Dangerous Practice.
Some unscrupulous person has
been putting cut poison evidently in
tending to get rid of some Of the
surplus dogs around town. This is a
very dangerous practice. When poi
soned food is scattered around, it is
uncertain as to who might pick it
up. Little children often pick up such
things and might very easily BE- poi
soned in that way. Such practice
should not be tolerated.

and cuffs of red and white striped
silk, and there were visored caps of
red satin and patent leather trimmed
with a dark blue band.
AS General Joffre rode from the
city hall to upper Fifth avenue, he
must have wondered at the over
whelming display of his own colors,
Perhaps not realizing that America
was exploiting herself as well as
France.
1t is no longer a question as to
whether the three colors will be in
troduced into fashion through the en-
trance of America into the war; it is
a question as to how they shall be sup
pressed.
The colors of our flag are exception
ally lovely, and bits of red or blue
introduced into the costume freshen
and enliven it; but a studied and con-
tinuous array of the three colors
joined together in some type of cos
tune should become a dead fashion
because OF it's monotony, IL Cor nothing
else.
The Wearinf of the Capes.
The widespread demand for army
capes cut in any fashion that different
sections of the army wear, is accepted
| by all the makers of women's clothes
as a dominant fashion. 1t has given
the tailors a good chance to break
loose into a mass of work which Is
ready for instant sale.
Coats and skirts have not been de-
manded as much as usual this spring,
and even elaborate afternoon frocks
| have been partly replaced by sport
suits; therefore, the coming of these
military capes into the fashions of the
hour has proved boon to those who
deal in cloth.
There are far too many designs in
these capes to attempt to describe
them, but the general silhouette must
| be slim, there must be an opening of
some kind on each side for the arm,
: the collar must be a pretenttous and
I elaborate affair and the cape must fall
well below the knees.
AS a garment it has become q seri-
Gus rival to the top coat. This is nat
ural Several years of the top coat
as a constant garment and its increase
in fashion during the last two years
have put one or more into the posses
sion of most women, until they feel
they have enough top coats to last
them until the fashion is dead.
For the several varieties of capes
that are worn, the choice of materials
is usually limited to thin, dark blue
serge. white broadcloth. black and
white checked wool and sometimes
deep red broadcloth.
In all the capes there is no ten
| dency to hide the openings at the
sides which serve as armholes. There
Is a wide band of soutache braid,
sometimes the application of another
color with embroidery. or pieces OF the
material cut into points. scallops or
| battlements.
One of the dark blue capes which is
lined with army red has twelve-inch
| openings for the arms which are
edged with small blue bone buttons
and buttonholes, so that any part OF
the opening can be fastened whenever
desired.
When one tires of bright colors. the
! mind constantly turns to black and
white checks. There are seasons

this flower is often cut out of bright
red or bright blue cotton and applied
to the hanging pocket of a sport skirt.
Nearly all the pouch pockets are bril-
liantly lined, the top turned over to
show this lining in the shape of a cuff
The favorite way of treating pockets
is to soutache them. This is within
the scope and comprehension of the
amateur worker, and the result, even
when carelessly done, is strikingly
good. As there is no effort to make
any OF the pockets small, a consider
able amount of soutaching can be en-
ployed. On one sport suit the triangle
pockets are twelve inches in diameter,
and on another skirt of white wool jer-
sey, from an expensive place, the peck
cts are about fourteen inches long and
twelve inches across, running up to
points at each side and loosely drop
ping away from the skirt at the top.

of the women to wear the red, white
and blue in every possible way, and
some of the smart set launched fash
ions that may become part of the
seasons STYLES.
There were flag blue frocks of silk
with brilliant red belts on sashes and
a white star embroidered on each
shoulder, and there were caps taken
from those of the French guard of
1870, with the wide strap under the
chin and the red. white and blue cock
ade floating in front.
There were red, white and blue sun
shades to match handbags. There
were army capes of every kind in
dark blue lined with red and show
ing white satin collars. There were
military suits of blue serge with lapels

to sport clothes, but have become a
smart bit of trimming on evening
gowns. In the latter capacity they are
made of colored tulle heavily threaded
with jewels, and on one especially
good gown they are carried like small
buckets by a long rope of brilliants
that passes around the neck.
There are pockets that droop and
pockets that are squarely placed across
the material in a military manner.
There are pockets that are shocked,
quilted, embroidered and soutached.
On white wool jersey skirts there
are large pockets trimmed in the
peasant manner of applying a design
in bright colored cloth with a button
hole stitch.
Because of the popularity of the
single rose as an ornament for gowns,

exploit one-fftieth as many flags as
one CITY in America during the flrst
week that war was declared; for in
addition to all the methods by which
the flag itself was exploited, several
million people wore the colors in their
buttonholes wrapped about their hats
and pinned to their shoulders.
One young woman even took it
upon herself to pin the flag on its
standard to the shoulder of her coat
suit. and from that point of vantage
II has foated ever since the war begin.
Billions of buttons showing the
flag were sold in two weeks, and
then the dressmakers and designers
OF all sorts OF women apparel saw
to it that the colors would be intro
duced into their field of work.
BY this time one begins to feel that
the critic was right. The flag has be-
