 ! Now. that everyone is practicing economy and prolonging the usefulness of garments by remodeling them, these fur-fabrics have proven themselves the hest of aids. They help to change the of made-over clothes so completely that there is no recognizing original suit or frock that is enriched by them-and their durability means q longtime lease on life for such gar ments.
 Entire coats of fur-fabrics are very warm and hardly suited to the milder climates of the South, but scarfs and muffs, or collars and cuffs on fashion able coatings worn with huff to match them, make an ideal coat for any lati- tude. In the North sweater worn under coat of this kind makes it as warm as a fur coat and the cloth coat trimmed with fur-fabric. At least the equal of an entire coat of the fabric, in elegance and in rich appearance.

CHRISTMAS COMES
 ON "MEATLESS DAY"

The serving of roast pig, baked hams, etc., on Christmas day this year will be "taboo," for this eventful day falls on the regular weekly "meatless day." and all conservative and patri- otic housewives will arrange for the elimination oi all meats on the festive board this year. Turkeys, chickens, ducks, geese, fish, squirrels and small game, however, can be served without violation of the rules of the food con servation commission, and it is not thought that the fact that Christmas comes on "meatless day" will make much difference in the excellence of the monday meal.

There is m ancient saying that "One should never speak of rope to man whose father was hanged" and there is a great deal implied in those few words. In effect, is meant that subjects of conversation should be carefully in- troduced where persons present are not known to certain extent; that is, that nothing untoward has happened, publicly, at least, that would make any unusual subject apply too openly to anyone especially.

There are 1000 women working un-

ment In the cigar and cigarette fac

and mercantile houses constantly are
being replaced by women, who receive

Actresses receive the highest wages
paid to women In Japan, but their
clothes are expensive, and so they are

mans their Uhlands, all distinctive.
Let us have our American Indian
cavalry.
There are 400 miles or southern

OHIO LOAFERS MUST WORK
Tramps, Panhandlers and Such Like
to Be Herded In Labor
Colonies.

Columbus, O.-The vagrant who
stops at the back door and asks for a
"handout" soon will be only memory
in Ohio. Tramps, 'panhandlers" and
other loafers are to be coralled, put in
labor colonies and made to become
self-supporting at least. The plan is
a war-efiiciency measure.
Details are being worked out by
Governor Cox and the Ohio branch of
the council Of national defense. The
camps will supplement lighthouses, the
latter not possessing sufficient facili-
ties to take care Of the "wont-works."
Police, marshals and sheriffs will be
hot on the trail of these parasites Of
society, who, on conviction, will be put
under guard and forced to labor for
the duration Of the war.

signaled the launch towing the barge
to go ahead. The launch proceeded too
fast and both life and signal lines
parted. In another moment the air

the anchor, and was towed 500 feet
over the bottom, the weight Of his div.
