JeweIed Stockings Is Latest.

The celebrated lady Of Banbury Cross
apparently has set the fashion tor some
of the ornaments of the present. Bells
for use on the feet have not been adopt
ed, but the "clocks" on the stocking are
being superseded in Paris by ieweled de-
vices from which hang tasselS of pearls
and similar ornaments which swing with
the movements OF the wearer, and there
seems to be no reason why golden bells
should not be introduced.
The attention devoted to footwear is, OF
course, direct result of the new skirt,
which is narrower than ever and has to
be split TO permit movement at all.
In consequence a distinctive shoe is
looked upon as a necessity, says the
Standard, particularly for evening wear,
and cross gartering is being affected also
by some smart Parisiennes.
Pale pink, blue and gold evening shoes
are decorated with paste buckles and
have streamers of broad black velvet rib
bon, studded with brilliants, which are
crossed over the instep and wound around
the leg of the wearer, forming lattice
pattern on a pale groundwork OF silk.

NEW VOL. 48-No. n.
Concerning Sleep.

The food that nourishes us is essential
to life. but is no more essential than the
form OF rest we call sleep. Sleep is
mysterious thing; very little Is known
about the physical processes which cause
il. Il comes and goes like rising and
falling tide: We abandon ourselves with
glad relief to il at the end OF the day; il
renews our vigor both Of mind and Of
body, and if il fails for any calse, We fail
also in health and strength.
The question is often asked, "How
much sleep do need2" The answer is
not simple, for people differ in this re-
speet. Infants should sleep nearly all the
time, children should sleep more than
adults, and the young need more sleep
than the old. There are, however, some
aged persons in whom form OF cerebral
anemia causes an almost constant drow-
sineSs that doubtless helps TO prolong life.
In general, seven hours for men and eight
or more for women is very safe allow
anee.
More important than the exact time you
spend in bed is the regularity and sound
ness OF the sleep you get. People ase
astonishiugly indifferent 10 these matters.
Young people who wish TO enjoy social
dissipaiions until late at night often refer
to the case OF some famous man who
lived for years on four hours sleep and
accomplished marvels, but such young
people themselves rarely achieve any
thing bI, iritability, bad complexion and
laZineSs.
II is wise plan 10 20 to bed at regu-
lar and seasonable hour every night. The
bedroom should be dark, quiet and flood
ed with fresh. outdoor air. The bed
clothing should be light in weight, but
sufficient TO keep the sleeper warm.
Never draw the blankets over your head;
il necessary, protect il from the winter
cold by sleeping-hood.

Frogs As Weather Prophets.

Some German weather frogs are
recent acquisition now on view at the
Children's Museum of the Brooklyn In
stitute.
When children in Germany wish TO
know about the weather they consult a
little green frog that is kept in a glass Jar,
partly filed with water and also contain
ing a wooden ladder. When the frog IS
on the ladder il is sigu OF rain; when
in the water il indicates clear weather.
Sometimes. OF course. the frogs pre-
diction goes wrong, but this happens to
all weather prophets" said George Paul
Engelhardt, assistant curator at the mu-
scum. "But," said he, "the German
child's faith is pinned on belief handed
down through many generations, and,
after all, il is not without some founda-
ton.
This German frog, Hyla arborea, is one
of the handsomest of the tree frogs, and
of about the same size as the common
gray tree frog, Hyla versiculor, OF this
section. In general, its color may be
said to be bright leaf-green above, uni
form whitish beneath, with a purplish
band along each side Of the body, but
this color the frog has the power OF
changing so as to harmonic with its i'm
mediate surroundings, and il may be OF
varying shades between green and dark
gray.
In telling about il and other frogs Mr..
Engelhardt said: Frogs do not drink,
at least not in the way that other animals
do, but absorb moisture through the pores
of their skin. Moisture is, indeed, es-
sential TO their existence, and if confined
in a dry atmosphere they soon perish.
This skin on the under surface OF tree
frogs is very different from that OF water
frogs, for, instead Of being smooth, 1t is
covered with granular glands, pierced by
numerous pores through which the dew
or rain spread on leaves is rapidly alb
sorbed. Therefore. during rain, or when
the atmosphere is charged with mols-
ture, a condition ually preceding
storm, tree frogs ascend to the leaves oil
trees, while, when the air is dry and
there is no dew they are more frequently
found among low vegetation or on the
ground where the air is cool and moist.
Thus il can readily be seen how tree
frogs gained the reputation as weather
prognosticators." )"
AT the Children's Museum the weather
frogs are housed in an aquarium attrac-
lively arranged with moss and ferns. In
the late afternoon they become vociferous,
their call consisting OF loud "tack-iack-
tack" repeated in rapid succession. AT
such times the skin on the throat is great
ly inflated, forming sack nearly as large
as the body. 1t is OF interest to note that
the frogs appear just as comfortable when
resting against the vertical side OF their
polished glass house as they would be
on the rough bark Of tree, and Il is oi
still greater interest to see through the
glass that they are enabled to do so be-
cause of the possession of well-devel-
oped adhesive disks at the tip OF the
toes. Their food consists OF various in
sects, such as flies, moths and meal
worms, which. however, must be alive,
for the frogs refuse all dead matter.

A Prairie Dog Colony.

A prairie dog settlement in Colorado is
estimated to contain 500, 10000 inhsbi-
tants. Were the snakes, owls, rabbits,
lizards and horned toads which live with
the dogs TO be counted in, The popuia-
ton Of the place would reach the billion
mark.
The figures are moi strictly accurate,
for the government has never counted
these dogs in the census. But anyone
who has seen such city knows there
are over one hundred dogs 10 the acre,
and this city is one hundred and forty
miles long by fifty wide. containing e.
4SO, 200 acres.
They dig deep burrows with so many
chambers that the railroad which is being
put through their city viii have to destroy
a large number Of dogs and their homes
in order 10 avoid accidents from caying
in of tracks.
This city was founded centuries ago.
II has been known to be about its pres
eut size for fifty years. Families grow
rapidly and the young ones stay al home
I'LL there is not room enough for All anc
some are pushed out to dig homes Tor
themselves.
TEey live on four kinds OF food, cac-
tiis, roots Of wire grass, tender green
shoots Of sagebrush, and greasewood. ].
These are the only specimens Of plant
life found in the western deserts where
prairie dogs are native. In spite Of the
saneness OF their fare they manage TO
keep sleek and fat on food which ground
squirrel would consider starvation diet.

Dogs, Ancestry a Puzzle.

Naturalists and The world at large seem
TO generally accept the theory that the do
mestic dog is, in some sense, collateral
descendant OF the wolf or jackal, says
Harper's Weekly. A professor in the
Natural History Museum OF Paris has COM
municated results OF his study Of various
canine skulls to the Academy OF Sciences.
He appears to have noticed certain Pc
culiarites OF growth which have hitherto
escaped BIOLOGISTS.
He states that the skull Of almost every
species Of wolf and jackal differs from the
skull of the shepherd dog to an extent
that makes il impossible that this dog
should belong in the same classification.
The skull OF the Indian wolf, on the con-
trary, shows some points Of resemblance.
This, indeed. is the only savage canine
the top Of whose head projects like that
Of our dog.
There are, moreover, other character
istics which the Indian wolf has in COM
mon with the dog, and which the ordina-
ry wolf does not share with them, al
though his origin and that of the dog
have long been supposed TO be a common
one.
The conclusion Of This scientist is that
the Indian wolf is the progenifor Of the
shepherd dog and the bloodhounds.
There were two primitive races Of dogs
analogous TO these which were first do
mesticated in Genial Asia, whence they
passed to Europe, and there seems no
reason TO doubt that the bloodhound Of
today is the direct descendant Of The dog
spoken OF by the ancients as "the dog Of
the age Of bronze"
