Sometimes they re found in long coats, with flax.; ng sections set art at' the hips, ometimes they are pint into short ackets, of whish, by .the way, there re a rather surprisingly large num 'er, in view of earlier predicteins reit aIle coats would be short Brown and Navy.—Seldom before - as there been such a long reign of ne color as there has been of navy Iue. For ,several seasons it has Bell increasingly worn. And it till stands supreme among colors street wear. Brown, as every- ne knows, is .another favored color his year. Irt an effort to tally up hese two fiats, the dressmakers ave combined tlhe two colors. ' An dd combination it seems at first. ut a frock of thine satin, with a rown velvet bodice, is deaided'ly atere,sbing. Pun Tucked Net—Among the full i:rts, those of tucked net are per- aps the most attractive. Theyare esitively "pretty," a quality •ack- gg in nanny of the season's frocks. ome'times tucks of chiffon are ap- fied to a, full net skirts mounted ver a satin foundation. Soiaze- imes tucks of .chiffon are applied to -full net skirt, mounted over a atin foundation. Sometimes the et or tulle itself is tucked, in even ticks or in graduated ones, the vider ones at the bottom, the eemall- r ones a,t the top. Buttons. Bnbeans are in great :emend. Dressmakers use them for 'inning in a thousand different vays. There are fur buttons on clobh coats. There are self -colored buttons on suits and coats. There re jet and steel and enamel but - ons. There are fancy silly and vel- vet buttons. Belts—In epite of the feet that he waistline has dropped many inches belts are still used to empha- size the waistline. The belt at the hips is usually wider than she belt at the waist used to be, but it is still a regulation belt. On many Ixocke and coats the tittles are of the 'mater'ial, stitched, trimmed with self -covered buttons, n.nel buttoned shut. Sometimes these wide belts tee held in place 'by straps of the :laterial., sometimes they are stitch - d into position. Braid Bindings._ -Some ver a- ctive tsuibs are worn from time -to gime with bindings of wide silk raid. When these braid -bound nits hirst .appeared they gave elle he impression that they would quickly become popular. They are not widely warn, however, and are still very distinctive. Perhap• chi; is because they have not been much eveloped in inexpensive •suits. One that is especially good in style is tade of brown aring tunic, ossed infront,oth,tlth bouna d with darker 'brown braid, a, narrow foundation skirt bound with the braid and a. long coat with flaring cutaway. skirts also tbound on ail edges with the braid. Velvet and Kid Belts. --Same smarm new 'belts are made of velvet and kid. The belts are about four inches wide, with a strip of velvet edged with a half-inch band off white kid. The velvet is deep gold - xi yellow, king's blue or crimson. The buckle is covered with white 'ski and is a Ibig, oblong one. With a Grain of Salt. The war has given rise to all sorts of sensational statements and predictions. One writer, whose. book has had a large sale in Eng- land and America, has tsaid, for ex - maple, that the German general ex - [ plans to laun,h Zeppelin air - hips filled with a gas fifteen times !lighter theta hydrogen, ,aind made of r metal that, although as rigid as _'eel, is three times lighter than tJttmanum. In a letter to the Tianee, lir Williaan Ramsay points out the hem -di -by of th,s statement. Filling as airship with a gas of no weight t all, if such a gasexisted would of help !much— A balloon owes'irts uoyancv to hydrogen, aga,s t4% nes ars light as air. If the gas had o weaghat atsall, the buoyant power 'meld be increased very little, As a a metal only one-third as heavy 1 aluminum, eheilnisits would ,agree tat the existing of any such metal in the highest degree improbable. i•ere are excellent reasone for be- ;vimg that no light metal reinadme bo discovered. Again, when Tur- y doplared war on Russia and gland, the writer referred to pre. seed in the New York press that s first move of Turkey would be blow up the lo,eks in the Suez nal, As a, matter of fact the ns alma has n loge. : ' PL .BSICKLY Ne•ed All the Strength Mat • Good Red Blood Can Give . Youth is the time to lay the foun- datron for health.' Every boy and girl should have plenty of pure, red brood and strong nerves, With thin, impure blood, they start life with a handicap too great to win success and happiness. Pure, red blood means healthful growth, strong - nerves, at clear brain and a good e digestion. In a word, pure blood is o the foundation of health, The signs of thin, impure blood m are man and unmistakable.

One of the things frequently noted by soldiers ait the • front in writing to relatives and friends is the extraordinary expenditure of bullets required lee kill a man. A German report state -s that many Germain soldiers fired 4,000 cart- ridges apiece during the first month of the war, An Englith observer eels -elated that 25 Germtan shells are wasted for every man killed by them. In 19)70 it was ca2culated that tihe Germans fired 150 bullets and six shrapnel shells for every wound- ed Frenehman. In the Russo-Ia,pa- nese War it is said 3,000 bullets were fired for every life lost.
