lawn cap and telephoned out
for a white nurses uniform-that Is,
Of course, for a white uniform for az
nurse. She really looked very fetch
ing. and she went around all the morn
ing with a red cross on her sleeve and
a Saint Cecilia expression, gathering
up bottles of medicine-most of It
flesh reducer, which was pathetic, and
closing windows for fear of drafts.
She refused to help with the house
work, and looked quite exalted, but by
afternoon 1t had palled on her some
what, and she and Max shook dice.
Betty was really pleased when Aunt
Selma sent for her. She took in
bottle Of cologne to bathe her brow,
and we all stood outside the door and

Everything do is wrong. She spilled
the foot-bath into her shoes, and blam-
ed me for IT,"
1t took the united efforts of all Of
us-except Bella, who stood back and
smiled nastily-to get Betty back into
the sick-room again. was supremely
thankful by that time that / had not
drawn the nurses slip. With dinner
ordered in from one of the clubs, and
the omelet ten hours behind me, my
position did not seem so unbearable.
But new development was coming.
While Betty was fussing with Aunt
Selma, Max led a search Of the house.
He said the necklace and the bracelet
must be hidden somewhere, and that
no crevice was too small to neglect.
We made a formal search all to-
gether, except Betty and Aunt Selma,
and we found lot of things in differ
ent places that Jim said had been
missing since the year one. But no
jewels-nothing even suggesting a
jewel was found. We had explored the
entire house, every cupboard, every
chest, even the insides Of the couches
and the pockets of Jim's clothes
which he resented bitterly-and found
nothing, and must say the situation
was growing rather strained. Some
one had taken the jewels; they hadn't
walked away.
It was Flanagan who suggested the
roof, and as we bad tried every place
else, we climbed there. OF course W.
didn't find anything, but after all day
in the house with the shutters closed
ON account Of reporters, the air was
glorious. It was February, but quite
mild and sunny, and we could look
down over Riverside Drive and the
Hudson, and even recognize people we
knew on horseback and in cars. II
was a pathetic JOY and we lined up
along the parapet and watched the
motor-boats racing on the river, and
tried to feel that we were in the world
as well as Of 1t, but it was very hard.
