Essay on Calf Bindings or
Signs of Spring

In the bewildering upward
climb of fashion, skirt bottoms
still outdistance shoetops by sew
eral inches of stocking. But van
ished are the ankles we used to
see in the good old days OF
pumps; strange and holder things
have acquired a place in the sun.
Equally heightened are the col
ors of the stockings. Instead OF
the conventional black, which is
now considered too conventional,
there is every shade from chaste
white to the loudest hue and cry.
Beverage tints, especially, are in
vogu e-chocolate, cafe-au-lait,
lemonade, orange phosphate, clar-
ct punch. One even sees fat girls
whose tight boottops overflow
with champagne. But the most
popular tint of all is flesh color ;
for that obviates the necessity of
darning.
Although this stocking tapes
try which separates the boots
from the skirt is only a mere go
between, it is by no means con-
tent to bloom unnoticed. 1t ar
rests the eye with dazzling de-
signs, erotic embroidery and
pulsing plaids. To enhance the
scenic effect, it may even have a
pantalette skydrop.
What rare profusion of flow
ers is here offered to the view!-
silken feur-de-lis, spangled 70,
settle clusters, luxuriant shin
vines, hardy drop-stitch runners
Veritable garden hose! Nothing
so brings home to one the fact
that it will soon be spring as
these limbs in blossom. tx

Chamblee stabbed Rich ard Elliott at Brighton on July f. 1914. Solicitor Ben G. Perry, assisted by At torney George Ross of the firm of Good wyn and Ross represented the state.

 About 5:30 o'clock this morning the residence occupied by J. D. Morrow, 1920 Eighth avenue, was damaged by fire as the result of defective flue. When dis covered the roof was on fire and the alarm was immediately turned in. With in very short time after reaching the scene the local firemen had the blaze completely under control and was extin- guished, the damage amounting to about s75. The house was owned by H. w. Sweet.
 The residence of J. M Chesser, 200 Fourteenth street, was entered by thieves last night and a cameo lavalier, a cameo stick pin, severa! other pieces of jewelry as well as clothing were stolen. The robbery was reported to police headquarters and detectives are at work on the case.

 Within the past few days move ment in favor of the Taylor's Ferry route for a highway to the Warrior river has developed in Bessemer. owing to the statement made public that the E. l. DuPont De Nemours company has under contemplation the erection of a nitrate plant at Lock IT on the War rior. For sometime it has been known that the DuPont company was secur- ing options on lands in the neighbor- hood of the lock and that engineers were at work for the corporation. If
 the company should begin work at this point it is contended that the Taylor's s Ferry road would be the nearest way
 to the Birmingham district, the road
 | branching east of the river, bringing | the lock almost as near Bessemer as
 Taylor's Ferry and it is argued that 1 the board of revenue should decide on
 the lower route for the best interest of
 all concerned. The citizens of Besse-
 mer will endeavor to have the board
 of revenue select the Taylor's Ferry route.

ENGLAND NOT NOW IN POSITION r OR. FLOATING NEW LOAN Sea Battle and Kitchener's Death Have Very De-
 pressing Influence FINANCIAL PLAN OF CIVIL WAR ADOPTED Money Borrowed in Such Way That It Can Be Refunded at Low
 Rate When War
 Closes
By HOLLAND

New York, June 9.-(Special.) 1.-The na- val battle off the coast of Denmark, whatever may have been the real balance between the opposing fleets so far as the results are concerned, and the destruc- ton of cruiser, with the tragic climax of the career of Lord Kitchener are likely considerably to postpone certain new financing which the British govern ment has had in mind. The time is now regarded as not propitous for un- dertakings of that kind. At least this Is the view of some of the leaders in international financing in the financial district.
 This morning one of the masters of international financing whose associa- tions with the leading financial inter- ests of Germany have been very close for 25 years, said that there was a cu- rious similarity between the financing adopted by our own government at the time of the civil war and the present day financing adopted both by Great Britain and by Germany.
 Great Britain, in the opinion of this financier and of others, is attempting so to finance her needs as to make it pos sible for her at the close of the war, and especially in the event of victory, to refund all the obligations the empire has issued since the war began at a low rate of interest Her statesmen have knowledge of the financing that was done by the Secretary of the Treasury in Lincolns administration, Salmon F. Chase.
 The government issued bonds from time to time, but each successive issue
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-06-10

bore a lower rate of interest than any that preceded it. The purpose was ulti- mately to refund the government bonds as soon as convenient after the govern ments option respecting time became available. This was exactly what was done with those of the bonds which were not paid. England is now financing her war needs through the issue of short time notes called treasury bills These are sold over the counter Many hun dred millions have already been issued, and if the war be continued another year hundreds of millions more must be js- sued. It will also be necessary in any event to secure the money with which to pay off earlier issues as soon as the time limit expires.
 England was contempla ting an issue at the present time of many millions of these treasury bills, but the depression occasioned by the two great events upon the sea will undoubtedly cause the Eng fish government to postpone this issue.
 GERMANY'S NAVY
 On the other hand, Germany has adopted a plan which in general features resem- bles the one which was put into opera tion by Secretary Chase at the time of the civil war. Germany is issuing cur rency exactly as Secretary Chase issued legal tender notes and treasury notes, and toward the close of Linco'ns first administration the national banks issued their notes.
 Evidently it is the German purpose so to maintain these notes as to cause them to be redeemable at par after the war is ended. The managers of the Deutsche bank, in a report for the year 1915 frankly state that in spite of the sound condition of the credit system and in spite of the gold cover for German bank notes having remained normal (about s per cenD, nevertheless the German cur rency is unable to maintain itself on the gold point because Germany is cut off from the rest of the world The possi- biity of keeping currency at gold parity through the export of merchandise or securities is barred. In civil war days the United States was not able to keep it's legal tenders at parity with gold, nevertheless the paper currency circu- lated freely. and John Sherman once said that notwithstanding it's early deprecia- tion in comparison with gold, the issuing of the greenback was the turning point of the war.

EejnS naturally suspicious after long term of residence in New York, and thinking it barely possible that MT. Por- ter had thus been returning a past fa- vor. l said to the young man:
 MT. Porter was not indebted to you for past favors of any kind was he?''
 T should say not was his reply, the shoe was on the other foot-it was l who was already indebted to him. I owed him a bill for clothes, and he never even mentioned it.' And the young man s face showed me that MT Porter had won something more than that bill could pos sibly amount to.
 four average Gothamite would have sized up his acquaintance had he beer ir MT. Porters place, and the seeder he looked, the harder would he have rubbed it in'' on him about the bill. The treat ment was so different that it made ar indelible impression upon the young fel- low, and it did more-it awakened that in him which is going to make him a suc- cess here one of these days. And just the knowledge of the fact that he gave the young man his start, will be suf- ficient to make MT. Porter satisfied and glad he offered his assistance, instead of presenting his bill. Yes, sir, H. J Porter has the right idea.
 These Manhattan men are puzzline sometimes.
