THOSE picturesque sisters Fran
cine and Berthe no longer bring
in the 'eats" at Mime. Granier's
little place. They have gone back home
to France. to Pau. in tho Pyrenees. to
take care Of their old father while their
three brothers are fighting In the war.
While they probably admire the cour-
age and patriotism Of Francine and
Berthe. Nine. Granier's patrons were
certainly sorry to see them 20. not only
because they were picturesque but be-
cause they were quicker and more clever
than the usual waiter girl found in a
table dhote. When Berthe first arrived
from France and took up her duties
she seemed rather duh and slow. be-
sides peevish II anybody wanted her to
hurry But Iatterly she was almost as
clever as Francine. who was really g

Both were dark and Of comedy appear

thority or not. that she might pose for
a statue like that great figure Of Strass-

sun seemed to have tanned her face.
In the summer Nine. Granier's place
is one Of those outdoor arrangements in
The backyard. You have to go through
redhot kitchen to reach the garden.
There is no particular decoration. There
are two white lines OF tables on which

and when made by master hand they
are eminently becoming.
One Of the leading points connected
with the latest millinery models is the
constant use OF large wings on morning
hats and Of the old fashioned ostrich
feather for hats intended for afternoon
wear. Some OF the simple morning
models created by Lewis are delightful
from every point of view. They are
original and they are becoming: In
addition to this they are not extrava-
gantly costly.
Claude Cherys has sketched two OF
the new models this week. Each OF
these little hat Ia trimmed with wings.

THE ELECTION

Two years OF undisputed Democrat
ic sway was enough for the country
and the swing was strong back tow
ard the Republican party. The Dem
ocrats are sincere and patriotic but
the truth is that their theories. when
put TO the test, do not work out.
The great Republican gains are in
the main not due to the strength of
the Republican candidates but TO the
feeling that the country is more pros.
porous and progressive under the Re.
publicans.
The interesting feature of the elect
ion-the practical elimination OF the
Progressiyes as a party With an
issue and a real cause in 1912 they
were strong. Without an issue and
working chiefly as a tail to the Dem.
ocratic kite in 1914, the remnants of
the organization failed to amount TO
much.
1t proves what the Banner has for
some time suspected, that the Pro.
gressives are not party. but a
strong Independent force of voters
who intend to cast their votes on the
side of right and patriotism, but who
resent attempts to deliver their
strength to any order of the party
organization.
The Republicans should be warned
by the turn in their favor They did
not keep faith with the Republican
voters in 1908 nor in 1912 and they
were overwhelmed. If they have
leraned the lesson and will profit by
their rebuke the country viii gladly
give them new lease of power.
