It had been asked why Great Britain did not blockade neutral countries, but in his opinion that would not come well from "a country which went to war in defense of the rights of small nations. England had devised plans, which. without do- ing any violence to the rights of the smaller countries, had succeeded in the main aim of depriving Germany of all traffic in commodities.
 The problem before the foreign of flee. he said, was how to carry on the blockade effectively, and yet preserve the good will. and friendship of neutral nations, and concluded:

PROSPERITY
 RECORDS BROKEN

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-All previous prosperity records in the history of the United States Steel corporation were surpassed today when the di- rectors declared an extra dividend of 1A per cent on the common stock, together with the regular quarterly disbursement of l h per cent for the fourth quarter of 1916. and issued a statement of earnings for the same period exceeding by far all similar exhibits of past years, as well as more than fulfilling the most optimistic forecasts.
 The earnings for the quarter. amounting to $105. S5S,547. brought the years total earnings to $333 .0S6, whicl; more than doubled those of 1Ha7 which showing earnings of $780, 964.614. stood as the record year until the close of 1916
 The total earnings for the quarter covered in todaN's statement com pare with the total of sS5,S17.607 for the third quarter of 1916. sum which then constituted a record.
 The total 1916 earnings compare with $140,250,066 in 1915.
 With today's extra disbursement, the total dividends on the common shares for 1916 amount to SA per cent. The extra common disburse- ment calls for an outlay of $S,S95,2S4. This makes the total dividend dis bursement for the fourth quarter. in cluding the regular Ii per cent com mon dividend and the usual 1% per cent on the preferred stock, amount to s21. .533. .996.

 PREMATURE PEACE

 LONDON, Jan. 30.-Speaking at Nottingham today in connection with the war loan campaign, Lord Robert Cecil minister of blockade, said he hated war as his father (the Marquis of Salisbury did but it was because he hated war that he was supremely anxious there should be no premature peace. Peace. he said, must be based fundamentally on the establishment in Europe of boundaries and divisions resting on the principle of nationality, or with the consent of the governed.
 Great Britain, continued Lord Robert Cecil, did not desire to crush Germany, but to show and inspire Germany with the real ideals of nationhood. It was the business of the allies first to carry the war to a successful issue, and he believed that victory could be won in no way but on the field
 It IS sometimes said that we might beat Germany by blockade" he said. T do not think we should be right in trusting to a blockade alone At the same time I say boldly that much has been done by the blockade We believe we have absolutely destroyed overseas exports of the enemy in addition to largely diminishing Germany's trade with neighboring neutrals
 For many weeks past the evidence has all flowed in that direction We have heard from many sources of food riots in the enemy countries. of crowds of people waiting outside the shops to obtain food It seems established be- iyond all question that the enemy has little wool and less cotton. and is mak- ing clothes and boots of paper.

Straight Coatee
Will Be Popular

Paris.--One of the most popular
novelties Of the autumn season is the
short straight coatee which is cut In
sack form. This smart and eminently
useful garment promises to be univer-
sally popular all through the winter.
1t is comfortable, practical and be-
coming, and then 1t is exceedingly
economical, for 1t enables half-worn
fur coats to be altered, cut up and
brought thoroughly into the front line
of fashion. All the Paris dressmakers
and tailors Of the first order are show
ing these short coatees in their ad-
vance winter styles and the buyers are
very much pleased with them.
The model of this order which
have sketched this week was created
by Redfern and 1t Is an excellent ex-
ample Of the fashions Of tomorrow.
Very simple In outline, but SO smart
and attractive.
The material used for the original
model was bllliard-green faced cloth
and the coatee was bordered with mus
quash. You will notice that the band

1t Is not laid on the cloth In the old
style. 1t Is rolled back and invisibly
caught down here to hold it In place.
This Is a favorite method with our
best tallors. They apply 1t to fur
bands of all kinds and Of course to
turn-back cuffs. The coatee is finished
Off with large hood collar, which is

This color Is so vivid that 1t needs

green shown In the best houses, almost
as many greens as blues, and this is
serious saying. MS every conceivable

fetas which showed CLEANS of gray,

GRIT WILL AID INDIGESTION
Material for Grinding Purposes Alone
Constitutes Small Part of Hens
Natural Foraelng.

Fowls on range are constantly pick
ing up bits Of different materials which
are often classified broadly as grit. Yet
we must remember that true grit (for
grinding purposes alone) is absolutely
indigestible, and therefore constitutes
Il small part of the hens natural for
aging. What she picks up is more
likely in the nature of ash or carbon or
lime or charcoal.
In cases of indigestion caused by
pasty mashes Jumping in the crop, grit
helps greatly. Where much soft, slop-
py food is fed to fowls, they will some
times consume grit rayenously because
1t helps to prevent the food from pass
ing through the system too rapidly.
The extreme necessity for grit In such
cases would be somewhat relieved
however, by feeding more bulky food

real monks cloth is heavy material
suitable only for cold weather. Fine
blue serge still holds a leading place
