There's one safe, sure, and painless

That is, for each one TO expend all his

In our grandmother's day, before a
frock could get frayed, shabby, or In
any wise unseemly, they used TO re-
fashion it-'make 1t over" They
achieved real triumphs, too-back

and the whole thing reversed-that Ii,

turned out.
This procedure applied especially to
Sunday silks, mohairs, lutestrings,
poplins, cashmeres, and brocades.
And you wouldn't believe, IL told, how
many years best" frock served,
adequately and honorably.
Pesides, there was the remodelling
OF elders garments to At out the little
folks. with whom the acquisition OF
whole really-truly new suit was so un-
usual as TO constitute a memorable
event.
When one thinks OF the love and
care that went into this refashiohing,
and how snug and safe they fitted the
soul needs of little chaps, and the Joy
mothers had in the work, nobody can
pity either party to the transaction.
But ways change as days change,
and We must keep pace with the
times. Nowadays nobody willingly
tolerates a last seasons frock or a
remodeled one, and while there's
much waste that soon or late We all
must suffer and pay for, still, IL our
mental and physical habits harmon
lie We are. as Dooley says, all right,

But do they? Seems like most folks

Flies from London to Paris,

PARIS, March 7.-Henry Salvey,
the French aviator, arrived at
Issy LES Moulineaux, q suburb OF
Paris, IN his monoplane today,
having travelled from London with
out stop. He covered the distance
of about 222 miles in two hours and
81 minutes.
Salvey said that having urgent
business to transact in Paris and
seeing that the London.to-Paris train
and steamboat service was affected
by the coal strike, he had decided to
make voyage through the air in spite
of the unfavorable weather.
Salvey nayigated his monoplane by
the compass. He travelled at an aver
age height Of 5000 feet and generally
was above the clouds, only OCCASION
ally catching glimpses of the land or
sea. His extraordinary speed under
the circumstances is explained by the
fact that his machine was pushed
along by q strong breeze from the
northwest, which will be unfavorab
to his progress on his return trip to
London, on which he started this
evening.

Now it is Amundsen.

CHR1sTIANIA Norway, March. g.
Two local newspapers received dis
patches today from Captain Raold
Amundsen announcing that he had
reached the south pole on December
IA, 1911. The dispatches were sent
from Hobart, Tasmania, and read:
"Pole reached 14.l7 December"
This evidently means that he re-
mained three days in the vicinity OF
the pole, probably to take accurate
observ ations of his position.
Rejoicing over Captain Amund-
sens success in reaching the south
pole is widespread over Norway to.
day. The feeling was voiced in the
storthing by the president, Frederick
Konow, who said, amid cheers of the
member
"We cannot begin our days work
without expressing our thankful Joy
and the admiration and pride with
which we are filled by the news that
Captain Robert Amundsen and his
comrades have reached the south pole
and planted the Norwegian flag there.
"We are proud in the thought that
these men are our fellow countrymen
and that they have succeeded once
more in covering the name Of Norway
with glory.
The storthing then cabled greetings
and thanks to Captain Amundsen at
Hobart.
