LONG FAMOUS IN HISToM
Vicissitudes of Old City of Jerusalem
May Be Said to Be Without
a Parallel.

The capture of Jerusalem by Eng.
fish troops recalls the tragic and fas.
cinating story of that day, which car
ries us back through the mist of ages
to the days when the throne of David
was established within its walls. From
that date we pass to the glories of
the temple built by Solomon, which fol-
centuries was to stand as the center
and pivot of the Jewish nation and
faith. The time came, however, when
her days were nmbered, and the drama
of Calvary was followed a few years
later by the onslaught of Titus, the
Roman emperor, who encompassed the
city round on every side and leveled
it to the ground.
Round it's ruined walls Saracen and
Crusader were to fight continuously for
it's possession, and Christian knights
focked from all lands to the rescue of
the holy places, until in 1899 Godfrey
de BouillOn defeated his enemies and
was chosen as the first Christian king
OF Jerusalem.
Following this, for a considerable
period the city remained in Christian
hands, until in 1917 it was captured by
the Turks.

FOR FALL SEASON
Serges, Wool VeIourS, TricotineS,
Among Favored Fabrics.
Styles in Coats and Suits Are Said
to Be Leaning Toward the Smart
Iy Tailored Effects.

With the fall buying cas- fairly
under way, manufacturers of coats
and suits for women feel that they
are now in a position to form a fair
ly accurate idea as to what will be
the leading features for the coming
season, both as to materials and as
to the manner in which they are to
be worked up, says a fashion writer
in New York Times. There are few,
if any, new novelty materials avail
able for their purposes, and it seems
that for coats such more or less sta
pie fabrics as sergeS, wool v%elOurs,
tricotines, silvertones, and oxfOrds
are in the highest favor with buyers.
Some plain and novelty pushes are
also selling. The leading suit mate
rails thus far and those which manu-
facturers believe will be the best
throughout the fall and winter, are
broadcloths, mems wear serges, tri-
c%Otines, and a few pushes.
Styles in both coats and suits are
said to be tending Enthusiastically to-
ward smartly tailored effects. A Sc

which borders on the mannish are
creeping in, and partly for this rea-
son, it is thought, colors are usually
confined to the darker shades. While
this is given as the general direc-
ton in which styles are drifting,
there are, however, exceptions. Many
shades of tan are seen, ranging all
the way from sand to very dark
brown. There is also a liberal sprink-
ling in most lines of such shades as
geranium red, French blue and Nile
green. This latter color, however, is
said to meet with only perfunctory ap-
prevail either in coats or in suits.
Some houses are featuring furs for
trimming on both coats and suits, but
many others are using furs sparing-
ly. The majority opinion in the trade
seems to be that prices are already
high enough without the addition Of
expensive furs, and the early expert
ences in many shOwrOoms, from all ac-
counts, have demonstrated that buyers
with but few exceptions concur in this
belief.
There seems to have been consider
able effort expended this season on
the development of new ideas in col
lars for coats, and quite a few more
or less novel treatments have resulted
which are apparently pleasing to many
buyers.

LINKS ITALY AND AMERICA
Newly Installed Wireless TeIegraphy
Plant Is the Most Powerful That
Has Yet Been Built.

The announcement that Italy and
connected by wireless telegraphy de-
serves more notice than it has re-
ceived. This achievement probably
makes a back number Of the great
wireless station at Nauen, neal Ber-
lin, which has been so useful to Ger
many and which, when the war broke
out, claimed to be the most powerful
in the world, with an effective range
of between 5000 and 5000 miles. From
the nearest point in Italy to the
United States transatlantic station at
Arlington, near Washington, is not
less than 5000 miles,, and to send an
ineligible message across that dis
lance might be more than even
Nauen could accomplish. Owing TO
the hostility between the ether waves
which carry wireless messages and
sunshine, it is always easier to send
messages long distances in northerly
ATTITUDES than in those more South,
and the power required to cover a
given distance increases with near
ness to the equator. The wireless
route between Rome and Arlington is
for a good part of the way at least 300
miles nearer the equator than that
between Nauen and the United States,
which fact considerably adds to the
achievement of the italian and Ameri-
can experts.-London Chronicle.

ITO Be ContInued.l
THAN ANY THUNDER
Modern Guns Make Noise That Is Far
Above That of "Heaven's
Artillery"

Every big noise is compared to
thunder, as if heavens artillery were
the greatest noise imaginable. We
speak commonly of "the thunder of the
guns" and the poets have always
spread themselves on the terrific can
nonade of a thunder storm. But the
plain fact is that mans artillery beats
the clouds into fits, if the distance at
which each can be heard is any cri-
terion IF the intensity and volume of
sound.
The gunfire in Flanders has been
heard in London countless times,
while it is quite impossible to say
how far the famous mineburst on the
Vimy ridge, produced by human
agency, though not g%unfire, could be
heard. But it is doubtful whether the
loudest thunder that ever pealed has
been heard 20 miles away.
One of the greatest thunder storms
of recent years occurred in the Rich
mond area, but not a sound of 1T
reached London, and it is on record
that when the church steeple of Lost
withiel was destroyed by lightning to
the accompaniment of such a roar OF
thunder as the oldest inhabitant could
not remember, no sound was heard 30
miles distant.
The explanation of this seeming
anomaly is possibly the fact that
thunder is produced in the air, and the
sound is conveyed by earth waves
rather than by air waves.-London
Chronicle.

heart to heart, and the girl stared in
Enderly's eyes with a wild, wondering
surprise.
"You-yOu," she murmured breath
lessly. "You are not Charley, at all !"
and she moved to release herself.
"Oh, yes 1 am" smiled Enderly, let

But not my Charley! You sell

Just then there was a swift step on
the gravel drive and they turned on
the intruder quickly.
"HelloI That you, Sis he asked
eagerly. Then he reached out and
caught her about the shoulders, hug
ging her with a laugh, as he inspected
Enderly ~curiously. "Why, it's Ender-
ly," he said, extending his hand.
"'Member me? Member Charley
Stanton, the kid you coached on the
fore-hand drive? Sis was only twelve
then-awful skinny legs! Member?"
he chuckled on.
And her it was that Enderly re-
membered the Stantons and the two
Stanton children. "But why the secret
rendezvous, brothers and sisters?"
asked Enderly c%uriously.
Young Stanton grinned at his sister
a little shamefacedly. you've been

ours truly. Darn fool-awful mess

to walking down with me?"
So Enderly sauntered along with
them, listening to their chatter. The
boy was full of his job and his rising
success, but the girl was silent for the
most part. She couldn't rub out the
feel of Enderly's kisses long enough to

ing Has Led to Revival Of
an Ancient Art.

While the war has wrecked some In
dustries in France. it has at the same
time created new ones and revived
older crafts. An excellent and inter,
esting example of the latter is the art
of cSndlestick making, which has
taken on a new lease of life. Even in
some of the big towns there are houses
which are not supplied with gas, where
before the war petroleum or spirit was
used for lighting purposes. Now that
the use of these is restricted closely,
recourse has to be made to the old.

This is true in the country especial.

first they were made of copper, but
when that metal became scarce brass

When I finally got through and
Strengthened up, there were still sew

pecially for this last achievement,

necessitated my going back onto Bel
gian soil again, but 1t seemed a shame
to leave the lace there, and by exer-
cising a little care l figured l could
get it easily enough.

1t does not take long to describe the

have taken me more than two hours

while the sentry passed. Many times,

night to last me a lifetime. With a
German guard on one side, death from

ton staring me in the face, my plight
was anything but a comfortable one.
1t was on the 10th of November,
1917, when 1 got through the wire. 1

By INES MACDONALD


After nearly ten years on the West
coast and in the Orient, Enderly had
come home. That gracious feeling of
belonging somewhere surged through
his heart as he strolled down the drive
of his modest estate underneath the
stars. 1t was good to be back again,
and he smiled as he leaned against the
stone column of the gate listening to
the music that syncopated through the
night from the country club some
three hundred yards down the road.
They were dancing! The youngsters
had probably overrun the place after
all these years, and then he laughed
to himself, for he had been n of the
youngsters at the time of his leaving,
and those who were kids then, were
the youngsters of today.
The lure of the music drew him
down the road and he entered the club
grounds and stood in the shadows of
the great trees. The swaying couples
circled past the long windows, the
light dresses of the girls swinging wide

was a ripple of applause-and, then
the music started again. A white hg-
ure slipped out of the door, stood hest
family at the top of the steps and then
descended. She paused for a moment
at the drive and then scudded down
through the trees toward the place
where Enderly stood against the wall.
Suddenly she stopped, peeriag into
the shadOws-and then discerned En-
derby in the gloom.
"Oh," she laughed lightly. There

she danced forward, throwing her
eager young arms about Enderly's
neck. 81 knew you'd make good" she
murmured, patting his cheek. And

Enderly was surprised. but, nothing
daunted, he permitted himself to be
embraced by this affectionate young
woman He even encouraged her q
little and returned four or five of her
kisses, but the last one had been given
with so much fervor and had lasted
such a length Of time that the girl fell
suddenly silent. Then the old moon
moved over a bit and spilled a shaft
of silver down through the trees right

LINGERIE TO BE ADORNED
"FriIIery" Must Be ornamented With
Hand Painting, Is a Coming
Edict of Fashion.

Well, girls, o will soon be wear
ing your own art gallery. Painted
lingerie is coming, and who knows but
what you will have a birdseye view Of
the Steel city, with its mills in full
blast, running around the bottom Of
your skirt? For it is said that lin
gerie that once screamed will make its
painted approach much more noise
lessly and without ostentation, but
with force. Oil paintings done to suit
individual taste on the lingerie are
among the fall announcements. Each
place is to follow a master design, and
sets will have their day in court. Thus,
a mosquito-net dress will put a spider
web stocking most eminently in the
shade, if not entirely out of business,
and a whole flock of vistas opens up
before those of us who have eyes with
limitless possibilities as to scenic eff
fects, with startling backgrounds and
atmospheric tonalities. Washington
Crossing the Delaware" Joan of Arc
Listening to the Voices" "The Battle
Of Waterloo" and examples of the
shot-to-pieces school may all be har-
messed to the new fad. The artistic
temperament may now take on a new
lease of life, in spite of the agitation
in favor of a tax on art ranging up to
25 per cent. 1t may mount upon eagles
wings. 1t may run without WEAKNESS.
1t may-but what's the use? The new
fad is a positive boon to struggling
artists from Maine to California, whose
productions have, since the war, had
to confront not only a sluggish, but a
positively dead market. Let US all
rise in our places and give three rous-
ing cheers for the application of
painting to lingerie.-New York Times.
