Difficult to Turn Frivolous and Many
Still Dress on a War-Reduced
Income.
It is the way of fashion to be for
ever elusive, as it is the way of woni
.n to be forever in search of some
ithing new. If she does not find charm
of new interest in the silhouette, then
he looks for novelty in material or fn
the manner of trimming. This season
iflnds the slender silhouette, still hold
ing first place in the fashion world. It
remains slim, perhaps slimmer, but the
whims of woman must be gratified by
the vast variety and novelty of trlm
anings, materials and accessories for
thls season.
Fashion has grown very serious dur
ing the last four years, and tt Is dif
ficult to turn frivolous "over night."
, ITor the woman who is still dressing
43 a war-reduced income, it is wise
I tto choose fashions that are established,
.gowns and suits fashioned after those
most favored by the conservative wom
.an, says Vogue.
The top coat or motor coat is per-
tfaaps the -most- important piece in her
'wardrobe. To a woman who travels,

either matron or debutante. Four

EMBROIDERY ADDS TO BEAUTY
Lavish embroidery on the side of
this attractive coat makes it a crea
tion of exquisite beauty. The coat is
of navy blue satin. The embroidery
is of blue chenille. The same motif at
the side of the dress is carried out
on the sleeves and the collar. The
blue and maroon silk belt and straps
on the coat are all in one piece.

Sk writer In the London Gentlewoman,

lasts longer than the top, and when
the latter begins to show signs of
wear beneath the arms, as is the na-
ture of fine fabric or linen undergar
ments, economy that has been prac
ticed In so many forms during the
war, has taught us to, cut away the
worn portion and join the embroid
ery "or lace, or whatever the trlm-
Kming at the bust may be, to the lower
part and thus make a new short
chemise out of an old long one.
Silk chemises are very general in
Paris, as linen is such a scarce article
In France since the disasters in the
North. Pale phik is to be seen in the

TO MAKE A PRETTY PARASOL
Little Flowers With Camouflage
Leaves Add to the Beauty of
the Sunshade.
One of a new collection of lovely
parasols can very easily be copied by
the girl who is only moderately clever
with her needle. She may either buy
a plain silk one in any of the pastel
shades, and decorate it, or she may
even dress up last year's one to look
like new. The Idea is this: At Inter
vals about the edge is a little flower
with two camouflage leaves. The
flower Is made of little shirrings of
georgette crepe and there is a little
loop of the same material on either
side of the little round group of shir
rings to suggest the leaves. These ap
liqued flowers may be of the same col
or as the parasol or they may all be of
different pale shades. A dresden color
scheme would be lovely indeed What
ever colors you choose, however, you
will find that your parasol to carry
when you wear summery things Is
quite the daintiest you have ever seen.
COPYING THE BRAID DESIGNS
Quick -Method of Tracing Better Than
Use of Transparent Paper
and Pencil.
Often, in planning a new dress, there
Is an especially pretty piece of brald
ed design on some old gown that takes
your fancy and which you would like
to repeat, If possible, as trimming for
the new. Unless you are unusually ex
pert in freehand it is out of the ques
tion to reproduce the graceful curves
and proportions of the original In mak
ing yowr transfer upon the new goods.
A quick method of tracing, better even
than the use of transparent paper and
pencil and tracing the design as the
map at school was traced, is to cover
the design with fine tissue paper and
then rub over the entire area below
the paper lightly with a heavy crayon.
As the crayon strikes the braid below
the paper it leaves a darker impres
sion which faintly reproduces the de
sign. Rub the crayon in one direction
only.
Hats en Suite.
At this time of ttie year there is al
ways a tremendous showing of sports
hats and delightful drooping brims
with trailing ribbons and pretty pale
flowers. Many models are made up in
pale pink, blue or white silk. The
prettiest fad of the moment is that of
having sweater, hat and parasol to
match. The hats with very wide brims
are charming when made up en suite
in this way, and many of these hats
were exhibited early in the season for
the benefit of Southland visitors.

HOUSEHOLD CONVENIENCES.
The skillful worker In any business
always keeps up-to-date tools, for he
knows he will thus in
crease his efficiency. The
efficient housewife also
knows that time, strength
and temper are lost by
using old, worn-out and
cumbersome utensils.
why use dull paring and
f JL... carving knives when a
small sharpener can be
bought which will keep all cutting
tools in good order? If there is any
one thing which will cause one to use
strong language it is a dull carving
knife.
A tray to remove food and dishes
from the dining table or to carry it to
the table Is a great saving of steps.
If one cannot afford ta buy a wheeled
tray or tea wagon get the handy man
to make you one, using the small
wheels from an bid gocart. A wire
dish drainer Is light and can be used
as a tray If no other is at hand, for It
is easy to carry.
Paper or wooden trays or plates
make fine dish o use in the ice 5ox.
for they do not break and may be re
newed often at little expense.
Paper of all kind saves dish wash
ing. Wipe out the greasy dishes with
a piece of soft paper before putting
them into the dish water. Keep the
table wiped up with paper, saving the
dishcloth for stains and grease.
A kitchen table covered with zinc or
some hard surface that does not need
scouring to keep clean is a most neces
sary kitchen convenience. Some good
scales, a good clock, n kitchen cabinet
with everything at hand to use In
cookery, are all necessary equipment.
Keep a bottl of kerosene near the
sink, and when it Is dry wipe out with
a cloth dampened with kerosene; It
will keep clean without scouring, he
pea ted scourlngs with various cleaning
powders will ruin the surface, so that
It becomes rough and stains easily.
Have a stool that will slip under
the table when not needed and use it
to sit on while preparing vegetables
or doing many kinds of work, it will
be found a great saving on tired feet.
One can learn to wash and wipe dishes
and iron sitting on a stool. Have a
rung on which to rest the feet to
change one's position.
A small, simple old rocking chair
m the kitchen will save many a break
down. Drop into It while doing va
rious things and relax when possible.
Keep a card index of recipes in the
kitchen in a convenient place to use
In planning the meals.

FAMOUS
PEACE TREATIES
By H. IRVING KING
(Copyright, 1919, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.)
CONGRESS OF
A Peace Congress That Helped
Some one somewhere remarked that
the eastern question would perplex
mankind until the day of Judgment.
Those fragments of nations ( which
strew the Balkan peninsula are so di
vided in race, language and traditions
that they dwell 1 side by side in a
state of constant discord and belliger
ency, no one race being able to as
similate the others a melting pot in
which nothing melts, but which Is in
a constant state of ebullition.
In 1875 the idea of pan-Slavism had
become a strong sentiment in Russia.
Pan-Slavism in ItusslaVswas answered
by a revival of pan-Islamism in Tur
key. Russian agents were everywhere
In the peninsula stirring up the Chris
tian populations and the Mussulman
reaction and the increased tyranny of
the porte still further excited the peo
ples already stirred by pan-slavlst
dreams.
Uprisings began ; Serbia declared
war on Turkey ; Montenegro, and Alba
nia flew at each other's throats; the
powers intervened and there were con
ferences, protocols and armistices,
while the Turks put down the upris
ings and defeated the Serbians and
Montenegrin with great slaughter.
The uprising in Bulgaria was put down
by the Turks with such cruelty that
the "Bulgarian massacres" stirred all
Europe. Turkey remained deaf to the
proposals of the "concert of Europe."
Declared War Against Turkey.
The patience of the czar was ex
hausted. On April 24,' 1877, he gave
orders for his armies to cross the
Turkish frontier and declared war
against Turkey. He had previously
concluded an alliance with Roumania
by which the Russian armies had the
right of passage through that country
and the Roumanian army was to co-operate
with the army of Russia. Eng
land had acquiesced in the Russian
move, provided the czar did not occupy
Constantinople or the Dardanelles,'
let Egypt alone and recognized the
neutrality of the Suez canal. Austria
had been appeased by a secret pact
with regard to Bosnia and Herzegovina
and by the vision dangled before
her of an outlet on the east to
the Aegean sea at Saloniki. 'The os
tensible object of the war was to
force the porte to put Into operation
under European superintendence his
promised reforms and to secure the
autonomy of the subject states. .
The Russians crossed the Danube in
TREATY OF ADRIAN0PLE, 1829.
Independence of Greece Recognized by Turkey and Russia.
The modern kingdom of Greece
came into being by a treaty signed at
Adrianople in 1829 between Russia
and Turkey, by which the Grecian cap
tivity of 350 years was ended. Most
of this time Greece was subject to
Turkey but not always. During the
latter Middle Ages the Venetians and
other foreign rulers temporarily estab
lished their power there. In 1715 the
Turks drove out the Venetians, who
had established themselves on the Gre
cian peninsula 28 years before, and
ruled undisturbed until the beginning
of the Greek Insurrection in 1821. The
city of Athens rose and compelled
the Turks to take refuge in the Acrop
olis; a constitution was proclaimed on
the first day of the next year; All
Pasha, the Turkish general, was de
feated and killed by the revolutionists ;
the Turks took the revolted Island of
Solo with horrible cruelties; the
Greeks captured Napoli di Romania.
A large part of Greece fell into the
hands of the revolutionists.
The war continued, with the Greeks
generally successful, until 1825. The
imagination of Europe had been stirred
by the idea of a revival of a nation
that was the ancient home of arts and
letters, and Byron had lent his money
and his name to the Grecian cause, to
die at Missolonghi, in the Greek serv
ice. Russia was ready to interfere,
but the governments of the western na
tions had no idea of making war for
sentimental reasons.
Western Powers Take Notice.
Early in 1825 Mehemit All, the great
viceroy of Egypt, who had an eye on
the throne of Constantinople, put 17,-
000 men into the Morea under his
adopted son Ibrahim, who captured
Navarino and the Island of Sphagia,
which lies before It. Erly the next
year Rrahim was joined by a Turkish
army under Reshid Pasha and
Missolonghi was taken after a six
months' siege. All that part of Greece
not occupied then by Turks and Egyp
tians was now under the influence of
KolokotronI, a mere, Russian agent.
The western powers began to "sit up
and i&ke notice." It looked as If the
czar and the sultan were about to di
vide Greece between them. The Gre
cian question, from being one of senti
ment had become one of practical poli
tics. Delegates of Russia, France and
England met in London and, on July
27, 1827, signed a convention which
established, on paper, a kingdom of
Greece. In August the fleets of Eng
land, France and Russia blockaded the
Turco-Egyptian fleet of over 90 men-of-war,
lying In the harbor of Nava
rino. On October 26 the allied fleets
entered the harbor, and, after a battle
of five hours, totally destroyed

were defeated before Plevna in July
and September. They defeated the
Turks at Aladja Dagh in Armenia in
October and took Kars by storm in
November. Plevna fell In December
and the Russian army passed through
the Balkans, and advanced to the out
skirts of Constantinople. On March
3, 1878, a treaty was signed at San
Stefano,. a little port on the sea of
Marmora between Russia and Turkey,
' Czar Was Frightened.
All the Balkan peoples, except the
Bulgarians, broke out into a tempest
of protest upon the news of this treaty.
Austria, who saw her dream of reach-
Ing the Aegean gone glimmering and
: even her control of Bosnia and Herze-
i eovina shared bv Russia, voted 60,
1 000,000 gulden for war purposes and
prepared to seize upon Bosnia, ling
land called out the reserves, and Dis
raeli startled Europe by bringing In
dian troops to Malta. The British
fleet steamed Into the sea of Mar
mora and lay near Constantinople.
The "concert of Europe" demanded
that the treaty be submitted to a con
gress of the powers. The coalition
of Europe against him scared the czar
and he consented. ,The congress of
Berlin, therefore, met June 13, 1878.
Before attending the congress Disraeli
made a secret pact with the sultan by
which England acquired complete con
trol of Cyprus. The congress lasted
until July 13. Bismarck presided and
Disraeli, Gorchakov the Rus'sian, and
Andrassy the Austrian were the prin
cipal figures. Gorchakov and Dis
raeli fought each other tooth and nail.
Once the Russian created a sensation
by gathering up his papers and start
ing to leave the council room. At aft
other time Disraeli startled the dele
gates by ordering a special train to
take him to Calais. When the Cyprus
convention came to light the diplomats
felt that Disraeli had tricked them.
That night he attended a reception.
As he entered a silence fell upon the
angry buzzing of the assembled states
men. Disraeli understood.
' "Of what are you thinking?" asked
the Princess RadzlwilL"
"I a'm thinking of nothing," he re
plied ; "I am enjoying myself."
The treaty as finally signed by the
congress provided that Bulgaria should
not extend south of the Balkans and
the military occupation of Russia was
reduced to nine months.
the Turco-Egyptian fleet. Strangely
enough, neither France, Russia nor
England had yet declared war against
Turkey, which still claimed Greece as
a Turkish province, In spite of the con
vention of, London. The sultan, natur
ally enough, eniaged at the battle of
Navarino, declared all treaties at an
end, and the ambassadors of the three
powers left Constantinople. Russia
declared war against Turkey in April
of 1828. A French army occupied the
Morea, but otherwise England and
France remained idle spectators. of the
war which ensued. s '
Russian Armies Successful.
The Russian army crossed the Pruth
In May, ,but winter came and they
were still unable to pierce the Balkans.
The next summer, however, the Rus
sians passed over the .mountains and
appeared before Adrianople, which at
once surrendered. A Russian army
fighting in Asia had also been success
ful. Russia had entered European
Turkey with 150,000 men, but only 40,
000 of them reached Adrianople, and
those so worn with battle and disease
that they could neither advance nor
retreat, while between Adrianople and
Constantinople the sultan had 20,000
fresh troops. Nevertheless, the czar
had boasted that he had 600,000 men
to loan his friends and a million and
a half to fight his enemies, and rumor
exaggerated the force of Russians be
fore Adrianople to 70,000. Turkey was
practically "bluffed" into signing a
treaty, which she did at Adrianople on
September 14, 1829, recognizing the in
dependence of Greece and granting to
Russia freedom of navigation of the
Black sea, the Danube and the Dar
danelles, and confirming and extending
the protectorate of the czar over the
Danubian principalities. The Turkish

were expected to sing in the choir of

11 you have a fountain pen that
leaks around the joints, especially so
if it Is one of those types of foun
tain pens having a point which dis
appears by turning a section of the
barrel, try an application of heavy
oil. To remedy the defect, oak the
pen in warm water, not hot, and al
low It to dry, particularly inside.
Then apply oil on the spindle which
revolves. The oil should be worked
through the bearings from end to end.
You can now refill the pen and wipe
off the excess oil. A heavy cylinder
oil is best for this purpose. To un
screw the parts of a fountain pen
which have become set, merely heat
the pen with hot water or by holding
it near a flame, but be careful not
to get too hot for there is danger of
melting. While pen is heated a slight
;twist will often loosen the set.
