Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

October 81, 1862.-Gen. Mcclellan
today removed his headquarters to the
Virginia side of the Potomac River,
precisely where it may not be proper
now to say.
In the last 48 hours nearly $500
soldiers have arrived in Washington to
swell the Union Army, and still they
are coming. These latest arrivals in
clude $50 recruits for Ohio regiments,
$50 for New York regiments, 1T for
Pennsylvania regiments 400 for Rhode
Island regiments and SIS for the Sd
United States Infantry. The following
regiments have also arrived: The 14th
Vermont, Col. Nichols, 954 men; 18th
Vermont, Col. Proctor, 946 men; 152d
New York, Col. Boyer, $40 men; 1920
New York, Col. Benedict, 727 men, and
the 26th Maine, Col. Hubbard. 919
men.
These new regiments were supplied
with arms here today. They are made
up of fine, robust-appearing men who
look as if they would give good ac-
count of themselves in fight.
Mr. w. c.. Burney, who has been a
prisoner in the famous Libbey Prison at
Richmond. arrived in Washington to-
cay, having been discharged four
days ago.
John S. Sturgis, who has been rep
resenting himself as a British lieuten-
ant. has been arrested as a suspected
Confederate spy in this City. He was
watched for several days and something
about this alleged British officers ap-
pearance, speech and actions aroused a
suspicion in the minds of the Union
military authorities that he was travel
ing under title that did not belong to
him. Finally he came into contact with
Maj Doster, the provost marshal, who
had him arrested by Patrolman Frazier
of the fourth ward, who took him to the
station, where he was duly registered
Then he was transported under guard
for examination by the military author
tiles.
The provost marshal has ordered
that all officers in the City of Wash
ington exercise the utmost care to dis
cover and arrest persons of either sex
who may be serving as spies for the
Confederate government.
1t is known that much information
of military nature reaches the Con-
federates from the city. Although many
spies have been detected or arrested on
suspicion, it is believed that others are
still operating.

Falling Hair After Fever.
Dear Miss Leeds: Last May had
scarlet fever and in August my hair
started to fall out. Several people
have told me to shave it, but do not
want to. Will you give me some treat
ment that will make my hair thick and
healthy? I am l3 years old and 5
feet 5 inches tall. B. M S.
AnSwer-It is usual to shave the
head at the time of severe fever, but
in your case think close bob would
do, in addition to regular scalp treat
mentS. Do not worry about the loss Of
hair, as it is only the dead hairs that
come out and new ones will grow in
their places. Here is a good scalp
tonic that you may apply after your
shampoo and twice week besides: One
ounce olive oil, drains cologne water.
ounces bay rum, l dram tincture of
cinchona. After parting the hair apply
this with medicine dropper directly
to the scalp. Massage the scalp thor
oughly every night and brush and
comb your hair well every day. Build
up your general health. The average
weight for your age and height is 1l9
pounds. LOIS LEEDS.
Sitting VS.. Standing.
Dear Miss Leeds: ID My friend
thinks that sitting all day at her work
makes the hips spread and that stand
ing makes calves and ankles enlarged.
Is this so? (2) am II years old
feet 512 inches tall and weigh 100
pounds. My measurements are: Ankle,
81A; calf, ID; thigh, 20; hips, So; bust,
30; waist, 26. I have brown hair, blue
eyes and medium skin. What colorS
may I wear? Are my measurements
good? 80 How can make thick lips
seem smaller and can I get rid of
blackheads? SUE LOVE.
Answer-O She is right. She may
take exercise to reduce her hips. If
she has to stand she should wear COM
Portable shoes with low heels and arch
supports. Standing for long periods
causes varicose veins. It would be bet
ter to have position where one might
sit part Of the time and stand or walk
other times. (2) You should weigh
between l24 and 127 pounds. Your
measurements are good except your
bust, which is rather small. You NAV

less Coat Has Definite Place
BY MARY MARSHALL.

some time been more popular in France
than in this country.
And only the optimistic would have
felt certain that so many of the
women who have adopted it would wear
i with such distinction and chic. APP
parently the simplest sort of ensemble,
it requires a sure sense of dress to
wear 1t we'll. Shoes and stockings must
be chosen with such careful regard to
the cut and color of the little suit
The skirt must be of precisely the right
length, for even half inch one way
or the other may spoil the effect And
the skirt must fit with just that scant-
ness to keep it from being dowdy and
just that looseness to keep it from
drawing in the least. Gloves, hat
blouse, handbag must all be simple and
yet faultless of their sort. And with
this two-piece suit goes the fox scarf
as unQueStionably as mint sauce goes
with roast lamb or cranberrieS with
turkey.
With cooler weather these light little
suits will be put aside in most climates
for heavier, longer coats and frocks-
but lust as surely the two-piece suit
and fox scarf Will be revived for Spring.
And so it occurs to me that for the
woman who cannot afford to buy a
good fox scarf and Winter coat trim
med with fur of a good quality a very
excellent plan is to buy substantial
Winter coat without fur.
Have you ever tried to do a furrier's
lob at home and has it ever occurred
to you that sewing on fur wasn't so
simple a matter as you had supposed?
If you have or if you are thinking of
remodeling any of your old fur gar
ments or using any fur trimming on
your homemade frockS or wraps you
will find this weeks circular useful. 1t
tells how to take the necessary stitches
in the fur and how to apply it to the
material of frock or coat. If you would
like this illustrated little circular, please

Here country people, white and col

zinnias and dahlias, their apples and
their pink skinned potatoes, their fat

Benefic signs will dominate in to-

ogy. which finds all the planetary in
fluences helpful
The clergy will be well directed and
should make the most of this sway,
which is believed to impart convincing
power and sincerity.
1t is a rule under which to call men
and women to their broadest response
bilities and to remind them of their
duty to one another.
The planetary government is favor
able for appeals for charitable or phi
lanthropic projects and is supposed to
impart sympathy.
Under this direction of the stars, the
mind should easily eliminate prejudice
and may be quick to accept changed
views on life.
1t is day favorable for making
good opinion regarding men and their
public policies.
1t is a lucky day for visiting relatives
and friends whose good opinion may
have a material significance. Maiden
aunts and influential politicians may be
cultivated successfully while the sun
is in kindly aspect.

Ninety-nine per cent of the public

they read in the papers," Every day
business goes on in the local Police
Court where all sorts of unfortunates
are brought before the bar for judg-
ment, most of which is kindly. Inebri-
ates petty violators and hosts of other
folks appear like actors on a stage, and
after a fashion they are. Some are
first offenders, while others are hard
ened and inexperienced evildoers. Not
all, of course, are guilty.
The discretion of the court saves
many from the humiliation of incar-
ceration in JAIL For example, young
fellow was arrested for baCkfiring his
automobile motor He was a cIean-cuU
youth who had never before been IN
trouble. The judge gazed down upon
him sympathetically and asked why he
had permitted his machine to back
fire.
Il just wanted to hear the noise. {"
said the chap.
IL was an honest answer and he was
fined So ard released.
The next may be a couple of neigh
bors who attempted to decide an argu-
ment with fists or clubs. They glare at
each other from widely separated seats.
Each side is heard and a decision is
rendered by the man on the bench.
Humor and pathos follow in rapid
succession. One day colored man was
brought to the office of the late Judge
Macdonald. He twisted torn cap in
his hands and was obviously uneasy.
The judge listened patiently to the
complaint and then said, big boy, have
