Now I eat heartily, never have a sign of indigestion, sleep like a log, and get up mornings feeling like an athlete. Today I can outwalk men twenty years younger. Tanlae alone put me In my I present fine physical condition, en abling me to get more real pleasure ;than ever before out of meeting and mingling with friends.

Our General Dawes, as was pre dicted here, helps to brlhg In a re port that says to Uncle Sam, "pay, please.” It seems that Germany must have a loan, to get started on reparations. She asked for twenty five hundred millions. She Is to have $250,000,000, if plans go tnrough. “All nations, including this, will contribute to the loan, and all will be expected to squeeze Germany, If she does not pay.” That’s the program thus far. Later, when Germany, having bought raw materials, gets her breath and starts paying reparations, will Uncle Sam get part of the repara tions? Don't ask foolish questions. Certainly not. But, in case Germany fails to pay the fancy reparations. Uncle Sam may have another chance to make himself useful. As he lent Germany part of the money she needed, what more reasonable than for him to help pay the reparations, in case Germany skips payments. That is the plan, and you will see' it materialize. The big Anaconda Copper Com pany skipped Us regular dividend resterday. That frightened the mar ket, knocked down Anaconda stock ind many other stocks that "sold ■off in sympathy." You’ll hear some market expert announce gloomily that trouble must be expected If de magogues insist on senatorial in vestigations that interfere with big business. On the other hand, American Loco motive had its best year, with a net profit of more than $12,000,000, a profit above $21 per share. American Locomotive sells around $74 while Canadian Pacific paying ;10 per share, sells to the same crowd of American speculators at $200. How do you explain that? Do you inves tors consider the Canadians better managers, or more he\e«t, or what? There ought to be no skipping 01 dividends by copper companies, and would not be, if the public understood the value of copper and braeis, and it architects and builders would serve their clients faithfully, instead ol using trashy, rusting Iron, to lower prices. Copper and brass, in building would save tens of millions a year in repairs, for they last indefinitely. Using galvanized iron in water pipes is wasteful folly. Five nuns, little sisters of the poor, were detained at Ellis Island because the Immigration quota of their native country was exhausted. They are now admitted, under a special ruling, as teachers. The pub lic will welcome that ruling, since it eaves five good women from deporta tion. What about the mother of five children, cruelly sent back to Europe a few days ago? Could not some spe cial ruling have been made to admit her as a MOTHER? Is there a higher calling than that of mother, In the estimation of eur govern ment? Mrs. Brawner, very rich, dies and leaves $1,476,138 to her Infant son. Her older children get, each, only half as much. That sounds unjust but it reflects nature’s wisdom. The human baby Is the most helpless of living crea tures. Only the passionate devoiiwi of the normal human mother, at*& her conviction that each baby Is the most wonderful ever born, has carried the human race along thus far. When h. woman with millions leaves a double share for her infant, she is only doing what every normal mother does in another way. Akali Sikhs, who are the fighting men of India, sent soldiers to fight the British India troops. Mohandas Gandhi urges the Sikhs not to fight and not to send any fighting men. Non-resistance will win, he says. Gandhi’s attitude explains how it is possible for 100,000 Englishmen in India to hold down 300.000,000 Asiatics. There is as much difference between a Hindu of Gandhi’s type and a fighting Irishman, for instance, as between a lop-eared rabbit and a wildcat. But that Is no disgrace to rabbit or wildcat. It's only a differ ence. Mr. Belton, a deputy police com missioner in New York, says that city will be dry in three months. It will not be dry in three months, not In three years. Governor Plnchot says President Coolldge ought to make the nation dry. President Coolldge could not do It, even if the . Jaw would let him use all the navy, 'and all the army. '" I This country Is firmly settled on a basts of bootleg whisky, and the question is what can be done about ft? It was predicted, whan prohibi tion started, that hardened whisky drinkers would get whisky somehow, of course. But they would die off, poisoned, and then the young people would grow up free of alcohol, and clear. In thought. Unfortunately, ths young people, millions of them, are growing up with, a whisky flask on the hip, many of them drunk night after nilght—and every head of a school for boys and girls knows It. Dr. Holt, who died In China tbs other day, knew as much about child ren—especially rich rmen’s children— as any oiie In America. Shortly before he died he said, “un less something happens to make con ditions better, and If the children of this period grow up as they are starting, they won’t have tiiough in stitutions in the country to hold them.” A Meriden (Conn.,) factory superin tendent’s will was filed the other day, and discovery was made that he ha d left virtually his entire estate, valued at about *69,000, to a young man who bad helped to support himself by sell ing newspapers. The story Is that this youth had never failed to give the ‘'lonesome old man" a smile as he passed through the factory selling his papers, and the circumstance had so impressed the latter that he has made the young man fairly independent through his will. The country girl is ablo to put one over on her city cousin in at least one respect. According to statistics, the country and small-town girls marry at an earlier age on the average than do the girls who dwell In cltlea. CURI08ITY. Wichita Eagle. An old gentleman in Pennsyl vania was frozen to death recent ly when hi went some dlstano* from his front door to consult a thermometer. He wanted to know exactly how cold it was, and was able to tell his rescuers, with his last breath, the precise and late reading on the tube of mercury. He was something of a preclsion ist. Ctirriosity concerning inconse quential things is one of the most troublesome characteristics of humanity. The public’s mad and unreasoning desire to know where the fire is has cost the telephone companies millions «f dollars and has driven thousands of operators insane. » Financier or UsurerT Milwaukee Journal. In floating a $160,000,000 loan for the Japanese government American bankers step farther Into the field of international finance. And, since banking arrangements open the ways of commerce and trade, the loan ought to bring added foreign contracts and foreign business to the United States. But the loan seems to leave Japan gravely doubtful about whether she Is dealing with a new and w-elcome group of international financiers or is facing international OCurers. Japan will pay an interest rate in excess of 7 per cent, for her money. The yield to American bond buyers will be 7.10 per cent, at the offering price of 92Vi. Japan has a right to wonder at her treatment In the world’s money mart, now established in the United States by virtue of our huge supply of gold. International good will and under standing will suffer rather than thrive if debtor nations gradually come to the conclusion that a rising creditor nation is pursuing the course of a Shylock. It is hard to think of much better security than the Jap anese government, as Is evidenced by the oversubscription to this loan. Stress may force nations temporally embarrassed financially to submit to the lender’s terms; but to the extor tion he exacts these nations will add a full measure of cordial dislike. To ■ Far-Away Farther. The wise folks say that things you never had you cannot miss— But, since I've been a tiny girl. I’ve known it wasn’t true— For all my life, dear daddy, I have missed your care, your kiss! And yet I don’t remember them; you died when I was two. When all the other little girls at supper time would run Toward town to meet their daddies, and they seemed so glad and gay! They’d skip along and hold their hands and have the grandest fun— Oh, how I wished that I might run and meet my dad that way! Then later, with my high school chums, down town In little bands. The girls would seek their daddies . and th«^ <h%nk them with a kiss For the ice cream soda money that* was slipped into their hands— I used to wonder what adventure a west could equal this! The night of graduation, - with the atage all trimmed so fine, With potted plants and bunting, and the girls in fluffy white— Down in front the proud eyed daddies, each one thinking, '‘She is mine!’’ As they watched their little daugh ters. Dad, I cried for you that night. The years have passed, and now I watch a little boy at play— And life has shown to me the sharp est anguish one can know Is when our children suffer; so daddy, I Just pray You have not known my sorrows, for I would not have it so. I like to think on some far star you wait, from cares set free. And never know when life’s black waters round me rush and swirl; It helps to feel that if you knew you would come back to me And drive away the troubles of your grown up little girl. —Nell Lewis Woods in The Kansas City Star_ How Many Children? From the Delineator. A group of distinguished Belgian educators recently visited the United States. Among them was Dr. Paul Hager, president of the university at Brussels and an authority on biology. Though known the world over for his science, Doctor Hager is loved in Europe for a philosophy which makes the>human problems of ordi nary *folk the big .interests -of his life. Ho was asked hew many children he had. He replied, "Three,*’ then smiled understanding^ and added: "But that’s a man’s answer I've Just giver, you. If you ask a man how many children he has, he will say, for instance, 1 have three.’ If you ask his wife, she will say, T have four. One is dead.’ To most fathers, their children are Just people—sons and daughters; but to mothers, they are souls, and souls never die," Good Boginning. From the Santa Barbara Newe. The baby was bawling. Pa atood It aa long aa he could and then ventured to make tpqulry. "What doee the baby want?” "Ha la like moat men,’! snapped ma. "How l**that, my dear?" ‘‘Doesn’t know what he wants, but keeps yelling for ill” she returned. "He will' make a great statesman,” said pa discreetly.

This is a decrease of fully $500,000 from the corresponding period of 102$, when $1,500,000 worth of business was done from here In the human hair trade with the United States. ’ As is apparent from the above fig ures, everything Is not well In the hair uet world. Business In, hair nets seems to be confined only to those brands widely advertised throughout the United States by concerns who lmpoyt the raw material from China and manufacture the finished product In their own factories and plants In America. This would appear to be the reacon why local exporters of the finished article find it difficult to market their product, the major portion of the ex ports from China being shipments of raw hair. Until recently the trade has been limited mostly to double mesh hair 'nets, but there is discernible a steady movement during the past two years In favor of single mesh nets. Most of the shipments of human hair nets from China are made from Chefoo, Shanghai being second, with Tsinanfu trailing along at third. Dealers in hair predict that If the ipresent price for their commodity can be maintained without violent fluo •tuatlons a very steady business will be assured.
