Thus gallantly he appears In my mind's eye when I pause in rereading one of his books and summon fantasm of the author—Robert Louls Stevenson, gentleman adventurer in life and letters, his brown eyes shin- Ing In a swarthy face, his lean, long- enduring body adorned with a black velvet Jacket, Henry Van Dyke writes in Scribner's, This garment is no disguise, but a symbol. It is short, 80 as not to Im- pede him with entangling tails. It is unconventional, as a protest against the tyranny of fashion. But it is of velvet, mark you, to match a certain niceness of choice and preference of beauty—yes, and probably a touch of bravura In all its wearer's vagaries, "Tis like the sliver spurs, broad some brero and gay handkerchief of the thoroughbred cowboy-—not an elemert of the dandiacal, but a tribute to ro- mance, Strange that the most genn- ine of men usually have a bit of this in thelr composition; your only incur. able poseur being the fellow who af- fects never to pose and betrays him- self by his attitude of scorn. Of course Stevenson did not always wear this symbolic garment. In fact the only time I met him in the flesh his clothes had a discouraging resem- blance to those of the rest of us at the Authors’ club In New York. And a few months ago, when I traced his “footprints on the sands of time" at Walkiki beach, near Honolulu, the picture drawn for me by those who knew him when he passed that way, was that of a lank, barefooted, bright. eyed, sun-browned man who daun- dered along the shore .In whiteduck trousers and a shirt wide open at the neck. jut the velvet Jacket was in his wardrobe, you may be sure, ready for fitting weather and occasion. to EASY WAY TO CRACK NUTS Scientists Recommend Use of Liquid Air as Best Means of Getting at Delectable Kernel.

One day while she was playing at a neighbor's the woman of the house sald: “Mary, do you know how old your mother 187" Mary answered: “Nineteen” “Oh, she is older than that, Mary, I'll! bet she Is twenty.six or twenty. seven,” Mary came home and told me of the conversation.

There are some Interesting phases of the official statistics with reference to the manufacture of silk goods In the United States, particularly those that have fo do with the early history of that industry. It appears that the making of silk goods in our country has grown rap idly since the year 1860. At that time only 15 per cent of the silk used in the United States was homemade. In 1870 the percentage of home manu. factured silk had doubled; in 1880 it had become more than 50 per cent; in 1800, 70 per cent, while at present per cent. Putting Her at Ease.
