WAR WRITTEN In SKIES

Paris. Sept. 26.-Some curious effects oi
the war are to be noted in the price oi
things If the moment were not SO sol
emn, so filed with anxiety, for thu
| friends of France, one would be right In
counseling the young women about tC

bargains. She could get her trousseaU
for nothing. The smartest Paris gowns
have never been marked down at so low
figure. Every article of women's ap-
parel is going for a song. If ones wom-
en- folk have so to spend they come back
rich in clothing.
There is something to be learned in
studying the shOps-those that remain
open. To the low prices for articles OF
feminine wear, there is one exception

Mourning, a large stock within" This
familiar sign marks the sad side of war.
There is no color in the hats in the mil
liners establishments; every one has a
black bow Of somber touch.

Don't reveal strategic secrets" he

other things. For instance, there was a

Again, the Tiger declared that three
generals, for exceeding orders, had been
sent down from the front and were now
on the Spanish frontier. His
facts are no doubt right. for the eX-
premier is scarcely a man to print mere
hearsay in a matter of such extreme i'm

Why was not the public told? 1T
would have been comforted by the
thought that the army was in strong and

made mistakes, they were punished

WARNS AMERICANS TO
BEWARE OF GERMANS
Spectator Says Kaiser Will Seize
South American Riches Should
He Win in This War.
HOW ABOUT MONROE DOCTRINE? E?

London, Sept. 2S.-The anti-German
campaign of the English newspapers took
a new tact today when the Spectator
editorially warned the United States that
a victory for Germany in the present war
would result in that country seeking the
riches OF South America and that this
would seriously menace the Monroe doc
trine.
I'VE note" says the Spectator that
the German secret service agents in the
United States are trying to make the
flesh Of Americans creep by talking about
our shortage of rifles. We would ask
our American friends when they hear
such talk. to possess their souls in
patience. AS it happens, we have no
shortage, or anything approaching il.
AS regards the men in action. ready
for action, or likely to be ready for
action for some considerable time, the
rife problem is. however, We admit, a
serious one for all nations which rely
upon voluntary enlistment, as in America.
We should. therefore, once more urge our
kinsmen in the United States to look to
their military stores and to remember
that you may rely upon improvising men
but 1t is madness to rely. as We fear they
are doing, upon improvising rifles, ar
ment.
I'VE implore them to be warned in
time
We are not ashamed to confess that
the military unpreparedness of Amer
leans haunts us like a nightmare. No
doubt, 1t is well night inconceivable that
Germany can now be victorious. Still
II by a miracle, she should win. she un-
questionably would turn her attention to
the great unravaged and undeveloped
riches of South America. She would. in
deed, hardly have any choice but to re-
new her strength there. and then, how
about the Monroe doctrine?
Strange as it may sound to most
American ears and furious as II may
render many thoughtless transatlantic
jingoes, 1t is none the less true that at
this moment what stands between the
Monroe doctrine and its complete de-
struction are our ships in the North Sea
and the battle-weary. mud-stained men
in the British and French trenches on
the Aisne."

Why. haven't any deep laid beauty
schemes" laughed beautiful Miss Paul
inc Frederick. when asked what she
thought about this all absorbing topic.
Miss Frederick is playing in Innocent"
at the EItinge Theater.
To tell the truth, though. do be-
lieve in self-denial. AS far as physl-
cal beauty is concerned one simply must
sacrifice oneself For instance. I new
er eat what I really want to eat. but
frequently when I have been hungriest

RHEIMS CATHEDRAL IN

Paris, Sept 26-Fear that the famous
Cathedral OF Notre Dame will be COM

bardment of Rheims continues was eN-
pressed today. The Temps says:

Potomac Camp. which has come to be
known as the Baby Camp" has started
its winter campaign. Beginning next
month, October !. the camp will meet the
first and third Wednesdays of each

Following the large open meeting
