There is also a pale pink silk ribbon
surrounding the blouse below the bust
underneath the lace.
Medici collar blouses are not univer-
sally becoming, but there is decided
distinction and dignity about one OF
these blouses when the style can be
worn. The airy collar Of lace, rising
behind the neck, while the front OF the
neck is left bare. makes the oval Of the
face very delicate, but only the wo-
man with tiawless throat and rather
long one can stand the test OF the
Medici collar. No woman who has
square, athletic shoulders should at
tempt the style.
Tailored blOuses for wear with out
ing or travelling costumes are Of china
silk In white or white striped with pale
color. Such blouses hint at mannish
lines but they, TOO, are very fun, ana
the lower portion Is often set with
cording on a shoulder yoke. Collars
open in decided V, and sometimes
below the collar little pointed reyers
turn back over the dark crayat.
A decidedly smart neck finish can
be made with two lengths OF one OF
the full dotted net ruchings which are
sold by the yard. Get twice enough
to go about the neck of the frock. Join
the two pieces together with band
Of black velvet ribbon, arranging one
ruching to stand upright about the
neck. the other 10 go the other way.
The effect is graceful and easily pro-
duced.
An attractive double collar is part OF

Early watches had only one hand

Notions as to "Lost Arts"

Current tradition credits the ancients
with many lost arts" 1t is still com
mon to hear people say that means
unknown TO us must have been EN-
ployed TO erect the pyramids, that the
Damascus blade is beyond the power
of modern cutters and that the art of
hardening copper died with some little
brown Aztec.
In point of fact. larger stones than
any found in the pyramids have been
quarried in Maine. carried across the
sea and erected in buildings i'm Eng
land and France. If any one cared to
pay the cost there are plenty of con-
tractors who would build a replica of
the largest pyramid and would not
take so very long about 1t.
1t is doubtful whether Damascus
blade" will stand as much as a good
modern hand saw or the spring Of
cheap clock,
Copper can be hardened by modern
methods to equal any specimen that
has been left to us by the ancients
Many arts that are supposed to be lost
are simply abandoned because there
is no modern need of cultivating them,
and others are not even aband' ned.

Says Surgeons Waste Time While
Operating.

| Accordingto the March American Mag
azine, the new profession, scientific man
agement, is hot on the trail of surgeons.
Frank Gilbreth, one of the great scien-
tife management experts, is quoted in
The American article with saying that
scientific management, applied within
the time limit of the actual surgical op-
Grafton, will cut down the minutes dur
ing which a patient is under ether from
ten to thirty per cent. He has made
some interesting experiments and calcu-
lations which seem to substsntiate his
claim. Mr.. Gilbreth is also of the opin-
ion that hospitals are greatly in need OF
application of the principles of scientific
management. He saws that after being
accustomed to wide-awake. up-to-date
methods of efficiency in industrial plants,
hospitals seem to him like world where
men rub sticks together to get light.
He goes on to say:
Its a mystery to me why the medi-
cal men take themselves for granted as
the ones to manage a hospital. They
seem to think that training in a spec
ialty is a training in management. Moth
ing of the kind. Management is a spec
ialty. A doctors training is not of the
kind that would make him manager.
The surgeon is Just like the old-style
shop foreman-it's an instinct with him
to resent suggestions from anyone out
side the trade and ne wouldn't work IN
a plant where professional orders
OF instruction are tolerated. SO from the
standpoint of scientific management. the !
hospitals are back in the dark ages
