A pet colt was introduced into, the
complaint of Mrs. Sarah T. Langdon
for divorce from Leslie Langdnn. IL
was set up as contributing to one OF
the many acts OF cruelty charged
against Mr.. Langdon. He is thirty
three and Mrs. Langdon nineteen. In
the trial of her divorce action before
Judge Monroe the other day Mrs.
Langdon said her husband threatened
to sell the colt. She wanted to keep
it because she had raised It. His
threat to dispose Of the colt was to
annoy her. she said. and thereby she
suffered mentally.
But you can't always keep the colt

SOME GOOD IN VIVID COLOR
Frsnehnen Found Their Red Caps
Useful in Signaling to Their
Alert Comrades

The French have, with the oncon-
ing Of winter. put into use tho recent
ly adopted great coat for infantry. It
10 not, as heretofore, a dark blue, but
. blue-gray. The French have left
to their British allies the khaki color,
and they could not adopt the gray
green hue which had already been
chosen by the Germans. So they ac-
cepted blue, which is neutral and
from a distance scarcely visible. h
blends with the fog of the morning
and the smoke of battle.
As for red, 1t is now definitely pro-
scribed. The vermilion military cap
is covered with blue So the foot SOL
diers hereafter clothed in shaded
foggy wear will attract less attention
from the enemy. But" says lie Crie
de Paris, ''if red offers in timc of war
greater danger to the wearcr. it may
on occasion present some advantages.
The other day a wounded soldier re-
counted how he and several of his
comrades wandered into a position in
advance Of the French lines. AS they
were taken for Germans every time
one stuck his nose above the trench
they drew the fire of our soldiers. All
ut once an idea came to them. They
put on the ends of their bayonets
their red caps from which they had
removed the cover. The firing ceased
and they were enabled to return 20
their countrymen. This time 1t was
the red that saved them"
