Thus it was clearly under- stood that such wounds must be slight but to be still réporting soldiers as “wounded degree undetermined”’ over five months at the very latest after oc- currence is hard to understand for even the work of verification has ap- parently accomplished nothing, al- though it would appear that plenty of time had been allowed for suck to have been disposed of in a more defi- nite manner long before this, all of which makes a poor showing. THE NEW HAVEN’'S TROLLEYS. In view of the troubles that are be- ing experienced by the trolley roads, the guestion as to what the New Ia- ven road is going to do with its large holdings of electric lines comes natu- rally to the front. According to the decision of the federal court the New Haven road must dispose of its trol- ley holdings by July 1, 1821. The se- curities at the present time have a book value of $100,000,000, the Con- necticut and Rhode Island companies having been for some time under the direction of trustces named by the court, but recently the latter has gone into the hands of receivers. The New Haven invested heavily in trolley lines when it was realized that the trolleys were big feeders of the railroads. It was expected thai they would be the means of increasing the railroad traffic, or that transportation in general would be controiled through the ownership of both. Comnditions have changed since that time and even since it was decreed that the road must dispose of the holdings in these electric lines. With the present sityation in mind it is certainly net a favorable time to { think of disposing of such securities. In fact it was not thought at the time that the trustees were named that it was wise to attempt the them. More favorable conditions were antic- ipated, but instead of improving they have gone the other way until today the state is being asked to come to the 2 pany to Kkeep it going. No one can teil what the state of af- will be two years hence con- the trolleys.

It iy perf evident, however, that if food is sent to Russia great care will have to be exercised in order to keep it out of the clutches of these who would continuc the present reign of terror. Whether such can be done rests largely with those who are at present undergoing ach privations. P age EDITORIAL NOTES.

If it were only possible to lasso that big berg up off Nova Scotia quite a handsome addition could be made to next summer’s ice supply. Burleson certainly cannot peint with much pride to the service that is being given by some of his wire lines in this part of the country. In view of the reputation which they have aiready got, it is gratifying to learn that the report of the loot- ing of an American food ship by the Germans is unirue. “New watch the republicans claim all the credit for the amendments to the league covenmant,” says the Charleston News and Courier, but it ought not to forget that Senator Reed, “Joe” Bailey, Colonel Watterson and others are not republicans. As long as Carranza is willing to accept the report that Zapata‘'is dead there’s not much for the rest of the world to worry about cencerning it.

If it burns brown, the oven is too hot. Marshmallows in dice and added to a fruit salad make a pleasant change. If eggs are stained, wash them quick- Iy in water containing a little vinegar and salt. A novel cranberry sauce has seeded dates added to it. Of course, it re- quires less sugar. A little tin funnel, held up by its ring, is excellent to hold a ball of string in the kitchen. Removing the outer leaves of the cabbage before boiling it will lessen} the objectional odor. Baking soda will sweeten milk ves- sels and clean brasswe, ana it is good for dish washing. In making omelet it is bLetter toadd hot water than milk, as milk makes the omelet tough. If the children’s shoes get soak wet, stuff. them with soft torn in little pieces. It is best to cater to the children's taste for sweels by making good, wholesome candy at home. 1f a raincoat needs cleaning spong it with ether and and alcohol, with a few drops of ammonia added. A piece of worn-out garden hose slipped over a stout stick or handle may be used for a carpet beater. If roast is to be served hot for two meals, cook it slightly the first day and slice only from one side. DAlLY CARE. Window plants collect dust and so should be carefully necessary, before watering so that they will get the btnefit of the water and look really greem and healthy. A palm, begonia or any woody plant may be dusted with a very soft bristle brush. The roots of plants must be thoroughly soaked. All plants do het- ter if repotted once a year so as to allow any necessary root expansion. Ferns must often be divided to prevent crowding. No plant should be crowded position in a room either against another plant or furniture if it is to look and do well. Neither must it be set in where it will get ing. for ferns ly have delicate fronds that are sensative to a mere touch. WASHING BOTTLES. To water hottles that have be- | come stained, put in bits of newspaper { torn into shreds, then half fill with hot soapy water in which has been dis- solved a little washing soda. Let stand a while, shake occasionally. Rinse with clear water and drain, PACKING FURS. Don't pack your fur clothes in boxes.

Hats show a decided preference for more trimming. Picture hats are partial to Chinese embroidery. The new tunic skirt has the tunic coming only to the knee, Grays and black form the smartest combination of the moment. A good deal of Chinese filettis used on flesh crepe blouses. Dressy taffeta suits are seen, some with #ape coat effects. The suit coat has made excellent use of the deep shawl collar. Copper, tete de negre and black are the faverite, colors for veils. The afternoon frocks have belts made of material rather than of rib- bon. The oxford shoe, topped by a ribbed stocking, has no rival fo rstreet wear. The pretty look at the hips, once known as the extension skir(, is still seen. Colored wooden beads take the place of buttons on fine vests of organdie. . Necklaces ending at the knees with Jjeweled pendants are fashionable. Train ‘effects are used in evening gowns, but the real trains have not yet arrived. VOGUE FOR FICHUS. Fichus are very much in vogue. Frequently they are made of the frock material but more often in the case’of a figured of plain one-toned summer the fichus is fashioned from white organdy. A smart frock made black foulard dotted in white had a fichus of black satin caught at the left side at the waistline by a large white mother of pearl buckle. = The edge of the fichus was trimmed with large whité beads. BUTTONS FOR TRIMMING. Buttons are a feature of the trim- ming scheme this season. Often a row or a double row of buttons is ar- ranged all the way down a frock front. Sleeves are button trimmed to the elbow or buttons run from the shoul- der to the wrist. Of navy blue velour delaine is a smart costume showing a double row of white buttons and buttonholes dis- played on a strip of organdy from at either side of the sleeves have an un- dersleeve of white organdy and a strip of white organdy tops the square decolletage. The collar of white organdy is high at the back. The high collar with square neck is an in- teresting detail of the new modes, The coat of many a new {ailnred suit opens to show a shirt front of linen or organdy like a man's shirt. This is plaited and ornamented with costly buttons at the middle of the front.and is accompanied by a cravat. LAUNDRY HINTS. ‘When ironing have a number of coat hangers to put things on.
