lERE are three hats which stand for
II three very distinct types In the
new millinery for spring. But they
have several features In common
which mark the incoming styles.
They are elaborately made and they
are considerably trimmed. There ia
a reaction away from the severely
plain hats with single and some
times minute decoration, such as
grew tiresome during the past winter.
At the left of the group Is a quaint
and picturesque bonnet made Of black
horsehair braid. Narrow black velvet
ribbon and clusters Of garden roses
and forget-me-nots are used for the
trimming. You cannot imagine any
thing which completes the costume
more haraoniously, when 1t is one Of
those wide-skirted, colonial looking
affairs that are so prettily developed
In taffeta.
At the right is a pretty street turban
made of braid in satin straw, and hav-
ing soft silk crown. An embroidered
band about the coronet is bordered
with very narrow velvet ribbon and
short streamers fall from diminutive
fiat bow at the back. At the front
big silk pompon supports a long slen-
der feather which fronts the weather
with amazing audacity.
One of those models which is ex-
pected to do duty both for street and
other wear is shown at the center Of
the group. 1t Is made of crepe draped
over a light frame. The brim is clev-
erly managed SO that an outline OF
four points results. Midway between
these a little bouquet of roses and
small flowers Is set In 8 cluster of
leaves. This is one Of those rare hats
that are suited to older as well as
younger matrons,

horses for their agricultural and other
work. European Russia had, prior to
the war, about 100000 horses, This
country and Russia together have so
per cent of all the erses in the world.
A very large number of horses In
Russia will be destroyed in the war
and the remainder will, no doubt, be
needed by Russia for her own agri-
cultural and other work.
The demands on the United States,
which has one-fourth of the worlds
horses, will, therefore, be large and

CHAPTER x-Continued.

She had rather have died, nay, have
had Reuther die, than to find herself
forced to weigh and decide so mo-
mentous question.
For, however she might feel about
1t, not a single illusion remained as to
whose hand had made use of John
Scoville's stick to strike down Alger-
non Etheridge. How could she have
when she came to piece the whole
story together, and weigh the facts
she had accumulated against Oliver
with those which had proved so fatal
to her husband?
Deborah shuddered. Aye, the mys-
terry had cleared, but only to en-
shroud her spirits anew and make her
long with all her bursting heart and
shuddering soul that death had been
her portion before ever she had es-
sayed to lift the veil held down so
tightly by these two remorseful men.
But was her fault irremediable? :?
The only unanswerable connection be-
tween this old crime and Oliver lay in
the evidence she had herself collected
As she had every intention of sup
pressing this evidence, and IS she had
small dread of any one else digging
out the facts to which she only pos
sessed clue, might she not hope that
any suspicious raised by her inquiries
would fall like house of cards when
she withdrew her hand from the top
pling structure?
She would make her first effort and
see. Mr.. Black had heard her COM
plant; he should be the first to learn
that the encouragement she had re-
ceive was so small that she had de-
cided to accept her present good luck
without further query, and not bark
back to past which most people had
buried.
You began it, as women begin most
things, without thought and a due
weighing of consequences And now
you propose to drop it in the same
freakish manner. Isn't that it?'
Deborah Scoville lifted her eyes in
manifest distress and fixed them de-
precatingly upon her interrogation
Mr.. Black smiled. The woman de-
lighted him. The admiration which
he had hitherto felt for her person
and for the character which could so
develop through misery and reprsach
as to make her in twelve short years
the exponent Of all that was most at
traotive and bewitching in woman
seemed likely to extend to her mind,
Il am reconciled simply from neces-
sity," was her gentle response. Moth
ing is more precious to me than
Reuthers happiness. I should but en-
danger 1t further by raising false
hopes. That Is why have come to
cry halt"
Madam, commend your decision.
But why should you characterize
your hopes as false, just when there
seems to be some justification for
them?"
Her eyes widened, and she regarded
him with a stimulation of surprise.
which interested without imposing
upon him.
Il do not understand you" said she
Have you come upon some clue?
Have you heard something which
have not?"
Mr.. Black took two or three crushed
and folded papers from a drawer be-
side him and, holding them, none too
plainly in sight, remarked very quietly,
but with legal firmness:
DO not let us play about the bush
any longer. You have announced your
intention of making no further attempt

Calls For Men to Take Part in War Have Depleted Ranks of Workingmen to Such an Extent That La Dor Was Never in Greater Demand.
Greater Shortage of Work ingmen is Reported in Smaller Towns Than in the CitiesETab Shows Status of Toilers.

Berlin. Oct. 12.-The huge drains and losses of thirteen months of war st1ave had the paradoxica1 effect of placing the German workingman in a position of prosperity unexampled in his history, of raising his wages by and large to a point they never at tained before. and of almost. com pIetely solving his non-empIoyment problem.
 i The faster men at the front have fallen and holes in the ranks had to be filled. the better has become the situation of the men at home, the higher have mounted the savings banks deposits of the few doing the work of the former many.
 Each month has drawn from the ranks of nearly all trades men whose places have not been filled, yet, whose work has had to be done. The work has been done, in part by over time labor, in part by workers whose vaIue-and in consequence whose pay increased about in proportion to the withdrawals.
 Yet the very fact that the worker who has stayed at home is having an unprecedented hey-day has created a problem which his leaders, if not he, is studying and worrying over-the problem of what is to become of him and of low %i take care of him when the war over, when hundreds Of thousands of his fellows come stream ing back from the front, when the lucrative manufacture of war mate riaIs suddenly stops.
 E Some think the problem is to be solved by kindly employers who will imme ediately take back their former employees. even though business and trade do not at once resume their be- fore-the-war volume. Others, less optimistic, are far r-sightedIy negotiat- ing with the government already and are asking that no matter when hos tilities cease the hundreds of thou sands not regularly employed as so1- diers shall be kept on the rolls for eight or twelve weeks till economic matters adjust themselves and the men can get back to work
 The organized trades are pf1ing up small fortunes in their treasuries against the time when they shall have to begin paying out the non-employ- dwind1ed to the vanishing point. And the government is practically pledged to supply hundreds of millions of marks. if necessary, toward this same end.
 The labor situation in Berlin today is more than fair measure by which to guage the situation throughout the empire. More than ever since the be- ginning of the war there has been an influx of workers from the country, attracted by the high wages prevail : ing, especially in those trades cater ing to army needs.
 The country has always had a smaller percentage of men unfit for

 The trade of saddle making is one Of the distinct army industries'' as the figures covering it show Not withstanding that 1856 men have joined the colors, there now are em- p1oyeda in Berlin about 1,5O0 more men than in peace tine-recrutts from other trades who have been quick to take advantage of good working conditions and higher wages.
 The tapestry workers represent one branch of men who have deserted their old trade to go into a 'twar in dustry''r and the textile workers an other. A business depression in the former trade, and a government re- striction in the production of the lat ter,, have driven hundreds of men who are handy with a needle into more re1nunerative occupations.

Among the foregoing figures, those covering the book binders. the print CTS helpers, the wood workers. the saddle makers, the tapestry workers and the textile workers are especially significant and Illustrative of present conditions.
 The total of the boo41binders now employed and those already drawn into service, SPA, falls far below that of last year, s,o85, for the rea7 son that it is one of the few trades in which wages have risen but little. Not only have many been called into service, but many others have vo1un- tarfly left it for more lucrative tarmy industries"
