BROCHURES SHIRT FROM TREE
Native of New Granada Has Little
Trouble Securing Garment Suit
able for His Needs.

1t is comforting at least to know
that the sad Song of the Shirt" does
not apply to all parts of the world.
In the forests OF GTonoho, situated CO
the slope Of New Granada, nature has
provided what serves as a ready-made
shirt for the natives. 1t is obtained
from the marina tree, a species OF
tropical palm, which a a thin,
fibrous red bark. When a native
wants a shirt he simply cuts a piece
Of one Of these trees about Is inches
in diameter and takes of the bark,
managing so as not to cut 1t in any
way, and thus obtains a hollow cylin-
der of flexible bark, somewhat re-
sembling a rough sack without n
bottom. He then makes a small slit
in each side for his arms to go
through and puts it IN. 1t is only
during the rainy season. however. that
natives conform to the requirements
Of civilization sufficiently to wear gar
ments of any description.

Fashionable Feathers

Feathers have seldom had such a
vogue as this season, and never before
have they appeared in such various
form and fascinating colors.
Those used for haiTmounts are par
ticularly beautiful, and they are much
larger than any that have hitherto
been used. A highly artistic touch Is
given by the careful tinting Of these
feathers, and now for the first time
plumes may be obtained In all colors
of the rainbow. Uncurled feathers
are just as fashionable as curled tips,
and a very dainty feature Is the ap-
plication Of a velvet ribbon along the
stem of plumes TO match the shade
of the tips.

Crochet Hint.

In crocheting an edge on a towel
or dolly, it is usually difficult the first
time around TO introduce the crochet
hook; there is danger not only OF
splitting the threads but also Of the
hooks slipping and piercing the fin
GER. This diff Guilty may be overcome
by using a coarse (No. 81 needle I'M
threaded, and stitching on the ma,
chine around the dolly with a short
stitch about three sixteenths Of an
inch from the edge. Then the GRO
chet-hook can be inserted in the holes
without any difficulty.

A harmless and effective perspira-
ton deodorizer can be easily prepared
at home from the following ingredi-
ents, which are to be had at any drug
gist: One part salicylic acid and three
parts boric acid. Mix thoroughly and
put in a fat powder box. Use a wool
or a piece of absorbent cotton in
applying it. 1t is quite harmless and

rage for black velvet has been SO
fierce n SO overwhelming that it was
impossible to resist it. Black velvet,
black plush, black broche-these a

said to be the materials OF the sea

put up an ingenious fish trap, for there
were no game wardens in those days.
That trap, repaired and strengthened
from time to time, was inherited by
white men who followed the Indians
