First impressions of the new fall
suits leave sense of their sturdiness
and easy lines in the mind before the
eye begins to sum up all the details
that pronounce them the creations of
this season. Dark mixtures, plain
cloths with soft finish and the attri-
butte Of warmth-in their appear
ance at least-in browns, blues, green's
and grays, appear popular in the
shOwings in the same order as they are
mentioned here. Brown, in several
warm and several dark shades has
been chosen for street and for formal
suits, with such persistence that it may
displace navy blue which has had a
phenomenal vogue. Browns and mix
lures in brown and gray seem some
= how to associate themselves in the
mind with khaki and in a few of the
new models the styles are very dis
tinctly Of military origin.
In ordinary street suits many of the
new coats are semititting, with loose,
narrow belt Of the fabric, defining q
high waistline. There are some new
double-breasted models in which the
lapped-over fronts are trimmed away
in several novel ways. On both single
and double.breasted styles necks are
high and coats button up to the top

History Of a Star.

The history of star begins with
dust and ends with dust. It takes its
form out of chaotic nebulae. passes
through a period Of life, grows cool,
then dark and dead, and ultimately
dashes into another dark cloud Of
star dust, and is thus turned back into
nebula.
We on earth live our lives In such a
short moment that evolution among
the stars is not at once apparent. It
would require a great many centuries
to actually see a blue sun become
white, then yellow, then finally red
While it is not possible to watch any
one star living its life, yet by noting
the characteristics of a great many,
complete and logical chain Of evil
dence may be found, which includes
representative stars Of every type in
the sky.

SQUIRREL FEAST.

"Come to the feast" said S..arpy, the
squirrel.
I'll be delighted" said Chippy Chap
py.
It was showing In the park and the
squirrels were hurrying and scamper-
ing for their warm homes In the trees.
"Are you going to have q good
feast?" asked Chippy Chappy.
"A fine one," squealed SHARPLY. 1.-THE
spring will be here soon SO we might
as well enjoy food. Soon we can
hunt for MORE"
Dear me-" said Chippy Chappy,
'nOw careless you are becoming. And
to himself he thought it was fine that
he was invited to a feast by SHARPLY
which SHARPLY said would be a fine one,
and he was glad too that SHARPLY
wasn't being too careful.
It was SO much nicer to 60 to q
feast where creatures weren't careful.
Chippy Chappy had been to both kinds
and he knew.
He knew Of the many times he had
come home to eat and nibble because
he had not enough to eat when he had
been asked out. And some creatures
hadn't always cared what they had
given him. Some squirrels had offered
him the shells only Of their nuts.
And he had even known children to
give him nuts that were bad. Yes,

"You Did," shrieked chippy chappy.
when he went out to a party, or when
folks offered him food he did like to
have 1t of the best.
So he was much cheered up because
SHARPLY had said it would be a splendid
feast.
"When are you going to have it,"
asked Chippy Chappy.
"This very afternoon" said SHARPLY.
"WeT probably quarrel a little" said
Chippy Chappy, hoping they wouldn't
quarrel over the food.
"Oh that won't matter" said SHARPLY,
"a little fighting Is good for q di
gestions."
"What are digestionsi" asked Cnippy
Chappy, cooking his head on one side,
and whisking his tail up high.
"Digestions," squealed SHARPLY, 'are
tummies when food Is received by
them happily. To have a good diges.
ton mean we can eat anything, tC
have a bad one means that we have
aches and pains and feel very poorly.
and that food is disagreeable to u.s."
1--WE certainly have good d~igestions,"
said Chippy Chappy.

SHARPLY.
"And is fighting good for us. dc

Excellent" said Sharpy.

Chippy Chappy. ut seems as IL I had

pleasure to talk with me-"
1T does. Sharply DEAR" said Chippy
Chappy, 'but it gives me even more
pleasure, II that could be possible, to
eat with you."
Chippy Chappy said this with a sly
little wink. But SHARPLY did not notice
1t. He vas feeling hungry himself.
"Come along, afternoon or not, wen
