Washington, May 1.-Two weeks have
passed since the United States dis
patched to Germany its note demand
ing that an abandonment OF present
methods Of submarine warfare i'm,
mediately be declared and effected.
anG tonight the state department was
still without any definite information
indicating that the demands would be
complied with.
AS the days so by, and no reply
comes from Berlin. and Ambassador
Gerard sends no word regarding the
attitude of the German government.
an air of grave concern is beginning
to manifest itself in administration
circles.
Publicly, officials continue to pre-.
serve an air of optimism. Privately.
no attempt is made to conceal q con-
trary feeling, and this feeling is GER
tain to become more pronounced un.
less some definite news is forthcom.
ing over night.
1t is felt here that the very length
of time whic hhas been consumed by
the German government in preparing
reply in itself indicates that the
communication will not take the
shape of a simple response to the d.
rect and clear-cut issues raised in thu
American note. 1t is feared that tho
reply is likely to assume an an argu-
mentative character, which scarcely
can be regarded as meeting the. re.
quirements Of the United States.
Persons in close touch with affairs
at the German embassy. however. con-
time 10 express themselves as being
positive that Germany will make con-
cessions to the United States which
will prevent breaking off diplomatic
relations. 1t is reiterated that all
messages from the Berlin foreign Office
clearly indicate that Germany is most
anxious TO preserve friendly relations
with the United States.
Heretofore, Mr.. Gerard has kept

son fully advised, not only in regard
to official developments, but in regard
to the probabilities in advance Of gov.
ernmental and court gossip as we'll.

Berling, via London, May 2.-It has
been learned that DR.. Karl 'Helferich,
the imperial treasurer is at head

able to see the German troops at an
important point on the front.

and if he told me it wouldn't be a Sc
cret. Just as if I can't keep a secret
as well as he can! I think l ought to
know where Mr.. and Mrs. Quack have
gone if any one does. seeing that I was
the one who found Mr.. Quack. I'll get
even with Jerry Muskrat one OF these
days"
Are you sure that Jerry does know
HIMSELF" asked little Mrs. Peter. Per
haps he's just pretending so as to
tease you folks
II hadn't thought of that" exclaimed
Sammy. I'm going straight back there
and pretend l don't believe he knows
at all. If he really thinks I don't be.
lieve he knows perhaps he Will tell II
he really does know"
Off went Sammy as fast as his wings
could take him back to the Smiling
Pool. He was gone long time. When
at last he returned he was no wiser
than before. The worst of it was he
couldn't make up his mind whether
Jerry Muskrat did or did not know. Il
couldn't get thing out of him., de-
clared Sammy. IF he has got secret
he certainly knows how to keep it..
The next day when Peter visited the
Smiling Pool 1t was the same way
Jerry was good-natured. but he
wouldn't tell where Mr.. and Mrs. Quack
had gone. 1t was the same the
next day and the next. Finally Peter
made up his mind that Jerry didn't
know, and then he felt better. You
know there is nothing that so upsets
Peter Rabbit as the feeling that some
one knows something that he doesn't.

Any one the least worldly-wise would

EXPLAINS why men

Thousands of men are growing
bald every day and don't know the
reason why. Many of them never
} expect to save even what hair is left.
This is. indeed, a pity, says a hair
J specialist. who claims that badness
usually comes from carelessness. and
{ that any one who gives the hair
just little attention should always
J have an abundance of good. healthy

( The treatment is very simple: wash

sian Sage. a delightfully."- efficient
{ preparation that the best druggists
everywhere now recommend to stop
hair from falling. to remove dam
druff and to refresh and invigorate
the hair roots.

coveries, Partisan Sage has been

THE CHINESE INFLUENCE IN FASHIONS.
BY ANNE RITTENHoUsE.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
NEW YORK, April 24.-The woman
who owns a good looking Chinese wrap
should get it out to begin to use 1t for
the evening. For several years this
kind of covering has not been used and
has been looked upon with some dis
favor because cheap editions or the
original garments were TO be had for
si2 and more, and also because the
style of evening wraps changed. and
only here and there did one see an indi-
~siusIist attempting to use the man
DARN coat as it stood.
The other night at the play a smart
New York woman stood in the lobby
waiting for a motor. and her costume
was so indicative of the Chinese infiu-
ence that she made significant study
for a reporter of clothes.
To begin with, she looked like a
Chinese idol. with her waxen skin,
shining black hair, fiattened around
the brow and piled high on top; eyes
that slanted somewhat and were aid
ed by an artificial touch to the end or
the thin. black eyebrows. AS wrap
she wore a soft, satin garment with
the shoulder fronts and hem made up
of wide Chinese embroidery, which was
probably cut from mandarin coat. 1t
was quite sumptuouS and Monaghan.
In her hand. half opened, was a fan of
peacock feathers mounted on carved
ivory sticks.

Chinese Clothes Difficult.

The woman was a symbol of all the
new fashions. and ones only hope in
looking at her was that the large
broad shouIdered women. with typical
AngIo-Saxon faces. would eschew the
Chinese influence in dress. 1t is not
for their type. But we have such a
large variety of slender women with
dark eyes. black hair and colorless
faces that there is no reason why the
things we borrow from Picking should
not be used to advantage
The new top coats are cut with the
broad shoulders and square sleeves of
the mandarin coat. This has always
been considered a comfortable fash
ion for the space is wide enough to
keep from crushing the gown beneath.
1t is only in these coats that one sees
the Chinese silhouette; in gown the
Chinese influence is confined to color
and embroidery. In various ways Chi
nese ornament is used. especially IN the
broad, embroidered belt. the fanciful
buttons, the gayly colored tassels on
hats and the long peacock fans that
have come into place with all the other
fans that suddenly became the fashion.
One is tempted to write an entire
chapter on fans alone, for they have
taken on all the dignity and ceremony
of the Louis XIV days, but not the
shape. Their tidal wave Of popularity
is accredited. also, to the strength of
the Spanish movement in. dress, but
these large, waving, feather fans were
never used in Spain.
They come in every color and are
mounted on ornamental sticks, and
sometimes just three. feathers are con-

LOLLRMES N7O
FASHION
| LAND

When the days of spring houseclean-
ing arrive and fresh paint and dust
rags are the order of the day in all well
conducted homes, every wise housewife
seeks a frock that will appear neat and
attractive if friends drop in unexpect-
edly; a frock. moreover, that will wear
well, will launder frequently without
injury and will be comfortable. The
design here shown fills all these re-
quirements. 1t is loose without look
ing sloppy" and it has even fash
ionable touch in the fare of the skirt
although the flare is not wide enough
to be troublesome in housekeeping.
This frock is of a style, too. that is
sought by schoolgirls and busy women
for morning wear, because it can be
slipped on SO quickly and fastened
down the front. For school wear it
will be prettier If selected among house
silks and ginghams or art cottons and
linens. A dainty white collar and
Wristbands will add greatly to the gen
eral effect.
If the garment is to be worn solely
for housekeeping duties a stout ging-
ham or some equally durable cotton
fabric should be chosen. The charm of
the frock must lie in it's color scheme.
Pink. blue or Powered material. with
trimming or fiat folds, is always at

pretty and wear just as we'll as an ugly

most satisfactory, for it will not read
