sill tusks Of mammoths. which
died thousands of years ago, and
are now found in Siberia and
elsewhere, preserved in the froz-

The African elephants tusks
are the most esteemed. because
they are unusually hard and
white. The tusks Of the hippo
potamus are also used.
Man has never been able to
invent a substance that can full

piece Of ivory under a micro
scope is a very interesting object.
The average weight of a full
grown tusk is about so pounds,
but in exceptional cases it may
reach IFS pounds. There is one
pair of tusks in existence which
weighs, in the aggregate, $50
pounds. the weight Of one being
2S5 and that of the other 225
pounds.
The length and gIrth are very
variable. An eight-foo tusk is
regarded as notably large one.
but there are some in museums
measuring from ten TO over eIev-
en- feet. Some years ago Major
PoWell-Cotton shot an elephant
in the Congo whose tuslls
weighed, together. 372 pounds.
Sometimes the greatest circum-
ference OF q tusk may reach
nearly two feet.

but it is also used for pianoforte

things, and. in addition. the pig

In ancient times some of the

which were occasionally of gi-

the Parthenon. were made of al

resent the implication that Mr.
CapeIle makes that they are so
degenerate that they can not be
trusted to look upon nice girl in
lace trimmed shirtwaist, and
with her neat ankles incased in
openwork stockings, without be-
ing filled with unholy thoughts, to
say nothing Of their having to be
protected by law from the fatal
fascination Of wax dummies in

The Corrupt in Mind.
Irwin Cobb once defined a per-
feet gentleman as a man who
could say leg and think limb,
and that description holds good.
To the pure all things are pure,
and to the corrupt everything is
rotten. Mr.. Capelle's imagination
evidently belongs to the latter
class, and he would see evil in
innocence itself, though il we're
cloaked in a meal sack.
A woman once asked the great
Or. Johnson if he thought the
nude in art was immodest.
NO he replied, but the ques-
ton is"
The same comment may GER

hibit the wearing of decollete

Uses of Teeth.

our ordinary ideas about teeth

is no part OF an animals body
that serves so great a variety Of
purposes as the teeth. They are
used not only for Selling. tearing.
dividing. pounding o. grinding
food. uut also ION weapons of Of
Tense or defense. for aids In To-
,omotiou. for means OF anchorage.
for uprootius or cutting down
trees. for Instruments of transport
and for handling building mate
rials An these uses were noted
by the great naturalist owen.
The elephants tusks are. Of
course. examples Of teeth used as
weapons. but they also serve as
means Of transporting heavy
loads. The beaver uses its teeth
as cutting instruments. as We'll as

TT is one of the notable pecu-
liarities of reformers that
when they start out to make
the wcrld better they always
tackle the sins and weaknesses Of
others, and try to prohibit the
doing of things that they never do
themselves. They want to re-
form everybody but themselves.
It's men who possess nothing
but few hideous tubular gar
ments, and who are prevented by
custom from adjoining their per-
sons in fancy raiment, who are
forever trying TO regulate the way
that women dress.
The latest effort in this direc-
ton emanates from Ohio, where
Representative Louis 5. Capelle
has announced that it is his be-
lief that the immodesty of attire
worn by women on the streets is
the cause Of the great wave Of
immortality now sweeping over the
country
In order to stop the said wave
of immortality, Mr.. Capelle has
introduced a bill into the Legis-
lature that provides for COM
mission of three married men,
between the ages of 80 and so,
whose duties it shall be to pre-
scribe rules and regulations for
the designing and manufacture of
women's clothing, and prohibit
such styles and patterns of gar
ments as the commission, after a
hearing, shall deem to be detri-
mental to virtue or chastity"
Hose.
This would seem to be a pref
ty big order, calling for a wis
dom and judgment far exceed
ing the tabled acumen of Solo
mon. but Mr.. Capelle goes further
He decides upon the features of
the present fashion that he con-
siders detrimental to morals. and
specifies that there shall be no
display of transparent stockings
in public places" that no "un-
draped real or artificial figures
shall De displayed in department
stores" and he forbids the wear
ing OF any outer garment trim
med on. combined with lace, in
sertion, or any kind of embroid-
cry, mesh, or net. through which
the color or texture Of the skin
may be distinguished"
Also, he fixes a rigid dead
line for the low neck gown by
providing that not more than two
inches of the neck below the chin
shall be uncovered.
1t is hard to believe that a bill
Of this nature is needed in Ohio.
If it is, Mr.. Capelle has. in bu-
collie parlance. got the wrong pig
by the ear. II the women of Ohio
must go bundled up like mum
mics IN order not to tempt the
men il isn't the Women's clothes
that need reforming. II is the
morals of the men.

When a Bill S a Joke.

Time was when a woman in
tights on the stage was truly
shocking, but such costume is
just part of the spectacle now to
which we do not give a Second
thought nor a second glance. The
South Sea Island girl who wears
a sweet smile and a bead neck
lace is just as modestly attired,
according to the styles in her
country, as a Fifth Avenue dame
in a sealskin coat is, as judged
by the standards of her set.
The truth is that propriety is
in the eye of the beholder We
see in everything just what is at
the back of our own minds, and
those who find the present FASH
ions of tight skirts, and Dutch
necks. and peekaboo waists de-
moralizing need to do something
to correct their own moral OBJ
liquity of vision. It's their men,
tai attitude that's wrong, not the
styles.
OF course, any bill to regulate
women's clothes by law is a joke
Women dress to please men, aud
men are pleased with the way
that women dress. oil else women
wouldn't dress that way. The
normal, wholesome-m minded man
finds nothing to cavil at in the
present styles, or else his sweet
heart, his wife and his daugh-
ter wouldn't be going about in
pipes stem skirts and silk stock
ings and pumps.
The Ohio legislator would have
to seek further than women's
clothes for the source of immor-
ality.
