American soldiers in France can re ceive but one Christmas package each this year and each package must weigh not more than three pounds, ac- cording to regulations announced by the war department Boxes Tor men in the navy, however may weigh tWen- ty pounds.
 The regulations governing Christi mas packages for soldiers have just been completed after conferences be- tween the war and postofiice depart ments and the American Red Cross.
 "The men themselves will decide who is to send these parcels. They are now receiving Christmas parcel labels with instructions to mail these labels to the person in this country from whom they wish to receive the holiday box.
 "No Christmas parcels will be &C., cepted for shipment after Nov. 20. The cardboard boxes or cartons to be provided for these parcels are inches by inches by 9 inches in size. When packed, wrapped, and ready for mail- tAS tAcSt pOA6o lAIlSI liOl WClSl HUI C than three pounds"
 The American Red Cross has agreed to provide these cardboard boxes and to supervise their distribution to rela- tives of the soldiers who present the proper Christmas parcel label creden- tials. The following is an outline of the procedure to be followed by per sons planning to send one of these par cels abroad:
 On receiving one of these Christmas parcel labels it should be presented at the nearest chapter, branch, or aux Hilary headquarters of the Red Cross, where the holder will receive a carton. These labels are not expected to reach this country before Nov. l. but by that time each Red Cross branch will have its allotment of boxes, based on the number of soldiers in service over- seas from that community.

Hookworm in the Army.

A report of the surgeon general of the army states that in two regiments recruited from two gulf states, hook worm infection was found to the eX- and 32 per cent in the other. It is significant that both regiments showed an unusually large mortality due to measles and to lung and bronchial troubles. Measles occurred two and q half times as frequently in men with hookworm as in those free from It.. Measles patients suffering from hook worm were twice as likely to fall vic tims to pneumonia and kindred dis eases.-Scientific American.

Just as the perplexed reporter of fashions is about to begin to describe some fetching new fur garment as a cape, she discovers that 1t has an in- diSputable claim to be called scarf. Ard when she has decided that it be- longs to the straightforward, upright and downright scarf family, she finds 1t consorting with a belt, something scarfs and capes have heretofore not done. Eccentric and interesting these are the terms that belong to the small fur garments that have lent a willing ear to tales of alluring camou- dage this season. They look like so many things we finally have to call them by the most indefinite of terms merely "garments"-they are that any way.
 Here is one of them which is a cape SO far as the back and shoulders are concerned, scarf so far as the front goes, and a jacket, if we take the belts word for it. It Is made of Hud- son seal and has collar of Siberian squirrel. And this is another charac- .eristic of fur garments this season. Hardly one of them but has two kinds of fur in it's makeup.
 The little fur wrap shown in the illustration, worn with a heavy suit, IS warm enough for average winter weather and an ideal affair for au- tumn and early winter. Women wear these small garments with wonderful grace and 1t Is no wonder that furs have carried over into the summer months. It is for style-and they
