I' nr R'aistcouts.—Fun' waistcoats are to be seen in some of the win- ter coat suits, and tlhey'are decid- edly attractive. Sometimes they are found in long coats, with flar- ing' ,sections set on at the hips. Sometimes they are put into short jackets, of which, 'by .the way, there are a rather surprisingly large num' per,' in view of 'earlier predicti.m's that al's; coats would be short Brown and Navy—Seldom before has there been such a long reign of one color as there has been of navy blue, For several seasons it has been increasingly worn. And ib still stands supreme among colors for street wear. Brown, as every- one knows, is another favored color this year. In an effort to tally up these two feats, the dressmakers have oombined the two colors. An odd combination it seehns at first. But a frock of blue satin, with a brown veilve•t bodice, is decidedly interesting, Full Tucked Net.—Among the full skirts, those of tucked net are per- haps the' most attractive, They are positively `.'pretty," a quality lack- ing in many of the season's frocks. Sometimes tucks of chiffon are ap- 'plied to a full net "skirt, mounted over a satin foundation. Some- times tuiks of chiffon are applied to a full net skirt, mounted over a satin foundation. Sometimes the net or'tulle itself is tucked, in even tucks or in graduated ones, the wider ones at the •bottom, the sma•il- er ones at the top. Buttons.—Buttons are in great demand. Dressmakers use them .for trimming in a thousand different ways, There are fur buttons o.n cloth coats. There are self -colored buttons on suits and coats. There are jet and steel and enamel but- tons. There are fancy sills and vel- vet buttons. Belts.—In spite of the fact that the waistline has dropped inany inches belts are still used to empha- size the waistline. The belt at the hips is usually wider than•the belt at the waist used to be, but it is still a regulation belt. On many frocks and coats the belts are of the material, stitched, trimmed with self -covered buttons, and buttoned shm•t. Sometimes these wide belts are held in place by straps of the material, sometimes they are stitch- ed into position. Braid Bindings.—Some very ef- fective suits are worn from time to time wibh bindings of wide silk braid. When these ;braid -bound suits .first appeared they gave one the impression that they would quickly become popular. They are not widely worn, however, and are still very distinctive. Perhaps this is because they have not been much developed in inexpensive suits. One that is especially good in style is made of brown Cloth, with a flaring tunic, crossed in front, bound with darker brown 'braid, a, narrow foundation skies bound wibh the hsaid and a long coat with flaring cutaway skirts also bound an all edges with the braid. Velvet and 101 Belts.—Some smart new 'belts are made of velvet and kid, The belts are about four inches wide, with. a strip of velvet edged wibh a half-inch band of white kid. The velvet is deep gold- en yellow, king's, blue or crimson. The buckle is covered with white kid and is a 'bag, oblong one. Checks and Stripes. — Ohecked and striped velvets are striking. One smant little fa'oak shows a full, gathered skirt of black and white striped velvet with a short, fitted little jacked of ,biack velvet. An- other frock shows a skirt of cheeks and a jaokeit of plain velvet brown. Still another frock of velvet has col - ler and cuffs of (-hecks. ' •I• With a Grain of Salt. The war has given rise to all sorts of .sane ttional eitatementa and predictions. One writer, whose book has had a large sale in Eng- land and America, has said, for ex- ample, that the German general' staff plans to launch Zeppelin air- ships filled wibh a gas fifteen times lighter than hydrogen, and made of a metal that, although as rigid es steel, is three Mimes lighter than aluminum. In a letter to the Times, Sir William Ramsay points out the absurdity of this rbatement. Fd•11ing an airship with a gee of ne weight at all, if;suelh a gas existed, wo11c1 not help much. A balloon owes its buoyancy to hydrogen, a gas 14% times as light as air. If the gas had no weight at all, .the buoyant power would be increased very little. As for a Instalonly one-third as heavy Be alttmiiluin, chemisits would agree' pat the enlisting of any mien metal se in the highest, degree imp.obable, •thelearo excellent reasons for be- lieving that no light metal remains to. the rliunni"tirfft,, 4^Rin when Tur- key declared War on Russia and England, the writer referred to pre- rl'ietr,l in the New York press that Lilo first move of Turkey would be to blow up the leeks in the Suez Canal, As a matter of feet, the Suez Canal has no lacks, 3e The anon wile 'butts in neve, lmalf•es muck headway, PALE AND SICKLY BOSS AND GIRLS Need All the Strenglrll That Good Red Blood Can Give Youth is the timelay to the foun- dation for health. Every boy and girl should have plenty of pure, red blood .and strong nerves. With thin, impure blood they start life with a handicap too great to win success and happiness. Pure, red blood moans healthful growth, strong nerves, a Blear blain and a good. digestion, In a word, pure blood is the foundation of health. The signs of thin, impure blood are many and unmistakable. The pale, irritable boy or girl, who has no appetite or ambition, is always tired out, melancholy, short of breath, and who does not grow strong, is the victim of anaemia, or bloodlessness—the greatest enemy of youth. • There ie just one thing to do for these boys and girls—build up the blood with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. You can't afford to experiment with other remedies for there must be no guesswork in the treatment of anaemia. Through neglect or wrong treatment anae- mia gradually develops into the per- nicious form which is practically in- curable. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills work directly on the blood, giving it just the elements which it lacks. In this way these Pills build up every organ and nerve in the body, thus developing strong, rugged boys and girls. Miss Anna Loseke, Grand Forks, B4O., says: "1 think that before taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I was- one of the most miserable girls alive. I was hardly ever free from awful headaches, was as pale es a ghost, and could not go upstairs without stopping it, west. Now since taking the Pills the head- aches have gone, my appetite is good and I ani equal to almost any exertion, and you may be sure I will always recommend Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills."

Shells Fly Overhead by Day, and Alarms and Thlle Fire by Night. The so-called Battle Of the Aisne was a siege rather than a battle. For weeks the soldiers 'of both armies lived in the cleverly con- structed trenches they had dug among the hills and stone quarries. Here is a graphic .picture of the life they led there, taken from an Eng- lish officer's letter in the London Times: Ten days ago we had arrived within sound of the firing, and were about • to take our places in the trenches. Thatnight we marched seven miles through the mud over roads that had been soaked by four days' rain and torn by ceaseless traffic. The sound of guns and rifles grew louder as we approach- ed the front, and dead horses mark- ed the passage of the armies. We crossed the river Aisne, and halt- ed near the village beneath the heights. , . . The brigade split into regiments, and ours went . off up the hill, slippery with mud, to the trenches. We relieved a company of Irishman almost incoherent in their speech from ;their long ordeal, who had begun with the retreat from Mons, and had been fighting without ceasing ever since. Many had been killed, but with their weakened numbers they had taken these heights, and clung to them un- til our arrival. We posted sentries, and the com- pany took up its allotted line, find- ing cover ,behind the embankment of a quarry. The next day food ar- rived; we cooked our tinned beef and boiled tea, cleaned our rifles, and begifn to ,feel more at home. Then we titarbed to dig. No one knew how long we should etas, but the cover was bad) and gave no proteobion from the enelny'.s guns. And this we learned to our Dost, for soon we had our first lesson about shrapnel. Our own artillery open- ed fire, and the simile .passed over our heads into the enemy's linea. Then they replied, first at our guns and then et our trenches. Bang! Smash I and a shower of pellets and earth, that was all. A horrid, .un- pleasant sound, typical of destree- tiop, Yet, if men will remain under cover, no harm can ,befall. But they went. Nothing on earth will pre- vent the Britisholdier from light- ing a' fire to cook his tea, or from. going round to borrow a light for his cigarette. Then ibhe shrapnel catches him. It is not bravery or any other virtue. It is just his cheerful habit, Some men must go out, of course, on duty, and so there have been the casualties that you see in the papers, But with care, these losses should be slight while we remain in the trenches. And Ewe begin to thunk we shall be there fersver, • Ten days I Aeroplanes watching us, and 'shells flying overhead by day, alarms and rifle fire by night. We live the life of e rebbiir-digging ourselves deeper and deeper foto the earth, until we are completely sheltered .from above, coming • eat now and then, wheii things ere quiet, to gook and eat, makieg any moves that may be necessary under cover of darkness. Ammunition, food and drinking water aro brought in by night; the wounded are sent away to the hospital. We do not wash, we du not change our clothes; we sleep at odd intervals whenever we can get the chance, and dally we get more accustomed. to our lot. Little holes are dug be- neath the parapet just big enough to sit in are our homes, with straw and perhaps a Sauk or two for warmth. The cold is intense et night, and those good ladies who have made us woollen caps and earn - Garters have earned our thanks. The coldest moments are those when there is an alarm of a night attack, and we spring from our the parapet, peering over the wall to see our enemies, and firing at the flashes of their rifles •f• IMAM LINE OF ILEROES. Their Achievement Hos Never Been Equalled. • An officer in the Army Service Corps writes :— You know, reading the home pa- pers—I could almost wish that a horde of these gentry cauld descend on old England's shores. l don't think anything but -that will ever arouse; them to the awfulness of the thing that the thin (very, very thin in some pieces) khaki line in the tre:nehes out here is fighting hard to keep from them ; and that very thin line is doing each day something that has never been equalled even by th.e thin red line of bygone drays. I am not patting myself on the back, for my work lies behind the trenches, and I take off my hat to every mother's son that is there. I should have thought that the recruits to the new Army would have exceeded the second million by now, and yet they don't seem to have got the first ooan- pleted yet. If they could only take the youth of England on a person ally -conducted tout along our limes here se that they could realize what we are up against, I think they'd' join in a body; bat, failing that, the best way to buck them up would be a• hundred thousand Germans landing in Engiand. I don't sup- pose they'd get very far, still they would bring home to the smug arm- chair brigade as nothing else ever will something at least of the awful way in which Belgium and part of France has suffered. Those who are out here ,are doing miracles. . . , In the meantime, how- ever confident one ns,ay be of the result, we are still a long way off that salvation, and the present bat- tle is still raging backwards and forwards as fiercely as ever. As you said in ,your other letter, the old Scottish have done splendidly,. and I am afraid, have lost rather heavily, but there isn't one regi- ment in the firing line that is doing better than one another; they are all doing their best, and a splendid best, too. DOMINION ATLANTIC R. R. Great Improvenments Rave Been Made oil It by the C.P.R. The record of improvements ef- fected on the Dominion Atlantic Railway, which the Canadian Paci- fic Railway leased in 1911 for 99 years shows that new wharves have been built; 45 miles of new track have been ballasted; 30 miles of new 85 -pound rails have been laid down; 120 cattle -guards have been filled and replaced by surface guards, while dozens of bridges have been either improved or re- built. In round figures, 6,000 feet of wooden bridges' have been re- placed, or will be replaced very shortly, by abed- bridges, concrete ardhes, and rail top culyerts. New brick citations have been built; a general renovation has taken place, costing many thousands of dollars. The new stations ;include those at Wolfville and Annapolis Royal, Mo- sherville, Patterson and Iberville. During the past two years 35 stas. tions have beep repaired and paint- ed, and platforms have been erect- ed. A new line from Centreville to Weston, 14 miles; in extent, has been built in the must substantial man- ner. Both permanent work and the lighter things which needed atten- tion ]lave' beep carried out; and to- day the old Domiihiion Atlantic looks spick and span leaks es if it had taken on a new lease of life. .g, Sea Doge of Many Years. Lord Fisher, who is only seventy- three, break no age records in re- turning .to active service. In the earlier half of last century, when there was no regular systei<ln, of re- tirement in the British navy, miany captains well over that age were still anxiously waiting Lor promo- tion. In 1840 every captain on the list had hell post rank once Trafal- gar, Admiral Bowles took up anis Devonport 'commend in his eightieth year.

A commander whose reputation for discipline has made him almost as much. feared as he is admired, Lard Fisher's devotion to duty is such that he will brook no shirking from any man under him, and woe betide the unfortunate officer or handy man who dares to question his authority. A certain captain once sent word that it wee impas- sible to get his ship to such -and - seen a place ' • on a given day. "Um•plh I" replied Lard Fisher ; "tell Captain — that if he is not ready to leave K. on the day named, I will have him towed there." Another story illustrative of Lord Fisher's determination to get what he wants refers to an occasion when he conceived the idea of putting up a wireless installation on the cu- pola of the Admiralty at Whitehall. For some reason, however, the Post Office refused permission. One day, therefore, half a dozen sea- men swarmed up the cupola and ran up the "wireless" in the face • of outraged authority. "How is this?" asked the Post Office; "by whose authority?' "Oh," said Lord Fish- er, "it is only run up tentatively to see how it will work in case permis- sion is given." And there it re- mained. A typical sea -dog, bluff and hearty, Lard Fisher has praotioally reorganized our nevy. He is a self- made man in the sense that he owes nothing to birth, social influence, or wealth, in a service in which all three counted for much when he first entered the navy, and the .story of that entry is typical of the man. At the age of thirteen he scrambled aboard the admir'al's ship at Plymouth, marehe•d up to a splendid figure in 'blue and gold, and, handing him a letter, said, "Here, my man, give this to the admiral." The mean in' blue and gold smiled, took the letter, and opened it. "Are you the admiral?" said the boy. "Yes, I'm the admiral." He read the letter and, patting the boy on the head, said, "You must stop and take dinner with me." "I thiink," said the boy, "I should like to be getting an to any ship," speaking as though the British navy had fallen to his charge. The admiral laughed and took him down to. dinner. Like Kitchener, Lord Fisher's motto has always been. "Deeds, Not Words," and it is a remarkable fact that for many years the ships he commanded always had the mot - do "Silence—Deeds, not Words'," displayed in a prominent position tor' the edification. of the officers. It was at an Academy banquet some yews' ago that Lord Fisher told how he found another motto. Where coeainiander-in-chief in the Mediterranean, he one day went to ingest a mall destroyer, only 260 tens, "but soca' wee her peddle Land er," said Sir Sohn, "that she mieg t have been 16,000.

A.'; Lord Fisher used a phrase which is particularly appropriate at the mo- ment. "No soldier of ours cam go anywhere," he said, "unless a sail- or carries him on his back." It was a phrase which brought down the house, but the cheers were partially due to th.e fact that Lord Fisher, in the whirl of his excitement, emptied a decanter of claret over the shirt front of Lord Midl:eton, who was then Secretary for War, and who was sitting next to him. e• RUSSIA'S AIRSHIPS. Sikorsky Biplanes Are Able to Car- ry Twenty Passengers. A good deal has been heard con- cerning the British and German aeroplanes, but the great Sikorsky biplanes used by the troops of the Czar have been overlooked. These machines, invented by "a famous Russian named Sikorsky, are by far the biggest aeroplanes being flown in the war in fact, they are the largest in the world. They stand 16 feet high and are about 100 feet wide. The Sikorsky can carry almost es many passengers as a Zeppelin air- ship. Twenty men can be accom- modated in the large passenger ca- bin, which is constructed of metal and contains numerous windows. In this machine three engines are fitted, willich give a total of nearly 1,000 horsepower, for, owing to the Sikorsky biplane weighing in itself one and a half tons, and having so large a crew to carry, it demands high power to pull it off the ground and keep it in the air. The weight of the machine has necessitated an elaborate landing chassis composed of numerous springs and pneumatic tubes, so that the huge biplane can alight safely on rough ground at a speed of sixty anises an 'hour.

One of the things frequently noted by solders at the front in writing to relatives and friends is t+bs extraordinary expenditure of bullets required to kill a man. A German report states 'that many German soldiers fired 4,000 cart ridgeea apiece during the first month of the war. An English observer estimated that 25 German shelle are wasted for every man killed by them. In 1870 it was calculated that the German's fired 150 bullets and six shrapnelshells for every wound- ed Frenchman. In the Russo-Japa- nese War it is said 3,000 bullets were fired for every life lost. -It, racan re of, I Highest grade beano kelt whole and mealy by perfect ,`bakis , retainingtheir full strep• , >� Flavored with delicious Winces; Ty bumf no eau&."
