RadIum Market Closed.

The European war has, for the pres
ent at least, totally closed the Euro
pean market to American radium ores.
AS is we'll known, the uranium ores of
Colorado and Utah are sold exclu-
sively for their radium content, so lit
tie use being known for the uranium
that the ores cannot be sold for their
content OF that element. The condi.
tion Of the European market leaves
the miners without buyer; SO that
while the war lasts, and probably for
some time afterward. the market will
be restricted and without the benefit
Of competition. AS has been pointed
out by Secretary OF the Interior Lane,
had the bills introduced in congress
been passed the United States govern
ment would probably have been In the
market as a buyer, and the miner
might now have a chance to sell his
ore.

NOT APPROVED BY SCIENCE
Existence of "Brain Waves" as Popu
larly Understood, Has Never
Been Established.

Sir Ray Lancaster, who has been a
diligent student of telepathy, now ar
rives at the conclusion that the so
called brain waves" of which the to-
lepathist talks. have no foundation in
science. According to him, we know
nothing of the existence of such waves
and are absolutely devoid of the means
of establishing them. The chief diff.
Guilty lies in the fact that those who
seem to believe in them most implic'
lilly are unable to so much as haz.
ard guess as to the material in
which they occur.
The physicist who teaches the ex.
istence of light waves affirms at the
beginning that they are waves of the
ether. In holding to sound waves he
explains that they are waves Of the
atmosphere. To say that sound and
light are waves and at the same time
to be unable to declare the substance
of which those waves consist would
be to leave sound and light unex-
planned; and Sir Ray holds that like
inference is to be drawn from the
brain-wave explanation of telepathy.
But granting the existence of such
waves, he proceeds to ask by what
means they are received, and obtains
no answer. AS far as present day
science goes there is no detector in
the brain by which they may be re-
ceived, and no mechanism to trans
form them into sensible form. Neither
is there a code between man and man
whereby the thoughts conveyed are
to be made ineligible as the Morse
alphabet transforms the dots and
dashes of the telegraph key into
words
The possibility of telepathy is not
denied. The noted scientist simply
takes the ground that at the present
stage of knowledge, If brains do COM
municate with each other Immediately
and over long distances, it is by some
other method than that of the sup
posed brain waves"

G TIMULATED by that special In
- spiration which seems to come to
the help Of the designer Of trousseaus.
the maker OF the motor bonnet and
coat pictured here has distinguished
himself. All brides, and other fair
ladies', who elect to go a,motoring in
crisp weather, will only need to copy
this cold.weather outfit to assure
themselves OF comfort. One need not
look twice to see how very attractive
1t is.
The heavy, enveloping coat OF lib
cline Is cut on rather straight lines,
fiaring enough to be roomy and ample.
The straight sleeves are large enough
to be easily slipped on, and finished
with turnback cuffs and a huge OBJ
long bone button. The wide, square
collar is arranged to button up about
the neck and roll over, or to lie fiat
over the shoulders, according to the
desire Of the wearer. The coat fastens
n little to one side Of the front with
large bone buttons.
There is a good range Of heavy
cloths to choose from for coats Of this
character. It includes boucle cloth

body more style and are cut on sim

several seasons. One cannot expect to
get better results in made-to-ordel
coat than those to be found in the dis
plays of reliable houses showing mo-
tor and sports coats.
Heavy cloths, pushes, satin and
novelty weaves are used for rIotor
bonnets. Practically all of them have
soft puffed crowns. That in the picture
is of satin, with warm interlining and
thin silk lining. At the front lined
band of uncut velvet is trimmed in
points. A frill of plated satin falls
like a cap about the face.
The very long chiffon veil Is shirred
into a cap that wells the satin crown.
But there is ample length to bring the
ends over the face, around the neck,
and to tie them in front. so affording
ample protection.
Braid and button ornaments make
just the right finish for this excep-
tionally fine motor bonnet.
