THE FRENCH CABINET CHANGE

Another resignation has taken place
in the French cabinet, and again the
cause for it is laid to illness. No
member Of the cabinet in any of the
belligerent countries is having a pic
mic and it is not surprising that there
are occasional instances where health
suffers as the result and it becomes
necessary to yield to it, yet at the
same time it is a handy excuse which
covers Up the real situation and holds
the cabinet together. And this ap-
pears to be the circumstances under
which Gagieni, the French minister
of war, has left that office after five
months work.
GaI1ieni is a strong man in military
affairs and his influence has been felt
during the time he has been war min
lister. He used a strong hand in
knocking out the grip which politics
had obtained in that office, yet there
was aroused by his methods an OPP
position which it was impossible to
overcome He issued many rigid and
radical orders, the most of which
were undoubtedly needed to cope with
the situation and permit France to
get the full Senof1t from its army. but

SCARF FOR COMFORT.

The comfort scarf is a knitted wor-
sted affair eighteen inches wide and
little over a yard long. The ends
are knitted into a six inch wristband,
through which the hands are slipped,
and two satin ribbon ties are fastened
at each side Of the neck to keep the
scarf in place. The scarf is ever so
much better than capes and shawls,
which are always slipping off or get
ting in the way when one is busy NOV

THE GUEST ROOM.

There is real pleasure in making
the guestroom as charming and as
homelike as possible. \ writing table
prettily arranged with inkstand, blot
ting book and note paper is a great
addition to the spare room and one
that should always be managed if pos
sible. 1t is rather the fashion now for
hOstesses to provide many little extra
comforts for their guests. When the
water is hard some sweet scented

washstand, and occasionally a bottle

MARA5oU TRIMMING.

bodice being of pale brown silk net
over cream colored chiffon. a shir-
red lace hat is banded with marabou
above the dropping wired bTim, while
a parasol of brown and gold brocaded
silk has also an edge of marabou.

NEEDLEWoRK NOTES.

When doing plain sewing try using
the little wire paper clips which bust
ness men use for holding papers to-
Eether. Instead of much basting,
place some of these little fasteners on
the seams to hold them until stitched
on the machine. Some women use
needle-point steel pins instead Of bast-
ing threads for holding the seams and
hens of garments. In this case be
sure to place the heads of the pins
toward you when sewing. In this way
you can easily Pull the pins out of the
goods as you sew.

AUTOMOBILES BLousEs.

A new buttOnless blouse will meet
the need of the woman who is always
in a hurry. 1t is of soft white satin
yelled with white chiffon, and the
front crosses in surplice fashion from
right to left. \ collar of the white
satin rises high at the back, turns
over and then extends downward the
entire length of the surpliced front.
A snap button holds the loose fronts
at the bust line and another fastens
the waistband. This dainty blouse has
long sleeves, and they bell little over
the hand.
