In eacli 223 lunar months there are twenty-nine eclipses of the moon and forty-one of the sun. Lightning is estimated to cost from 700 to 800 human lives in the world every year. Soaking silver tableware in s.our milk over night will restore the brilliance of the motal. London was the first city to light its streets by gas. the first lamps being installed in 1811. Deposits of bituminous coal, estimated to be worth $500,000 have been discovered in the canal zone.

American apparatus will be used almost exclusively in the reconstruction of Pekin's telephone system. Women are now allowed admission to full matriculation in all German

BLUE BEAVER HAT WITH WHITE PLUMES. A year ago the combination of beaver and handsome ostrich plumes would have seemed very Inconsistent. Now it Is extremely chic. Beaver Is the felt of the year and some of the new ones are lovely tn coloring and stunning in hape. A cavalier model in a rather bright navy blue shade is shown, the uperb snow-white ostrich tips forming the main trimming, though there ts a big' blue velvet bow matching the beaver tucked carelessly among the feathers on the right side of the crown. :
FADS AND FASHIONS
New York, Oct. 15. The fashionable hops are displaying a new crop of Imported models which confirm the previous statement that no particular style haa won the exclusive right of way in this season's fashion. Side by sido with Mayen Age styles may be found the panler dress of the French court. Many of these are made with kilted underskirts , and outer draperies of chiffon. Sometimes the low-placed sash Is also 1 used, threaded In and out through the drapery or half concealed by it. One of these latest importations Is a dress In which the designer has conneoted the fichu with the panier. The ftehu, folded over the soulders, continues down" the front and the back, forming panels, which are draped to lve give a panier effect. One very handsome gown is of gray satin draped bver a full skirt of silver gray crepe 4 chine. The over-dress Is quite tight over the hips, though it flares halfTray between the knees and the floor, so that it may be brought up at the front and tied at the knee line. This allows sufficient fullness for walking, which will be appreciated by American women. The cuirass has now appeared trimmed somewhat on the lines of a barber pole. Formerly, to give length of line, the decoration, whether braiding or embroidery, extended straight from shoulder to hip line, but success has made designers bold and cuirasses now appear braided and embroidered In
bands extending round and round the
figure. Many of the culroass gowns are
designed to hook under the left arm. This leaves an un." ' e at front nd back, a-. Ipa i'arry out
the idea ' plate, which formed
the rM -. cuirass.
" ' fiy of the newest cloth gowns are 'VKje with big square revers, but they are not stiff. They are merely shaped
pieces of the material allowed to fall
away from the V-shaped neck, and to
ripple gently at the lower edge in a way that suggests limpness more than anything else. While they are a fea
ture of the new street costumes, they
must of necessity be made of a ma
terial the raw edges or selvage of which
may be used In an unfinished state. A
canvas or lining would merely spoil
the big revers and take from them all
the style they have.
Pretty semi-evening gowns, called
abroad casino-gowns, are being worn
with but slight decolletage and transparent guimpes of tulle or mousseline.
The materials used on gowns of this
type are embroideries, laces or crepe
de chines, for satin seems to be some
what passe. Many of them are trim
med with deep silk fringe, and, as
the guimpe is always collarless, beauti
ful dog collars of jewelled velvet or
Jet are worn, so that the gown mar
be becoming If worn with a hat. - Perhaps the newest note in the even
ing gown - is the . appearance ot the
girdle. It is high and gives a con
trast which is artistically necessary to the fullness appearing at the top
of the skirt. This fullness necessl
tates the use of soft, supple materials to give a clinging line. Two-toned effects are shining In the evening lights. These are obtained by combin
ations of chifEon and an underdress o
satin, or by different layers of chiffon
in pale contrasting colors. Black is
also used, a true Parisian combination, Fur has been added by many designers
and brocaded silk is charmingly in
corporated in the girdle and skirt of
one of the latest models.
Qualntness of evening gowns is re
peated in styles for evening wraps.
The old-fashioned dolman is very ap parent. When made of supple ma
terials and trimmed with large roll
Ing fur collars they are a delightful
combination of clinging lines and protective warmth. The influence of Louis XVI is appearing in the evening mantles, as in other costumes. A wrap which shows the lines of that style is the tempting offer of one of the important French houses. It is a long cape, topped with a fascinating hood. The material is satin brocada veiled with chiffon. Tiny, soft frills of chiffon line the capuchon; fur edges the hood, appearing in a broader band at the bottom of the cape. Blouses for fall are really divided into two distinct classes; tailored shirt
HAPPY RESULTS

No wonder score of Hammond resi
dents grow enthusiastic. It Is enough to make anyone feel happy after years
of suffering. Public statements like the
following are but truthful representa
tions of the daily work done in Ham
mond by Doan's Kidney Pills.
Mrs. William Newton, 240 Plummer
avenue, Hammond, Ind., says: 'My daughter was troubled for several years
with weak kidneys and I wish to tell
how grateful we are to Doan's Kidney
Pills for bringing relief. The girl had a distressing weakness of the kidneys and bladder and the kidney secretions
looked unnatural. She had but little p.ppetite and from a healthy child, she became weak and puny in a short time, due to the suffering caused by this disease. After using the first box of Doan's Kidney Pills we noticed that she was much brighter and stronger and we continued giving the remedy to her until every symptom of her complaint had disappeared. My daughter is now in excellent health." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-MIlburn Co., Buffalo, New Tork, sole agents for the United States. Remember the name Doan's and take no other.

Fungus growths are the chief enemies of hardwood forest trees. Some destroy the leaves, others rot the trees, and still others girdle the bark. Recent excavations In the Forum disclosed marks on buildings which warrant the belief that the ancient Romans used elevators In their homes. . An eye shield, to keep dust from dogs' eyes while motoring, similar to those worn by human automobllists, has appeared in the market. Small clamps, fastened by thumbscrews, to squeeze the finger ends into symetrlcal shapes, are coming Into use by European seekers after beauty. A subscription has been started in Switzerland to publish the writings of Euler, the savant whose name is connected with many mathematical formulas. At least two automobile tire manufacturers have perfected machines witn which one man may make from forty to sixty tires a day, against five or six by hand.

V. Pierce. Buffalo. N. Y.. and requesting the same. From this litfla book it will be learned that Dr. Pierce's medicines contain no alcohol, narcotics, mineral airents or other poisonous or injurious agents and that they are made from native, medicinal roots of great value: also that some of the most valuable inerredlenu contained in Ir. Pierce's Favorite Prescription for weak, nervous, over-worked, "run-down.'' nervous and debilitated women, were employed, long vears airo. by the Indians for similar ailments

a fastening down one side of the
front. This Is because the stock collar and guimpe of lace or net are so much more satisfactorily adjusted in a blouse fastening at the back. This back closing, however, is always Invisible, the fastening being apparently down the front. One-sided effects seem to be the
raze just now and almost every waist
as a side fastening, with a pleated
frill extending all or part way from the shoulder to th waist line, or a row of scallops or square tabs in each of which is set a button. A satin blouse with that arrangement was shown in one of the shops the other day. In this blouse one side of the front lapped over the other,, the edge being cut out into squares or "battlemented," as the dressmakers call It. Every alternate square was buttoned back and a pleated net Jabot was laid under the others. The tie, made of narorw ribbon and crochet insertion dyed in a shade a bit lighter than the blouse material, was drawn through the turned back tabs in a very graceful efTect. The latest whim of the Parlsienne is to carry her gloves In her hands instead of wearing them. FIXJP.EXCE FAIRBANKS.
