Low Temperature on Fish.

NJ. Pictet. the French scientist. has

stand the greatest amount Of cold. He
has subjected them to temperature
Of 120 degrees c. below freezing point.

stand temperature Of 20 degrees;

One Of the cleaning processes for

W0MAN's FOOT GROWS LARGER
Shoe Manufacturers Say Number
Two Shoe Is Now Almost
Obsolete.

Shoe manufacturers claim that the
American woman's foot is growing
larger. The number two shoe Is al
most obsolete. they say, and sizes
four and FIVE are much commoner
than three. The explanation seems
to be that the phenomenon is due to
the increased use of the feminine foot
as a means Of locomotion. The con-
stantly increasing number of women
engaged in industry and the growth
in popularity of tennis. golf and walk
ing have had their inevitable result.
and common sense has done much to
abolish the wearing of pinching shoes.
The tradition that small feet are an
excellent thing in women has per-
sisted long and will not die without
struggle. Conservatives need not
fear that women will carry this mat
ter too far; they know when to stop.

GREAT VARIETY IN COLLARS

Old Ones Retain Their
Popularity.

A large variety of fall collars is be-

models do not show the regulation
sailor collar. many are made with the
new shaped sailor, which almost
reaches to the waist line, but is con-

Large round collars and pointed col
lars are also much in evidence.
Hoods and hood effects are meeting
with considerable success. Some of
the coats have the collars made so as
to have an adjustable hood which can
be used to cover the head when de
sired. When unbuttoned It forms a
sailor collar.
Double collars, consisting of deep
