Have Forced Campaigns.

In the last several weeks Carranza
armies have forced campaigns in northern
and central Mexico. which are believed
to have placed Carranza in a much better
position than he has been for some time,
but Villa Representatives in Washington
contend that losses by their forces have
been greatly exaggerated by the Car
ranzistas. They point particularly 10
the case of Torreon, which they say has
rot only not been evacuated by Gen Villa,
as Carranzstas have reported, but is not
likely to be.
Carranza is making desperate dem
onstration in the north, calculated to
impress the pan american powers whose
diplomats are participating in the
peace conferences. Also elsewhere it
is reported that their forces in the past
three days have defeated bandits in
battles between OriZaba and Vera
Cruz. The isthmian railroadat ORR
"a ba, State department reports say, is
being guarded by 5000 Carranza
troops.

REQUESTS the Austrian Foreign
Office to Require Personal
Statement From Him.
INDIGNANT AT PREMATURE
REPORT OF ACTION TAKEN
Reconsiders Giving Statement of His
Position-Exact Date of Depar-
ture Not Determined.

LEMON. Mass. September 1.-THE
Austro-Hunc carian amba ssador, Dr.
Constantin T. Dumba. today announced
that he had requested his foreign office
to recall him on leave of absence IN
order that he might make personal
report on the situation in the United
States which resulted in n request bE
the United States government for his
recall.
In authorizing the Associated Press
to make the above announcement, Dr.
Durnba EXPRESSED Indignation that the
text of his MESA s,e to the Austro-Hun
Earian minister of foreign aHalrs, Bar
on Won Burian, already had become
public without his consent or knowl-
edge.
Reconsiders Making Statement.
In view of the situation" he said. he
probably would not make public the
statement of his position which he had
in mind to give to the American press.
He would. however, have Somethins to
say through the Austrian press when
he reached Vienna. He declared he had
communicated with his government IN
the only way open to him and was
much embarrassed because his message
was known in this country before it
reached the only person for whom 1t
was intended.
DR. Dumba announced that he could
not tell exactly when he would leave
this country, but preparations for
steamship accommodations We're now
being made through New York agents
Mrs. Dumba will leave LenoX tomor
row for Washington where she plans
to stay about a week. Then she will
rejoin the ambassador at New York
and they will sail soon possible.
Passage will be obtained on a Dutch
or Norwegian steamer.
IT may say said DR.. Dumba, that I
have sent this message to our minister
for foreign affairs:
II beg your eXcellency to recall me

port

German Correspondent Admits Rus

LONDON, September IA. l2:O7
p.m.-Iield Marshal Won linden
burg's offensive near Dvinsk,
where the railroad leading from
Wilma to Petrograd has been
reached, again menaces the rail-
way connections with the Rus
tsian capital
The comparative success in
other sectors which the Russians
have gained in the last fortnight,
however, causes the capital to re-
gard the latest threat against it
with no great alarm.
Campaign a Costly One.
British opinion is that the Courland
campaign of the Germans not only is
proving costly in men and supplies. but is
likely to fail unless the Russian offen-
sive on the other extreme of the long
front can be stopped soon.
| By their latest attack in eastern Cali
| penetrated Austro-German trenches in
/ the face of an exceptionally heavy ar
! tillery fire. To the north the Russians
are withdrawing steadily from the dan
gerous Niemen salient. opposing the
| German advance merely by stubborn
rear guard actions.
Riga's Defenses Strong.
After n rhree-day visit to Riga the
| Times correspondent has reached the
! conclusion that the city is in an excel
| lent position for defense. The works in
its neighborhood are strong and well
prepared to resist attack, while the river
is broad and flooded by recent rains.
The correspondent believes the Germans
more likely to seek possession of the town
by an envelopinS movement than by
frcntal attack. The Russians have
stripped the city bare OF everything that
might be useful to the Germans ii its
evacuation becomes necessary. From
half to two-tnrds of the population left
some time ago and there is no sign Of
panic among the people VINO remain.
Altogether, the correspondent de-
clareS, there is more optimism in Riga
than in Petrograd, although the former
city is only twenty miles from the
fighting line.

the homemade look Her secret. rshe win tell you. is the old admonitfon. Keep your eyes open in other words. study the styles carefully. watching iealously for the small tell- tale details that stamp the imported or shop made garment
 Take, for instance. the subject of ruff des. One sees much xhen1stitching and picoting on the fine dresses that are displayed in the salons and shops This is simple way of finishing that is a boon for the home sewer who may. have this machine work done for from 10 to Is cents a yard Then one sees many taffeta bound ruffies that are most atfrac ctIye and an easy task for the dressma kers ~TEere are some rrufTIes finished with smaller ruffies, a method that is tedious, but requires little skill. Watch the fuf1es the next time you visit the stores and see what new kinks you can discover for that new dance dress you are planning.
 Then there is the Subject of full skirts. Fashion has decreed that skirts should be full, but she. has not specified the means. You are free, to discover any clever way that you will for con fning the fullness around the hips and allowing. it to flare at the hem. In sew eral black and white striped skirts an odd effect has been gained by stitching the stripes into p1aits in such a fash
 
 all white. all black or narrower black and white stripes. A white serge skirt that is cut rather full is shirred at the waist. and at the hip line the fulIness is confined by means of groups of four narrow vertical tucks about five inches long. A peculiar thing about the same skirt is the repetition of these same groups of tucks at the hem.
 There is another new touch that one sees on some of the finest gowns-that is the contrasting lining. This method of contrast rightly treated is most ef- fecttve. This is especially the case when white is lined with black. Any cape effect. ruf1le or even a wide circu- lar skirt lends itself to this treatment A dainty pink evening dress with a tunic of deep cream lace has a flying panel that is lined with the palest yell low.
 Buttons are in great favor this spring on account of the new military trend of the styles. There are many novelties displayed in the shops, but these are often beyond the means of the woman who sews at home. This need not hinder her from including a. button. trimmed frock in her spring wardrobe, for she may outwit Dame Fashion with her needle. Embroidery. beads and

 Some of the craft laces hold squares and stripes in their patterns. These may be cut to it any window without marring the lace edge along the stripe or leaving g raw raveling.
 Other designs with conventional flow- ers are easily cut up without interfer- ing with the pattern. and these may be fitted to front doors, French windows stair corner windows, transoms or any other window oddity the architect may have conceived.
 The lace may be shirred on a rod or fitted to the pane quite fiat.
 Craft lace comes in white, ivory, Arabian and Egyptian tints. The last is new eeru shade, and all of these hold their original color under the strongest sunlight and the most dras- tic laundering methods.
 The white and ivory craft faces are very dainty for use in bedroom or din- ing room. while the darker shades har- monize well with heavy furniture of dark wood.

A N old Spanish proverb tells us that
 four persons are necessary to make good salad; "A spendthrifts for oili5 a mfser for vinegar. barrister. for salt. and madnan. to stir it up" # If you are a young. inexperienced housewife remember four things about salad and you will be as successful a .saladist'' as was Trilby:
 First. choose the proper salad for each meal light. plain ones for dinner, dain- highly seasoned ones for evening re- ,pasts.
 Second, make the correct dressing for each salad French dressing usually accompanies the dinner salad. a may onnaise or boiled one for the other oc- casions.
 Third buy only the best materials.
 Crisp tender lettuce leaves form the choicest green for nearly all salads Romaine and endive are also excellent If you are serving fish or oysters buy cress and combine it with cucumbers or tomatoes DandeHon leaves are de- licious in the spring of the year,
 Never make the mistake of serving a rich n1ayonnaise dressing on the course at dinner. Plain lettuce, with a showing of Spanish onion or a few slices of tomato and French dressing, should accompany beef. lamb. veal and most meats.
 At luncheon with chops or steak serve a fruit salad or one made of vegetables and cover it with a good mayonnaise. We may expend our selves when we cook at midnight. for the richer and fancier we make our salad the better. All sorts can be served then. from Dutch potato salad to chicken and lobster salad.
 French dressing for dinner salads is easily and quickly made. In small bowl put one-half teaspoonfulf of salt, a dash of red pepper or paprika. if preferred, one-half teaspoonful of sugar and one quarter of teaspoon full of good olive oil, slowly beating 1t rapidly with silver fork. Drop by drop add two teaspoonfuIs of vinegar last until the mixture forms an ernul- sion. Tabasco or worcestershire sauce in very small quantities may be used if you like a hint of high seasoning. and lemon substituted for vinegar. The bowl may also be rubbed with chives or garlic before the ingredients are added.
