By Associated Press. —— eee WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.—Flat rejection by the United States of Germany’s proposal to discuss international differences with- out first halting the legal submarine campaign left one other sug- gestion of the-Berlin government still pending at the State Depart- ment today. That was to reaffirm the Prussian-American treaties of 1799 and 1828, relating mainly to treatment of enemy residents in war times, with a number of new provisions which ap- parently would constitute almost a new treaty. It seemed quite probable that this proposal, the same as that submitted to Ambassador Gerard at Berlin after he had asked for his passpor.s and which he declined to consider, will be frowned upon also, Both offers were to the State Department behalf of Germany. A.report ‘probably will be made through the same channel that no Ger- man merchant ships have been seized in American ports and no German sail- ors have been imprisoned. The Gov- ernment then will look for immediate release of the 72 American sailors cap- tured from British ships in the Atlantic by a German raider and now de- tained in Germany. The State Depart- ment was notified yesterday that they are still held pending receipt of infor- mation on the German crews in this country. Cabinet Discusses Situation. President Wilson abandoned his usual morning game of golf and remained at work in his study today. In the after- noon the Cabinet met and went over the situation. Among the questions now be- ing carefully considered are: The proposed conference of neutrals io outline the rights of the nations not engaged in the war. This has not takei deiinite form and its exact status has not been divulged; nevertheless, it is idea has not been aban- doned. Loaning guns for the arming of Amer- fcan merchants ships.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.—This was Count von Bernstorff’s last day in ».ashington. The former Ambassador and Countess von Bernstorff and the embassy staff will leave here late to- night for New York, where they take passage tomorrow on the Danish liner Frederick VIII for home. The Count and Countess spent much of the day in bidding adieu to persona! friends and in completing eleventh-hour packing. Final arrangements also had been made for turning over the embassy to Dr. Paul Ritter, Swiss Minister, who will look after German interests in the United States. Peru Expresses Hope That U. §. will Not Be Drawn Into War. LIMA, Peru, Feb. 13.—The Peruvian Foreign Minister, Enrique de la Riva Aguero, in replying to the American Minister respecting President Wilson's suggestion that other neutral nations take the same position as the United States on the German submarine cam- paign says: “In reply to your excellency’s note, it | Sives me pleasure to say that my Gov- ernment fully appreciates the principles and intentions that guide your excel- lency in the present einergency, which are in complete conformity with your note of April 18 and which uphold the defense of the rights of all neutral na- tions, seriously threatened by the new methods of maritime war now attempt- ed to be established. “My Government trusts that some modification can still be obtained, open- ing the way to sentiments of justice and concord which will prevent the bring- ing upon America the horrors of a war without parallel in history.” German Sailors at Honolula Released; Ships Damaged $500,000, HONOLULU, Feb. 13.—The 76 sailors from various German ships taking refuge in Hawaiian waters have been !’ released from detention under orders, it is said, from Secretary of Labor Wil- son. Simultaneously charges against officers and men held for alleged de- struction of machinery and otherwise damaging the self-interned ships were dismissed in the Federal Court. Machine guns and ammunition were found stored aboard the German in- terned cruiser Geier, which wag set on fire here Feb. 4 by her crew. At the time the Geler interned, her command- er was ordered to turn over al] his arms and ammunition to the United States naval authorities. A number of German merchantmenr, free to go to sea at any time, have heen lying in port here. They are now in- capacitated, fires having been bullt by their crews under empty boilers.

KOELN SOUSTED. | UNTIL MARCH 9 BY SUPREME COURT Sidney S. May, Appointed by Major, Held to Be Entitled to the Office. QUESTION AS TO FEES Koeln Doesn’t See Where May Is to Get Them—To Regain Office in Three. Weeks. The Supreme Court at Jefferson City today held that the appointment of Sid- ney S. May as Collector of the Revenue in St. Louis, made Dec. 11 last by Gov. Major, was legal, and that May is en- titled to take the office, which has been held by Edmond Koeln. May’s term, however, will continue only until March 5, when Koeln will again take the office for a term ending after the election of November, 1918. On learning of the decision, Koeln an- nounced that he would turn over the office to May for the three-weeks term as soon as he could get receipts of set- tlement from the State and City Treas- urers and the treasurer of the Board of Education. He said he would not run for Mayor. and added that he had never intended to seek that office for him- self. Revenues of the Office. The Court's decision is that May was antitled to the office from the time of is appointment in December. This would seem to imply that he is also ‘ntitled to the revenues of the office, ind that would mean that May would eceive $10,000, the amount fixed by law is the maximum of commissions from ‘he collections of the office, the greater part of which‘ have been made since the ._ppointment. But Koeln said he did not see where May would get the money. Koeln said he had turned in the revenue and some 120,000 of excess commissions to the city and State treasurtes and the Board of Education: had-paid his office force and collected his own salary of $10,00v. Nothing is left for May to levy upon, ne declared, and the only.§moaney-at, which May will have a chance will be the collections for the rest of February and the first three days of March. The ‘commissions from these amounts, Koeln said, will not do much more than pay the office force. Klected Collector in 1913. Koeln was elected Collector in 1913, on the ticket with Mayor Kiel, and for a term ending next April. Last year, the Efficiency Board attempted to ex- tend its regulations to the appointments of the Collector’s office, and Koeln took the ground that he was a State official. and was not subject to the Board. This raised the question whether Koeln had been legally elected at a strictly munici pal election, and Koeln’s lawyers held that he had been illegally elected and that the November election was the proper time. So Koeln got his name put on the bal- lot Jast November and got a majority ot the votes then cast. He thought himself entitled to hold over, but Gov. Major saw an opening, and appointed May, after May had resigned from the Elec. tion Board. The matter was taken before the Su- preme Court in the form of a quo war- ranto suit, filed by the Attorney-Gener- al's office, for the ousting of Koeln. May’s eligibility for this appointment, or for any appointment, has been ques- troned. The law provides that a mem- ber of the Election Board shall not be eligible for elective or appointive office, during the term for which he was ap- pointed to the board, regardless of the fact of his resignation. This law once kept A. C. Maroney from taking the of- fice of Circuit Judge, to which Gov. Folk appointed him. The Court’s decision was written by Judge Williams, and Judges Graves, Walker, Faris and Blair concurring, and Judge Bond concurring in the conclu- sion. while Judge Woodson dissented. The important fact established by the decision was that the collectorship is a State office. Hence, it is held, Koel4 was not legally elected in the 1913 mu- nicipal election, but was legally elected last November. It was suggested by lawyers that Koeln would be legally liable on his bond for any Claim which May might have for his salary in the period for which the Court holds that he was en- titled. to the office of Collector.

PURTS TO NATIONS FGnTINGU-BOATS ~ —_ _— _— Senator Saulsbury Ofters Meas- ure Designed to Assist Sup- pression of Ruthless War. WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.—A bill direct- ed against ruthless submarine warfare and proposing to open the ports, har- bors and waters of the United States in time of war to warships or vessels of belligerents against whom such warfare is waged, was introduced today by Sen- ator Saulsbury of Delaware, President pro tempore of the Senate and a member of the Foreign Relatiors Committee. At his request it was referred to the com- mittee. The bill is entitled. ‘An act to discour- age the violaticn of international law upon the high seas.’’ Mizht Prevent War Declaration. “This measure,’’ said Senator Sauls- hury, ‘‘may enable the Government, without a declaration of war, to assist in preventing violation of international rights at sea, by giving assistance to (those engaged in abating unrecognized and unwarranted rystems of warfare. It is a step that may be effective in the present international crisis without a declaration of war on our part.”’ Other Senators pointed out that the bill would permit the United States to sive aid to the ehtente alleis as long as* the German submarine campaign is maintained, without ary further action by Congress giving to the president au- thority to use armed furces of the na- tion to protect American seamen anid property on the seas.

FISKE SAYS “ TORPEDO PLANE” COULD DEFEND COAST OF U. S. Rear Admiral Assertsa They Make $20,000 Airplane Match for $20,- 000,000 Battle Cruiser. NEW YORK, Feb. 13.—America would be safe from invasion through the use of the “torpedo plane,” Rear Admiral Bradley A. Fiske, U. S. N., retired, de- clared in an address at the Pan-Amer- ican Aeronautical Exposition last night. It is a scheme whereby it is claimed that the Whitehead terpedo may be launched from an airplane as effectively as from a destroyer. The ‘“‘torpedo plane’ under favorable conditions, Admiral Fiske said, would make a $20,000 airplane a worthy match for a $20,000,000 battle cruiser. He added that he had received private information from Europe which had been verified from a wholly different source, that about a year ago a British naval aviator made four flights over the land into the Sea of Marmora in an aeroplane, under which a Whitehead torpedo was secured and sank four 'Turkish vessels 12,000-T0N BRITTON STEAMER SUNK; PART UF HER GREW LANDED Afric, White Star Vessel, Destroyed: by Submarine—One Report Says 17 Men Are Missing.

British Said to Guard a 200-Mile Sea Lane. ° NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-—A shaped sea lane of armed patrol ships which extends 300 miles from the Brit- ish Isles westward, has been estab- lished by the British Admiralty, accord- ing to passengers arriving here on the Cunard Line steams).ip Andania. Light cruisers, patrol boats’ and armed trawl- ers literally lined the course taken by the Andania from Fastnet until she was safely out of the war zones, it was said.

The statement says immunity ceased in reespect to the Atlantic and English Channel zones on the night of Feb. 13, for the North Sea zone on Feb. 6 and for the Mediterranean sone on Feb. 10. It continues: “From now on, therefore, in all pro- hibited zones the warning which has been issued is in full force and ship- ping can no longer expect individua! warning. Vessels which enter the prvo- hibited areas do so with a full know!- edge of the dangers threatening them and their crews. “It is expressly stated that all news spread from enemy sourcés about any torpedoing of neutral ships without pre- vious warning before the dates men- tioned for the various prohibited areas is incorrect. ‘The periods of grace mentioned were also in force for enemy pagsenger ves- sels, because it was posgibie that they ¢ were carrying neutral passengers wo, were perhaps ignorant of the new biock - ade regulations.”’ Amerienn Aboard Saxonian Weunded When It Was Sunk. - QUEENSTOWN, Feb. 13.—Of the three American firemen who were aboard the British steamship Saxonian when she was shelled, German submarine last Wednesday, one of them, James Weygard, was wounded by a shell splinter and is now in the hoz- pital here.

The cable might have been cut by a boat anchored over it, but in that case it is likely that more than one would have been severed, as at this point seven lie close together. The damaged cable's other end is at Waterville, Ireland, whence messages are forwarded to England and France.

The dis- tance covered in the advance varied from SW vards on our right to 200 yards en our left.” — Central Vowers Reconstruct Roads and Bridges in Rumapia. BERLIN, Feb. 15,.by wireless to Say- ville.—The pause in tho fighting caused by extreme cold and violent snowstorms along the Rumanian front has given the troops of the central Powers an oppor- tunity to repair the bad roads in Ru- mania and to reconstruct bridges ani railroads, says the Overseas News Agency. The railroad traffic- there is again in full swing on almost all lines. Refu- gees are being transported back to their villages and extensive measures have been taken to start planting in the spring, and factories are being reopened. Steps also are béing taken to increase the number of hospitals. At Buzeu, where there were three Rumanian hos- pitals, containing altogether 600 beds, there are 11 hospitals, with 2469 beds. When the troops of the central Pow- ers entered Fokshani it contained only one hospital, with 250 beds, and was in an intolerable condition. The number of beds there naw has been increased to 2500, -some of’ which are in schools and other public buildings. Each of these is equipped with modern sanitary appliagges. . fhe, munjcipal hospitals are administered by German surgeons and provided with German =miaterial and medicine. The municipal bathing establishmert at Fokshani, which was left in an aban. foned condition, has been completely re- stored. Special hospitals for the treat- ment of eye and ear cases are under construction and laboratories for bacte- riological examinations and use of Roentgen rays already are in operation In this work the Rumanian Red Cross, which was organized after the German pattern, is assisting.

JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. ~The House Ways and Means Committee ves- terday afternoon voted to report favor- ably the anti-trading stamp bill. The Sen- dte’ Committee last week took similar action. The bill onmiginally provided a tax of 5 per cent on the gross business of any merchant giving trading stamps with purchases. The Senate committee reduced this to 1 per cent and the House committee to 2 per cent. Advocates of the bill say merchants cannot afford to pay the tax and it would abolish the trading stamp busi- ness in Missouri. They say the tax would cost one large department store in St. Louis $120,000 a vear, even at 1 per cent. DAY IN CONGRESS WASHINGTON, Feb. 13. SENATE, Met at il a. m.

NVCLUNG HAS MADE NO PRISON REPORT FOR LAST 2 YEARS Se New Board of Inspectors With- out Data for Statement to Legislature. a By «a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 13.—Members of the Legislature are asking today if an effort is being made to suppress or withhold from the Legislature the bien- nial financial reports for ‘the peniten- tiary and the office of the State Au- ditor. The law provides that these re- ports shall be made to each session of the Legislature. Though committees on appropriations, revenues and retrenchment are working overtime to remove the $2,000,000 deficit in the State treasury, including a peni- tentiary deficit of several hundred thou- sand dollars, the exact amount of which is unknown, the Post-Dispatch learned today that no member of the Board of Prison Inspectors has an item of data for, such a feport, and that umless the copy for the report reaches the State Printer at once it will be a physical im- possibility to get it printed before the Legislature adjourns. Inquiry Promised. When the matter today was brought to the attention of Attorney-General Mc- Allister, Auditor Hackman afd Treas- urer Middlekamp, comprising the prison ooard, all professed ignorance of the re- port and said they had seen nothing ct it. McAllister and Middlekamp said they would investigate the matter at once, McAllister said he believed the retir- ing warden and prison board should make the report. Middlekamp was of the same opinion. John T. Barker, who was a member of the old board as Attorney-General, said he supposed that Deal and former Au- ditor Gordon, who acted as president and secretary, respectively, of the old hoard, had prepared the report. He said thev prepared the report two years age. Deal is at his home in Charleston.

That It Marked Sever- Between Two Great BERLIN, dam and London, toric moment could possibly have been more pictorially platitudinous than the final curtain that fell at 8:10 yesterday evening on the long diplomat- ic drama which, for over two years, I have been watching from the wings. Scenically, Mr. Gerard might just as well have been leaving for his favorite winter resort in the Bavarian highlands. , Super and audience alike, to be sure, j realize they are figuring in the outward. and visible sign of the complete, sud- ren and violent rupture of a century- long friendship between two great na- tions, but only the innermost insiders get: the full psychological flavor, the spinal thrill, the almost Strindbergian irony and symbolism of the last act of this long ‘“‘tragedy of errors.’ The setting is gloomily-drab—the dim- ly lighted platform of the dingy old Anhalter Bahnhof. At the left the Am- bassadorial special, an ordinary Ger- man express train, consisting of baggage car, diner, three first and second class coaches, and lastly a ‘“‘salonwagen,” being the German idea of a parlor var. At the right the bare, red brick sta- tion with three doors opening into the *‘fuerstenzimer,’’ red carpeted and sparsely furnished with dark red bro- caded chairs and settees—the state apartment, reserved for arriving and de- parting Kings, Princes and diplomats. Two Cordons of Police, The police arrangements are perfect. Plain clothes men nostentatiously hover, at every vantage point about the cold, barn-like station. No one is per mitted to slip througn the barrier who cannot show an official pass, and there is further protective second cordon of polite Prussian policemen to be run be- fore you reach the embassy special. The 150-odd Americans who are going out with the Ambassador filter through long before leaving time, all luggage laden, all taking no chances about miss- ing the train, and all relieved after the strain of suspense. Many are obviously glad to be making their getaway; others show various shadings of jrdifference; but there are also these who consider the moment one of the saddest climaxes of their life. The small permitted audience, armed with special Foreign Office passes—few- er than 100 survivors of Berlin’s Ameri- can colony, and the five American cor- respondents who are taking more or less long chances and sticking to their posts to the last—mingle with the principal actors and supers for half an hour be- fore train time. The parting platform scene is that of an informal. open-air nocturnal] reception.

A German friend thrusts a bunch of li:ecs into Mrs. Gerard’s over-full arms, ind she laughingly has to decline further floral Offering, which also have been neaped in the parlor of the special car. The Ambassador and Mrs. Gerard con- tinue for half an hour as the center of an animated and constantly changing group. Both smile amiably and chat affably with all comers, who include the short, stout, goateed, soberly jolly Span- ish Ambassador, Don Polo y Barnabe, now guardian angel of the remaining Americans and American interests; the Dutch Minister, Dr. Throdokis. German Officials on Hand. Of official German personages on deck for the conventionally correct and polite parting one notes Count Montgelas, the American specialist of the Foreign Of- fice, and Dr. Metical of its intelligence division. Higher officers, under the circum- stances, were not expected. Two Ger- man officers in field gray, Baron von Wachenfeld and Maj. von Handeln, who are to act as an eseort of honor to the Swiss border, are courteously solicitous for the personal comfort of their dis- tinguished charges. In these last minutes of the last act the conversation is strictly of drawing room character, only much censored, and the action is most undramatically fea- tureless but for the psychological under- current. The interest all lies in what one does not say; the soul-searching drama is go- ing on under the polite, smiling mask, in the hearts and minds of these char- atters playing history. The Ambassador does not talk shop. He chats pleasantly about the weather, about hunting, about food, about his itinerary—about everything except pol- itics—and no one is \so indiscreet as to ask him anything pertinent; only such safe themes as that he had ar- ranged to have the hunting continued on his game preserve near Berlin until the lease expired, and that the bag would be distributed among his per- sonal friends in Berlin, that he had sold his two saddle horses; that he had sold his automobile; that he had di- vided what was left of the tons of food which he brought back from America among the needy neutral diplomats here. Five minutes before train time a deep gong sounds. The inevitable “All aboard!’’ sounds. There its a last round of handshaking: polite platitudes arv exchanged: there is hardly any betray- al of emotion, certainly no expression of hard feelings; at the most some ex- pression of purely personal friendship respondent there is a last “Good | from Mr. Gerard; a smiling “Au re from Mrs. Gerard. Special Agent Jackson. who has ne splendid work for the English prisoners in Germany and who had spent much of his diplomatic career in Berlin, genu- inely regrets another humanitarian oc- cupation gone. First Secretary Joreph Grew, too, feels the gripping tenseness of the moment and has genuine regrets at breaking several iong ties here. He charges the American correspondcnts re- maining here to do their now high and patriotic duty as Americans to the most, since they are now the maining means of direct communication between the two countries. I speak with the departing naval at- tache, Commander Gerhardi, about the initial success of the unlimited sub- marine warfare. ate ‘Will they be able to keep it up after the first shock of surprise, and if they do, how long will it be before something happens” They certainly succeeded in breaking with America,”’ is his train of thought. Cerrespondents Who Left. Lastly you say good-by to the Ameri- can correspondents, with some of whom vou have shared the perils of the front. Those leaving are Carl W. Ackerman of the United Press: Philip M. Powers of the Associated Press; Dreher of the Associated Press; | special observer of the New York Times, who had been here just long enough to get caught in the last crisis; and Mewn- ken of the Baltimore Sun, the happiest man on the train. Menken had vigited the German front Oscar King Dayvts, . on the Divina in the latter part of Jan- | uary, and under the ruling of the Geh- eral Staff could not leave Germany un- til eight weeks had elapsed. “On repre- sentations made by the American cor- respondents remaining here, the Ger- man military authorities showed a triendly spirit and waved their ralirg in Menken’s case. Correspondents who > had wives and families were also Det. mitted to take them along. On schedule time the fateful gone sounded for the last time. The Am- bassador and Mrs. Gerard, framed in the window of the drawing room ‘car, and stifl smiling, leaned out for the last time, clasped outstretched hands and the special pulled slowly out amid a loyal cheer from the small band of Amer- icans left behind. Handkerchiefs fluttered: officials stood with bared hedds and ex- pressionless faces, the German officers at salute as the ambassadorial car passed. After a last look at the twink- ling ambassadorial tall lights, the heavy- hearted survivors turned away. sorry show was over, and no incident oft any kind marred it. The passing of Gerard was anything but a news sensation or even a feature here. They do things differently in Ger-~ many, and I recall having seen onty three German reporters onthe job as the embassy special left.

GERMANS ORDER EXIT Control of Commission’s Relief Work to Be Transferred to Another Neutral Body. NEW YORK, Feb. 13.—More than 10,- 000,000 persons who have been fed through the efforts of the American Commission for Relief in Belgium will suffer no immediate hardship from the withdrawal of the American commis- sion from participation in this work in Belgium and Northern France caused by the German authorities. Upon his rerurn from Boston today, Herbert O. Hoover, chairman of the commission, took up plang already un- der way for transferring control of this relief to another neutral organization. Hoover said that six weeks’ supply of food valued at $25,000,000 had been stored in warehouses in the various districts where the relief commission had been active. Belgian officials who have been in charge of this food will be au- thorized to administer its distribution until plans for the reorganization of the work can be put into effect. There is no doubt in the minds of Hoover and his assistants that such plans can be worked out successfully and the relief continued without inter- ruption, provided the Germans do not interfere. The American commission barred from Belgium and Northern’ France will continue its activities toward ob- taining funds and will co-operate with the new organization formed to dis- tribute supplies. Notification, that American citizens eould no longer occupy positions in con- nection with the relief commission in the occupied territories of France and Belgium came from Baron von der Lancken, Civil Governor of Brussels. After consultation with Hoover, the London directors instructed Warren C. Gregory, director in Brussels, to tell the German authorities that the Amer- icans would officially withdraw from the work in the occupied districts. All of Gregory’s men will leave Bel- zium: immediately except a few wh»? remain to close the commission’s af- fairs and see that there is no inter- ruption in the service pending its re- organization. Origin of Commission Work. The American Commission for Relief in Belgium was the outgrowth of an American commission formed in Lon- don ati the outbreak of the war which aided stranded American tcurists to reach their homes from Paris and Lon- don. Herbert C. Hoover was the prime mover in both organizations. Contributions from both neutrals and belligerents have supported the commis- sion, which has chartered ships to take foodstuffs and other supplies to Belgium for, distribution through American citi- zens to the needy persons in Belgium and Northern France. More than 10,000,- 000 persons were daily dependent upon the commission, which expended about $18,000,000 a month for their relief. watietes Notice That Americans Will Vithdraw From Relief Work. models, with newest leather Louis heels—also low heel En- glish Walkers—values that are seldom seen today even at $4.

LONDON Feb. 13.—The American Commission for Relief in Belgium has officially notified the German authori- ties that the Americans will withdraw from participation in the relief work in Belgium and Northern France. This step was taken in reply to an order from the German authorities that Americans must withdraw from the provinces of Belgium and Northern France, leaving only a few of their representatives, headed by Brand Whit- lock, American Minister to Belgium, in Brussels. The action of the commission is explained in the following statement, which was given to the Associated Press by directors of the commission in London: Commission’s Statement. ‘‘We were advised Feb. 12 by Director Warren O. Gregory from Brussels that Baron von der Lancken (civil Governor of Brussels) had notified him that Amer- ican citizéns could no longer occupy po- ,sitions in connection with the commis- sion in the occupied territories of France and Belgum, but that a few Americans, among them Brand Whitlock, might re- side in Brussels and exercise generaj supervision over the work. Mr. Whit- lock, however, was to have no diplo- matic standing. Further, automobiles and other means of communication would be denied Americans. “After earnest consideration with Ambassador Page, the directors of the commission in London, acting in ac- cord with Herbert C, Hoover, chair- man of the commission, instructed Greg- ory: to inform the German authorities that in view of their order that the Americans could no longer exercise‘! their functions in the occupied terri- tories and that as under these condi- tions the American members of the commission could no longer carry out their responsibilities and undertakings to other interested Governments and fulfill their duties toward the peoples {}of Belgium and Northern France, the Americans would officially withdraw from participation in the work of relief | in the occupled districts. “Gregory was advised to arrange for all his men to leave Belgium tmmediate- ly, except a few who are to close the commission's affairs and take steps to see that there be no interruption In the service pending the reorganization of the work.’’ Beve "ith Kalter Aufschnitt.

Humboldt Building, Grand and Washington For every purpose: jo VeENCIT 17 Black Degrees—2 Copying. | By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch, JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 12.-—A elash between conflicting interests on the penitentiary reform bill, one favoring it and the other fighting to defeat it outright or by amendments striking at the heart of it, is predicted when the bill’comes up in the House today as a special order for engrossment. It has been known for several days that the influences which have been fighting to restore legally the contract system at the prison virtually have abandoned hope of carrying through their bill, and that they are devoting at- tention to efforts to so amend the re- form measure as to make it practically unworkable. A conference was held in Gov, Gard- ner’s office late yesterday afternoon, by the Governor, Senator Casey of Kansas City, Representative Frank H. Farris, Democratic floor leader in the House, and Representative W. K. James of Andrew County and Floyd 8S. Tuggle of Davies County. Senator Casey and Representative James are authors of the penitentiary reform bill. éRepresentative Tuggle, in the last Legislature, was the leader of the forces which sought to prolong the contract system three years. As chairman of the House Appropria- tions Committee, he sent letters to the heads of the State eleemosynary and educational institutions, telling them the eppropriations for their’ institutions would be reduced if the contract system was abolished. The letters brought many representatives to Jefferson City to aid Tuggle. Farris at Conference. Farris joined yesterday with Tuggle in urging the Governor, Casey and James to accept amendments to take the control of the prison out of the hands of the Prison Board, provided for in the bill, and place it in the hands of the Warden. Neither the Governor nor either of the authors of the Diil wes impressed by the arguments ad.- vanced, and Tuggle, it is expected, will. offer his amendments when the Dill comes before the House. The authors of the bill, who have the backing of the administration, insist that it will be engrossed without mate- rial chenges. Representative Farris ro- fused to express an opinion as to the probabie action of the House. If Far- ris fights the bill, it will mark his first break with the administration. Opponents of prison reform started to support a bill prepared by Senator Sam B. Cook of Jefferson City, president of a trust company in which three prison factory contractors are _ stockhoiders and directors. restoring the contract sys- tem. Almost no support could be ob- tained for the measure. Plans of the Opposition. The plan of opposition was changed to a movement to defeat the provision of the bill creating a Prison Board of three Democrats and two Republicans, to have complete charge of the prison, including the appointment of the War- den and the selection of all, employes. The plan was to leave the present board, consisting of the Attorney-General, State Auditor and State Treasurer, in charge of the prison. Such an amendment to the bill virtual.- ly would kill it, as none of these officers has time from other duties to maintain a proper supervision of the penitentiary. This movement did not meet with much approval, and the plan was changed to take from the board all power cf nam- ing employes and give to the Warden sole control of employes, food and dis- cinline. Tuggles’ amendments, whica up to this time have the approval of Farris, seek to accomplish these pur- poses. Control in a Board. The bill, as it goes before the House today, places every detail of prison control in the hands of a board and makes the Warden subservient to the board. If the arrangements are adopted. the Warden virtually will be in com- plete charge of the prison. The State Prison Board, under the bill as drawn, also would have charge of the reformatory at Boonville, the Industrial Home for Girls at Chillicothe and the Industrial Home for Negro Girls at Tipton, and would take over the du- ties of the State Board of Pardons and Paroles. FUNERAL FOR PRIEST THURSDAY Titineis Pastor Forty-One Vears tn One Parish. The funeral of the Rev. Father Loh- mann, for 41 years pastor of St. Francis Catholic Church at Aviston, Tll., will be conducted Thursday morning at tha church by the Right Rev.

As we announced in the morning papers, we will. tomorrow, launch aé_ series of sales to continue un- til the end of the month. Sales built upon and conducted along different lines than heretofore, our aim being to turn two ordinarily dull weeks into weeks of activity. About the middle of February, usually, busi- ness in Women’s new Spring apparel is not very ‘‘swift’’—at least not as much as we are satisfied with. Winter garments are all cleared out, and the majority of women, with the excep- tion of those who go to the southern resorts, are inclined to wait a few weeks. There is no reason for this, as far as we can see—unless it be from habit—or that they con. fine their buying to house furnishing, white goods, linens, ete.—but the fact remains, that is what most of them do, and again many of the ordinary stores have but little to offer this early, although we are not one of those. So this year we decided on a different campaign —we decided to force business, by offeriny values that would do i‘. We have always con- fended that merchandise in our line, if it is right in style and quality, and priced right, would be just as attractive, to the prospective buyer, in February as in March and April. With this idea and pur. pose in mind, we went to severa] manufacturers. and found them ready to co-operate with us, with the same object in view—to turn a tempo- rary dull period with them into one of activ- ity and big business. We secured unusual price concessions — ranging from % to WY off the regular prices. Our pur- chases were large,. and include; New Spring Dresses, Spring Suits, Coats, Blouses, Skirts.

BERNE, Feb. 13.—Americans ‘who arrived here from Germany with Am- bassador Gerard are congratulating themselves on having escaped further wrestling with Germany’s food problem. Butchers’ windows, well stoclHed with assorted meats, such as are seen here, are an unwonted sight in Berlin. Meat is now so scarce in the German capital that it is never hung in windows to attract buyers, but is speedily dis- tributed without advertising. Customers keep in close touch with the butcher, so as to know when the next meager supply will be on sale, Practically all meat is sold on a card entitling each person to half a pound weekly, but dishes made of kidneys, lungs and.other scraps can be bought in restaurants without a card. Game and poultry are exempt from tbe card system and command extraordinary prices, Pork and Mutton at $1. The maximum prices for pork and mutton range from 60 to 70 cents, but a dollar more is paid at back doors. De- spite Germany’s genius for organization, much surreptitious dealing prevails. Even German officials, usually models for strictest obedience to the laws, give hungry children the advantage of a loose interpretation of them, and do not put awkward questions. The rich, of course. suffer compara- tively little. They are still able to buy high-priced poultry or fish. Turkeys, geese and chickens are still displayed in poulterers’ windows and bear tabs anncuncing that they can be purchased at from $1.30 to $1.60 a pound. Cases have been reported of a fat goose sell- ing for more than $30. Lhe poorer persons, especially in Ber- lin, are undoubtedly suffering from him- ger, as their food is confined mainly to bread, potatoes, turnips and low grade marmalade. It is generally asserted that in the country districts the food prob- lem is less pressing than in the big cities, producers retaining supplies for home consumption. Few Show Marks of Underfeeding. In spite, however, of the fact that food is very scarce, one seldom sees anyone visibly showing marks of under- feeding. Some elderly persons and some anxious mothers look emaciated and reduced weight is quite natural. A com- mon question when friends meet is: “How many pounds have you lost?’’ Physicians are writing in the medical journals that children are now evidently undernourished, particularly lacking facts, yet the merry sledding throngs in the parks during the last month never suggested lack of food. The general verdict: is that the health of the people is better than before the war when overeating had almost as- sumed the character of a national be- setting sin. The big crowds at the va- riety shows laugh heartily~at topical songs turning upon the shortage of food and the prevalent issue of substitutes. Men in authority, however, recognize that Germany is confronted with a problem of growing difficulty. The next four months are regarded as especially critical, because the supply of vege- tables, except potatoes and turnips, is practically exhausted. Even sauer- Kraut cannot be bought in shops, but is only doled out by the authorities at intervals. The Berlin Government post- ed placards last week announcing that half a pound of sauerkraut was assign- able for the week on the section of the food card calling for general provisions. , Believed Supplies Will Last. The difficulties of the situation, how- ever, have not altered the confidence of the authorities that the existing sup- plies will suffice until the next crop, by careful husbanding. They admit that the situation must then be restudied on the basis of new facts. One of the most critical factors is the shortage of the 1916 potato crop, which was only two-fifths that of 1915. This shortage necessitated the prohibition of feéding potatoes to live stock, with the result that vast numbers of pigs were prematurely slaughtered. Yet as the number of pigs increased in 1916 up to September by nearly 4,000,000, the coun- try seems to have an ample meat mar- gin on the present reduced scale of con- sumption.

Men whose “genius” sorts them out from the crowd and makes them. “captains of industry” or “kings of finance,” or wins 66 honor and fame for them! in the professions, are not different from the rest of humanity. Only the know more. They are more alive to the possibilities of their work. They began where you began, or are beginning. They had no more advantages than you—perhaps Jess. | Opportunity plays no favorites—offers no ‘special privileges.” Each of us (including you) has an equal chance. Are you making the most of yours? YOU have it within yourself to be a successful man. You can make your life whatever youchoose. Youcan de- velop character, personality, power. These are to be acquired by self-educa- tion. Success, and whatever it implies, is not “psychologic,” but intensely practical. It is not hedged about by impossible con- ditions, but is within easy reach of you, anyone and everyone. Its foundation is knowledge. There are five essentials to achieve- ment in every line: Vision, Initiative, Sound Judgment, Confidence and Cour- age. And each of these qualities is in- spired and fostered by knowledge. They spring from what you know about past and present, about men and coun- tries, about invention and manufacture, about commerce and business, about art and science, about human nature in all its variations, about any particular subject or a group of allied subjects. Do you realize that the very knowledge you need to cultivate the essentials of suc- cess is found in the new Encyclopaedia Britannica, “Handy Volume” Issue. This great work, universal in its scope, has been written and published solely for the diffusion of knowledge. It presents the latest, most complete, most authori- tative summing up of all human thought and activity. It presents in the most get- at-able form an inexhaustible fund of facts and information about everything. More than 160,000 men and women in this country have already invested in this marvelous work. They include men eminent in business and finance, univer- sity and college presidents, the heads of great industrial enterprises, women who .Do you realize that you can obtain the entire first’ payment of — ying for it in small monthly installments, for a limited period, you have the use of it.

They bought it because it is, as Charles M. Schwab, the genius of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation said, “the most impor- tant and authoritative work of its kind in the world.” You ought to have it for the same reason. If you were deprived of a college education, the Britannica affords the means of acquiring a store of useful knowledge that, so far as knowledge goes, will put you on a par with the college manorwoman. A college education costs $2000 or more—over 25 times the price of the Britannica in the popular “Handy Volume” form. Only an hour or two a day given to systematic reading of the Britannica will give you the mastery of one subject after another, until you havea thorough education. Even half an hour a day will soon give you a proficiency in any line that will eventually bring success in the largest sense. — ‘Stop and think. Are you ambitious to rise above present conditions? Are you willing to invest your present spare time in your future ? If you are, the Britannica will guide you to success. It will expand your power to think and talk and do. This is success —making life more and more worth while, increasing your abilities, your influence, your income. : Buy a set of the Britannica at once.

You forget it because there are no strident tones to remind you of it. It’s. just music—the full, living, pulsating music of orchestra, harp, singer — whatever music the fancy of the moment may call for. We want you to hear this greater phonograph.

An amendment to the ‘language of the excess profits tax to clarify just what would constitute capital invested, reads as follows: ‘‘That for the purpose of this title, actual capital invested means (1) actual cash paid; (2) the actual cash value of assets other than cash at the time such assets were transferred to the corporation or partnership, and (3) paid in or earned surplus and undivided profits used or employed in the business: but does not include money or other property borrowed by the corporation or partnership whether evidenced by bonds or otherwise.”’ MERCANTILE CLUB WILL TRY TO CONTINUE ORGANIZATION Committee to Report Today on a Pian to Adjust Its Financial Difficulties. Tne Mercantile Club, at a meeting yesterday afternoon attended by 15/ members, decided to continue the or- ganization if a satisfactory way of ad- justing its financial difficulties can be found. A committee, headed by James C. Jones, an attorney, Was appointed to {orinulate a plan and report at noon today. The resignations of all the officers and directurs were offefed yesterday, but were not accepted at this time, as the annual meeting will be held in March. Pressing demand for payment of the cluh's floating debt of about $85,000 is said by the officers to have precipi- tated the financial difficulties which have deen accumulating for several years. In addition to this debt, there is a large bonded debt on the building, at Seventh and Locust strects. Membership in the club has fallen be- low what was needed to maintain it. The lMmit is 1000 members, but the club has only about 700. The members appointed on the com mittee with Jones are: E. F. Beach, O. I.. Biebinger, W. E. Bilheimer, A. C. Brown, G. W. Brown, J. S.

To the Iditor of the Post-Dispatch. I have just read with interest the article in your Jan. 6 edition headed “Third Street to Van- deventer Avenue Subway Proposed.” It is gratt- fying to know that once again this much-needed conveyance is being considered, something which would do much in the development of our city, and Mr. Schwartz deserves credit for his progres- sive proposition. It seems, however, to the writer that the subway as proposed is undesirable in many ways, for the plan does not take into con- sideration that a subway should be constructed with the view of serving the greatest number of people most conveniently. Nor does it take into consideration the future development of our city and the natural lengthening and ramification of the subway as originally constructed. When spending $8,000,000, same should be spent with the idea of benefitting the entire city, rather than any specific part. The business district of the city is now, and will be for years to come, that section lying be- tween Washington avenue and Olive street, the most populous section from which the subway will draw. Why, therefore, should the subway be byjlt under Olive street, the southern boundary of this business district, rather than in the very center of this district, or as near there as possible? If the boundary of the business district is to be selected, surely Washington avenue, with its combined re- tail and wholesale traffic, would be a more log- ical location for this conveyance. For the good of St. Louis, however, it seems that from Third to Thirteenth street this subway, if possitle, should be built under St. Charles street, which is prac- tically in the middle of.the retail district. The objection cited above would therefore be over- come and the entire business district benefitted. In addition, the subway would pass the doors of the new 20-story Statler Hotel, as well as the Jefferson Hotel. At Thirteenth and St: Charles streets the subway would turn siightly and con- tinue under the Plaza to Locust street and then upjLocust to the Lindell-Locust cut-off. Here again it would drain the rapidly developing auto- mobile section of our city, as against Olive street from Twelfth to Channing, where there is little or uo development and no need for a subway. At the Lindell-Locust cut-off, in my opinion, there should be an exit for certain Subway cars eag@ily facilitcted by the great width of the plaza at hat point. Surface tracks could be laid from Olive and Channing up Lindell to Grand, so that some Grand avenue cars from both south and north could use the subway and in this way en- able the large population of South and North 8t. Teuis to Lenefit by the subway and save much fime when going downtown or returning: first- ly, Decause they could use the subway, and seo- » would not have to change cars at Grand e@ From the Lindell-Locust cut-off the sub- way would also continue underground under Olive atreet from that point to Vandeventer avenue, or whatever point our engineers would determine upon, for the use of those living {n the West End. I am basing the above plan on a similar arrange- ment in Boston. On Boylston street, just above nt street—the most congested part of Bos- ton—there is an exit for certain cars, which from that point continue as surface cars north and south; while at the same time the subway con- tinues for those living in the West End and in Brookline. SIDNEY R. BAER. On Smoke Abatement. To the Bditor of the Post-Dispatch. I have been very much interested tn smoke abatement in recent years and I am heartily in accord with the suggestions on smoke abatement which appeared in the People’s Column, Feb. 9, 1917. The men proposed as supervising engineers are certainly the best the city of St. Loulg has at present. I wish to make a few additions to the program as outlined: ‘That two practical toller constructors be added to the men named. I would suggest Mr. John ifunter, engineer and constructor, and Robert F. "Wiseloge!, engineer and boiler designer. A)} fire- fen should be Hcensed and should quality be- core the said board, and certain rules should be 84 down as to operating and firing the boilers. fhe Installment of our strictly modern smoke- furnaces should be insisted on con- tinually. Through the elimination of al) straight- draft furnaces, in about 10 years our beloved city will be as clean and beautiful as Buenos Altres, Argentina, and millions of dollars of damage to life and property would be eliminated.

Congressmen and legisiators hav ered in grade during the last ve not been low. 20 years, but public so much that it just + INSULT ADDED TO INJURY. Germany is stil] playing American politics, but with even less success than usual. Her latest sug- gestion of a discussion of the submarine issue was so manifest a pretext for a pacifist propaganda in favor of German against American interests that it deceived nobody. The proposal to discuss submarine warfare without interfering with the ruthless and law- less submarine campaign, which is the vita! issue, was a rare piece of misguided insolence. ‘ The President’s answer was the only possible answer. The withdrawal of the proclamation of Jan. 31, the cessation of lawless submarine war- fare, with renewal of assurances, constitute the only basis upon which discussion could be ac- cepted. Germany violated her pledges and in- augurated the unrestricted assault upon neutral rights, neutral ships and neutral citizens on the seas, without discussion. She defied American warnings. To offer discussion now, not only without cessation of her lawless course, but with the proviso that it shall not be interfered with, adds insult to injury. It is a tragic farce. The handful of meddling and foolish pacifists and pro-Germans in this country .are misleading Germany into action which promotes war rather than peace. The latest announcement of the closing of all periods of grace with the warning that all ships enter the barred zone at their peril forces the is- sue defined by the President. We must abandon trade with forbidden countries, keep off the for- bidden waters or defend our rights with all the means at our command. It is a calamitous situa- tion, but our conscience is clean and our path is plain. = = — a THE HISTORICAL LINCOLN. The State of Kentucky, which was the birth- place of Abraham Lincoln, honored his birthday yesterday by observing it for the first time as a State holiday. Speakers at a celebration in Ten- nessee on the day before pictured Lincoln’s spirit as hanging over the nation in its present crisis as @ guardian angel. At thousands of places on the borderland and in the South the name of the Emancipator, which was execrated only a few brief years ago, was spoken with veneration. Even in far-away, war-torn Europe his name is often on the lips of the statesmen of today. The judgments of history are slow but certain. It is impossible to estimate the worth of a man when he is with us. The voice of adulation shrieks for supremacy over the voice of passion and there is no verdict. But the unadulatory ard dispassionate voice of time will be heard at last and its verdicts are sure. Lincoln no longer ap- pears as the leader of a great faction in a divided country but as the great, compassionate leader of all the country. In the bitter days that fol- lowed the Civil War he was the best friend the South had in the North and the South has come to realize it. == = a ‘‘SPOOFPING’’ THE COLONEL. Spoofing Col. Roosevelt has become the most popular pastime in Germany within the past few days. The comic artists and press humorists have leveled their keenest shafts at the hero of Oyster Bay. Their jests for the most part consist in an assumption of terror as to what will happen to the helmeted hosts of Hindenburg when the re- doubtable T. R. leads his proposed brigade to the charge. It is very safe for them to sit in security over there thousands of miles away and make merry in this irreverent fashion, but i. is scarcely cour- ageous. Spoofing the Colonel has long deen one of our own most popular diversions, but the spoof- er is always taking a sporting chance. Sometimes the Colonel gets riled and when he does he can move with the celerity of forked lightning and the weight of a ton of falling bricks. He may nut al- ways be exactly sure whither he is moving but he is always certain of getting somewhere with both feet. If all the Teutonic jokesters will get together in a hall in some neutral country, Switzerland say, choose their weapons, whether pistols, black-jacks or typewriters, Col. Roosevelt probably will be willing to tie his right hand behind him and meet them in a bunch. It will be the easiest thing in the world to get up an American syndicate that will pay the rent and cover all bets. Maybe this would be a simple means of settling all disputes | between us and the Kaiser. = + _ a aS An American inventor has evolved a torpedo that can “hear” more than a mile. What we want is a torpedo than can be “heard” for more than a mile. ¢+¢+¢¢— SOCIETY OF THE TRIMMED. Comes now’the Appendix Club. It is the new- est thing in clubdom. Its mission is to provide social solace for those who have been bereft of their inner trouble. It has occasional banquets and the members eat with a sang froid and aban- don which is not possible among persons with appendices. What care the members of the Ap- pendix Club? If an ache ensues it will be mere- ly an ache and no doctor will dare call it ap- pendicitis. Before the Appendix Club came those who had lost their appendices were, as one might say, de- tached. They were rather out of place in genera! society because their conversation was so ex- cessively operative. They needed a circle of their own, where they could have surgery as a perpet- ual topic and enjoy it. It was in Carlinville, Ill, that the idea first functioned. Someone in that town called to- gether all who had’ known the sorrow of sev- erance and had come to share a common vermic- ular delinquency. With all redundancies removed beforehand there was nothing to mar the pleas- ure of the occasion. The club was formed and everyone who could show a surgeon's receipt for $800 or was willing to make an affidavit was ad- mitted. There is a waiting list of those who have symp- Symptoms are not strictly necessary. old ache will do. But the appendix must go. Only those who have been trimmed are eligible. ba The central Powers are beginning to strip Ru- mania of its food supplies. Berlin doesn’t seem to be able to get out of the habit of letting Amer- ica feed its despoiled territory. == — a THE SALOON MEN’S RESOLUTION. The unwise and often impudent interference of saloonkeepers in public affairs and their solidarity in political action are believed by many to have caused quite as much of the country-wide upris- ing against them as the effects of the highballs they sell. That the denunciations of Mayor Kiel present a case in point may be indicated without expressing any concern for the influence on his political for- tunes. es Mr. Kiel is one of the most liberal-minded of St. Louis German-Americans on the issue in which the saloon trate-is most deeply interested. Saloonkeepers as individuals and as a class have of course a right, as other citizens, to entertain and express their opinion of Mr. Kiel’s course in politics. When, however, a trade body organized under the name of the Liquor Dealers’ Benevo- lent Association, stigmatizes him officially in pub- lic resolutions, other citizens are not bound to ac- cept their judgment without scrutiny of their reasons. It seems that the Mayor, exercising his privilege as a voter, expressed his personal preference for one candidate for Governor rather than another at the primary of his party. It seems also that he supported the woman’s suffrage amendment. This is the sum of his offending. The saloon- keepers are not satisfied to have a public man in harmony with them on their own issue. They de- mand agreement with them on incidental, collat- eral and even remote issues. They wish to control his action in matters that are none of their busi- ness—to do his thinking for him. Liberal-minded is an absurd term to apply to such dictation. They want, not a liberal-minded man, but a creature. It is to the credit of Ameri- can public men that they are finding such coer- cion increasingly irksome and are refusing to sub- mit to it. La ww LABOR’S WISE RESTRAINT. : The Central Trades and Labor Union in refus- ing to endorse a sweeping resolution of protest against the entrance of the United States into war for any cause acted with a prudence that was to be expected. It refused to bind itself by generali- ties. A majority of its members rightly held that a declaration of war is sometimes righteous. The resolution was reserved for further consideration and revision. The laboring men of the country do not want war. Neither do the millions of other Americans who compose the maspf of our citizenship. It may be doubted that the fq -called capitalistic classes want it, hysterical showts of habitual agitators to the contrary notwithstanding. The existing government has erred, if it has erred at all, on the side of pacifism instead of on the side of militarism. Never has a great nation labored with more uniform determination to prevent war ,™ wr ‘than our country has in the past two years. The normal American citizen, however, has no confusion in his mind as to the point where pacif- ism becomes poltroonery. This is true of the statesman at Washington, the professional man in his office and the machinist at his lathe. War, if it comes, will come because the people demand it and not because jingoes of any class demand it. The laboring men do well to keep their decision unpledged until the time for decision may come. > Li di _— _. i 2 The Rev. Jenkin Lloyd Jones says Lincoln was forced into war by his militaristic Cabinet. This does not agree with Lincoln’s own version of the matter, given in his second inaugural. He said: “One party was willing to make war rather than to let the nation survive, and the other party was willing to accept war rather than to let the na- tion perish—and the war came.” == * — a CITIZENSHIP IS VALUED NOw. The St. Louis applications for first citizenship papers on Saturday numbered 81 at the close of the office at 1 p.m. This made the total applica- tions of the sort for the week 599. In the eight states that make reports to St. Louis on natural- ization activities, aliens in like unprecedented numbers are taking the preliminaries to citizen- ship. The great majority of those applying are sub- jects of the central Powers and many of them have been residents of the country for consider- able periods. Commendation for thelr belated de- sire to identify themselves more closely with the privileges and duties of Americans is not to be de- nied even though influenced in most cases by pos- sible inconvenience and property loss in the event of war. Whose fault is it that appreciation of the value of citizenship has come to them only after long delay? Employers are now co-operating in the effort to reduce the number of unnaturalized aliens among their men. Effort on their part should not be confined to times when the pros- pective handicap on alien employes in case of war presents a strong materia] incentive. Men are made better employes by participation in the civic interests of the country in which they have their homes. Not only to inspire in their men a desire for such participation, but to pre- pare them worthily for citizenship duties is a pa- triotic duty of employers in time of peace as well as in times of threatea'ng aspect. 4ae THE TRADING STAMP BILL. The only public issue we have been able to find in the bill to prohibit trading stamps ifs that of wasting the State Legislature’s time and labor, which ought to be expended on other bills of importance to the public. No convincing evidence of fraud or other wrong- doing in the use of trading stamps as a means of giving discounts on cash purchases has been sub- mitted. We see no reason for State interference. The bill is the outgrowth of a wrangle between merchants over methods of doing business and is out of place on a legislative calendar. Since public hearings have developed no good reason for legislative action a- motion to deposit toms and are saving up the $300 initiation fee. | x the bill in the waste basket is in order. ‘ Any little wetter SUIT est ge re are ey -é ty oe EE ae toa tk > eg Rat EES B LE! = oy ae fe Ree pee EE A ah ee iiee .7 ae teh: ¢ et “G+ os ehohnd a a «?

ASHION follow the flag and the F German dream of world power car- ‘ried with it the necessity of impos- ing upon conquered peoples a German world fashion. Rome subjugated the world and the ladies of Egypt began to dress like their sisters on the Tiber. France, through the conquests of Louis XIV and Napole- on, became the dictator of modern dress. After the Russo-Japanese War she rec- onciled the warring fashions of the bei- ligerents by putting her devotees intu Russian blouses and kimono sleeves. This highly interesting theory of dress is developed by Norbert Stern in a pam- phiet called “‘‘World Politics of World Fashion in the German War,’ which appears in translation in the Literary Digest. The new German philosopher of clothes predicts the triumphant marc of the Teutonic mode to Paris itse'f. has decided that the coming world fash- ion shall embody the best features of the Kaiser’s uniform, but as the war has brought “the beautiful of Islam close to Austria and Germany, the Turk, too, shall be represented.”’ Bright colors will be forbidden and thie utmost simplicity of line prescribed, he says, because the scepter of fashion must pass from the frivolous hands of the French woman into the more solid grasp of the German matron. Dominating French Fashions Influenced Diplomacy. ‘“Krance, by dominating and Captivat ing the fair sex all over the world,’ writes Dr. Stern, “knew how to worm herself into the most intimate secrets of foreizn statesmanship and diplomacy. Let us not deceive ourselves; it will be no easy task to dislodge our neighbor from her solid position in the world’s boudoirs. “It is a historical and, after all, quite natural fact that world fashions can only be started from the centers of world powers. Nations cannot so easily be forced to dress as others tel] them to do. Rome had to become the mistress of the Mediterranean before the ladies on the Nile, Rhine and Seine wore the same dresses as their sisters on the Tiber. And France herself had to wait until her glorious Roi Soleil, Louis XIV. on his victorious return from the Conti- He Hlatve EAT AT! ENIOY IT NO INDIGESTION OR STOMACH DISTRESS Never any sour, gassy or acid stomach, heartburn or dyspepsia. ‘“‘Pape’s Diapepsin’’ makes weak stomachs strong and healthy at once. You don’t know what upset vour stomach—which portion of the fooa did the damage—do you? Well don’t bother. If your stomach is in a re- volt; if sick, gassy and upsct, and what you just ate has fermented and turned sour; head dizzy and aches: belch gases and acids and eructaie undigested food; breath foul, tongue coated—just take a little Pape’s Dia- pepsin to neutralize acidity and in five minutes you wonder what be- came of the indigestion and distress. Millions of men and women today know that it is needless to have dys- pepsia. A little Diapepsin occasion- ally keeps the stomach sweetened, and they eat their favorite foods without fear. If your stomach doesn’t take care of your liberal limit without rebel- lion; if your food is a damage in- stead of a help, remember the quick- est, surest, most harmless antacid is Pape’s Diapepsin, which costs only fifty cents for a large case at drug stores. It’s truly wonderful—it stops food souring and sets things straight, so gently and easily, that it is really astonishing. Your stomach will di- gest your meals if vou keep acids neutralized.—ADV, ' | H } VURKISH ij “TROUSERS / BULGARIAN - TURK WAR INTRODUCED TRE BLOUSE S THE COMING WORLD FASHION ACCORDING TO OR. NORBERT STERN ee nent’s battlefields;-ltaid fashion’s scepter upon her lap. Europe, conquered by Irance, had assume the French livery. “It was by to no means a mere coinci- that the final conquest of the French tailor and milltiner (1675) was almost immediately (1677) followed by the acceptance, at the Congress of Nimo- gusn, of French as the universal lan- guage of polite European society. The diplomats and statesmen of all coun- tries had to dress in French their thoughts as well as their bodies. “We had heretofore silently and hum- bly taken the French yoke upon us. But this war must emancipate us.”’ Please do not entertain for a moment dence the idea that Dr. Norbert Stern is not profoundly in earnest. So serious is his desire to proclaim to a subject universe a German world mode that in discuss- ing the possibilityof its rejection by the German people themselves he calls upon the mailed fist to enforce the decree. “The state will have to interfere should an easy going, thoughtless peo- ple not take this lesson to heart,’ he remarks ominously. Though Dr. Stern cites many histor- ical instances tO prove that the world dominion of French fashion was -the outcome of military conquest, he does not explain how France, beaten to her knees in 1871, still continued to rule the world of clothes; and the first thing a German wife asked her husband, re- turned victorious from the war was, ‘What are they wearing in Paris’’”’ Notwithstanding Dr. Stern’s ingenious ee — Dance Halls of Bird Land Australian Bower Bird “HERE are several species of bower ] birds in Australia, chief among them the Satin and the Newton. The Satin bower bird is the best known. When the bowers were first discovered it was supposed that they were play- houses built by the native children; but as a matter of fact, they are the dance halls of birdland. The nests are built in the trees and have no connection wiftn the playhouses. The male birds build these latter and gather every bright and shining object they can find to adorn’ the entrance to the bower. When it is completed, according to one who has watched them, little “at homes’ are given daily, at which the males meet Builds Plavhouse and Garden. and pay court to their lady loves, now bowing and scraping, now playing hide and seek through the bower, and now doing an absurdly dignified dance for their edification. Newton’s bower bird decorates its bower with fresh flowers every day, and if a visiting male bird wants a fight all he has to do is to disturb one of these flowers. The mas- ter of the bower proceeds with the pain- fu! duty of teaching hirh how to behave in company, while the remainder of the party raise a great racket, but never interfere. A naturalist studying them disarranged one of their flowers, but each time he did it the bower master rearranged it with great care. , nation’s ability fire and sword.

French and Russian Bits. “A Miracle of St. Anthony,” by Maé. terlinck, showed the saint restoring to life a rich woman who had died, and whose heirs by no means welcomed the miracle. Anton Tchekhov's ‘‘The Bear,”’ a typically Russian sketch, was largely a tirade against women by a man who proclaimed that “I have abandoned 12 women, and 9 have abandoned me.’ It was enjoyable, though it is by no means the best of this author's short plays. Either “The Proposal” or ‘“‘The Wea- ding’’ is much funnier. The four plays which have been men.- tioned were preceded by Rose Pastor Stokes’ ‘‘In April,’’ a dreary and impos- sibly commonplace affair, with no merit save its brevity. It served, however, to show that the most pleasing of players can do nothing without a suitable play. Some. of the most pleasing of the actors were Ruby Beatrice Craven as Cleopatra; Albert R. Tilburne as Shak. speare and as the doctor in the mitacle play; Ralph Roeder as Blessed St. An. thony; Rosalie Mathieu as Immortality, a beautiful impersenation;: Dana Des- boro as Helen; Maxwell Parry as Méne- laus, and Charlies Meredith as Paris and as ‘“‘the bear.’’ Digby Bell at Columbia in a Laugh. , able Piayiet. Digby Bell, whose age has neither stiffened his legs ncr Culled his comedy, is the headliner at the Columbia this week in a laughable bit calied “Ming Your Business.” The piece centers about the happy life of a married cou. ple, which is unusual enough in itself to make it worth a vaudeville act. The remainder of the bill ts of more than average excellence.

By Sam Hellman HE. old stuff about silence being T golden is passe: you don't get a reputation for being wise these days simply by keeping fillies out of your mouth. If you say nothing in this era of grace the world concludes you are either a simp or that your wife has attained her objecttws—100 per cent of the joint conversation. Today a fame for wisdom is acquired by asking questions. You approach a guy with a high brow and a low neck and say careless like: ‘‘What is your opinion of the transmigration of the sub- conscious ego?” He hasn't any opinion ror have you, but it is soon bruited about that you are a metaphysicist of note which is a cross between a psychologist and a home for the incur- able insane. - When Gertie Stone got her job in no- tions at the Peerless Department store and was told to come to work the next morning at 8 o’clock she turned to- the superintendent with a simple, ‘Why?’ “Why what?” asked the superintend- ent. “Why §& o’clock?” asked. Gertie. “That’s when the store opens, that’s when all the girls come to work.”’ “Oh,” said Gertie. “Thanks. I want- ed to know, that’s all.”’ “Why do they call it notions,” quer- ied Gertie of her copartner at the counter, Maggie Holmes. “Because they sell notions here,’’ re- plied Maggie. “But why notions?’ “I guess its because they sell pianos on the third floor,”’ said Maggie wear- ily. “‘What do you care?’ “I'd like to know, that’s all. Was your hair always red?” “"No,”’ retorted Maggie. ‘‘There was a time when I didn’t have any hair at all. ‘‘How was that?’’ “Who's that thirsty friend of yours?” asked the etore manicure of Maggie a few days later. “She’s got the greatest thirst for useless information I ever heard tell of. You know what she asked me today?” “No, what?” backfired Maggie. bite.’ “She wanted to know why they call it manicuring instead of ladycuring or something else.’’ “Huh, that’s nothing. She's near me all day and she knows already what my mother had for breakfast the second day after her marriage. She's the hu- man question mark. Some day that girl is goin’ to find out something.”’ “At that,’ said the manicure, ‘“‘she’s a pretty good-looking kid.” “She's all right,’’ admitted Maggie, “outside the-what and why habit. I'm going to take her to the dance to- night.”’ ; “She'll probably want to know why they dance dances at dances.’ "Yes, I guess so—or why they don’t.” “Who's that feller that took you home last night?” asked Maggie the next morning. “I never seen him before.’’ “T met him last night for the first time,”” replied Gertie, “‘and believe me, he’s some grand feller. He works at the biggest store in town and gets $150 a month. He’s only been there for three “T'll * years and four months and he’s gone to get a raise in six months. His sister Mary keeps house for him. She’s a lit- tle hard of hearing and she only came from the country 19 months ago. She’’—— “My,” interrupted Maggie, ‘“‘is that all you know about him?” The sarcasm was lost on Gertie. “No, I found out lots of other things. You should know all about the men you go around with, shouldn't you?’ “You're right,’ assented Maggie. ‘“‘A young girl can’t be too careful these days."’ “ ‘“‘Well,”’ resumed Gertie, “he’ll be 28 years old on the fourth of next October and last summer he paid a visit to his mother in the country. She wanted to come back to the city with him, but he said, No. The city ain’t no place for an old lady what with the cars and the automobiles. But his mother’’+— “Come out of it,” broke in Maggie. ‘What about the guy. You didn’t dance with his mother, did you?” “He has the most beautiful blue eyes,” continued Gertie,®‘and he wears the kind of shoes that are gray cloth on -top and have pearl buttons. He bought them at the Hasyglide store. He had a red necktie which was a present from his aunt Tasia. My, and you eught to see the grand watch he got from his father when he was 15 years old.”’ “Is his father rich?” asked Maggie. “IT asked him that,” replied Gertie, “and he said his father was rich but lost his money in the war. He was wounded, too, in some kind of a bat- tle where the police were—he said some- thing about the bulls run.” “Never mind the old man," suggested Maggie; “how about your friend?’ ’ “His sister,"’ resumed Gertie, unmind- ful of the interruption. “He's crazy about her. He said he liked me, too.” “How do you Know? Did you ask him ?’* “Sure,” said Gertie. ‘‘There’s no use goin’ around with a feller that doesn’t like you, is there?” How about you?” asked Maggie. “I'm crazy about him. He's the grand- est”"—— “I know," broke in Maggie. “Gonna see him again tonight, I guess. What's that you got written on that card?” “That's the telephone number of his store. I promised to call him uj, this afternoon.” “From what you tell me," sald Mag- gie, “I guess he’s a pretty good guy. What's his name?” “My Gawd," exclaimed Gertie. “And do you know you have never paid me?’ 2 POST-DISPA adie j Pm WHE TAX COLLET TOR -— You: MUST PAY $317.43 ON YOUR SALARY FoR LAST Lor You You owe 4& §.0F L tas ei ON “THAT MIDDLE OF LAKE eRie- OWAS IA) THE , AND SGU HAVE “TO & SPXIAL TAY OF OWN) Tere GOLB BUTTON MOOK SOUR.

Pink Nose’s mother always put a co!- ored ribbon about her neck and sleeked her coat every morning, and then Pink Nose would sit in the barn doorway in the sun to be admired. One day another ‘kitten came to live at the barn. She was not pretty and her coat was not smooth. She was a stray kitten and had no one to keep her looking nice as Pink Nose had, so Pink Nose turned up her little pink mose at poor, gray kitten and would have nothing to say to her. One morning Pink Nose said to her mother: “I wish I had a pair of mit- tens. They would keep my toes warm in the winter, and besides my front paws would be nice and clean when I wanted to wash my face.” ’ Now, Pink Nose’s mother always got everything her kitten wished for if she could. She caught the fattest mouse in the barn always and gave it to Pina Nose, and if that did not please her, Pink Nose was given all the miik in the gaucer and her mother went without. So you see, Pink Nose was a spoiled kitten, if there ever was one, and when Pim NOSE was a white pussie. she wished for a pair of mittena, her t; mother hunted ¢bout to find them. Ard one morning Pink Nose appeared in the barn doorway dressed in a pair of pink mittens with a pink ribbon about her neck. “They just spoil that vain Pink Nose,’’ said Madame Duck, waddling through the barn on the way to the pond for her morning swim, but she stopped and looked at Pink Nose and told Mrs. Brown Hen, and she came running to see the wonderful mittens. Then the news spread all over the tarnyard that Pink Nose had a pair of mittens, and the hens and chickens and the geese and the ducks all came run- ning and waddling up to the barn door. Mr. Horse poked his nose out of his stall and stuck up his ears and opened wide his eyes when he saw Pink Nose wearing mittens. ‘Well, I never!"’ he exclaimed, “look at the kitten; she is not worth her keep around here. Gray Kitten is worth a dozen like Pink Nose.” “Moo,”" said the cow; “I agree with you. Why, I should never have any- thing in the manger to nibble on be- tween meals if it were not for Gray Kitten. The mice are so thick.” “Old Mrs. Tabbie, her mother, spends so much time caring for Pink Nose that she doés little mouse hunting these days,"’ sald Mr. Horse. “) think it ts » time we showed up tn worthlessness of Pink Nose, and I'll tell you how we will do it.’’ “I think her mother should be brought to her senses,’’ said Mme. Cow. ‘But how will it be done?’’ ‘'T'll show you,” said Mr. Horse, ‘‘Here comes Gray Kitten; now watch the fun.” Little Gray Kitten slid into the barn keeping close to the wall, and slid into the stall beside Mr. Horse, rubbing lov- ingly against his legs. ‘You keep your eye on the door where Pink Nose and her mother are sitting.”’ said Mr. Horse in a whisper, “‘and don’t you move until I tell you to.” “Could you catch a mouse with those mittens on, Pink Nose?’ asked Mr. Horse. “I don't believe she could catch one, anyway, said Mme. Cow. “Yes, I can; I caught one once,”’ said Pink Nose. “Tl don’t believe you could if one ran right In front of you,’’ said Mr. Horse. “Gray Kitten can catch any mouse that shows itself in this barn. She is a smart kitten.”’ ‘“‘Pink Nose is just as smart as Gray Kitten,” said Mrs. Tabbdie, “If a mouse came along now you would see.” “There goes one now right behind you,” said Mme. Cow. Pink Nose turned and ran after it and tapped it with her paw, but the mittens kept her from catching ![t and off scam- pered the mouse right into Mr. Horse's stall. “Grab it,” sald Mr. Horse to Gray Kit- ten. ’ “Here is your mouse, Pink Nose,” he ’ ) master will find out your kitten is not doing her part of the work around here and he will not want her, and you know what happens to kittens when they are in the way.” The next morning Pink Nose appeared in the barn without her mittens or rib- bons, and her mother set her beside a mouse hole. Every time a mouse ran out and Pink Nose did not catch it up went Mrs. Tab- bie’s paw and boxed her kitten’s ears. In a few days Pink Nose was catching her share of the mice in the barn, and Mr. Horse and Mme. Cow smiled and nodded at each other approvingly. “If it hadn’t been for us,’’ said Mr. Horse, ‘‘Pink Nose would still be wear- ing mittens; we have made a smart kit- ten out of her.’’ tcoowrtina, Joes, ce Peg ema Cr = geen TO STOP BAD COUGH SOOTHE DRY, IRRITATED THROAT WITH PARMINT SYRUP.
