EMPIRE BAG HERE TO STAY
In Present Stage It Is Thing of
Beauty and Joy Of the
Season.

There is no end to the variety OF
form and color assumed by the ever
increasingly popular empire bag. In
its present stage it is a thing of beauty
and joy of the season, though, being
child of Dame Fashion, it cannot be
a Joy forever.
You have no idea how much money
can be centered on the development or
these handsome and thoroughly charm
ing envelopes. Costly gilt ornaments
are seen on many of the mtCe elab-
crate ones, some of which are made
entirely of gold, silver, copper or steel
colored lace. Semi-precious stones
are used to carry out flower pat
tern or to highten the effect OF con-
yentional designs. Inside are trap
pings of silver, gold or ivory, tiny
vanity cases, mirrors, powder puffs.
lip pencils and the like.
Another idea that has caught the
fancy of the woman who counts not
cost, is an empire bag of brocade,
either velvet or satin, to match her
hat or its trimmings. Usually this
hat is one of the small bonnetlike
models edged with bands of fur, such
as moleskin, Persian lamb, chinchilla
or ermine. A band of the fur outlines
the bag and the flap, which buttons
over envelope fashion. OF course, the
plainest of autumn suits would as
sumo smart tone when worn with
such ultra fashionable foibles.
Bags of broadcloth of the same ma.
terial as the suit have deep chenille
fringes around the sides and bot.
toms, and correspondingly plain
mountings of gun metal, old gold or
frosted silver

SAVE MONEY ON STOCKINGS

Many women do not give much

matter. But more can be saved by
tudlcious selection than is thought,
and in the course of a year or so this
saving mounts up.

Favorite Dishes.

A woman who enjoys having
friends to lunch or dinner has the
happy faculty of hitting on just the
things her guests enjoy eating. For
some years she has made it a point
to jot down the favorite dishes of this
friend or that in a tiny note book in
her desk. When her cousin Molly is
coming to lunch she looks up her
name, and there finds recorded that
the aforesaid Molly is particularly
fond of custard desserts of any kind;
clam is her favorite soup, and in.
meats she dotes on anything cooked

SEATTLE WATER.
FAMINE RESULTS

Seattle is in a pretty bad way on
account of the recent water famine
there, according to reports received
from the officers of the Honolulan this
morning.
Business naturally is quiet, and will
be until the water supply has been re-
stored While the Honolulan was at
Seattle she suffered a lot of inconven-
fence She was not allowed to take
water on at Seattle, but was forced to
proceed up to Tacoma to fill her tanks.
The people. of course, are being re-
stricted in the use of water. On the
streets at any hour of the day automo-
biles, buggies and other vehicles may
be seen carrying water from Lake
Washington, or any other water sup
ply that is handy, for use in homes.
The water from Lake Washington has
to be distilled before being used, ow-
ing to the many impurities in it.
With the limited quantities that peo-
pie are allowed at their homes, the
greatest care has to be taken of it.

The installation OF molasses tanks
on the Hyades. it is expected, will be
delayed about three weeks, owing to
the effects of the water famine. Work

BERLIN, Germany, November 21.-
It is becoming increasingly apparent
that the questions of Anglo-German
relations and comparative ornaments
can not be eliminated, in spite of well
meant efforts to confine the present
political campaign to internal issues.
The recent disclosures in the English
press Regarding the defensive meas
ures taken by the British government
during the Moroccan crisis have con
WINGED the public that for time the
two nations were not far from the
brink of war. That the feeling of riv-
airy between them must be reckoned
as a permanent factor in the interna-
tional situation is reflected in the
attitude OF all factions except the So
cialists and radicals.
Advocates of stronger navy are
using the situation to renew their de-
mand for an extension of the building
programme and the national liberal
party has made navy expansion one
of the chief planks in it's platform
Herr Basserman, the leader of the
party, in a speech which is widely
commented on today, declares that his
followers demand not only a strong
army and navy, but a government
which knows how to make the right
use of them"
The statement which the British
government is expected ito make next
week in regard to its part in the Mo.
roccan affair is awaited with keen in.
terest, as, in view of the aroused state
of public feeling, it might make the
question of international relations a
dangerously prominent factor in the
campaign.
