THE WAR AND MARRIAGE;

observed a cynical though keenly observ

MOYEN AGE LINES
VOGUE
IT IS consoling to note that there
will be little change In the fash
tonablo silhouette for fall. The
tendency will be toward a sllgh
curve at the waist line, but not eo
decidedly so ns to warrant the name
of an hourglass figure. Skirts, too.
will be much fuller, with wide bands
of costly fur to give a bouffant ef
fect The Russian Influence and the
fur trade go hand In hand this sea
son. The modified moyen age coat and
street gown Is also a notable fea
ture of the nutumn modes. This
long-walstcd arrangement, the big
sister of the rcdlngote, has retained
Its popularity for longer than was
expected. Hence the return of the
fitted garment. Military tendencies
are still fashionable, nnd braidings
of all kinds promise to hold the
first place as a choice for tailored
suits.
Today's illustration shows a plain
but decidedly chic walking suit In
black French broadcloth. The som
bre effect of this dark costume Is
relieved to n certain extent by the
use of curly gray astrachan fur at
the collar. This, by the way, Is
like the high, closely fitted models
o much In favor during the last
Winter.
The coat nccentuates what I have
already said about the new fitted
lines. The rather decided flare at
the bottom of the coat Is a clever
method of ll'ustratlng the curved
waistline, without exaggerating It
The braid touches at the front, nnd
cuffs aro good. The skirt Is a mar
vel of tailored simplicity, rippling
slightly at the bottom nnd fitting
loosely Into the waist line, with a
stitched belt The high boots are
topped with black broadcloth to
match the Bult, a fad which prom
ises to be widely adopted In the fajl
and winter.
The Workbag
Have any of you needleworkers
been annoyed by having your fancy
work appear rough and unevenT If
so, you will appreciate a suggestion
which will prevent such a condition
If you will but remember the pre
caution next time you take any
fancy stitches.
After drawing a thread from the
skein pass It lightly between the tip
of the first nnger and the thumb to
find out which way tho twist runs.
This can easily be learned with very
little practice, and upon tljis de
pend the regularity of the shad
ing and tho smoothness of the
work.
Insert the thread In the eye of the
needle so as to have the twist seem
to run down from the needle. If the
opposite end of the thread Is in
srrted In the needle than the thread
will be drawn through the linen
gainst Its twist, which causes
roughness and knots.
Queer
SOMB morning when the early milkman
wakens you with his clatter, don't
say. "Oh. dear. I wish they would deliver
mlk same other way!" Just wake up
wide awake and think, "I wonder how
ether countries get their milk!" I'or in
deed, ther are as many queer ways of
delivering milk as you can Imagine!
Milk Is such a nourishing, wholesome
ftied Mat people from the earliest times
have used It when It was obtalnablo; and
the ways of getting It from place to place
have been mopt curious. But suppose you
eutit the ways in which milk has been
delivered this very day not in olden
lUu, but today.
First there Is the auto milk wagon which
ruhc around and delivers In lightning
tlmo. (ho milk which has been brought
frfli tho country dairies on milk express
trjtlns.
Then there is the more common horss
drawn dairy wagon that early In tha
Mornjpi: travels through streets and
lUys leaving clon, cold bottles of fresh
milk on all the doorsteps.
lp maUer towns and villages the milk
man UrHcs down tho streets and stops
tn front of proaptctjvn customer's homes,
"t ir ha Itaas out of his wagon and rings
t ' -U loud an long U the housewife
v. 1 1 --I scir-e milk, ohe must run out to

f
TO
, wives devote all their care and energies
to wounded heroes home from the front,
to the negloet of tho husbands who have
failed to enlist, tool
"What Is the uo of tho 'obey' clause
when a husband Is met every tlmo by the
rejoinder: "Wo are living In war times,
nnd the country's got to come Aral!'"
Personally, I never did see the use of
that "obey" clnuso In the marriage ser
vice! It Is Just Inserted to bo broken,
nnyhow, and no sensible girl would ever
promise to do anything of the sort.
Hut to return to the question of these
marriage moratoriums. In the caso of
Mrs. Smith, who Is qulto CO If she's a day,
and who. In her spare time, takes
wounded "Tommies" out In her car, It
really doesn't much matter. Her hus
band, In all probability, will accept the
"war work" argument and won't worry
from Jealous fears.
Hut In tho enso of blonde and beautiful
Mrs. Dash, who Is only 22 and as pretty
as n picture, well things aro a little dif
ferent! She Is reputed to have broken tho
hearts of all tho Invalided heroes sho
dally ministers unto! The fact of herf,
taking ofllcers out In her delightful little
boat on the river four dnys a week, too.
nnd railing It "government work" Isn't
going to satisfy her husband, oven though
they nrc different otllccrs every time.
And It makes him madder than ever
to be told when he remonstrates on
llm soldierly zeal of his better half that
he Is "unpatriotic" as well as ldl-
itlc.
Personally, I think
that the girls, whether
they be married or sin
gle, aro nil doing splon
dldwork and should not
bo criticized or In any
way censured for so do
Ing. The husbands who
show Jealousy should
clear out of Kngland
and get to tho front
themselves, when they, too. If Bent home
wounded, would be fussed with and min
istered unto by sundry fnlr ones and
have tho satisfaction of feeling that they
ut last i enlly deserved that little attention!
AGAIN IN
ON FALL COSTUMES
BROADCLOTH SUIT
Dairies
have htr amount ladled out to her from
the big can of milk In the bak of the milk
wagon. No caring for germs or files In
that method. Is thero
In many countries the milk Is carried
about In great covered hucketB which are
hung one on each side of oxen and In that
way nro carried to the homes whore It Is
purchased. The oxen aro always driven
by young hoys or Rlrls. or, In case thero
are no children In the dairyman's family,
tho old father or the aged mother drives
the oxsn on their rounds.
But the strangest of all are the customs
In tha countries where goat's milk Is used
instead of cow's milk! Kor the goats are
not milked and then the milk dsllvered,
as you would think would be done no.
Indeed)
Just Imagine going to your door mil
saying to your milkman, "Stop a bit' I
want milk from that third goat-yes, the
one with the brown spots !" wouldn't it
seem tunny!
But ths people who are used tb that
method think their way Is the very best
of all. ITor in that way they get their
milk warm and frssh right In their own
palls, And the pretty goats can be heard
evtry morning as they golly clatter, clat

MN ALSO MENTIONED
FOR EDUCATION BOARD
Murrell Dobbins, Former City
Treasurer, and Bayard Henry
Among Possibilities
While prominent Philadelphia women
aro being urged for membership In the
Il"iird of nducatlon, the names of several
men are also being suggested In political
and educational circles.
A vacancy In the School Hoard exists
through tho death of William T. Tlldcn.
It Is expected thnt the Judges will soon
nnme a mnn or woman to succeed him.
The terms, of five members will expire In
November, so that they will also be re
quired to make ncv appointments then.
There are now no female members of
the School Hoard. Among tho women
suggested for the honor nto Mrs Hudolph
Ulankenburg and Mrs. Kduln C Orlcc.
Murrell Dobbins, ex-City Treasurer, has
also been mentioned as a posslblo suc
cessor of Mr. Tlldcn.
Mr. DobblnH was once a member of tho
Board of Education, but was obliged to
resign because of his election to tho City
Treasurcrshlp. From two distinct son ices
today came the report that Ilaynrd Henry
would In nil probability be elected to tho
board.
Mr. Henry is uctlo In educational nf
falrs In Germantown. He Is a director
of tho Pennsylvania Itallrond, having been
elected to that office last January to
succeed N. Parker Shorlridge.
Mr. Henry has been active In politics
for many years nnd enjoys n large law
practice. He was elected to tho State
Senate In 1900 as an anti-Quay man, and
several years later was mado a member of
Select Council. He Is associated In finan
cial affairs with George II. Kaile, Jr.
X-RAY EXPLODES
PELLS IN CHICKEN
Fowl Dives Out Hospital Win
dow When Operation Is
Too Successful
Two little fellows wandered Into St. J)
scph's Hospital today. One pushed
his way Into tho accident ward, doubled
up and squirming, the nurses thought,
with pain.
"Please, lady, kin I Bee th doctor right
away?"
"What's the matter?" asked the nurse.
Hut the boy only squirmed and folded
his arms still tighter over his middle. Ho
looked to bo In such pain that tho nm so
hurried for a doctor.
"Please, doctor," sobbed the boy, pro
ducing a chicken hidden under his coat,
when Doctor Hums appeared, "will yuh
operate on him? He won't cat 'cause
his leg's broke." Doctor Ilurns felt the
bird, but could discover nothing wrong.
"Tell you what I'll do," he said, "I'll
take an X-ray of the bird."
So the assembly adjourned to the X-ray
room. But the bird balked at tho table.
"Get some corn," suggested the nurse.
There was none handy, so the doctor laid
a trial of pills from tho chicken to the
table. The chicken clucked and went
for the meal. When ho was In lino the
plate was snapped. But Instead of snlf
ring at the pills the bird ate them. When
the power from tho X-rny went on tho
pills went off Inside th" chicken.
With a cry of despair It sailed straight
for tho window, taking glass and screen
In Its haste. It streaked down the alley,
and its youthful owners, Roy Wlncth, t
years old, nnd llussel Hnllowell, also fi,
of Perklomen street, near Itldgo ave

NEW PHONE KD31BER LETTERS
Superior "J," "R" and "M" to Succeed
Troublesome "L," "X"
and "Y"
The letters "A" and "D" will soon dis
appear completely from number tags on
Bell telephones throughout this city.
Thero will be no longer a "Walnut
th-r-r-re-e, thr-r-ro-e, thr-r-re-c D" to
puzzle anxious telephone operators, nor
a "Preston seventy-four-elghty-A" to fig
ure oui. instead tnero will be walnut
233-J and Preston 74SO-W
These changes are being made as a re
sult of an extensive study by experts of
the company to determine what letters
are least likely to be misunderstood over
the phone. Those selected were W, J,
It nnd M. Two-party lines will have the
letters W and J, while four-party lines
will have all of the four letters selected.
Hitherto two-party lines have had the
letters A and D and four-party lines the
letters W, I,, X and Y.
Tho making of the changes was begun
early last ear and continued at the rate
of about 4000 In each Issue of the direc
tory As there were only about IS 000
changes to be made It Is expected that
the work will be virtually completed In
the next Issue.

th.i Sapovlts, suffragist speaker, who ad
dressed n crowd of eevcral hundred on
tho Postotllce plaza at noon today.
"Suffragists have welcomed Indeed the
news thut Governor Brumbaugh has como
out for suffrage," Miss Sapovltz said,
"ills stand Is one which should not only
be admired, but should be upheld by
orry mnn nnd woman of this State. All
Pennsylvanlans should rejoice that Penn
F.Nlvnnla has such a Governor who has
foieslght and such a keen sense of right

"Governor Brumbaugh has shown his
efficiency over slnco he has been In Har

has been Indorsed by many of the most
righteousness and fearless men of tho
Stale."
Samuel Moyerman, of the University of

women be kIvcii the ballot, as It Is theirs
by right. He pleaded for a better democ

use two wings In flying In tho course of
righteousness, instead of only one."
Suffrago circles today expressed grati
fication over the declarations of the Gov
ernor nnd Senator Penrose In favor of
granting women the ballot.
Governor Brumbaugh, In nn Interview
last n'.ght nt Denver, sold ho was elected
on n personal platform favoring woman
suffrage, and thnt despite the united ef
forts of the Democrats nnd Progressives
to defeat him, ho considered his election
one of tho best reasons for believing that
the women will be granted tho ballot,
"Unquestionably the women are entitled
to vote. As a school man, I have learned
the value of their conclusions, and In
some Instances have even found It wise to
defer to them." Ho predicted that the
equal franchise amendment would bo car

election
Scnntor Penrose, speaking at Reading
as the guest of the Ladles of the Macca

"PURE FOOD BABIES" CALLED
HEALTHIEST IN THE WORLD
Dr. and Mrs. Harvey W. Wiley Have Vindicated Their
Theories in Rearing of Their Children.
Nature Their Unerring Guide
ABABtJ In the house Is a wollsprlng of
pleasure. So runs the old saw. Tet
thero are perhaps fathers who might feel
Inclined to change the adage by Inserting
"sometimes." There Is one father In this
country who Is positive that the adage Is
good ns It stands. He Is Dr. Harvey W.
Wiley, the puro food expert, whose two
children are perfect specimens of what
healthy children should be.
Doctor Wiley nnd his talented wife
havo never believed that there is any
proprietary formula for raising healthy
children. The Wiley children are healthy
because Doctor Wiley has clung to the
belief that Xaturo Is quite adequate to
handle the situation If one only lets her
alone. And the two Wiley children Illus

"Adam nnd Evo on a raft wr-r-r-eck

Tho deft hands oT "Doc" Josh Molony,
chef of the Inasmuch Mission, set about
tp execute the order his quick ear had
caught. Mechanically he reached for a
bowl with one hand and a couple of eggB
with another.
A swish and then a splash as he
cracked Humpty Dumpty on the side of
the bowl nnd emptied Its contents. As
ho raised his hand to break the other egg
he
lotoxed into tho bowl. Egg No. 2
dropped from hla limp hand and splat
tered its contents over tho floor.
Tho 'Doc" dug through his crop of
thick curly hair ana scratched his head.
He tilled his white cap to the side,
whistled a tuneless tune nnd then snore,
fortunately, Josh Is a temperate man.
He reassured himself by the thought that
ho had not been out lato last night. To
make sure that It was real, ho dug tho
sharp point of a butcher's knife Into the
flesh of his finger. Yes, he was awake.
Then ho cast his memory back over
years gone by. Seven seasons In tho

300 dozen eggs every day. A few years In
