As to Proner Behavior.

"Streets and sidewalks are public
property. Citizens have the right to
walk on them, whether they wear
skirts, pantaloons or bathing suits, as
long as their behavior is proper. There
is no ordinance specifying the amount
of clothing a person shall wear in
the street." is the wisdom quoted from
the lips of Judge Howard Hayes when
passing upon the arrest of a young
woman who promenaded in her bath
ing suit. We agree with the judge.
The question is one of behavior. But
it is fair to ask whether promenading
the streets without any clothing would
be proper behavior.-Chicag Post.

Some Queer Moneys.

Iron money has been put into circu-
Iation recently in Germany. In Mex
leo cardboard money is in use, owing
to the disappearance of metal cur
rency due to the unsettled state of the
country.
Porcelain money is used in Burma
and Siam, and feather money, manu-
factured from the short red feathers
from beneath the wings of a species
of parrot, is the ordinary currency Of
the Santa Cruz islanders. The 10y
atty islands, which lie in the Pacific
to the east of Australia, are famous
for their fur money. The fur, which
Is taken from behind the ears of the

large, frHit-eating bat, is woven into
cords of various lengths, and these
constitute the ordinary currency of the
islanders.

1 feel 1t my duty, to emphasize that
the food situation is one of utmost
gravity, which, unless 1t be solved, may
possibly result in the collapse of ev-
erything we hold dear in civilization.
The only hope is by the elimination of
waste and actual and rigorous self
sacrifice on the part of American peo-
pie. We do not ask that they should
starve themselves. but that they should
eat plenty, wisely and without waste.

Promotion for Rear Admiral.

The title of rear admiral always
seems odd to the layman, says the
Springfield Union, but never more so
than when it is worn by a naval COM
as one may gather from the vague
hints the cables carry, putting in good
work against the enemy. Comment
ing on this, the Boston Transcript
suggests promoting such officers to the
title of ''front admiral"

The rooms thus placed conform to the
very best design practice in bedroom
1t provides windows in
two walls for each room and, by the
use Of the small hall connecting these
rooms with the bath, makes them in
dependent of one another without the
loss of a foot Of space. This hall is
entered from the dining room near the
French doors leading to the living
room. This plan stands for space
economy in every part. 1t provides
convenience and comfort in full pro-
portion to the cost.

The Season of Cuffs.

Perhaps the nurses uniform and the
various service costumes designed for
women who are taking an active part
in war activities have popularized the
trim collar and cuff effect. 1t is true,
whatever the cause, that neat match
ing collars and cuffs will be extremely
popular when worn with dark dresses
and the cuffs are to be close-fitting ant
wider than previously. The six-inch
cuff will be most in vogue and as any
woman knows a well-itting six-inch
cuff gives the wrist look Of extTem
trimness,

BaZar. For the tunic model the un-
derskirt must be very narrow, barely
one and one-half yards around in many
instances. The plain skirt when worn
with the long coat may be two yards
at the hem. Many of these skirts have
their fullness laid in large gathers or
small loose plaits at the waist, while
others have no fullness, other than
that necessary to preserve a graceful
outline. Tunic skirts will be the choice
for the velveteen and serge day dress
es; and the silhouette will be as
straight and slim as at present.

Whit. Clothes for the Kitchen.

Contrary to popular opinion, white
clothes are easily the most economical
for kitchen wear. For one thing, white
is the only thing that Is sure to come
back from the laundry the original
color, so looking fresh and new much
longer than any colored garment and
Tasting much longer. A big apron such
as butchers wear will protect the

moved quickly and easily when the

The little bungalow shown in the
accompanying perspective. view and
floor plan is interesting in that it's ar
rangement is quite out of the ordinary.
The exterior is finished in quite a
simple manner, although its appear
ance is not lacking in any respect.
The walls of the house are given the
character of three materials. The
foundation walls above grade are of
face brick. Above this and carried up
to the head trim of the windows, the
walls are finished with narrow beveled
siding. Under the gable ends the
walls are finished up to the roof with
timbered stucco. The perspective view
gives some slight idea of the rustic
appearance of the low-pitch gable roof.
The roof itself is unadorned- -charac-
terized by clean, sharp-cut outlines and
careful balance. The appearance is
dependent upon the correct selection
Of pitch and the general outline of the
roof rather than upon elaborate orna-
mentation. There are two brackets
under each gable end, these being ap-
propriate to the timbered stucco wall
surface: they constitute the only orna-
ments which are required to give the
building the appearance-effect which
the designer has deemed most appro-
pirate for this particular structure.
1t will be noticed that the railing
walls of the terrace are of face brick
while those Of the porch, on the other
side Of the house are Of wood siding
While this construction does not take
anything from the effectiveness of the
design and is really included for the
purpose of removing any trace of what
some people call ''stiff" effect, mean
ing that there is too methodical ad
herence to the symmetrical, it might
be criticized by some, in which case
there is no reason why either the one
or the other of the railings cannot be
| altered to conform with the other. Il
the change is desired. it would un
doubtedly be made in the porch rail
ing walls, which would be constructed
| of face brick with a white stone Of
concrete coping in order that conform
ity might exist between the founda
ton, terrace and porch walls. Tht

HAUBER THEATRE.

Seldom have two such perfect types" been so successfully con- trasted as are Philippa, played by dainty Anita Stewart, and Wildresse, played by bulky Anders Randolf, in '"The Girl Philippa," the new Vita graph eight-reel production of Robert w. Chambers great novel, which is showing at the Hauber theatre today and tomorrow.
 The powerful figure of MT. Ran tlolf sets off splendidly the slender girlish beauty and grace of Miss Stewart in intensely dramatic fash ion.
 Grim, bulky, brutal and crafty Wildresse, the master-spy and evil element in the destiny of the aristo- crat-peasant girl, is a thing of strength. He stalks through the story, a Hercules among williams,
 Playing "heavies" of the impressive type is specially of finders Ran dolf. Of late years he has often been cast with Miss Stewart in Vitagraph pictures. He will be remembered as Karatoff in ''The Suspect" and in other plays with this star.
