rood chimney, and he must under,
stand many of the laws of nature.
Modern factory chimneys are tri-
umphs of scientific construction.
They have to be made tall in order
to maintain a large, hot FIRE, and the
heated air and gases pour up through
some of them with the velocity OF a
hurricane, fifty or sixty feet per sec
ond, or from thirty-hve to forty miles
an hour! 1t has been found that the
velocity of the ascending current in a
chimney varies, other things being
equal, as the square root of the height
of the shaft.
This shows why in order to get a
very strong draught the chimney
must be made very high, for accord
ing to the law just stated you must
quadruple the height to obtain double
the velocity. If, for example, Chin
ney fifty feet tall should give an as
cending current moving twenty feet
per second, you would have to make
the height 200 feet to have current
moving forty feet per second, and the
shaft would have to be $50 feet high
for current Of sixty feet per second.
But the actual results depend upon
many controlling circumstances, and
am informed that ten or twelve feet
per second is about the average vcloc-
ity in a good factory chimney,
A modern chimney, whether for a
factory or a house, or even kerosene
lamp, is an object lesson in practical
science. Shape, size. proportions-all
these things, and many others, have
to be carefully calculated and adj
justed so that a skillful chimney
maker is an indispensable member OF
society in this scientific age, infinitely
more admirable than gun maker or
a whisky distiller. Everybody appre-
ciates a good chimney when the win
ter winds begin to snore.

Fashion Hints

Oxidized silver net plays an i'm
portant part in connection with eve
ming gowns.
Ccrise is a favoritc color this sea-
son, and on the list also arc dull and
bright greens, lemon and deeper
yellow.
Dark blue gabardinc. velvet and
satin makes the most effective one
piece frocks for formal and informal
wear.
The bead bag is quite the most no.
ticeable dress accessory this season,
and none are so much treasured as the
old-fashioned mesh bags which first
saw service two or three generations
ago.
Cream and coffce-toned collars OF
broadcloth or chiffon are fashionable
with dark tailored frocks and are a bit
more chic in suggestion than pure
white neckwear il the costume is a
semi-formal one,
While many dresses OF the after
noon type are made to suggest but
slightly the waist line, many others
definitely define the waist shaping,
so one may be in style whichever
type one chooses.
Dark fur figures on evening gowns.
Rabbit is being dyed TO resemble
chinchilla, and has delightful effect
with dove shades. Chenille is in evil
dence in the embroiderics on crepe
de chine, especially in violet and navy
blue tones.
Lovely party" frocks for wee girls
OF toddling age are coral pink, chif-
fon with lines OF little white beads
embroidered over the hens and other
details OF sewing. Silk thread match
ing the chiffon is used to sew on tho
beads.
Paisley neckwear is having a vogue.
but the bright colors Of paisley must
be used with discretion near the face.
A collar of black satin and paisley
silk. overlaid with one of cream
chiffon, is both smart and becoming
to the average woman.
Wing effects at the back OF evening
dresses are distinctive; they are gem
orally produced by tullc draperies,
and these arc often garnished with
metal threads; they float gracefully
about the arms, and also fall over the
train at the back,
A particularly chic blouse has a
novel shoulder yoke cut in one with
portions OF the front, the rest Of
which are slightly gathered, the juno
ture OF the pieces being Unanswered
| with those little open work seams
which are so decorative in themselves
that no other trimming is required.
Lisle stockings come now in the
soft Scotch plaid patterns so fashion
able for sport wear, with dark brown
sport boots of glazed kid, and these
stockings arc more comfortable-to
the idea OF many wearers--than the
wool woven stockings sold for winter
sport wear. The knowingly gotten-up
sport girl wears loosely cut, belted

BY DOROTHY DIX.

Professor Munsterbcrg OF Harvard
university has invented machine SO
delicate that by registering the pulsa-
tons OF the blood i'll some subtle way
it can tell whether all individual is ly-
ing or speaking the truth,
II the famous scientist wants 10
render dcathlcss service to man
kind he will devote his talents to in
venting some instrument that will en-
able US to tell whether VIC arc really
in love or whether We just think we
arc in love
That would do more to allay hui
man misery than any other one thing
on earth, for the greatest danger that
mcnaces our peace and happiness is
the likelihood of thinking ourselves
in love when we arc not-of mistak-
ing a passing fancy for a permanent
passion, hectic flush for the dcvour-
ing fever OF never-ending devotion,
and of marrying under that illusion
and finding out when it is forever too
late thai we had made a fatally false
diagnosis of our feelings.
This mistake is most natural. 1t
is tho inevitable result of our edu-
cation. for from the time We arc old
enough to understand anything VIC arc
taught, directly or indirectly. that tn
love and be loved is the main bust
ness OF life.
Every novel we read has love for
its theme. Every play depicts some
phase OF the tender passion. We
glorify weddings, and halo OF ro-
nance hangs about even the most
commonplace couple il they are be-
trothcd.
Now we all start out in youth with
an excess OF emotion and super
fluffy of imagination and romance,
and backed up by all this teaching
about the beauty of love, it dooms
US to make errors that only too often
end in the shipwreck of our lives,
We are in love with love and we
go about like Mr.. Carnegie with his
libraries, seeking somebody whom we
can endow with our affections.
In every woman, no matter how
unsuitable as to age, social position,
or character, youth sees the pos
sible SHE. In every man, no matter
how ineligible, girl beholds the pos
sible HE.
All of this is very exciting, but it
is also very misleading and dangerous
and it is no wonder that young pco-
pie so often make the mistake Of
fancying that they are in love when
they are not. If you will hold your
finger on your pulse, and imagine
you have fever, it doesn't take long
to work yourself up to a high tenn
peraturc.
It's the same way witt, the heart.
ANY man and woman who keep their
attention conferred on their emotions,
and who are always on the watch
tower looking ont for an affinity will
see it in the first person that heaves
in sight.

being today we shall shake off tomor-

fections and tell whether we are in
love for keeps or just in love pro tenn,
we should all be happy though mar
