AN APPEAL TO THE
Three and one-half million children In Eastern and Central Europe have
Ti alternative to disaster between now and next harvest except American aid.
For months these most helpless sufferers in the track of war have been ad
mitted to American feeding-stations only If tragically undernourished, and
have received American medical uid only If desperately threatened by death
from diseu.se.
Winter Is closing down. The money of many nations Is valueless outside
their own boundaries. Economic and crop conditions make famine, with its
terrible train of diseases, a certain visitor until next harvest. Inevitably the
helpless children will suffer most. No child can grow to health and sanity on
the pitiful makeshifts for food with which millions of European adults must
content themselves this winter. It la obvious thai the remedy can come only
from outside.
America saved 6,000,000 European children winter before Inst. Normal
recuperation cut the need nearly in half last year, but unusual conditions have
resulted in scant shrinkage of child destitution during, the twelvemonth Just
past. The response of America must now decide whether 3,5X),000 of these
charges, In acute distress, shall begin to bo turned away In Jauuary from
more than 17,000 asylums, hospitals, clinics and feeding-stations dependent
on American support. There would be no tragedy Id history so sweeping or
bo destructive of those who can deserve no evil.
The undersigned organizations, working among every race and creed,
many engaged also In oilier forms of relief, agree unanimously that the
plight of these helpless children should have complete priority In overMas
charity until the situation is met. This Is an Issue without politics and
without religious lines. There can be no danger of pauperization, for the
$2.'!,000.0(i0 for child food, anc the $10,000,000 for medical service that we
seek, will relieve only the critical cases. The medical supplies, of course,
must be an unipialliled gift, hut for every American dollar used In child
feeding, tin; governments and communities aided furnish two dollars lu the
form of transportation, rent, labor, clerical help, cash contributions and such
food supplies as are locally obtainable.
America lias not failed in the past !n great heartedness. She has never
had a more poignant call than this. Contributions should be turned over to
the local ommlltces which are now being formed for this national collection,

The New Day When Business Women Will
Prefer Simple Clothes to Finery.
By MRS. L. L. FOREST, Nat'l
You never sou a young business man going to work in a Tuxedo coat,
dancing pumps, combined with colored shirt and tweed trousers, but you
we pirls going to work in ti general mixture of ballroom iinery and tail
ored things.
Of course, this is not nllogclher the result, of lack of sense of fitness.
Confronted with the necessity of hying both evening and business clothes
out of a limited income, the business girl buys the former ml tries to
make them do for both occasions.
I'ut, no matter what the condition, this practice won't do nnv more
limn the mixed clothing will do for the young man. I fed that the Fed
eration of Professional and lUisiiioss Women should concern itself with
a national movement in behalf of simple and suitable dross for business
women.
The trouble has been (bat the moment dress reform is mentioned for
women the world jumps to the conclusion that it means mannish clothes
or a uniform. I do not believe in either, but what 1 do herald is the
ming of a new day when business women will prefer simple clothes
to K'rishable finery.

DEALT LENIENTLY WITH KIM
Consumer's Action, of Course, Was
Treasonable, But Caliph Proved
a Kindly Man.
"What Is the charge against this
man?" asked the caliph, witli a sympa
thetic gleam in his lienevolent eye.
"Your honor," said the attendant, 'it
appears that he attempted to start
a private drive of his own for his fam
ily." "A private drive! Why, this is trea
sonable. Who Is he?"
"He Is just a consumer, your honor;
just a private citizen, a man who ap
parently belongs to the middle class,
at the head of a large family. Upon
being questioned, he told the inspector,
witli u loud and unseemly laugh, that
for many moons he had been asked
to contribute to everything all kinds
of reliefs, governments, etc., and with
all this burden he was forced to pay
2" cents a pound for sugar, $00 a
month for a cool;. ?100 for a suit, and
other tilings In proportion. And so,
your honor, with a mini laugh, he
started n private drive of his own, an
nouncing that; if anybody in America
needed relief, it was he."
The caliph shook bis bead sadly, for
he was not an unkind man.
"Poor wretch," lie said. "Do not
confine him too rigorously. Feed him
on nourishing things, keep his feet
warm, and try to nurse Ids reason
back. It Is evident that the situation
in which he has found his beloved
country has unhinged his mind." Ke

Aged Aviation Devotee.
France's younger generation has
been encouraged to use air locomo

says a Paris correspondent of the
London Times. She is Mine. Ilemery,
a charwoman, who lives In the coun
try, where airplanes pass every day.
It was In 1S7S when she first left the
ground, when she tasted the delights
of ballooning, and, seeing, as she did,
the new airbird daily above her, she
could not resist trying the new sen
sation. Tims one day she had saved
sultlclent money from her meager
earnings and took a trip In the air.
She did tills without the knowledge
of her many grandchildren, who were
completely shocked when the news
reached them. She Is in no way per

funds allow to try looping the loop.

LINES OF THE WINTER MODE
Same General Style Is Found in the
Frocks of Majority of the
Couturiers.
Once again one may speak of the
lines of the mode, since fashionable
designers have decided to agree upon
one particular style, writes a fashion
correspondent in the Milwaukee Sen
tinel. Indeed, the close harmony be
tween the different large dressmaking
houses is one of the most striking fea
tures of the winter season, Lust year
at this time It was almost Impossible
to get a clear idea of the new fash
Ions. Each designer went his own
way, and a woman apparently could
dress according to her type without
worrying about the rest.
Now all this is reversed, and the
same general lines are found in the
frocks of all the couturiers. A black
velvet afternoon dress from Worth
will serve as a good example of the
new trend of fashion.
The waistline of tills frock Is long
and supple, and the narrow underskirt
is a good' deal longer than those of
last year. Three rather broad panels
fringed with monkey fur almost sweep
the ground, especially behind, whore
they are slightly longer. The skirt Is
almost covered by these panels, which
when they are lifted gracefully in
walking, have the happy way of get
ting the eyes accustomed to the longer
skirts.
The very high collar, so high that It
entirely covers the chin, Is another
characteristic of the winter's models.
There are no whalebones In evidence,
however. The collars are held In place
simply by their cut, being rather tight
and very high.
The sleeves of the aforementioned
frock are also typical. They are very
long, so long that they form folds and
are pushed hack by the hands, over
which they fall, thus making tlicin ap
pear smaller and whiter.
One French designer does not wish
to lose the opportunity of contrasting
the white skin of madanie with the
black velvet, so lie cuts a slit in the
front of the bodice, which gives a
lighter appearance to the whole dress.
Smart frocks from all the fashionable
houses make good use of these gashes
or openings. Sometimes the slashings
are found in the collars, sonietiie.es
on the shoulders and sometimes on
the long, tight sleeves.
CAPE, COAT FOR RIDING HABIT
Garment Circular in Shape and on Mil
itary Lines, but Without
Military Collar.
New knee-length capes to wear over
riding habits are In large black-and-white
checked woolens, lined with
black taffeta. These are circular In
shape and on military lines, but with
out the military collar. This type of
collar, which formerly was used, has
been discarded, because it has a tend
ency to crush the collar on the riding
habit. Now capes and coats to wear
over riding suits have soft, crushed
collars.
For an extra toinoat those made of
steamer rugs are extremely practical,
and smart. They may he of the bright
colored tweed or vicuna rugs. In plain
colors or plaids. Such coats are
straight it) cut and about knee length
and may be drawn In with a leather
belt or allowed to hang free. The

COQUETTE SET NEW FASHION
Favorite of French Monarch Respon
sible for Coiffure Which Became
a Universal Styfii.
Styles have had queer origins, and
none more unique than the fontagne,
a style of hair dressing popular in the
early part of the eighteenth century.
The dressing consisted largely of do
ing the hair high and binding it in
place with n jeweled fillet or ribbon.
At one time It was worn by every lady
In the court of Louis XIV, and from
there it spread to all parts or the civ
ilized world where fashion reigned.
The manner of Its origin Is this:
The king went for a ride one morn
ing with Mile, de Fontagne, a lovely
girl with whom the king was madly In
love, and who was not cold to his ad
vances. In fact she shortly tool; her
place as his favorite. As they rode,
her hair came tumbling down, and
there Is reason to believe the little com
edy that followed had been staged in
In advance, even to the loosening of
the pins that allowed her beautiful
tresses to escape. At any rate, 'the
lady slipped from her horse, and with
a laugh lifted her skirts and took off
a jeweled garter which she bound
around her hastily replied hair. The
king was dellglited with the by-play,
and upon arriving at the palace an
nounced the mode the most becoming
in the world. Within 24 hours every
coquette and matron In the court hnd
adopted the fashion.
Learn From Lazy Man.
At last some use has been found
for a lazy man. The secret was re
vealed by F. I!. Giibreth. an efiiciency
expert, in a recent lecture before the
polytechnic section of the American
institute.
"When we go to investigate a fac
tory," lie said, "and wish to tind the
swiftest worker, we naturally ask to
see the men or girls who have the
fattest pay envelopes.
"Put when we v, ant to see the man
vho accomplishes a task with the least
amount of lost motion, we hunt out
the laziest man in the factory. By
instinct, lie learns to do things
without loss of motion, otherwise he
could not hold his job.
"We study that man's movements
and take motion pictures of him in
action. Then we show these pictures
to the rapid, energetic worker, and by
studying them he learns shorter meth
ods and becomes much more efficient
at his own work. Cleveland Plain
