é~ 16 How Thin People Can Get Fat, Free. Startling Effect of N ew Discovery W hich Puts Flesh on Thin People Increases W eigh t and Per fects The Figure. P r o v a I t B y S e n d i n g C o u p o n B e l o u i tot* A 50e. P a c k a g e , F re e . 7t remarkable, scientific treatment has been found which increases the w eight o f scrawny or thin people, puts flesh on those who hare been thin for years, whether from disease or from natural tendency; on those who by heary eating, dieting or other methods, have in rain tried to get fat; on those who feel w ell but can't get fat; and ou those who don't feel w ell and stay thin. Th e new treatment N the last couple of years the hand em broidery craze has been spreading un til now every woman who cares to make a good appearance, without being e x travagant, appreciates these dainty little touches to her garments which hand em broidery adds. T h e work itself is very fas cinating, and many a dull and tedious hour during the winter months can be spent very profitably on this kind of work, and any I one can render themselves proficient in this kind of needle craft with due persistence and a little time. N o wardrobe is complete nowadays without one or tw o pieces of clothing bearing this evidence of daintiness, and to make everything as simple as pos sible we are offering our readers of this page a pattern which can be very easily transferred to any kind of fabric or wood, and which should appeal to every economi cal woman, in the fact that it would make a clear, clea n -cu t pattern tw elve or more times. W e will he pleased to furnish our readers with these patterns for the sum of ten cents in stamps o r coin, and would be glad to have them give it a try-out and see if it is not the most convenient they have ever used, as well as the most economical. ,V ^ ^ ^ A ^ y y y y y y y no. 10.106 P r o t o n « . th e R e m a r k a b le T is s u e B u ild e r , B u ild s I |> Cases l.ik e T h is In R e m a r k a b ly Q u i c k T i m e N o 1 0 . 1 0 « - T h r e e D e s ig n s B r a i d i n g B o r d e r simple, dainty, popular.

B H E N you look at the Eastern sky in the early evening ia N o vember you will notice a small group o f stars covering a space a little greater than that occupied by tbe new moon. A ll are intensely white, but they are o f low magnitude for the most part and seem to shine through a kind o f veil o f suffused light. There are six stars readily visible to the naked eye on a clear night. Persons o f exceptionally good eyesight may see from one to five more. There is an ancient legend which was current among the Greeks that the Pleiades were seven sisters, wtjo fo r their goodness and beauty were placed among the stars One o f them, however, loved a mortal and. in consequence, retired abashed from view. Hence, no more than six afterward were risible. H o w this le- end originated would require more space or discussion than may be given here. It is enough to say that those persons who declare that they can see the seventh star are by no means agreed as to which is the star o f the several hovering on tbe edge o f naked-eye visibility. T h ey often still are called the Seven Sisters. A good opera glass will show about twenty stirs. W ? N n . 1 0 .1 1 1 P a t r i o t i c D e s i g n f o r S o f a P i l l o w T o p .

A small telescope will show additional stars, until, in the great observatory tele scope-, no less than two thousand are to be seen. Observations begun more than sixty years ago and patiently followed, showed, when about fifty years had passed, that there .was an actual association among the star*, that is, that they are revolving about each other. The displacement was o f the very slightest after those years, so slight, in fact, that it could not be meas ured. answering to what is called, in chemistry, a trace. It is clear from this that the evolution must take a vast period o f time, numbering tens o f thousands o f years. W hen we reflect further on the giant masses o f these distant suns and re flect that even at a distance o f thousands o f millions from each other, the revolu tionary movements most be many miles a second, we may gain some idea o f the stu pendous scale on which is constructed this object which glitters as an ornament to our autumn skies. The whole group, or at least a great part o f it, is wrapped in glow in g hydrogen. The name Pleiades, notwithstanding the pretty legend, is de rived from Greek plrion ‘sail," from the fact that the easily recognized group was o f great use to the sailors in those davs Page. before the magnetic compass. From the earliest days they were noted and many religious observances marked fheir appear ance in the evening sky. The H allow e’en observances and, stranger still, the date we have chosen fo r our Novem ber elec tions, may be traced to the ancient regard fo r the Pleiades. T h e Pleiades belong to the constella tion Tarus, the second constellation o f the zodiac. Follow in g them, at about an hour's interval, is the sister group, known as the Hyades. This is a V-shaped figure, having at the end o f one arm the great red star Aldeharan. The Hyades were sisters o f the Pleiades, according to the ancient legend, and were foster-mothers to Bacchus, after the death o f his own mother. Aldebaran is receding from ns at the rate o f thirty miles a second, but being already more than a hundred mil lion miles away from us, its rate o f reces sion will not make any difference in ap pearance fo r very many thousands o f years. The star next to Aldebiran is one o f those rarities, a naked-eve double. That is, it appears as a single star on o r dinary occasions, but on exceptionally clear nights it is shown as a pair o f glit tering stars very close together. The whole group is extremely beautiful and interesting and well repays study.
