THE UNREAsoNING CREATURE

In the catalogue Of animals man is designated as
ahomo sapiens the reasoning creature. OF course, man
makes the catalogue and can be as complimentary to hm
self as he sees ht.
But the homey truth is that the bees and the ants and
the birds and all the lower animals reason within the
range Of their needs with unening accuracy. While few
men do any real reasoning worth speaking Of
We are ruled by passions and narrow personal inter-
ess We decide upon the most momentOus questions by
the test Of our personal welfare and fixed preudices

up in existing institutions and the existing order who sees
everything to gain and nothing to lose by things they
are is q conservative. II isn't thinking makes him such
Your poor man. who owns nothing and wants every
thing who has nothing to lose but fances he has every
thing 10 gain By change is vehement for refom-usuay
Indifferent to what it may be- it be change 1t is
not reasoning makes him a refOrmer.
ltis largely impossible that either Of these classes
should reason impartaly or reason at ALL What passes
with them for reasoning has its seat in the belly not in
the brain
AT bottom some element Of sef-inerest Wtiates all
our attempts at reasoning and the conclusions we arrive
at are things Of chance

Of all things. millinery requires careful choosing. and, after it is bought, the hat requires careful plac- ing on the head, if it is to fulfill it's destiny. According to an old millin- cry maxim that destiny is to improve the appearance of the wearer. You must look better with your hat than without it"-that is the eXacting test to which each new mode is to be sub jected.
 The three new models for fall, which appear here. are types that will repay a little study on the part of those who consider things before buy ing them They include small tur- ban, a turban with extension crown which forms a halo brim, and one of the graceful wide brimmed hats to which fashion is extending welcom- ing hands.
 Quite number of these wide brimmed hats are shaped with brims turning upward at the back. This has brought in the underbrim trimming again and it is not confined to wide brimmed shapes. Short. curling ostrich plumes fit into the trimming of the underbrim in the most graceful way.
 The small turban is made of corded

No outfit is quite complete in these days without a sweater of some sort. And there is wide and varied choice in sweaters, for they ar claiming more attention than ever before in their history.
 There are finely woven sweaters of silk, in gay colors, which one sees at the afternoon concert, at the country club, on the beaches and the golf links, and in any other outdoor meet ings of fashionables. There are sweat CTS considerably like them. made of artificial silk, usually in more vivid colorings than the all-silk variety Then there are the practical wool sweaters, similar to that shown in the picture and belonging to the same class
 The new models are carefully de- signed to the end that they may en- body just the right style. In the ex- ample pictured here, for instance. it will be noticed that the sleeves are well shaped and finished with cuff

SUBMARINE F-4
 FINALLY RAISED
ACTUAL RAISING OPERATION oc- CUPiED TWO HOURS-PlAN
 WORKED WITHOUT HITCH.
INVESTIGATION IS ORDERED
At Time of the Accident 1t Was Re- ported the Vessel Was Not in Good Condition When She
 Went Below the Water.

Honolulu.-The United States sub- marine FLA, submerged outside the harbor here since March 25 last, was rofoated and lowed to the quarantine station in Honolulu bay.
 Although the F4 has been brought into the harbor the wreck is still sub- merged to a depth of six feet, and will be drydocked Nothing has been divulged by the naval officials regard ing conditions.
 The actual raising operations oecu' pied two hours, the plans of the e1gi- neers working without hitch. The still submerged vessel was lowed slow ly into the harbor. where all the shipping. including the interned Ger man boat Gera, half-masted their flags.
 When the submarine has been dry docked a board composed of Rear Ad- miral Clifford ]. Boush, commandant of the naval station: Lieutenant Kirby B. Crittenden and Naval Constructor Julius A. Furrer will begin. a thor ough investigation for the purpose of ascertaining. if possible, the cause of the disaster.
 The submarine F-4, commanded by Lieutenant Alfred l.. Ede and with a crew of 21 men, went to the bottom during maneuvers of the "F" squad ron. She was located TWO days later and Diver John Agraz of the navy, ocf o h1i cl !, n ey a new worlds record. in an effort to facilitate the work of bringing her to the surface.
 Attempts at rescue failed, and on March 90 it was reported she lay in 270 feet of water and would have to be raised by pontoons.
 Secretary Daniels announced that the boat would be raised at any cost in order to determine the cause of the accident and diving apparatus and divers were sent out.
 Frank Crilly. a diver, went down 22S feet and found one of the com partments of the F-4 filled with water. Another, William Loughman. descend ed 220 feet the next day and was se- riously injured by water pressure. These men put lines on the F-4 by which the boat was dragged slowly up to the shelving bottom. but in the process the stern was wrecked and broken, and work was halted to await the arrival of pontoons. Six of these, capable of lifting 50 tons each were sent from Mare Island navy yard early in August on the Maryland.
 At the time of the accident reports gained circulation that the F4 was not in good shape when she went be- lew water. These were officially de- nied

 Because this is a sweater for real comfort in cool days it is rather heavy It's usefulness begins with fall, and continues to the coming of another summer, for t reinforces the too light wrap in the depths Of winter. It is an excellent model to choose for the young girl to wear to school during the autumn months, and nothing could be better designed or arranged for sports wear
 Sweaters of wool stand the rough handling which they are likely to get from young people. and continue to look none the worse for it. Now that they are made in beautiful colors and with so much attention to style. the field of their usefulness is wonderfully increased

silk and would be equally effective in panne velvet. The material is covered with corded tucks and serves for the covering of the hat and for it's trim ming. The edges are finished with a silver tinsel braid which has the effect of needlework. It looks like close-set overcast stitches, and needlework decoration is a feature of the new fall millinery.
 The turban with extension crown is made of black velvet and white chiffon. A bead work ornament trims the front and Is made entirely of white beads.
 The soft and graceful brim of the third hat bespeaks for it, and for many others of the same character, first place in the favor of young women. It is made of velvet in black or one of the dark shades of fash ionable colors. The trimming is of white fancy ostrich and looks like a bit of fireworks, done in frost It throws it's sprays in front of the left eye of the wearer with an abandon un- known to ornaments hitherto. But it is strong in the knowledge that 1t is less in the way of vision than many a veil.

live fish and reviving them several weeks or months later. He put 28 live fish in a box that contained water rich in oxygen. in which several pieces of ice fioated. He then reduced the temperature of the water very slowly until it froze At the end of about two months the cake of ice was gradu- ally thawed and the fish were found alive.
 According to the report of the ex- pertinent it is essential that the water be very gradually frozen, and that it shall have contained pieces of ice for from fifteen to eighteen hours before the whole mass is frozen. The process of thawing must also be very slow. It is believed that through this process Siberian sturgeon and Alaskan salmon can be exported alive to distant coun- tries.-Tit-Bits.
