I The reason why there are so many

Flower Dances for Children,
French mothers have been showing
unwonted Ingenuity this winter in
drPsslnR their darlings for the popular
flower dances which are now the fash
ion for Juvenile society and carry all
before them. Generally a number of
blooms are selected, and these are
called bouquet parties. The charm of
these parties is that the little peoplo
are well suited to represent flowers
Parisian society has gone daft, over
some of the designs and also thi
beauty of some of the children. Their
dresses are floral, of course.' Trails
of blooms are draped together from
the waists, the ends floating on the
airy skirts, or loose petals are scat
tered nil over the material. Hut this
gives little idea of the chic and the
detail of the dress or of the human
floweret that carries It off. Nothing
has so hit the French taste as these
flower dances, and many of the elder
spectators have grown quite senti
mental about them.

where self control is deemed a virtue
there is no loul demonstration or s r

emotional and give way to weeping
they ar" usually ou'done by the pro
fesslonals. An undertaker in Uela
waie furnished mourners several times
recently, and the experiment was sr.
successful, the stricken families wer6
so well pleased with the manner In
which the mourning parties had beon

has determined to enter the profes

Submarine Photography.
A French engineer, M. Peau, Is
making remarkable submarine pictures
at Havre, Fiance, where th" water,
except near the surface, 8 very
muddy. Mis ciniera is contained in a
sheet steel cylinder 20 inches long
and 104 Inches in diameter. The
front Is covered by plate glass. Into
the rear of the camera runs a tuh
which extends to the surface of the
wa'er. and It Is through this that the
engineer changes the plates and
focuses the lens. Illumination is fur
nlshed by flashlights coniained In a
thick glass globe, which Is also con
nected with the surface by a tube. The
shutter and flash work simultaneously
The complete apparatus weighs
about four pounds, but when In tha
water is held down by additional
weights ranging from twenty to forty
Vunds. The apparatus Is painted as
near the color of the water as pos
slbla, so as not to arouse the tnquisl
tlveness of the fish. Popular Me
