C G Abbot director of the Atro-physlcat Observatory of this city who wassent by the Smithsonian Institution toFlint Island te make observations ofsolar eclipse which occurred January S

arrived home Saturday He reported atthe institution yesterday

The astronomer says the expedition wasIn every way perfectly satisfactory bothIn results obtained from observations sadas to climatic conditions during the pe-

riod of the eclipseOnly Spot Where VlKlIilc

The place selected for the expeditionfor observing the eclipse was at Flintbland the onlyspot on land from whichthe phenomena was visible

Flint Island said Mr Abbot is sit-

uated in the Pacific Ocean ten degreessouth of the equator and is 408 milesnorthwest of the island of Tahiti ThisIsolated sittt which is twotadonehalfmiles tons and onehmlf mfle wide is

by fifteen negroes and one white

manThese negroes are employed by anEnglish company engaged in exportingcopra or dried kernels of cocoanuts Thewhite man is their manager

Mr Abbot related an Incident showingthe isolation which is experienced by thesolitary Caucasian In the place-

I brought along with my personalstores a quantity of New Hampshire ap-

ples said the astronomer and offeredone of them to the white manager of theindustry carried on in the island He wasdelighted to fee them aad said he hadnot seen or eaten an apple in fourteenyenta

January dawned cloudy We bad rainduring the early part of the day Ashort time before noon however theweather became fair

In my position about lASS yards northpf the station chosen by the lick observ-ers I was able to obtain perfect ob-

servations of ute ecitpse The totaleclipse lasted three minutes and flftytwoseconds

Mr Abbot explained the workings ofthe sensitive instrument used by himknown as the betometer by which he wasenabled to observe the change of tem-perature He made this observation withthe aid of a reflecting telescope twentyinches in diameter He said the maininterest in the ettpse was in determining-the intensity of the different colors oflight given off by the corona

lleport Will He of InterestOn the whole continued Mr Abbot

the appearances of this eclipse werequite different from any I have ever seenbefore

He stated that the full report of theobservations made by him would be pub-lished In the near future He feels sureit will contain much of interest to foreign-as well as American astrophysicists in-

asmuch as it will help them to understandbetter the nature of the suns corona

FROM WO MAMSPOINT OF VIEW

There is any fault to be foundwith extreme simplicity but an over-dressed house interior is like an overdressed woman something more than asuggestion of untidiness Women lose adeal in effect by too many ornaments andtoo much drapery and the work of caring for a home Is correspondingly Increased

There used to be a erase for drapeddressing tables and a few oldfashioned

still cling to them But drapetables and canopied beds seem to belongtogether and neither are as sanitary aswellshaped and wellkept tables of woodcovered with a scarf in washable ma-terial and set out with the various toiletarticles of the uptodate woman Bedsare preferably light in construction andsimply dressed with a cover and valanceand pillow slips for day use or a flouncespread with a bolster covered to match

Window draperies should be light andeasy to launder and bare floors with rugsare preferable to carpets or mattingOn principle the less furniture in a housethe greater the comfort of its inmatesbut there ought to be a distinction madebetween plainness and ugliness Theeare the days of high prices but it isquite possible to have an artistic andpretty at a surprisingly low

a woman wilt buy earefuAy andchoice to a few goodwearing ar-

ticles

The beginning of a home is a sleepingreom and the kitchen eom s next Onemust have shelter even though food hasto be sought outside so a good bed isthe first purchase Many women thinkthey ntust have hair mattresses whetherthey can afford them or not but they areperfectly content to spend the summerwhere hair mattresses are unknown lux-uries The spring Is of more Importancethan the mattress and the bed clothesdeserve some considerable attention

Simplicity is the keynote of many man-sions as it is the basis of good dressingThere are a few humble homes whosewatts are plastered with meaningless pic-tures but in the homes of the rich eacharticle 18 allowed a chance to speak foritself Plants and open fires are wonderful additions to a home and if ex-travagance is ever permissible it ig inthese two items I am sorry to see theneedlework craze turned to poor accountfor there are so many chances for it inreally worthy places that it could flourishwithout the ski of numberless couch pil-lows and table covers

Monograms are well enoughbut they are not necessary on handtowels and napkins It is bettor to knowhow to do nest repairing on worn gar-ments to darn and to make common ar-ticles of everyday wear than to makelace and embroider Learn mil you can ofcourse but use judgment in taking advantage of knowledge The wife of abank president is Justified in spending hertime at lace making she can af-ford to hire others to look after her homeduties but a worklngmans wife has athousand for her time and a hostof homely tasks requiring immediate at-tention Certainly her home should besimple and her time and shUt are needed
