European TarantuIa.

An eminent authority in such mat
tiers, in remarking that the tarantula
is a spider, says of that terrifying
creature that it Is the Lycosa Taran-
tula, species Of spider found in some
of the warmer parts of Italy and
Spain. When full grown 1t is about
the size of chestnut and of brown
color. Its bite was at one time sup
posed to be dangerous and to induce
a kind of dancing disease" but now
it is known not to be worse than the
sting of common wasp.
1t Is an old fable, extending to re-
hottest times, that the bite Of this spl-
der would produce epilepsy or a
strange dancing mania in its victims
and that this epilepsy or madness
could be relieved only by a particular
kind of music. The tarantula of Italy
and Spain-and it is found in those
countries today-has hairy legs with
black markings on them.

Americas Debt to Jews.

Jews figured very prominently in the
discovery of America by Columbus ac-
cording to Rabbi David Philipson of
Cincinnati. The first man who stepped
on the shore of the new world was the
interpreter of the expedition, Luis de
Torres. n Jew. Bernai. the ship sur
geon, was also jew, as were several
members of the crew.
1t Is also now said to be established
that the long-credited belief that Queen
Isabella pawned her jewels to furnish
Columbus with the funds for the trip
is legend. These funds, 1t is said,
were flu 'nished by two Jews, Luis de
Santangel and Gabriel Sanchez A let
ter by Columbus to Sanchez is still ex-
tant, in which he gives some account

q HE who Wanders through the
- shops in search of negligees Is
sure to be surprised, interested
and tempted. Surprise will follow the
discovery of the very vide variety of
styles there is to cho from. They
prove very interesting to the woman
who has not experimental with them;
she has a chance to see herself in the
trousers and coats of the women of
the far East, interpreted in silk, satin,
georgette and chiffon, the trousers and
Jackets of Turkey, the kimonos of
Japan and coats Of China, the long,
graceful draperies Of the Empire pc
'riod and styles from every quarter of
the globe.
AS it happens the ARREST and most
delicate of sheer fabrics are less fra
gile than they look. Crepe, gcorgette
and wide net top lace are used for
making many negligees, with the geor-
gette in two plain colOrs and the lace
in cream color. A pretty specimen of
this particular style Of negligee APP
pears in the picture above.
Just as pretty as these cOlOrful and
sheer affairs are coats Of taffeta in gay
colors, more or less long, to be worn
over lacy pettlcoats They are
trimmed with ruchings of ribbon or
of frayed taffeta. Very mitch the

same character of negligee appears in
very fine cotton crepes from Japan,
embroidered in silk floss material
matching them in color; they are
something between q kimOno and a
coat. Mandarin coats and silk kimonos,
gayly embroidered, hold their place
among the luxurious apparel that
blooms in the privacy of home.
Speaking of ribbons and laces
will naturally lead one to discuss
boudoir caps and camisoles. A very
handsome specimen of each of these
Is shown above and they are so well
pictured that it will not take long to
describe them. The cap is made Of
chiffon, with pulsed crown. A shaped
and wired band is extended into two
points over the ears.
The camisole of wide lace has
band of light ribbon about the top
yelled with chiffon gathered into a
frlll and similar bands over the shout

the ends are applied to the lace, and
q narrow beading accommodates the

Don't feed the chickens in a dirty,

1t pays to watch the flock closely in
the fall, winter and early spring.
Clean the floors of the hen houses
every few days; don't allow the trash

Perhaps some hens and pullets
would be much better layers if they
could select their owners.
Leghorns at 51s months, and the

WHY DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

FOR many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi.
cine.
1t is a physicians prescription.
SwampRoot is a strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
SwampRoot has stood the test of years.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has 80 many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DIR.

played, faces were white, tense and
serious. Men left their work and

Women laid down their brooms, put

whispers; sad lights were in their
eyes. Children stopped playing. Some
thing had happened. Evil things were

TIT IS a lucky thing for the Ameri-

intelligence raises them to the re-
SpOnSibility of buying for the great de-
partment stores and mail order houses
are gifted in several directions. In
telligenCe in the selection of good
styles is a necessary part of their
equipment. They cultivate a "sense
of clothes" which is another way of
describing the art of dressing APP
prOpriately-the fine art of dressing
correctly. 1t is true that they must
consider in their purchasing Il follow
ing that will not buy their most taste
full merchandise. But when they make
their display and match up their
choice of clothes with that of other
buyers, we may be fairly sure of see
ing the best things that money will
buy.
The arbiters of fashion insist that
the schoolgirl should be dressed as

goes without saying that they are at
tractive, for there is a charm about
the simple schoolgirl clothes that be-
longs to them alone,
A fine example of. schoolgirl styles
for the coming spring is shown in the
picture given here, in which cotton
wolfe with cOlOred satin stripe makes
delightful dress for a junior miss.
1t has a pretty bodice with a shawl
collar edged with narrow lace, a vestee
of the wolfe, three-quarters length
sleeves with turned back cuffs. The
plain skirt is gathered into the bodice
and short tunic is suggested in it by
the simple means of a wide tuck set
in on slope. A wide sash of the
wolfe with bow and ends at the back
finish up dress in which the young
girl will look sweet when summer
comes. These pretty cOttOns, simply
made, have freshness, and youthful
ness that belongs to nothing else. 1t
is best to copy such dresses just as
they are, for the things that make them
so pleasing to women of the finest
taste are subtle things. Accept them,
and do not presume to change them.
