When the man is 20 years old the water in his body constitutes 63 per cent, and when he is 70 years old the amount has diminished to 68 per cent. The body of the old man is drier and wrinkled. The water content of man closely ] prosimates water contents as they occur in nature. An cgg has 65 per cent water meat has 75 per cent, fish has $v per cent, and mitk has 87 per cent.

New York, June 11—The new €legance in afternoon and evening clothes finds its counterpart in the genuine chic and beauty of things for tha early morning that formerly were utilitarian first and foremost. Much care has been given these morning clothes. Often ginghams, inens, even calico prints are used.

The use of the multicolor- ed strawg for informal hats is grew- ing. They are usually good with several combinations of color and one can get the effect of several by changing costume with them. Striped jereey is a seasonal fab- ric for cesl morning wear. Channel uses blue and white striped jersey as if it were crepe silk. It gives the appearance of a novelty tweed stripe, really. The dress has a pleated peplum, below a band of the striped jersey made on the bias. There is a little uneven col- lar of white pique that gives a note of individuaiity to the dress. Altogether this is a highly prac. tical and charming frock.
