WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN
FRANCE, Sunday, Oct. 20.-Douai, in
its waste and desolation, is a sad
sight Moving pictures Of the city
should be taken so that the world
could see for itself sights which can
not be described.
The streets are filed with furniture
and articles of all kinds. 1t might be
said that in Douai all the insane asy-
lums had been opened and that mad
men in their fury had taken delight in
destroying everything. The material
losses are incalculable.
The stained glass windows in the
church of ST. Peter have been smashed
and the great organ had been broken
up. Religious ornaments were found
scattered about the floor of the church.
The city hall. where the German
has his quarters was
pillaged and sacked. Most of the
paintings in the museum were taken
away, but fortunately the belfry was

Keep an. empty spool in your sew ing basket and wind on it hastings you have removed.
 You can prolong the life of new stockings by running. alarming thread loosely along the heels and in chill dren's stockings by basting a piece of old stocking under the knee portion
 If you haven't a cardboard hat box make a bag out of cheese cloth or any remnants you have about the house, put a drawstring in it and hang your hat away from dust.
 When my sheet music tears apart loosely buttonhole the sheets together with basting thread.
 Nut shells make good fuel in open grates, blaze prettily and crackle and snag genially.
 Give your broo1ns an occasional hot bath, preferably on wash day when you have plenty of hot, sudsy water. Keep brooms hanging when not in use---makes them last longer and keep shape hetter---broons with bam- boo handles are not nearly as tiring to use.

Diary of a Fashion Model
She Learns How Lovely Cape May Be Designed for
 Debut ante
Debut ante.
By GRACE THORNCLIFFE

Greenes came in with her mother to esting to watch the clever way in which Madame guided her taste. Of course, Miss Lucille wanted something in carmine or in electric blue, and when her mothers back was turned I saw her tiptoe carefully to a rack where burnt orange velvet for old Mrs. Hammersly had been carelessly thrown!
 But her attention was speedily dis tracted when Madame brought in a typical young girls evening cape that reminds one immediately of buds and springtime, of youthfulness and light ness.
 The color scheme of this cape Is apricot and blue-violet, and it is the softest, most seductive combination imaginable. The material for the cape is faille silk, and it is faced with blue-violet chiffon. The carelessly draped shawl collar is of apricot faille and is finished with a deep ruffle of cream lace.
 The same lace and line is repeated at the bottom of the cloak, so that the cape itself seems to be quite short and the lace has almost the effect of appearing from under the cape.
 This cape fastens at the shoulder and is clasped with an o1d-fashioned apricot-pink rose.
 In spite of the fact that there's considerable material and ruffling in this cape it's lines are so simple that it doesn't look ornate. Also, the wide shawl collar buckling on the side pro- duces an effect of simplicity and soft ness.
 The cloak falls in just a few very deep folds from the shoulder, and it's charming lines are accentuated by the lace ruffles at the bottom. This cape has no sleeve effect whatever, the bare arms coming through the ruffled opening that finishes the col- lar.
 There is a young, girlish touch of this effect of bare arms and throat rising out from the cloak. The high buttoned capes almost always are too mature looking for the young debu- tantee. The bare arms softened by the fall of lace near the shoulder make the cape seem a more informal garment.

ORGANDTE HATS.

One of the reasons why the organ die hat is going to have such vogue is because, first of all, it is so essen tially summery looking, and then it is so satisfyingly easy to make. How ever, you may find yourself stumped when it comes to making your partic- ular organdie hat look different from all the rest. Here are a few ways how.
 Instead of putting the organdie on flat, why not shir it on your founda- tion? It looks so much softer and it insures a better fit, besides. Another charming arrangement is the puffing Gather your covering at intervals of a generous inch or inch and half. Then pull the intervening spaces into puffs. Still another delightfully."- easy way to use the organdie is to buy the already ruffled stuff. Then all you have to do is to tack it at top center of the crown and wind it spiral fash ion all the way down.
 As for the actual trimming, there is an infinite variety of lovely things to do with flowers and ribbon. How about the yelled arrangement of flat flower trimming? Simply sandwich your conventionalized flowers of silk or velvet in between the double fold of the organdie brim. Should you choose to use ribbon, too, or ribbon alone, there is the beautiful arrange ment of big bow, all loops tackled to the top-top of the crown, and the loops brought down ana fastened along the inside edge of the brim.

Incidents in tue LiveS Of
 WOrLd- Famous Women
Snsw l ChiId's Determination
By ELOISE HARRINGTON

A dark Aaired little girl, only six years of age, stood quietly in a corner of the Cathedral at Palermo, Sicily.
 Awestruck, she listened for hours to the swelling, solemn notes of a huge organ as it played the 'rKyrie Eleison." Soprano and tenor voices and the plaintive notes of a violin mingled with the organ tones The child was thrilled and stood as though in a dream until the last note had died in the distance.
 Suddenly her father touched her on the shoulder. Come, child" he said. ''It's time to go home"
 She looked up at him. and in firm voice, which must have sounded ludicrous coming from that small figure, said:
 Father, must learn the violin"
 The child was Camilla. Urso, born in 1S42, in the city of Nantes, France. Her mother was a Portuguese, and her father an Italian musician, who play ed both the organ and the flute very ably. At one time he was the first f1utist in the orchestra at the opera, ana CdTTleu ueT IO Cll6 llStll0 WIIA him almost every night. Small as she was, Camilla never grew weary of the long performances, but sat wrapt in esctasy, never tired of hearing the operas over and over again.
 Ambitious though he was for his daughters musical education, it did not occur to Salvatore Urso to begin training his infant daughter in music.
 However, the child was insistent. and at the age of six she began ser iously to study the violin. Her pro gress was amazingly rapid. In one year she was ready to play at a con- cert.
 There was astonishment and amuse- ment among the citizens of Nantes when the Announcement was made of a concert to be given by a violinist seven years of age. But those who went to jeer remained to applaud, and next day the newspapers were enthusiastic in praise of the wonder fuI prodigy who displayed so supreme a mastery over so difficult an instru- ment.
 Unlike many similar prodigies who capitalize their youth and neglect

HIPPODAMIA.

Hippodamia was the daughter of Oenomaus, king of Pisa, in Ellis. An oracle had predicted to the king that he would be murdered by his son-in- law, and therefore he declared that. all the suitors of his daughter should con- tend with him in chariot race and that if he defeated them he should be allowed to put them to death. In this way he slew thirteen of the sev- enteen suitors, when Pelops, by brib- ing the driver of the kings chariot, had him overturned in the middle of the course, and the king was killed. Hippodamia married Pelops, and be- came the mother of Aureus and Thyestes. She killed herself from grief after having been accused of having caused these sons to commit fratricide.

tendency, Camilla ekpt her foot on . fragile saucer while she practised and the fear of breaking the dish was sufficient to keep her feet motionless.
 She played at many concerts in Germany and in France, but her first triumph was her appearance before Louis Napoleon, then President of the National Convention.
 Camilla was nine years of age at the time, but her wonderful boise, her agreeable repose, as well as her splendid technique, profoundly inn pressed the French ruler. He prais- ed her enthusiastically, and promised her that if ever he should advance in position or influence he would give her anything she asked.

NEW CUSTOM.

Not until the time of the Reforma- tion was marriage sanctioned as a rite to be fittingly performed within a church. Prior to this the customary place was at the door of the church, and not within the sacred enclosure
 This rule appears to have been transgressed, but until the publication in 1540 of the first Prayer Book of Edward VI, the Rubric of the Sarum Manual was in use, which directed that the man and woman about to be married should be placed before the door of the church.
 It was considered indecent to unite within the church itself.
 Chaucer in his Canterbury Tales" written in 1888, a1ludes to this cus- tom in his Wife of Bath," with the lines.
 "she was a worthy woman all her
 life;
 Husbands at the Church door had
 she five"
 Even as late as 1859 Elizabeth, daughter of Henry II, of France was married to Philip II, of Spain by the bishop of Paris at the church door of Netre Dame; while Mary Stuart had been married the year before to the Dauphin on the same spot.

USES FOR KEROSENE

Kerosene and soap rubbed on white goods will remove axle grease.
 After cleansing closets spray with kerosene to prevent moths.
 Kerosene oil applied nightly to corns and bunions cures them.
 Take old hose, soak them in kero- sene and dry in open air; make good dust cloths.
 Used internally olive oil will prevent appendicitis,
 Crushed onions will relieve pains from burns.

CROCHETED RUGS.

Side by side witbnoFiental rugs cost ing hundreds of aGiars you will find in the large carpet and rug shops the rag rugs are just as appropriate and just as stylish as the others.
 Did you ever make one? They are fascinating piecewerk, almost as en- crossing as filet crochet You may braid the rugs and sew them round and round or you may crochet them. The latter is the Pewer and easier process.
 For the beginner the hit-and-miss effect is easiest; besides, it gives one a chance to use up all sorts of odds and ends from the piecebag. Roughly speaking, it takes about pound and a quarter of rags to make one square yard of rug. Thick woolen rags nhould be torn about a half inch thick.
