DIRECTING the Battle.

Great soldiers are often represented
rs enjoying the tumult of war; as a
matter of fact, they are usually lovers
of peace, and their immense RESPONSE
bility calms them in the most exciting
moments. The man who directs a
great battle under modern conditions
rarely wears a glittering uniform. He
is often miles away from the front,
seated sometimes at a pine table set
in the open, covered with telephones
and telegraph instruments. with a
group of aides about him whose work
no longer is to gallop, with glittering
orders on their breasts, over bullet
swept fields, but to receive and trans
NIT messages.
On the table before him is chart
on which the position of every divi-
sion is marked; and as the divisions
change positions these changes are
recorded SO that the eye of the COM
mander in chief sees before him in
miniature the movements Of all the
troops engaged at n distance. He is
surrounded by quietness and his mood
is one of intense concentration.

life since early childhood had not been
a disagreeable one. Mrs. Barton was
vain, trilling and complaining at times.
but she was not unkind outright to
Ellice. Her charge did most of the
housework and was Il busy bust!ing
little creature.
There's only two of us, though"
Ellice would say brightly, "and Aunty
Is not untidy, so there is not such II
great heap to do, except on cleaning
day"
1t had been n year back when Roland
gay, Needless young fellow, the son
of rich father living in the next vii
lage. He had all but made serious
love To Ellice, when all her dreams
were shattered. He did not call upon
her for a week, and when Ellice began
to inquire around, her discoveries re-
suited in sorrow and tears many sleep
less nights thereafter.
What she CLEANED from her inquiries
was that Roland Dexter "had got into
appeared from the safe in his fathers
office and he was suspected. Mr.. Dex-
ter was stern, determined man and
had driven this "black sheep of the
family" into exile. Rumor had ii that
Roland was banished to some remote
Western ranch. There was a hint of
his arrest being threatened had he re-
mained in town. Guilty or innocent.
however, Roland Dexter had faded out
of Ellce's life. He had not written
her line since his abrupt disappear
ance.
Lacey Dclavan was somewhat of a
chum of Roland. but when Ellice asked
him for details of the cause of Ro-
lands departure Delavan simply
shrugged his shoulders, declared he
knew only that it was "some Jail of
fense" and Elllce almost hated him
for the cold-blooded sneer. Since then
Delavan had worked himself into the
good graces of Mrs. Barton and called
regularly upon Elllce once week,
despite the cold and distant way In
which Ellice received his unwelcome
attentions.
She was all on fire with indignation
and resentment one especial evening
when he called. for there had appeared
In the weekly paper one OF those broad
hints at "a local engagement between
two OF the bright stars in our social
armament" The initials palpably in
dicated Elllce and Delavan. Ellics
fairly cried over it. When Delavar

One might as we'll try To count the
stars as TO tell of the innumerable
styles in bags that have come to the
front in fashions parade. They are
here In anticipation Of the holidays,
and promise to entice more money out
Of shoppers than any other one article
in whole galaxy of luxurious things.
They are expensive luXurieS, but ev-
cry one comedies their right TO be.
Handsome beaded bags, In which the
background and decorations are en-
tirely of small beads, bring sometimes
n hundred dollars; and twenty dollars
is modest price for this particular
kind of bag. Others of velvet, en-
broldered with steel beads, range be-
tween five and twenty-five dollars,
with few that are less. There are bags
partly covered with bead patterns on
satin. and many showing combinations
of two fabrics, as velvet and brocade
or velvet and satin.
They are all made OF rich materials,
but IL is the tedious handwork involv-
ed mat brings the high price. The
practiced needleworker who can do
this for herself can save n surprising
ly large part of the cost of these sump-
tuous accessories.
In the picture a bag and hat TO
match and two separate bags are
shown. The hat has wide brim of
gold lace and n crown covered with n
piece OF Paisley. The brim edge Is
bound with seal. and single pea
cock feather poses the glorious color
ings of nature against n background
rich enough to correspond with IL. The
bag is of Paisley with tassel of fur
tied with a small bow of black satin
ribbon like that In the hangers.

Fashion has approved, year in and
year out, the one-piece frock for the
young girl, and this piece Of good judg-
ment is more than exOnerated. 1t has
resulted in cleverly designed dresses
that conceal the angles of the miss
who has arrived at the awkward age.
And now her elders are about to take
advantage of the gracefulness of the
One-plece frock, for the mode demands
this style for everybOdy-young or old
whose figure will allow it.
The dress for a miss Of twelve or
more years shown in the picture, Is Of
serge and might be made Of any other
cloth Of about the same weight and
texture. A dress of this kind is sup
ported by plain underbodlce of mus
lin or silk which. extends below the

shirred In two groups of shrrings. In
the shirrings needlework Is introduced
with colored silk thread, in contrast

Small buttons, covered with the ma
terial of the frock, define the shirrings.
Cloth-cOvered buttons, in larger size,
fasten the girdle, which is slashed In
to three tabs at the end. A button
hole is worked In each tab. The girdle
is wide and does not confine the dress
at the waistline, but breaks the length
Of the figure. 1t is a feature of many
one-piece frocks, where it's real use
appears to be to make place for silk
embroidery or bead work and to pro-
vide chic finish for the frock.

A fairly simple bag of black velvet

work pattern in small steel beads.
Small apples, made of satin, are sus-
pended at the bottom, set in a little
frill of velvet. They are calculated to
tempt the daughters Of Eve into ex-

sides. 1t closes with steel rings, and
