Years ago President q. Stanley
Hall. of Clark University. sent q
list OF questions. including one on
dress. to nearly 500 young people
IN the various walks OF life.
without exception these young
people In answering the dress
question stated that good clothes
had . powerful influence upon
their feelings. They said thar
when they were conscious OF being
wen dressed they thought more Of
tnemseives. they respected them
selves more, and that their ability
was actually increased because

were increased.

Many people make a mistake IN

is no doubt that his good appearance

MAKING BUTTONS FROM MILK.

II has remained for two French
chemists. Francois Lebreil and RaouI
Desgeorge. to conceive an idea where
by milk may be made TO yield a fab
ric which may be converted into
clothing and ornaments The curds
OF the milk, says the Popular Science
Monthly, are subjected TO q chemical
treatment by means OF which the
mass is converted into a plastic sub
stance which may be rolled into
sheets resembling celluloid, from
which buttons and other articles such
as combs, umbrella handles. bric-a-
brac and even imitation leather may
be made. all of which are OF attrae-
tive appearance and OF excellent
wearing qualities.
The milk is first robbed OF its fat,
after which IL is warmed with rennet
SO as to form cUrds. II is then par
hciled and exposed TO the air, and
then IL is treated with acetone 70
give II the REQUIRED hardness, plas-
ticity and transparency. The product
may be made SO soft that Il can be
used as q substitute for silk in the
manufacture Of fine underwear, or Il
may be made solid enough 70 serve

The Psychology Of Dress.

o. Vopyught, tSl.l
A great musician once declared
that he could not compose his
best unless he was dressed in his
best with a certain lucky ring
upon his finger. and with his hair
freshly powdered. In fact, he
said. he could not do his best Gre
ating unless he was in a fit condi-
tion 10 meet his king.
Now, there is certainly some
reason for this. 1t is not all tool
ishness, although this musician
may have carried II to an extreme.
have known writers who were
similarly affected by their appear
ance. Their best work was mpos-
sible when they were conscious
that they were not becomingiy or
properly attired.
The psychology OF dress Is mar
velously interesting. No one has
yet been able to tell why It Is that
the human mind which Is supposed
to be Infinitely superior to mere
Inert things should be so affected
by what is put on the body. Our
dress has no vital connection with
us. It touches US materially, and
yet the moment clothing is on US
ii seems to become a part Of our
personality. just as much as our
physical body is a part of US. II Il
Is soiled. worn. or out of style. IL
makes about the same impression
upon us as If our person were SINH
larly affected.
The very consciousness OF being
well dressed has an energizinE
vitalizing. inspiring influence upon
our mental faculties. There is
really an encouraging power in
good clothes. II you appear sue
cessful you will be successful, but IL
you look sloppy, slovenly, II you
look like a failure in your appear
ance you cannot do your best, for
your mental attitude will harmon
ize with your appearance. You
cannot act like a success, you can
not appear like a success when you
do not look like one.
Actors know that costume
which exactly fits a character helps
them to portray that character.
The greatest living actor could not
successfully play the part of a beg
gar while gorgeously dressed like a
prince. There would be no SYM
pathy between his dress and the
part he is playing.

our courage, our initiative. our
