STYLE SPARKS.

Three piece costumes were displayed
at many OF the spring openings. These
included usually coat suits OF serge
and taffetas, gabardines and taffetas
and wolfe and taffetas combined I'm self
colors only.
The frock in one piece was the usual
arrangement, with smartly cut dressy
coat to match for wear with the gown.
Sports suits are being made OF
tweeds, serges and corduroys.
Favored styles are the gored circular
skirts Of fairly heavy weight materials
with a coat designed along English
shooting coat lines. This offers an In
verted plait at the back and one each
side of the front portions. These plaits
extend to the waist line only, where
the coat finishes with smoothly fitted
circular cut peplum.
Patch pockets Of large dimensions
are fashion features which distinguish
the styles OF many of the latest suits.
As many as four appear on coat,
with skirts favored In like generosity
by the addition OF two more.

A Question of Numbers

Herbert Spencer did not agree with
the scientists who favored the metric
system. He said it was artificial and
unsatisfactory. ten being divisible by
only two numbers-two and five -and
in one case the result is fifths, which
are practically useless in the everyday
life of the people. The decimal system
is similarly objectionable, he contend
ed, because it has an imperfect Fourth
and a more imperfect third, both of
which are desirable in ordinary trans
actions. He regarded twelve as one OF
the most favorable numbers, as it is
easily divided into groups Of units
for popular use.

Not Float In Water.
That wood floats is such a common
place fact In our lives that we hardly
give It any thought. II we lived In

distinguish between woods that hoat

dry that they will sink In water. nota-

commonly used for bowling balls.
Among our common native woods
there are several that will not float

Is often girdled year before 1t is cut

ing, thus making it possible to doat the
logs to the mill.
The reason why some woods float Is
not because the substance Of which
they are made Is lighter than water.
but because the cavities In the cells
are so large that the air I'm them buoys
up the wood. The material tcellulose)
which composes the greater part OF the
cell wall is heavier than water, SO that
II the air In the cells Is replaced by wa
ter the wood Will sink. This is just
what happens to wood which has been
in water for a long time and has be-
come "waterlogged."
II Is the large water content OF the
heartwood of freshly felled oaks and
hickories and of the sapwood OF GER
tain conifers that causes these woods
to sink, for when dry they Will doat

ical woods, even when dry, sink De-
