Fish That Spin silk.

Silk stockings are very expensive
nowadays, says Pearson's Weekly.
The most costly of all this kind of
hosiery, however, is made from silk
which is not the product of the silk
worms, but a species of shellfish called
puma.
The puma makes its home in the
warm waters of the Mediterranean
round Sicily. It has an odd little tube
at the end of its tongue.
Out of this tube, spider fashion, or
silk-worm fashion, it spins a silk thread
with which it fastens itself to any
rock to which il wishes to adhere.
When the puma moves on to fresh
feeding grounds its silken cable is left
behind. This cable, which is called
byssus, the Sicilian fishermen gather
Byssus weaves into the softest, finest.
sheeniest of fabrics but it is very rare.
and the stockings woven from it con.
sequently areas has been said-ex.
ceedingly expensive.

COULD NOT SEE INTO FUTURE
Men of Genius Had Little Idea What
Their Inventions Might Mean
to the World.

1t appears that it is not infrequent-
ly the case that great inventors do not
comprehend the significance of the
things they have produced. Here are
two examples:
When Hertz first began to obtain
satisfactory results from his now fa-
nous researches into the possibility of
transmitting electric waves certain
men Of science suggested that some
day similar vibrations might serve to
transmit messages through space.
Hertz laughed at the hypothesis and
assured all cOmers that his expert
ments were for laboratories only. Now,
after a few short years, it is hard to
find a single issue of a daily newspa-
per that does not record some note
worthy example of the use of wireless
telegraphy.
Levassor was the great engineer
who Sketched the automobile with
such skill that his design has not been
materially changed to this day. After
Levassor accomplished his historic
trip from Paris to Bordeaux and re.
turn at the dizzy speed of about Is
miles an hour his admirers gave him
banquet. During the toasts one of
them, stirred by the spirit Of the oc-
casion, rose and enthusiastically called
on the assembly to drink to the ap-
proaching day when carriages should
travel at the speed of 60 miles an
r
neighbor and asked in a quick under
tone:
''Why is it that after every banquet
some people feel called on to make
fools of themselvesY'

KEEP BUSY AND LIVE LONG
Notable Examples of. Longevity
Among Men Who Have Elected
to Remain in "Harness."

Maybe it used to be that "the good
die young, but it doesn't look as though
they're doing it now.
Take, for instance, Rev. Albert Vo-
gel of Jeanette, Pa.
He's one hundred and two years old.
He's never smoked or chewed tobac-
co or drank Intoxicating liquor. Never
Quarreled or fought with another man.
Always trying to do good and to per-
suade others to behave themselves.
Rev. Mr.. Vogel is the oldest active
minister of the gospel in the United
States.
Hard work, lots of walking and an
occasional fishing trip is his formula
for long and happy life.
And this reminds us that Rev. DIR.
Aaron e. Ballard is president of the
Ocean Grove Camp Meeting associa-
tion, New York, and is ninety-eight
years old.
II never would have lived to this
age" Doctor Ballard said, "if had re-
tired at sixty and commenced twirling
my thumbs in idleness.''
SO it seems the good don't die young
If they keep busy.-New York

ing). It may be of the same or of
contrasting material. Use a plaid or
a striped material, add a touch to
pockets or belt, and show your
friends brand-new sport skirt.
Is your skirt too large? Either take
up the seams or recut it into new
style. Or perhaps the top is too worn
to use any more. Put on new yoke
of similar material. In case you have
no more of the old material use any
white material and wear the skirt
with MILDLY blouses or one of the new
long blouses. You might make new
MILDLY blouse from the old skirt. Use
the bottom of the skirt for the bottom
of the blouse. Measure up the length
desired and cut the top of the blouse
by plain waist pattern. Add sleeves,
collar and belt Of similar or contrast
ing material and you are ready for the
next picnic.
Does Johnny need a new romper or
a Sunday suit? Get out your pattern
and arrange all of it on the unworn
parts of the skirt before cutting.
Make it all white or trim it with col.
ored scraps from the useful rag bag.
The material is strong enough to last
Johnny q season and by that time he
will have outgrown il. Or is it Mary
that is in need? Make her q jumper
dress to wear with thin white guimpes
which you can make from your old
waists.
But you have no Mary or Johnny
and you don't need another MILDLY
blouse? However, you do need a
vestee for your tailored suit and that
old pique, linen, or madras skirt will
furnish the very latest material. Use
your old vestee for pattern or get
new style. Cut it double if you want
it lined with the same material or line
it with lawn and have two vestees
Cover button molds with the same
material, or use pearl or black bone
buttons, and you have as stylish an
article as you'll find in the shops and
for a much smaller amount. And
that green linen needs new collar
and cuff set which you can cut from
the old skirt.
So take that old skirt out of the bag
and look it over to see what wonders
you can perform.
