what Henry watterson Thinks.

The women Of the smart set are equally
depraved with its men. They talk free
ly with the men Of things forbidden the
decent and the virtuous. They see the
worst French plays. The very question
of sex becomes interchangeable, and
sometimes 1t is the society girl and al
ways the horsey girl who kicks out Of
the traces and drags the set through the
mire
It is true that we have come to beau

Strikers Will Return to Work.

A Chicago special, dated the 9Th,
says:
Secret conference between represen-
tatives of the packers and the striking
butchers committee is in progress
today, looking to settlement OF the
strike. Manager Stainer, of the
Union stock yards and Transit COM
panies, spent more than an hour this
morning in consultation with the
strike leaders at the transit house.
1t is authoritatively stated that
President Donnelly held conference
Saturday night with Il. ]. Oonnors of
Armour & Co., and that he will meet
other representatives Of the packers
today.
1t is stated that plans have been
made for the Immediate return to
work of the strikers. 1t is also under.
stood that the packers agreed to put
the old men to work as fast as posi-
BILE at the old terms, the only condi
ton being that the unions call off the
strike.
AS a result of the efforts of thu
police to stop night picketing in tn
Yards, thirty eight men were locked VI
during the night. The Tribune toda'
saws that peace terms have been de
cided upon and that the return t
work of the $500 strikers at Ne'
York was the first move in that direc
ton.
}, President Donnelly with
drew his order calling out the mea
cutters, teamsters and market WACO
, drivers to refuse to handle any mea
until the strike was declared off. ID
said the order was not official an

A TEN-CENT STORE
This New Enterprise To Be Estab-
lished Here in a Short Time.

Tacoma is to have something new
in the way of q merchandise store
Mr. H. A. Landers, who has been in
the grocery business on Tacoma ave
nue. for the past, few years, an
nounced his intention to a Times rep
resentative today of opening what he
will term Landers9 loo Store, at 1107
Commerce street. I He says that the
price on every Article in his store
will be 10 cents mo more, no less,
just 10 cents. and it is surprising
what one can. buy for this nominal
sum. He will handle such articles
as dry goods, notions, glassware,
stoneware, pocket knives, perfumes,
lead pencils, kitchen utensils, and a
thousand and one. little articles use
full in every home and Office, as we'll
as toys, bats, balls, dolls, etc, for
the children. Everything will be dis
played on the counters and shelves in
plain view, so that shoppers can
readily see such articles as they may
want. Mr. Landers himself has a
large circle of friends who all join
in wishing him the greatest success
in his novel enterprise. and there is
no reason why he should not be sue
cessful, for similar stores in other
cities have always been very popular
shopping places among the house
wives. as we'll as with the men and
children. The goods have begun to
arrive, and, according to present in
dications, everything will be in readi-
ness for the opening this coming
week. $50

greatest gifts that America has given
to the rest of the world.
The potato was discovered and was
used as a food by natives of Ameri-
ca long before the discovery of the
continents by Europeans. For many
years after the potato was taken to
European countries it was cultivated
in gardens as a mere curiosity.
1t attracted little notice in Eng
land until it was a third time import
ed by Sir Walter Raleigh. 1t Is
thought that the introduction of the
potato has been Of greatest value to
European countries both financially
and as means of preventing the
terrible famines which at one time
were so common. In 1916 Ireland
knew a terrible famine brought on
by the failure of the potato crop.
This proves how dependent the land
had then become upon the once I'M
known vegetable.
Aside from the value of the potato
as a food, it possesses distinct val
ue as starch, potato sugar and pota-
to brandy.

expect soft corns to form unless you

The continued pressure causes a

ONE OF THE FAMILY
by Cynthia Grey.
8 eosoeeeoeeeoeooeos

To make a guest comfortable the
hostess often says, Now make your
self quite at home We shall treat
you as if you were one of the fam
lily"
1t is a question in social circles
whether or not IL is a compliment
to be made lone of the family"
There are those who claim that It
argues a strong friendship; that it
proves how much the hostess enjoys
the presence of the guest; that it is
a mark of highest esteem.
Another woman whose experience
has been different from her sisters,
argues that to be one of the family
means simply to eat whatever is left
from the last meal Whether or not
this is a mark of alteration must be
left to individual guests and host
esses.
The fact remains, however, that
''one of the family" means a num-
Der of things, some of them not en-
tirely Objectionable.
If to be one of the family means
that every door is open to the guest,
that every comfort is his, all free
dom in every particular, then it Is
certainly a compliment to be made
one of the family.
Too often, however, when a guest
is received as one of the family he
is given to understand that he is not
to be entertained, that he is to shift
for himself, so to speak, eat what
the family is accustomed to eat, re-
CARELESS of his own tastes and hab-
its, listen quietly to family jars and
in every way sacrifice his own com
fort that the routine of the family
life may not be disturbed.
What do you mean when you re.
quest a guest to consider himself
zone of the family?'
