DANCING SLIPPERS ARE GAY
Footgear for Tripping the Light Fam
tastic May Be as Elaborate as
Wearer Wishes.

1t matters not how plain u frocks
may be, our little dancing slippers can
be rs gay as heart could wish. The
preferred footgear with these rather
somber and certainly very plain dress
eS is that Of silver cloth such rs we
have worn now for two seasons, with
or without buckles, just as you wish.
If buckles you choose, let them be is
large as your purse can afford, but
we'll made and not pasty looking at
that. AS there is a new silver cloth
which does not tarnish, but can be
wiped off with soap and water, every
woman halls the ''radium" slipper, as
il is called, jOyfully.
Again : new evening slipper which
can accompany any sort of gown Is
made of iesh-pink satin. Instead of
having a pointed vamp the top of this
is cut square across the foot and out
lined with Il tiny band of irideScent
beads reaching across the foot from
side TO side. 1t is new and very pref
ty-especially for our younger dane
ers.

COLORS THAT BEGIN TO WIN
Midnight Blue, Deep Burgundy, Tobac-
CO Brown and a Silver Blue
The Mermaid Frock.

So far the buying of French gowns
has not begun. They have just started
TO make their appearance from be-
lated shipments. But as far as the
American fashions have run, and as
far as the season has settled itself
down into a broad highway on which
we will tread, the colors that will win
out are midnight blue, deep Burgundy,
tobacco brown and a silvery light blue,
asserts n fashion writer.
BY the way, there is q remarkable
new gown in this silvery blue. 1t used
to be called lake blue, and it may still
60 by that name, for it has a peculiar
simmer Of white over it like surface
water or moonlight. 1t is worth de-
scribing in detail because 1t is new
and most alluring.
The gown made in it is a mermaid
frock, and all the material used is
crinkled into a machine pleating that
is finer than anything we have ever
known. 1t is q One-piece frOck, with
a skirt that clings to the hips, goes in
at the ankles and knees, then spreads
out into a little froth over the feet
which is kicked aside as the wearer
walks. There is a round bodice, with
a round decolletage, and two very fiat
pieces that extend below the girdle on
the hips. The sleeves are like fins,
very short and pointed at the back.
A woman with yellow hair could
wear this frock and pass for a mer-
maid. The gown is of so supple and
transparent q texture that when it Is
in the hand it shrinks into nothing
ness like a balloon with the air out
of it.

TOO WEAK
TO FIGHT

The Comeback man was really never
down-and-out. His weakened condition
because of overwork, lack of exercise, I'M
proper eating and living demands stimula-
ton to satisfy the cry for a health-giving
appetite and the refreshing sleep essential
to strength. GOLD MEDAL HARLEM Oil
Capsules, the National Remedy OF Holland,
will do the work. They are wonderful.
Three of these capsules each day will put
a man on his feet before he knows it;
whether his trouble comes from uric acid
poisoning, the kidneys, gravel or stone IN
the bladder, stomach arrangement or other
ailments that befall the over-zealous Amer
lean. The best known, most reliable rem
edy for these troubles is GOLD MEDAL
HARLEM Oil Capsules. This remedy has
stood the test for more than 200 years
since its discovery in the ancient labora,,
tories in Holland. 1t acts directly and
gives relief at once. Don't wait until you
are entirely d~own-and-out. but take them
today. Your druggist will gladly refund
your money If they do not help you. Ac-
cept no substitutes. Look for the name
GOLD MEDAL on every box, three sizes;
They are the pure. original, imported
HARLEM Oil Capsules.-Adv.

In n letter describing the behavior
OF domestic animals under fire a sol
der says: A big black mongrel came
into our improvised trench late n
afternoon. He had survived n terrific
ten hours b~ombardment of shell and
gas and sank down by my side utterly
exhausted. His body became Inert
and nothing. not even the tenderest
bits OF bully beef. would make him
move. His brown eyes looked mourn
fully into mine as II longing TO tell
me something. Just then the Boche
commenced strafing. and at every ex-
plosion n shiver ran through his body.
| do not know what became OF the
poor beast. There was an engagement
soon afterward and this big black
mongrel disappeared.

FALL COAT DRESS
velours or Satin Practical; Lines
Graceful and CIinging.
Separate Blouses and the Waistcoat
vogue--ModeIs Destined TO Com
piement Tailored Suit.

For early fall wear. before II is
cold enough 10 don n winter suit, a
coat dress Is one Of the most practical
purchases. Fashioned of tricolette, of
wool velours or tricotlne, as well as
heavy. double-faced satin, a dress or
this type possesses the utmost dis
tinction, and in its tailored simplicity
is a compromise between the usual
one-plece frock and the more conven-
tional coat and skirt costume.
Just at present there are any num-
Der Of interesting frocks OF tricolette
to be seen, and their clinglng. graceful
lines are most attractive. Some are
almost sheathlike in their sllmreSs,
and Ii behooves n woman to he quite
sure that she Is properly corseted be-
fore attempting such a gown, Cor
there are no folds or draper TO
camouflage discrepancies Of FIRE.
Navy blue. black and n r. - coppery
brown are the colors which FREEDOM
mate. and while some models show a
clever use of extremely long fringe,
others have just q bit Of heavy silk
braid about the neck OF used for a
sash.
Rarely is there n bit Of white to
relieve the severity of the neck line.
This is O trying fashion, but very
smart. Sometimes serge or satin is
combined with trlcOlette with excellent
results. The foundation is of navy
serge, and over this is worn a modi-
fed tunic dress Of navy tricOlette
stitched and showing novel touches
in the cut of the sleeves and In the
flaps, which are caught down by but
tons of serge.
Once merely an integral part Of
the frock or blouse, the waistcoat has
row become n decisive factor in de-
termining the success Of ones cos
tune. Made of every conceivable ma
terial, it serves 10 break the exceed
ing simple, almost evere lines of our
wartime frocks, and designers have
shown great ingenuity and cleverness
In planning and fashioning these lit
tie garments. They have gradually
heightened until now some reach al
most TO the knees, while others con-
tent themselves with stopping just
below the waiStline. As n rule a ma
terial is chosen which in texture is q
decided contrast 20 the gown itself,
Jersey is placed with satin, chiffon
with serge or pique, and linen with
velour, and the effect is always de
lightful, especially when the trimming
takes the form Of conventional motifs
done in old-fashioned embroidery
stitches, chain stitching, done in WOO
or silk-the seed stitch of Chinese
work, as well as odd designs carried
out by COUGHING or cross stitching.
Separate bloUses have not escaped
the waistcoat vogue, and there are
some wonderfully interesting model:
destined TO complement the TAILORED
suit which nee more is back IL

q waiStcoat of handkerchief linen, witt

Wireless Contact With q. S. Hos

NEW YORK. December 6.-The

day they had been unable to get in

States hospital ship Comfort since

less message received from the ves-
sci. which is returning from Europe
with American wounded troops, re-
ported she was delayed by a heavy
storm. but was not in distress.
It is believed by the military au-
thoritfes that the Comforts wireless
apparatus may have been put out of
commission by the storm. Army Of
fcers emphasized that other incom-
ing vessels have been similarly de-
layed by the storm conditions known
to be prevailing at sea.
Tho wounded soldiers on board
number 401. It is not known here
whether she carries any wounded
officers.
There is no cause for apprehen-
sion regarding the Comfort" said
Brig. Gen. G. H. McManus, in COM
mand of the port of embarkation.
All ships have been coming some
did not expect the Comfort to arrive
before today. 1t is not strange that
we have not been able to get the
Comfort by wireless, as something
may have gone wrong with her wire
