PRETTY HOMEMADE EFFECT
Strings Of Beads or Pearls May Be
Put Together With Little Trouble
and Almost No Time.

Beadwork is always fascinating and
one cannot help admiring many pretty
articles displayed in the shops. Skill
full fingers can easily duplicate these
at home with little trouble or ex-
pense.
A bandeau of pearls for the dance
can be made by stringing the beads
on fine wire. Measure the head from
ear to ear and string two strands of
pearls, making the front strand four
beads longer than the back. Bring
both strands together at the ends,
thus shaping the bandeau.
Fill in the band with strands OF
beads forming a lattice-work design
To make two large fat ornaments for

form tasseis and attach to the round
ornaments.

must build up trade, especially FOR
eign trade. We need the outlet and
the enlarged field Of energy more
than we ever did before. We must
build up industry as well and must
adopt freedom In the place Of arti-
fetal stimulation only so far as 1t will
build, not pull down. In dealing with
the tariff the method by which this
may be done will be a matter Of judg-
ment, exercised item by item.
To some not accustomed to the ex-
elements and responsibilities of
greater freedom our methods may in
some respects and at some points
seem heroic, but remedies may be
heroic and yet be remedies. 1t Is our
business to make sure that they are
genuine remedies. Our object Is clear
II our motive is above just challenge
and only an occasional error Of judg
ment is chargeable against us, we
shall be fortunate.
We are called upon to render the
country a great service In more mat
tiers than one. Our responsibility
should be met and our methods should
be thorough, as thorough as moderate
and we'll considered based upon the
facts as they are, and not worked out
as IL we were beginners. We are to
deal with the facts of our own day,
with the facts of no other, and to
make laws which square with those
facts. 1t is best, indeed 1t Is neces-
sary, to begin with the tariff. l will
urge nothing upon you now at the
opening of your session which can OBJ
scure that first object or divert our
energies from that clearly defined
duty. At later time may take the
liberty Of calling your attention to re
forms which should press close upon
the heels of the tariff changes, II not
accompany them, of which the chief
is the reform of our banking and cur
rency laws; but just now l refrain.
For the present, put these matters
on one side and think only of this one
thing-of the changes in our fiscal
system which may best serve to open
once more the free channels Of pros
perity to a great people whom we
would serve to the utmost and
throughout both rank and file.

1t May Be the Original
Narrative of the
Deluge

Possibly here is to be found
the original of that tradition
which has arisen again and again
among all peoples, in all ages, of
a cataclysmic deluge, destroying
by wholesale the sons of men
because they had blindly offend
ed the Ruler of the Universe.
And in that case, how otherwise
should we regard those islands,
now supposed to be projecting
points of submerged Atlantis,
than as the Ararats of that
doomed land?
The San Francisco call., 1913-11-05
The Stepping Stone Be-
tween Old and New
Worlds

This fact is regarded as indi-
eating that the islands in ques-
ton once formed part of con-
tinuous continent, which was
either directly connected with
southern Europe or northern
Africa by bridge of land, or lay
so close to them that animals
and plants could easily cross
over the intervening strip of sea.
Moreover, there are living in
these islands species of plants
and animals which once existed,
but now exist no longer, in Eu-
rope, where their remains are to
be found in deposits of the ter
tiary age. The explanation
would seem to be that these
plants and animals lived contem-
poraneously in Europe and the
continent of Atlantis during ter
tiary times, but have since be-
come extinct IN Europe, although
they continue to exist on the
islands which are the only visible
remains of Atlantis.
But there is another curious
fact to be considered. The liv-
ing species inhabiting these mys-
terious islands not only resemble
those of southern Europe and
northern Africa, but also those
of the West India islands and
Central America. This suggests
that the continent of Atlantis
extended completely across the
ocean and was connected with
America on the west.
Atlantis, then, was as closely
associated with the New World
as with the Old and formed a
means of communication be-

Unparalleled Calamity Put
an End to All
Life

The ups and downs of the
earth's crust have been many in
the course of the geological
ages, and one of the greatest
authorities of the present day,
the German professor Suess, has
declared in advance that he sees
no reason why parts of the
ocean, or even the dry land, may
not tomorrow sink to form new
depths. Suess even thinks that
Greenland may be one OF the
remnants of. an ancient conti-
nent which occupied large part
of the Atlantic basin, and which
could have been no other than
that tabled land of Atlantis,
echoes of whose vanished glories
were yet vibrating in human ira
dition in the days of Plato
These things carry the irnagi-
native mind to the depths of
the sea and call up pictures of
the marvels that might be dis
covered there if the ocean could
be dried up, or if means could
be found for exploring its pro-
fundities in submarine vessels as
perfect as that which Jules
Verne's Captain Memo con-
structed.
They also summon up. an awful
vision of the unparalleled calam-.
ity that put an end to the life of
an entire continent. Not only
palatial cities, vast cultivated
lands, forests, roads, fields, gar
dens, villages, but whole hills,
valleys and mountain chains
were swallowed together by the
universal thrush of the whelm-
ing watersl The more splendid

ton of the inhabitants of At
lantis, the more terrible appears

wrath" when they felt the solid
ground dissolving beneath them
and when the whole earth
seemed, to be sinking down.

THE missing continent of At
1antis, whose extraordinary
story, as told by the Greek
philosopher, Plato, is at once a
fascinating romance and the
greatest of geographical mys-
teries, has again become the sub
ject of learned discussion.
Was there or was there not
formerly continent in the midst
of the Atlantic ocean, If it sank
suddenly under the waves, with
all its splendid cities, as the ira
ditions gathered by Plato de-
clared, are any traces of it now
to be found on the bottom of the
sea? In the light of modern sci
ence, is it possible to admit that
a catastrophe of such unexam-
pied magnitude as the swallow
ing up of a whole continent
could occur?
These are some of the ques-
tions reawakened by the investi-
CATION of the subject which M. L.
German has recently published
in the "Annales de Geographic"
The clew to the mystery that
M. German follows is that
which is furnished by the exist
ence of the island groups of the
Canaries, the Madeiras, Cape de
Verde and the Azores. These
islands lie in deep water near the
place where Plato said Atlantis
existed. Although they are wide
ly separated, they possess plants
and animals of the same species,
and these species are similar to
those found in southwestern
Europe and northern Africa, but
entirely different from those of
equatorial Africa.

tween them. Here, perhaps, is
the explanation of the singular
rcsemblances of the arts and
ideas of the vanished people who
built the ruined cities of Central
America and those of the ancient
inhabitants around the shores
of the Mediterranean sea and in
the land of the Nile. Atlantis
was a kind of common ground,
or meeting place, for the prede-
cessors of these various peoples.
