AN UNUSUAL NEW
BLOUSE

Here is pictured blouse which
contrives to be unusual merely by
means of its odd construction. Its
designer has taken his cue from those
who have made coats this season so
successfully by departing from all
precedent in cutting them. In this
blouse Of lace, with raised flowers in
velvet, the sleeves and back are in
one piece. 1t is lined with white chif-
ton, and draped. collared, and cuffed
with black satin.
Very much the same effect would
result If the blouse we're cut with a
regulation raglan sleeve. and the
model suggests the effectiveness of
printed chiffons made up in this way
The deep cuffs and drapery Of satin
will prove useful in harmonizing the
blouse with a particular skirt, or they
may be of black, whatever the colors
In the chiffon.
The blouse as pictured is worn with
a skirt OF black taffeta. It is one of
many in which two materials are COM
bined to make an overblcuse to be

Washington. British estimates of
the European wars toll of merchant
ships, giving in figures by the Depart
ment of Commerce, put the number at
736 with tonnage OF more than two
million. Allied vessels lost number
6S8 and neutral 1913.
The estimates, made by British ad-
miral, give British losses as 40 ships;
French, So; Russian, 35: Italian, 81;
Belgian, 10, and Japanese 8. This does
not include the loss of 237 trawlers by
the British, seven by the French and
two by the Belgians.
Norway, with 81 vessels destroyed,
leads the neutral nations in losses.
Sweden, with 40, is second, and Den
mark, with 80. third. Holland has lost
"a and the United States z.
British losses amount to four per
cent. of the total number in service
and six per cent. of the tonnage.
French losses are four per cent. in
number and seven per cent. in tom
mage. Despite these losses, it is de-
clared, the aggregate of ships owned
by the Allies is being steadily in
creased through building.

blouse when the fabrics are transpar-
ent, A combination of plain crepe
georgette and plaid taffeta, or one OF
satin and crepe, is more to be desired
than a blouse of one material. since
combinations of two or more fabrics
are characteristic of the present sea

A pretty import was made with a
yoke having round neck of taffeta
This yoke was trimmed into points
over the sleeves, and in the middle of
the front and back, midway between
the points in the front, it was extend
ed into two tabs. The remainder of the
blouse was of georgette crepe laid in
fine tucks where it was set onto the
yoke. The tabs of taffeta were slipped
through slashes cut in the crepe just
over the bust. Their ends were point
ed and finished with embroidery.
Very deep cuffs of taffeta finished
the sleeves. A narrow gaIIoon out
lined the round neck and the flarfng
cuffs. A collar, high at the back, and
cuffs of organdie completed this ex-

 Gold miners are afraid that the present high prices will not be paid for tungsten when peace reigns again in Europe. do not know what the output for the Territory was during the last season. but I think 1t was sufficient to prove that the ore is there in paying Quanti. ties"
