The Spanish influence in fashions OF
the day is more evident in evening
gowns than in others, although it
nay be detected everywhere. A model
recently shown by a famous New
York house developed the idea in the
cleverest way in an evening gown
made of tlesh-colored satin and
canary-colored tulle. The skirt was
full, round and short, cut true to the
original form, and two wide bands of
gold applique and rose brocade
adorned it. One of them was placed
at the height of the knee and the
other halfway between this and the
girdle, which was of the same band
ing. The bodice was merely a baby
waist of the satin.
The canary tulle yelled the skirt
with full overskirt, cascaded at each
side. and 1t covered the bodice, falling
in ripples over Il g top of the girdle.
A red rose was worn in the hair, Span
ish fashion.
The gown of light pink satin pic
tured here is less full and less short
than the model just described, but be-
longs to the same style. The plain,
moderately full skirt is caught up at
each side with silk ornaments and

Bitter Cure.

A grimly humorous incident of the
war is told in letter written by a
soldier to his mother in England:
There's one chap in our company
that's got rippin' cure for neuralgia,
but he isn't going to take out pat
ent because it's too risky and might
kill the patient. Good luck's one of
the ingredients, and you can't always
be sure of that.
He was lying in the trenches the
other day, nearly mad with pain in
his face, when a German shell burst
close by. He wasn't hit, but the ex-
plosion knocked him senseless a bit.
My neuralgia's gone, says he when
he came round. And SOS six of your
mates said l. His names Palmer,
and that's why we now call the Ger
man shells Palmer's neuralgia cure. 4"

which a rose made of the coral ribbon
is set.
At the right a turban is draped
with plain blue velvet and Roman
striped plush, and trimmed with a
band of dark hackle feathers in bronze
and iridescent colorings. The scarf
is made of the plush and lined with
plain blue silk.
FIr is so universally used in winter
millinery that it has been an easy
matter for the designer to fashion
three-piece sets, consisting of nat,
neckpiece. and muff employing velvet
and fur in combination. These sets
are very smart with tailored quits.
The hats are usually small and so
are the muffs. The neckpieces are
high and NV of them are much longer
than necessary to reach comfortably
around the neck.

WITH THE SUBMARINES
WHAT 1T MEANS TO DO SERVICE
IN THE IRISH SEA.
Work on Deadly German Implements
Of Warfare Anything But Pleas
ant for the Crews of
the Boats.

A gray shadow nestled over the
North sea. No other sound than the
splashing of the water against the
steel body of the U-boat could be
heard. Slowly, slowly, darkness gives
way to the friendly light of the COM
ing day. Ghostlike the submarine
glides over the dark green waters of
the restless North sea, the search
lights following as long as darkness
reigns.
Along the coast in the early morn
ing we see the big Krupp monsters
opening their mouths, awaiting the on
slaught of the enemy's navy. We
hear the sailors and marine infantry
tramping to their daily tasks; now
and again the sound of command
on land reaches our ear. On the quay
we see our men-of-war, their cannon
looking out of the gun holes as much
as to say, I'VE are waiting"
Behind the portfolios of the subma-
rine the sailors rush to and fro and
the sentries at the tanks keep silent
watch, their loaded rifles always
ready to shoot. Short commands and
the Ginning of the signal bells put us
on our guard; the eyes of the men are
on the glass plate on which the COM
mand is inscribed whenever the COM
mander moves the lever.
We are going now forward at full
speed to meet our prey. Hours and
hours pass and our boat is still above
the water, steering towards the Brit
ish coast, but no enemy as yet is in
sight. 1t seems as if our little boats
had driven them away and into safe
harbors. Merchant ships appear, but
they move cautiously in the now dam
gerous North sea.
A day has passed, the sun has set
and darkness again rules over the
dark green waters. In the tower the
commandant and chief engineer are
examining charts controlling the man
on the lookout, taking the glass to
search for their prey.
We have now arrived in the heart
of the enemy's waters and have to be
doubly cautious.
Again hours passed. Attention! a
ship is in sight, its lights are dim and
the U-boat follows in its wake; an
other signal and the little monster
makes ready to fall upon its prey.
Signal after signal follows; the gaso-
line motors stop and electricity does
its work. the U-boat dives; nearer
and nearer it comes, unbeknown to
the vessel that is in danger.
The vessel is called on to stop; it
tries to escape ana a wellaimed shot
from the submarine crosses the bow.
If the ship attacked pays no heed to
the command of the U-boat the signal
is given, the torpedo is fired and the
enemy ship, man-of-war or merchant
vessel, has done her last sailing

There is story connected with the.
Russian prisoner who is shown here
in the custody Of Teut6hic captprs.
Before the war the prisoner was
known as Madame Mario Mako, the
wife of Russian junior officer When
war was declared she changed her at
tire, cut her hair and Joined the army.
All the rigors and hardships Of the
different campaigns and the trench
life did not bother her in the least
and her sex identity was secret to
all but herself. Then shes was cap
tured and, along with the rest of the
prisoners turned over to the German
sanitation corps. All the prisoners are
forced to go through the disinfecting
station, where they battle and have
their clothing disinfected When
Madame Malko's turn came the truth
leaked out.

The story of this winters styles in
millinery will soon be closed to make
way for that Of the styles designed
for tourists wear. Palm Beach has
bestowed its world.famous name on
this class of hats and they are inter-
esting in themselves, and as harbin-
gers of spring, whose influence will be
felt in it's modes. But the millinery
of the hour displays the high standard
that was set for harmony by the intro
duction of the hat with neckpiece to
match, and now to these is added the
veil to match also.
Neckpieces to be worn with mid
winter hats are made of some ma
terial appearing in them and take the
form of ruffs, boas, or scarfs, with the
preponderence of favor given to ruffs.
An example of each of them appears
in the group of matched sets shown in
the picture above.
The familiar ostrich neckpiece is
worn with a wide-brimmed dress hat
trimmed with a cluster of four short
plumes at the front. Below, at the
left, is a.small felt hat with round
crown and graceful upward-turning
brim. A band of velvet in black and
one of faille ribbon in coral pink cover
the side crown, and fat bow of the
ribbon covers the mounting Of an or
nament of steel and fur at the front.

cords, suggesting the cascade drapery.
The bodice is cut on the same simple
plan as in the gown just desciibed,
with girdle shaped in the same way.
Chiffon roses, tied with narrow velvet
ribbon make a pretty finish at the
waist, and folded tulle is set in the
neck and sleeves.
A small fan and rose in the hair,
worn with this lovely gown, ado just
the right finishing touches to give the
toilet an enticing flavor of old Spain.
While the skirt is longer and the bod
ice higher than extremists are affect
ing, these two features add youthful
ness to a modest and very clever
adaptation of the mode.
