Klein SUPERIOR to Rattan.

The strong, tough strands Of the
variety of seaweed known rs giant
kelp, which grows in abundance along
the coast of the Americas, have been
found to be an ideal material for the
weaving of all sorts and sizes of
baskets, reed furniture, and like ar
ticles says Popular Mechanics Maga-
zine. 1t Is said to be greatly superior
to willow and rattan for the purpose,
as 1t is much more pliable than other
materials and therefore more easily
worked. Many persons believe that
plants which grow in water are tender
when wet, and fragile when dry. This
is not true of kelp, the fiber being Of
leatherlike consistency and toughness
and the strands, size for size, nearly
as. strong as leather. In fashioning
the various pieces Of furniture, the
strands are woven In such way that
the natural brown shade of the plants
exterior forms the outside OF the arti-
Gle, and the velvety white heart, the
interior.

The Divine Sarah Bernhardt.

Among the many distinctions of the
Divine Sarah is that of having i'm
personated death more frequently than
any other artist on record. Some
years ago devotee calculated the
number of death scenes in which Ma
dame Bernhardt had played, and COM
puted that her deaths by self-admin-
istered poison numbered over 10000,
her leaps into scenic Seine over
1000, and her suicides by revolver
shots over 5000. The realism of her
acting In such scenes utterly over
whelmed the Sultan, Abdul Hamid.
Once, and once only did she play be-
fore him in the pTvate theater at Con-
stantinople, when he left his seat and
declared he never again wished to see
a woman who initiated death so
realistically.

brothers that are living. Multiply this
by two. Add three. Multiply the re-
suit by five. TO this add the number
of your living sisters. Multiply the
result by ten.
Add to this result the number of
your dead brothers and sisters. From

number of deaths, the middle figure
gives the number of living sisters, and
the left-hand figure gives the number
Of living brothers.

dance of the season and an unusually
large percentage of the members were
present The dance was one of the
most enjoyable given by the club and
at 1850 dancing gave way to an oyst-
er supper. At this time the financial
report for the year was read and it
was discovered to the satisfaction of
all that the club had more than made
ends meet Mrs H. N. DeYarman and
Mrs. Paul Starks were warmly con-
graduated upon their efficient man

given a large share Of the credit for
its success.

pleasant afternoon was spent and a
