CANAL PROPHECIES.

The matter Of the Valparaiso harbor
improvements is another aspect Of the
American influence in Chilli This coun-
Try originally did not look with favor on
the construction Of the canal by the
United States. There was a political
phase Of the matter which need not now
5e reyamped. There was also the eco
lomic phase. which was more serious.
Chill. or a good many Chilians, really
believed that the canal would have al
adverse effect on the commerce OF the
country and would seriously divert trade.
Punta Arenas. the metropolis Of the
Strait of Magellan. was then free port
and benefited by it's position at the ut
.ermost end of the continent. 1t served
he vessels from Europe and the United
States which came up to this coast, as
well as those on the route TO Australia
and New Zealand and other parts OF ;he
world The assumption was that all this
shipping would cease.
Reflection changed this pessimistic opin-
ion somewhat, especially when IT was
realized that after the canal was opened
many of the steamship companies would
send their ships through the canal and
back by way of the strait, or vice versa
Yet there is expected to be some loss OF
the Australian traffic, and while Punta

GOOD DEFINITION OF "CHlC"
Visiting Eneishman Well Describes
the Elegant Women Who Are the
Pride of New York.

Lord Morley, at a luncheon at the
Ritz-Carlton in New York, said of the
American woman:
The American woman as she
glides in her motorcar down Fifth
avenue, or as she hurries from her
jewelers. to Sherry's, is perhaps the
most elegant woman in the world.
Fifth avenue Is perhaps the most
elegant street in the world. Broad
and straight, bordered with splendid
shops and hotels of pale stone,
drenched with sunshine and rooted
with a luminous blue sky, Fifth ave
nue. is 2 fitting promenade for Ameri-
cas- beautiful women
But these women dress. perhaps, a
little too boldly for the street. Take,
for example, their tight gowns with a
slit at the side-a slit through which
advances and retreats a slim foot in
a patent leather shoe and supple
ankle in a gossamer silk stocking
This is perhaps too overwhelming a
costume for street wear.
Yet in such a costume the Ameri-
can woman is undoubtedly chic. And
this raises the question: What is
CHIEF"
Lord Morley paused and smiled.
Then he continued:
Chic, l would reply. is the art of
wearing a bold gown modestly.'

to the hands of libertist and COM
poser in the Greek tragic story OF
Icarus, who was killed while attempt
ing flight, and it is on this ancient
legend that the aviation opera, which
was produced at Nice recently, was
based. The author of the lbretto, M.
Henri Cain, shows Icarus in the cen
ter Of the maze constructed by his
father, Daedalus. Despising the
allurements of nymphs and maids,
the youth makes pair of wings with
the feathers of an eagle and tries to
f. from the top Of cliff. In the tinal
scene, in which Icarus dies from his
fall, the genius of science appears
and in vision shows him the fins.

To show how the opera is identified
with modern aviation it may be added
that the music was composed by Nj.

NOVELTY IN HAIR PIN CASE
Travelling Accessory That Will Be
Found Most Convenient Is
Easily Made.

A hair pin case of linen made in en-
velope or pocket shape is little traV'
cling accessory that can be quickly
made and will be found convenient.
A small piece of either blue or pink
linen should be used. Fold up end
of strip of line about five inches and
buttonhole the two thicknesses Of the
linen together. Fold the other piece
of linen over the pocket as flap and
buttonhOle the edge.
Divide the envelope into sections by
rows of feather stitching. This little
linen hair pin envelope can be readily
Numbered when sOiled
The initials of the owner should be
embroidered on the flap Of the envel-
ope with white mercerized cotton,
which should also be used for tina
scalloping.

lnprovlsed Wardrobe.

A wardrobe that will do very well
may be made from eight soap boxes
of equal size. The boxes should be
nailed together, standing on end, with
the openings facing front. The width
of the closet should be that OF two
boxes. making the height that of four.
On the right-hand side knock out the
shelves entirely, to allow for hang
ing clothes, and put Il pole across for
skirt hangers, or insert hooks. The
opposite side may be used for hats or
smaller articles. Hang a cretonne
curtain in front to keep out the dust,
and paint the top and sides any de-
sired color

CHAPTER xyIl.-continued.

l.
Although Gloria had professed that
she had no fear about being left with
the sick woman. when she said it she
had in mind only fear of being alone
in such a dismal lodging house and
fear that she might be called upon to
act as doctor and trained nurse both
were her patient to take a turn for the
worse. Now, however, a new thought
came TO her How was she to act?
What was she to do to amuse her?
She felt instinctively the antipathy
she had aroused. She covered like a
lamb before this young she-wolf Of the
city. She was alone, defenseless. with
this creature that had SO far reverted
to type that she might rend and tear
Even in a battle of wits, and that was
all there would be If the girl did not
jgnore her entirely, Gloria felt her
self no match for this brazen child OF
misfortune. Her comparisons were
physical, but it was not a physical
fear she felt. Sheltered inexperience
was pitted against the most cruel ex-
perience society could ever devise or
tolerate

CANADA WINS AGAIN
This Time at the international
Soil Products in Oklahoma.

Last year and the year before, and
the year before that, the farm prod
ucts Of Western Canada carried off
first premiums. championships and
nonours, together with medals and d.
plomas, feats that were likely to give
swelled head TO any other people
than those who had so much more be-
hind. At Columbus. Ohio. and then
again at Columbia, North Carolina, a
farmer OF Saskatchewan carried off
the highest prize for oats, and in an.
other year, will become the possessor
of the $500 Colorado Trophy; anoth.
er farmer made two successful ex-
hibits Of wheat at the biggest shows
In the United States: another farmer
of Manitoba won championships and
sweepstake at the live stock show In
Chicago, and this year expects to du-
plicate his successes OF last year.
These winnings are the more credita-
bic as none of the cattle were ever fed
any corn, but raised and fattened on
nature grasses and small grains
At the Dry Farming Congress held
at Lethbridge In 1912, Alberta and
Saskatchewan, farmers carried of
the principal prizes competing with
the world. The most recent winnings
of Canada have been made at Tulsa.
Oklahoma, where seven OF the eigh-
teen sweepstakes rewards at the In
ternational Soil Products Exposition
were taken by Canada in competition
with eleven states.
The chief prize, a thrashing ma
chine, valued at $1,000 for the best
bushel of hard wheat, went to Peter
Gerlack of Allan, Saskatchewan. Mon
tana took four Of the sweepstakes,
Oklahoma four, and Nebraska two.
Russia sent one delegate, Spain
had two, Belgium three, China four,
Canada fifty, Mexico five, Norway one,
Brazil three.
In the district in which the wheat
was grown that won this prize, there
were thousands of acres this year that
would have done as we'll Mr.. Gerlack
is to be congratulated as we'll as the
Province Of Saskatchewan, and West
ern Canada as a whole for the great
success that has been achieved in
both grain and tle.-Advertisement

All the summer amber beads have
