Another application of the possi-
bilities of the instrument in mine sur

dents in blasting through. If two tun-
nels are approaching each other, or
are passing q short distance apart,
1t is necessary to determine the rela-
tive location in order that men may
be warned to keep away from the
point of danger. AS the sounds trans
mitted through the geophone are so
characteristic, frequent observation
would enable n trained observer to fol-
low the progress of the work in the
opposite tunnel. He would thus be
able to tell when blasts were to be
fired.
No attempt has been made to adapt
the geophone to determine the earth
movements that sometimes occur In

by the miners. 1t is probable, how
ever, that this instrument may be

1.-THE portal to Sheng-ling, built in
it's present form in 1865 by the seventy
first lineal descendant of Confucius
gives access to a park-like enclosure
of over 500 acres, containing the
sepulcher of the sage and of all his
descendants. The total is undoubtedly
several tens of thousands of graves.

Interest Directed to the Great Chinese

Washington.-The tomb of COnfu-

Chinese pilgrims have journeyed. is
said by dispatches to be covered with
weeds due to a dispute between de-
scendants of the great sage, who nave
inherited the duty of caring for this
shrine of the nation.
The burial place OF the man WHO has
dominated Chinese thought for % CEN
turies is described, as it appeared
few years ago, in the following COM
munication from Charles K. Edmunds
to the National Geographic society:
ssThis Confucian temple, an enormous
and magnificent place, occupying with
it's grounds the whole of one side OF
the town of Kufu, is the model OF the
Confucian temples found in all the
cities of China. 1t is almost certainly
the growth of ages.

there are not more than two or three
duplicates throughout the empire. Or
dinarily, Confucian temples do not con-
tain an image of the sage, but a simple
tablet before which veneration and de-
votions are expressed.
saThe statue is of wood, larger than
life size, and represents the sage seat
ed, holding in his hands the imperial
tablet, or scepter, as a symbol of his
sovereignty in the realm of thought.

has not been applied to the scheme OF
sleeve construction and with the ut
most success as a result. Each wom-
an who at all prides herself upon her
dressing as a mark Of distinction for
her personality pays much attention
to the manner of the shaping OF her
sleeves. There is where the art Of the
modern gown is concentrated. By the
swing and sweep Of the sleeve is the
style of the frock established. The
sleeve, by all odds, carries off the
bulk of attention. And SO 1t shall be
during the coming season-so the de-
signers have decreed, if their advance
models are to be taken as any cri-
terion.
By their sleeves ye shall know them.
That is the new style slogan. The rest
of the gown may be so simple that it
is absolutely devoid Of interest 1t may
cleave to the common level in every
other particular, but as for its sleeves,
there it excels. Sleeves are the impOr.
tance of any gown. They are the
points by which you tell at once wheth-
er it is In the class Of the ultra smart
or not. They may be plain, indeed,
but they somehow manage to place
themselves as the center around which
all interest revolves. That is their
distinction in the modern plan of dress.
To Be in Height of Fashion.
So, see to your sleeves if you would
be "in the swim" Of fashion. Do not
allow them to sink to the level Of
mediocrity. They are your banners of
fashion. And no matter whether their
folds sweep into the soup, they still
must carry that gracefulness which
is so essential part of the frocks that
are new. The sleeve has only just be-
gun to evolve. 1t promises, during the
coming season to establish real style
interest never before achieved in ex-
actly the ratio that this sleeve era
shall attain. So, what could be more
Of fashion interest than to study the
sleeve as it exists today, with an eye
to it's evolution in the future?
In one model there is used a com.
bination of white against black kasha
cloth. Then to join the two together
there are rows Of handwork In EN-
broidery done with black threads. But
it Is in the sleeves that the real de-
sign converges. They are simple
enough to be sure, but they carry with
them that certain style which marks
them as an insistent part of the mod
ern era.
The blouse of this particular dress
is cut in the kimono fashion that is
so dear to the heart of the French.
But the sleeves slope away in very
informal manner and then they are
tied together with band Of the white
kasha cloth made to form sort of
a tassel. They are inconspicuous
enough, but they have that certain air
of being the points of interest that
dignity the gown as portion of the
seasons mode. Again at the neckline
the band is used to tie the collar to-
gether. and these three ties serve to
form q pattern that draws the whole
design OF the garment into one.
The hat is white, as one might ex.
pect, and it is faced with a layer of
black, while the roll that forms the
trimming about the crown is made of
white velvet twisted until it forms a
sort Of rope.
CapeliiSe Sleeves.
The sleeves Of this gown are full
