John Bright's notes for a speech were written on visiting card. Lord Asquith is the authority for this state ment. but 1t does not appear quite to harmonize with Bright's recorded prac- tice of using several half-sheets in the case of important speeches.

Baits for U-Boats,

Captain Campbell and his associ- ates of the British mystery ship Dun raven paid as much attention to de- tails in their ships as in their personal appearance. The ships wash did not expose the fdnhels that are affected by naval men, but the dungarees that are popular with merchant sailors. Sometimes side of beef would be hung out in plain view; this not only kept up the fiction that the ship was an innocent tramp, but 1t served as q tempting bait to the not too we'll fed crew of the submarine. Particularly tempting cargoes were occasionally put on deck. One of the ships carried sew eral papier-mache freight cars of the small European type, covered with legends which indicated that they were loaded with ammunition and bound for MesopOtamia. It is easy to imagine how eagerly the Hun would wish to sink that cargo.-Admiral Sims in the Worlds Work.

GOOD ROADS
ROAD W0RKs IS FACILITATED
Effect of Amendments Passed Last February Is Shown In Report
 of Secretary Houston.

Amendments to the federal aid road act passed last February have greatly facilitated the work of putting the country on a good roads basis. in the opinion of David F. Houston, secretary of agriculture. These amendments, In brief, increase from $10,000 10 $20,O00 per mile the amount of federal funds that may be expended by one road and considerably broaden the definition Of what constitutes rural post road. The act as 1t now stands, says Secretary Houston in his annual report, places only three limitations on the type of road which may be built, as fol- lows:
 "That the roads shall be 'substan- tial in character This means that tho road must be so constructed that 1t will carry the prospective traffic with such maintenance expenses that tho total annual charges will represent reasonable expenditure for the public service rendered by the highway. It Is to the interest of the states that the roads on which federal funds are used be substantially constructed, because the law requires them, or their civil subdivisions, as a prerequisite to re- ceiving further funds, to maintain properly all roads built with federal aid. There is nothing in the law which restricts types of construction between narrower limits than those established by sound finance and good engineering practice.
 That the amount contributed from the federal treasury is connected with any road shall not exceed 50 per cent of its cost or $20,000 mile. The main thing is to build road that will stand the traffic in the particular section of the country where 1t is constructed The conditions in certain regions may require a heavy, comparatively high cost type of road, while in others a lower cost type may meet all the re- quirements. Sentiment is growing throughout the country, even in the newer sections, in favor of more sub stantial roads.
 "That the road must be rural post road as defined in the act as amended: that Is, any public road major por- tion of which is now used, or can be

Mixinu Yarns.

By force of industrial circumstances an odd and interesting kind of inter nationalism appears In the report that Hongkong factories are knitting with a mixture of Japanese and American yarns. An estimate for the current year is that American yarns to the value of about one million gold dol lars will come into HoEgkong and go out again all over the far East in knitted articles, the bulk of them made of American yarns but consid- erable part of American and Japanese yarns mixed. People in North China. the Dutch East Indies, the Philippines, and in smaller number in South America and Europe will thus be go- ing about in what might be called "American-Japanes hosiery made in China"

 sure to be surprised, interested and tempted Surprise will follow the discovery of the very wide variety of styles there is to choose from. They prove very interesting to the woman who has not experimented with them she. has a chance to see herself in the trousers and coats of the women of the far East, Interpreted in silk, satin, georgette and chiffon, the trousers and Jackets of Turkey, the kimonos of Japan and coats of China, the long, graceful draperies of the Empire pc riod and styles from every quarter or the globe.
 As it happens the airiest and most delicate of sheer fabrics are less fra gile than they look. Crepe, georgette and wide net top lace are used for making many negligees, with the geor- gette in two plain colors and the lace in cream color. A pretty specimen of this particular style of negligee ap- pears in the picture above.
 Just as pretty as these colorful and sheer affairs are coats of taffeta in gay colors, more or less long, to be worn over lacy petticoats. They are trimmed with ruchings of ribbon or of frayed tatfeta. Very much the

TT IS a lucky thing for the Ameri-
 can public that the women whose intelligence raises them to the re- sponsibility of buying for the great de- partment stores and mail order houses are gifted in several directions. In- telligence in the selection of good styles Is necessary part of their equipment. They cultivate "sense of clothes" which is another way of describing the art of dressing ap- propriately-the fine art of dressing correctly. It is true that they must consider in their purchasing follow ing that will not buy their most taste ful merchandise. But when they make their display and match up their choice of clothes with that of other buyers, we may be fairly sure of see ing the best things that money will buy.
 The arbiters of fashion insist that the schoolgirl should be dressed as a Schoolgirl. That dress should occupy very small part of her time and at tention while she is in school. That her clothes should be simple and in- conspicuous, and that utility and neat ness are their important requisites. It

cHlvALRY NATURAL TO HIM
Brave Act of virginian Soldier in France Had Its Counterpart in
 Deed of General Lee.

It was not often that the soldier boy would talk at all of those days in France but one evening he had been telling his uncle and some of the lads who had dropped in of the rescue of Parade Rest.
 Parade Rest was the companys mascot, rather nondeseript dog, of no marked intelligence but devoted to and beloved by the boys, who had given him this sobriquet because of the position in which he always stood, with one foot turned out. One day at Chateau Thierry he had been left behind in dugout, but had followed the boys, and at a moment when there was lull in the advance, there, tempting target for the enemy, siIhou- cited against the glare, stood Parade Rest.
 Tt doesn't seem much to tell now" the soldier said, looking over the quiet little group on the home porch, thou sands of miles away from that battle field, "but it was some stunt. My puddle dashed out among the falling thrapnel and bursting shells and seized Parade Rest so quickly we couldn't tell how 1t was done."
 Where was your puddle fromT inquired one of the boys in the group.
 At the answer From Virginia" the soldier boys uncle smiled, a reminis- cent, experiencing smile.
 He was only repeating an act of one of the greatest of Virginians, my lads," the old man began, and then the little group remembered that here in their midst was veteran of that war of the Blue and the Gray.
 For one day, during the long siege of Petersburg, General Lee, in his effort to encourage his men, took up most dangerous position on the fro1t lines. But having been cautioned and later besought, he retired to the rear. Only few minutes later, however, seeing some fiedglings fall from their nest to the battlefield, he rode out Jumped from his horse, and restored them to safety. It was done very quickly but not so quickly but that the general, on his well-known gray horse, was visible to the enemy. But the enemy did not fire upon him in that act. ."-Christian Science Monitor.

goes without saying that they are at. tractive, for there is a charm about the simple schoolgirl clothes that be. longs to them alone,
 A fine example of schoolgirl styles for the coming spring is shown in the picture given here, in which cotton voile with colored satin stripe makes a delightful dress for a junior miss. It has a pretty bodice with shawl collar edged with narrow lace, a vestee of the voile, three-quarters length sleeves with turned back cuffs. The plain skirt is gathered into the bodice and short tunic is suggested in it by the simple means of a wide tuck set in on a slope A wide sash of the voile with bow and ends at the back finish up dress in which the young girl will look sweet when summer comes. These pretty cottons, simply made, have a freshness and youthful ness that belongs to nothing else. It is best to copy such dresses just as they are, for the things that make them so pleasing to women of the finest taste are subtle things. Accept them and do not presume to change them
