CLOTH THAT CHANGES COLOR
Peculiar Effect Produced Through the
Use Of Chloride Of Cobalt
as 4 Dye.

Cloth changes color with a change
Of weather, If it is died with chloride
Of cobalt. In clear weather it Is a
blue; when a change Is neal it turns
to violet; and for rain it turns to
bright pink. The change is due to
moisture and it can be produced by
breathing upon the cloth.
This property Of cobalt salts has
been applied to the construction of
little barometer flowers. The petals
of artificial flowers are tinted with
cobalt salts, and vary in color from
blue to pink, according to the weather.
Their action, however, is different
from that Of a barometer, which in
dicates a change of pressure Of the
atmosphere, and Is also usually behind
the change Of weather. The barome-
ter indicates the cause of the storm
and the colOred cloth shows its effect.

CARD PARTY BY ST. MATHEWS
LADIES WAS A BIG SUCCESS

About eighty prominent local people
had the time Of their lives so to speak
playing Hearth and Cribbage at the
card party given by the ladies Of the
st. Mathews church, in the new din
ing room Of the Just Inn.
At progressive Hearts, Mr.. and Mrs.
Tyson won the two prizes. The Crib
bage game was the good old fashioned
kind and a very interesting one to
watch.
After cards a very fine and dainty
luncheon, which more than upheld the
fame of her former luncheons, was
served by Mrs. Divine. The party was
a very fitting opening for the dainty
room and many were the remarks Of
praise for the new arrangements.
