The Toledo Blade does not be
lieve in the Ford candidacy because
it says “four years is too long for a
joke to run.”
Eggs should be cheaper than
they are considering that the incu
bator has taken the burdens of
motherhood from the hen.
A woman elected mayor of a
California town resigned on the
ground that she was not competent
to fill the job. We have never
heard of a man-mayor doing that.
Publicity sells goods, it collects
debts, it elects men to public of
fice, it catches criminals and lo
cates missing persons, it makes
capitalists of poor men with honest
products and paupers of dishonest
capitalists: it is the only thing in
the world that enables one man to
talk to a mi'lion at a nominal cost;
it is the staunchest supporter in
the world of morality and the most
powerful foe of vice. Publicity
properly handled in the trenches of
Europe will stop the war.
Both sides in the European war
new seem to think that peace will
ceme before an another winter sets
in. But. as the reasons given for
this belief are contradictory, both
sides may be mistaken. On the
German side it is held that the
German-Aastrian victories and
strong military position must con
vince the Allies that it is time to
yield and accept peace on Ger
many's terms. On the other side
it is generally believed that Ger
many is nearly exhausted and
must soon sue for peace on the
Allies’ terms.
THE AMERICAN RED CROSS.
Just now, while a campaign is on
to make the membership of the
American Red Gross not less than
a million, it is timely to emphasize
what has been done by this great
neutral organization to serve the
cause of humanity since the begin
ning of the war.
Supplies to the value of $ 1,051 ,
loOhave been sent through its
channels to the various belligerent
nations, of which $790,070 went
to the countries of the entente
allies and $248,521 to the central
powers and their Turkish ally.
1 he balance was sent to the affect
ed countries.
In addition antitoxin valued at
$360,000 was purchased and
shipped to the Austrian and Ger
man Red Cross societies and sup
plies valued at $123,000 to the
French government, on which the
Red Cross paid only the freight.
Serbia got fully three-quarters
of the help sent to the allies. The
need of the stricken country was
desperate owing to the outbreak of
epidemic and its horrible ravages
among the civilian population.
It is exceedingly gratifying to
know that the United States has
done so great a service and in a
spirit so impartial and humane.
The American Red Gross repre
sents the finest idealism of the
people.

BAKING POWDER
Sixty Years the Standard
No Alum—No Phosphate
World Will Always Be Able to Support
Its Population
By JOHN M. HESS of Chicago
Government statistics show that approximately 1,500,000,000 acres
of land are subject to cultivation—an area equal to 32 states as large as
Illinois. These statistics further show that an area equal to about thirteen
such states is being cultivated. All the rest, or 19 states, lies unplowed.
That is to say, only three-eighths of the land susceptible of cultivation in
the United States are now under cultivation.
Oh, the need there is and the room there is for the millions that are
being slaughtered in Europe!
The same statistics show that a farmer of today can and does pro
duce 28 times as much as a farmer could produce 100 years ago. These
facte, well established and certain, thunder forth the falsity of the Mal
thusian theory. The earth can and will support its population not only
now but for all time to come.
In America we believe that we can take care of the entire population
of the earth and do it better than it is now being done. This is the very
opposite of the Malthusian theory, which prompts men to kill each other.
What folly is this Malthusian theory, when we stop to think that the
entire population of the earth could live in the single state of Texas, in
families of five, and still have a half acre to the family!
\Q YOU KNOW that indigestion can be cured,
permanently cured, so that you can eat any
kind of food that you crave? It has been done
not only once, but in almost every case when Cham
berlain’s Tablets are used. An instance: Mr. f.
Pominville, Stillwater, Minn., who had spent over
$2,000.00 for medicine and treatment was perma
nently cured by these tablets.

i
Boys Often Spend
Too Much
Money on Girls
By LAURA JEAN LIBBEY
(Copyright, 1916.)
Pleasures are like popples spread—
You seize the flower. Us bloom Is shed!
Or like the snowflake In the river—
A moment white, then melts forever.
The most foolish course a young
man who works hard to earn his
money can pur
sue is to lavish
his earnings on
girls, with the
hope of making
himself popular
with them.
He could make
no greater mis
take, for the very
girls who accept
his ice cream and
bonbons, theater
tickets, etc., are
the ones who give
him the name of
spendthrift. They
infer that he can
not keep what he
earns, and they
might as well
have the benefit of it as anyone. If
by springtime he has not been able to
save enough to buy a new suit of
clothes—even inexpensive ones—the
girls on whom he lavished his money
will be the first to comment on his
shabbiness, and decline to be seen in
his company.
Popularity—that is, the honest kind
—cannot be bought. It is given spon
taneously and for sterling worth. A
sensible young man measures his
garment according to his cloth, as the
oVl saying goes. That is, he lets a
crowd of jolly girl* who expect to be
“treated’’ every time they happen to
meet a man, severely alone. That is
a sufficient and dignified rebuke to
girls who suggest they’d like a soda,
etc.
The majority of men are too sensi
ble to buy popularity. They would
rather just one nice girl would ad
mire them, one who would have her
dinner before they started out for a
stroll of an evening or to the theater,
and would refuse to gorge herself
after the show at his expense.
The greatest fear many a mother
feels is that her boy is spending too
much money on girls. It sets the pace
for rockless living and has brought
many a well-meaning youth to ruin.
A girl who accepts the attentions of
a young man who she knows earns
hiB money by toil should study the
situation before she accepts an Invi
tation from him that calls for a car
riage if she wears her pretty, filmy
party dress. She should know that
he could afford such extravagance
only now and then. If she really has
his interest at heart she will wear a
dress that cannot spoil or that laun
dering will make as good as new, and
either take a car to their destination
or walk if the distance is not too
great and the weather is fine.
A man can well understand such a
girl will make a good, prudent wife.
His earnings would be safe in her
keeping. If an employer finds that
a young man has not been able to lay
by a dollar of his earnings for a
twelvemonth, his declaration that he
had spent it all on girls would bring
him sharp criticism, and the state
ment would sound almost unbelieva
ble.
In looking backward, reckoning all
the money spent uselessly on girls,
no wonder the squanderer grows bit
terly angry with himself. It has been
a case of a fool and his money. It
does not take some men very long to
learn their little lesson. Others are
years in finding out that the Bavlng,
industrious man, who knows how to
take care of his bank roll has far out
distanced him even in the opinion of
the frivolous girls. Money is hard to
earn. It should not be allowed to
sift through a man’s pocket like sands
in the hourglass.
It is a man’s reputation for prudent-*
ly saving which brings him respect,
admiration and popularity in a com
munity.
The Sport Hat
Despite the fact that pockets are
very generally In evidence In dressy
suits, as well as on sport garb, the
designers of accessories have advanced
little bags made to match hats, and
usually evolved In colors that offer
decorative contrast with the costume.
One of the latest ideas is shown in
a Paris hat, which is of maroon-col
ored suede in sailor shape and which
has a crown of white kid. This hat is
accompanied by a bag of the suede,
which has a cut-out design in brown
and white matching the band on the
hat.
Another expression of the same Idea
is a hat of taffeta with a very high
crown, made of plaited taffeta and
caught through the center with a col
ored velvet ribbon
