The Shadow of Science.

1t is hard to believe that a shadow
IS probably the origin of all astrono-'
mical, geometrical and geographical
science. The first man who fixed his:
staff perpendicularly in the ground
and measured it's shadow was the
earliest computer of time, and the
Arab of today who plants his spear in
the sand marks where the shadow
falls is his direct descendant. 1t is
from the shadow Of a gnomon that
the early Egyptians told the length,
of the year. 1t is from the shadow of,
a gnomon that the inhabitants of Up

work for a water wheel. In this case

shine a shadow was the primitivol
chronometer. 1t was also the prim-'

Novel Ornament.

A very pretty gown seen recently
was of gray chiffon I'VE soft silk,
simply cut, and practically its only
ornament, besides a gold colored silk
yoke with Chinese chrysanthemum
embroidery, was an enormous ribbon
chrysanthemum at the belt. Each
petal of the flower was a strip of lar
row ribbon, with a triangular. fold in
the middle of it, that turned it over
and gave a little heavier portion to
weigh it down.. These folds were
jroned heavily into the ribbon, and
then the innumerable petals were
sewed in chrysanthemum shape at the
waist line with gold thread (the rib
bon itself was gold color): Nearly all
the petals we're allowed to droop and
fall in the natural way, only enough
being tackled back to give the fluffy
flower effect. 1884,.

NOVEL IDEA IN TEA GIVING
Passepartout Idea Work Used to Give
Enjoyment to the Invited
Guests.

When n Of the members of a de-
butante group sent out cards for an in.
formal afternoon tea she wrote on
them Passepartout. Tea without ex-
planning what form the merrynlaking
would take other than tea drinking.
and what part passepartouting would
play in it.
The girls found the parlor table set
forth with a quantity of pretty prints
selected from art magazines, art
photographs, etc., with shears, library
paste, mounts, glass, and passepartout
tape in different colors.
All drew around the table, and
guests ere asked to choose the pic
lures they liked and to passepartout
them according to fancy. An hour
passed delightfully."- in this agreeable
craft, after which the three or four
pictures prepared by each fair maid
were exhibited and all voted for the
exhibit which was considered happiest.
After the awarding of the prizes a
dainty tea followed, the idea of the &C.
casion being introduced in many clever
little ways. For instance, the napkin
rings were bound into cylinders with
strips of passepartouting tape, and for
place cards tiny glasses from unused
photograph negatives (of a very small
sized camera) had been washed and
employed to passepartout dainty pic
lures clipped from magazines. Each
picture had the name of some girl and
a jingle relating to her written upon
it. the pictures chosen appropriately.

GOOD IDEA FOR A C0TILL0N
Empire Effect Lends Itself Charming
~ to the Decorations and Favors-
Some Pretty Conceits.

The hostess who wants to entertain
we'll and does not have to count pen
MES should give an empire cotillon.
The idea would lend itself charming
ly to the decorations and favors.
IT,. Empire wreaths and garlands of
pink and white roses should decorate
the walls. Tall dull gold empire gas
ilets with long handles filled with the
same flower should be placed about
The rooms. And empire screens could
shade the electric lights to give the
soft glow of innumerable wax candles.
For favors she would have many
charming conceits to choose from.
Among the prettiest would be pin
cushions in the shape of these small
empire baskets. Their centers are
stuffed for the cushion, and they are
made of dull furnished gold, in wick
er, with the edges and handles twined
with wreaths of small satin flowers.
And empire work bags made of dull
brocade with furnished gold trim
mings, and the picture Of some beauty
Of the French courts framed on the
side make stunning favors.
Empire scarfs in shaded pink and
white, gold and white, and the green
and white of that period are infinitely
attractive used as favors.
Small gilt mirrors in empire design,
furnished gold jewel boxes so typical
of that charming day, and tiny fans
make lovely favors.
Then If all the girls wore empire
frocks, and empire wreaths of pink
and white roses were given them to
carry over their arms, a fascinating
effecs would be attained.
TIE empire idea should also be car
ried out in the supper room, the table
decorations of gilded empire baskets,
filed with pink and white roses. This
idea should show itself in the ices,
and everywhere possible in the table
accessories.

Jimmy marries Bella Knowles; they live

CHAPTER II-Jimmy's friends arrange
70 celebrate the first anniversary OF ms
divorce. Those who attend the party are
Miss Katherine McNair, who every one
calls Kit. Mr.. and Mrs. Dallas Brown,
the Misses Mercer Maxwell Reed and a
Mr.. Thomas HARRISON, South American
civil engineer. The party is in full swing
when Jimmy receives a telegram from
his Aunt Selma, who will arrive in four
hours to visit him and his wife Jimmy
gets his funds from Aunt Selma and after
he marries Ghe doubles his allowance. He
neglects to tell her of his divorce, as she
Is opposed to it. Jimmy takes Kit into
way so that his aunt will not learn that
he has no longer a wife. He suggests
that Kit play the hostess for one night

but is finely prevailed upon to act the
part.
CHAPTER IIT-Aunt Selma arrives
ana the deception works out as planned
as she had never seen Jim's wife
CHAPTER IV.-Jim's Jap servant IS
taken i'll, his face is covered with spots.
Bella, Jimmy's divorced wife enters the
house and asks Kit who is being taken
away In the ambulance, she insists it IS
Jim. Kit tells her Jim is well and is in
the house. Bella tells Kit it wasn't him
she wanted to see, but Takahiro, the
Jap servant, as she wished to secure his
services. HARRISON steps out on the porch
and discovers a man lacking a card on
the door. He demands an explanation.
The man points to the card and he sees
the word smallpox printed on it. The
man is an officer from the board of health
and tells him the house is under quar-
antine and that the guests will have to
stay until the quarantine is lifted
CHAPTER V.-The guests suddenly
realize their predicament, the women
shed tears, the men consider it a good

But after we got over our surprise,
we saw the situation was serious. The
policeman was threatening to awaken.
Once he stopped snoring to yawn
noisily, and we beat hasty retreat.
