New RIouses.

Some of the latest blouses are singu-
larly soft and graceful. A few fash
Toned from black net owe white are
made with u few perpendicular tucks,
the sleeves full to the wrist, with q
frill falling over the hand. Even the
crepe de chine blouses are, many of
them, made with a pointed piece fall
ing from the wristband over the hand,
the blouse itself opening In q v form
at the neck, the edge with an open
hemstitch about an inch wide. Brown
is a fashionable blouse color, and
brown chiffon tucked and worn over
gold net is altogether charming. Vivid
.coloring, even in the embroideries, is
not now the first fashion. The soft
silk ones are wrought in dull shades,
but are all the more effective for their
subdued hues.

SAVE YOUR IRISH CROCHET.
This Lace Is Coming Into Vogue Again
With Sprinq.

Have you heard the news? Irish
crochet is coming back into favor for
all sorts of things-lingerie blouses,
neckwear and even frock trimming. 1t
isn't used exactly as it used to be, but
any one possessing one of those lovely
large, round Dutch collars or a set of
collar and cuffs is fortunate in that she
can turn the collar aid cuffs into some
thing entirely different without cut
ting the lace.
For chemise tops and nightgown
Jokes the Irish crochet is indeed love-
Iy. Two of those old time "choker"
collars could be utilized to set in the
back and the front of either garment.
If you do not possess such things as
choker collars watch the little lace
shops, which deal in such articles. You
may be able to strike a bargain.
A round collar can be set In as a
round yoke in a nightgown, with cuffs
to match as finishes for the short XII
mono sleeves. Sometimes cuffs can be
used as shoulder straps on a chemise,
with the round collar set in as a motif.
On blouses the Irish lace collar can
be used in a bolero effect, for a vest,
revers, bib or little coatee, depending
entirely on the cut and shape.
On frocks the uses of Irish lace are
legion. On such fabrics as linens, Or
candies and voiles for spring and sum-
mer wear Irish collars can be used to
outline deep pockets, in bib effects, to
define panels and apron fronts, to edge
deeper collars and in the same ways as
they are used on blouses.
If you have some fine piece of this
once popular lace stored away get it
out and start to bleach it In the frost
SO hat you will have it all fresh and
ready to use when spring sewing
starts in.

A Touch Meal.

Tastes differ strangely from age to
age. Flamingoes' tongues are said to
have been an epicurean luxury in Ro-
man days, but the authors Of "Unex-
plored Spain," who experimental with
them, found no pleasure In the meal.
1.-THE tongue" they say, sis a thick,
1eshy organ, filing the whole cavity
of the mandibles and furnished with a
series of flexible bony spikes or hooks
nearly half an inch long and curving
inward. We found them quite uneat-
able-tough as india rubber. Even our
dogs refused to eat the d~elicacy."

Oxygen and HYDROGEN.

Oxygen gas a discovered by DIR.
Priestley about Aug. 1, 1774. Turquet
de Mayeme discovered the infamma-
bility Of hydrogen In 1856. In 17ee
Cavendish proved hydrogen to be an
elementary body, and in 1871 he and
Watt first showed that in the combi-
nation of this gas with oxygen, which
takes place when it Is burned, water is
produced. Later Lavoisir decomposed
water with its elements and gave by
drogen its present name, instead Of It's
old one of inflammable air.

Essence of Good Cooking.

The essence of good cooking lies in
four things-the ability to preserve, de-
velop, improve and vary the flavor of
foods. The French excel particularly
In the art of varying the flavor. A
small piece of meat sufices them to
make a whole pot Of vegetables redo
lent of 1t. Conversely, they use all
sorts of vegetables to impart their
unique favor to meats-in soups,
stews, sauces and the water in which
meat or fish is boiled. The combina-
lions and variations are endless.

If you are addicted to the bad habit
of carrying your valuables and money
with you wherever you go you should

straps to buckle tightly around the leg
below the knee. They come In all
shades of satin.

CIVILIZATION or AGES AGO
Ruins Of 172 Cities, Big and Little,
Have Been Discovered on VI.
catan Peninsula.

Scattered all over the Yucatan PEN
insula are monuments to a civiliza-
ton that flOurished thousands of years
ago. Just how many thousand nobody
knows and scientists differ very ma
tcrially in their ideas on the subject.
The prevailing belief, however, is that
this civilization wds in full swing as
late as the beginning of the Chris
tap era. Other scientists assert that
the ruins antedate those of Egypt.
Yucatan can well be called 1.-THE
American Egypt" George Minor writes
In the Mexico Review. The ruins Of
172 cities, big and little, have been dis
covered, and not quarter Of the ter
ritory has been carefully explored, for
the tropical verdure makes the finding
Of the ruins difficult. You might pass
within a hundred feet Of a wonderful
old temple or, pyramid a hundred
times and not discover it, so effective
" does the jungle screen these crum-
bling monuments of the distant past
and shield them from the prying eyes
Of this inquisitive and presumptuous
age.
OF the 172 clusters Of ruins discov-
cred, two sets represent what were
once large and prosperous cities, Of
about one-half million inhabitants
each. Doubtless at different times each
one Of these two cities was the CAPT.
tai Of the country.

IT'S THE SAME OLD WORLD
Letters Of Deserted wife to Husband,
Written 1000 Years Ago, Unearthed
In Ancient Ruins.

A wife's letter 1900 years old was
unearthed recently in the ruins Of the
Scrapoum, the temple Of Memphis, the
great city Of ancient Egypt. The letter
was written by 1sias to her husband,
Hcphaestion, who had deserted her.
There were two letters, in fact, the
first bearing date equivalent to July
"a, 100 B. C. In them the wife re.
proaches her husband for neglect OF
his family and, what is particularly
interesting at the present time, she
complains Of the high cost Of living.
Here are some extracts from the
first letter: "1sias to Hephaestion, her
husband. Greetings-If you are well
and other things are turning out with
you according to your wishes, 1t would
be as l perpetually pray the gods. I
myself am in good health, and the child
and all in the house make mention of
you continually. When received
your letter from Horus, in which you
explained that you were in retreat in
the Serapoum at Memphis, / imme-
diately gave thanks to the gods that
you were well. But that you do not
return distresses me. For having pi-
loted myself and your child through
such a crisis and having come to the
last extremity because Of the high cost
of corn, and thinking that your return
would bring me relief, you have never
even thought Of returning or spared a
look for my helpless state"

Why We Will Win the Pennant

The interest in baseball right
now is centered in the race be-
tween the White Sox and Red
SOx.
Only a few points separates the
two clubs and twice in the last
three weeks the Red Sox have
driven the White Sox: from the
top to take that coveted place for
themselves for a few hours.
Both clubs are now going at top
speed. 1t is impossible to pre-
dict which will win. One has as
good a chance as the other, it de-
ponds mainly on the team with the
reserve driving power on the
stretch.
Here's what the two managers
think about their team s chances
to win.

WAR WAS STARTED s.; BY WOMAN:
Civil Conflict In England Dated From
! Time Jenny Geddes Threw Stool
at BISHOPS Head.
BY Hop !.

J A stool, such as people used to eit
upon in churches, and which was cast
at the head Of the dean of st. Giles in
Edinburgh, may be said to have
marked the beginning Of the civil war
IN England which ended with tho
downfall Of Charles IL. This event
took place on July %, 1887. It will
be remembered that James l contrived'
to introduce bishops into the Scottish
church. His son, Charles I, desired
to 60 still further and introduce book
of canons and a liturgy. Archbishop
Laud, whose tendencies were toward
the Roman Catholic church, backed
him in his project. Between them they
prepared a service book, and the order
went forth to have it read on a certain
Sunday in all the churches in Scotland.
The Scotch, however, declined to have
their religious service tempered with.
When the day came for reading the
new service book few of the clergy
were willing to proceed with it, such
was IAc OppOSltAOu dlHOuS lue people,.
In the principal church of Edinburgh,
the chancel Of the old cathedral Of St.
Giles, which contained seats of the
Judges, magistrates and other authori.
ties, the liturgy was formally intro.
duced under the auspices OF the bishop,
dean and other clergy. .
There were no pews in those days,
each person bringing his own stool to
church with him. When Bishop James
Hannah started to read the service,
one Jenny Geddes arose and threw her
stool at the good mans head. So
started the first outbreak in conflict
that was to have important results.

King Names British Premier;

The premier or prime minister Of
Great Britain is nominated by the
reigning sovereign, to form a cabinet
and organize the government. The ap-
pointment Of premier does not have
to be confirmed by parliament, but no
prime minister could carry on the
government Of the country for any
length of time who did not possess
the confidence of the house of COM
mons. He selects his colleagues or
other members of the cabinet, and his
resignation dissolves the ministry.
Members Of the British house of lords
hold their seats by virtue of heredi-
tary rank and titles, some Of which
were conferred by sovereigns hundreds
Of years ago. Canada has no repre-.
sentative in the British parliament. It
has a parliament and government of
its own with governor general, ap-
pointed by the king of Great Britain.
