A War Lesson.
“Sponeleigh borrowed $20 from me
this morning, but I didn’t mind letting
ihim have the money.”
“Why not?”
“I noticed that he jotted down the
tamount on a scrap of paper”
“I thought it generally understood
that a scrap of paper signifies an obli-
gation that won’t be met.”

By SIR AUCKLAND GEDDES, British Ambassador to U. S. A.
The cure for such ills as exist is, I am sure, frank-
ly to recognize that the common language is at once
a bond and a barrier between the English and Ameri-
can peoples, and to work to strengthen its binding
power and weaken its separating influence. It can be
done, but it is not the work of a day or a year.
The Englishman who saw his best girl off with
an American soldier or sailor is going to continue brac-
ing that he dislikes Americans, which is not what ha
really means at all. What he really means is: I dis-
like seeing ray’girl take any notice of another male.
One result of the war has been to multiply the possibilities of such in-
dividual misunderstandings.
* What we all want more consciously to realize is that nations can not
be judged by a few chance specimens of their citizens.
They must be judged by the expression of ftheir collective will> made
manifest in hours of crisis. Judge Britain by her action as a nation during
the war, during, if you will, one month of the war—April, 1918 and I
think no Briton or friend of Britain need be ashamed of his citizenship or
his friendship.
Judge America by her action when she came into the war, her whole-
hearted and instantaneous adoption of compulsory military service and,
even more striking, the voluntary rationing of the use of food and fuel
in millions of households, and I think no American or friend of America
need be other than proud of his citizenship or his friendship.
These are the great signs of the pure gold of unselfish idealism in
national souls, and long after the hysterical shouting and exaggerations
have passed away, long after the false generalizations have been exposed
and their falseness recognized, the ultimate essential verity, the capacity
to forget self in the service of a common ideal, will bind our nations in
a yoke of service to mankind.

“Here is another letter that makes me

dollars. ' * • ’
“Money Isn’t everything in this world.
There is many a big hearted, rich, man
who would give all he has on earth to be
able to produce a remedy with such
mighty healing power as Peterson’s Oint-
ment, to sell at all druggists for 60 cents
a large box.”
Dear Sirs:—
“I was an untold sufferer from old run-
ning sore and ulcers. I had tried most
■everything without any relief from pain.
A friend told me of your wonderful oint-
ment and the first box took away the
pain that had not left me before in years,
and after using just nine dollars’ worth
■of the salve I am cured. The ulcer was
9 inches by 614 inches, is all healed and I
■ can walk. Never, never will I be without
Peterson’s again.

to praise it.” Yours truly, Mr3. Albert

The Mississippi valley embraces forty-one per cent of the area, more
than fifty per cent of the population^jmd^nor^than,seventy per'-cent-of
the .jssvr /arterial produced m the United States. The bulk of the na-
tional resources of soil, of mines, of forests and waterways lies within its
boundaries.
During the past half century the valley has in fact functioned very
largely as a back yard to the Atlantic seaboard. The cause underlying
this condition was the ability of the Atlantic seaboard through the east and
west railroads to control the transportation of the valley and by a system
of rate relationship, differentials, and tariffs so to shape the movement of
valley commerce as to develop the Atlantic seaboard, financially, commer-
cially and industrially.
The time and the opportunity to break up this transportation control
and to give the valley access, by low resistance channels north and south
to its natural ports on the gulf have come.
The Mississippi Valley association has been organized as a strong and
practical medium through which the people of the valley can make common
cause in all matters affecting the broad, general interests of the region
lying between the east and west mountain ranges, Canada and the gulf.
Divorces Which Can Be Stopped Only by
Being Made Unprofitable.
By GEORGE ALLAN SMITH, Denver Attorney
There is need of legislative reforms for the purpose of making it very
hard for selfish, shameless couples to obtain legal separation. Usually cases
of this type involve childless couples. They can only be stopped by being
made unprofitable.
Children are not only a strong influence against divorce, but in the
event of divorce they either persuade to a settlement out of court or pre-
vent the befouling of the domestic nest with the re'ckless and abandoned
license in which parties to these childless marriages indulge, whenever there
ig enough money in sight to make the alimony question a real fighting
prize.
It might be worth the while of our spiritual leaders to look into the
matter of presenting to the coming legislature an amendment to our
divorce laws that would, in case of divorce suits between childless couples,
either deny alimony entirely or limit it to such an amount as would enable
the party to live, not according to the wealth of the other party, but accord-
ing to the common and average standard of the community as a whole.
“Don’t Slam the Door on the Reporter, Talk
to Him; He’s a Regular Guy.”
By MORROW CRUM, Chicago Tribune
Flour or Starch May Be Used to Give
Same Appearance, but There Is a
Great Difference in the
Composition.
Many housekeepers know it is pos-
sible, when eggs are lacking, to use
other, foods which will give something
the same appearance as eggs. Flour
or starch may be used to thicken cus-
tards or gelatin used in making an
icing or a pudding. The dish may be
acceptable, bat the food value Is not
the same as if eggs were used, say
home economics specialists of the
United States department of .agricul-
ture.
There are a number of commercial
products designed as egg substitutes,
some of which approach eggs in com-
position much more nearly than oth-
ers. Of these products, some are fair-
ly well known to housekeepers while
others are used chiefly in commercial
baking and for similar purposes. The
various kinds differ much in compo-
sition, some being much more like
eggs in protein content and energy
value than others. In judging such
products one should not rely upon
appearance. Yellow’ color does not
necessarily indicate other egg. yolk
characteristics. Some of these egg
substitutes, at least, are manufactured
from skim milk and are said to con-
tain milk casein and albumin mixed
with a little flour. Such a product is
evidently rich in protein. Other egg
substitutes have been devised which
consist of mixtures of animal or vege-
table fats, albumin, and starch or
flour.
Goods have also been marketed for
use as egg substitutes which contain
little or no albumin, but which are
apparently made up quite largely of
starch, colored more or less with some
yellow substance. They are common-
ly advertised for making custards and
puddings similar in appearance to
those in v^liicli fresh eggs are used.
If the housekeeper wishes to use them
she should not overlook the fact that
in the diet they cannot replace fresh
eggs, since they do not contain the
sAme kind or quantity of nitrogenous
matter, particularly if such an egg
substitute is used in the diet of in-
valids or children in the belief that it
contains the same nutrients as eggs.

MAKE YOUR BROOMS AT HOME
Machines by Which 25 to 30 Can Be
Turned Out in Ddy Are Used in
Some Communities.
Well-made brooms command good
prices, and in the southern states
where broom corn- grows well the
home demonstration agents, under the
supervision of the United States de-
partment of agriculture and the state
colleges, are encouraging the growing
of brush and the making of brooms.
Alabama produces excellent broom
eorn| and the number of club girls in
that state who are interested in .this
work is increasing. Broom machines
by which 25 or 30 brooms can be turn-
ed out in a day are being bought in
som6 of the communities where the
work is well started. These are rent-
ed to the club members, who usually
pay in brooms for the use of the ma-
chine. It costs about 20 cents to make
a broom. When a girl has learned to
make a perfect product she is allowed
to use the label, “Home Demonstration
Club Broom,” on any she wishes to
sell. Many of the club girls plan to
pay college or normal school expenses
with the proceeds from their broom
work.
GIVE FLIES FULL ATTENTION
Little Labor With “Swatter” Now Will
Reduce Greatly Number to Be
Fought Later On.
Give your full attention to the exter-
mination of the flies that have hiber-
nated ail winter and are now com-
mencing to buzz around, urges the
United States department of agricul-
ture. A little labor with a “fly swat-
ter” now will reduce by hundreds if
not thousands the number which must
be combated this summer.
Don’t slam the door oh the reporter—talk to him.
Every city editor, every managing editor, every publisher of a neAvs-
paper wants to publish the truth. He wants both sides of every story and
he wants only facts. Many a reporter has beqn sent out of the local room
looking for a job because he wrote a little more than he knew to be true
Furthermore, reporters are all regular men. If the Average reporter
devoted the same energy to a business that he puts into getting and writing
news there would be more wealthy men in Chicago. A good reporter has
to think twice as fast as the person he is interviewing; he has to know
enough about diplomacy and tact to ask leading questions; he has to be
conscious of every situation that might arise,; he has to understand a trifle
before any one else just what a situation means.
Don’t be afraid of him when he jams his finger on your door bell and
rings it for an hour. He is a gentleman—he knows and appreciates life—
he will be fair and square—he is human and he is honest. Talk to him.
He’s a regular guy.

PERU’S DRIFTING SAND DUNES MORALE AIDED BY MUSIC
Plateau Shelf Has Strange Crescent-
Shaped Formations That Are
Packed Hard.
As one makes the ascent of the
Andes from the Pacific port of Mol-
Iendo, Peru, following the line of the
Southern of Peru railway, the climb
to the divide is broken by two great
steps or wldespreading shelves of des-
ert or pampa.
On the first of these steps, about
two hours’ steep climb from the sea,
and at an altitude of from four thou-
sand to five thousand feet, are located
the famous drifting sand hills of Peru.
The plateau is here about twenty
miles wide, the air thin and dry and
no trace of vegetation to be seen, only
these gigantic crescent-shaped sand
dunes dotting the pampa as far as
the e.|e can see.
Composed of fine gray crystal sand,
they gleam white against the brown
of the desert, and their horns point
toward the prevailing south wind of
this region. They are from fifteen
to twenty feet in breadth across the
thick part of the crescent and some-
times one hundred feet from horn to
horn. So tightly is the sand packed
that the feet of the horses or mules
make little impression on it.

Fact Brought Out by the War Bound
to Have Great Effect on Future
Generations.
“Music makes morale,” and ‘ so
promptly music was enlisted in the
war. Song leaders were appointed at
all the training camps and immedi-
ately the glory of real music .was
spread before the millions of men
as a reinforcement and aid to the
idealism which had brought them into
the war.
From then on the soldiers had mu-
sic individually, in masses, in groups.
They made it themselves, it was made
for them by our finest artists. They
had phonographs. They had records
by the millions. The process of musi-
cal education was swift, and the pu-
pils were apt. Now they have returned
to us men who know good music
as a large part of their life and en-
tertainment, have become reasonably
apt performers themselves in a great
many cases. What must this mean to
the country? It must mean that the
people as a whole are readier than
ever before to listen to it as well as
to be taught it.
An Inducement.

taurant are very steep.”
