A working girl can clothe herself completely from head to foot for one year for $24.69, according to an esti mate compiled yesterday at the fashion show by Joseph Eisendrath, vice-president of the Garment Manufacturers' Association.

Levies Placed on Ba.lnees Deals, Travel, AVire Communication, Wines, Ktc. (osteins Charges Rise. OTTAWA, Ont.. Feb. 11. A draatic war taxation measure was proclaimed in the Canadian Parliament today by W. T. White, Minister of Finance. Bank circulation and the business of loan fire insurance companies are taxed. A stamp tax is applied to business and banking transactions. railway and steamship tickets, telegraph and cable messages, letters, wines and patent medicines. There is a customs tariff increase covering all imports now duti able and the free list of imports vir tually is wiped out. Increased customs charges are ef fective from today. In the case of goods now on the free list there will here after be a customs charge of 74 per cent on goods from the United States. An increased revenue of more than $20,000,000 annually is expected from the new tariff duties and from the stamp tax $8,000,000. Mr. White estimates that even with the new duties to be imposed the loss of revenue to the end of the present fiscal year. March 31. would amount to $33,000,000. The total deficit on the year's operation was estimated at $60,- 000.000. The Finance Minister also estimated that the cash disbursement in the fiscal year beginning April 1 next will total $.'!00.000.000. while on the present basis the revenue would amount to but $120.- 000.000. The special war expenditures included in the total would amount, he estimated, to $100,000,000. all of which. he said, would be borrowed. "We shall be obliged to borrow heavily over the next 14 months, he said. BERLIN READY TO TRADE OF FRISOVUIl E.ICHWGE AWAITING FRANCE.

The text of the earlier report was: "Along all of the front yesterday as far as Champagne there were artillery exchanges. In the northern region there were several aeroplane expedi tions on our part as well as on the part of the enemy. The projectiles dropped by the aeroplanes of the enemy within our lines did no damage. "In Champagne a German attack against our positions in the forest to the north of Mesnil-les-Murlus. recently occupied by us. was repulsed. "In the Argonne the lighting in the vicinity of the Maria Theresa earth works has been very violent. Accord ing to the latest reports received here, the German forces amount to about one brigade. We have maintained all our positions. The losses of the enemy are considerable and ours are serious. "In the Vosges there has been a thick fog and abundant snow. Jt was during a very dark night that there occurred the infantry engagements reported yes terday at La Fontenelle, in the Ban-de-Sapt. The Germans had at least two battalions of troops present. After having ceded some ground, our troops recaptured everything they gave up. This was during the day of February 10, and it was accomplished by a series of counter attacks."

Declaring: that it is Impossible longer to sell the usual 12-ounce loaf of bread for 5 cents, due to the enormous In crease in the price of flour, the Retail Bakers' Association of this city today sent telegram to President Wilson petitioning for a Federal embargo on the exportation of wheat and flour at this time. The bakers assert that tin less they can increase the price of the 12-ounce loaf or decrease the size of the loaf to be sold for 5 cents they can no lonecr stay in business. At the meeting of the supervisors next Slonday the bakers will take up the subject of the temporary suspension of the ordinance which sets the weight of the 5-cent loaf as M ounces, so that a loaf weighing approximately 11 ounces can be sold for the frame money. 'The flour, from which we make our bread has risen in price from $4.65 for a barrel a year aso to $7.85 at present," said William M. Foley, secretary of the Retail Bakers' Association, tonight. "Wheat was SI cents In July and now t is $1.62. and It is a fact that the loaf has been decreasing in size since last August. We formerly gave more than 12 ounces in the loaf, but now we can not give that without losing money. If flour goes any higher, which it seems likely to do, the 5-cent loaf will be only a bun."
