COATS FOR THE
 EARLY SEASON.

A light coat for the demi-season is a necessity and 1t must be of a char acter to suit almost any occasion Whenever chill in the air demands 1t, morning, afternoon or evening, it is to grace it's wearer by it's conservative but undeniably good style It Is ono of the difficult things that designers face each spring, and they wrestle with it's problems with varying suc- cess. The spring coat depends upon its style to make 1t a ready seller or a failure, in the eyes of the manufac- turer. It must be in line with the mode as to shape, quiet as to color, and an advantage to the figure of the wearer. Hence there are many models
 An elegant demi-season coat of gab- ardine shown in the picture Is lined with striped taffeta. It is banded with silk in self color, about the bottom and at the cuffs. The small turnover col lar is of velvet.
 The body of the coat is semifitting with belt across the back. It's skirt at the sides and below the belt at the back hangs in godets. There is less fullness in 1t at the front and from the shoulders to a point several inches

Nenti!ate the Bedroom,

If beds received more attention there would be less of that tired feeling" in the morning. The bed ought to be the most hygienc piece of furniture in the house. It should be we'll aired and never dressed i'm mediately after the occupant leaves 1t. And when it is being aired the windows should be wide open.
 Regardless of the condition of your couch, however, if you sleep in a stutfy room you are bound to pay the penalty. When you open the win dows wide and sleep in a hygienic and properly equipped bed you can depend upon nature to do her part in assisting you to recuperate and gain strength. The time to begin prepara- tion for good nights rest is when you leave your bed in the morning.

FL PasO NAMED IN 1898
Border City Was So Called ty Juan de onate, an Explorer of the
 Early Days.

As you near Fl Paso you catch glimpse. at Ysieta, of the venerable church, now hopelessly restored that was built away back in le'- aiteI the Pueblo uprising Does this sound like a remote date in American his- tory? One is constantly surprised down here by the antiquity Of the set dement's. Ernest PeiXotto writes in Scribner's.A
 Fl Paso is certainly no exception 10 the rule, for it was given it's name n 1898 by Juan de Onate one Of the earliest explorers of New Mexico. who. having forded the Rio Grande at this point, called it Fl Paso del Norte-the Pass to the North. Fifty years later the old church and mission al Juarez were built But from that time until the Mexican war period the site ol Fl Paso itself remained a ranch belong ing to the Ponce de Leon family. Aft CT the American occupation it became terminal point on the old Overland trail from St Louis to San Francisco. and the rumbling stage coaches brought life and glitter to the saloons and gambling joints of the Calle Fl Paso.
 The last half century has again vast ly changed all this, and the border town has been completely submerged in the steady march of modern i'm provement.
 Pioneer plaza remains the center of the city's activities. to be sure. but upon it, instead of humble adobe homes and tawdry shops, front two great ho- tels, several large department stores which display the very latest fashions and the largest all concrete building in the world"

Woman's Love.

It takes a hundred men to make an encampment, but it takes only the in fiuence of one woman to make a home. I not only admire woman as the most beautiful object ever ere ated, but I reverence her as the re- deemed glory of humanity, the sane tuary of all virtues, the pledge of all perfect qualities of heart and head. It is because women are so much bet ter than men that their faults are considered greater. The one thing in this world that is considered constant, the only peak that rises above the clouds, the window in which the light burns forever, the one star Chat dark ness cannot quench, is wOman's love. It rises to the greatest height, it sinks to the lowest depth, it forgives the most cruel injustice. A womans love is the perfume of the heart This is the real love that subducs the earth, the love that has wrought miracles of art, that gives us music all the way from cradle song to the grand sym phony that bears the soul away on wings of fire. A love that Is greater than fire, sweeter than life and stronger than death.-Robert G. h. gersoll.

IN LEES TRAINING SCHOOL
Preparation for War and Peace As suredIy Part of the Preparation
 for lndustriaIism.

It has long been evident, though the fact has not yet made it's due inn pression, that industrialism is the mod ern training school for war or peace, It is there that men are actually think ing of one another in terms of war or peace. It is there that they learn to organize for or against one another. The lockout and the strike are dis tinctly warlike measures. Arbitration is term of war, the most advanced term looking toward peace, but still presupposing state of warfare Co operation, in some one of it's manifold forms, is the only distinctive term of peace. It is such, not simply because it implies sympathetic action, but be- cause it educates all concerned in those sobrieties on which democracy must at last rest" As we recall how many persons are in the training school of industrialism, how early they enter it and how long they remain in it, and how various and how influen- tial are the experiences through which they pass, we can see how far back the peace movement must reach in it's educative work. What can we hope to accomplish in the training of our diplomats for carrying out the policy of universal peace, if we cannot train our captains of industry, in the ranks both of capital and of labor, to think and to act in the terms of peace?- William J. Tucker, in the Atlantic.

below the waist line it hangs straight. Like so many of the new coats it be- trays ingenious cutting. There is a pointed yoke at the back that suggests little cape. The upper part of the body terminates in long point at each side in the front But these de. tails in shaping are inconspicuous. Ex- cept for a few buttons and the silk banding the coat Is untrimmed. The model Is in very dark blue.
 Besides these trim semifitting mod els there are others with fuller lines and cut somewhat longer. One of the handsomest models made of covert and other cloths Is cut to hang straight but very full. The waist line is de- fined by rows of shirrtng at each side and by a belt across the back and front It has deep cuffs and a wide collar that may be turned up about the neck.
 An extreme of the fiaring mode has attracted much attention. although 1t is made of dark blue gabardine. It has high cape collar and panels down the front of blue-and-white checked material It flares from the shoulders down, but a belt which emerges from slashes at each side of the front pre- tends to hold it's fullness somewhere near the waist of the wearer, at the front.

SPORTS CLOTHES
 FOR YOUNG WOMEN.

There are sports clothes for every body, but it is the young woman that may be as daring as she likes in se- lecting them Other people look well enough in them, when they are care fully selected. but she can carry off anything that happens to please her fancy. It Is already evident that sports coats and sports skirts please her so well that she is determined to enliven the streets with them. Here tofore she has relied upon fads of the hour, in the way of accessories. to add snap and individuality to her tailored suit Now she goes gayly about in coats and skirts that don't need anything additional in the way of snap.
 It is matter for thankfulness that the colors and color combinations in sports clothes are attractive White entrusted with bright green, light yellow, tan, brown and several pleas ing blue shades. white and black, and considerable rose color are predomi hating in the realm of sports clothes White and green. white and blue, with white and black, still divide honors in popularity.
 Two knitted sports coats of silk, with hats to match, are shown in the
The log cabin Democrat., 1916-04-24

picture. These are sweater coats with knitted sashes that tie at the front. Their hanging ends reach to the bottom of the coat At the left grass green is contrasted with white. The coat has a wide border of white and the hat has knitted sash laid in folds about it.
 A small checkerboard pattern in black and white may be found also in other color combinations. The hat is white, with checkerboard facing and band. The coat has a collar which may be turned up about the neck. Either of these coats look well with white skirts or with striped skirts in the same colors.
 One feature that belongs to the sports hat is destined to endear 1t to its wearer. The flexible brim may be turned up or down wherever liked. And these hats are very comfortable, like sports shoes, wherein ease and style have come to amicable terms at last.

 For a week the kitchen range had been cold, likewise the water tank be- side 1t; and, there being no gas heater in the Woodside home, the grownups had contented themselves with cold baths and the children with such puri- fication as could be accomplished with occasional bedtime teakettles of hot water. q ought to have Marian start the fire," said the mistress, but it means bringing up coal from the eel lar, and I'm afraid to ask her." The hour of Mariars departure had arrived. She lazied through the break fast dishwashing, then disappeared up- stairs to pack. Mrs. Woodside went into the deserted kitchen and said. Nov I'll have a fire and boilerful of hot water at last She brought kindling and coal from the lower re- gions, she built the fire and stoked it for an hour, until the water tank gave out grateful heat. Then she went to look for Marian.
