COKE FOE FUEL

Colorado Springs, Colo, Sept. a
Seventy per cent more coke than
ever before will be available this

This supply will be further increased
by the development of tar, coke oven
gas and other by-products newly dig
rifed in war time as available fuels.
These were some new facts present

REALLY NO SECRET
Power 10 Charm Lies in Forget
fuIness of Self.
Women Who Fascinate Have Simply
Developed the Art or Power of
Putting Others "On Good
Terms With Themselves"

A vivaciouS woman writer seeking
the secret of feminine fascination,
finds it in the art or power some wom-
en- have of charming others by putting
them, as bluff Britisher phrased it,
''on ripping good terms With them
selves" Is not this a characteristic
of almost al those persons, men and
women, whom we like the best and en-
joy the most? Do they not, either by
artifice or by instinct, endeavor to
make the people they meet feel that
they amount to something, know some
thing, have some excellence, attrac-
tiveness or interesting qualities, and
thus put them on pleasant terms with
themselves. The persons who ere
least adept at this or least inclined to
try it are the self-centered, self-impor
tant people completely absorbed in
their own affairs and not wise or we'll
bred in little worlds of which they are
the centers, and may be said in a Ger
tain sense to rey0lve about them
selves.
This is a characteristic brought up
from lower forms of life from which
we are ancestrally derived and only in
part outgr0Wn. For most animals the
only concerns of the least Importance
are those which directly affect them
selves. They are egocentric. The
things that toucl' them make up their
world and they have no interests out

NAL the dog can sink his personality
so to speak. subordinate himself and
make his masters interests his own.
Only infrequent individuals of other
species can or will do this. Hence dogs
as q rule are more c0mpanion2ble for
man than any other living creatures
below him in the evolutionary scale.
But to return to human beings, JO-
sepEine was the most beloved and
charming woman in France because
she took a genuine and kindly Interest
in the affairs of all with whom she
came in touch She was outgoing, in

all observant people that in selfies5-

One Of the homeguard boys had on
a uniform that was too large for him.
While waiting on the station platform
for the train to come the commander
noticed this boy and coming up to him
turned him around and around, look

he said: young man, that suit does

The boy. not realizing to whom he

Luck favored him and the comman-

ceived some variations in the form OF
trimming. For instance, blue and
white foulard are used with IL.
Moire silk and ribbons of modernist
patterns are promised for the borders
of tunics and of panels, maybe. Jet,
too, is to be used largely for trimming.
Collars are promised high with
points and flaring pieces projecting in
a smart way under the ears. But we
have been threatened with high collars
before this Who shall be brave enough
10 say that we must adopt them willy
nilly?
1t will be noticed from all of the

that q subtlety Of detail has taken the
place of the former change in silhou-
cite which happened from season to
season. We have been denied spec
tacular change, but we have been CIV
en- in its place a far more artistic
thing, the attention to detail which, at
ter all, constitutes the art Of the we'll
dressed woman.
One Of the quick ways which have
leaped into fashion for women to con-
serve wool for the armv is the use OF
a short. slim, separate skirt with a
cutaway coat of velveteen, heavily
lined. Women who have such costumes
declare that they will wear these
skirts with corslet blouSes of soutached
silk and satin in the spring. thereby
saving cotton for the government.
Hats made of worsted have already
been replaced by those of satin and
velvet. Entire coat suits made OF
worsted have narrow bias hounce'
mounted on a taffeta or satin founda
ton. The short jacket which goes
with these skirts Is so heavily trimmed
with fur and has such wide waist
coat of satin or matelasse that 1t cal

DRESSES OF LACE
Lin1erie Frocks Also to Be Among
Spring FavoriteS.
Net, FiIet and CIuny Are Numbered
With Successful Varieties-Voiis
and Tinted Materials.

Lace afternoon dresses and lingerie
frocks are to be worn this spring. ac-
cording to some indications. At an ex-
hibition held recently, writes fashion
correspondent, some of the most at
tractive gowns made from or In COM
bination with American made laces
were shown.
The adaptability of the American
manufacturer was here very clearly
demonstrated, for the laces included
most of the best-known varieties
cluny, venise, net and filet.
As to the gowns, they could honestly
be called successful. One especially at
tractive model had a one-sided draped
waist which showed the lace under and
over the chiffon which was used for
the gown.
Lingerie dresses are in fleSh-c0lOred
and pale-tinted fabrics, and tinted as
well as white laces are used with them
also little inSets of embroidery.
Among the Smartest of these frocks
for summer wear are the voiles and
tinted voileS, with sOutache braiding
in patterns which are conventional In
design for the most part, no matter
how much ground they may cover.
For trotter frocks and street wear IN
general, are frocks of silk jersey, some
of which show a clever use OF nat
braid, applied closely in rows. Dark
blut, taupe, and black are the usual
! colors, and the braiding usually match
es rather than contrasts with the
| dress. Button-up-the-back dresses,
wide-braided girdles and models with
| high collars are new or old features
of this seasons gowns, just as you
! choose TO look at it.
Silk frocks in bright colors show
overdraperies of chiffons and indie
structible wolfe.
Pongee was used for a spring suit
which was embellished with braidine
and further boasted of a dotted foularo
vest, with the conventional points ii
the front. The braiding ran up anc
down both sides of the front anC
around on the skirt part of the coat
In spite of all this decoration the col
ors matched exactly except for thu
white spots on the vest, and the sim
pie lines helped to give the desired
air of simplicity
Midnight-blue satin was the materia

cut with short bobbed-off Elton JACKIE
and wide sleeves cut off at the wrists
with undercuffs of Chinese crepe add

and down and collarless. Cuffs an

FROCKS FOR STOUT WOMEN
Avoirdupois is Being Overcome by Ex'
perts Who Make the Overweight
Persons Stylish.

Avoirdupois is not worth a picayune
as an excuse for dowdiness nowadays,
for too many experts are at work max
ing the stout figure as fashionably cor
rect as any. True, observes fashion
writer, there are styles which only the
thin woman can wear, but her stouter
sister is never by any means excluded
from all that is smart and attractive.
Some seasons more than others tend
to make the stout woman's selection an
easier one and this season is like that.
First of all, there is that surplice
line of the bodice, which Is always be-
coming to the stout, especially when
1t can be accommodated TO any waist
line.
The stout woman has been told that
she should never wear glossy fabrics.
You can hardly blame her for yielding
to lovely satin, can you? But II she
does, il should be Of n dark shade, and
made on lines which suggest length OF
figure. A black and white gown does
wonders with long white gorgette
collar. becomingly rounded neck line,
and a surplice waist again.
Everybody Is wearing a tunic these
days, even the woman Of too much
weight. But here is a conservative af
fair, girdled at becomingly low waist
line and long enough OF skirt not 10 de
tract from her height. The panel idet
Is always a great help TO stout figures
Colors. bright ones, are To be summed
by the stout woman. IL she does In
dulge in anything light, IL should never
be conspicuous.

In deciding on the length OF the
skirt for your new dress you have con-
siderable Ieeway. A prominent French
says that nothing should
be shorter than six inches from the
floor. Some Of the distinctive evening
and afternoon frocks are considerably
longer than this. and street and sports
frocks are worn shorter than this with
perfect tmpunity.
