A pretty feature of the trim- ming is the bib front. ---- ee Re A different type of one-piece frock is this model of submarine blue cloth, with vest, cuffs and girdle of plaid silk. There Is a shoulder yoke, and the col- lar is sacrificed to dainty ruffles of lace which outline the neck. Either a turn- down or high collar may be used, how- ever. There are many inexpensive ma- terials in which this mode! may be re- produced; in average size it requires 3% yards 54-inch cloth, with 1 yard 36-inch silk for the trimming. At least five sections of the pattern musi laid on the lengthwise fold of the g s to be cut properly, the pur- pose being to avold seams and gain a graceful line for the dress. The front gore, collar, back and front are the parts so arranged. A sixth section is the trimming piece, in case it is used. Opposite the front gore, along the selvage edge, is placed the belt. To the 'right of this comes the back gore, one edge of which rests on the lengthwise fold and the other along the selvage. The section is placed on a lengthwise thread of material, however. The sleeve, cuff and side front come next, all on a lengthwise thread After the sections are pinnea carefully into place cut out and put aside until ready for use. If the square neck is to be used it will be necessary to cut off the upper edge of the front on double small "o" perforations, Similar perforations are provided for shortening the slecves and skirt In colorings one-piece frocks usually affect the simple shades which yet have plenty of depth and richness about them.

"We left Nish two days after the Government had departed," said one. 'At the railway station there was a great crowd of fugitives who came from Pirot and Knlasevatz. When the train arrived, a scene of indescribable panic was witnessed. The crowd took the station by storm and made a dash to obtain places on the train Somg traveled on the * roofs of carriages and others in open trucks. Those who could not find places in the train started on foot for Pristina, . The roads were block- ed with fugitives whose sufferings in- creased hour by hour." Owing to the truce of last Summer between Serbia .and Austria, after the overwhelming Wintar defeat of the latter, many Serbian soldiers were spared to attend to the fields Consequently there were good crops especially in the Morava Valley. In the Pozarevetz and Shadatz regions there were vast quantities of grain when the new offensive started and all these hard won stocks fell into the enemy's hands, being sent away to Austria and Germany. The Ser- bian authorities are now faced with a serious problem of feeding the civi lian population and the army. 4 SFR MAX Will be given some command nection with the Canadian forces as soon asx he gualifies land for military duties. KITCHENER'S PROPHECY Will Prove Right, Says Frederick Palmer. New York, Nov. 13.--"The Ger- mans on the western front are not fighting as well as they did six months ago. British artillery is now firing more shells than that of the Germans. "Before I left France I visited the Champagne battlefield, where the French might have broken through the German line but for heavy rains on the second day of the battle." This was the statement made here by Frederick Palmer, American war correspondent, whose recent des- patches from the British front have been important as well as interest- ing. "Great Britain has plenty of men now who are ready, waiting to be sent to the front. She can send 750,- 000 trained troops to the Near East immediately without interfering with the army on the western front, if they can be transported and sup- plied with munitions. "Lord Kitchener has finished his work, and has now gone to the Bal- kans to see what he can do there in the way of helping in the-fighting. The British army has had a hard time in getting together, because everything had to be prepared. Lord Kitchener said at the beginning that it would take a year to get ready, an- other one to shake the enemy up ant the third year they would have them on the run, and I believe that. he will prove to be right."

Not the least arduous task which confronts those transport of Australian and Canadian troops is th. conveyance of horses. Sometimes as many as seven or eight hundred horses are stowed away on one ship. The "stowed away" is no figure of speech, for on a transport there are horses everywhere--on Jeck, underneath the deck, in every nook and corner where it is possible, or seemingly im- possible, for an animal to be put. On making an inspection of a ship which has been:fitted for the convey- ance of horses, one would at first They think it impossible that the animals | colild ever be got on board, or that they would survive under such con- | ditions, for the voyage. Each borse is placed in a narrow stall, exactly 2 ft. 5 in. wide, and separated from ; his neighbour on either side by twe narrow top and battom slip rails. The animal can pever lie down during the voyage, and is prevented from mov- ing backward by the back of the stall | and forward by a piece of timber breast high, upon which his portable manger of wood is hooked. The animal stands on a movable wooden floor, which gan be lifted out for cleaning purposes, leaving the iron deck underneath. The embarka- tion of the animals is am arduous task. They have to be led, coaxed and 'pushed by main force up the steep and narrow gangway, and down another until they reach the places allotted to them. The main difficulty is to get the animals to go up the | gangway, but, strangely enough, once a horse gets its four feet on it he is content to move right on, There are some horses, however, which cannot be persuaded to go up the gangway, and these are first blindfolded and pushed by main force into a wooden cage, and hoisted on beard by a steam winch, generally marking their displeasure by kicking fu The horses are watered four times a day and fed three times. Feeding: is announced by trumpet calls, and the animals soon get to know the call, announcing their readiness for meals by loud stamping, whinnying, and stretching their . heads out of their stalls, reminding one of the ex- citement shown by the wild animals at the Zoo at feeding-time. Whenever possible, ten minutes' walking exercise is given each animal every day. For the first few days of the voyage the work of exercising proceeds very slowly and is very diffi- cult, but when accustomed to his novel surroundings the horse soon comes to know what is expected of him, and will then scramble like a cat over all kinds of obstacles. Archbishop Bruchesi's Appeal. Ottawa Citizen Cynical and audacious dishonesty in public positions has drawn forth & strong rebuke from Archbishop Bruchesi, of Montreal, in a pastoral letter read in the churches of his dio- cese on Sunday. Yet there are news- papers, ostensibly published in the public interest, which maintain in season and out that any evidences of dishonesty and mal-administration at this time are to be disregarded as minor matters when the huge amount of money being administered is con- sidered. Honesty with such apologists is re- lative, not absolute. Neverthel such sophistry does not blind honest citizens to the increasing lack of con- science manifested in public affairs. The country is undergoing a phase of war-time experience that has char- acterized most, if not all, the great wars of the past--the development of a vicious circle 6f soulless indivi duals, in a position more or less to influence the administration, whose whole object is the securing of con- tracts at exorbitant figures to the ex- clusion of the market available for the cheaper manufacture of war and other supplies. f The people of Canada are being aroused, however; Every sign points to the awakening of the pub- lic conscience and the Dominion should hold to strict accountability those whose manipulations have dis: graced the country im this crisis of her imperial connection. This deter- mination is one that should be main- tained by every citigen jealous of the future of Canada.

The thousands who bave laughed over his witty sayings and stories will genuinely regret the death of Mr. Walter Emanuel, who for a number of years regularly supplied a page of bantering humor to "Punch." Here i are a few examples of his fun. Just after the publication of one | of his animal books called "A Dog's Day," a friend meeting him one day {| congratulated him warmly on his | work "Al, Mr. Emanuel. Al," he "said. "And K9-2,"" replied Mr. Eman- { uel, quietly. _He was fond of telling how he was | once badly insulted by a dog. "I was admiring my garden," he said, "when suddenly I saw a strange dog enter, | dook round, and then walk up to one of my leading blades of grass and coolly eat it. My anger, I think, was excusable, for it was a fine sturdy blade, well over a couple of inches high, and I bad. been much compli- mented on it. The garden, indeed, has never looked the same since! Another dog story concerned a vement artist who drew a milking | see. 'But, my good fellow," said { Mr. Emanuel, gazing at the scene, 'that 48 not a it like milk." 'No, it ain't," was the answer. "I did one like the real thing once. It took me close on two hours, and then a beast- ly dog came and licked it up." In his "Answers to Correspon- dents," "House Dog" was informed | that any chemist would make up a mouth-wash to.remove the unpleas- ant taste of burglars, while '"'Apx- ious' was told there was nothing de- grading in living in a kennel, as King Edward and Queen Alexandra did so. In the advertisement, for instance, it was stated 'regularly used in the kennels of the King and Queen." Mr. Emanuel was the inventor of the comic telegrams from people who were unavoidably prevented from at- tending this or that public function. Here is one which he read out at a dinner, and which was supposed to be sent by the Kaiser. '"Have not been invited, but cannot resist temptation to send telegram. Much gratified at my son's loyal reception in India, He hopes shortly to visit other porcions of his future empire." From which sly hit it may be gathered that Mr. Emanuel knew the Kaiser, whom he once wrote "deserved a Punch in the eye" better than a good many other people. One of his smartest hits at the Kaiser was contained in another mock telegram from Big Bill: "I like your Christmas pudding, but I don't like your mean spies." "Both men and women have sprung from monkeys, but the women have sprung farther," was one of his most quoted sayings, while referring to pets in his book "Bubble and Squeak," he said: "Sufferers from neuralgia require special considera- tion in the matter of pets, To these 1 would, recommend silkworms, whose language is unexceptionable, except when you have to take the lettuce from them for the salad: or butterflies, whose bark, even when they are angry, is scarcely audible." Brown's Case. A man was going through a Hospi- tal one day when he came across Brown, who was patched up here and pieced out there, and looking consid- erably like a veteran of an aviation corps. "Sorry to see you looking this, old man," remarked the visitor, paus- ©S5| jng before the chair in which Brown was recuperating. "What in the world ever happened to you?" "Wasn't watching my .feet," an- swered Brown, "and fell out of a sky- ro "You don't really mean it!" ex- claimed the visitor almost enthusias- tically. *"They say that when a man falls from a great height he thinks of all his sins before ' he hits the ground. Is that true?" "Well, no--that is, not in my case," thoughtfully rejoined Brown. "You see, I only fell five storeys." Pleasant for Him. There was only one man at the boarding house, and theré wasn't much of him. But the girls all made a fuss over him. After all, he was a man! One evening they had a dance, and our hero engaged himself to Miss A. for No. 1. Miss A. didn't turn up, so he condescendingly suggested that Miss B. might take it on. Just as they commenced to dance Miss A. en- tered the room, and her eyes glittered "I'm afraid you're late, dearest," sald Miss B., with the air of a victor. But Miss A. tossed her head. "Yes, dear," she replied cuttingly; "another case of the early bird catch- ing the worm!" How to Quiet a Crylag Baby. Fits of erying, indicative of dis- comfort if not pain, in babies, usual- ly after meals, are quite naturally at- tributed almost universally to the food. It would be well, however, if attention were given to the clothes at the same time, if there are no other indications of the diet given disagreeing with the baby, for in very | many cases these are to blame.
