Little Drops Of Water.

1t has been stated that people are as
ignorant of the size Of the sea as they
are Of matters dealing with astronomy.
Few are aware, for instance, that
the Pacific ocean covers 6S,000,OO0
miles; the Atlantic 30,00O0O0 miles,
and the Indian ocean, Arctic. and
Antarctic 100000.
To stow away the contents Of the
Pacific it would be necessary TO fill
a tank one mile long, one mile wide,
and one mile deep, every day for 440
years. Put in figures, the Pacific holds
in weight 9s4.0O0,00O. 900 O0O. 100000
tons.
The Atlantic averages a depth of not
quite three miles. It's waters weigh
100000, OO0,0O000O,O00 tons, and II
tank to contain 1t would have each
of its sides 430 miles long.

walking. The model pictured is the
most popular for wool skirts. Girdles
are plain and narrower than those of
last year. Such skirt, with the new
handmade and simple blouse of wolfe
or batiste and a sweater that looks
we'll with it, is as dependable as a
tailored suit.
The skirt at the right is one of those
Irresistible silks in the heavy weaves
that make innumerable sport skirts
de luxe. They are quite plainly made,
as may be gathered from the picture,
and they have girdles to match. In
the matter of pockets designers have
been endlessly ingenious and one may
have them set in or set on in any
number of ways. 1t is on the wonder
full new colors that they rely for nov
city and they are more often two
toned than plain. Very fine wolfe,
batiste or georgette waists daintily
made bear these skirts company and
together they are the aristocrat in
sports costumes.

D LOUSES rank with hats now in
- diversity of design and beauty.
They have grown in Importance with
the passing of each season, and many
shops devoted entirely to them find
business brisk all the year around.
Styles cover a range all the way from
the simplest tailored models to rich
and brilliant things for evening wear.
Every time the subject Of blouses Is
up for discussion women congratulate
one another that sheer and dainty
handmade blOuses in simple styles
have returned to high favor. Once
again we have with us the painstaking
and beautiful needlewOrk that we have
learned to associate with France.
Whether the new blouses are the work
of French women or not, they come
up to the standard of daintiness and
elegance that those patient needle
women have taught us to love.
Fine wolfe, batiste and net are the
mediums chosen for interpreting the
new wash blOuses. Net with eyelet
embroidery is favorite, and wolfe
makes opportunity for drawn work
and hemstitching, the introduction of
filet and fine cluny laces. Fine tucks
find a place on all materials, and with
batiste very fine net is used in frills
and insertions. A pretty net blouse
shown at the left Of the two pictured
is a lovely model. The collar and
cuffs are edged with narrow frills and
further adorned with small sprays Of
embroidery with eyelets cunnlngly in
