WAR PROPHECY COMES TRUE
Russian Bankers Prediction. Seven

Only seven years ago M. Bloch. the

famine; not the Staying Of men, but
the bankruptcy OF nations, and the
breaking up Of the whole social or
ganization of the nations"

Of the nations engaged may be the de-
Gliding factor In the wars conclusion.
But on the whole, and as matters stand
today. that part Of M. Bloch's prophecy
referring to the predominant influence

IL thoroughly borne out by the facts.
Despite the fearful and fatal strug-
Cling of an incredible number of men,
consuming Uncomfortable quantities of
munitions, and using such amazing
methods Of fighting as are beyond even

and general economic problem are the
predominant features Of the war sit

New York-Paris has sent her
clothes over here. We have viewed
them. They have been acceptable In
large measure and approved OF In full
measure. And yet observes promi-
nent fashion writer. we don't under
stand why they should be as they are.
They are a somersault from what has
been. Paris has preached occurrences,
economy. simplicity and modesty. Her
cloths have been symbolic Of the tidal
wave of depression that swept over her
spirit since 1914.
The Reason for the Change.
DO you realize why Paris has sent
us over such brilliant, alluring, rich
clothes? 1t is because American mon
ey has burst upon her with such force
that she has gone up in balloon, fig
uratvely speaking.
France settled herself down for de-
mure clothes on the day Of the war
and has kept to this contract with
herself, compelling the rest Of the
world to dress likewise; but in the
autumn of 1917 there burst upon her
astonished vision the vanguard Of
America. They were not commercial
buyers, they were not cosmopolitan
mutl-miIlionaires who aped the French
woman. They were the true repre-
'sentatives of country whose vastness
and resources France had only guess
cd at. Boys in blue flannel sailor suits
had bank accounts Of ten thousand
dollars each; women in Red Cross
uniforms could afford five hundred dol
lars per gown, II they wished; priyates
In khaki paid their bills without look
Ing at their change; canteen workers
hid under their collars strings of
pearls worth fifty thousand dollars.
All these Americans laughed and went
to the theater and ordered expensive
dinners and joked with the midinettes.
The confusing part about this stu
alton is that America Is getting into
the spirit of economy aud somberness
that Paris had a year ago. Our re-
formers preach standardization, uni
formity in clothes; our economists
preach conservation our emotionalists
beg us to go about In black. without
smiles and turning our heads from the
wiles of pleasure, as though we were
early PAritnns.
Chemise Robe.
Among the new evening gowns from
France this spring the twelfth century
tunic Is as frequently seen as in the
street gowns but the effect of the two
Is strongly differentiated. For the eve
ming the designers use narrow. slim
primitive slip of satin or metallic
cloth the latter preferred. Over this
slip drops q much wider, more voluni
nous, transparent robe. 1t Is cut like
chemise; it has a half low decol
ietage; the sleeves usually cover tn,

iceable as those worn by the Italian
police, and those who care for the
qaietness OF distinguished clothes can
put one of these over a slightly worn
and much-used frock, thereby enclOs-
ing an old friend In new frame and
presenting a brave front to world
days.
But Paris does not stop at these de-
mure capes. Her ecstatic mood shows
itself In capricious and exquisite gar
ments called capes, which are fash
icned for afternoon and evening wear.
They are made in Chinese colors, In
Slavic tones, of satin and chiffon and

A few months ago young Western
ranchman returned to his home in a
city in southern Illinois and was mar
r1ed to girl Of childhood acquaint-
ance, she a maiden from a farm. That
was the beginning of the comfortable
little home which had its locus In the
cottage shown in the Illustration; the
plans were sketched by the couple
while they still rented.
The man OF the house had spent ~
years in a two-room "shack" on the
Western plains. There he accumu-
lated comfortable sum and there he
learned something about inconveni-
ence.
From the poorly lighted, cold and
but fairly well ventilated place he call
