One Hundred Years Ago.

The curious modes which women az
feet now began as far back as 1898,
which is a period we should hardly
wish to copy in most respects. A
dance not at all unlike the tango was
in vogue at that time, and had many
opponents, who danced in loose bod
ices opening in V shape from the
shoulders almost to the waist. Skirts
were slit and were often made of
transparent gauZe.
We may return to the gowns of that
period, which were without waists,
having simply a girdle to the bust,
with skirts caught up rather short in
front and slightly trained at the back.
In 1900 women wore sandals and
bare feet Corset belts were only
about two inches wide. Some gowns
were caught up to the knee with large
canoes. Soon fashion overreached it.
self, and then came crinolines, pointed
footgear and unnaturally small waists.
Are we coming to this?

Doll Too Much Like Baby.

This is true story: There is little
girl on the East side of New York to
whom a beautiful woman wanted to
give doll. The woman brought the
little girl into her luxurious home one
day and put into her arms a doll
such doll as Is popularity supposed to
be dear to the hearts of little girls
who live on the East side. But the
little girl drew back with an ugly
scowl. She didn't want the doll, and
she said so. The beautiful woman
thought her very ungrateful child
1t was not until some time after
ward the little girl explained. She'd
always had babies to take care of, she
said. She'd had them to lug around
with her almost as soon as she was
able to walk. She loved them, of
course, but at play time--when there
was such q thing as play time-she
really didn't want doll 1t was too
much like the babies.

lIdht Humor.

In the latter half of the eighteenth
century one of the members Of a little
scientific society in Liverpool, Eng
land, laid curious wager. He bet a
brother scientist that he would read a
newspaper by the light of farthing
dip at a distance Of 80 feet. The B.
S., finding the feat diff cult at even a
sixth of the distance, cheerfully ac-
copied the wager.
The layer merely coated the inside
OF shallow wooden box with sloping
pieces Of looking glass, so as to form
a concave lens. placed it behind his
farthing dip, and readily deciphered
the small print at the stipulated dis
lance.
The experiment was witnessed by a
Liverpool dock-master. He was a
thinking man, and saw great possibili-
ties in this learned jest. He straight
way adapted the principle to light
house requirements, and forthwith the
modern reflected light, with it's miles
of reflected range and untold life-sav.
ing powers, sprang into being.

SALVAGE FROM LOST SHIPS
specie in Quantity Has on Occasions
Been Recovered From the Victims
Of the Oceans Fury.

Although the chances of being able
to do SO are considered doubtful, since
she lies in IL fathorns of water, the
Canadian Pacific railway has not
abandoned all hope Of relocating the
Empress of Ireland. At any rate, every
effort will be made to recover the
100000 worth Of silver, In 1913 bags,
which is still in the specie room of the
sunken liner
The most notable salvage of silver
during recent years was made after
the Oceana sank in the channel in
March, 1912, through collision with the
Pisegua. The work was hindered by
strong currents and tides, but during
the succeeding three months silver
worth over 100000 was recovered at
a very low cost. The Oceana was ly-
ing quite upright; the Empress of Ire
land turned turtle-obviously very
much more difficult position for sal
wage work.
The 100000 worth of silver, how
ever, represents but a small portion
of the money which went down with
the Inflated vessel; for thousands of
pounds belonging to the passengers
themselves must have been lost. The
average passenger on one OF thes 8
liners usually carries plentiful sup
ply of loose cash and bank notes with
him, and it is estimated, as in the case
of the Titanic, that the loss Of paper
money belonging to passengers them
selves must have been enormous.
The banks, it might be mentioned,
are the gamers in such cases. The
usual procedure when bank notes are
lost Is to at once inform the Bank of
England, giving the numbers. Then it
is necessary to wait IL months. If by
that time the notes have not been re-
turned to the bank, you may obtain
the cash on again presenting the num-
bers and giving the bank letter Of
indemnity, guaranteed by your bank
ers, to refund the money should the
notes ever be presented, in which case
the bank is bound to pay again.
If the numbers ON the bank notes
are unknown, and the notes are never
found, the money goes to the un-
claimed bank balances, in which there
are always huge amounts of other peo'
pies money.-London Tit-Bits.

WAYS OF PRESERVING TOOLS
Simply Wipe Implements With Piece
of Waste Dipped in Grease When
ever They Get Wet.

A simple way to preserve tools is
given by Paul Sladsy, instructor in
mechanical practise, at the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin. 1t is simply to
wipe all tools with piece of waste
or rag, dipped in cup grease. every
time they get damp. Machine oil,
while not as good as grease, owing
to the fact that it dries up fast, will
also serve the purpose. !
Water and damp are the worst enc
mics of TOOLS" says Mr.. Sladsy, "but
any one who will take little trouble
when they become wet will be paid
by having tools last at least twice as
kong.
THE farmer is the worst sufferer
from rusty and decayed tools. He
must take them out under all sorts of
conditions, and many times year gets
them wet For that reason you sell
dom see farm without its quota of
rusty and misused tools. All for lack
cs q little effort. The mechanic sell
6sn has the same trouble as the far
mer In many cases he works inside
and maay others he is working around
oil or grease. If working outside he
has the same problem to meet.
THE only remedy for the tool chat
is rusty is to rub it with little emery
Often the rust can be taken off it at
least The tool will always be rough
however, and not bright and shiny"

In his old age his royal highness de-

inclined to this when in church, and

gruff, loud comment issue from his

On one occasion he was present at
the marriage of some princess or other
