L
QUICK SOLUTION OF DEER TROU
., - .. , BLE.
At the last session of the legislature
It was made evident from all sections
of the state that the deer which were
under the protection of the laws of
Connecticut were a menace ' to the
farmer. The state said that the pret
ty creatures could not be shot and
that protection placed the burden of
their support upon the cultivators of
the oiL Some of the damage which
they did to growing, produce and or
chards was paid for by the state, but
there was a large amount of it which
was not and while it was fully under
stood that the deer were the depreda
tors it was Impossible to prove it. The
killing of deer . was permitted only
when they were caught in the act of
destruction and those instances were
few and far between.
The remedy for the trouble was de
clared to be the changing of the law
so that the deer could be hunted. This
would put an end to the nuisance and
the expense and rid the state of the
animals which never ought to have
been encouraged to propagate -within
Its limits.
The law permitting ' the hunting of
deer was passed and how well it Is
working out and serving the purpose
for which it was intended is disclosed
by the statement of John M. Cramp
ton. superintendent of state game,
when he declares that "if the killing
is continued at the rate it has been
maintained since the law went into
effect last August, it will mean that
there will be no deer in Connecticut
In six months more. Thus it means
that the legislation enacted at the last
cession of the general assembly prom
ises to prove a quick solution of the
farmers' trouble from deer.
MISSION TO NEAR EAST.
? -Many are the rumors . which sur
round the mission of lord Kitchener.
That he has gone to the near east is
admitted by the British government :
and on the way he bad an important
conference with the French authori
ties... Soon thereafter comes word that
a member of the French cabinet, serv
ing without a portfolio but previously
engaged in work connected with for
eign affairs, has left for Athens, and
It is but natural that it should be
inferred that they are engaged in the
task of straightening out the tangle in
the Balkans if such a thing is pos
sible. ,
Word now comes to the effect that
Lord Kitchener, .has been, given au
thority to treat with King Constan
tine of Greece- for the purpose- of se
. curing the active cooperation of that
country with the allies. Benevolent
neutrality meant more before, the dis
solution of -the chamber of deputies
than it does now that that body which
was under the control of. cx-Premier
Ventzeios has been put out of exist
ence. The allies have been sending
large reinforcements to the relief of
the Balkans and now Italy has an
nounced . that ,it will send an . army
worthy of the 'greatness of that coun
try to the relief of the threatened na
tion, while Russia already has plans
underway -which will result in the
strengthening of the -allies' cause in
that section.
The allies have long recognized the
necessity of preventing any such fizzle
is followed the negotiations with Bul
garia. Greece- and Rumania may be
hesitating until - they can decide in
their own minds which Is going to be
the winning side, but if their -sympathies
-are with the allies the time
is. ripe for them to strike and aid in
bringing that victory which they look
for. The visit of these cabinet officials
!s therefore " one of much responsi
bility. - -
TIME TO STOP CRUELTY.
When it conies' to , work, in behalf
it tho prevention of cruelty to animals
it must be recognised that a step has
Seen taken in the right direction 'by"f
:he prosecution of those who were re
iponsibla for driving a horse over
ui 80 foot preceplce at Auaable chasm
into a body of water for the making
tf a moving picture film, ft is true
that the horse was not riderless and
lhat it escaped injury, while the man
n its back sustained a broken leg.
Kit it la nevertheless employing dumb
kc-juKs In a manner which ought not
bo allcwed to go on without some
ictlon being token: to stop it. -The
" endeavor to - get thrilling and
mir-raUlcg pictures for the- nlertalft-
reent of th TJieture-lbving public has
gotten to the point where it know no
Hmit. . All sorts of stunts even to tha
riakimr of life are undertaken by men
and women for the satisfying of tha
demands, but- they know What they
are doing and if they, are willing to
take such risks tor the money, that is
in it the decision rests with them.
When, however, it comes to practicing
cruelties upon animals it is time to
call a halt and the authorities are do
ing the proper thing when they step
in and punish those who are respon
sible for such performances.
" The field of the moving pictures is
not ao smalt that the makers are driv
en to such desperate measures and If
prosecution does not put an end to
it there should be action upon the part
of patrons which: eoutd and would ef
fectively check It, for it ia folly to pay
attention to the cases of cruelty which
are of every day occurrence, if much
worse ones are to be permitted. It
sets a bad -example which needs cor
rection before it becomes a habit.
PLAYED. . INTO JAPAN'S KAND8.
A statement which cannot fail to
attract attention is that which has
been made to the effject that Ameri
can steel manufacturers are anticipat
ing orders, ranging from 250.00 to 1,
000,000 tons of steel for SS new steam
ships, the construction of which wlH
be carried on 1ft Japanese yards.
This means of course that Japan is
alive to the . opening which has- been
created for tt- in the Pacific through
the dissolution of the Pacific Mail and
other steamship lm.es which have pre
viously done a targe part of the trans
pacific business. Japanese steamship
lines have .been increasing their fa
cilities tor handling the transportation
business- which has been turned over
to them by th seamen's act. The ne
cesslty of getting more vessels is real
ized end no delay is being permitted
in meeting the requirements of the
situation. i
Japan is thus doing just what ought
to be underway ia this country. The
-expansion of the Japanese merchant
marine has bean expected and such
growth as is contemplated simply de
creases the prospects for shipping un
der the American flag for many, of
those vessels will be utilized in con
ducting the trade between this country
and the orient .
The worst feature of tbto is that not
only is the American flag disappear
ing from the high seas, and the action
of Japan in stepping Into the breech
makes it more difficult to regain lost
ground, but it is all the result of our
own legislation. It is the logical-result
of our lawmaking' which has en
tirely disregarded the needs of Amer
ican shipping in spite "of a declared
wish to have the American merchant
marine grow.
CHURCHILL'S ACTION MAY HELP.
For a long time every intimation
that conscription would have to Jj re
sorted to in Great Britain in order to
secure the required number of men
to fill the gaps in the British forces
has met with strong opposition. It
is not a popular move and up to now
the army of three million or more that
the British have furnished has been
secured undex the volunteer plan. In
hopes of bolstering up the enlistments
and preventing conscription Lord Der
by was placed at "the head of an' am
bitious scheme .of enlistments which
involved the solicitation of the men of
the country for military service, the
response to be made at once for ser
vice at such a time as it might be
needed in, the future. It furnished the
government a basis for estimating the
number 'of -reserves upon whom it
might , count for future operations.
For a time It promised to solve the
problem, for the response was targe
and there are the colonies which have
proved of great assistance in the hours
of need, but with the remainder of the
month allowed to determine- whether
it is going to prove successful in
avoiding conscription, the situation
depends entirely upon the men of the
British isles.
Not a little influence Is Jikelv to
be exerted by the announcement just
made by Winston 8. Churchill, former
nrat lord of the admiralty and ud to
his resignation a member of the cab
inet, that he Is going to the front with
his regiment, where he can be of more
service to his country. This is likely
to create a strong impression upon
those who have come to be termed the
"slacaers" and the next two weeks
can be depended upon to "-determine
whether the English policy of recruit
ing an army is going to succeed or
faiL With conscription -as the alter
native the decision rests with the men
of Britain. - :

Always remove perspiration stains
on white clothes and undergarments
in the following . manner: First
dampen the article with a little lemon
juice before it is put into soap and
water.
To keep a dish of food hot for half
an hour or longer, a better plan than
putting It in the oven is to set it in a
saucepan of boiling water, letting the
saucepan stand on the top of the
stove. r - '
To remove smoke stains from the

IN THE KITCHEN
the skin. . Bran, auch as may be
bought at -any drug store, is among
the - simplest and best. The bags
themselves are made of squares of
cheesecloth six or eight inches in site.
They are filled, half full. If carefully
dried one can be used several times.
..... t
- The skin is porous and as one gets
along -to- life it becomes dry, and the
natural oils do not circulate as free
ly through it. But if you will feed it
and - keep - it fed you will, supply the
nourishment which it requires and the
skin will stay nice as long as you de
sire to have it do so.
Hair that has become dry and brit
tle and thin will be greatly benefited
by massaging the scalp for ten . or
fifteen minutes, and then applying a
tonic made of resorcin, three. drams;
tincture of cantharides, one ' ounce;
oil ricini, four drams; oil of rosemary
ten drops; bay rum sufficient to make
eight ounces, v , -
BEWARE TIGHT COLLAR.
There is a doctor who waged a war
against tight collars when they were
in fashion, - and if they come back to
fashion, which seems likely, it is well
to remember his arguments. He at
tributes many alarming symptoms to
the collar that binds -the neck too
closely. The trouble does not lie in
the fact that the - pressure, on the
windpipe is too severe. This pressure,
to be sure, is not a good thing; but
the -neck, it seems, has many highly
organized, sensitive nerves, which do
their best to notify their owner that
they are being badly treated by mak
ing her dizzy, faint, short of breath
and filled with various aches .and
pains. . . . ; -
IVORY STAINS. ,
When the stains on ivory are slight
and will - net disappear when rubbed
off with a dry cloth, wash the article
thoroughly in warm water and soap
suds and then, without -drying it on
a cloth, place it in the bright sunlight
for a few minutes. This exposure will
usually remove the stains. After they
have disappeared wash the ivory
again in soap and water, rinse it
thoroughly and dry carefully with a
soft cloth. Where the stains do not
disappear entirely after contact with
the sun's rays, the ivory should be
washed again in soap and water, then
rinsed in clear water to which a lit
tle lemon juice has been added. Care
must be taken to have the tempera
ture of the water right, as too great
heat will injure ivory. Dark dlscol-
orations require the services of an ex
pert to remove.
DICTATES OF FASHION
Bishop sleeves are one of the novel
features of coats. ....
A modified moyen age style is in
evidence this autumn.
Little shoulder capes are seen on
the short waisted coats.
Some- of the finer waists are of vel
vet and chiffon combined.
There never Was greater latitude in
fur fashions, than this year. .-
High collars are promised for the
crepe de chine waists ' of next win
ter. . " : : : - - ,.
Serge and whipcord retain all their
old favor as : material for suits.
Panne plush s one of the preferred
materials for dressy suite. ' . -
White organdie has been and still
is in great favor. . ; .. .'
Slashed cloth skirts over : - velevt. or
silk are a charming fashion ..y..- -
Odd velvet coats will be worn with
cloth or rep serge skirts.
Chiffon eleeves seem to be as much
as ever in favor for fall dresses.
Black lace dresses with many ruches
at the hem are certainly charming
and distinguished looking.
All sorts of trimmings are being
used as borders to fabrics and many
stuffs are woven with borders which
come in most usefully for trimmings.
Silk braiding is being much used as
a trimming on tailor mades, and fur
is being put on in bands throat
bands, cuffs,- bands round the skirt
and so on. '
The coatee blouse will probably
be much in evidence as the autumn
season advances' and will be in velvet

PINCUSHION ODDITY..
If you are begining to collect nov
elties for the coming gift- season,
don't fail to Inspect the new black
berry pincushions. They may be made
at home by the ingenious girl with
several boxes of black-headed pins, a
bunch of aAiflcial foliage and a small
wicker basket. The pins are arrang
ed among the foliage to resemble large
hothouse berries. Among the sugges
tions for silver gifts you may find
this same idea in a smaller basket
of silver, with the berries of the black
pina like the homelier arrangement.
NEEDLEWORK NOTES.
If the sleeves of the frock or bod
ice in question are of net or chiffon,
a lining sleeve1 is often effective, made
of chiffon for net sleeves, of net for
chiffon ones. It should follow the cut
of the outer sleeves, being a very
yttle tighter. To make it especially
dainty' cut it in' two between wrist
and elbow and run in by hand a' strip
Of very narrow and dainty Hace bead
ing. This takes little time, but gives
a really charming effect . through the
transparent outer sleeve. ' t
1 The woman who sews well often
does not undertake to make her own
clothes, aimply because she knows
that it is impossible for .her to give
them the proper finish. But-if once
she can master a few details of fin
ishing, even the woman who does not
sew well will dare to undertake a
new ' frock or blouse of pretentious
fashion.
5 At' the trimming and plaiting shops,
under whatever name they go, it is
possible to get various sorts of dainty
finishes made. Machine hemstitching
for cuffs and collars and hems, picot
edges, pleating of all sorts, shirring
and cording, all these are done for
reasonable sums, and - often a bit of
such finishing goes a long way to
ward giving the right air to a home
made frock.
But the woman of ingenuity can do
many things herself to give her frocks
the right style. For one-thing she
can substitute a dainty finish for a
picot edge. This is used - along the
edge of flounces and frills with good
effect. Simply roll the edge In a tiny
roll and whip it over and over, evenly
but not specially close together,' with
strong thread of a matching or con
trasting shade.
When there is a transparent bodice
or vest, a little underbodice or part of
one should be fastened under it. For
a transparent vest the underbodice
need be no more than a piece of chif
fon or net that reaches from the
waist to the chest, gathered or shirred
to the belt of the bodice and daintily
shirred at the top, edged perhaps
with narrow lace and fastened . to
gether with rlbons or snapers.
FOX FUR LIKED.
The most fashionable fur for neck
piece and muff sets seems to be fox,
particularly blue fox and rose fox
the latter dyed by rather an expensive
process. Smoked fur is also in favor
since gray shades will be much worn
this season, and one may even have
gunmetal fox or battle ship gray fox
by giving an order .to an expert fur
rier. These fox pelts in soft, neutral
tones are very becoming to the face
and they are much smarter now, even
with black or dark . colored costumes,
than skunk or mink,, though these furs
will be standbys, as they always are.
Black fox is not one of fashion' fav
orites in peltry this season, but lynx,
long haired and silky. , is. Lynx is to
trim seal -skin coats, to border evening
frocks of gauzy black net and to trim
sumptuous velvet wraps, as well as
for graceful neckpiece and muff sets.
Lynx looks- particularly well with
green broadcloth " and is infinitely
smart with plaid or striped worsteds
