DAME NATURES LITTLE JOKE
Old Lady Seems to Have Played Fa-
vorites in Arranging Some Gil
matte Conditions.

Nature plays a cruel Joke In the DIFF
ference Of altitude of India and Tibet.
Had they been reversed one would
have said that II was providential
arrangement. The traveller who crosses
the Himalayas from Cashmere has to
climb nearly twice as much as the trav-
eler who comes from the north. be-
cause while India averages only per-
haps 100 feet above sen level, Tibet
averages 1900 feet, and for this rea-
son is called the Roof of the World.
Now, had India had this elevation,
south Of the mighty range Of the Him
alayas, and thus shielded from the
north. as well as nearer to the cqua-
tor. her climate would probably have
been as temperate as Britain, and one
OF the healthiest In the world. While
had Tibet lain as low as India, in
stead OF being the dreariest. most In
hospltable of lands, 1t would. by rea-
son Of its latitude, be one of the most
habitable countries In the world.

On one of the warm days last winter
when National Scout Commissioner
Daniel Carter Beard was on the way
to take the train to n big scout cele-
bration In New York state. he was de-
layed for some time In Hoboken.
The air being close and the scout
commissioner being dressed I'm full uni
form, he stepped outside in the street
to obtain n little fresh air. Uncon-
sciously drawing himself up and cx-
panding his lungs several times he
made quite an imposing figure and was
not aware that he was drawing a
crowd of youngsters.
Lowering his chin after a full In.
halation he discovered about twenty
typical little street arabs around him.
When they observed his gaze direct.
ly upon them, two of them suddenly
stepped forward and saluted with mil
itary vigor.
Uncle Dan" was amused. and think
ing that they probably took him for
some military officer, he said rather
grufily but amusedly. "Who do you
think you are saluting?" One OF them
came back with the words, 1.-THE

the rich lore of man who had not

tened to the tales of mahout and shi-
kari from Siam to Ceylon. He poured
out hundred gifts from an apparent
ly inexhaustible store. He told OF
"round-ups" in Burma, when the wild
herds are driven into gigantic corrals
to be tanned for the service of puny
man. Then, turning to the names be-
slowed by doting mahouts on these
colossal darlings, he pointed out that
In this nomenclature Of affection Lo-
tus, or Lily or Pearl was only COM

the narrative of the wise elephant

cessor to the throne. Finally just
as we were leaving the bank OF the
stream, he spoke OF the part played by
the elephant in the story OF him who
became the Light of Asia. Before the
birth of Gautama, destined to be the
savior of mankind, his mother dream
ed that slx-rayed star from heaven
entered her right side. and of this
star the token was a white elephant
with six perfect tusks. Again, in the
prophetic vision of his father, the Sec
ond Fear was ten huge silver-tusked
elephants, signifying the ten great
gifts of wisdom, In strength whereof
the prince should shake the world. In
Buddha's middle years an enemy
sought to take his life by sending
against him raging elephant. but

Waist of Tailored Type

Now because there Is much talk of
these newer models we must not for
a moment think that the regulation
blouse or shirtwaist is out of favor
Indeed, It is not, and 1t Is repeated in
Just as many materials as there are
factories to make them. The kimono
type with Its sllp-on ease Is still much
favored for the dressier blouses Of
geoEgette or chiffon. Many have a
rather tight foundation over which is
hung panel of contrasting color back
and front. This panel. while short,
Is left to hang free over the skirt and
is smart in appearance. The sleeves
OF this blouse are of the same color
and material as the body. One often
finds this type of waist enveioped in
a combination of Organdle and linen
or piQue or heavy lawn. The effect is
pleasing and unusual too.
As to the more tailored type of waist
for travelling or business there are
several models which bid for favor.
One of these is the strictly tailored
design following the exact lines Of a
mans shirt and is much affected for
sport wear. A long time ago shirts of
this sort were made of brilliant
