The pro-German agitators in this pountry are sadly handicapped by the conduct of the German government ‘toward the issues the American gov- ‘ernment has justly raised. ¢ The insincere and contemptuous ‘way in which Germany is treating ithese international questions, and the dontinuance of the destruction of ‘American ships and their cargoes will 1!0( put congress in a mood to make woncessions to German partisans any Zmore than to listen to peacemakers ‘who would continue this country's present condition of unpreparedness For Gefense in the face of present peril, If the German government ignores e law, goes on murdering Americans jand einking American ships, it is not Hikely President Wilsom's pet ship bill ill ind any favor whatever, i The incoming congress because of the issues probable and the character Df the factions is likely to become something of a hornet’s nest, and fhose who are un-American or un- patriotic should expect to get stung. THE NEXT GREAT DRIVE. ‘When the German drive in Russia is checked the Kaiser's forces will need a rest, after which attention will be given to a drive for the complete sub- Jugation of Belvium and the capture of the French coast to a point beyond Calals, and as many of the 3,000,000 men engaged in the capture of War- saw as can be spared will be brought into the new campaign. It is believed the Kaiser ‘has made his greatest drive in the west already. ‘The first drive there was by the great- est and best drilled army the world ever saw. It is estimated that the German and Austrian forces had per- manently lost prior to the Warsaw campaign two million seven hundred thousand men; the French one million, and the Belgians and the British 150, 000. The German-Austrian forces by this estimate now amount to 4,300,000 to thelr enemies’ 7,000,000. It this showing is correct the pros- @ect of the kaiser's breaking the west- ern lne and capturing the English channel coast is not very bright. NOT A GOOD LEADERSHIP. ‘There is Mttle fear that American Germans are going to follow o false #nd up-American lead in politics prompted by a foreign partisan spirit.

The American press is free and .fair, and it is well aware that deception is the basis for much military strat- egy, and that gross misrepresentation is at times & refuge for all warring forces. If it errs in its acceptance and Delief in what is true it is not strange. If “A Reader” had read The Bul- letin as carefully as he should he would have read in it that all these great Warring nations have been gullty of equally dark deeds, and that it stands for the soverelgnty of the in- dividual and detests monarchical gov- ernment of every type. The Bulletin is American first, last and forever. WHO WON THE CIVIL WAR? Occasionally ‘some cxcited adopted citizen will assure his American ais- putant that the Union was saved by men of alfen birth. It would be great- 1y to their credit it this were so, and they did furnish about one-fourth of the entire fighting force in that five years' conflict and acquitted them- selves nobly. The Germans led all other allens ‘with 175,000 fighting men, the patri- otic Irish being a close second with 150,000 men. The English and Brit- ish-American by birth furnished 100,- 000; and the representatives of all other countries 75,000. Taking the British empire as & whole it furnished in English, Scotch, Irish and Canadians 2 force of 250,000, or 25 per cent. of the alien forces to Germany's 17 1-2 por cent. The straight American enlistments amounted to over 2,000,000 of a total of 2,800,000. These are the true figures and they show that our adopted cltizens were true to the government and deserve a large share of the praise for help- ing to save the Union. = This Tecord is worth preserving. EDITORIAL NOTES. Only God knows who started the war and He only knows how it will end. The democratic policy leads up to the same old snag—a bond issue to meet a free-trade deficit. . A few people are satisfled with the polish on their shoes or on their heads and think they need no more. The democrats are likely to restore the duty on sugar for they have learn- ed it is sweet to have an adequate income. The ruler who is proud to ride in triumph in these days amid ruins and misery was igned for some other age than this. The Germans are teaching the world a great lesson in the application of gas to enemies.

It a family numbers only two or three, it makes & pleasant change to have the simple luncheon on a tray. A delicious menu for such an occasion is sandwiches of whole wheat bread, thickly buttered and spread with rais- ins, cocoa and a lettuce salad wWith French dressing. Broken potatoes, left over from & meal, should he mashed, added to a beaten egg, rolled into balls and fried or baked. Potatoes which are intended for roasting, baking or frying, should always be half-boiled first. It the children’s stockings go through with the regular laundry, they will grow faded much more quickly than if you wash them separately, for the reasor. that they do not lie in the soapy water so long. And they should be dried indoors away from the sun. Relieve the stress of housecleaning by taking it in a systematic way. First, the day that the third story is to be swept, precede the sweeping by taking everything out of the closets; then as each room is swept, the closets can be scrubbed sweet and clean and the arti- cles put back in good order, carefully sorting out all trash and old clothing to be given or thrown away. Follow this system all the way down to the first floor, and when cleaning time comes it will be a comparatively simple task. GORED SKIRTS. Gorea skirts are rapidly appearing. One of the latest models shown is cut lise an_umbrella, with elght or ten gores. The seams are jolned by a cord and a cord finishes the scalloped edge at the bottom of the skirt. Each scal- lop is the width of the gore at the bot- tom. The many gored skirt recalls skirts worn several years ago, and one wonders if this is a forerunner of the once popular organ pipe skirts which haq from eleven to ffteen gores, and with the aid of haircloth were made to form a rounded effect resembling the pipes of an organ. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. Remember that rich foods are en- emies of a delicate skin. The rose leaf skin of the baby comes from its simple diet. Sick headache caused from indiges- tion may often be cured by taking two teaspoonfuls of powdered charccal in half a glass of water. Sleeplessness is frequently due to want of food: a glass of warm milk and a bit of bread will often send the restless one to sweet slumbers. The tendency to hair growth on the face which is fostered by the use of grease may be checked by using spirits of camphor with it. A cupful of hot water with a little lemon juice added to malke it palatable, taken the first thing in the morning, will often prevent a bilious attack. Hot water as a beverage is exceed- ingly wholesome, especially when the digestive organs are weak. It should be taken before and after each meal. Many smart women nowadays are trying the “simple life” beauty culture. That 1s, they are discarding expensive creams and face washes in favor of simple homely products and remedies made from herbs and plants. So far has the new craze gone that some women never travel without being ac- companied by stone jars containing elder water, and their first request at the hotel is for buttermilk, which is excellent for intereior and exterior treatment. Those who are dubious as to whether the fashion of the V shaped corsage will suit them should take a looking glass ,and examine the contour of the neck more critically, Time's hangers begin their withering task in front of the neck; and if signs of age are ap- pearing it is necessary to besin a series of exercises at once, and to practice them consclentiously day after day. Standing in an easy atti- tude, with the hands on the hips, in front of a looking glass, the head should be moved backward as far possible and the under jaw be thrust out at the same time, 50 that the stretching process upon the chin is felt. . In this attitude tum the head from the rizht to the left several times over, and the tonic effects of the exercise will soon be perceptible. HOW TO CLEAN PEWTER. A shop which makes a speclalty of genuine pewter ware says that in cleaning pewter whiting or any good silver powder can be used. The polish hould, hower, first be mixed with olive ofl, machine ofl or vaseline, or even kerosene and then rubbed all over the object. Then wipe it off and polish with the dry powder applied With & soft cloth. GLASS JARS BEST, Never keep vinegar br yeasp in stone crocks or jugs. Acid atacks the glaxing, which is said to be poisonous. Glass s better. A red-not iron will soften old putty 85p that it can be easily removed. To test nutmess—Prick with a pin; if good the oil will instantly spread around the puncture. DICTATES OF FASHION, Taffeta petticoats are coming into favor. Organdies are high in favor among Russian violet is the neme 0 new shades of purple. wres earrying out the itary effects on ‘Tussor nfihmmhufiah Black Bralds will be used on tans, mnflnflu:nm.-. " Short gloves are again in vogue be- cause of the long sieeves. Very smart are fruit ornaments worn on garments and millinery. Children’s clothes are simple in con- struction and roomy in cut.

Jackets to correspond nicely with the full skirt, should be short. The turn-down coat collar gains in favor as the season advances. The separate skirt has developed and. now may be seen made in from five to twenty-four gores. COLORED BLOUSES. The vogue of the all-white waists is also going out, for the new blouses are in pale tints, yellow predominatin, ‘White crepe de chine and the soft cot- ton crepe re first in favor as materi- Another notable feature of these blouses for spring is the “out- side” finish, most of the blouses being made so to come down outside the skirt, ‘sometimes forming a little buttoned vest. and sometimes merely ending in eash-like loops or fastening snugly with a single buckle covered with the material. They are all far more elaborate than in former seasons, but the frill, both single and doble, has been set aside. Its death kmell was sounded by the introduction of the winter suits but- toning close up to the throat, and now with summer at hang the little waist- coat is S0 popular that the frill has been definitely set aside. With it has gone the deep sailor collar, the new blouses all showing either a high flaring collar or a flat, narrow one of soft material, and in some instances the neck is finished imply with a band of the material, with frill of net inside to lend a soft finish close to the skin. MARSHMALLOWS. To keep marshmallows fresh for an indefinite length of time place them in a glass jar used for canning. Put in a slice of bread about an inch thick and seal tightly. When bread is dry put in a f@sh plece. HOME ECONOMICS. Home economics is a great sclence. A number of sciences are embraced in_home economics. No one can be too well trained to be a good homemaker. Everything is required of the house- hold manager nowadaye. Food, shelter and clothing are the chief lines of household economy. The practical, intellectual, moral and spiritual are all part of home- making. There must be & pleasant. health- ful house, well cared for in every de- tail dally. Suitable clothing must be provided, and cared for constantly after being purchased economically. Food planned for individual nour- ishment and within the family in- come must be supplied three times a ay. The feeding, clothing and training of children must be attended to each day, and every wrong tendency, phy- sical, moral. mental and spiritual, noted and corrected. The moral atmosphere of the home is a big part of the work of the house- hold manager, who must uphold high ideals of home life, and at the same every line of advan DON'T SHARE HANDKERCHIEFS. Many a mother makes a practice of wiping baby’s nose or mouth with her own handkerchief. Of all ways to give a child a cold, to “swap” hand- kerchiefs is about the best, and a youngster cannot be taught foo early in life to look in its own pocket for “handky,” and if somebody in the family has a cold the sufferer should be supplied with paper handkerchiefs or soft rags, which may be burned. It is a wise plan to lay aside wornout handkerchiefs for this pus When a child begins with & cold isolate it from the other childrén in the house and do not let it attend achool until it is better. Not only is a cold contagious in- itself, but in children a cold is often but the be- ginning of & contagious disease and it is not fair to other children to let them come in contact with a cold un til it is proven to be nothing seriou: There is no_better gargle or nose douche for a beginning_inflammation than salt and water. Of course, the solution must be weaker for the no Nose douches should be taken only from a doctor's advice, as the mem- brane of the nose is very delicate and the treatment must necessarily vary with the individual. Never go out of doors directly after spraying nose and throat. BROWN FROSTING.

CONCERNING WOMBEN. Mrs. Winifred Harper Cooley, presi- dent of the Associated Club of Domes- tic Science, recently undertook to lve on § cents a day, and is said to have succeeded beyond her expectations, The report does not say she has con- cluded to keep it up. The women of St. Paul who are members of the General Federation of Women's Clubs have agreed upon a siirt that istwo yards wide, and will attempt to {nterest other ¢iubwomen to the skirt.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Rights of the People. Mr. Editor:—For the benefit of those “Constitution of unfamiliar with the the Upited States” will you kindly print in your Mondey issue the fol- lowing: Article IV.—“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, and effects, against unreason- able searchers and seisures shall not be violated: and no warrants shall is- sue but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, end particu- larly describing the place to be searched and the persons or things to be_sgized.’ Ignorance of the law excuses no one. ESTELLE A. GILMAN. Brooklyn, Conn., Aug. 6, 1915. Stories of the War Enomy Impression of British, Our turn now came. Our opponents are for the most part Englishmen; the Belgians and French are in the minori- ty. When we were able to rest for ome moments after our first fight, and thought of those who had already been left on the field during the first few hours (there were a considerable number of my company, namely 43), the stupid thought occurred to me in- voluntarily: “So these losses have been inflicted on us by the second-rate s of mercenares of the Bnglish. 5 Tor that is how they were de- scribed many times at home In va- rlous newspapers! We have now had the opportupity for fourteen days for making a closer acquaintance with these “hired slaves.” I shall give you more detalled information later about our fight with the English; but first I should like to express opé wish, and it is this: that those peogle who so often make their remarks about the “hired slaves” of the English had only teen once for 24 hours at our side dur- ing the last 14 days: I honestly believe they would get quite a different idea of the beardless figures with the long legs (which according to their opinion they only had for running away). We have learned to know the English as troops that are at least.of equal worth with ourselves. Their movements dur- ing the fight often throw us into as tonishment. Their methods of fight- ing, which T learned to know from the closest proximity, reminds me now that 1 have time to think about i, of the ceable competitions at home in our wmnasiums and sport must say it once mor no second-rate opponents. been obliged to fight for fourteen days grounds. 1 with these people for every foot of ground: hardly had we driven them out of ong position than they were firmly established again thefl next mo- ment in another position and they al- 5o at once procegded to counter-at tack—From soldierd letter in “Metal Workers' Gazette” (German). Corporal Joyner’s Experiences. Corporal Walter. Joyner, & member of the crack Princess Patricias, and an Ottawa boy by birth told a very interesting story to a Citizen reporter. Joyner is twenty-six years of age. He received his discharge, not medi- cally fit, op July 1, and arrived in Quebec on Sunday on the Steamer “Before you ask me and questions, said Joyner, “I wish to state that the expression, War is hell, is the truest thing that was ever uttered. It horrible beyond all description. Following this pointed statement, Joyner proceeded to show the re- potter his wounds. “This is worst of them all” he said as he pushed forward his right hand show- ing the third finger missing and the thumb and forefinger badly mutilated, “I got that on May 1 when a shrap- nel burst right beside me.” Then he shoved forward his left hand and showed where he had been struck by a bayonet on February 22 at St. Eloi. “q¢ T hadm’t got it there I would have gotten it in some more vital spot, said Joyner. {“:‘"’ it off and it entered my hand t just as I was doing that, one of my comrades struck the fellow that was wielding it Joyner's other wound is on the back of the head. It was causeq by a fragment of a bursting shell and beyond rendering him un- conscious for two hours did not do any serious damage. This wound was received at the second battle of Ypres in February. Asked as to what he thought of Major Hamilton Gault, Joyner said: e's the bravest man I ever saw end @ born commander. He was wounded twice, first in the arm‘and the second time in the leg and side. He is now out of action.” Jeyner said that he was within ten feet of Col. Farquhar when the latter was shot. “The bullet entered several inches below his shoulder, struck a bone and glanced downward doing serious internal injury. Col. Farqui last words were: “Bury me among my men Verrozoomelle,” he was & spiendid man,” saia Joyner. je Jongest term we in the trenches was twelve days.

In & room in the prime minister's house in Downing street the prime minister himself and three principal members of the cabinet are waiting for & reply to the ultimatum eent to Germany at moon. The time for the reply expires at midnight. n: her isters canpot even yet selves to believe that Germany will break her pledged word. She has not yet replled, but she will do 0: she must. There is more than an hour left. Bven at the last moment the tele- phone bell ‘may ring and the reply of Germany handed to the Bril ambassador in Berlin will reach Lon- don. It is a calm autumn evening, the windows are open to St. James' Park, which lies dark and silent as far as Buckingham Palace in the distance. The streets of London round about the official residence are busy enough, quivering with excitement. After all, the reply to the wuiti- matum has not even yet arrived, and the absence of a reply is equivalent to a declaration of war. Sudenly one of the little company remembers Som: thing that ev has bitherto for- gotten; the difference of an hour be- tween the time of London and Beriin. Midnight by mid-Europesn time will be 11 oclock in London. Germany would naturally understand this de- mand for a reply by midnight to mean midnight in the country of despatch, therefore at 11 o'clock London time the time for the reply will expire. It is now approaching 11 o'clock. As the clock ticke out the remaining minutes the tension becomes terrible, talk slackens, there are long pauses. The whole burden of the frightful is- sues involved for Great Britain, France, Belgium, Russia, Germany, for Europe, for the world, for civilization, for re- ligion itself, seems to be gathered up in these last few moments. If war comes now it will be the most trightful tragedy the world ever has witnessed. Twenty millions dead, perhaps, civil life crippled for a hundred years. Which is it to be—peace or war? It is terrible to think of. As they sit thers the electric wires may be flashing the awful tidings like a flying angel of life or death through the dark air all over Burope. The four men are walting for the telephone to ring., It does mot ring, and {he fingers of the clock are moy- ing. The world-seems on tiptoe listen- ing for the thunder stroke of fate. The minutes at length sit silent snd rigid, almost petrified, looking fixedly at the floor or ceiling. Then through the awful stiliness of the room and the park outside comes the deep boom of Big Ben— boom— boom—boom! No_one moves until the last of the eleven strokes has gone reyerberating through the night. Then comes & voice heavy with emotion, yet firm with resolve: “It's war!™ ‘When the clock struck lfi: at midnight Great Britain had at war for an hour without knowing it. 1t I have done wrong in lifting the curtain on this private scene I ask forgiveness for the sake of the pur- pose I put it to; that of showing it was not in haste not in anger but with an awful sense of responsibiiity to Great Britain and humanity that our responsible ministers drew the sword of our.country. OTHER VIEW POINTS The Watertown Times aptly illus- trates the freedom and utter lack of secrecy concerning our national de- fenses which prevails and has prevail. ed 50 long in this country when it asks “Why are the foreign governments such spendthrifts?” And it then goes on to say that they spend millions of dollars in maintaining sples to take pietures of our fortifications “when they might buy them on postcards for a cent apiece.” There is a good deal of truth in that humorous rod at our want of all reasonable prudence— Bridgeport Standard. A Miiford friend of the editor com- gratulates himself that in that town lobsters can be purchased for as low as 25 cents & pound. He feels elated by reason of the fact that in Greem- wich, where he recently resided, 50 cents & pound was the minjmum price. Shades of the early days of this in- fant century arise and memory turns to the time when the Juscious crusta- cean could be bought in wheelbarrow Joads at the Guilford slujce dock for five and six cents & pound. But that was years ago—Shore Line Times. Beginning on Monday, it will be law. ful to shoot deer in Conneeticut for the first time in 15 years. Any farmer may kill a deer upon his own ferm. whether owned or leased, and any member of his family, or_bona fide am- ploye, may kill a deer, but only upon said farm. There will be no inate hunting.
