peb,s Mother Rules by Her Divine

Right of Maternity
The love affairs of Deborah Burns
were much discussed after her
mother returned from the west.
Everybody knew that Mrs. Burns
was accustomed to marry off her
daughters to suit herself, and every
body was wondering If Deb would
prove as obedient a her older sis
tcrs. Mrs. Burns was considered a
master of diplomacy in matrimony.
She rad allied her family to two of
the big fortunes Of the town. Now
she intended to annex the Van
Eyck's. Oldest and richest of all, so
the gossip ran.
And she'll do It," Chrys asserted.

truth to please me-" l agreed. "Of

couldn't Swerve her."
I'm not so sure. Mrs. Burns is
so SNUG and selfish that she never
guesses what awful demands she
makes on those girls" said Chrys.
she rules by the divine right OF
maternity. No kaiser ever dictated
more tyrannically and complacent-

obedience OF her very clever chill
dren. and they are just as proud!
As If she had a particle of right to
decide everything for those dandy
young women-everything from
choosing cosmetics to choosing hus-
bands! Jane, I believe that If Deb

EXPLORE RED RIVER VALLEY
Scientific Expedition to Make Search
for the Bones Of Reptiles Of
Prehistoric Era.

Another expedition to look for the
bones Of great prehistoric reptiles in
the Red River valley OF Alberta Is
on its way. This time II Is under the
direction of DIR. w. A. Parks of the
University of Toronto, and the Royal
Ontario museum. For a number of
years these expeditions have been an
annual summer journey for three
months.
Two years ago the almost perfect
specimen OF the kritosaurus incurvi-
manus, which has just been finally
Clipped free from the rock and pre-
sented to the museum, was found.
making distinct addition to the rec
ords OF science. and giving to Toronto
the only specimen of this species yet
discovered. Three incomplete skele-
tons OF the kritosaurus and great
horned head Of brontosaurus, 4 feet
inches In length, were found by the
professor, but have not yet been carved
from the rock. II Is the hope OF Prof.
Parks TO collect ultimately for the
Royal Ontario museum one Of the fln-
est exhibits OF dinosaurs In existence.
The locality and the method OF
finding the specimens are described
by Prof. Parks. "The river cut right
through the fiat prairie to n depth OF
400 feet. forming n whole lot of brolS-
en- buttes. and II Is among these that
the bones are discovered. one OF the
difficulties In obtaining complete
specimens is that the bones cannot be
obtained until they are partly exposed
by the action of natural derodlng
causes. Sometimes you are dlsap-
pointed then, for after exploring you
may find only single bone. You dig
down as close as you can and pack
the rock in plaster paris for ship
ment."
The Red River valley 100000 years
ago was near the coast of great in
land sea that stretched from the Gulf
Of Mexico TO the Arctic ocean. "rhe
sand along the shallow, brackish
shores of this great body of water
formed a splendid preservative for
those huge reptiles which inhabited
the world at that time. Our kritosaur-
us was found In what we call the Bell
formation OF the upper Cretacean sys-
tem," explained Prof. Parks.

d 1BBONS have always played n
IN prominent part in the apparel of
women, but they were never so impor-
tant as they are now. Their manufac-
turers look to the ingenuity of design
ers of dress accessories, of millinery
and of innumerable pretty furnishings
to extend the demand for their prod
ucts, and these designers have accom-
pllshed more than was expected of
them. The beauty of the ribbons
themselves, proves an inspiration and
they have long since ceased to be used
merely as decorations. In millinery
they make entire hats and have for
several seasons, so that the ribbon hat
has an established place which 1t will
continue to fill.

done with 1t I'm the hands of artists,
several stars in our American firma-

methods will protect you from anthrax.
Before the war there was little
danger OF anthrax from the shaving
brnsh, as almost all Of these were
made from hair that had been thor.
oughly dlslnfected In France or
Germany; but after 1914 the hair
came direct from Russia and China
via the Pacific ocean. and twenty
cases Of anthrax have been traced dl.
rectly TO this source.
AS 6i per cent of anthrax cases are
fatal II behooves us to be extra care
ful, In spite of the fact that human
susceptibility Is low--how low Is in

Hats worth Small Eortunes.

Hats were designed primarily by
the ancient peoples for protection,
and through the evolution OF the CEN
turtles new generations have failed to
improve upon the ancient types that
exist In various climates to prevent
exposure either to extreme heat or
cold. The sub-arctic people from the
frozen tundras wear snugly-htting
bonnet with earlaps. In India the
turban Is worn to protect the head
against excessive heat, says Asia Mag
azine. These turbans are made from
cloth, 20 to 40 feet long. and wound
about the head In endless variety, ac-
cording to rank and taste. The na-
tives OF the Philippines and the South
Sea islands wear large sun hats. usu-
ally made of palm leaves. In China.
In addition to the large, peaked coolla
hat, one finds hat which Is emblem
attic OF rank. The social position
Of a Manchu woman can always be
determined by the ornaments on her
bonnet, often consisting of precious
Jewels. Some of these hats cost as
much as $4,000. In various climates
and countries natives utilize orna-
mentatlons they secure from birds and
game to make their hats attractive.

Old japan plsapp.arinn.

Japan Is so fast adapting and

manners, but western architecture, as
well. but the traveller. who wishes to

women. however. are free from these
Eurasian indlscretions in dress and
habit, preserving as yet their graceful
native costumes.
