v Garden Towns and Health.
The value of suburban garden town
for the bousing of workmen of large
cities has been demonstrated In the
British isles since the passage of the
bousing and town planning act three
years ago. Henry Vivian, chairman
of the copartnership tenants move
ment In England, bus gathered Inter
estiug statistic ns to the effect of
country life upon the belirbt and
weight of children lie Minis tliut tbe
average child of seven years brought
up in a garden town Is three iucbes
taller than the average child of the
same age living In a densely populated
city. At the age of fourteen the dif
ference is still more marked, tbe gar
den town child having tbe advantage
of the city child to tbe exteut of nve
Inches In height and thirty pounds In
weight In some of tbe crowded man
nfacturing towns In England tbe death
rate Is forty for every thousand In
habitants, but in garden towns this
has been forced down to between eight
and Dine a thousand. Leslie's.

FABRIC FASHIONS
FOR SPRING.
Materials That May Predominate
Id Next Ssason's Gowns. -
In a!nkinc of spring styles the Dry
Goods Economist says:
it Is tbe consensus of opluloti among
manufacturers that tailored effects will
lead in tbe orders for delivery during
tbe first three months of tbe new year.
For this reason the cotton materials
which lend themselves most favorably
to these styles are featured, such as
ratines iu the plain, checked and plaid
ed varieties, linens lurgely of ramie
weave, cotton, corduroy, voiles, crapes
and fancy cotton stuffs.
There Is more Interest shown In pon
gee than has been evidenced for the
last few seasous. some of the uewest
models showing the white aud printed
effects combined.
In silks there Is strong fashion In
dorsement for crepes de chlne.crape
meteors also being fairly popular.
Moire, failte and bengnllne are used
largely for trimming effects. Tbey also
appear in the higher priced mercban
dise for novelty garmt uts.
In regard to the populur priced mer
cbondiKe the is a tendency to com
bine fashionable coloring with white
By way of Illustration mention is made
of a white linen dress having the waist
and skirt yoke section of blue. rose,
tan. gray or lavender, the skirt collar
and cuffs being mude of tbe white
linen.
Other sdvaoce models show n short
cutaway coat effect brought out In col
ored linen over the white skirt, the
trimmings on the waist also being
white. Still other white dresses show
only a tow of color, this trimming ef
fect being uoted In the embroidered
designs on tbe waist, in the collars,
cuffs, buttons and belts Colored lln
ens bid fair to be quite popular In the
medium shinies of blue. tan. mustard,
rose, wistaria and other colorings In
favor this season.
In rctlnes tbe color appears In the
small checked, plnlded or striped de
signs. Diue. tan anu dibits uwns luvni-
ly used.
As to voiles, tbe soft shadings arc
usually seen In tbe wide embroidery
designs, these often taking the form
of tbe forty-five Inch flounces. Rose,
yellow, various shades of blue, laven
der and purple are nsed on tbe white,

Ths Lsichhardt Expedition Disappear
d as Thou g n It Hsd Been Swallowed
Up by ths Earth, Which May Indeed
Have Been Its Fearful Fats.
There bare been recorded many
strange tragedies of exploration lu lone
aud distant luuas, but no one event of
tbe kind has ever so stirred men's minds
as did tbe total disappearance of tbe
well found uud splendidly equipped ex
pedition which Dr. Ludwig Lelcb
uardt, tbe Kranklln of Australia, led
luto the central deserts or Australia In
148.
Lelchburdt'a design was to march
right across the continent from tbe east
coast to the west, and as be bad al
ready led a successful expedition near
ly 3.000 miles through a previously un
known part or Australia, it was gener
ally thought that be would be able to
accomplish the task. -
1 Still, there were some who doubted
aud prophesied disaster, and more than
one wealthy friend or tbe doctor' re
fused to suitNcrilKt toward the expedi
tion on the ground that tbey were not
going to Help him to commit suicide.
' The nieiiil-eru of tbe expedition num
bered six whites and two blacks, an
unusually lurge uumber for an explor
ing expedition of this nature, and be
sides being amply provided with flour,
biscuit, tea. sugar and so on. tbey drove
aloug with them afty bullocks and 270
goats. They also bud spare bones and
mules In abundance. . .
At that time the most westerly sta
tion In southern Queeensland was oc
cupied by a squatter named Mcpher
son, who dwelt on Cogoon creek. From
there Leichbnrdt wrote a brief letter as
be was about to start Into tbe nnknown
land Iwyoud.
That wus tbe last ever beard of blui
or of any of his companions, and this
notwithstanding the fact that expedi
tion after expedition was afterward
sent out In search of them.
As completely as though tbey had
been swallowed up by tbe earth, they
vanished.
This Is tbe most .puzzling part of tbe
mystery Its completeness. Bad they
beeu killed by tbe natives, as was nt
first wrongly reported, some relics of
the explorers would long since have
been recovered from them. In some
shape tbe iron work of tbe Implements
and arms they bad with tbem would
have survived.
And what of the stock? Some of tbe
goats, at all events, must bae been
left alive, one would have Imagined,
for these are uotortously hardy ani
mals, able to pick up a living almost
anywhere. Vet none of these, nor any
of tbe ho..es, mules or bullocks were
ever traced.
Tbe probability Is that tbe ill fated
expedition struck one of those water
less patches of country common tn
parts of Australia, luto which tbe
blacks never venture. It Is not difficult
In this case to prophesy wbnt would
have been their fate. . -

Usually half that time suffices
The explorers, we may be sure, would
struggle on to the last, however, hus
banding their wuter to the utterniost
drop. The animals would he the first to
go. and the desperate expedient of
drinking their blood would le resort

Day after day the terrible and pitiless
