MOLLUSKS MAKE GOOD SOUP
Thrown Up on Florida Beaches by the
Waves They Are Collected and
Sold to Hotels.

Along the Florida beaches q very
common and familiar kind Of rock is
wholly composed Of the shells Of a
small species of mollusk, oval In shape
and half an inch long. 1t is called
'coquina," and Is hard on the feet IL
one walks over It without shoes.
In beds below the line Of low tide
are mollusks Of the same kind, alive.
Thelr bivalve shells are pink, blue and
Of other colors, quite brilliant, so that
in places the beaches are beautiful to
the eye, great numbers of them being
thrown up by the waves along the
shore.
Under such circumstances they soon
die. Of course, leaving their pretty
shells to adorn the strand. But there
are always plenty of live ones at the
waters edge, and these are gathered
In quantity at some Of the winter re-
sorts by boys who collect them with
rakes and carry them In baskets to the
hotels for sale.
They are used for soup, being
pressed to a pulp In order to extract
their Juice. The latter, strained and
heated, affords a very delicious table
beverage known as "coquina broth"
1t is particularly recommended for In
vallds and persons with weak diges.

FELT THAT HE NEEDED "PEP"
Little Fellow Simply Had to Spend
Nickel Of the Dime In His
Possession.

Frank Groninger, attorney, has a
Unchecked, tow-headed youngster,
whose name to every one who knows
him. is synonymous with effervescent,
overlooking spirits. He is a thinker,
too, this small Jack.
Il was he, who some years ago (he
has now attained the mature age Of
eight years., after gravely meditating
on the phenomenon that ensued when
things were planted in the ground-i.
e., that duplicates of the thing planted
accommodatingly took root and grew
up out Of the ground-was discovered
in the yard by his mother, carefully
patting and slapping down a pile of
wet mud with his small spade.
"What are you doing Jack; planting
something's" Jacks evident reluctance
to disclose the nature of his agricul-
tural activities aroused his mothers
suspicion. Grasplng one of the minia-
ture garden tools at Jacks feet she
dug vigorously into the wet mud. A
CLINT caught her eye, and In Mortified
silence she scraped the mud from her
jeweled gold watch.
But, If Jack didn't succeed in grow.
Ing nice little timepieces, that a small
boy could hear tick undisturbedly, he
has kept right on being active. Hence
his mothers surprise the other day al
reply of his.
Jacks father. before leaving for his
office. gave Jack a dime. Afterward
Jacks mother seeing the coin in his
hand, admonished him to put the dime
away and save 1t.

New Shaded Red.

The new shade Of red known as
Wilson red or Swiss red is really very
taking, especially early In the spring.
1t ought to look well even in mid
summer at the seashore or in the coun-
try, but of course the favor in which a
color is held at this date is no criterion
Of the midsummer favor it may enjoy.
At all events, just now all sorts of
odds and ends are featured In this
clear new shade Of red. Especially eff
fective are the many red beads that
shop keepers have dug up from some
forgotten corner and that manufacture
ers have rushed to the shops. They
are strikingly pretty with white blouses
and especially for the young girl.

In millinery, as in other things, the
seasons styles have gravitated toward
few types that have established
themselves and will last as long as the
summer lasts-and perhaps longer.
One may be sure of them anywhere.
Among them are wide-brimmed and
moderately wide-brimmed sailor
shapes, small hats that have a sugges-
ton of the poke bonnet in their lines
and the cloche or drooping-brlmmed
bell shape, with it's brim little wider
than in the beginning of spring. These
persist among others that are almost
as popular; as small turbans ard me-
dium-sized turbanlike shapes with spir-
tied brim lines and coronets. The last
Is a type that women of middle age
like best.
Plenty of variety appears in these
favored shapes in popular hats. One
does not look for eccentricities in the
shapes themselves; but in the trim
mings all sorts Of pretty whims find
expression, especially among street
hats. An example of this appears In
the smart hat with curled quill trim
ming that is shown in the accompany
Ing picture. This model has been made
In black and In several colors-each
hat all in one color-with brim and
side crown of caterpillar braid, facing
and top crown of satin. The quill
that trims it is of the same satin and
is the spice of the creation. 1t departs
from the way Of quilts, leaving their
straight and narrow path to follow q
willful spiral of its own, and fully JUS
titles its independence.
A beautiful wide-brimmed hat Is
made of crepe georgette faced with
braid. The upper part Of the crown is
covered with folds Of crepe and the
lower part with a smooth band of ii

DIFFER OVER ORIGIN OF DOG
Whether All Kinds Had Common
Ancestor Has Long Been Mat
ter Of Dispute.

The ancestry Of the dog has been
the occasion of much controversy, ac-
cording to Leo s. Crandalrs book.
fsPets." Many naturalists have con-
sidered that It is descended from a
single ancestor, such as the common
wolf Of Europe. Darwin, however,
leans toward the theory Of multiple
origin, and advances much convincing
proof in support of his belief. 1t Is
widely known that many savage tribes
have dogs. which appear to be simply
half-tamed representatives Of the par
ticular wild doglike animals inhablting
the same regions.
The dogs of the American plains In
dams closely resemble the small prai-
RE wolf, or coyote; the husky Of the
north country is plainly not far re-
moved from the gray wolf; the Ger
man sheep dog and the SamOyede are
strikingly wOlflike In appearance
Whether our present dogs are the re-
suit Of crossing these many simple
derivatives of wolves and Jackals
among themselves, or whether there
was an original ancestral dog, now ex-
tinct, with which the blood of other
species has become mingled, we have
not yet been able to determine, though
80 many primordial animal remains
have come to light.
According to st. George Mivart, the
dlngo is the only wild dog still exist
ing which meets the requirements Of
an ancestor of our modern breeds.
This species is found throughout Aus
tralia and fossil bones which have been
found show It's presence there from
very early times.
