doubtless make the most gloomy of dc
auctions from the report that tie
Hagenbeck brothers have been given
the contract for feeding the English
prisoners in Germany, since they will
be sure to recall, in this connection,
an announcement several weeks ago
that, in orde rto save the expense Of
feeding them all the animals in the
Hamburg zoo had been sentenced to
death. What more natural than the
theory that, with customary Teutonic
thrift. raised by the necessities Of
war to the ninth power, the famous
animal men are now stewing snakes
and seals for soldiers? Nobody ia
miliar with economy and efficiency as
developed and perfected by the Kul-
turbund could for moment suppose
that the menagerie will be wasted,

Don't wear more than one ring on

Don't choose a conspicuous style or
color for frock that must do long
service An equally smart dark color
will look fur better.
Don't wear white topped boots If
rour ankles arc large. Nt
Don't imagine that seventeen shades
Of brown, tan. putty and sand can be
safely worn at the same time. They
clash almost as badly us so many DIFF.
ferent shades of various colols.
Don't forget that even in this day OF
