TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, APRIL 18, 1907. A IT 18 HOPELESSLY HAMPERED BY THE STIFF WHITE SHIRT. Ik« War Thia Oarmaat ls«er«eres With Both Health aa4 Cosafnr«. Roar of the 4hoar4ltlea of the Pres- eat Mescaline Style of Attire. The necessity by which men feel co erced of proving to the world that they wear white shirts lies at the baals of • II the difficulties of the dress problem. Until the garment becomes extinct It Is hopeless to attempt the reform of men’s dress on the lines of health and comfort. It will of course ultimately disap pear, for It Is but the mark of a stage In the evolution of dress. Just as the vermiform appendix is a useless evolu tionary remnant in the body. But the question Is whether we ought to await the slow course of evolution or to use our common sense and abandon the ancient garment at once. Why do we wear white shirts? Ages ago It was only the wealthy who could afford to clothe themselves In linen. The possession of linen underwear was then a mark of social position, and there was an obvious advantage In making public display of It. We may put down three-fourths of the discomfort of tbe hot summer to the account of tbe starched shirt. It prevents the very process devised by nature to keep the body cool—the evap oration of sweat. In so far as It hin ders this natural process In summer, the white shirt favors disease. But In whiter It Is a fruitful cause of Illness. In winter the mere wearing of a white shirt would no doubt leave a man no better and no worse If he were content to wear It for Ills own satlsfac tlon. But the curious law of evolution comes In and compels him to wear It In such a way as to do himself physical Injury. Wherever evolution is at work It leaves vestiges- literally, footprints. Probably It is millions of years since the vermiform appendix became a use leas organ, but It still survives. All evolutionary survivals appear to be harmful. Tlie appendix Is the seat of appendicitis. In the Inner corner of the eye there Is the remnant of a once useful third lid, which now only lodges dust and causes Irritation. The lord chancellor's wig was once a comfort In ancient drafty legislative chambers and now merely ser-ves to make a sensible man look ridiculous and give him headaches. People who drew up laws were long ago paid a.vordlng to the number of words, but the multiplicity of words now only causes confusion. So the white shirt that was once a badge of wealth and culture, being no longer of value for tliat purpose. Is only a cause of discomfort and disease. It Is necessary to cut a piece out of the vest and the coat. Just over the most Important orgnns of the body, In order to prove to our neighbors that we wear white shirts. Consequently In the winter time we expose the lungs and tbe air passages to tbe cold wind and the cold rain. From the point of view of health nothlug could lie more stupid. Bron chills la one of tbe moat deadly of all dlaeasea In thia country. Bronchltla Is simply Inflammation of the bronchial tubes. Thia Inflammation la excited by a chill, u chilling of that part of tbe body left exposed In order to show that we wear white shirts. The white shirt. In fact, might ap pear In the tables of the registrar gen- eral as the cause of so many deaths, perhaps 100,000 a year. And does It really Improve a man's appearance? By virtue of the associa tion of Ideas It certainly does. Usual ly men who do not wear white shirts are not given to cleanliness. The man who wenrs a white shirt washes his face and hands and brushes his clothes; hence when we see a white front and white cuffs we exi>erlence that pleas ant sensation produced by general neatness of the person and clothing. But that a few square Inches of white clothing over the cheat makes a man look better la an absurd conclusion. The case for the white shirt has not a leg to stand upon The garment Is uncomfortable, unhealthy and unbe coming And aa It haa lost the only useful function It ever possessed that Is, Its symbolism of exceptional wealth —we ought to discard It altogether The difficulties of thia course are very- great no doubt. What we want Is an •'antlwhlte shirt society," which would agree to wear, from some prearranged date, a dress designed wholly with re gard for comfort, health and beauty.— T.

Mea It to in August that tbe naturalists observe the marvelous Insect which ta bom, reproduces anil dies in the period I of a single night on the banks of the Marne, of the Heine and of the Rhine. It 1s the ephemere of which Sirammer- dam has written and which ta spoken of In Aristotle. The life of this Insect does not last beyond four or five hours. It dies to ward 11 o'clock In the evening after taking the form of a butterfly about six hours after midday It ta true, how ever, that before taking this form It has lived three years In that of a worm, which keeps always near the border of water In the holes which It makes In the mud. Tlie change of this worm In the wa ter to an ephemere which files Is so sudden that one has not the time to see It. If one takes the worm In the water the hand cannot be taken away before the change ta made unless by pressing the worm slightly In the region of the chest, By this means It can be taken from the water before the change takes place. The ephemere, after leaving the wa ter. seeks a place where It can divest Itself of a fine membrane or veil, which entirely covers It. This second change takes place in the air. The ephemere assists Itself with the point of Its little nails as firmly as It can. It makes a movement similar to that of a shiver; then the skin on the middle of tbe back breaks apart, the wings slip out of their sheath, as we sometimes take off our gloves by turn ing them Inside out. After this strip ping the epliemcre begins to fly. Some times It holds Itself straight up on the surface of the water on the end of Its tall, flapping Its wings one against the other. It takes no nourishment in the five or six hours which are the limit of Its life. It seems to have been formed but to multiply, for It does not leave Its state of a worm until it ta ready to deposit Its egg«, and It dies as soon as they are deposited. In three days’ time one sees appear and die all species of ephemere. They last sometimes until the fifth day, for the reason that some malady has af- fected some of them and prevents them from changing at the same time as the others. A STUDY IN EYES. Michael Angelo had hazel eyes. Mohammed had coal black eyes. Milton had gray blue eyes, clear and round. Beethoven hnd small brown eyes, very mobile. Itante had, according to Boccaccio, targe black eyes. Isaac Newton had blue eyes, amali. bright and piercing. Cowper, physically timid, had weak blue eyes devoid of animation. Harvey, the discoverer of the clrcu- tatlon of the blood, had small eyes, full of spirit. Carlyle's eyes wore described as "the very handsomest ever seen In a man’s head dark blue.” Bismarck had eyes of steely gray, deep sunken, almost hidden under bushy eyebrows. Dr. Johnson's poor health so affected Ills eyes that they were dull and life less, of a watery blue. Hlchellen an Editor, The first reporter of France was Louis XIII. Tbe National library pos ■eases the manuscripts of thirty-six ar- tides written by that king. Almost all are accounts of his military operations. These articles were published In the Gazette de Franco The “copy,” how ever, did not go directly to the printer. Louis XIII wrote altomlnable French, and he bad vague notions of orthogra phy. His articles were corrected and often entirely rearranged by a secre tary named Lucas, who copied them, sending to Richelieu the new manu script. Richelieu exnmlned It in hta turn and often Introduced additional corrections. At the siege of Corbie the king wrote a few lines eulogistic of the cardinal, but afterward crossed them out of hta article. Richelieu wrote them In again, and so they appeared in the Gazette de France. Revue de Par Is. The "Man” Who Mings the Cows. In the Basque country the children begin to work at nn early age.
