accounts by hundreds and hundreds of millions

The total economic burden in all forms that
alcohol lays upon the shoulders Of America
in the course of year, according to my fig

OF the great word war for the first year
We have, it is estimated, over 100000 heavy

life is to get money by any sacrifice so that
they may procure this drug. These heavy
drinkers and drunkards average but three years
OF life apiece; SO in order 70 recruit the vast
army of slaves the liquor traffic maintains
about 100000 temperate regular drinkers,
which may be likened unto quarter or half

most exclusively from the boys.

.Il- HIS is the sort Of collar that they
go wear" said our saleswoman at an
Il exclusive accessory shop. 1t was
u,.-eIv two LAYERS of chiffon, with hand
whipped edge in sailor collar shape, and was
% he worn with soft silk or crepe blouse
or even with the slightly more dressy striped
taffeta blouses.
"You see" said the lady. who takes her art
seriously, by the way, women to-day wear
nine tailored suits to one elaborate costume
And nothing but plain collar can be worn
with tailored suit. Blouses are almost always
plan. the effect being almost that OF the sport
blouse. as suits approach the sport style
Most of the women who come in here wear
sort of modified Norfolk jacket So this col
lar is the correct one; or, if one prefers high
collar, there is the plain white satin stock or
white satin stock with simple white turnover"
THE TENTH SUIT.
But there is always the tenth suit, which IS
not sportlike in severity. There is the eiaoo-
rately rippled, the Russian, the chiffon velvet
and the newest conception, the all silk suit
And it is for these suits that collars in great
variety are designed Take, for example, the
collar that was QlSpldyeu dIono III HH6~
crystal case The stock of it was black satn'
and at the top was fine accordion pleated
rufle that fell in cavalier point Below was
another ruffle, also of ecru colored point d'es-
prit, in larger cavalier points. On an elabo-
rate blouse for suit that approaches more
closely the old-fashioned reception costume
this collar would be charming 1t is also quite
wearable with an afternoon gown that is high
in the neck.
These elaborate collars take their models
from all ages. One can point out Goya, Rem
brandt, Reynolds, or leave off the collar and
find Raphael. Even the Elizabethan ruffle, the
most naively sophisticated neckpiece of all
ages, finds its timd imitator to-day, slumber-
ing peacefully beside the demurest of Quaker
fchus, just gathered in bit below the Shout
der, as a touch of modernity And some of
the collars are true to all periods at once, i'm
partially. There is something startling in a
collar that starts in with the simplest Of ,Soo's
black velvet band around the throat, and then
suddenly takes to itself purely modern roll

The vast liquor forces do not hesitate to boy
colt mems business. undermine their fnanea
standing and crush out their political sspH'I
tons il they dare oppose them.
However, we really have no option in u'
solution Of this problem. The stupendous &C.
generacy vote that liquor has already creates

was degeneracy created by liquor which over

free governments that have persisted. In1

America is serious menace to our precious
liberties.
Nations must become sober or perish. In'
human race must become sober or become O.
tinct. This is the reason why every ciyillIe
nation is now graphing with this problem
The mortality Of nation, through acon0

are to-day about 100000 deaths in Amen"

drop to about 100000. In other words, aO'''
100000 American lives are brought to an w
timely end every year in order that fe" 0''

Alongside this slaughter the slaughter sOn'
on in Europe is comparatively small iD'
slaughter by alcohol in America averages ne1
