Ttie lm,Tt*M*li'ti tliat to end a war generally araU tbeaioelre* of the offer of eome rrlenffly neutral to art a* mediator U utterly un-

founded.

When England dealred to end Um war with the colon lea *be began by sending ■*e|iaiate negotlatora to French government and to the American couimlsulouer* In Faria. Tbe latr tei, though |>ob1 lively commanded by congress to negotiate nn i»eace without tbe partlctpotian of their French allies. did fclgu a eeiiarat* treaty, though with the reoervation that't should not go into effect until lYaiice had made peace. They then Informed the French government, which accepted the term*. The Napoleonic peace treaties usually began w ith an armistice. Tbe moot famous, the treaty of Tilsit, was brought about by a personal meeting between Napoleon and Alexander L on a raft In the middle of the river Klemen to agree u|»ou an armistice which the czar had already sought. Napoleon's fall In ISM was accompanied by no negotiations; the allies were actually In Faria. Nanoleon'a generals persuaded him to sign sn act of abdication. and the French senate dethion-

ed him.

Tbe way to tbe peace of Ghent, which ended the war of 1812. waa paved by an offer of the czar to act as mediator, though It was rejected. In rejecting It Lord Castlcrvagh let It be known that he was willing to negotiate directly with the I'nlted Stales. The Cnlted Bute* gladly ai-c«-i>ted and sent commlaaloners. but England neglected to appoint envoy* until long afterward, when ner troubles bad become ao great that she w as desirous of peace, On tbe dentil of Czar Jtlcbolas I. hi* aucee**or, Alexander II., announced to tbe courts of Europe his desire that the Crimean war should end. A peace conference was held In Vienna, bnt In three months It was broken off and the war resumed. Tbe war went on until Austria, a neutral power, threatened to Join the allies unle.-s the czar accepted her ultimatum. He at first refused, hut a personal letter from the neutral king of Frussla Induced him to reconsider, and the final peace confer-

ence was held.

In 1870 the French governmemt which succeeded Napoleon III. asked for sn armistice, then for pence, hut the requests were declined and tbe siege Of Paris began. After the surrender of Faria the Germans consented to an. armistice to permit the election of a national a».«cmbly which It could rec Ogulxc. The preliminaries of peace were agreed on In-tween Bismarck and Thler- at Versailles, and the treaty

f 01' wed at Frankfort.

England, tweked by France and Austria, refused to recognize It, and the congress of Berlin waa summoned, hut tn-fore It met the exar had negotiated a secret treaty with England i-mhodyilig most of tbe agreements subsequently made there.

FLASH AND ROAR OF BUNS. No Davies to Muffle Them Has Prevsi a Practical 8ucores. Both the French and tbs German armies have been trying for year* to discover bow to make a gun that ahtll be not merely notaries*, but shall emit no flash. For. as Nicolas Flamri *»7* in La Nature, after dark two observer* by watching the time can with accurate chronometer* 'having luminous digit discover precisely the position of an enemy battery, or three observer*, regardless of time, can do the aame 1-y grouping their observation*. And this merely by tbe Path of tbe gun*. German Inventor* succeeded by adding a minute quantity of alkaline aatta to their powder In dlmlnluhla* tbe flash, but they found that in proportion as they suppressed the flash they Increas'd the smoke.' Other substance* added to the powder for this purpose have been vaseline, elk*line soaps. cl* Is tee and restnates uf nods, barium and aluminum. None was docceaaful. The French tackled tbe problem as a mechanical rather than a chemical one. A gun la really only an explosion motor, and It seemed that there ought to bs a way of muffling It* sounds and Its (Mali as those of other such motors are muffled.

For the skirt that has crept up above even the high water mark of fashion the attached band at tbe lower edge la an effective remedy. If the cut of the skirt admits of It a yoke may be Introduced st the top. Where spot* ot the ravage* of time have made the front of a skirt unwearable tbe pn> fssslonrl repairer recommends the inaettlng of a front breadth of either similar or contrasting material. An Ingenious girl successfully remodeled a dress In thl* way, overcoming what seemed an unsurmoun'abl * difficulty by trimming the new front breadth with cross I Minds of silk. This made it possible to utilise short lenglhs ol the fabrip which would hove been use less without the bawls to cover the

seams.

A favorite trick of tbe professional repairer la to substitute sleeves and under the arm portion-* of contrasting material, auch as taffeta or georgette crepe, where tbe ortginnl material U worn or discolored. On the oilier hand, where the front of a blouse becomes spotted before tbe other portlcns shew signs of wear the professional mender 1* apt t<» apply lace and appliques to cover tbe damage.
