Continent Is Rising in Spotsand Sinking Elsewhere W ASHINGTON Most people know 111 a general way that large portions I tlM ' nit ed states have tn the past been covered by the ocean, hui U Is perhaps not ao generally known that the continent Is now rising in some places and sinking in others. There A. I. r. I nr

Is every reason to Deiieve mat '"'uui movements of the land are constantly taking place. Not so very long ago. In a geologic aense, the Hudson river flowed through a deep canyon or gorge at

New York city. Soundings show that this gorge extends through the harbor and far out to sea. It is evident that the land surface has been lowered in thin region, allowing the ocean to land fill the old river

.ICCJ AU w .uv I channel, and in places wholly submerge it. The submergence of the land was greater at one time than it Is now. In excavations for some o? the New York skyscrapers remains of oysters and other salt water animate have been found. As a rule the only available knowledge in regard to the former ubmerg i. I of an area is derived from the marine shells and other animals found Ifl debits laid down by the sea. By the nature of the fossils geologists are able to tell approximately when the ocean invaded the land. They have found evidence of a submergence of much greater magnitude and much older than that which now floods the Hudson valley. (lothamites ar.d ether? need not, however, feel alarmed at this statement of the ups and dowm of the continent, for while geologically this submergence is not so very old. the geologist thinks and speaks in terms of thousands if not millions of years.

Along the Atlantic coast, from New Jersey southward, it is not unusual 10 find quay tines of fharks' teeth and other marine fossils in the green sands Iba. arp now located far inland and are used for fertilizers. In certain sections of the southern Mississippi valley, where limestone is not readily accessible, a farmer will go out and gather a wagon load of fossil oyster shells to burn for lime. . . In the course of it investigations of the geology of the country me Cnited SUftM geological survey has been making a study of the cretaceous deposits of the eastern states and has found that the ocean of that time covered much of what is now the Atlantic coastal plain, while the Gulf of Mexico tpread Mdty over the central southern states, probably reaching as far north as Cairo. III. Mysterious Stone Dog Over Gate on 18th Street MKN and women, as well as children, who pass along Eighteenth street south of F are often attracted by a stone dog above a gate which pierces in old brick wall inclosing half a city square of ground at the rear of a

There 1s no doubt as to its great age, as t;reat age is measured in Washington, the capital of a new country, and there is also no doubt that at some tim within ;t century this house was

one of the great and imposing homes I r Wl nil - ton One bit of information which the writer obtained about this ho as that it was the home of William Wirt, who was attorney general 1n the cabinet of President Jackson. The writer was not told that Wirt was the builder of the house, and it appears to have been built before the time of Jackson's administration. For a long time the house has been occupied by the bureau of insular affairs, or by a part of that bureau, and the last time the reporter passed Iber a r. aid that the house was to be torn down and a large and costly government building constructed on its site and over the ground at the rear, whl h I emn traces of once having been a fine garden. r statue is that of a hunter He is a setter, and he appears to be looktni from his place on the wall above the gate at one of the windows at (DI k of the old house.

the new pongee models. For instance, on one moael a belt of the material was placed at each side of the coat holding the fullness of the wrap in place. The belt and coat front were fastened by mother-of-pearl buttons. There was a deep turn-down collar and turn-back cuffs of the material. One was one of the new jaunty short lengths. Tavfeta is also being utilized for the dust coat, and it is admirable

for this purpose as it sneus me uu.. readilv and does not muss easily.

The coat, of soft, light weight, mixed tweed or homespun in good English or Scotch quality, is the most practical general utility motor coat one can buy. It is a trifle heavy toi midsummer days, but motoring is cool business and there are many more days when the light weight tweed coat is comfortable than when it is too warm. Charming colors are achieved In these mixtures especially in the bright tones, which can be quite light without showing soil readily as the plain one-tone woolens do.

When your carpets have become too worn for uae. cut them up into any deaired sixes aa foundationa for new rugs to be made m this way: Take, let ua aay, two yards of dark green monk's cloth, which is S3 inches wide, and la) it smoothly down over a

worn piece of carpetjiewtng tbe aelvage of the carpet or tf the carpet haa had to be cut ao that a aelvage is impossible, whip the raw edges carsfully before fastentng the monk's cloth to it. At . m W

the ends allow about two lncnes 01 the cloth to extend beyond the edges of the carpet, which must be first whipped before they are fastened down. Then unravel the ends of the cloth a particularly easy thing to do with monk s cloth and in this way make a finishing fringe, if further ornamentation is desired a stenciled

border may be painted on either end. Or a band of a lighter or darker shade than the color of the monk s cloth may be stitched on perfectly plain or applied in a conventional design. In my own home we have made not only rugs such as the above, but most attractive small rugs for the bathroom usinar hurlan instead of the

monk's cloth, and ornamenting them with a simple cross-stitch design work in heavy yarn. The old carpet under them gives durability and keeps them from curling up. When the burlap wears out or becomes much soiled it is a very simple matter to take it off and put a new piece over the old foundation. These rugs cost very little, yet they are really a most attractive and practical invention. Exchange.

STOCKINGS MUST BE DAINTY Brocaded, and of the Finest Silk, They Are Designed to Match the Street Suit.

Brocaded stockings of the filmiest, finest silk in all the fashionable colors approved for this season are displayed among the novelties in footgear. To match the street suits of gabardine or poplin there are blues and dull greens, browns and grays in all the newest, softest tones. For evening wear the brocaded stocking is tinted delicately in all the sweet pea shades, the mauves and lav

enders, the pale pink and the peacn color that are in such high favor with young and old. These colors are exploited as well in these stockings as with taffetas or other plain silks. The fancy stocking is considered a necessity at this

time, especially when variety provides piquancy. The brocaded stocking is modish in the extreme, and is especially attractive when worn with costumes which emphasize the new lifted skirt styles with sheer lace or chiffon overskirts of transparent beauty and through the meshes of which dainty glimpses of lovely hosiery are but half revealed.

To mako hard butter spread easily, beat it to a cream instead of warming it. This way gives it better flavor and prevents waste. Tn no mustard with bacon use it

in the cooking of it; in this way cover each side of the slice of bacon with a thin layer of made mustard (make with water, not vinegar), and fry as usual. This does not cause the mustard to get hot, but gives it a delicious flavor. To enjoy mashed potatoes at their best, add a little baking powder just before serving, the proportion being half a teaspoonful if six people are to be served.
