WITH THE RANKS.

Twenty-nine young women in New York who have donned the specia1 uniform that makes them members of Uncle Sam's Signal Corps are about to brave the perils of the firing line in France in order to serve the allies as telephone operators.
 A blue uniform has taken the place of the skirt and shirtwaist ot the New, York telephone exchanges and a soft hat, banded by the Sigma Corps. hat band, has been substituted for the miscellany of millinery that abounds there. A white brassard on which is embroidered devices showing the standing of the operators will be worn in accordance with the rules of international law to establish their standing as non-combatants.
 The junior operators will wear T black telephone transmitter embroid- cred upon their brassard, a laurel wreath is added to this for the su- pervisor and the chief operator wears the two symbols surmounted by a streak of lightning in yellow.
 In most cases the women will serve beyond the zone of fire, but their du- ties will keep them in close -toucf with actual military operations, ani all of them have expressed theil willingness to serve as close to Ger man batteries as necessity required

WOmen's Day at Atlas Turkish Baths Brings BridgepOrt's
 Foremost Beauties There.

Today is "Women's Day" at the Atlas Turkish Baths, on aFirfeld ave- nue. The lounging rooms will find Bridgeport's most noted beauties re- clining in luxury while their bodies and faces are steamed and scrubbed.
 It has become almost a habit with them since Prof James Atlas, pro- prietor of the baths, inaugurated the innovation in Bridgeport some years ago, for it has been found that where the ordinary facial massage parlors gave beauty but to the external fea- lures, heAlthy invigorating powers are derived from application of the masseuses' art to the entire body.
 The Atlas baths boasts of Americas s most noted women bath experts, facial artists and rubbers. With the newly installed and largest needle-bath in America, variations of hot and cold applications to suit the nervous strength of the patron is now possible.
 The appointments of the Atlas bath | are the best in New England. Open to women on Fridays from a. m. to 1 D. m. Men aren ot permitted until after the women's closing hour. Cour- tesy promptness and efficiency are | the watchwords upon which Prof. Atlas business has been bui1t-Adv.

ELIZABETH WALLET.

The first English suffragette was probably Elizabeth MalIet, founder of the London Daily Courant, the first number of which was issued 216 years ago today. This was the world S first real daily newspaper. Before Elizabeth's venture a daily market re- port had been issued for some time in Germany, and a daily royal bulletin had been posted on the walls of the palace in China, but neither of these could properly be called a newspa- per. Perusal of early copies of the pioneer daily, the property of the British Museum, has revealed the fact that Elizabeth Mallet was a staunch advocate of "woman's rights" The fact that it was a woman who issued the first daily newspaper has been used as an argu- ment by the suffragettes of today.

Nothing ages a woman like worry ex- cept illness, and more often than not. Illness is brought about by worry.
 It is to be deplored that the ma jority of elderly women do not arrange their hair softly about the face, in stead of neatly as they call it. Of course one wishes to be neat, but not to the extent of primness.
 A woman who is no longer young should pay more attention to groom ing than her daughter. There is more necessity for care when one is fading than when in the radiance of youth.
 Change the arrangement of your hair from the slicked-back coiffure to one of soft waves. Coil the ends softly at the back instead of in the hard, unlovely knot, that for years has been the most prominent feature of your head-then notice how much younger you will look.
 Almost without exception we must wave our hair if we would appear young. Straight hair is becoming to very few women. Women whose hair does not wave naturally should curl it by means of curriers' which are to be had in an infinite variety of forms.
 Roll the hair upon the curriers' dur ing the morning hours, dampening it a trifle if it doesn't curl easily. Then wear a pretty breakfast cap with a softening frill of lace about the face which is an excellent substitute for the softening effect of the hair.
 Age first beins to show in forehead and ears and the middle-aged wo man requires the softening frame o, her own tresses. Arrange the waved hair loosely, bringing it down over the forehead and over the tops of the ears.
 The hands, too, need attention Q.

the skin soft, smooth, white and plump with nourishing creams and lotions.
 Women who are thin will frequent Iy discover that age marks first ap- pear about the neck and throat. Those who have seen Sara Bernhardt have observed her extremely high collars of soft, emi-transparent materials. The Divine Sara has adopted this method of concealing the tell-tale lines of age. Others should follow her example and be most particular in selecting their neckwear.
 For the middle-aged woman whose neck is plump, or even slender with out being scrawny, there are soft if chus and frills. The softening influ- ence of these graceful neck draper ies is almost unbelievable; even hat chet features will yield to such skill full treatment.
 The elderly woman should pay a great deal of attention to the adjust ment of her hat. In many cases she perches her hat or turban on the top most pinnacle of a severely plain coff- | fure, thus exposing, instead of art l fully concealing and softening, the evidence of age. Bring the hat well down over the hair, so it will form frame for the upper part of the face. Let a softening fringe of hair extend from beneath the hat to soften the line of the brim and give youth to the forehead.
 Last, but far from being least, re- lax the muscles about your mouth fz- age. When you find that the muscles of your mouth are tense, relax them at once. The elderly woman, more than any other, needs to have a pleas ant expression.

COLORS TO BE BROWN, GRAY,

Low as to heels and shoe tops and
subdued as to colors will be the shoes
of 1918, declare dealers, the changes
being necessary accompaniment of
war conditions.
"The longer the war keeps on the
scarcer leather will be-" it is declar-
ed. "The government is DESTROYS of
saving leather, and for this reason
doesn't want shoes too high this year
Under the federal ruling shoes
can't be made higher than nine inch
es. No factory can violate that order
and get away with it.
In the same way the factories are
restricted by the government as to
what colors they may use. Two
grays, two browns, black and white
are all that are allowed. As is fitting
in war time conservative styles are
to be the rule, say dealers.
High shoes have been popular for
women's wear in the summer for
several years past. This will not be
true this year, dealers declare. They
predict the biggest kind of a season
for low shoes and pumps.
The popularity of Sensible"
styles brings out the fact that at
least 40 per cent. of women now
wear low heels.

ing demagogues, who, in a period of
strain and stress, of excitement and
hysteria, confuse loyalty to the coun-
try with subserviency to an official,
and who purposely ignore the fact
that every senator owes his country
a high duty, in no respect less sacred
and in many respects Titles less i'm
portant than the duty of the presi-

whenever bills ripen into statutes
and policies crystalline into law then
obedience to the law is the bounden
duty of every loyal American, be he
president of the republic, senator of
the United States, representative in

but until bills do ripen into statutes
and policies do crystalline into law
it is not only the undoubted right
but also the undoubted duty, of ev-
cry senator and representative to
give to the country the best that is in
his heart and head, and to give to the
country his own Independent judg-
ment based on the best information
that he can obtain, and the most
careful consideration of which he is
capable, with reference to each and

act upon, and that senator or that

cause he fears abuse or breads cal
