tary. correspondent, replying to the
Frankfurter Zeitung's statement that
Great Britain was unable to raise
more than 900, 900 troops, says
I'VE have at the present moment
exactly double that number. namely,
100000 men, and the number grows
almost faster than we can cope with.
This is only the beginning.
It is our way. as well as that OF
America, to begin. to raise our arms
after war breaks out and to go on
raising them until our ultimate ends
are achieved. With 100000 men at
home, the army in the field and the
hundreds of thousands forming in In,

are merely the nucleus upon which
other armies will eventually be built

Here's Prophet Who Says We're Going
ToRevert to Type in Our Walking Clothes

elaborate and intricate" is the prediction
of one fashion oracle. Well, we can
stand the encouragement of the latter
clause, in view OF the winged hope that
appears with the durable street suit
Many of these English walking suits
which are shown have, as has already
been mentioned. the box-pleated skirt.
As for coats. these may be Norfolk or
otherwise, but they are big. and many
Of them have hip pockets supplemented
by a breast pocket. all of which are
roomy enough to accommodate golf balls
tennis balls and extra cartridges.
Let ii not be imagined, however that
these English suits are all merely utili-
tartan. Some, on the contrary, possess
very distinctive smartness and even
beauty. Such, for instance, is the suit
OF rose-colored Kashmir with pleated
Norfolk jacket and skirt, showing groups
of box pleats back and front, which is
put forward by one shop.
With these common sense garments
are worn felt hats that look we'll, either
rain or shine. or perhaps a rubberized
sailor or a beautifully plain Panama.
Frilly lingerie waists are, of course. en-
tirely out of place with the mannish
looking suit. and either the white Ascot
or the four-in-hand knotted under the
collar of the striped China silk or flannel
shfrtwaist must be recognized as their
proper confederates.

And dear .elatiuns mingle into bliss

Any one who has eves toured England
will be impressed by the almost Bud
ihistic calm with which the provincial
EngIishwoman strides over all prevailing
fancies of novelty clothes. fussy suits
and piquant accessories. Watch her at
the railway stations in Salisbury. York
or Lincoln, and wonder at the immuta-
bility Of that tweed butt. that collar and
mannish tie. that big hat with its un-
compromising posies5 says the New York
Press.
Three-tier skirts and fussy boleros af-
feet her no more than a prevailing fash
ion in China. Nothing can disturb the
placidity of her tweed and four-in-hand; /;
it is as much a matter of course as that
at o'clock she should commence to
yearn for tea.
There is something compelling about
this immunity from style" and there
is also something arresting about the
comfort of the Englishwoman's clothes.
And at last the American public, tripped
so long by the French designs, Injured,
too. to the fetters of tightly-girt duvetyn
and brocade, are being brought around
to the strictly taiIor-made.
Yes, there is reaction in street suits,
The English influence is at work in our
costumes, and for a while at least the
public is going to be converted to the
long-wearing tweeds, Donegais, craven
etts and Kashmfrs. We have had enough
of skirts in which we could only hop,
like the trained poodle at the circus, and
this spring We are going to wear not
only full. box-pleated skirts, but intend
to swap the fragile and enfettering silk
petticoat for knickerbockers
Suits are going to be palmer and
more English in cut-frocks even more

Ihis rippled fullness at the back of the

OF some Of the old paintings of Charming
women in riding habits, whose coats in
variably rippled. As yet these ripping

In these heavier materials they are never

ntted with a sort Of half tunic at tho
back, which ends under the seams of the
front panel. This tunic is, of course
loose, and ripples with only a slight de-

In New York she had another choir

The extraordinary phase Of her musical
development is that she began by sing

HOW TO WASH WINDOWS.

Strange as it may appear, there is a
right and a wrong way to wash windows.
and as this operation is usually dreaded.
the following method will be appreciated
as it saves both time and labor: Choose
a dull day, or at least a time when the
sun does not shine in the window. for
when 1t does 1t causes IL to dry streaked
no matter how much it is rubbed. Take
a painters brush and dust them inside
and out. washing all the woodwork in
side before touching the glass. The lat
ter must be washed slowly in warm wat
er diluted with ammonia-proportion. a
tablespoon to half pail OF waterloo not
use soap. Use a small cloth with a point
ed stick to get the dust out OF the cor
ners; wipe dry with a soft cotton cloth;
do not use linen, as 1t makes the glass
linty when dry. Polish with tissue or old
newspaper. You Will find this can be
done in half the time taken when soap is
used and the result will be brighter win
