Puffed all aroulid in imitation of the Turkish trouser effect, are some of the skirts df~e\icning dresses.

Patrol Bouts Have Exploded Many Theories H*!d - \ in 1t1*. After the loss ?f the giant White ?Slur Mlier Titanic in April, 1U1L*. by striking hu iMbtff, there vv'?R much ills yuaalun in Europe aud America as to M?e possibility of adopting measuiv* to lessen the likelihood of such disaster* lu Hi. future. say* P. T. McOimb lu the American Hevlew of Hevlews. An "international conference for the sav ing of life at sea," which was hold at Ixindon, resulted, among other things, in an undertaking by the principal ma rine iKiwera of the world to maintain an ice patrol on the north Atlantic from February to June iu each year. It was agreed that thin ice pairol should be curried out by the United Stutes on beheif of the jvatlous coum iriqs represented, the cost to be borue by them pro ray, Britain to pay 25 per eeut of the total, Germany, France and the United States 15 per cent each and Austria. Belgium. Canada, Denmark, Italy, Holluud, Norway, Kussla and Sweden from 4 to 2 per cent each. ^he American authorities Inaugu rated this patrol service with the naval scout cruisers Birmingham Hind Ches ter. but later assigned the revenue cut ters Seueca and Mluiul to this duty, which ships have since continued it. The first season St. Johns was chosen for the work, but ultimately It was found more convenient to utilise Hall fax. Nova Scotia, because the area i patrolled was south of St. Johns aud extended farther south as the season advanced and the armadas of icebergs became more numerous. A theory exploded by fhe lee pa trol ships Is that the proximity of ice is marked by a notable lowering of air temperature. Experiments covering three years have proved that anct? Is not the case, and tbut an a rule there i Is little or no change, in the temper I ature of the uir near an iceberg. Equal* ' ly fallacious is the Idea that the pres j euce of a berg is deuoted by a lower f ing of the temperature of the water. As a matter of fact the very contrary Is the case. Other theories, as that echoes ludi j cate the presence of bergs, that ice . discloses itself through what is known as the "ice blink" and that submarine "ears" on ships will reveal the near ness of Ice by itjs- peculiar motion through the waves have been proved equally unfounded. In truth, the tes timony of the commanders of these pa trol ships Is that the only safe way to navigate regions of icebergs Is to stop during thick weather nnd to run very slowly on dark nights. Vour Dreams and Your Health. Scientific dream interpretation helps ns to see ourselves as we really are, gives us Intimate glimpses of the sub conscious as well as conscious desires, fears 'and modes of thinking that enter |nto the making of our character and ihe shaping of our conduct . The compilers of the gaudy little pa per-covered d renin books once so much iu vogue went, rightly enough, on the theory that dreams are symbolic, llut they erred by assuming that they are always symbolic of future events, and that any particular dream element can always be Interpreted as symbolic of the same kind of future event. Those who expect modern science to provide tlieih with a dream manual akin to the old dream books, so that everyone may become his own inter preter at a glance, are consequently doomed to disappointment. Accurate {dream interpretation almost always means time and effort. But it Is well worth the trouble IJ costs. All who would discover unsuspected, weak nesses and defects in theniselves, who, would gain *71 maximum of health, hap piness and efficiency through right llv Ing, will do wfell to seek to have their dreams analyzed. And it is not only for the light It throws cm one's* nature and character ^hnt scientific dream Interpretation Is worth while. There are dreams which, rightly Interpreted, throw light on the state of the 'dreamer's physkm^health, sometimes enabling action to be taken that will avert serious disease. There also are dreams which give valuable in* formation regarding people ( of the dreamer's acquaintance. There are other "exceptional" dreams, needlessly 'looked upon wjth superstitious awe by many persons. ? Mother's Magazine. ? Americans Like Noise. Of all things which Americans de test, iiu let comes first. Take as a proof this mrttter of pianos and talk ing machines. Every workday there now comes from American factories an even 'l 000 pianos and about 1,800 talking ma chines. You will notice that the piano has not i?eeii- -entirely silenced by me chanical -mu^c. ~ Indeed, the value of pianos made daily in our country is three and one half times aw great as the value of phonographs, but the itumber of pia nos now turned out Is smaller than It was five years, ago. while the number Of U>Tgrenritvnl has Increased by half. Uncle Sam tells us that two years ago \\v paid $l?r?,U00,<HH) for talking ma chines and SI, 4*00.000 for the records which they played.
