IN speaking OF ST. I.onis county
politics the Duluth Saturday Night
aver. that "in the interest of a
square deal, the people of st. Louis
county outside of Duluth should
have adequate representation in the
government of the county. The
range should have more county
officers and larger share Of what.
ever patronage belongs to those
officers" Considering the fact that
the ranges pay fourtifths of the
taxes and that Duluth politicians
have heretofore been satisfied with
not less than four-fitths of the
plums, We opine the expression of
the Duluth Saturday Night will not
meet with u"enimous approval OF
the political powers of the county
seat.

What Kind is worsts

Many a nervous woman has occasion
to consider what kind of a noise is
most likely to Danish sleep 1t is not
strange that the crusade against un-
necessary noise should be led by a wo-
man, and that she should find thou
sand Of eager supporters among her

The country and the city present DIFF
ferent problems to the seeker for quiet.
The steady roar of the city street is
often less trying than the persistent
crow Of the early-rising rooster or the
clang of the cow bell The neighbor
who Sits coal ashes before light be-
longs to the same class with the one
who narrates his family affairs at
dawn under the window in a loud and
cheerful voice.
The shrek of the whistle, the call of
the newsboy, the rattle of the milk
cart are all 'trialsome," as a certain
old lady used to say of her children,
but perhaps the most unforgivable
noise for sensitive person is one
which recurs at slightly irregular in
tervals, and for long period The
drip of water pipe, the whine of a
dog, the slam of blind-these are
the noises which destroy temper and
sleep, even for well women. When one
has struggled through a night tor
tured by such Objectionable clamors,
one realizes the full meaning of the
poets dream Of peace, where SILENCE

WOOD STILL LEADS IN BUILDING

What the Government Reports on
Construction Show.
Reports collected by the government
from forty-nine of the leading cities of
the country show that in the last year
81 per cent of the buildings erected
were of wood and 80 per cent of fire
resisting material The figures do not
take into account the building done in
the smaller cities and rural commune

survey has concluded that wood is yet
and is likely to remain for many years

struction in the United States. If the
figures on the smaller cities were in

predominance of wood would be heav-

noted.

and stone with framework of steel

with the use of wood entirely" is a re

proof materials are now being used to
an extent almost undreamed of few

FAWNllixtA TWN THE
'Iff s|s4 VULGATE

The Yuigate, the Latin version of the
Bible, ordained by the Council of
Trent in April, 1916, to be the authentic
version for the Roman Catholic Church
is now, fifteen centuries after the death
Of Jerome, whose life work it was, to
be revised. The colossal work of re-
vising its text has been given to the or
der of the Benedictines, who finl that
they need funds to carry on the task
The pope has, accordingly. given she
Right Rev Francis A. Gasquet, abbol
president Of the English Benedictines
permission to accept a donation for the
purpose. The donor will be rewarded
by having his name placed on the front
page of the new version, an honor that
will carry his name down into the COM
ing centuries as no other monument
would. The Vulgate is itself 1900
years old, Jeromes translation having
been completed early in the fifth cen
fury, and some of the sacred writings
of the Old Testament go back fourteen
centuries B. c., so it is safe to assume
that the new version will be a monu-
ment more enduring than one Of brass.

There are fewer quilts on hats than

Feather trimming upon hats contin-

Ottoman silk is used for making hats
as well as fancy coats.
Most of the hat shapes give the eff
