DIARY OF FATHER TIME

In her desire to become an indus
trial nation Japan is apparently find
ing that the same price has to be
paid as in other countries. Country
folk are f1ocking to the towns, with
the. result that the national physique
is deteriorating. Townspeople are
generally frail in character and in
ferior in physique, as compared with
rural people. In 1908 the conscrip-
ton statistics showed that the towns
returned 80 per cent of first-class
conscripts against the 80 per cent of
rural districts. In 1911, out of 1000
privates in active service, 568 were
farmers, but this had dropped in
1912 to ISL.
The army authorities are now edu-
eating privates with the object of in.
ducing them to take to the land after
disbandment But the movement to-
ward the towns is a difficult one to

the blue minnows were loaded with
filaments of nettle from the singing
nettle fish. This singing nettle is
painful when eaten by the fish and is
religiously avoided by them.
When the blue minnows were
thrown overheard and snapped up by
the snappers they evidently disliked
the results of the singing nettle
which the minnows contained. After
several hours some more blue min
nows without singing nettle were
thrown in, but they were not
touched.
The gray snappers had commune
Gated with the whole school and
told them to avoid those blue min
nows, as they had something hot in
side. The red minnows were thrown
over as well as the white, and were
eaten voraciously by the gray snap
pers, but not a blue minnow was
touched.
The experiment was repeated the
next day and the following, with the
same results, namely, the snappers
remembered the blue minnows and
would have none of them.

STORY ABOUT SOME WISE FISH


That fish remember and have some
method of communicating with one
another, and that they have a sense
of color, being able to distinguish
blue from red and white is the result
of an interesting experiment just
tried by the professors at the Carne-
gle station located on the islands of
the Florida coast. The fish selected
for the experiment were a species of
gray snapper which live under the
piles of the piers.
The experiments began by tanning
a number of these fish by daily feed
ings of chopped fish and small min
nows dumped from the side of the
pier at regular periods during the
day. The fish learned that these
feelings took place at these times
and we're accustomed to hang around
for the food. They would dart out
and snap up the food as soon as it
was thrown into the water
The next step was to stain some
minnows red and others bright blue.
The red, blue and white minnows
were successfully thrown into the
water and were snapped up and
eaten by the gray snappers. Next

Fashions in Materials.

" PLAIN long sleeved corsage with
II seamless kimono shoulders was seen
in a New York shop recently. II was
cut out in a deep Y in front, was outlined
by a white lace Medici ruche and little
rolled back curved lapel Of black taffeta,
both caught together al the girdle top with
4 cabuch0n ornament. From this point a
black taffeta sash started passing around
TO the back and widened by q second turn
about the waist. One long separate end
hung from one side of the front 70 knee
depth.
Sprigged taffetas are sometimes com
bined with plain shanung or satin.
One model had an original sash. or
rather sashes, for there were really two.
both of the sprigged red taffeta used for
the frock. The upper girdle, swsthed
about the figure up 10 the bust line, was
placed above a narrow black velvet belt,
the lower edge tucking under il, and the
lower girdle was swathed about the fig
ure TO hip depth, the upper edge OF il
passing under the velvet belt, This gave
the effect Of a tremendously wide girdle
with a black velvet belt in the centre.

row girdle was blue, also the lining of the
corsage which reached up to just about
the bust. The front Of the corsage was
a filmy fichu crossing Of lace, and a
second covering was on bolero lines out

edges were wide open they combined in
charming fashion with the fichu lines.

Natural Waist Line Loses Favor.

Al OTHING is more distressing than to
IN zee a girlish figure CARRIED in styles
much too old for her youthful contour
For there are distinct style lines for the
junior figures that set off their too great
slenderness or their premature embon-
point
The natural waist line on such dresses
and suits is seldom in great favor, for il
usually cuts the figure into badly proper
toned halves: so either the waist line OF
Directoire depth or the long waist line
such as is used this season under the name
Of Balkan, is appropriate for the curves
Of youth.
From a French play comes a quaint
frock full Of youthful charm. Strongly
Directoire in style, 1t has also the new
skirt lines, scant at the back, with q
tendency to fulhess in the front Even
though this fulness is caught in at the
hem, one senses Il Is still there. The skirt
is made entirely o. one material, but in
front the stripes are pieated so that the
white stripe OF the batiste Is hidden and
only the red shows. which makes Il lool
ike a panel. Though the pleats OF the
front panel are unstltchod, they are. never
theless, caught down BY hand at the hem

Fresh from Paris.

N/OU can always tell the woman who
has just come back from Paris these
warm summer days. She has on all
the latest wrinkles of the Paris creators of
women's garb, and she looks curiously de-
tached from the rest of the feminine ele-
ment that finds itself mar2oned in the hot
city streets. Coming down town in a
street car recently was a pretty Amer
lean girl whose conversation showed

from top to toe in spite of her nationality,
and everything she had on was carefully
looked over by the other woman passen-
gers She wore a dark blue crepe de
Chine dress belted with crepe, but a sec
ond belt of lighter satin started at the
sides Of the crepe belt and, dropping at the
back. tied low with fringed ends. In the
deep pointed decollete of the corsage was
inserted a filmy white tulle surpice frill,
and the long crepe sleeves were finished
with a wide scant double frili of the same
tulIe. Her hat was one Of those new lit
tie Vatican shapes of dark blue velvet,
jammed down over the head and posed

coiffure of dark hair made deep wavy

veil had one little chenille spot that looked
like a mole. which threw into relief beau
tiful pink and white complexion. a blue
velvet sunshade had a handle that was
covered with velvet also. The black silk
stockings were in wide stripes made by

steel buckles. A black taffeta bag, en-
