MATTER PUT BEYOND DOUBT
After That Episode There Was No
Question az to the stenographer's
Feelings.

This stenographer almost hates
one Of her bosses, who is overbearing
indeed. And she often tells her best
friend about her feelings toward
that boss and the way he has mis-
treated her. The friend has q bull
dog and the other night he had the
dog with him when he called at the
girls home. She was patting the
dogs head when the young man
happened to say: "You'd pat that
dogs head a longer time if you only
knew what he did,
"What did he do ?" she asked.
Tripped that boss Of yours who
is so mean," he explained.
The next minute the girl rose
from her chair and fairly dragged
the dog into the kitchen. The young
man followed her few minutes
later to see her feeding the dog all
the roast beef the family larder
held. "Well," he commented, "with
beef the price it is, I'll say you do
hate that man."-Indianapolis

PRIMITIVE PLUMBAco MINING.

There are now about !, 700 plum
bago mines in Ceylon, including all
the shallow pits, open works, and
deep mines. The depth varies from
few yards to as much as 700 feet.
Most Of the mines are worked by
natives, the only important one con-
trolled by Europeans being the Me-
dapola. At the majority of the
mines the only machinery used is
the "Adabare." This consists Of a
long wooden barrel with handles at
each end. Round this rope is
given two OF three turns and
bucket fastened to each end. 1t Is
worked by seven or eight men turn
ing the handle.

PRECIOUS METALS HoARDED.

As an example of the extent to
which silver and gold is being
boarded in China, the incident is
reported of an old woman paying
for her purchase of cotton mill
with $5OO,O0O worth Of gold bars,
which she had dug out Of its hiding
place. It is estimated that, due to
the disturbed political conditions
and lack of adequate banking ia
cilities throughout China, at least a
billion dollars worth Of silver is
similarly boarded, which may par
TALLY account for the present ex-
change situation.

Ing glitter In the displays OF dresses
for formal evening wear. II is a much

Embroidery From New Republic
Meets With Warm Approval
of Dressmakers.
BEAUTY IN BLACK and WHITE

Among the novelties that have been
launched for the fall, observes a Paris
fashion correspondent, are n number
OF dresses and coats that show the
present embroideries OF Czecho-S lo-
vakia. This idea was first exploited
by Jeanne Lanvin at her August open
lngs In 1919. but at that time this
maker was entirely alone in using dis
tinctly Czecho-Slovak patterns and
eolorings. Since then many other
dressmakers have taken up the idea,
and now the fashion Is In full swing.
This Is an interesting example Of the
way In which fashion, II good, will
I've, no matter how extreme II may
appear II may not endure In its orig
lnal form, perhaps because of It's ex-
tremeness, but its offspring are met
Tor many day. So few worthy ideas
are brought out that dressmakers are
not willing to let a really good thing
escape.
influence 10 Maintained.
We prophesled when this style first
appeared that It would have n remark
able influence on fashions for a long
time to come. While Of a marked type,
II was not bizarre In any way. The
delicate thread embroidery was
charming. Along with the black and
white effects were lovely black en-
broideries on stone-colored cloths.
