The little foibles of the great--the coquetries and rivalries, as well as the master strokes which control the destiny of nations--are faithfully reflected as no one has ever yet been able to do or is likely to do again. The a of "Pieces of the Game" is an American woman who.

As far back as Mrs. Bishop relates. Mr. Bishop a to i his money, and so a i a his property that It would be impossible for her to prove that he was a man of large means.

In his application Mr. Bishop asserted a It cost as much to care for his children as it did to maintain Mrs. Bishop, and made this another ground for reduction of the alimony. A special meeting of the Lenox Club was held Tuesday to maks such changes as are necessary growing out of the purchase of the Dr. Richard C.

Miss Pankhurst made the voyage under tho name of Elizabeth McDonald, and did riot a her I i i the Finland was i i sight of shore. Women of England Loyal. "I do not uomo to America to advocate i i a methods," were almost her first words as she stepped down the gangplank Into the midst of a dozen reporters.

"Militant methods are not needed in America. The men of the United States are more liberal than the men of Engl a this is demonstrated by the fact tha-t a of your States have al- a granted woman suffrage. "In England our cause has given way to the cause of war, and we women of a are all loyal to our flag. The women's fight for votes In England has been laid aside temporarily. I believe, however, that England would have been better equipped for war if her women had been given the vote.

War Expected for Years. "It had been generally expected for years that the war would come. The who are the greatest sufferers, should have had a voice in the preparations to meet It. "Be a as it may, militancy already has slven its lesson in England. INone of tho English women believes England will do a i but win In tills war." Miss Pankhurst said she expected to remain in the United States for a few months.

She was especially desirous of visiting: the far West, and would make a i to the Pacillc coast. If possible. A how, she said, ahe expected to go to Chicago anil to Boston. i In New York she will be the guest of Mrs. O.

MILADY'S COMPLEXION TO COST MORE BECAUSE OF THE WAR IN EUROPE Be a little careful of your face powder, i girls, for It is getting more expensive; every day to keep that shine off.

Imported complexion subduers. It learned yesterday, have begun to rise in I price. It formerly was possible to pur- chase a box of French whitener for 85 cents. Now this same beaoity ajd costs $1. Fifteen cents on the box may not sound appalling, but powder Is put on so liberally as it is in these tango tea days It soon counts up.

Domestic Goods Higher. Some, of the domestic face improvers have added a few cents on the box, be- ause. so a clerk In one of the largest beauty dispensing departments of a store said, they are made of certain materials Imported from Europe, and the manufacturers' supply is running low. Those attractive little vanity boxes come in several shades cost 5 cents more than they did a few days ago. And thousands are sold in this city alone.

There la hardly a girl or a middle-aged woman who doesn't carry one of these necessary little tango complexion lozenges tucked away ih her purse or stowed away somewhere within easy reach. Two well-known French firms put out these complexion boxes and both have established a war price. Rouge Also Advanced in Price. That it is going to cost a great deal more money a it did to keep beautiful and attract the opposite sex Is evidenced in the advance In the price of rouge. Of course most women will pretend that the rise In the rouge market isn't going to affect them at all, but If you could look through their dressing table compartments you would probably flnd hidden among a lot of other things a tiny box or jar of carmine.

"Just for some special occasion," is the explanation offered. But that only proves how popular make-up materials are and that women "will have to economize on candy and tea if they are going to look radiantly beautiful in spite of the war. AUTO DEMORALIZES AS MANY STUDENTS AS ALCOHOL, SAYS COLLEGE PRESIDENT Providence, R. Oct. the last ten years probatoly es many students in American colleges have been demoralized by the automobile as by alcohol." President W.

H. P. Faunce, of Brown University, asserted today in a sermon which was the opening feature of a week to be devoted to the celebration of the one anniversary of the founding of Brown. "It Is a serious matter that the colleges started amid national penury have come Into an era of over-expanding national wealth," he added. "Certainly the institutions that were once tested by poverty are now being tested by a luxurious civilization around them." Referring to the European war, Dr.

I Faunce condemned "the perverted 'phil- osophy of force," "the arrogant militarism of and "the theories that would base all national greatness on dreadnoughts and battalions."
