Everybody knows that there is nothing
in a namc-ard that there is everything
in it,
The story is told of the opening in
Paris last month of Doucet Doucet fea-
tured certain shades of tan, and some
Of the buyers objected, sa wing that sand
color had been killed by popularity. I'm
mediately the ready French explanatio
was given that the color featured by
Doucet was not sand color, but khaki.
And khaki. they explained, should be
popular because it was military color
Now in America we have all grown
tired Of the war. without doubt We
have heard so much about the effect it
might have in making America a fashion
center. We have seen so much of military
braid. and Tommy Atkins hats. we have
heard so much of battleship gray and
Belgian blue-that we have grown tired
of the mixture Of war and fashion that
is served to us in our frocks.
But Paris. apparently, is vastly inter-
ested in the war SO far as its effect on

Monday, March IS, 1915.
According TO astrology this is a day
for caution, since Saturn and Venus
are strongly adverse.
The lunation of this day takes place
with Saturn and Neptune in a sin
lister position. while Venus and Uranus
are conjoined in the fourth house.
This is read as Indicating a general
outlook that is not reassuring since
it indicates epidemics of disease, espe-
cially those that affect the lungs.
There is persistent indication that
the postal service will meet extraor-
binary financial difficulties. This con-
dition will be produced by unexpected
circumstances. it is foretold.
The foreign outlook is said to be far
from encouraging for the next month
While American commercial interests
will improve in some respects. new
dangers. not hitherto deemed impor-
tant, will develop.
During this month the United States
and other places under Gemini will be
unpleasantly affected by the malign
influence of Saturn.
There is a prophecy that scandal
will arise from the administration of
certain large charities Graft and bad
management will be revealed. There is
indication of serious difficulties among
members of Parliament in Great Brit
ain. Descensions over the war policy
are prognosticated.
The stars are read as prognosticat-
ing war complications. The seers de-
clare that the young men of the ma
ton will be called on for defensive
service.
The spread of peace propaganda will
he aided by military agitation and
war possibilities. astroloGers predict.
Persons whose birthday il is have
the augury of an unsettled year in
which money losses are probable.
Those who are employed should be ex
ceedingly careful.
Children born on this day probably
will have many vicissltudes in life.
There is a sinister sign for domestic
happiness. Girls should be guarded
against marriage with an incorporate
man.

year-round department with facilities for

What are some of the specialties that
you expect to offer to the women OF
Washington was a question that the
representative of the Woman's Herald
put TO Mr.. Sissman and Mr. Conn
That question was asked before the
questioner stopped to think that
woman's clothes. like the daily news. are
something that one does not know about
beforehand.
Not 4 single thing is bought or or
dered for our store" Mr.. Sissman an
swered. We have our representatives
In New York ready to act on an hours
notice. And We shall not have them
place a single order till within tn, Short
est possible time before our opening.
No one knows for a certainty what Is 60
ing to be the latest fashion 4 month
from now. Styles are changing every
day in New York at the present time and
by fixing our opening as We have we
shall he able to get the very latest show
ing of New York fashions. What there
is from Paris We shall have also. but
Paris doesn't count for so much this
year II Is to New York that We are
looking for our inspiration at the pres
ent.
-'One thing that We are going to make
n speciality of and that is clothes for lit
tie women-the woman who sometimes
has to give up the idea OF buying ready
made clothes. simply because they are
fitted to models that are too large.
Sometimes a woman with white hair will
take 1%-year-old size. We are
going to fit her in womens clothes. not
with suits or dresses designed for a
child. And we'll have special clothes for
the large woman. -
But especially what we are going to
do is to make this a true speciality shop.
to carry clothing that is different, that
is original and that will suit the differ
ent indvidualities and varying tastes of
the women of Washington"

DENIES CHRISTIANITY FAILED.
Pastor Adds Certain ex-President
Has Outlived Fame.

"A distinguished ex President, who
lost a splendid chance for Immortality
by not dying a few years ago. before he
went of after the vagaries Of so many
isms and fads. has been proclaiming that
the European war has shown the fail
ure OF the ethical teachings Of Jesus
Christ" said Rev. Edward X. Hardin.
pastor Of Mount Vernon Place Methodist
Episcopal Church, South. in a sermon
yesterday on the text, THE firm foun-
dalton of the Lord standeth."
He was admirably answered" the
minister continued. 'by the secular pa
per Life. by the simple statement that
You can't blame the doctor IL you don't
take his medicine. The truth of the mat
ter is that the world has never tried the
ethical teachings of Jesus Christ, and
until those teachings are given a fair
trial II Is foolish for any one to prate
about their failure Or collapse. The edi-
tor OF Life was right. You can't predi-
cate the failure OF Christianity upon tho
European war. because the men who
made the war did not take the principles
of Christianity into their calculations"

gress bf the work of the joint Lesis-
lative Aommittee now AT work revising
those Ikvenue laws of the State If
fected the new tax system.
Mr. Ieezell has followed the work
teJ(n pains to tapulate the result. He
il not enthusiastic about the new tax
laws, finding that the state will lose
in revenue, while real estate and tan
glbie personal property owners have
gained no advantage and must bear
whatever rate be demanded to meet
local requirements" Owners OF money
and intangibles. he finds. will gain.
The laws as enacted said Mr.. Kee-
cell. applied to the different classes
of property taxable by the state briag
the following results:
Reduction of o. cents on each 800
OF real estate. mineral lands. and tam
gible personal property shows a loss
to the State of $1.637 75o.55.
The total amount OF money assessed
In 1914 was s25.S20,aTs. The loss to the
State of Is cents on each 800 OF this
class amounts to S4h.33l4e. making the
total loss to the state. on money. tan
gihie personal property. and real es-
tate, $1.e7S4S201. To this amount
should be added the loss to the State
on railroads roadbed. assessed real es-
tate. etc. at ss5,5o2.ss6. OF $213,T5+ss.
making the total loss to the State on
the foregoing items Of s1,se2.23S.70.

Interesting, in view of the State SOW
ereignity argument against a PROFIT
hition amendment to the Federal Con-
stitution, Is the fact that of the 1877
votes In Congress favoring the Hob
son resolution SO were cast by South
ern members. Eleven of the sixteen
Southern States lined up in its sup
port. some unanimously, others by 4
ma jority vote. OF the los representa-
tives from Alabama Arkansas Flori-

IN favor of 81 against. and most Of the
seven not voting were paired for tho
amendment Taking the nation at
large. as represented In the House. the
vote stads thus: Eighteen States SOL
idly for the amendment, eight solidly
against 1t; twelve States a majority
for. nine a majority against.
We believe that majority vote OF
eight In Congress means more than
the guess OF the members as to this
opinion OF their constituents; we be-
'lieve 1t indicates that the people Of
the United States are ready for ma

believe with the Chicago Tribune that
