The sketch shows one of the very

, will he noted, the back of this coat is
; rather long, the center reaching below
■ the knees. The sides slope gradually
; up, so (hat the skirt of the coat Is

' side front, and a vest In contrasting
. fabric and color gives a real style

or broadcloth, with vest of white cloth,
- braided in black. Or the suit might he
attractively developed in a dark red
with vest of white braided In black or
with braid matching the color of the
suit proper.
The use of vests makes it possible
to remodel a last season suit attrac-
tively and at little expense.
Suit skirts are nearly all severely
• plain, and all are comparatively nar-
row, but the ultra-narrow skirts,
measuring a yard and a quarter or
• less, bulletined for fail and winter
' wear are renlly seldom seen, except in
! garment manufacturers' showrooms.
Manufacturers make their model gar-
'.inents very narrow, but buyers nearly
/•always stipulate that the garments

'■are of reasonable walking width, and
ivery few that are less than a yard
and a half wide arc actually shown in

■ In regard to the possibility of a

son the present indication seems to be
■that very high-grade and high-priced
suits will be in great demand, while
the medium and cheaper grades (none
are really cheap) will not be so popu-
lar. The reasoning is that wealthy
women will indulge themselves in gar-

HOME DRESSMAKING HINTS
Dissatisfaction With One's Own Wortc
Results From Desire to Hurry
the Job Through.
When the modern girl ma&ts a
dress for herself she is apt tc> siij
that she does not feel comfortable In
It. She is afraid that it does not look
right, or that it looks home-made, and
she feels that the freshness has all
gone from it. In fact, she does not
take any pleasure at all in wearing it.
Little does she realize the true
reason for this feeling of dissatisfac-
tion. It is simply because a girl in
these modern days of hurry and bus-
tle wants to finish a dress too quick-
ly. She does not allow herself suf-
ficient time to finish it well. While
she Is still wrought up over the fin.
ishing touches and ail on edge from
sewing the hooks and eyes on in a
hurry, she puts the dress on and th h
wonders what's the matter.
This is all wrong. A dress should
be finished carefully, pressed and put
away for a week at least, before it is
worn. Then when it is taken out
again the difficulties encountered in
the making will have been forgotten;
the dress will seem entirely new, and
will have all the freshness of one com-
ing from a store.
Suit With Contrasting Vest.
ments of all kinds—suits as well as
dresses for street wear—whereas wom-
en who spend less will be more in-
clined, following the custom of the last
two or three seasons, to favor the one-
piece dress.
Junior Model.
Midnight blue velvet is the cover-
ing of a large picturesque model hal
which will be much affected by the
young girl this winter. It rolls up
in the back and is garnished with a
large wired bow of midnight blue
satin. The bow may also be made ot
navy blue lace, well wired, of course,
which gives a more dressy finish to
the hat.
J MADEOVERS THAT WILL SAVE
. One-Piece Military Effect Can Be
Made From Spring Suit—Use of
Stockings and Ties.
A smart winter dress, the latest one-
piece military effect, can be made
from your spring suit if the coat is
not too closely fitted. Rip and wash
or turn. Discard lining and interlin-
' Ing. The cutting and fitting are prac-
tically eliminated. The sleeves will
- need to be made smaller at the cuff.
• A wide belt covers the seam at the
'• waistline. Have a collar to match
the belt. Trim with buttons and mili-
tary pockets.
• ' Center pieces nnd doilies made from
linen dresses that are past use are
■ jO. K. for the cottage or every-day use.
Trim with narrow lace and Insertion.
A rug made by braiding all black
stockings with a border made from
old neckties is prettier than the ordi-
nary braided rug.

sofa pillows for their own use.
DICTATES OF FASHION
Soft pompons are a novel means oi.
fastening a dress at the side.
Long jet fringe has a graceful ef-

Long, straight tunics are worn will
rather narrow straight skirts.
Long, straight, transparent sleevo

Very smart dresses for the little j^li,
are made of contrasting materials.
One-piece robes are made which
hnve a distinct effect of being wrapped.
Some capes are cut to drupe over
one shoulder like a Roman toga.
Slipper Buckles.
A pair of slipper buckles for black
satin slippers are made of small, cut
steel beads, simply fastened one next
the other in an oblong shape to form
a buckle.
WILSON SAYS "NO"
10 KAISER'S N01E
NO PEACE WITH IMPERIALISM-
AUTOCRACY MUST GO
FOREVER.
Washington, Oct. 15.—President
Wilson has answered Germany's peace
proposal with a decision which not
only fulfills the expectations of sup-
porters of his diplomacy, but also dis-
pels the fears of those who predicted
he would substitue victories at arms
with defeats at diplomacy.
Washington, Oct. 15.—The text of
the president's answer follows:
"Sir:
"In reply to the communication of
the German government dated the
12th instant which you handed me to-
day, I have the honor to request you
to transmit the following answer:
"The unqualified acceptance by the
present German government and by a
large majority of the reichstag of the
terms laid down by the president of
the United States of America in his
address to the congress of the United
States of the eighth of January, 1918
and in his subsequent addresses, jus-
tifies the president in making a frank
and direct statement of his decision
with regard to the communications of
the German government of the eighth
and twelfth of October, 1918."
"When the time to consider an arm-
istice comes, the military advisers of
the United States and the allies will
be consulted and no military advant-
age of the armies fighting the central
powers will be lost.
"It must be clearly understood that
the process of evacuation and the con-
ditions of an armistice are matters
which must be left to the judgment
and advice of the military advisers of
the government of the United States
and the allied governments and the
president feels it his duty to say that
no arrangement can be accepted by
the government of the United States
which does not provide absolutely sat-
isfactory safeguards and guarantees
of the maintenance of the present mili-
tary supremacy of the armies of the
United States and the allies in the
field.
"He feels confident that he can safe-
ly assume that this will also be the
judgment and decision of the allied
governments.
"The president feels that it is his
duty to add that neither the govern-
ment of the United States nor, he is
quite sure, the governments with
which the government of the United
States, is associated as a belligerent
will consent to consider an armistice
so long as the armed forces of Ger-
many continue the illegal and inhu-
mane practices which they will per-
sist in.
"At the very time that the German
government approaches the govern-
ment of the United States with pro-
posals of peace its submarines are
engaged in sinking passenger ships
at sea and not the ships alone but the
very boats in which their passengers
and crews seek to make their way to
safety; and in their present enforced
withdrawal from Flanders and France
the German armies are pursuing a
course of wanton destruction which
has always been regarded as in direct
violation of the rules and practices of
civilized warfare.
"Cities and villages if not destroyed
are being stripped of all they contain
not only, but often of their very in-
habitants. The nations associated
against Germany cannot be expected
to agree to a cessation of arms while
acts of inhumanity, spoliation and des
olation are being continued which they
justly look upon with horor and with
burning hearts.
"It is necessary also in order that
there may be no possibility of misun-
derstanding that the president should
very solemnly call the attention of the
government of Germany to the lan-
guage and plain intent of one of the
terms of peace which the German gov-
ernment has now accepted. It is con-
tained in the address of the president
delivered at Mount Vernon on the
Fourth of July last.
"It is as follows:
" 'The destruction of every arbitrary
power anywhere that can separately,
seeretlv and of its single choice dis-
turb the peace of the world: or if it
cannot be presently destroyed, at least
itc reduction to virtual imnotency."
"The power which has hitherto con-
trolled the German nation is of the
sort here descrihed. It is within tViP
choice of the German nation to alter
it. The president's words i'10t quoted
naturally constitute a condition pre-
cedent to neace. if peace is to come
by the action of the German neoDl*
themselves. The president feels bound
+o that the whole nrocees of peace
will fn his judrmpnt denend upon the
def;nitfm"=s and the satisfactory char-
nrter of the guarantees which can b^
* iven in this fundamental matter. Tt
is indisoencible that the government*
^•ssociated atrainst Germany shon™
i'now hevond a peradventure with
whom thev are dealing.
"The president will make a separate
i-eplv to the roval *nd imperial govern
of An«tria-Hungarv.
"Accent sir. the renewed assurances
of hi>h consideration.

uel 1:11.

TEACHERS-Genesls 15:1-6; 18:9-15; 21-1-12.
I. Abraham Tested (vv. 1, 2).
God does not tempt men to sin
(James 1:13), but be subjects them to
rigid tests to prove them. In the treat-
ment of Abraham we have a supreme
example. God tested Abraham, not
Lot. Sodom tested Lot. God tests
the man who Is proof against the tests
of Sodom. God had promised Abra-
ham an heir through whom blessings
were to come to the world. For many
years his faith was sorely tried in wait-
ing for Its fulfillment. At length, his
heart rejoiced In the realization of
that hope. In the lad In the patri-
arch's tent were wrapped Abraham's
hopes of the future when his seed
should be as the stars for multitude.
His was no ordinary expectation. The
human affections and hopes were, no
doubt, Included; but a new nation was
to spring from him, and Isaac was the
sole link making the connection. Then,
too, he saw the coming Redeemer, for
"Abraham saw my day and was glad"
(John 8:56). It Is only as we thus
see all that Isaac meant to his fa-
ther and God's purpose for the future
of the world, that we really can appre-
ciate the crucial test that came to
Abraham. A test In some sense sim-
ilar comes to many Christian fathers
and mothers. God is calling for sons
and daughters to be offered on the al-
tar of his service. The test Is some-
thing terrific, as some who have given
up sons and daughters for the mission
field can testify. It is only as God is
known to be almighty (Genesis 17:1)
shall ability be given to give them up.
II. Abraham Standing the Test (w.
2-10).
1. On the way (w. 8, 4). Abraham
promptly obeyed. There was neither
hesitancy nor arguing. God had Is-
sued the command. At his call Abra-
ham said: "Here am I" (v. 1). He
could not say "No" to God. In the*
ordinary affairs of life we call a man
weak who cannot say "No," who has
no will of his own; but the man who
could not say "No" to God, we count
strong. Early in the morning he was
on the way to the place of which God
had told him. All who really believe
In God will yield themselves to him
without question, reserve, or shrinking.
Anything short of this Is not consecra-
tion. We should not stop to ask how
or why. It is enough to know that God
has spoken.
2. "Abide ye here" (v. 5). This test-
ing experience was too sacred for hu-
man eyes to gaze upon. How like
this the words of Jesus In Gethsem-
ane: "Tarry ye here." numan sympa-
thy is sweet, and is to be prized, but
we need to be alone in times of great
testing. There are times when hu-
man sympathy hinders us from doing
our duty. When Abraham said: "We
will come down again to you," he
spoke sincerely, for he believed that
God would give him Isaac back from
the dead (Heb. 11:19).
8. Isaac bearing the wood upon
which he is to be offered (vv. 6, 7).
This reminds us of Christ bearing the
cross on the way to Calvary. Isaac must
have been now a young man. He did
not resist or cry out, but graciously
submitted, showing that he Is making
a willing sacrifice.
4. The angel of the Lord calls (vv.
8-12). At the critical moment when
Abraham's hand had lifted the gleam-
ing blade to make real the offering,
God interfered. God did not want hu-
man sacrifice as a burnt offering, but
he wanted Abraham to give up to him
his best, the surrender of his will
to him. God Is always pleased with
submissive obedience. "To obey is
better than sacrifice." Many times
we are face to face with the test of
giving up our fondest hopes and pur-
poses, but when we have met the test
as Abraham did, we get back our offer-
ing or greater things instead. ,
III. God Will Provide Himself a
Lamb (w. 13, 14).
Just behind Abraham was a ram
caught in a thicket by his horns. Him
Abraham offered instead of his son.
In the words "God will provide himself
a lamb (v. 8) we have the whole plan
of redemption outlined. God has pro-
vided the costly sacrifice of his Son to
satisfy himself.
He who has no taste for order will
be often wrong in his Judgment and
seldom considerate or conscientious In
his actions.—Lavater.
