DECLARES THAT THE WAR
WILL CLOSE THIS YEAR

The London Times military CORE
spondent in France writes that opera
ton on the British front is optimistic
that the war will be brought to a'suc-
cessful close during 1916.
The feeling of optimism, he said, is
based on the following factors:
''The continuous growing of the
number of men and quantity Of NUM-
ton on the entente front; the extraor-
binary success of the Russian army;
arresting of the Austrian offensive i'll
the Trentino; the silencing of the Ger
man navy through the great sea battle
off Jutland; the exhaustion of the Ger
man as indicated by the call
for boys Of II years old, and the use
of prisoners in the German munition
factories"

in the July American Magazine, "for

1t will be from three to five inches
across the ball of the foot. Fashion
is a whimsical thing. and such shoe
when it becomes regular may be con-
sidered beautiful. ANY fashion in COS
