Is the business of special designers to

her, that awkward may not be men,

her clothing is carefully designed. If
she is too thin. that fact must be art

and, being corsetless, must be shaped
up by means of skillful lines in her

HOW WAR GARDENS HELPED

That Was Remarkable.

Americas backyard and vacant lot
food producers have come into a

and at the same time lessened the
traffic demands on railways by
growing this food near the kitchen

There were more gardens this year,

Gates that they are excited by an ac-
cumulatiOn Of feces.
No spotting.
(S) Before rene val from the ceE-
lar there should be no spotting of the
hives from dysentery. There may be
a little spotting after the bees have
had a free flight outside, but If this
is small In amount it does not indi-
cate q serious condition.
(9) When the bees are taken from
the cellar there should be no moldy
combs, for the cellar at the right tenn
perature will be too dry for the growth
of mOlds.
(1O) There should be no brood when
the colonies are taken from the cellar.
Brood-rearing in the cellar is proof
that the cellar is too cold or that the
food used by the bees is inferior.
(11) Enough brood should be in each
colony Mt the opening of the main
honey-flow to fill completely II Lang
stroth frames.
(12) The population of the hive
should not decrease appreciably after
the bees are removed from the cellar.
Such q condition, known as spring
dwindling, is an indication OF poor WIN
tering. For three weeks after the
hives are set out no new bees Will be
emerging, but the loss of bees during
the time should be so small as not to
be noticeable. Ia

This has proved to be season in
which more is required Of frOcks and
suits than In pre-war times. With the
very good intention Of saving wool or
labor, clothes have been created to
answer for different sorts Of wear, to
fit In with varying background, and to
make it possible to be we'll dressed on

one were to try to define the one thing
that distinguishes this seasons ap-
parel from all others 1t is likely that
the wearableness and adaptability of
outer garments would be selected as
the outstanding features. The street
suit that is easily converted into an
afternoon dress, and the frOck that Is
quickly adapted to street wear, are
fiourishing in the good opinion OF
women.

GOOD POINTERS
FOR BEEKEEPER.
Not Always Easy to Determine
= Whether Cellar Is Giving Sat-
isfactory Results. 49,.
THERMOMETER! IS NECESSARY Y
Few Measures Given So That Keeper
May Decide Whether Methods
Could Be lmproved-There
Should Be No Moisture.

(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
It is often difficult for the beekeeper
to know whether his bee cellar is CIV
ing the best results, for he may not
have been able to determine from
reading or observation of other Gel
lars whether it is satisfactory. Below
are given q few measures which the
beekeeper may apply to his apiary
and his cellar, so that he may be able
to decide whether his methods OF eel"
lar wintering should be improved.
(1) During the winter thermome-
ter inserted in the entrance of the
hive should show temperature of at
least SO degrees Fahrenheit.
(2) There should never be any con- .
densed moisture on the covers OF the
hives, and certainly never any on the
bottoms.
Keep Cellar Dark.
(3) While the cellar should be kept
dark at all times, If candle is held
at the entrance of a hive at the end
of January it should be several Sec
onds before any Of the bees break
cluster. Frequently the cellar doors
may be opened in March without dis
turbing the bees.
az There should never be many
dead bees on the bottom Of the hives.
The live bees should be able to push
them out as they die during the WIN
ter. The bees thus carried out will be
found OH the cellar floor just below the
entrances. If there are bees all over
the floor, it shows that these bees have
flown from the hives-an indication of
poor wintering.
(5) The bees should be quiet during
the late winter. Noise ut this time
indicates that the bees are disturbed
by an accumulation Of feces, caused
by low temperatures or poor food.
(G) If the bees were in good condi-
tiOn in the fall and have been wintered
we'll, the lois during the winter will
never be more than One-sixth Of the to-
tai population of the hive. Such q
loss is excessive, however, and In a
well-wintered colony it may be rs low
as hundred bees. This probably de-
pends to a large extent on the age of
the bees which 60 into winter, and II
the temperature Is right, and the stores
good there will be almost no loss o.
vigorous bees.
(7) The bees should not leave the
hive while they are being carried

The scene opens with our brave
bachelor hero alone in his bachelor
apartment-two rooms and bath in Hill
TONS "one-apaytment hotel"
He was wondering if it would be bet
ter to ask the girl who appealed most
to him as possible wife to marry him
and break it to her that she was also
expected to be stenographer, or
whether it would be better to look up
IA good stenographer and having select
ed her for her merits in this capacity
take chance ON the proposition OF
making her his wife. There were two
ways of approaching the situation.
The unalterable facts in the case
were that in his work in one OF Hill
toms recently created war industries
his efficiency was decidedly curtailed
because he had no stenographer, and
that after having used every means he
could think of he had not been able

sible rooms with a fine-tooth comb.
There were simply none to be had.>
Bradley had come six months before
when the boom in Hilton. was just
starting, and he had been fortunate
enough to get what at other times
would have been regarded as a rather
''bad buy in the way of an apartment.
1t had two rooms, and much as Brad
ley disliked the idea of sharing his
sanctum with a male stenOgrapher, he
had considered the proposition of get

and unusual, with suggestion Of the
Russian blouse in Its lines. The easy.
comfortable body is extended into a
pointed yoke at the top of the skirt
and has a smart high collar and a
deep cape ut the back. Length of line
is emphasized by the row of small
bone buttons down the front from
neck to hem- which Is not disturbed by
the narrow girdle Of cloth. A little
border Of fur ut the top of the wide
collar is a smart touch that could not
be spared. The skirt is ankle length
and might be very little longer for q
short figure.
The trottedr is as practical as a
street suit and is capable of much in
dividuality and distinction. A hat or
hag, or both, a fur scarf and muff, may
tone It up to quite formal dress; 1t
lends itself to accessories more or less
dressy and Is therefore a versatile and
interesting garment. r.

Only One Road to Moral Victory.
Psychologists tell Us that one OF
the great dangers of shipwreck Of our
mental and moral forces is the repres-
sion through which most Of US try to
make, our peace with the world. We
cannot gain peace while constantly
warring within ourselves. The way to
gain conquest over ourselves is to ex-
nress that which is good and let 1t
take the place Of that which is marrins
our lives. .+ 2

ties there for stenOgraphers anu she
was tired, to death of earning her pal
try fifteen a week in her uncle's law
office. So she had packed her belong
ings and was running off to Hill ton and
would let the people back home know
as soon as she reached there. Brad
ford listened attentively, and from time
to time looked with considerable stead
mess at Maud's well-formed features.
She wasn't at all bad looking, and he
had heard that she was rattllhg
good stenographer. Then she asked
him If he could help her get job. 1t
was apparently his cue. The fates had
sent it. ~ .#.$1 ,+$ s5,
II know there are jobs enough" he
said. .'In fact, have job In mind.
1t pays pretty well, but-well, that Is,
the pay wouldn't be of the sltghtess
Importance. OF course, you under
stand that-and, and you would know
that I had long been, been-you know,
Maud, we used to be mighty good pals
in school, didn't we?"
The car was rumbling noisily, and
perhaps Maud did not hear all of Brad
ford's incoherent remarks. At any
rate, she evinced no concern for his
sanity, but when they left she told him
cheerfully that when he got ready to
explain she would be glad to hear.
She was staying in the room of a
friend who had gone away for the
week end and would want to see him
sometime the next day, Monday and
would also be glad to have him finc
a room for her.
"Yes, indeed" stammered Bradford.
Bradford stopped for dinner on MS
way to his apartment and at nine
O'Clock when he arrived there he found
a very weary Molly Drew waiting for
him in the small reception room down
stairs.
"I've come" she said with finality.
II thought it over and over and when
it occurred to me that probably If you
didn't persuade me to be your secre-
tary, you'd persuade some good ste
nographer to be your wife. l just
couldn't go through the strain OF a
regular wedding.
"And so-here I am. have been
studying stenography this winter,
didn't tell you, but really wanteds to
do some sort of war work. It was
just because I was peeved because
you'd never asked me before that
said what did"
BY dint of much persuasion Brad
ford found accommodations for Molly
for the night in the little hotel, and
the next afternoon after his days work
at the office was over he took unto
himself the bride of his heart and ac-
quired q stenOgrapher.
Molly never knew that at nine tina
Monday morning he met Maud CASTOR
and told her what he felt was the best
advice he could give her. He saic
that she would never cease regretting
having left her uncle, that the war
would soon be over and then inflated
salaries in Hilton would be thing OF
the past, and that she would be
very sweet, sensible girl If she hurried
back to the home town on the next
train.
Whereupon Maud sighed with relief.
II was afraid you'd found job for
me-" she said, land I'm homesfck al
ready. Suppose you never tell any one
about meeting me-"
SAnd having exacted similar prom
ise from Maud, Bradford hurried on
his way. -

Yes, the Coin Had Come Up Tails

living room. But male stenographers
were simply not to be had. ,-=
There was still the idea Of sharing
the apartment left, and simply because
it was the only possible solution Brad
ley decided he would have to marry his
stenographer and share his quarters
with her or make a stenograQher OF
q wife. He had come home to decide
the best method of procedure. He
drew q coin from his pocket and then
tipped it and leaned over to see how
fate had decided for him..
He had settled that If it came up
heads he would ask Molly Drew in bis
home; town to consider the proposition.
She wasn't q stenographer, but she had
learned to type in school and she could
take care of his correspondence.
He flattered himself that the idea Of
becoming Mrs. Blake might not be en-
tirely distasteful to her. The coin
came up tails. That meant that he
should, make his selection according to
the ability of the young woman as a
secretary, and then, somehow, throw in
the marrying idea. Yes, the coin had
come up tails; but after Bradley had
pocketed it again he decided to ask
Molly Drew, anyway. t'.
That is why he took the eleven
O'Clock train back to the home town
and by nine o'clock the next morning
had telephoned to Molly to tell her that
he had something important to say to
her. By ten he was at the Drew house.
Then he and Molly started walking in
the autumn air.. = .-. ..-s- ~.
It was very difficult to say what he
had to say in tactful way, and per
hans he bungled it. At any rate, ten
minutes after he had begun with.
..Molly, have something important to
osk you,' he realized that he was walk
ing beside a rather irate young ;wom-
an. who kept her face turned from
him and he was making silent vows to
himself that after that he would obey
the dictates of flippeds coin.
"You never thought of asking me be-
fore" he remembered that she had
said. "Now that I can be Of use to
you, now that can earn my own living
and help you besides, you ask me-"
Bradford took the afterpoon train
hack to Hilton, and, on the train. ut
first tried to dodge snd then rather
xelconed the society Of Maud CASTOR,

Fighting Then and Now

From LeslieS
 No word will ever be uttered in depre- citation of the bravery of the American officers who fought in France Neither can a comparison of American officer losses in the final drives do other than accentuate the fearful hazards taken. With the commanding generals, however. modern warfare offers a contrast on the side of personal safety During the, civil war more major generals were killed in a single five-hour engagement at Frank lin Tenn. than in the whole world war. The fourteen general field officers, who fell at Franklin were leading their mel in person. This phase of earlier battles has passed The telephone and the wire less have rendered it possible for the commanding officers to direct operations even better from points of safety than at the front, while the introduction of the airplane would make the directing officer at the front an easy target for the enemy. Had the modern agencies been available during the civil war, battles would have been fought along the same lines as to- day. Where the fighting in Franco was in the open, there has been small differ ence. There will be thousands of tales
 of personal heroismg and disregard or >danger on the part of American officers yet to be told equalling anything that took place in the CO.'S, when Americans fought against one another instead of side by side. Nevertheless the death dealing weapons of modern times mean an indescrbable toll of life among the privates, far surpassing the earlier rec 1 ords, which is enough to rally the think l ing to the support of a league of nations, | or any other plan that will put an end to war as a means of adjusting disputes
 between nations.
