From Canada

w. C. Reed, OF Irma, Canada, for
merly OF Herndon, seem to have
found n cool spot on which to
enjoy life, according to his letter,
which follows:
"wnl try to give you a few lines
from this far off country. II is
nice weather now, a few inches of
snow. Last month we had two or
three weeks OF very cold weather
for November II was thirty below
zero for several days. Guy In
%threshing this neighborhood now.
We threshed last week, the four
boys and myself, had about 5000
bushels oats, 2i00 bushels wheat.
Our wheat Is badly frosted but our
oats are good. Guy has threshed
so some odd thousand bushels and
the crop Is about 2-3 threshed. We
look for u to snow and stop the
threshing anytime.

The Use of Liquor Growing

Washington Dec. 6.-The annual
report OF Royal Il. Cabell, commits
sioner OF internal revenue, given
out here today, makes several
startling declarations.
All records we're broken In the
last fiscal year in the production
OF alcohol,s liquors.
The smoking OF opium is n wide
spread vice in this country and
opium "joints" exist In every city
oi considerable size.
The double system OF taxing oleo
margarine is corrupting grocers,
and gross frauds are being perpe-
trasei on the butter buying public.
The Internal revenue receipts last
year were 1921, 528,2os, the great
est In the history OF the govern
ment.
Corporations making returns un-
der the rev corporation tax law
numbered 27O,2O2, with an aggre-
gate capital OF SCI, $50, i3o,5i9. The
aggregate net income TO the stock
holders was $3.50, 25o,6i2.
The years production OF dis
titled spirits amounted to I75,io2, 3o5
gallons. nearly 100000 gallons
more than in the previous banner
year, 1907. The production of beer
ale, ETC., amounted to 63,2i6,s51
barrels, nearly 1000, 900 barrels more
than in the previous record year,
1910.
The amount OF liquor held In
bonded warehouse for ripening
now reaches the enormous total OF
2~ie,37s,3i6 gallons.
To remedy the oleomargar!ne SIT
uation, Mr.. Cabell suggests that
fraud would be wiped out II a sim
gle standard OF taxation for the
colored and uncolored product be
established, and II the manufac-
lures be required to put their pro-
duct In small sealed packages In
stead OF selling II in bulk.

ing her out, the stamp stuck to
the envelope and let the pen hold
err. The keys were In a bunch, so
the pencil lead them away and let
the paper weight. At this the knife
stepped ", cut out the fight and
silence reigned supreme
An exchange calls attention to
the extravaganza Of the age in this
way: Fifty years ago our grand
fathers could saddle a $40 horse,
take a fine redchceked girl up be-
hind him, 60 to town and treat her
to five cents worth Of peanuts and
both go home happy. Now a young
chap has to invest 500 In rubber
tired buggy, $500 In a team of driv
ing horses, s25 in a set OF harness,
or $1,000 In an auto instead OF the
buggy and team, and pay $i.oo a
pound for chocolates. Then the
young society bud may turn up her
nose at the young mans efforts to
entertain her.

After Mrs. Belmont had purchased
the house at ID East Forty-frst street,

autumn, the association was for some
time uncertain as to its future course.
Mrs. Belmont invited il to taxi up

the rooms which could be given up
for its use were on two floors it was
decided not to accept the invitation.

continue there. but the State Woman

had its Headquarters there, has made

The use of too much sugar will often

Strawberry anad raspberry ices are

Friendship on the Wane.

Dear Miss Poynter:
l nave known q young man for ov.r
a year. and have gone out with him
quite frequently.
The last time we were out oil the
way home he acted very coolly towards
me, and for what reason l don't know,
and when he left he seemed again to
act as he used ~to-very friendly.
He has always written me letters
telling me when he would call. but since
then ] have not seen him. nor has he
written, and / cannot understand his
actions, and do not know of anything
| might lave done to offend or in any
way cause this feeling towards me.
| think very much of him. and value
his friendship greatly. and will appre-
ciate it IL you advise me what to do.
Would it be proper for me to write
him. or should l wait and let him do
so first? He is of a somewhat Jealous
disposition. Thanking you / am
D. p. l..
If you are sure that you have done
nothing to Justify his taking offense do
not write to him, but let him make the
first advance. If he is just tired of
your friendship you will only lessen
his regard for you by appearing anx-
ious for his attentions. A man always
likes to do his own counting, and does
not feel attracted TO the woman who
is ready to help him along. If his re-
gard for you is sincere he will soon ex-.
plain the reason for his conduct. If the
reason is not a good one let him see
that you are not pleased and give him

amount of labor is involved. In the IL
lustration ~marquisette is trimmed with
lace and embroidered banding, but for
gowns of this kind can he utilized every
thin material that can be tucked sue
cessfully. Cotton nets, both plain and
lowered. are being extensively worn
this season and would be charming so
made. Lawn, batiste and the like are
quite as appropriate as the marqui-
settle. and thin soft silks are made In
seams over the shoulders and under
arm seams only. the sleeves being out
in one with 1t. The skirt is five gored.
The trimming is all applied on indicat-
ed lines. The combination of wide and
narrow banding Is effective and fash
ionable, but II something still daintier
is wanted the wide banding could be
omitted and some simple design m
~broidered in the spaces so left, and this
design could be worked in French style
