Fashion Hints
The newest muds and scarfs arc
made of velvet, embroidered with
chenille, -
The high-strapped boots that are
novelty tins season are especially ap
propriato to the feminine motorist.
A Scotch plaid wool muffler and
toque is a becoming and gay bit of
apparel for the woman who motors in
the country. It would be equally ap
propriale for the skater.
Jabots are back in favor. But they
are never the skimpy jabots of yes
terday. They are of cascade variety,
designed especially to be worn with
a sun oi me incroyaoie oruer.
lied velvet is smartly used for a
cap of the jockey-cap style. This
shape withstands much windy weather
and is very becoming, and the color

Stencil Datterna ' nursue us still
They have just made they way into
tne realm ot bagdom, liags ot silk
are shown in many sorts of stenciled
patterns and they are usually mount
ed, on metallic frames. "
Long chains of various sorts are in
fashion -this autumn. The woman
who seeks individuality nowadays
outnumbers the woman who merely
follow the fashion which means that
most women try to find something
just a little different in the detail
of their dress than that of their
friend and neighbor. So it is that
there are a dozen and one different
sorts of long chains to be found, each
as interesting as the one before it.
There are so many charming muffs
made of various materials other than
fur, and often combined with fur, that
it is difficult to pick out any for spe
cial notice. One that is unusually at
tractive, however, is made of tulle,
velvet and fur., The foundation of
the muff is tulle, and there are wide
trimming bands or velvet, with a lit
tle fur along the edge of the frills
at the hands. There is a collar to
match, wide and fluffy, and there is a
most interesting little hat of the three
fabrics combined.
Fox fur continues to be very popular. It is usually shown in
the conventional set consisting of muff and scarf. The melon and
pillow muff appear to be the popular shapes In muffs. Possibly
the only remarkable note about most of these fox sets' is the man
ner in which they are worn. The clever woman will adapt some
individual knack in fastening it, thereby introducing a new note.
Once uoon a time there were two
j Beauteous Maidens who married two
Clever Youths who were lip and

Fortunes to make.
One of these Maidens was a Noble
Young Creature, with Altruistic
Ideals, who held Exalted Conceptions
of a Wife's Sacred Duty.
"I opine," she said as the Com

By GARRETT P. SERVISS.
The brain is t uur instrument of
knowledge, but it tells us nothing
about itself. Theie is no branch of
human physiology so little developed
as that which pertains to the brain.
At Cornell university Prof. Wilder
has a laboratory, or museum, of
brain;. Many men have bequeathed
their brains to him, and his collec
tion is of thrilling interest. But Prof.
Wilder will tell you that true phren
ology has not yet been invenited.
Brains have been dissected, and meas
ured, and weighed, and subjected to
minute microscopical examination
but their real secret yet escapes the
searcher.
Wherei resides the power of the
brain i In the "gray matter" some
will tell you. But, then, what is the
gray matter? how do its cells act?
where, does intelligence lurk in them?
and how does it express itself?
Are size and weight the sources of
relative brain power? A big locomo
tive is more powerful than a little
one, but, notwithstanding the popular
nettet, tnia is probably not true of
brains at least, sue gives no certain
measure of power.
Daniel Webster had an immense
brain, and he wore a 7--inch hat,
lalf an inch larger than the average,
liut Henry Clay, his great rival, wore
a ost-mch hat, half an inch smaller
than the average. Cuvier, the natur
alist, had one of the biggest and
heaviest brains on record. Emerson,
the philosopher, had a surprisingly
small brain, no larger than Henry
Clay's, as indicated by the size of
his head. Evidently, it is the organ
isation of the brain rather than its
cubic content which counts for intel
lectual power.
Still, other things being equal, size
of brain must be of great importance.
Below a certain minimum size, idiocy
always accompanies a very small
brain. But Prof. Wilder says that
if one undertakes to judge of the size
of the brain by the size of the head,
he is likely to be misled by mere
thickness of skull.
A large, heavy skull often encloses
a relatively small brain. That was

China yearly imports 200,000,000

the case with Gambctta. the great
rrencu smicsman. ne naa a proutgr
ous head, but when his brain was ex
amined after death it was found to
be rather below the average in size
and weight.
Is there any other indication, then,
by which the size of a man's brain can
be judged during his life?
Recently it has been suggested that
the eye offers such a test. Large
eyes, it is said, usually indicate large
brains behind them. The experiments
upon which this conclusion rests have
been made upon fish, and consequent
ly they cannot have the convincing
force that they would possess if the
subjects had been human beings. Nev
ertheless, the suggestion possesses a
certain interest, because it is a mat
ter of common observation that peo
ple with large eyes are apt to mani
fest high intelligence, and particular
ly what is called spirituality. They
seem to be less materialistic, more
imaginative and more poetical and ar.
tistic in temperament than the major
ity of the human race.
, Anyhow, the eye is certainly the
window of the soul, and its color, tts
expressiveness, and perhaps its size,
may offer valuable clues to the meas
ure and the quality of the brain that
looks out through it.

Advice to Ihe Lovelorn
By Beatrice Fairfax.
' Be Mora KxpUett.
Dear Mlsa Fairfax: . I am IS and have
boon going out with a man of 3S for quite
a while, Juat with the Intention of being
a good frlond. Although I did not. In any
way, encouraga his attontlona, they nscm
to be aorloua, and I am at a loaa. aa to what
course to lake.
If I ahould tall him that I cannot marry
htm, I will loaa a vary good friend. If I
do not, ha will Boon expect me to become
engagod to him. That I cannot do, for Ihe
rearon that If I marry him T will spoil hla
future, perhaps, and that, 1 am proud to say,
I am too good to do.
Pleaae do not think that t have a. bad
character. It la not that at all.
I hope you will not think me foolish or
silly, but I do hope that you will take this
Into a little consideration, and help me.
like you have done to many other people,
who are now happy, owing only to your very
good and sound advice. MARY p.
Letter Ilka this come to me frequently
and are followed by others asking why I
have failed to respond. How am I to guess
what romantic Idea you have abeat aacrl
flclng youreetf lest you spoil th future of
the man you lovet I suggeat that you speak
to the man of whose love you are so un
happily certain and with a great deal
more frankness than you have shown in
talking to me.
' But all of the Soothsayers tell us
at the Way to Boost a Man up
ic Ladder is by the Wife Downing
he High Cost of Living Proposition,
jo it's me for the Cheeseparing
Policy."
Thereupon this Devoted Vit'e rolleu
up her Sleeves and got busy with
the Pots and Pans, and Concocted
Stews that would have been Ragouts
a Is Deutsches and cost Real Money
in our Best Restaurants. -,
She also made her own Clothes, and
they Looked like it, and she Pretended
to be Perfectly Satisfied In a Cheap
Flat instead of Bewailing her Fate, be
cause she could not live in an Expen
sive Apartment
By doing these things she was En-,
abled to Exist very Economically, and
observing this her Husband said to
himself:
"What is the Use of my Exerting
myself to make much Money? My
Wife Enjoys Working, and has such
Simples Tastes that it is not Neces
sary for me to Hump myself to Sup
port an Extravagant Family. I will,
therefore, take Life Easy and De
vote myself to Golf instead of Chas
ing the Elusive Dollar."
So the Man Slowed down to Sec
ond Speed, and Got Fat and Lazy,
and became one of those Men who
Let Well Enough Alone.
Now the Second Woman also went
aside and Communed with Her Own
Soul, and she said to herself:
"1 opine that the Best is Not Good
Enough for Me. And I am not so
much- Concerned with Doing my
Duty to my Husband as I am in
Seeing that he Does His Duty by Me.
"I Desire a Fine House with Plenty
of Servants, a Twelve cylinder
Automobile, much Glad Raiment,
and a Quart or so of Pearls. I also
find it Good for my Health to go to
Winter and bummer Resorts, caba
rets, the Best Plays and Expensive
Restaurants; and it is Up to my
Husband to Provide these Domestic
Necessities for me."
Thereupon the Wife went forth and
Ran Up Large Bills that kept the
Husband Hustling to Pay; and, Ob
serving that he was Always on the
Job, People began to Praise him for
his Energy and to throw Good
Things his Way, and in course of
time he became a millionaire.
"I Owe Everything to my Dear
Wife," the Grateful Husband would
say with Tears of Thankfulness in
his Eyes, "because, if I had not Had
to Make Much Money to Support her,
I should doubtless have been Con
tented to Remain a Piker instead of
Becoming a Trust Magnate."
Moral: This fable teaches that the
Wife who is a Spur in her Husband's
side generally helps him to Win the
Race.
