Odd Time Recorder Familiar to Indiar>$ A sort of primitive sundial was sometimes set up by a Bellacoola Indian traveler to record, for the benefit of those following him, the time which had elapsed since he had left. This was used only where one fol- j lowed another, not as a true sundial j to tell the time of day. The Carrier I Indians and the Chilcotin Indians also used it. This time recorder consisted of a twig made into a circular hoop about six Inches in diameter, by twisting the ends together, and fastened firmly to , a slanting stick stuck up In the smooth earth. The Bellacoola, who so commonly traveled up and down the i Bellacoola river, frequently put one \ of these upon the sandy river beach. , The more or less circular shadow of the hoop was marked In the soil, and the distance that It had traveled from | the mark indicated how long the re- j corder had been standing. If the one following was traveling j In a river canoe and saw the shadow j was near the mark, his canoe party j might pole hard In an effort to catch : up, hut if the shadow were far away he knew that it was probably useless to try to overtake the one ahead.

Wafer Digs for Gold
There are many forms of gold raining, but probably the easiest is that
against the gold-bearing rock or soli a Jet of water of enormous power, which disintegrates the hardest earth, or even Stone, and converts it into a mud wherefrom the precious particles can
be easily reclaimed.
There Is a special apparatus used for this purpose. The current of water or Jet may be supplied from a reservoir or a mountain torrent of great force, but in many cases a full-powered steam fire engine of a special type, sucli as can be carried on poles over trails where wheels would be impossible, is the source of power.
tan, beige, brown and kindred tones provide the dominant colors in these flannels, with tan and beige in the lead. In tie bars or stripes, black, brown, blue, green, orange or coral provide the vivacious color contrasts that spice them up Just enough. One of these trim and practical and I seasonable suits is pictured here, made up with a popular box coat and plain skirt. Bars and stripes tempt the de-
signers to do without any sort of trimming and confine themselves to decorations made of the material used in the suit—as bias bands, collar, cuffs and pockets, cut on the bias of tha goods. In the model pictured there is no other adornment except a single bone button on the cuffs and at tb« neck fastening. Braids are used in bindings on suits in the quieter color combkintions, as bars or stripes in black or brown, against tan or beige backgrounds. The braids mutch the darker colors. All •flannel suits are at their best when their designers hold to simplicity, and it is possible for them to do this and still achieve piquancy — a consummation devoutly to be wished and always successful. These barred and'striped flannels and those in some plain colors, are an inspiration to makers of semisports suits and summer day dresses. In the plain flannels Lanvin green is a favorite and in striped patterns, white with blue, green or yellow. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. ((f\ 19?4, Western Newspaper Union.)
Umbrella’s Long History The umbrella is of very ancient |
origin. It had Its origin In the East, ^ and was used quite commonly in the t ancient Empires of Ninevah, Persia | and Egypt. The “Satrap” of Persia j was so called because he carried an |
umbrella and the word itself means “Umbrella fellow.” The Eastern umbrella was in reality a sunshade, for it was against the roasting rays of the sun that it protected. “Lord of the Umbrella” Is one of the titles of many an Eastern monarch. In the Imperial days of Greece and Ilnme, only women carried umbrellas in times of pence, but In times of war they were served

Waite drove the train to Libertyville, where the alram was given. Officers from Chicago, Milwaukee, and dozens of towns in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin rushed to the scene.

The young man next door was watching Bluebelle narrowly from his front window. He had declared frankly that he wanted to marry a sensible girl. The skies were dripping and the side-
