Action which. was exfiected as a natural consequence- of the position taken by General Maurice in connec- tion with the recent attack upon Lloyd George and the British ministry comes in the announcement to the ef- fect that he has been removed from his war activities and placed upon the retired list. ~This will -place him where he will not be of further trou- ble to the government because he will not be able to get into touch with military affairs as he has in the past. That such a move would be made in view of the support which was given to the ministry following his attack| must have been anticipated by the general. That he was the goat in the Jhole affair has been indicated, but he should have realized the mistake waich he was making by such con- duet while a military officer. - | Notsatisfied with the affront to the { head of the allied forces when he pre- sumed to tell General Foch that he was not handling the French troops in the right ‘way to back up the British, he not only criticised the British min- istry for its acts but claimed that cer- tain members indulged in falsehoods for the purpose of foolinz the people He made the great mistake of bring- ing such -charges. publicly instead of throuzh the regular military channels, A good sponge is expensive and re- quires care in using, but if it becomes slimy rinse it several times in hot water.

THE PRICE OF SUBSTITLUTES. Food Administrator Hoover hag ap- parently been listening to some of the complzints made by the users of sub- stitute for' wheat, if we judge rightly from th: announcements which have been made to food administrators in the different states to the effect that wheat flour substitutes should sell for from 10 to 20 per cent. less than wheat four. One of the things which it has been Impossible to understand is the fix- tng of the price of wheat while the substitutes for wheat have been al- lowed to go up and up and up as the following the same sort of a move against Zee- brugge, vet it is a fact that that move the British claimed- it did by putting a hole in the mole and blocking the channel so whenever there 1as been a let up in the British bom- prardment from the air, trying to re- was carried out along similar lines to the attempted such a thing but its col- lapse made it necessary to take action French housewives consider the finest of fats for making cakes and especially | much as $1.10 per pound. So great is the demand for this fat that many people make a business of collecting it from butchers and others who dress poultry before delivering it to cus- As attention continues o be drawn to the airplane situation and the in- vestigation which has Heen started for the nurpose of sifting the charges made by Gutzon Borglum, it becomes more and more- evident that this mat- ter has been taken up none too soon. Quite in accord with euch affairs, attacks have now been opened upon Mr. Borglum, his character and what it is claimed is his real purpose in seeking authority from the president to make a study of the airplane situa- tion. Those who claim to have been associated with him somehow or other, or who have stood in the way of the investigation which he made and prevented him from obtaining facts which were necessary in getting at the root of the trouble connected with the failure to turn out flying ma- chines in keeping with the promises made a year ago, are now turning upon him like hungry wolves and en- deavoring to blacken his efforts be- fore the eyes of the people. To all of these Mr. Borglum has an answer ves would do well.to sist on having it delivered if they buy i poul dressed. By using chicken fat in cooking they can cutj down the amount of fat they must buy for that purpose. To prepare it, try it out in a double boiler or other vessel set in hot water until the fat just melts away from the | tissues and can be poured off. This fat becomes rancid easily and should be kept cool and covered like butter and used in a very few days. in- complished all that was desired by " HEALTH AND BEAUTY. Should you be troubled with erup- tions on the skin, try applying a bit of zinc ointment, which can be purchased at any drug store. There are various-makes of the ointment, but almost any one of them is good. This will dry the eruption and it will soon disappear. Do not make a practice, however, of using the" zinc cream and for an oily complexion bathe the face with water in which a few drops of benzoin have been dis- solved or with camphor water. The latter is also good for large pores. mate reason. and it certainly seems that anyone in his position would not have attempted what he has had there been any euch charges which could properly be brought against himself. The same may be said about those who are now attacking him. It is therefore of the utmost im- portance that the entire matter should be sifted to the bottom at the earliest possible moment. No mistake has been made in starting the investiga- tion. » A predisposition to cold-sores us- ‘| ually indicates a digestive disturbance, which should be corrected. Exposure to wind will also cause them. Soften- ing them several times a day with vaseline or cold cream will help to relieve the pain. 'Spirits of camphor will check them if used when they first appear. Tf they form a blister they should be opened with a sterile needle, and care must be taken to avoid in- fection. They should be bathed sev- eral times a day with peroxide of hydrogen. EDITORIAL NOTES. People cannot help realizing from every day experience that there can be no thought of abandoning economy. For perspiring feet bathe them fre- quently with warm water to which a little ammonia has been added. After drying the feet should be dusted over with boracic powder. Bathing in alum water will afford relief to burning and tender feet. There is nothing more strengethening to the feet than salt, Germany: of course feared for. its army in Ukrainia but there hasn’t been much consideration given to the Uk- rainians.

The position of the householder has been much the same as that of the farmer of wheat who could not understand why he should with large holdings not feed wheat to his livestock inas- much as he could get only $2.20 a bushel for it when if he used corn or other grain it would cost him about twice as much to keep his farm going. It therefore appears to. be a timely move on the part of Mr. Hoover when he directs the state administrators to order wholesalers to stop dealing with retailers who cannot justify prices on the basis of the cost prices, and points out that corn and oat meal should sell for 20 per cent. less than wheat flour and corn and barley flour for ten pér cent. less. MEETING THE NATION'S NEEDS. This country has been working to the limit for the purpose of increas- ing the number of ships. The indus- tries of the nation have been turned over to the production of war sup- plies and for yvears factories have been busy getting out small arms not cnly for the United States but for our allies. There has been marked ac- tivity in behalf of securing a bigger and stronger navy, while the needs of other branches of the war machine have not been ignored even though not as good progress has been made It reported and fully recognized that there has been quantities of the substitutes in most cases, that these substitutes are not desired abroad or as easily exported as thus posed to the latest offensive it is be- . is as luxurious as the all silk variet; cause it has not proved as successful|can be made from the silk fiber.

NEW SLEEPING SUIT. a At last there is something really new shown in the shops in night clothes. The one piece sleeping suit is now to be purchased in many different ma- terials and at all sorts of prices, The Billie Burke sleeping suit in the wash silks and crepe de chine has met with so much favor that the manufacturers ; thought it wise to make up the cheaper garments in this style as well. The two piece pajamas in muslin may now be bought in the mandarin style slip- over jacket. QUAINT BOUDOIR CAP. A pretty little cap that reminds one faintly of the head coverings worn by French sailors—in shape, not in color- ing—is made of pale pink crepe de chine. A straight band four inches wide or so of the silk is edged with a frill of inch wide lace and banded with rows of insertion to match. The crown is made of fine Brussels net over the pink silk anq is divided into four seg- ments by straps of narrow ping satin or velvet ribbon, the center of the crown, where they cross, belng adorned by a fluffy pink pompon.

Occurring as they did they arouse more than the ordinary suspicion. ® Some of the new topcoats have nar- row. yokes. & The triumph of the one piece gown continues. Tailor $nade garments are taking a new lease of life. Tulle is used again on the . high oiffure for evening. Gold cloth is prominent in both day cloth hold aianq evening robes. Many small capes are collared with ne or ruffed with georgette or satin and lined in plain colors of charmeuse or in soft figured taffeta. Serge dresses have collar, cuffs, belt of plaig gingham. Pheasant’s feathers are used. They wind around the edge of the brim and around the top of the crown of some smart hats. ‘Black patent leather belts are to he worr with voile and chiffon gowns. If you have a locket tucked away, get it out -and wear it. It is fashion- able again. Decidedly artistic are straizht, long blouses of velvet with cbllarless neck ' and elbow sleeves that are worn in the afternoons. ¥ AGAIN SUMMER FURS. To return to the subject of furs does | not require a great effort, for we havei been thinking about them all the time. And we must own that never have summer’s furs been more charming nor the combination of skins (a fre- quent trick of the furrier's to display the beauty of his favorite kins - by showing off one against \ the other) more effective. The type of garment whick gives promise of becoming popular is the! cape coatee. This chic affair is often so short| (ending at the hips as a rule) than one might almost think it a straight strip of fur flung across the shoulders ard kept on by slipping the arms throughh the slits in the sides. | Often a large square piece of fur hangs over the shoulders in thres cor- nered fashion. Then the points come in the back and front and over the | arms and the front closes at the waist and frequently requires the aid of a fur belt to complement its length. On some gmodels the ends of this square of fur fasten together on one shoulder (a la Italian army cape). Moleskin, that, soft. silky pelt, leads in popularity. but it is closely followed by the ever taileq kolinsky and by squirrel in both gray and brown. But if milady does not fancy the coatee the straight stole bids fair to win her heart, for it is quite without any shape of its own and consequently may be worn in any shape itsi owner may desire, Its.looks well, if long, enough, when it takes a shawl fcr its pattern and wraps about a figure, or it may be flung around the neck with one end in front and the other in back. Or folded, in half, it may take the form of a sur- plice, crossing down the front. In this case belted in with leather or silk, it is given an extremely chic finish. Fox is a favorite for the small neck- piece, and even the little tulle affair is still seen. CLEAN CORSETS. Corsets may be cleaned at home by laying on a marble topped washstand and brushing with a stiff brush and good white scap and water. Finally dip the. brush into clear warm water and scrub again; then dry with rough towels. i LAUNDRY HINTS, Colored clothes will be brishter and hold their color longer if hed in clean suds and rinsed in very blue water; if they are starched make the starch blue. If your flat ircas seem rough and dirty, pour some fine salt out on a cloth or paper and rub the irons over it. If your flat irons have rusted, rub them over with a cloth wet in Kero- sene oil. If bluing is put into lukewarm water the clothes will never be streaked. ‘Wash clothesline in strong brine to prevent clothes from freezing on. Dip | clothespins in brine also and there will be no trouble taking clothes off the line in the coldest weather. salt in the rinsing water. A little sugar in starch—about a teaspoonful—wil! give the starched pieces a nice gloss. Never wash a sheer- blouse or col- far without mending any tiny rips or breaks that may have appeared, or without removing possible stains. It is well to remember—says a writer in the Philadelphia Public Ledger, that most but not all, fruit stains and those made by tea or coffee can be removed by pouring boiling water over the spot. Bloodstains should hej soaked ; in cold water, then washed in cold water, then in warm water with plenty of soap. Ink spots should be rinsed in repeated cold waters, then soaked in milk. Neither cold water nor milk will fix a stain. FOOD QUOTAS. The man who works hard needs in a day twelve ounces of one or of a combination of the following: Meat, pouitry, cheese, dried vegetables, fish or eggs. To vary the above he may count every glass of milk drunk equal to an ource of any one of the others. The soldiers, either in home or mili- tary life must have four pounds of fresh fruit and vegetables in order to keep the bony structure in good con- dition. . He will need the three- quarters of a cupful of fat (this in- cludes butter, oil, the fat of meat eaten or any other fat in the daily diet) to keepwim warm, and to this group he| must add one and one-fourth pounds! of bread or cereal, and finally, in order | to complete the necessary amount of driving power he must have two ounces of sugar or one-third of a cup- ful of sirup. MADONNA CAPE. Capes have evidently made good, for they are shown now in all the better | shops and not a few are seen worn by well-dressed women. It is a draped style with arm hole or wide sleeve in one side only. The other side falls loosely or can be caught up with a snap fastener to form an opening for the hand. The straight hanging styles are perhaps best, either with or with- out a body part or vestee. Some have merely extended collar ends or tabs that cross and fasten around the waist. CHILDREN’S COATS. Smart checks in dark tones— for ex- ample, two shades of brown in a’‘small check—as well as in black and white, are embployeq in the spring coats for the small girl. Homespun in light colors, such as blue, rose, green and tan, also silver thread velours, serges and novelty cloths are made up in a wide variety of styles. There are the elongated waist and plaited forms, the 11 T0 OCEAN Women Praise Lydia E.

In splendid stub- bornnesse of courage the British are standing up against the almost over- powering onrush, warding a blow here, stepping back there like a boxer in the ring waiting his chance to counter, fighting, fighting, fighting, with never a thought entering his hard head of throwing up the sponge. And the French. glory be, are coming up, flowing in long rivers of blue, as someone has expressed it, into the battle-sea. In imagination I can hear the song of their bugles, as I have so often heard it in reality, ringing out as clear as ‘bells’ through storm- thunder. France “bled white”? Not vet, by God! As for ourselves—we are “in it” at last, not thus far in our full strength, but in it for all we are worth; in it to stay until—God will- ing—the blpck-barred flag of the Boche is lowered in defeat. Side by side with the brave lads of the Army in France, and now in the very fore-front of the fighting, stand- a force of Uncle Sam's sea-soldiers of the Marine Corps, than which— imbued as it is with the discipline of the Navy and governed largely by th¢ same regulations and “customs of thc service” that exist in the Army—nc finer body of troops serves under thc country's colors. For nearly a cen- tury and a half—the first American Marines were raised in 1775—its story is one of faithful service, and the right to the motto, Semper Fidelis, proudly borne upon its standards, has been nobly won, afloat and -ashore, in all quarters of the globe. The Marine Corps is to be almost doubled in strength, the ranks to be high waist line and bolero jasket effects and the straight line coats with belt belt of self material CONCERNING WOMEN. Women are now replacing. men in nearly all the munitions plants in the filled through some forty thousand voluntary enlistments.
