Use of United States Col
ors on Cunarder Stirs
Much Comment
HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE
But Not in the Case of a Mer-
chairman, Washington
Officials Say.

London, Feb. S.-American Ambas-
sador Page today forwarded to Wash
ington report of the Lusitania flag
incident. The ambassador informally
reviews the alleged use of the Ameri-
can flag as related to members of the
embassy by Americans who crossed
the Atlantic on the vessel
Page has not communicated with the
foreign office regarding the incident
and as yet no confirmation concern
ing the use of the American flag by
the British vessel has passed between
the American and British govern
ments. The British government stout
ly maintains that the captain of the
Lusitania was not ordered by govern
ment officials to use a neutral flag.
Flying of the American flag by the
Lusitania is regarded by the English
newspapers an incident of great i'm
portance. It is not expected the gov
ernment viii take further action un-
less Washington requests an explana-
ton.

Washington, D, c., Feb. S.-A report
| from Ambassador Page on the hosting
of the American flag on the Cunarder
Lusitania was expected here today. It
was stated, however, while no report
had been called for, one would be ask
ed if the ambassador did not send one
today on his own initiative. 1t was
also expected a British admiralty
statement on the incident might come
to the state department later in the
form of an official communication.
While the incident was discussed with
interest in official and diplomatic
quarters there were no indications as
to what development it might take.
Naval officers recalled that the navy
regulations permit a warship to fly
another flag than its own. but sRecif- |
cally provide il must be hauled down /

recalled no case, however, where a

It was recalled today that when

PERFUMES AND THEIR USES

ONE of the effects of the war in this
 country is that fastidious women miss the a1luring toilet things to which they had become accustomed. Most of these little requisites had become in expensive in comparison to what they used to be before American manufac- turers began to put up goods as at tractively as the foreign producers and as satisfactory for temporary use, al- though lacking in the pungent. lasting qualities.
 The shops along the Rue de Ia Pafx and Bond street with names above the door that are upon the labels of the hagons and little chests that ornament the dressing tables of palaces through out Europe have left their spell on the senses of American women tourists. Many are they who while abroad have secured a tiny bottle Of some foreign named extract which has fingered in their belongings long after they have returned to the gasoline scented atmos- phere of home.
 Many of these goods are not procur- able in even the great shops here and are not known except among those who live most of their lives abroad where these articles are put up in large quan- titles for individual buyers rather than for the general trade.
 There is a great deal of choice aA to perfumes among the different nations.

FRUITS. ITALIAN STYLE

ENOR the many who prefer cooked to
 raw fruits the various delicious ways known to the Italians may be re- ceived with pleasure.
 Different from the usual apple sauce is this method of cooking: Pare and quarter apples of any size, drop into a saucepan and for every six apples add the juice of one orange and quarter of the peel sliced with the pulp. If not sufficient juice a little water may be added and granuIated sugar to taste. Cook only until the apples are tender, but not long enough for them to lose form. Pears cooked the same way are very good
 Apricots, fresh or dried, are cooked in the same way. If dried, soak for eight or ten hours. Place in baking |pan. cover with sugar and marsalIa wine or a good quality of sherry. Place in the oven, cook until soft and juicy, basting occasionally. P1ums will be found equally as good cooked as the apricots.
 Prunes, always seasonab1e. are won derfuIly delicious when prepared in the true Italian way. Soak overnight prunes of any size in sufficient red wine to cover the fruit and for each pound of fruit add half a. cupful of granulated sugar. Cook until tender and add more wine if much juice is desired. Just what the wine does to the flavor of the prunes it is difficult to say, but certainly they are well worth trying. Dried cherries, as well as the fresh ones, are good cooked this way, and blackberries stewed with

France and Russia using great amounts which cost fortunas each year. Spe- cialists are employed, by the leading manufacturers, who spend their lives travelling. about studying and perfecting new effects and combinations that are experimented with in fragrant labora- tories.
 It is only within comparatively re- cent years that Americans have begun to understand the potency and power of perfumes and scents. For a long time their use was considered barba- rous and in bad taste, and even today there are those who shudder without quite knowing why as some drift of lilac or Spanish leather comes to them when lady passes by their table in a restaurant
 Books have been written that tell of the mysterious power that perfumes have upon the health, the spirits and the appetite. Invalids are revived by them, and the smelling bottle, which used to be regarded as the crowning bit of nonsense in a woman's accouter- ment, is now admitted to be among the saving forces of life.
 Dhe prejudice against the use Of per- fumes. has gradually yielded to intelli~ gence, and the domestic producers are now placing their goods on the coun- ters at prices which make them possi- bIe for women with limited means

THE LAST WORD IN GLOVES

back of the wrist of the glove. These are new, and with the lace medaIlioned gloves and those embroidered in gold and silver thread are-in the SIP to SIS clas&
 The woman who is clever with her needle and who owns some heirloons in the shape Of lace medallions may buy a. pair of long white gloves and put the meda11ions in herself, thus se- curing for the outlay of $3 or $4 a pair of gloves that will rival those selling at high prices in the shops.
 Very smart are the Newport gloves. They are white with black stitching on the back with a gore starting on the outside from the wrist of black kid running the length of the gloves, wid- ening out at the top, which is laced in with a little white silk cord, tied and finished at the top. This may or may not be laced and unlaced each time the glove is drawn on or off, as it may be laced and left the right size if desired.
 The West Point gloves of black are trimmed with white pointed trimming like the, cadets uniforms and instead of having the buttons snap catches like the ordinary gloves they fasten with crossed straps.
 For the wear of ordinary persons who need a serviceabIe as well as a smart appearing glove the washable kid gloves are recommended highly. They are a long one button model and may be washed right on the hand with cold soapy water applied with a clean sponge and dried off with a towel This is done quickly, and they are ready to wear in just a few minutes. All the other washable gloves need a longer time for drying.
 S Chamois and -doeskin are as popular as~ ever this year and always wash well, the chamois being specially serv- icable if chosen, carefully and made to order. One firm makes the channels gloves to order at the same price at which they sell their stock gloves.
 Among the cloth gloves for summer wear, which each year have gained in popularity, there is now included a so called reindeer" which is wonderful cloth fabric. It is cut in the same mod el, as the expensive kid walking gloves with the gored thumb and fits beau tifu1ly. It washes in cool, soapy water and wears most satisfactorily, selling at $1.
 Silk gloves for the season follow all the winter fashions in models and trimmed styles, though the conserYa- tive woman will probably choose the black or white rather than the fancy and extreme styles in colors and make Those who object to the feeling of siIh gloves on the hands will find soft gray suede gloves in light weight to be the coolest gloves to wear. They wear well and require but little cleaning and go with almost any costume.
