LEGION OF HONOR GIVEN
TO FRENCH DRESSMAKER

The French government upon the
recommendation of the minister OF
commerce. has decorated with the
Legion of Honor one of the leading
women dressmakers of Paris. II APP
pears that Az per cent. of the popula
ton Of France is employed in gar
ment making, and this industry is
recognized as a great source of ma
tional wealth. The woman in ques-
ton comes under the class of cap
tains of industry" and it is in recog-
milton of her creative work in or
ganizing her business that the gov
ernment has thus honored her.
The creative dressmaker in France
is now protected legally If her ideas
are stolen. She must, however, prove
that her general idea. and not alone
details of design. have been appro-
priated by a rival To insure such
protection a copy of all dress models,
together with adequate descriptions,
must be deposited in the French
patent office. When this has been
done she may bring suit for infringe
ment OF her patented" dress.

MEXICAN CITY
PAVED WITH GOLD

Recently an American mining en-
gineer was looking over some aban-
doned gold smelters in Mazapil. an
old Mexican town buried in the
mountains. When ne returned to
civilization he carried with him sew
eral bricks from the buildings Of
Mazapil and some samples of Stag,
which he turned over the the com
pany assayer.
The mining engineer had suspected
that with the crude mining opera
tions in vogue at the time of the
former operations there would be
some loss in extracting the gold from
the ore, but he was hardly prepared
for the assayer's report, stating that
the bricks and Stag ran nearly $500
to the ton. gold. silver and copper.
He reported the matter to his COM
pany and a quiet investigation was
ordered when ii was ascertained
that the assayer's figures were not
exaggerated in the least and that the
streets of Mazapil were literally
paved with gold and silver.-Chicaso

TALLY FASHION TALKS
A SMART FROCK FOR THE
SCHOOL GIRL
BY MAY MANTON

New frocks for the school girl make
a very important question just now.
and new designs for them are much
in demand. This exceptionally pretty
frock will be found most satisfac-
tory from every standpoint. II is
simple and easy to make, it is com
Portable to wear and it is both smart
and becoming. There is deep shaped
yoke in both front and back, and be-
low this yoke the dress is laid in wide
side plaits that give long lines and
provide fulness for the skirt. for they
are released a few inches below the
waistline. The sleeves are in one
piece each. and are Joined to the arm
hole in the "set-in' style. In this
case they are finished with cuffs, but
they can be made without the cuffs
or they can be cut off at the elbows
and left loose, as in the small view.
The long sleeves are laid in plaits al
the wrists. The sailor collar can be
made with the fronts illustrated OF
with square corners. In the Illus
tration blue chambray is trimmed
with white and with braid, and that
combination makes an extremely
serViceable and pretty frock. Linen
would be pretty either in white or in
color. White linen or pique. with
collar and cuffs of blue, would be
very attractive. Pongee with trim
ming of brown or red would make a
very smart little dress for travelling
Linen in the natural color, trimmed
with white and worn with red
patent leather belt, would make
a good school dress. The pattern in
cludes belt. and belts of the ma
terial are much worn, but many
mothers prefer those of patent
leather. and the latter are equally
smart.

Birds as Sewers.

The following is taken from the
current issue of Farm and Fifeside:
"A Scotch investigator has just com
pleted a most interesting study of the
contents of birds claws. The food Of
a large number killed in February
consisted chiefly of seeds and the
fruits Of wild plants and weeds. But
most interesting of all was the dis
covery that, with the exception Of
corn. all seeds found in all parts Of
the intestines were in perfect condi-
ton and were not a source of nour-
ishment. In other words, they are
excreted in a state favorable TO ger
mination and growth. The wonderful
service which birds have, without
question. done for agriculture in dis
serninating the seeds of agricultural
plants and trees all over the face
of the globe wherever birds fly
should not be marred by the charge
that weeds also have been scattered.
After all, who let the weeds so TO
sesd?"

Of influence. consider the position of
a busy superintendent or manager Of
a department store in n large city; or
the chief of an office in which from
fifty to u hundred clerical workers
are employed. He has a vacancy or
two. His office is besieged by appli-
eants. Here are girls who may be
Intelligent conscientious and capable,
but during their interview they are
SO conscious. so nervous. that
they give the impression of lacking
confidence in their own ability. There
are other girls. possessed. guavc
takers. confident in their bearing.
The man wonders whether this as
surance comes from efficiency or con-
ceit. and whether the suavity covers
a form of deceit which employers of
female help dread. The reference
offered by both groups of girls are all
from persons whom he does not know,
says Anna Steese Richardson. in the
Woman's Home Companion.
Epon his INDIGESTION comes a girl,
quiet, neat. neither over-confldent
nor nervous, bearing q letter of intro
duction from a personal or business
friend whose word this superinten-
dent respects. With a sigh of relief,
the driven employer accepts without
question the recommendation Of his
friend, gives the girl the desired OPP
portunity and dismisses the horde Of
applicants.
To him the letter of recommended
ton represented saving of time and
energy both of which are valuable 10
him and his firm. Other girls, wait
ing In the outer office, might develop
into better workers. but how does he
know this? And testing out new
employee is often a slow and ex-
pensive experiment for his firm. The
girl with the letter Of introduction
represents to a certain extent a tested
or known quantity. This Is one form
Of influence which is worth while,
provided only that the girl who con-
mands it lives up to the recommends
ton.
