Winter hats will have a choice of bios
SONS for their adornment in variety OF

be specially made 10 suit the weather.
Rainproof roses will be seen and artifi-
cial flowers will be created in fabrics
immune from the onslaught of fog or
snow.
In order that the flowers shall have an
appropriate setting there will be change

Feathers Versus Flowers.

The rage for feathers. which has mark
ed the summer millinery, has given a
serious setback to the artificial flower
industry, and an attempt is to be made
to Introduce f1ower-decked hats In the
coming winter
At the beginning of the season many
attempts were made to popularZe floral
millinery fashions. but women insisted on
having feathers or perky bows OF ribbons
for the adorrfment Of their headwear. Al
kinds of beautiful blossoms were intro
duced in colors true TO nature and in col
ors unknown to nature, with the object
of Turing women back to their old al
legiance to the fower-decked summer
hat. but women would have none oi
them.
Feathers or nothing at all, that was
the decision, and flowers were releGated
to the top shelf.

ShaklnQ Hands.

Did you ever ask yourself why you
shake hands with persons whom you
know? Here is the reason:
In the old days. when every man
who had any pretensions to being a
gentleman carried sword. 1t was Gus.
tomary for men when they met to
show that they had no intention of
treachery to offer each other their
weapon hands, that is. the hand that
would be used to draw the sword, and
to withhold the hand was usually the
signal for a fight.
So fixed did this habit become that
long after men ceased to wear swords
they still offered the weapon hand to
a friend and declined to offer 1t to an
enemy. To this day when you refuse
to shake hands with a person it sig
nifies that you are at war Among
savages. who never carried swords,
the practice Of shaking hands is un-
known, and 1t affords them amuse-
ment to see the white men do it.

Protective CoIors,

Have you ever stopped to question
why some caterpillars. snakes. wasps
and butterflies are black and yellow
in color? Or black and white? These
colors are the danger signals of ma
ture. In order to protect themselves
from birds which feed upon them, the
creatures named have taken this form
of dress which frightens away their
enemies. Other creatures take on the
colors of their surroundings SO that
one scarcely can detect them from
the trees. the grass, or the ground,
wherever they happen to live.
