yard, and allowing 81 for three-quar-
tiers of yard of satin, 81 for the
silk and metal thread with which the
embroidering is done, and 81 for sew
ing silk, lining, hooks and eyes, and
general fittings. Net is the lining usu.
ally selected for dress of this type,
because it gives the support necessary
and yet avoids any suggestion Of stiff
ness, which feature is definitely OPP
posed to the seasons preferred styles,
even the tight little basque bodices
frequently seen having an invariable
softening touch.
Sleeves Of the dress illustrated are
Of georgette, matching the drapery
while the dainty chemisette vest is of
sheer white organdie. This touch of
white against the neck is uniformly
becoming. AS will be noted, the gown
is cut on very simple lines. The bod
ice is barely waist length in the back,
the short-waist effect accumulated by
the pointed girdle. The simulated
front girdle is in one with the front
sections of the bodice, and is finished
with a touch of silver-thread en-
broidery and an appliqued block Of
the navy satin.
The fancy for metal embroideries
came into being more than year
ago, and it has strengthened as the
months have passed. The decoration
is now a favorite one on many Of the
high-grade tailored suits of silk.
Costumers account for the fancy for
embroideries as trimmings by the fact
that the war has discouraged the de-
velopment of novelty fabrics and
trimmings, so that to Offset the condi-
ton and do away with the possibility
of a dearth Of decoration hand en-
broidery was given place at the
head of the procession.
If woman is handy with her
needle the fancy for hand-embroid-
cred frocks need not appall her, but
if she must depend upon someone else
to apply the stitches she must ex-
pect to pay well for them. Manufac-
turers say that because Of the demand
for hand embroidery as trimming
ready-to-wear garments have gone up
in price, as this class of work must
necessarily be slow and skilled needle.
women command high wages.
Hand embroidery and fabric com
binations play very important part
in making this seasons costume a
smart one.

fare effect with fiat front and back

FIRST ATTENTION TO CHICKS
Keep Them Quiet and Warm Until
Thirty-Six Hours OId-Then Give
Sand and Water.

Many young chicks are breaking
their way into the world and will need
our attention If they are to grow and
bring profit. Do not be in hurry
to feed them, but keep them quiet and
warm until thirty-six to forty-eight
hours old Then give some fine sand
or grit, and water.
After this, feed some hard-boiled
eggs, dry bread or cracker crumbs, oat-
meal or prepared chick food. Feed a
little at a time, and often until a
month old, when four times a day will
be sufficient. After three months,
feed three times a day until grown.
Finely ground feed should be given
until they are about a month old,
when gradual change can be made
to fine cracked grains, which may be
fed until they are about two months
of age. Then another gradual change
can be made to cracked corn and
whole small grains.

|iany Uses for the Empty Hands,
May Be Found If Women VIII
Look for Them.

What shall a woman do with her
use for a muff? Shall she carry a
handbag or shall she run the risk of
feeling awkward and nervous through
not knowing just what to do with
them? Many women who are not ordi-
narily affected by trifles are some
times irritated by this little problem.
One young woman solves it by be-
coming a student. She is seen for the
first few weeks Of mild weather carry
ing book, magazine or newspaper,
which is not heavy, but finds use for
the empty hands. At first a book is
used. Then she changes to a lighter
book, then to a magazine, and lastly to
the newspaper. In the meantime she
in the hand, and not slipped over the
arm, as is generally done by those
who have carried a muff.
Another woman carries a bag con-
tanning embroidery, while third is
never seen without an embroidery bag
or basket. These articles are not
heavy, nor cumbersome, but are useful
for the purpose to which they are put.
1t is always at this time that women
feel shabby, even though they may
have on practically new clothes, and
all long for the seasons change of
dress. The bright new bags, or books,
serve to modify this dissatisfaction,
and women who carry such things go

sew it in place. Then sew a flounce
Of flannel of sufficient length to reach
to the bottom of the tumbler, and bind
the flannel at the lowest edge with
narrow ribbon.
The edge Of the lid is finished off
with silk cord, and in the center
three little loops of satin ribbon are
sewed on, which form a kind Of handle
by which the "cozy" can be lifted up
when occasion requires.
In the sick room a little article of
this kind will be found very useful, as
it forms capital cover for a glass,
whether it contains warm or cold
liquid.

GOOD FIRST FEED FOR CHICK
Rolled Oats Are Very Nutritious and
ReIished by Young Fowls Just
Out of She'll.

A good first feed for little chickens
is to throw limited amount of rolled
oats on the floor, only the amount that
the chicks will clean up in about one
hour Rolled oats are very nutritious
and relished by the chicks and are ex-
cellent as first feed. However, their
continued use is not advisable. Hard
boiled eggs, ground in q food chopper
and mixed with dry bread crumbs
may also be successfully used as a
first feed.

Battle Cry of Peace Coming to

"The Battle Cry of Peace" a
thrilling film production showing
what might happen to the United
States if a foreign foe landed on
her shores and urging prepared
ness against such a contingency,
viii be shown at the Orpheum
Theatre April II and 10.
The idea that power spells
peace" was driven home with a
will. Peace-at-any-price advo-
Gates are ridiculed and the fall
lacy of their position shown up.
The first part of the film is with
out doubt one of the most dra-
matte productions ever given in
this city. 1t shows the destruc-
ton of New York City by a
hostile fleet whose Is inch guns
topple building after building
without being in range of the
United States shore batteries.
Thousands of persons are pic
tured running madly about as
the bombardment continues both
from the sea and air.
A portion of the United States
fleet, much smaller than the in
vaders is seen in combat off the
coast. One of the finest pic
lures shown is the sinking Of
two battleships, which have been
driven in close to shore by the
foreign fleet. Then comes the
landing of the trops of Emanon
(no name, BACKWARD, and what
they do to the inhabitants. Men
are torn from their homes and
shot by a machine in front of a
wall a short distance away. They
are shown attacking women and
girls, choking them when they
resist.
The personal story of a veal
thy New Workers. family is de-
picted in the photo play. The
wealthy New Yorker does not
believe in preparedness. In the
bombardment which follows he
sees his wife and daughters torn
from him by the invaders, and
he and his prospective s~on-in-law
are later lined up and shot.
After being taken outside New
York city by one of the invading
officers the New Workers wife
becoming crazed, kills her two
daughters with a revolver, while
her captor and other soldiers are
filling up on liquor in an adjoin-
ing room. The death of the
prospective son-in-law's mother
and sister, as their house is re-
duced by shell fire, is also dis
played. Those who have the
principal roles in the photo play
are Charles Richman, L. R. Lyt-
ton, James Morrison, Mary
