INNER MAN WELL FORTIFIED
American Soldier, Ordered to the
Front, at Least Did Not Set Out
on Mission Hungry.

An American doughboy entered
restaurant in the Rue Richelieu and
after carefully studying the menu, or
dered dejeuner.
The waitress brought him bacon and
eggs, cheese and pint of beer. When
he had finished eating, he paid his bill
and called the waitress.
"Now want some lunch"
This time she brought him plate OF
roast beef, vegetables and chicken,
which he washed down with half a
dozen cups of tea; then he paid his
bill and called the. wondering waitress
back again.
"Now, my dear, / want dinner"
He ate some beef, vegetables, ap-
pies and drank q bottle of wine.
At 1:3O, after having taken all three
meals at once, the soldier left the res
taurant, and little while later sci

nitrogen from Atmosphere.

There has been erected at the Unit
ed States department of agriculture's
experiment farm at Arlington, Va, the
largest experimental plant in the Unit
ed States for the production OF nitro
gen from air. The nitrogen so pro-
duced is combined with hydrogen to
form ammonia, which can be used In
the manufacture of explosives and fer
tilizers. Experiments with the view
of increasing the efficiency of the proc
ess are now being conducted by the
bureau of soils. The Haber process OF
manufacturing nitrogen is being en-
ployed. This process involves the pro-
duction of ammonia from hydrogen
and nitrogen. The two gases are mix
ed in the proper proportion, put under
high pressure and subjected to intense
heat. They are then passed over q
spongy iron, whereupon portion OF
the mixture combines to form am
monia.

Triumph of American Dyes.

The latest official reports for the fis-
cal year which ended with June show
that the American exports of aniline
dyes for 1918 amounted to $7,296,0SO.
This, when compared with our imports
Of aniline dyes in 1914, is significant
Of the strides made by American chem
lists in the dye situation. Germany
supplied these coal dyes before the war
and America paid more than $1,000, coo
a year for the products. Today Amer.
lea makes enough of the leading colors
for home needs and is supplying other
countries in large quantities, as the
exports indicate.
In the early days of 1915 there were
but seven companies in America pro
ducing colors. Today it is estimated
that there are about $50 concerns In
this line.

Whatever may be the fate of the
cape for daytime wear its reign is
not over. nor the end of it in sight, in
the realm of evening wraps. just as
we begin to wonder if it will not have
to abdicate in favor of something more
novel. along comes some such COM
polling and conquering example of it,
as that pictured above, and we join
the ranks of it's devotees and renew
our loyalty at once. This wrap really
deserves to be called gorgeous. 1t will
prove joy to its wearer, for it has
all the qualities that will win her the
admiration of those who have a fine
sense of clothes.
1t requires the sheen and body of
heavy silk to get the character of this
wrap, and it is made of taffeta, and
plenty of it. 1t is gathered, with
close rows of fine shirrings, with all
possible fullness into a deep yoke and
into three flounces at the bottom. The
yoke is rich with bold leaf and flower
designs in silk and metal threads, and
the work In embroidery and shirrings
is beautifully done. Such wrap
matches up well with the big, beauti-
full fan of ostrich feathers carried with
it, and demands something unusual
and lovely in the couture. Certain of
the darker shades in warm colors make
the best choice for this cape, or black
with colored lining might be selected
for older women.
Black satin, always sure to command
attention, and presented each season
because it is sure of welcome, APP
pears now in long, draped, capelike
garments with openings for the arms,

embroidered over its surface, with
