omuse and delight a most exacting
audience. yet there were not more
than half dozen invited guests.
That Is the very secret OF the sue
Cess OF the organization. the member
ship will 90 to any amount OF trou-
Bic to perfect program for the en-
tertainment of themselves. The pro-
gram last night consisted OF various
numbers by the different sections of
the band and solos and duets, all of
which were heartily enjoyed.
At the conclusion of tho program
ard lemonade we're pass
ed ard all spent very pleasant
half hour eating and making mer-
ry. Talks were made by Lee p.
|Quaite, Grey Moore. Pat Sims and
Others about the management of the
band, conduct Of the members and q
campaign FOR new members, Colonel
|Quaite is prime favoTite at the
band hall and he was at his best
form for speech making last night
lie jollied the boys along for a time,
talked seriously with them about
their daily habits, counselled them
in matrimonial affairs until he won
the heart of each and every lad, ard
mo doubt there were many secret
resolves TO follow in the footsteps
of the jolly old bachelor who has
withstood the feminine attacks Of an
hundred or more leap years. The
colonel claimed 1t Is no fault of his
that he is not at the head Of a hap
by family and said it it was his joy
Ito possess eighteen chubby-faced
boys he would want every one of
them to become members of the
band.
Gray Moore and Pat Sims talked
about the methods of increasing the
membership of the band. Pat put
lit squarely up to the boys themselves
to do the work. He said new blood
was needed to spur the old members
on to greater effort and proposed to
launch a campaign for new members
that would disturb many household
until horns wero purchased and
members thereof allowed to join the
band.
1t was . jolly evening and one
long to be remembered by the entire
membership.

Federal Authorities Learn von Rintelen Behind

New York, Jan. 6.-Money furnish e,; by Capt. Franz von Renteler' mysterious friend of the kaiser, IS being used to finance new revolu- ton in Mexico, according to fnforn1a- tion that reached the federal authorl- ties today.
 The man back of the new revolt, ac- eording to advices eabled to this country by General Carranza, is General Aurelio B1anquet. who was minister Of war under victorfanc Huerta.
 Blanquet is proceeding. local Car. ranzistas believe, under the general plan of action mapped out by von Bentelsn and General Huerta in I,arcelona, Spain, and in New Yorx' Ee is largely flna1iced, toe, it is saiA by huge sums of money deposited IF banks along ths Mexican border, Tn Cuba, and elsewhere by von Rfntelen

We are getting used to the military influences at work on fashions. We have seen the hat modelled on Ger man military headdress and we have seen the Italian military hat. Braided suits galore have passed us. s Now comes the military influence in ribbons.
 Some Of the shops sell striped and plaid ribbons with the colors of the different regiments in the British army. There is the ribbon with the colors of the army medical corps, and the ribbon with the colors of the Scot tish fusileers and many, many other ribbons.
 These ribbons are in the width for hat bands and belts and can also be used for many other sorts of trim ming.

CURING THAT TIRED FEELING
When You Feel Worn Out Drep
 Everything and Re-Establish Ncrmai Rest.

Keeping up one's strength prevents the nerves from becoming panicky and encourages optimism to a surprising degree. It is true that luncheon consumes much valuable tiEo, and where this is not possible | cup of bouillon, hot milk, or chocolate will take the edge of the appetite. Some thing warm is much better than ices and sweet cakes if you would keep up your strength and subdue those uf- ruly nerves.
 Eat fruit every day. Canned fruits are good. Cooked fruits are often bet ter than dubious fresh fruits, but some fresh fruit is essential. Eat fresh, green vegetables whenever you can get them. Thoroughly wash all raw fruits. Eat some Of the vegetables of low food value, like carrots, parsnips, spinach, turnips, squash and cabbage, to prevent over.nourishment. Eat slowly and taste your food we'll. When you feel worn out drop every other consideration and try to re-es- tablish normal rest. Though the causes and needs of sleep are still somewhat of a mystery, we know that the activity of the brain cells is re- duced. They are occupied il, taking nourishment from the blood. Better results are had when the
 head rests low and the windows are
 wide open, giving plenty of oxygen
 to the lungs. This creates a new sup
 ply of energy for the waking and working hours.
