Pananias sport colorful bands, with fringed :bow end's, or reflect military eolors in stripes, for slipping around the crown upon occasion, r, College'oolors seem to have been dropped to recognize the more in- sistent demand for military motifs. Bows' and a bit of foliage make their debut decorating sailors and knock -about hats. Vegetable and fruit designs are popular. Colored leather, highly •glossed, made. into leaf and flower fauns kr flat ,applique decorations, vies with white kid or patent leather made ,foliage for ha trimmings. Ostrich feathers in ironed flatan¢1 starched effects are the smartness for dressy hat trimmings. Dyed i shaded colors which 'complenne rather than in one -tone effects, a the proper presentment for these. Lemon drop yellow is a new co o'rmaterial for taffetas. The colo the material and the mode of co billing it in panels with chiffo which exactly matches the silk wa introduced by Iv artial-Arwiand a dress showing an.unusually mad skirt which .accents the modes fo this year. The long-slepved boli shows a' high, tight -fitting collar 'and the sleeves were of chiffon. an designed with finger -tile reachin cuff flounces. Polonaise styles are sponsored b Worth, Premet and Paquin. Watc the development of this mode, .fo Jenny is the style maker for Paris and for this season is also favorin puffed overskirt designs. Late styles introduce circula skirts to. costumes of taffeta Or 0106 with godet fulness` emphasized a either side—allowing just a 1'ttl fulness, coinpar.atively speaking, a the front and back, thus aceentli acing the flared silhouette. Row of shirring, smocking OT a yoke to, provide the required flat appear :ince at the top. Man; dressmakers are designin puffed sleeve tops • for gowns fax both day ,and evening wear. Those for evening are of shee transparent materials and are no controlled •by bands. For day gowns these additional tops are po's- ed oven ea• full length undersleeve of the costume material. Inspiration would term them epaulet sleeves; in any event,. they area new de- velopment. Premet offers'a pink faille after- noon frock which exploits a new skirt trimming. This is termed a manuscript nem.' It looks like pink wood rolled eh.aving stitched to the under side of the skirt edge. This latter-day rejuvenation of an. old vogue intio'duoes one skirt ex- tender in the form of an insertion of featherbene placed' at the head- ing of the rather wide ribbon -trim- med lace flounce which trims the petticoat. These will be worn !beneath the new full skirts, which depend in a measure -upon, braiding' or corded puffs to extend their . fulnesses to the desired modish width. es n nt re 1- r, m- n s e r os d g y h r g r h e t s p g r t: Why Grass IS Green. Doubtless ,many have .wondered' why" the vegetation of the earth is mostly green. That le—not what makes it green, but why it is that color instead of blue or red or pur- ple. Moisture, it has been foundsewill' bepollected by ,the green foliage in proper quwntities while foliage of other oolor,s will not be. properly nouris'hed;'by the dews and moisture from earth and atmosphere. A rather .'curious experiment proves this.•. Paint a piece of glass yellow, an- other;.;;green and ono red and one black, as d place all these plainted pieces of gllass out in the open air over night during a summer or autumn night. " When examined early' the follow- ing morning it will be found that the yellow piece will be very wet and the green piece only moist, while the red ,andblack pieces will be dry, This is proof that yellow foliage would collect too, much dampness, and the red and .black would gather none: Green, •which collects the medium amount of moisture, •seems to be the. color best adapted to the conditions existing throughout the earth. Yellow foliage has been known to damp o,ff and decay under the same conditions that make green foliage thrive, A few yellow leaved plants are grown under considerable; difficulty under ordinary weatherconditions.

A11' of them held responsible positions on sugar plantations, the majority being overseers. The party which left' Honolulu numbered fourteen,ibut only eleven reached London, three having join- ed a regiment before reaching Brit- ain. Of the eleven remaining four went north to join the Seaforth Highlanders, two went into the pro- vinces to enlist in the Highland Division of the Royal :Engineers, and one, a Welshman, went west- ward to serve in a Welsh, regiment. The remaining . four, all Scots- men, went to the London Seottish headquarters to join. that • famous Territorial regiment. Three were enrolled; .but -the fourth,' Mr. Frank Brolan, did not pass "'the medical test, and was the most disappoint- ed man in London. A man of fine physique, weighing. 16 stone, looking the picture of health, Mr. Brolan was passed by two doctors before leaving Hono- lulu. Feeling fit and looking fit, he had travelled about 9,000 miles to fight for his country, and had been re- jected. He went 'back to his sugar plantation. '- All the members of the party paid their own expenses. .14 Will Quickly Cure Any Sour Stomach Relieves Fulness After Meals. "When I w,as working around the farm last winter, I had an attack of in- flammation," writes Mr. E. P. Dawkins, of Port. Richmond. "I was weak for a long time, but well enough to work until spring. But something went wrong with my bowels for I had to -use salts or physic all the time. • My stomach kept sour, and always after eating there' was pain and fulness, and all the symptoms of intestinal indi- gestion. Nothing helped me until I used Dr. Hamilton's Pills. Instead of hurting, like' other pills, they acted very mildly, and seemed to heal the bowels. .I did not require large doses to get results with Dr. "Hamilton's Pills, and feel so glad that f have found a mild yet certain remedy. To -day I am well—no pain, no sour stomach, a good appetite, able to digest anything. This is a whole lot of good for one medicine to do, and I can say Dr. Hamilton's Pills are the best pills, and my letter; I am sure, proves it."

GREAI.‘ 17thAINGe s Economical ''Methods of Purchasing Supplies. Nothing in nlunioipal history ex- cited more interest than the recent adoption by the City of New York of the C.P.R. method of purchas- ing 'supplies. New York orders for municipal purchasers total $22,000,- 000 worth of good each year and found that there Nvas much dupli- cation and waste, some of the de- partments paying retail prices for the ,same goods as were purchased. wholesale by others. Under the G.P.R, system everything is cen- tralized so as to •cut out the possi- bility of duplication either" in pur- chase or payment of goods, while. the terms are naturally all the more in favor of the 'railway. New York City sent a special investiga- tor round the Continent. to study methods of purchasing supplies, and he de'cided that the O.P.R. eys- tem was "the best for efficiency and saving." . This was naturally the source of much gratification to Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, who wasa im- self at one time plirchasing agent for the C.P.R., and established the present system. The New York ex- pert investigator hsas been busy ever since answering, letters from other Amerioan .. municipaditie,s, They pour in at the rate of about a hundred a week, ,lull wanting to know about the C.P.R: and its model purchasing department;' with a view to the adopting of •simi- lar methods in other cities. It has been calculated that the adoption of C.P.R. methods by American cities has saved Uncle Sam a waste of over a billion dollar's. SAVED BABY'S LIFE Mrs, Jos. Desrosiers, St. Al- phonse, Que., writes: "I cannot say too much in favor of Baby's Own Tablets, as they saved my little one's life. Before -giving him the Tablets he was greatly troubled with worms and was like a skeleton and cried dayand night. The Tab- lets soon- expelled the worms, and now baby is the picture of health.'"

More Supplies Are Required For Our Wounded Soldiers: We hope that our friends through- out the Province who have so nobly helped us to equip the Hospital, will not misunderstand our tardy acknowledgement of their gener- osity. The shower of Sheets kept on steadily and made it difficult to a,nnannce the result. We have to date received ten thousand (10,000) sheets—so we are still in need of at beast two thou•sand;moN. Zlhere need not he the .slightest fear of over -lapping. All the supplies re- ceived over and above the needs of our hospital are to be turned over to the Red Cross fox use in other, preferably Canadian, ho.spita1a. When our readers hear that now in .some of the hospitals in, France they are usi•n.g sheets a second time for lack of a sufficiently large sup- ply', the housewifely ,souls of our Canadian women will surely rise in rebellion against such conditions continuing. 'We hope and believe that the sad events of the last ten days will Make us more unselfish, more de- termined to provide all possible comfort, not only for our own, but for ALL who need our help-. Sure- ly in this hour every woman feels that all the Empire.'s sons are hers --hers to 'comfort in, every possible way. We still need also about two thousand pyjamas and the same number of surgical night shirts. Wild some of the circles of organ- ized ' workers come forward and help us.
