MADE THE VICTORY CERTAIN
Gunner's Announcement Naturally
Brought Joy to the Heart of
Artillery Captain.
r
With a ringing cheer the enemy ad
vanced to attack the intrenchments.
"Firo!" hoarsely shouted the artil
lery captain, and tho roar of tho guns
responded, but without checking tho
Bteady advance of tho enemy.
Ono pleco remained undischarged.
"Why don't you lire?" demanded tho
captain.
"I I don't know If It's loaded," re
sponded tho gunner.
A gleam of joy lit up the stern fea
tures of the oommander.
"Then victory Is ours-!" ho shouted.
"Fire It and let's llnd out!"
The. discharge mowed down tho ad
vancing column and the assault was
repelled.
'TwaB over thus.
A Substitute River.
Ono of tho perplexing problems en
countered by coaches of tho various
"varsity" racing shell crews, that of
providing better means for winter
training than Is offered by tho ordi
nary rowing machine, has been met
satisfactorily at Syracuse university
through tho Installation of an indoor
rowing tank, provided with mechani
cal means for simulating tho passage
of tho boat through tho water. This
provides what might almost bo called
actual rowing, besides keeping tho
men In condition. Popular Mechanics

Every man may have his price, but
It Is generally about three times moro
than ho Is worth.
Tho worst thing about tho dead
beat Is that ho is so very mucl alive.

Domestic Menace.
On matters of femlnlno dress wo sel
dom venturo to express an opinion un
less It be occasionally a word in de
fenso of that liberalism which permits
a woman to consider her freedom and
comfort as well as her appearance.
But we aro prompted now to utter
protest against tho progress of Amer
ican fashion designers, who, with a
free field for the first time in history,
can think of nothing bettor than to
mimic tho military uniforms of Eu
rope. Is it not enough thaUwo should havo
tho horrors of the war thrust upon us
by tho news, filling our Imaginations,
coloring our dreams? Is it not enough
that there should be signs of a military
epidemic in all our magazines, articles
on strategy, stories of lighting and
bloodshed? Must wo havo tho world's
niglitmaro intensified by tho very
clothes tho women wear? Chicago
Post.
Hie "Name."
A young spark, notorious for hiB con
ceit, was boasting in the prcaonco of
several gentlemen about tho conquests
which he had gained over tho female
heart.
"Look," said ho, "here's a handsome
present I had from my last iiiamo
ruta," at tho samo tlmo handing round
a beautiful cigar-case.
All admired tho article, which had
an Indorsement of Its quality stamped
upon it.
"Very nice gift," remarked ono of
tho company. "I porcolvo your lady
lovo oven had your namo put on tho
case."
"Well, that's queer," answered tho
boaster. "I nover noticed It."
"Look again," rejoined tho candid
one. "Tho case Is distinctly marked
'Real calf.'"
Not to Be Thought Of.
"Now let us put our head together
and seo if we can't nrrango matters."
"Put our heads together? That
would hardly do, Maude. Your green
wig and my purple hair won't harmon

need not bo swal
lowed by tho anxious preparation
so common in days passed. Many
a woman hi her effort to hold her repu
tation as :i cook, ovei loads her tablo.
Today such a display is out of tnstc.
If one cannot afford to use nlco
linen all the time she may surely havo
one sot to use when entertaining. Tho
bare table Is now so commonly used
with pretty dollies that most w onion
hall the custom as a most economical
one.
For a simple luncheon tho .lapaneso
sets, which make no pretense of being
anything hut cotton, hut which have
pretty designs in artistic colorings, are
well liked and are cheap in prico.
Flowers for the table always add a
restful look and may bo the simplest
little plant or it most pretentious hot
house bouquet. A very pretty fern
like plant may be grown at home by
planting a few seeds of, tho grapefruit
In a small pot. The glossy leaves look
like a rare plant.
When caiidlosv are used, ono may
havo the glass candlesticks, which aro
very inexpensive, nnd the shades may
ho made at homo of the color desired.
Candle light Is much softer and pret
tier when coming through dainty
shades than any other light.
Even for small companies, the salad
and dessert course is much daintier
and may be served much more effect
ively as o decoration if served indi
vidually. The stemmed glasses make a most
dainty receptacle to serve both des
serts and cocktails, while the handled
cups of glass can be used either for
punch or sherbet.
Whatever service is used, it may bo
dainty, if chenp. In this age it Is not
the most money which buys tho pret
Mest things. Simple designs in tho
lishes used, as well as In cutlery untl
inen, is the sign of good taste.

cups made of apples or tomatoes, are
especially good for salad receptacles
Baskets made of lemon, orange ot
grapefruit aro also most pleastng salad
dishes. Small cantaloupes may hu
lined, but are bettor served n a des
sert with ico cream.
Kings of stuffed olives, balls of sea
soned cheeso and nuts, pimentoes cut
in any fancy strips or slini ns tiny rad
ishes, capers and bits of any candled
fruit aro largely used as garnishlngs.
A dainty blossom is often a most at
tractive form of decoration. Tiny
sandwiches containing chopped greon
pepper aro most toothsomo with n
meat salad.
Stalks of asparagus are especially
pretty served In a ring of red or green
pepper and dressed with any desired
salad dressing.
