ODDS AND ENDS

Belts are semifitted.
"Poison green" is favorite color.
Feather dresses are much in vogue.
Afternoon gowns show huge revers.
Belts are narrow and sometimes
wrap the figure twice.
Suit coats are lined with bright
printed tussah.
Cherry red and pearl gray are IA
vored colors in the millinery world.
general use of plaitings is notice
able in many of the new frocks.
Checked velours of henna and navy
will be used for southern sport wear.
Some suit blouses are of high col

Many tailored blouses for spring
will be of plain and frilled dotted

Accordion-plaited insertions may be
used to give the prevailing side fulp

Present Craze in Paris Is for Jeweied
Arrows and Shades Of
Green.

The majority of the turbans shown
in Paris are large enough to serve as
background for the entire profile
from oke angle at least. The tendency
to wear the oriental turban in modified
size has disappeared and the rolling
folds of material are as large as any
oriental ever wore them and perhaps
trifle larger Some support underneath
the folds gives almost the wide line of
a brim. This shape worn very much
tilted serves the purpose of the frame.
This is the hat of the hour in the
French capital, and two other pet fam
eies are usually seen at the same time.
One is the jeweled arrow thrust
through the front of the turban and
he other is the fayorite color. green.
To be quite in the know, the turban
must be of enc of the shades of light
green bordering On jade. In this Paris

Monkey Fur Still Popular.
Despite its great use last winter,
monkey fur continues to be popular.
1t Is very expensive when used In any
quantity. AS garniture for dresses
and suits it is not considered really
smart unless used In the form of deep
borders and enveloping collars. Ian

deep border Of jet black monkey fur

most successful models from Made.
leine Is coat of pearl gray checked In
black and trimmed with a wide skirt
band and a collar and cuffs Of monkey
fur. This coat is worn over q black
velvet one-piece dress.
AS to fur trimmings there Is almost
no tailored suit that has not fur trim
ming of some kind. The one-piece
tailored dresses. or robe manteaux, are
also heavily fur trimmed.
One thing specially to be remarked
is the little use of the muff. Possibly
the mantle type of wrap has made the
muff unnecessary, as the wearer folds
the mantle around her and holds it in
place; thus 1t would be very awkward
to carry a muff.

Paris makes a great feature Of very
heavy wool embroidery done in loop
stitch, like tapestry. This is sometimes
sheared to form little square tufts
which stand away from the surface OF
the fabric quarter Of an inch deep.
Sometimes a part of the pattern Is
clipped and the rest left In tight
loop. All patterns are geometrical and
form deep, thick-looking borders on
coats, collars and cuffs. To some de-
gree this embroidery resembles fur.

some dragon or such like; and there
is always-a happy ending. Now the
dragon enters at last-in the form of
Tobias; and we should be happy on
that very account. 1t shows that the

we will arrange it, after lunch-for

After lunch the liking" resumed, but
in brief and entirely practical vein:
'We are about to be besieged." he
said. "The woods, probably. are al

ment we must suspend operations on
our Golconda"-his name for the ru-
ms that we were to excavate-"and
as our present purpose-yours no
less than ours, friend Ulysses-is
to confuse Tobias. my suggestion is
this: that you walk with me mile
or two to the nor'ard. There is an
entertaining mangrove swamp l should
like to show you, and also you can
give me your opinion of an idea of
mine that you will understand all the
better when / have taken you over the

So we walked beyond the pines
down onto long. interminable fiat
land of mari marshes and mangrove
trees-so like that in which Charlie
Webster had shot the snake and the
wild duck-that only Charlie could
have seen any difference.
"Now," said the king" edo you see

mangroves and palmettos?"
"Yes," answered almost

the secret creek, by which the pi-

We walked q little farther. and then
at length came to the bank of the
creek the king" had indicated. This
we followed for half a mile or so,
till we heard the murmur of the sea.

omsk Once cossack Center.

Feodor Dostoievsky, the Russian
Dickens, wrote his famous novel,
Crime and Punishment" out Of his
experiences with criminals at Omsk,
which was for a time the seat of gov
eminent of the regime of Admiral
Kolchak. In this work Dostoievsky
pictures a future Russian people
freed from bonds Of force, but united
by ties Of mutual trust and kindness.
Omsk, under the Russian mon
archy, was the crossroad of the routes
to Central Russia, Orenburg and Tur-
kestan. 1t lies along the trans-Siberian
railway, running from Moscow to
Vladivostok, a 5,3S5-mile journey. 1t
was founded about 200 years ago and
is approximately Of the size Of Bir-

EASY TO WIN COOPERATION
Main Thing to Remember 10 That Ono
Must Earn What One Expects
to Receive.

Getting on with others Is q matter
Of cooperation.
Ii you expect cooperation you must
give co-operation-judiciously, system.
atically and with good will.
You can win cooperation from q
person when you help him to do what
he wants to do.
Everybody has desires which are
worthy and deserving of promotion.
Study the desires of the person whose
cooperation you wish to win and then
idealize the ways by which you can aid
him to realize those desires.
1t all comes back to a matter Of
service-to what Emerson called the
law Of compensation and what one
teacher of New Thought calls the law
of giving and receiving. In the
language of salesmanship the way to
sell yourself to anyone is through the
principle Of service. "What will you
haveY quoth God "pay for 1t and take
it-Nothing venture nothing have
Thou shalt be paid for what thou
hast done; no more, no less"
In more homely language you must
earn what you get in the way of
friendship, favors and cooperation OF
any kind just as you must earn any.
thing else. worth while. And by the
way, to habitually take what you do
not earn, what you do not give a fair
equivalent for in n way Oh another,
is to sap the vitality Of your own
character and unfit yourself for a place
among men and women who are not
parasites.
Ii you are a salaried worker and
want to arm more money there is only
one legitimate way in which you can
do it assuming that no other employ
er will give you the increased pay),
and that is by giving more efficient, CO.
operative service. This service may
take the form Of carrying out instruc-
tons from others or of acting on your
own responsibility; in either case the
object is to efficiently help your EN-.
ployer to realize his ideals for the
business.
You cannot throw into the business
machinery the monkey wrench of in
difference, or positive objection to the
ideals of your employer and his ways
of realizing them, and expect to get
your pay raised therefor. Neither can
you, by such a course, render relations
more pleasant and agreeable and win
the cooperation which you desire in
the way Of increased appreciation as
evidenced by a fatter pay envelope

Of this rope we're affixed two little

over his eyeballs in such a way that
a vacuum was created. He then shut
his eyes so that the lids were outside
the cups.
The two sides of the rope were then

his squatting position, he lifted the

he has never heard Of the feat being
