WHY?
Are Some Pencils Soft and Oth
- - 1 crs Hard?;
(Copyright. 19. by The .'flfoeeler
Syndicate,. Iso,) .
In the manufacture: of lead pen
cils, a special -gratfe of fine clay
is mixedwith particle's of graphite,:
after both substances havebe'een'
thoroughly pulverized.' The pro
portions of this mixture deter
mine the relatu-e '.'hardness" or
"softness" of the? jpericil. ;itself
a preponderance' of clay produc
ing the hard variety. and an extra
amount of graphit" making the
lead soft
In addition, the hardness or
softness of the pencil is also de
termined by operations which fol
low this mixing. The lead has
to be compressed and moulded iii
order that iMnay fit the opening
in the wood or other substance
which is to encase it The great
er the pressure upon the clay-and-graphite
mixture, the harder the
icad, because the particles are fus
ed together between dies cut from
mineral substances, and therefore
wear away less rapidly under the
friction of writing than do the
ti f. M -
souer or less compact leads.
,soit pencil usually carries a
d consirlerahtv thirlrrr than
hard pencil becfjse the very mix
ture of the soft Compound renders
it more litble to breakage, andsat
the same time, the user of a pencil
of this kind desires a broad thick'
line, rather than one which is
thin and welt defined.

Lowell Replies to Attack by
Assistant Secretary, of
The Navy.
Chiracs Tribune-Omaha Bm Imm4 Wirt
Washinton, Oct. 26. A. Law
rence Lowell, president ofHarvard
college, replying to a recent letter
from Gordon Woodbury, , assistant
secretary of the navy, severely criti
cising him for an alleged' change of
front on the league of nations, as
demonstrated by his signature to the
statement signed Iky 31. prominent
Americans," pledging support to Sen
ator Harding, insists that he still
favors the league and hopes that the
country will go' into it after Hard
ing's election.
"You are,"- wrote President Low
ell, "quite mistaken ' in charging to
me a change of opinion on the sub
ject of the league. I am still in fa
vor of the league, and 1 hope and
believe that after Mr. Harding is
elected which seems inevitable
this country will go into the league.
The statement of the 31 republicans
says the same thing. I have never
thought the league, arit stands, per
fect In my joint debate with Sena
tor Lodge I urged that it was im
perfect and needed improvement. I
am on record last March as saying
that article 10 was fundamentally
wrong, and I think so still.
"You say that the statement that
Mr. Wilson refused to accept these
modifications and insisted upon tne
agreement absolutely unchanged is
utterly false. Perhaps it could be
better expressed,; but it surely is not
utterly . false, because the point is.
mat ne reiusea to accept mq reser
vations which would have made it
possible to have the treaty ratified."
Reolving to this letter. Secretary
Woodbury said he still . could, not
understand how President toweu
could reconcile his present position
with, that he took in his debate with
Senator Lodge last spring, wherrjie
defended the league. '

Big Wage Reduction
England Mills
tWitt Ibwer Prices
Chlrato Tribiine-Omaha life Irawd Wire.
Chicago, Oct 26. Prices of , cloth
ing materials are preparing for a
parachute drop. Several textile mills
in New England today put into ef
fect h reduction in wages of 15 to 20
per tint. ' '- ' ; '
The cuts were recently accepted
by the employes in order to keep at
work. Ihe refusal of the purchas
ing public to buy, at high prices,-and
the wholesale cancellation of orders
closed up some of the mills, reduced
others to part time, tossed the whole
industry into stagnation and left the
Avorkets with high wage scales, but
no jobs. In many instances the 15
per .cent cut wipes out a 15 per cent
raise the workers received last July,
when the' mills were going at top
speed on unfilled orders., .
On the heels of the wage cuts at
the mills, Hart Schaffner & Marx,
clothing" makers, issued an an
nouncement advising the trade to
defer placing its spring orders until
the fabric market has reached more
definite levels. "
Poll Shows Harding
P Get Even Break
In Railroad Vote
Marion, Ohio, Oct. 26. Volls of
railroad workmen 'and reports made
o Harding headquarters by special
scouts show that the vote of the
Brotherhoods is not going solidly for
Governor1 Cox as has been -predicted
by the democratic managers, but
that Senator Harding will receive al
most an even break.
'As this railroad, vote is counted
at about 2,000,000 this information,
although it must be discounted
slightly as partisan, still is signifi
cant of the itrend of events and
forecasts the election of Senator
Harding next Tuesday. ., ',
The Ohio polls among the rail
road men show about 30-70 in favor
of Cox. hut outside tlfe state it is a
little better from a republican stand
point. " When the campaign"' started
it was .asserted by .President Gomp
ers of the American Federation of
Labor, and assumed as true in many,
quarters, that the railroad men were
a unit against the Cummins-Esch
bill and would so record themselves
at the polls because Senator Hard
ing had supported that bill.

Mr. James H. Allen suffered for years
With- rheumatism. Many times this ter

, He finally decided, after years of cease
less study, that no one can be free from
rheumatism until the accumulated im
purities, commonly called uric acid de
posits, were dissolved in the joints and
muscles and expelled from the body.
1 With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and finally
compounded a prescription that quickly
fnd completely banished every sign and
ympCblp of rheumatism from his system,
i HaSfrealy gave bis discovery to others
who- took it, with what might be called
marvelous success. After years of urg
