The Burlingame peopie have adopted a = L 4 Sompon ey YBorens style all their very own. In fact, it is known in the shop as the *Blingum.” The same frock is worn, but the coat i different. In the first place, it is always blue. Just a dark navy blue. A Ilittle double-breasted affair that just covers the skirt and allows the bare legs to peek out. ¥ h the exception of white braid on the large collar and two white flags on one arm, it is absolutely without adorn- ment. And vet it is swell. Its very sim- plicity makes it so. Another coat of blue is made to fit snugly. The ripples are cut in the skirt, but the waist is plain One lamge pearl button serves as a headlight, and certain- ly it does not do anything else, as smaller ones under a blind button the coat. In- stead of blue stitching white silk takes away a little of that somber appearance t is so apt to come with dark color. But all coats are not made of blue nor of dark colors. Tan is a great favorite and is particularly fetching when it is made after the Gibson fashion.

Agafn if the material is heavy and will not slip on easily a soft silk is chosen, but the color “1s not considered. And hats are another consideration. Well yes. Many & costume has been made or marred with less than a hat. Linen ones are made for the boys as well as for their sisters.

The young man who plays with the girl of fashion must have. everything just so, his clothes must be just as fashionable as his companion’s, and just as attractive for that matter. So for a dark blue coat he wears a dark blu¢ hat. The brim is rTomasing Sl of ’%; BRrogy At W rg.. Cof Turme =) FRorm l"""flfif(.. very broad and rolls decidedly. The crown is rather low and has a soft piece of satin ribbon that ties on one side and hangs over the brim and often touches the shoulder. All that navy may sound very dark for a child, but remember that the very best designers say that young people are the only ones who should ever wear black or dark colors. Their com- plexion is fresh and soft and will stand it, while it often proves exceedingly try- ing for an older person. Exactly the same hat is made in white with a dash of the blue around the very edge of the brim and the ribbon is of the blue as well. The larger these hats are the more becoming they are to the ma- Jority of children. But many times they ‘would not be appropriate. Then the linen comes in. Just a White linen or pique and stitched many timés. Naturally they are smaller as the material would nost admit of too much breadth. Somet'mes the crown .is made of the white and sometimes It is made of patent leather. Just whatever pleases one’s fancy the most, but those made of the one matertal are more serviceable. Both be washed and that means a great deal with little people’s clothes, Of course it that all th s with socks and patent leather boots.

Queer FactsS of RBreathing OW often will a man breaths in H a lifetime and how much atr do you suppose he will breathe in during the period of his natural life?" asked the youns man who has s penchant for statistics. “When we begin to figure on the thing we are almost in- clined to believe that the windpipe is & very much overworked organ. It is gen- erally agreed that an adult, under normal conditions, will breate nineteen or twenty times during each minute, and it is esti- mated that with each respiration a man will inhale about one pint of air. There are 140 minutes in a day’s time, or twen- ty-four hours. Assuming that a man will breathe twenty times every minute, we find that in twenty-four hours he will have breathed 28,800 times. In a month's time, or thirty , the man will have breathed 400 times. lowing days for a year, we find that he will breathe 10,512, n from January to Janu- ary. Take thirty-five years as the aver- age lexggh of a lit and we will 92¢ a man will breathe ,000 1 > be 50 years old he 0,000 times, and if he ripe old age of 100, which he w have breathed Now how much air will that time? One -pint for Roughly speaking, it n that under normal conditions an a will breathe about 10,000 qus of air every venty-four hours, or about 2500 gallons. This is about 300,000 quarts every thirty days, and about 8,650,000 every year. If a man lives to average adc 5 vears. h athed dur: 127,750, rts of air, or about 31.932.500 gallons, which is several barrels when you come to think of it. Of course, I have made no allowance for many conditions which/necessarily enter iato one’s breath- y results are merely ap- ere is, for instance, t difference between the breathing of the adult and the child. While a grown per- son will breathe nineteen or twenty times every minute a child will breathe any- from twenty-five to thirty-five V¥hen we consider that one-third, at least, of the average life is included in the child estimate we can see that the total would be much greater than I have given it. There are times, too, when under excitement, or when rish, o when the system is otherwise stimulated out of its normal relations, the breathing is greatly quickened, and so these Influ- ences would again tend to increase the total which 1 have given, both as to the number of times a person will actually breathe in a lifetime and as to the quan- tity of air. Jut the figures will serve to give you an idea of the assault each man makes on the air about him, and, If you will pardon the slang, they will conwie, all of just being just a little windy.
