Because they don't Ay about then
as they do at twilight and in the

sleep during the day and become

they should do their hooting then.

World Using More coconu. Fat.

For many years past the worlds pro-
duction of animal fats has been stead
lily diminishing. Lack of such fats
spelled famine in Europe during the
war, when great quantities of them
were withdrawn from human use to
make glycerin for high explosives.
Even now, and in this country, there
is an insufficiency of animal fats Gas
indicated by the price of butter), and
to make good the shortage coconut oil
Is being imported in enormous quanti-
ties. During the last year 345,737,9l3
pounds of this oil were brought into
the United States.
The oil is largely used as cooking
fat, but also in the manufacture OF nut
butter, candles, soap and cosmetics.
It is said to be an excellent substitute
for cod liver oil, being highly digesti-
BILE and with the advantage of an
agreeable flavor. At ordinary temper
atures coconut oil is white, butter
like solid.
The raw "meats" are dried in the
sun before shipment from the tropical
countries where coconuts are grown.
In this shape the material is called
copra. The oil is extracted by power
full hydraulic presses, the yield being
65 to 70 per cent of the weight of the
4 COBRA.

President In Name Only.

M. Millerand's election as President
Of France brings to the fore a long dis
cussed proposal to amend the consu-
tuition of that country SO as to make
the President an important force In the
government instead of restricting him,
as at present. to the merely decorative
functions Of titular ruler.
M. Millerand has long advocated
such change, and has been elected on
that platform, remarks the Living
Age. The Socialists and radicals pro-
fess to be alarmed by this new devel-
opment, alleging that 1t represents q
reactionary drift toward q monarchy.
Some color may have been given to
this claim by the fact that the ultra
conservative and royalist press OF
France has been most enthusiastic for
the change.
II will be recalled that the President
Of France is not elected directly by the
whole people, but by the 900 members
Of parliament. He does not, therefore,
represent the immediate will Of the
nation IN the same way as the Ameri-
can President. Presumably an enlarge
ment of the powers Of the President
will carry with it change In the
method by which he is chosen.

"jusTlcE" HAS SIX FINGERS
The Thousand kronen Note Of czeeho-
Slovak Currency Takes Rank
as Currency.

While almost every country In the
world has inflated it's currency, Czecho-
Slovakia has had the courage to de-
fate hers. Shortly after the found
ing Of the republic in October, 1918,
all the former Austro-Hungarian cur
rency was called in by the govern
ment and for every two kronen of the
old money one kronen of the new
CZecho-Slovak currency was given.
with the result that, while the. Czecho-
Slovak krone is deprecated in value
and forms one cause Of the economic
distress it is nothing as compared
with the depreciation in neighhOring
states.
The gold reserve on which that cur
rency rests has unique history.
Part of the money was printed in the
United States. Indeed, the 1000
kronen note printed in the United
States is the most artistic issue the
Czecho-Slovaks possess, in spite of the
fact that the artist gave the symbolic
figure Of Justice six fingers. But the
government was confronted by the fact
that there was no gold reserve on
which to base the currency, and the
nation was called on to give the coun-
try it's gold possessions to be melted
up by the government.
An American who was there at the
time told me that the amount OF gold
articles brought in, from plate to
bracelets, was remarkable-another in
stance of the intense patriotism Of
the Czechs. And upon that gold re-
serve and notes for their share of the
gold of the old Austro-Hungarian en-
pire, still held in the vaults at VI
emma, rests the currency Of the new
republic.
To remedy the depreciation Of the
currency by increase of exports the
government has encouraged the farm
ers to plant sugar beets for sale
abroad, and 1t is another indication
Of the devoted patriotism Of this peo-
pie that In country seriously in need
of foodstuffs hundreds of thousands OF
hectares were planted to sugar, ]beets
for export instead.-Eleanor Markell

The suit of cloth at the right Is cut
on semi-fitted lines and is an elegant
example of fine tailoring. 1t claims q

Just at the right time Paris has pre-

which both skirts and coats are long

These fuller skirts and coats are in

attractive trimmings, as braids, mar
row fringes, tiny gold or silver cord
and embroideries. The coats are usu-
ally provided with high collars, but
this rule has exceptions. They divide
honors in the realm of tailored things
with coat-dresses and street dresses

New source Of Vanilla Extract.

According to experiments recently
performed In London, the island Of
Jamaica may become a new source OF
supply for vanilla flavoring extract.
II has been found that the leaves Of
the wild pimento tree which grows on
the island yield a high percentage Of
eugenol, from which vanilla, or crude
vanilla, may be obtained, says Popu-
lar Mechanics Magazine. The discov-
cry Is valuable economically as wen
Is commercially, inasmuch as iso-
eugenol, the halfway product between
eugenol and vanilIln, may be made by
merely fermenting the pimento leaves.
