Handkerchief Linen for Blouses.

For blouses, both of the sports type
and the more dressy models, the strip-
ed and figured handkerchief linens
are modish. These have usually white
grounds with colored stripe, fiower, or
conventionslised pattern. The stripes
are. much more in evidence than the
figured linens. For the custume blouse
Georgette crepe is the general favor-
ite. 1n white or the soft tones of
pink. blue, cafe au lait, Nile green.
and the various other pastel shades,
this material washes perfectly; the

dark‘ tones are excellent and are M0.
. tical for the tailored suit being selectfi
‘ed to harmonise, or match the shade

of the suit.

indeed, gentlemen, she reminds me of

zHeaven gave to women the peculiar

“She can make butter- and abold the

A GREAT PREHISTORIC SEA.

it Reached from the Gulf of Mexico
' Far Up Into New York.

'A prehistoric sea or arm of the
ocean which extended ‘from the Gulf
of Mexico far up into New York State
is described by the United States Geo-
loglcil Survey in reporting to-a cor-
respondent on a rock sample:

“The rock was formed very long
ago. many millions of years ago. in
what genealogists call the Devonian

period. At that time a large part of“

the eastern United States was occu-
pied by an arm of the sea which ex-
tended northeastward from the Girl
of Mexico region into New York state.
The oasthrnshore of the sea was not
far east of the‘presont line of the
Blue Ridge and the Highlands of New
J and southeastern New York,
had still farthesustbya great can-

that which extended an ‘.unknown
