VELVET DISPLACED BY SATIN

Of Fashion.

To a degree, black satin is taking
the place of black velvet for girdles.
To ear with round-skirted house
frocks Of wolfe or marquisette in
white, cerise or blue, a certain young
woman, just back from Paris has a
three-yard length of double-faced and
very broad black satin ribbon which
starts under a buckle at the back of
the waist line, goes once about the
figure and falls down the center back
of the skirt, almost to the feet. She
also has a collection of big black satin
bows, which she finds useful as orna-
ments for the front of the bodice, to
loop up a skirts drapery and to pin
on to a hat.

silk, satin or velvet and often COM

GOT RICH In

MIGRANT IN C~ANADA-WEST,

The following straightforward state

it's force and effect. 1t appears in a
recent issue of the Liverpool Mer.
curry.
H. Patterson, Of Nutana, Saskatche-
wan, Canada, when he arrived from
Liverpool, had "Six of US to support -
to use his W ~phraseology, and his
funds were getting low. He secured
a homestead 80 miles out from Sun
durn, and started living on it April
Is, 1907. The previous fall he put all
his money, $137, into a shack and lot,
making sure of a home. AS cook and
caterer in a local hotel he made SIS
a month, and out of this had some
savings out of which he paid his
breaking and improvements on the
homestead. The shack was sold to
good advantage. Then Mr.. Patterson
tells the story after he had removed
his family to the homestead:
For the first month life was SO
strange and new that I hadn't time to
think Of anything, only fixing up our
e home. I was so green to farm
life that l didn't know the difference
between wheat and oats q do now)!
Between working out, cropping my
place, and with my gun, we managed
to live comfortably for the three
years, which time was required to put
in my duties. 1 had accumulated
quite a stock Of horses, cows, pigs,
fowls, and machinery in the three
years.
In October, 1909, I secured my pat
ent to my land, so took a few days
holidays to Saskatoon to locate a
purchased homestead wiz, 12s. per
acre. from the Government. Instead
of getting the purchased homestead,
l secured a half section (320 acres)
on the Saskatchewan River for S25
per acre on easy terms, nine years
payments with a cash payment Of
$1,000. I mortgaged my first home
stead, obtained chattel mortgages on
my stock, and on December oath,
1903, took possession; on June 10,
1910, / sold out again for $40 per acre,
clearing, besides my crop GAO acres),
$4,000. / also sold my first home
stead, clearing $1,000 and two Saska-
toon town lots, which we value at
$1,000 each today. We placed all our
capital in another farm (river front

MARKS NOVELTY IN SCARFS
New Arrangement of Garniture That
May Be of MalIne, Chiffon or Net,
as Desired.

Scarfs of maline, chiffon, or net are
still three yards long and at least a
yard wide, but they are worn in a
wholly novel way. One end of the
flmy material, gathered into many
deep folds, is ribbon-stayed, pinned to
the bodice an inch or more above the
waist line, then drawn up one side and
across the back of the neck, then down
the other side of the bodice to form a
deep V, there caught under an orna-
mental buckle and finally allowed to
run ~diagonally over the side of the
skirt. Sometimes the scarf is caught
half way down the skirt with a second
ornamental buckle matching the one
used upon the waist and again it hangs
freely almost to the hem Of the skirt.
The new scarfs are untrimmed and
have no finishing other than the sell
wages of the material at the sides, but
the end which is not ribbon-stayed
must, of course, be finished with a
deep hem.

Autumn BIouses.

Sheer blouses for autumn wear are
of soft mulls and batistes embroid-
cred with huge scallops done in heavy
silks. An embroidered dotted swiss
blouse of this sort, worn with a dull
blue worsted suit, had a collar and
cuffs of white agarie, and the but
tons down the front were of glass
with turquoise enamel centers; link
cuff buttons to match finished with
long sleeves, says the Montreal Star.
The smart tailored suit was accompa-
MED by patent leather boots with but
toned tops of cloth to match.
Chiffon blouses, laid in tucks and
having the tucks stitched conspicu-
ously in contrasting color, are a fall
notion. A navy blue chiffon model by
Beer has groups of tiny tacks stitched
in white, and a white satin collar and
cuffs trimmed with white satin but
tons.

IN LONELY CORNERS
Scouts of Science Seek Strange
Places of the Earth.
American Institutions Spend Vast
Sums In Exploration and Send
Their Men to the Darkest
Spots Of the Globe.

New York.-Up on the fifth or Office
floor Of the American Museum of
Natural History, just opposite the ele-
vators, is a bulletin board, on which
are painted fifty OF sixty names of
persons actively connected with the
institution, all of them well known
and many of them famous through
out the scientific world. Opposite
each name is a little movable block
Of wood which shows whether the
owned is in or out.
Inquiry discloses that some of the
"outs" are not far away, but that
many of them have been absent a
long time; that they are in the lonely
corners of the earth and that they
are not likely to be in for another
year or two. These scouts of science
come and go at long intervals, but
there are so many of them connected
with the museum that every month
or SO some one marks his departure
or arrival on the board.
AS a matter Of fact such lnstitu-
lions as the American Museum of Nat
ural History, the Field Museum in
Chicago, the National Museum at
Washington, and various European
institutions are doing the largest
share of the geographic exploration
of the earth just at present. The
plan that each follows is usually the
same.
First they send out one man alone,
or two together, to penetrate some
remote region about which nothing Is
known. This is really a scientific
scouting party. The instructions are
to move as quickly as possible, but
to make a thorough survey of the
scientific possibilities of the country.
When the scouts come back and re-
port thenaa large expedition is fitted
out, arrangements being made for it
to stay in the field several years. The
scouts do not accompany this ex-
petition. They are off on another
reconnaissance in some other distant
part Of the world.
Within the last year or so, for in
stance, the Museum of Natural His
tory sent E. o. Hovey to the West In
dies and thence to the Chihuahua dis
trict Of Mexico to study volcanoes. It
sent Henry E. Champion on three ex-
petitions to Tahiti and the South Sea
islands, and later to British Guiana
and Mount Roraima. Frank M. Chap

museum bird groups. he returned from
Colombia recently.
Just before Prof. Andrews started
on his scouting expedition after the
Corean tiger, the writer asked him
what he feared most In venturing into
a totally unknown, unexplored region.
Was 1t fever, or accident or hostile
natives. or all those things combined?
"The only thing l ever worry
about" replied Prof. Andrews, "is
whether 1 will get enough to eat or
not. On an expedition where you are
travelling alone with just the smallest
number of servants end going into a
region that you know nothing about,
you can take only a limited amount of
food. For the rest You have to rely on
the country.
"If you can't kill enough game or
catch enough fish, or find food in some
way, you're going to starve. If you
have plenty to eat, you needn't worry
about anything else. Broken legs,
sickness, hostile natives and so on
will come your way If it's down in the
books that they're going to. But, no
matter what else happens, you abso-
lutely must have plenty OF grub. II
you don't, then you've got something
big to worry about"
But whether a scout of science helps
the staggering dogs to draw the
sledge over snowy wastes or whether
he cuts his way through the jungles
of Java, the Moluccas or the Carolines,
he is always meeting some other
white man. Stefansson and Ander-
son encountered lone men of the
Royal Mounted Police north of the
most northerly forts of the Hudson's
Bay company.
So it is that on every world end
steamer they are likely to find some
one they know or who knows some
one they have met. Therefore, lone
ly as their lives are, they no sooner
set foot across the threshold of civil
ization again than they begin to pick
up the threads Of gossip and ad-
venture of others just where they
dropped them two or three or five
years back.

Shakespeare, still a bit excited over
the first performance of Hamlet"
you'll know that when the producer
wants a song in a scene, the song
goes in. Besides, this girl that's play

the public expected to hear her sing
somewhere in the piece. Let's go

These little accessories can be made

Divide the ribbon into three equal
parts and the elastic into two parts.
