time. The lamps. speedometer clock
and license had been removed, but in
spite Of the change in the appearance
OF the machine, Simpson thought he

tiled the machine when he examined
the numbers Of the motor and engine.
Detective Sergeant willy later searched
Wtlltams's house, and there found one
OF the lamps. the clock and Simpsons
tire pump. Tho man was using the
license issued to his wife some time

chased another car. but that 1t had
been taken back by the dealer when
he failed to pay for It. Williams and
Albert claim to have purchased the
machine from n man in Petersburg, but
they were unable to say who he was
or TO produce n receipt.

ISSUES WARNING AGAINST
FOOT AND-MOUTH SERUM
state Veterinarian Directs Attention to
Disastrous Experience In
Illinois.

Here's n queer state OF affairs" quoth
DR.. J. G. Fcrncyhough. State Vete-i-
MARIAN. scanning report he had just
received from tho United States Bureau
OF Animal Industry Yesterday afternoon.
Here We have an official report of the
reTnarka BILE instance OF the euro for
foot-and- mouth disease being as great
a menace. IL not greater. than the NAL
ady itself
Herds OF hogs in several counties
Of Illinois have been infected with dis
ease by serum administered as n pre-
tentative. The serum was infected.
Fortunately, the discovery comes in time
for us to take precaution against n
similar outbreak in Virginia. Let every
stock farmer In Virginia take warning.
Ny earnest advice to cattle and hog
raisers is that before they inoculatc
their cattle and hogs with the proven
tattve serum let them communicate
with the United states Bureau Of AMI
NAL Industry, Washington, stating
where they purchased the serum they
are about to use and when. The warn
| Ing does not apply where tho serum
has been obtained through the Virginia
! Department OF Agriculture. but many
OF the cattle raIsers buy serum from
other sources. The serum that has
caused the trouble in Illinois was dis
pcnscd In Chicago"
DR.. Ferncyhough said that Virginia
has been absolutely free from foot land =
mouth disease since last March. Not
single case has existed here since
that time. BY taking proper prccau-
| lions. he added, the disease can be kent
| out of the State.

An exquisite afternoon gown com bining crepe, Georgette, taffeta and chiffon, all in the color known as wistaria, might be just as pretty de- yeloped in others of the fashionable colors. But it could not be prettier In season when one is almost be- wfldered by the diversity of style here Is gown to swear by. It is excel lent in lines and composition and it is adorably refined.
 The moderately wide skirt is laid in plaits about the waist at the sides and back, with the front left plain The plaits are not stitched down, ex- cept at the waist line, where the skirt is joined to plain blouse of chiffon. A very wide border of taffeta, finished with three-inch hem, is set on at the bottom. Above this, at an interval of three inches, second band of taffeta appears. It is about four inches wide and finished with narrow machine stitched hem at each edge.
 The sleeves of chiffon are cut full at the top and narrowed from the elbow down. They are long and close fitting about the wrist, terminating in

In neckwear the introduction of black velvet or black satin, with sheer white fabrics. has brought about some very beautiful novelties. Many of these are in the effect of the choker collars, like those so fashionable on coats and cloth gowns. Others open at the front in a narrow V, like those shown in the picture.
 The high-necked models give oppor tunity for becoming management of lines to adapt the collars to either the long or short neck. In one model. called the "Brinkley." in honor of the famous Nell, there is high collar of black satin laid in irregular folds and wired to stay in place. It is heightened into points at the front. and these points extend below the line of the neck. This satin band opens at tue front in V. in which the points do not quite meet at the bottom. It over laps a crushed band of very sheer or gandie which extends across the front space.

GREAT NEED TO STOP WASTE
Lesson That Should Be impressed on America by the Frightful
 War in Europe.

Waste is the crime of today, and 1t is especially the great crime of this awful war: waste in human life, in hope, in love. and in the common savings of us all. Millions of dollars worth of the savings of the people of this earth, all of them our brothers and our sisters, are daily burned up, exploded, and wasted in the madness of the nations; and even that is a trif1e when we compare it to the great human value of the lives that are lost. It will not make any people rich; and we Americans, rarely fortu- nate in not being involved in the aw. ful strife. shall find our part of the burden to bear Some time the war will be over, and then waste must stop; it must stop if we are to ad. vance in humanity and civilization over and beyond the yawning gap made by the lust of blood, pride of race, and the vanity of kings. The war has been in progress but little while and already the cost of it is be- ing borrowed from future generations; extra hard labor and sweat must come from infants now at their mothers breasts. to make good this debauch of blood and fire And in the very measure that we waste is the sentence at hard labor upon the ris- ing generation prolonged. We cannot get out of it by being American the debt is upon us. in unequal measure is is true, but the debt. the obligation to make up the losses. is upon us all. Atlantic

a small shaped cuff piped at the end with the taffeta. A narrow taffeta band combine; them at the wrist, and they wrinkle along the arm in a way that is very soft and pleasing to the eye.
 The collar is a band of taffeta em- bellished with a simple pattern in em- broidery. This embroidery reappears on the over-bodice of taffeta at the waist line.
 The over-bodice is a seamless model which fastens at the back, where it narrows to wide girdle with ends that make soft, hanging loops. It's edges are finished with narrow pip ing of the taffeta.
 No gown could present more useful features to the needlewoman who is considering the remodeling of last years dress. Narrow skirts may be cut up into borders and bandings to use on the crepe or satin or light wool fabric for this years skirt. And from last years bodice, by one of the sev- eral jumper patterns to be had of pat tern companies, an over-bodice for this years gown may be made.

light. Pitchoune, moved from his usual indifference, gave a short bark, walked up to the ladies, and began to snuff about their feet. The younger lady exclaimed, and then Sabron, lift ing his hat, came forward, the crimson color beating in his dark tanned cheeks.
 The Marquise d'Esclignac held out both hands to the officer:
 Its nearly noon," she said, "and you don't forget that you have prom ised to lunch with us, do you, Mon- sieur le Capitaine?"
 Sabron, bending over her hand, as sured her that he had not forgotten. Then his eyes travelled to her com panion. Miss Redmond wore a very simple dress, as was her fashion, but the young officer from Africa, who had not seen her near by until now and who had only caught glimpse of her across the opera house, thought that he had never seen such a beautiful dress in all his life. It was made of soft gray cloth ana fitted her closely, and in the lapel of her mannish little buttonhole she wore a few Parma vio- lets. He recognized them. They had come from a bunch that he had sent her the night before. He kissed her hand, and they stood talking together, the three of them, for few moments, Pitchoune stationing himself as a sen- tinnl hxy Dal, ct
 The Marquise d'Esclignac rose The young girl rose as well, and they walked on together.
 Mes enfants," said the Marquise dEsclignac, don't go with your usual rush, Julia. Remember that Monsieur | de Sabron is not as strong as Her | cules yet. I will follow you with Pitchoune."
 l But she spoke without knowledge of the dog. Now feeling that some un- wonted happiness had suddenly burst | upon the horizon that he knew, Pit choune seemed suddenly seized with a 1 rollicking spirit such as had been his | characteristic some years ago. He tore like mad down the path in front 1 of Sabron and Miss Redmond. He whirled around like a dervish, he dashed across the road in front of l automobiles, dashed back again, l springing upon his master and whin- ing at the girls feet.
 "See," said Sabron, ''how happy he is."
 q should think he would be happy. He must have a knowledge of what an important animal he is. Just think! If he were man they would give him a decoration"
 And the two walked tranquilly side by side.
 | Pitchoune ran to the side of the road, disappeared into a little forest all shot through with light. He came back, bringing the remains of an old rubber ball lost there by some other dog, and laid it triumphantly in front of Miss Redmond.
 "See," said Sabron, The brings you his trophies"
