Pigeons Broke Up ! monopoly.


One Of the queer things about the
nutmeg Is the romantic way in which
nature thwarted the Dutch attempt to
establish d complete monopoly Of the
spice. They own the Banda islands,
where most OF the nutmeg trees grow,
and ait one time they wanted to pre-
vent everyone else from raising the
spice. So to keep up prices and to
induce other plaaEers on other islands
to cut down their plantations the
Dutch at one time burned three piles
of nufmegs, each Of them said to have
been as big as an average church.
They induced other planters to join
with them and It soon seemed as
though they we're killing all conpeti-
ton.
Then nature took hand in the
game. a large pigeon Of the islands.

HAT-MUFF-AND-C COLLAR SETS
Neckwear Considered by American
Women as Distinctive Item of
the Fashionable Wardrobe.

American women have learned to
value neCkwear as a distinctive item
in the wardrobe. Paris taught them
this. But they have not yet learned
the value of these hat-muff-and-cOllar
sets, the winter ''fxngs" that render
the same service to a simple costume
that beautiful neckwear accessories
do in summer time.
Paris sets great store by these
dainty fur 'fXings," but somehow or
other very few of them seem to find
a way to this country and the few that
do come are snapped up Immediately
and remain but a brief time in the
shops.
Several of the cap-muff-and-colla
sets are Of sealskin. One cannot help
suslectlng that many good sealskin
COot of, say, three seasons ago style,
has been cut up TO make a smart
three-piece set for this winter. Most
of the seal sets have scarfs or stoles
instead Of a round collar, and the fur
scarf is worn with ends pulled down
anGtr a seal belt to match.

kind Of fur SO much as the way it is
used, and this is the reason that seal
skin and moleskin are always in de-
mand. No fur can be draped with
better results than these. and few as
well, says a writer in the New York
Herald.
The sealskln scarf, long and wide,
after a few months of disuse, has
come back into the best of society
as well received as ever. The coat
Of seal also continues to be worn for
it has appeared in some of the most
attractive models and would be hard

AUSTRALIA TRAVELLER GOES $50
MILES WITHOUT SEEING HOUSE
Country is Not Desert and Climate
is Fairly Good in Northern
Section, Says lecturer.

Melbourne. Australia The only
country in the world where one might
travel for $50 miles without seeing a
house or meeting person, was the
description of Australia's vast North
ern Territory. given by Dr.. Gilruth,
the administrator, in lecture on this
section of the continent.
DR., Gilruth pointed out that the ter
ritory was not a desert and that its
climate was delightful for three
months. and not unfavorable even in
the middle of summer. There was
much mineral wealth. and water could
be secured by sinking bores. Immense
tracts awaited stock and maize: sor-
ghum and cotton grew well. Ii was
possible to leave the cotton until all
the pods had ripened, as no rain fell
in the ripening period of the year.
With the extension of the railway
from Katherine River there should be
a future for wolfram, copper and tin
mining.

FOR A PRETTY LIGHT SCREEN
Peacock Feathers Figure conspicu-
ously in Formation OF Artistic
Decoration for Tables.

You can't be superStitious and ar
tistic at the same time, or else you
will have to fOrego the pleasure of
using one of the gorgeous peacock
feathers in the prettiest light screen
you ever saw. These small scret rs,
which are being stood on tables to
shade the eyes from a lamp, or hung
from side wall brackets for the same
purpose, can be made from embroid-
cry hoops. The screen that used the
feather had a piece of dull blue silk
caught between the hoops on The I'M
der side, and over this was curled the
long length Of feather au naturel. On
the upper side of the hoops was a
layer of gold net. The hoops them
selves were treated to a coat of old
gold paint
When this screen is placed before
the light you can imagine the effect
that the gold and peacock colorings
give.
