GERMAN VOGUE" NOW.

Berlin, March 19.-German mods.
ties and milliners are taking advan-
tage of the war and the consequent
shortage of French clothes and fash
ion to further the agitation that is
now general for the creation of a
German vogue" in hats, dresses and
other articles of wearing apparel.
Berlin is being urged as the future
fashion center" in place Of Paris, and
German women are asked to wear only
such clothes as have been made in
Germany, by Germans, or German ma
terials. Even the men are to be APP
pealed to to influence their wives and
daughters in the right direction.
In the past, it is declared, the pub
lis has not properly supported the
handiwork of German milliners, even
when they have turned out "confec-
lions" quite as good as those of theil
partisan sisters. Women are asked
now to turn their attention more close
ly to home talent" The milliners, in
their turn, are urged to pay greater
attention to variety in styles and
tastes.
The German manufacturer, it is
claimed, will produce first class MILL
merry Just as soon as he is assured of a
market for it. Heretofore he has been
discouraged in this because the Ger
man woman have shown a preference
for French goods whenever the price
was approximately on a par with that
of German things.

Bedtime Stories
For Little Folks
THE COMPLAINT OF THE WILD
FLOWERS.

Once upon a time there was a beau
tiful garden filled with flowers. Every
day they were tended and the weeds
and stones taken out so that the roots
of the flowers would grow and give
forth blossoms and sweet perfume.
On the other side of the fence there
grew a wild rose bush and other wild
flowers.
"Oh, dear" sighed the wild rose one
morning as she peeped through the
fence and saw the gardener tending
the flowers in the garden. IF we
only had the care the flowers on the
other side of the fence receive we
should be as beautiful as they are. -
Yes, am sure Of that, Wild Rose, -
said a wild honeysuckle. Il am as
sweet as any of the cultivated vines
and yet no one thinks of admiring
me-"
A laurel bush lifted Itself and said:
my color is as delicate as any of the
flowers on the other side of the fence,
yet who thinks of giving me water
that | may grow more beautiful. If
only we had a chance we would grow
and be as beautiful as the cultivated
flowers"
A modest little violet raised her
head Il really do not feel that
should speak to you, who are so far
above me in reproving manner" she
said timidly. But did you ever stoI
to think how strong and brave VIC
wild flowers are?
when the storms come and tbs
wind blows we bend and sway, but W.
do not break, and when the storm II
over and the sun shines again WHIT
lifts up their heads to greet him ant
who feels the first warm rays he send
forth, the cultivated flowers or w
who brave the storms and winds?
Look at the garden on the othe
side of the fence after storm. Tn
gardener goes among the flowers an
ties up the broken ones and pick
from the ground all the storm-beate
flowers that will never bloom agar
Sometimes the flowers he ties to
stick and tends carefully SO they wi
have the courage to grow again, bu
not often. They do not know how I
care for themselves as we do. We ar
