SAYS WEALTHY ENGLISH "WELCH"
 ON WAR TAXES
Sir Edward Clarke Would Make Those Who ''Put on
 Airs Pay Heavily.

London, Oct 25-sir Edward Clarke, the great English legal au- thority, is of the opinion that the ac- cumulated wealth of the country, pay for four or five times over the estimated cost of the war; is not con trfbuting it's proper share to the war taxes.
 There is one large part of that accumulated wealth which during the lifetime of it's owner pays nothing at all to the National Exchequer," he Writes ''I refer to the enormous sum Which is represented by the stores oE works of art, furniture, books, plate china. glass and jewelry which are to be found in the houses of well-to-do people. The pleasure and comfort and the advantages in social position which man or woman derives from these is as much an annual profit as the dividends would be if they were sold and the money invested in stocks or shares.
 eI suggest that the owners of prop erty of this kind should be obliged to make a statement of it's value, and ($1,50O) four per cent on that sum should be treated as income and added to the owners assessment for income tax. This would bring in a very large immediate revenue, and a still greater benefit would be that we should have register of the property on which levy might after wards be made"
 Having laid his scourge on the wealthy class, Sir Edward proposes to tax one of the little vanitfes of the middIe-class which finds expression in bestowing fancy names on their homes.
 Rows of small dwellings can be seen where no street number appears on door or gate, but some aristocrat- ic or romantic name has been adopt ed," he says. The smaller the house the more splendid is it's title,''
 He would make those who put on airs in this fashion pay $5 a year for the privilege.

By the end of the seven teerith century, however, the Indian potation has achieved popularity among all classes in England The largest punch bowl ever used was that utilized at a party given at Ali cant by Admiral Edward Russell 221 years ago today, Oct. 25s 1894. when a marble fountain was converted for
 the occasion into a punch bowl The ingredients used in brewing the punch Included four hogshead of brandy. one pipe of Malaga wine, 20 gallons of lime jufces 2,5OO lemons

ToDAY's POEM

 The World is too much with us; late and soon. Getting and spending we lay waste -~ our powers; Little we see in Nature that is ours; We have given our hearts away, sordid boon. This Sea that bares her bosom to the
 moon, The winds that will be bowling at all
 hours And are up-gathered now like sleep ing flowers, For this, for everything, we are out of tune. It moves us not-Great God! I'd rather be A Pagan sucked in a creed out worn,- So might I, standing on this pleasant lea, Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn; Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea- Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.

Duke John Albert the Agent of Kaiser
 at Constantinople

Duke John Albert Mecklenberg- Schwerin, who was sent to Constan- tinop1e not long ago to act as the per sonaI rel presentative of Emperor Will E1ian1. is 5 years old today The Duke has had experience as a ruler, for he was regent of Mecklenberg-Schw for several years during the minority of the present Grand Duke Frederick Francis ". When the late Grand Duke of Mecklenberg -SchWerin died in 1897, Frederick Francis had just passed his fifteenth birthday. and his uncle, Duke Jo14n Albert. reigned in his stead until the boy heir to the grand ducal throne attained his ma jority. John Albert was very p opIllar during his regency, and enjoyed the confidence and respect of the people of the little German state which has an area of a little over 5000 square miles and a population of about of a million. In 1907 he again became a regent, this time Of Brunswick. and reigned over that duchy until 1913. when he was sue ceeded by the Kaiser's son-in-laW, Prince Ernest August of Cumberland, Duke Sof Brunswick. In appointing Duke John Albert to the. Constantino- pie mission, with full powers to at which has arisen between the Otto- man and Genan officers, the Kaiser was doubtless influenced by his friendship for the Duke The latter is about the same age as his imperial master. and the to soldiered together in the Hussar regiment when both were young men,. Duke John holds the rank of general in the Kaiser's army, and held several positions of trust before he was sent on the Turk ish mission In~.'wel eltpolftik' Duke John Albert has been noted for many years as the bitter enemy of England and all things English, He has never lost an opportunity to sdenounee the British government, people and insti- tutions.

 Pleafs always change the plain effect of separate skirt and are invariably becoming. This three piece model meets all of the fashionable demands because it lends itself to deyeIopment in the smart materials. is of conven- tent length and proper width. It closes at the left side under a pleat. The plain belt adds to the trim effect of the skirt. but this may be entirely trans formed by the addition of bit Of ern- broidery or braiding. For medium size the skirt requires 2A yards 54- inch material.
 If one has never had any previous ex perience with cutting out a skirt there 1s surely nothing about this model to cause misgiyings, The first step is t. carefully fold the material; then place into position first the back gore Of the skirt. The front edge of the pattern will rest along the selvage of the ma terfal and the side edge on the fold 1t will be necessary to piece the sides to give the required width. so the piecins Is placed opposite the front gore and just before the belt.

EARL or DERBY

Edward George ViIliers Stanley, who. as seventeenth Earl of Derby,
 holds a title 43O years old, is expected
 to make an able and highly successful recruiting chief, the pos ito which he was appointed this month by Lord Kitchener. The recruiting problem has become a serious one in Great Britain, and before his appointment as the head of that department the Earl
 of Derby had demonstrated his fitness by the results he had obtained in fn- fIuencing his countrymen to enlist. The Earl is fifty years old, and has long been prominent in public life. Thirty years ago he joined the Gren- adler Guards, and in 1889 he came to America as aide-de-ca mp to his father. 1886 to 1883. The late Earl died in
 1908, when the present Eard succeed ed to the title. Prior to that time, as Lord Stanley, he had served in South Africa as chief press censor and private secretary to Field Marshal Lord Roberts in the Boer war as financial secretary to the war office to 1905. He was a member of the House of Commons from 1892 until his elevation to a place among the Peers. The Earl is the owner of an estate of 60,00O acres in Lancas shire. including the Liverpool docks. Last Winter he organized the dock laborers along military lines. putting them into uniforms and imposing a certain amount of discipline, with the result that the men were inspired to vastly increase their working efficiency with the knowledge that they were serving their country as well as themselves and their employer. The EarIs work along these lines was rewarded by the l King with the Order of the Garter. 1 The Earl married the eldest daughter | of the seventh Duke of Manchester 1 and has two sons and one daughter.
