lection of American commerce. par ticularly American commerce carried in American ships; for. in the event of a war in which this country was in- volvcd, neutral shipping would be per mittcd to ply freely to our mblockaded ports, and to transport all goods with out molestation, save contraband of war alone. Yet, in ignorance of the real conditions which prevail in ship ping. there are many who have ad- vcrscly criticised the sending of a fleet of battleships to the Pacific.
 As a matter of fact, the American tonnage engaged in the foreign trade from the few Pacific ports, in the az gregatc is more than two-thirds as great as the aggregate of the American tonnage engaged in foreign trade from all of the Atlantic ports collectively. The aggregate American tonnage from the port of Puget sound alone is ouj of all proportion greater in the aggrc- gate than all from the Atlantic ports collectively. with the exception of New York alone. The other forty-nine At lantic ports. taken collectively have far less American tonnage to be pro- tectcd by a navy than has the one port of Puget sound alone; and in it's ship ping in foreign trade Seattle alone far outranks Baltimore, Boston and Phila- deIphia together. The following fig ures are from the monthly summary of Commerce and Finance
 In total American tonnage clearing in the foreign trade from all of the Atlantic ports during the eight months ending with August of this year was; Sail l6OOS3; steam, l,216.962; total. 1.377.045. of this tonnage there clear od from New York sail 34.069; steam 7aa. .4f1. ar.a tatal of S33,4S0, Thus the other forty-ufne Atlantic ports. col- lcctiyrly had but 743.565 tons of Am ericau shipping clearing in their for eiga trade during the eight months During th. same interval there cleared from the single Pacific port of Puget sound American sail tonnage to the aggregate uf Gl.o&3. and American steam tonnage tn the aggregate of 552,- s77. or total of 6lS0l0, or 74.445 more tons of American shipping going for cign from this ouc port than from for ty-nine Atlantic ports-all of the ports on the Atlantic with the exception of New York alone.
 The American sail tonnage from this port was nearly twice as great in the aggregate as tue American sail ton- nag from New York and the Ameri- can steam tonnage clearing from this port during the eight months aggre- gated just short of 6S per cent of the volume of the American steam tonnage clearing from New York the only American ocean port which beeinr to compare with Puget sound iV the ol- ume of its American tonnage eng,@'d d in foreign trade, and therefore entitled to protection by our warships. let the relatively petty American shipping from such ports as Boston, Phtadtl. pha and Baltimore. totaling collective.

LYDIA E. PINKHAM

Nature and a woman's work com,
pined have produced the grandest
semedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good ld-fashioned days Of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years IN
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs OF the
field Lydia Z. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their Pc
culiar ills, more potent and etfica.

"For twelve years l had been suffer

DID you EVER STOP TO THINK OF THE ADVANTAGES OFFERED
IN CARSON CITY IN AN INVESTMENT WAY?

Do you have people apply to you every day for houses to be rented,
furnished and unfurnished?
We ar here to tell you that at the present time a few thousand
dollars invested in the erecting Of modern houses in Carson City would
bring the investor a greater amount of interest than any banking stock
ever ut o the market, not excepting the enormous dividends paid to
the stockholders of the State Bank & Trust Company.
At the present time the rents in this city are abnormal, considering
the facilities offered, and the people are asking for and demanding mod
ern homes and arr willing to pay the price.
The result Of the lack of houses is driving families from the city
and In many cases heads of families travel back and forth in the trans
action of business affairs rather than put up with what is offered in the
way Of rentable houses and the prices asked.
With the brewery project working ot o a successful issue and the
announcement that the smelter in Brunswick Canyon will soon be under
way the need of homes in this city becomes more urgent and opens up
a ear OF printable investment unequaled in few towns o the Pacific
Coast.

A Joyful Thanksgiving

A clergyman in one of the large north
ern cities raises his voice i'm behalf of a
more religious observance or Thanksgiv-
ing Day.
He asserts that the day is turned into
one of feasting and not of fasting. He
thinks that the occasion should be one
of Joy and merrymaking, but he also de-
clares that besides this it has been turned
into display OF hypocrisy on a national
scale"
Further the minister observes that the
day is largely given to all sorts of sports
and festivities and the attendance at the
Thanksgiving services in the churches is
slight.
1t is rather hard to answer the charge
made by the eminent divine. because of
the truth OF the statement. Yet there
are extenuating circumstances In the
case.
For instance. it is a day of recreation
to the vast throng of working people
throughout the country; 1t is a holiday
for the school girl and the school boy;
and while pleasure plays large part in
the days pastime, its name survives and
its significance is not forgotten.
In this part OF the country the Thanks
giving services in the churches are well
attended, and it is one of the main points
in "A Joyful Thanksgiving to gather
in the sanctuary and render thanks for
the many blessings accorded us

The Thanksgiving Salad

In view OF the heavy meat course and
other substantial food which the good
housewife always provides for the
Thanksgiving menu, it is a mistake to
serve also a meat or other rich salad.
Instead, this dish should be light in
composition and of a nature to put an
edge on the already satisfied appetite
for the sweets which are yet to come,
The recipes given below are especially
suited to such a purpose and further,
may be made attractive to the eye as
we'll as to the palate;
Apple and Cheese Salad-Select fine APP
ples of good flavor. Pare and core, then
cut them into lengthwise sections Of
uniform size and dip each into sweetened
sherry Cut cream cheese into thin
lengths. Arrange this and the apples for
individual serving in lettuce cups, using
for the purpose the crisped inside leaves
of head lettuce. Dress at the table with
mayonnaise or French dressing, as pre-
ferred.
Celery and Cabbage Salad-Take equal
measurements of nicely bleacied tender
celery cut into small pieces and firm
White caDDdBe SnTeuueu very iiho oh II
slaw cutter Arrange the cabbage in the
bottom of shallow salad bowl and heap
the celery upon it. Sprinkle the top
with minced green peppers and dress with
salad dressing.
Pepper Salad in Cucumber Cases-Cut
round from the stem end of six small or
three large green sweet peppers, and
SCOOP out the seeds. Then wash clean
and soak an hour in salt water. Drain
off the water and chop the peppers fine.
Add a minced onion and one or two
stalks of chopped celery. Toss together
and season with salad dressiAg. Serve in
cucumber cases, made by cutting
lengthwise slice from cucumbers and re-
moving the seeds. Or, II remote from
market, serve in cups made of blood beets
cooked tender, then carefully followed
out
Tomato Jelly Salad-Strain the liquor
from a quart can of tomatoes and bring
it to a boil Then season TO taste with
salt, pepper onion juice and lemon juice
Stir into the mixture one-third of
package of gelatin previously dissolved
in cold water to cover. Take at once
from the fire and pour into small moulds
or cups and stand on ice or in cold
place, until thoroughly concealed. Then
arrange on lettuce leaves for individual
serving and dress with mayonnaise.

Kitchen Neatness

What we need Is a gospel of kitchen
clothes, then perhaps we will discard
the worn out doctrine that anything is
good enough in which to do housework.
AS it is, an observer is bound to re-
mark that kitchen clothes may be divided
into three sorts: First, the dressing
sacque, worn with an old nondescript
skirt; second, the cheap, ready-made
wrapper, which is far from attractive in
appearance, though it has some good
qualities; third, worn-out finery such as
ancient silk waists and frocks, with most
of the trimmings ripped off and in a gem
eral state of forlorn dilapidation. Right
