BUTTER SIDE Ur.,

Certainly it was an 1T wind that famed into a confederation the smou1- dering fires of war in Europe.
 But just as certainly that i'll wind must blow us good.
 Europe's bane will be America s boon, despite the inevitable fact that we shall pay 9 part of the cost.
 Prompt measures have been taken to secure to the United States a great portion of the British and German trade with South America and the Orient, and from this expansion New England will benefit vastly.
 There is no reproach of seIhshness and the wish to take unfair advantage in this; it is an economic necessity, stronger than sentiment. War in Eu- rope has paraIyzed the worlds mar kets, and America must supply them.
 Tn 'tCollier's Weekly of August 29, Isaac F. Marcosson contributes an article that should be read by every advertising man. Here is his sum ming up of ultimate losses and gains.
 Ultimate Losses.
 1. A decline in exports to Europe of high-class goods.
 2. Loss of the service of many skilled workers, especially Germans who have gone back to fight
 8 Advance in money rates. which will mean increased cost of manufac- tl1re and possibly higher cost of liv- ing.
 4. Heavy shrinkage in national revenue. due to falling-on of inn ports
 5. A probable fomenting of the labor unrest when the fighters come back to America after the war Of say age hate.
 Ultimate Gains.
 1. A merchant marine that will restore the supremacy of the Alneri- can shipping flag to the high seas.
 3. A notable increase in export trade. especially with South America and with regions hitherto undevel- oped by American business.
 B. A new and more commanding place in international finance and commerce.
 4. An increase in output and use at home of domestic products as sub- stitutes for foreign made goods.
 5. The ultimate ability to pay our debts to Europe at a discount.
 G. Our securities will probably have a stronger position abroad than ever before, because we s1zs-a be about the only war-proof country.

THE wonderful new fur-cloths are SO
i like the skins which they initiate
that they appear in all outside gar
ments made up with genuine furs used
as trimming. They do not suffer in
the least by comparison with these.
The owner of coat made of ex-
pensive fur sometimes finds drop of
bitterness mixed with her pleasure in
1t. The thought of the number of
small animals that must be sacrificed
or more often still, the thought that
the finest Of furs are not very durable,
are disturbing to ones peace of mind.
Now that the new fur-cloths have
proved such triumph with women of
fashion they may have wraps more
durable than natural furs, longer lived
and quite as beautiful, without regrets.
Another good feature of the fur
cloth wrap lies in the fact that it may
be altered in shape to conform to the
altered lines of the styles as new sea-
sons arrive. The altering of fur gar
ments is an expensive undertaking on
account of the difficulty of matching
and sewing skins No difficulties of
this kind are met with in handling fur
cloths.
A very handsome coat of broadtail
fur-cloth is shown in the picture given
here. 1t is cut on straight lines, far
ing toward the bottom, and finished
with collar and cuffs of real chin

Fear of the Automobile.

Child training, especially when 1t
runs counter to the impulse of free.
dom, Is a difficult work. But one of
the first things the child learns is
fear Of death. One mother makes
careful practice of reading to her two
small children every newspaper &C
count of the death of child under an
automobile. She leaves out any hor-
rible details of the accident which
might injure the childs sensibilities,
but she impresses the event on the
child's mind by giving the name of the
unfortunate victim, it's age and as
nearly as possible the location of the
accident
Both mother and school teacher
may impress on the child mind the
dangers of the streets and cite daily
examples of the result of child care
lessness. 1t is one of the best means
by which the youngsters may be con-
yinced of the need for exercising eau.
ton.
The killing of children under the
wheels Of automobiles has started
with the coming of summer, and more
are likely to follow. Keep the child
informed Of the manner of each acct
dent.

ing her. Who the deuce was that man
--ah-no, it could not be-yes, by
Jove, it was, thought One of his ten
ants with whom he had scarcely
spoken. A fellow who lived below the
studio. He put supporting hand be-
meath Old Nita's elbow. One by one
the lights were being extinguished by
Mikey, till only a single lantern
burned near the exit.
Hurry up, now!" admonished the
proprietor.
Going, Ireland; good night" re-
sponded Hill smoothly.
Just then the door to the little inner
room was opened and three figures,
one of them the woman's, hooded and
yelled, appeared directly in their path.
How much, Mike?" said Rowe, STEP
ping forward. Then he caught sight
of the old woman, and stood for an
instant as though transfixed with
alarm. At the same moment she saw
his face, and her own became hV1d.
Rage, fear and hate were lurking there,
and shaking herself free Of Hill, she
sprang for Rowe, her old hands curled
like the claws of some vicious bird OF
prey.
"Devil!" she screamed, have I
found thee at iast?"
With an oath Rowe Tended her of,
his forearm striking her stunning
blow, and then, quick as a cat, he over
turned the last remaining lamp, and,
seizing the yelled lady, pushed to the
outer door, Sancho, who also seemed
to recognize the old woman, preceding
and opening it hastily. Old Nita,
stunned by the blow, fell to the floor,
while Hill sprang at Rowe-but too
late. For a fieeting instant the Span
iard's face could be seen, sardonic, un-
earthly, in the white light from the
street, before he slammed the heavy
door to, catching Hill on the jaw with
the edge of it. Then he was gone with
his companions, while over the dark
turmoil and confusion in the bar lin
gered the echo of q laugh, mirthless
beyond description.

,THE velvet hat, having been made in

THE velvet hat, having been made in
every shape with which we are ia
miliar, now appears in novel shapes
that we have not seen before. So far
nothing has appeared to supplant it, al
though there is whisper in the air
that those who like to be different
may soon choose hatter's plush, bright
finished felts, or hats of bright finish
combined with suede leather.
But if one admires velvet and is
looking for novelty, two out of the
three shapes pictured above are GER
tainly odd and picturesque enough to
fill the requirement. The third is a
standard shape so good that nothing
will ever make it unpopular.
The daring and dashing helmet is
reflection of war times and an extreme
of the military mode. Minus the chin
strap, there is no reason why it should
not prove a successful model. 1t is
military enough without this extreme
and incopvenient accessory. The stand
ing cockade of Spanish coque feathers,
and the bright silver braid, look quite
warlike without the strap. 1t is a
shape for youthful wearers who are ex-
cused for running into daring ex-
tremeS.
A beautiful new shape is pictured
with soft top crown, a wide collar for
a side crown and square brim turned
I'D on three sides This is handmade
shape, moderately large, with the up
turned portions of the brim curving
