Each French workingman pays
about three-fourths of a days wages
every week for war alone, not count

In Germany and France alone
$5,000,000,000 is practically set aside
from commerce in order to produce,
at 5 per cent interest, enough to keep
the two countries ready to fight each

her hair would have been pulled

She was leaning over the tub

revolving rollers of the wringer.
Trying to free herself her hand also
became caught. This fortunately
threw off the belt.
A little daughter Of Mrs. Elwick

happened. She telephoned Mr.. Ell

about 10 minutes, Mrs. Elwick was
compelled to stand with her hair
and hand in the wringer. Mr.. Ell

ture to request congress to return
to this state the statue Of Senator

From time to time the news

humorous remarks about the statu-
airy hall or the hall Of fame" said
ingalls,. at seems to me that there
Is a growing sentiment in the en-
tire country that the hall is a use
less adjunct Of the capital. The
original idea Of having the states
thus honor their two most illustrious
men was patriotic but for some rea-
son or other the hall has become
the butt of the jokesmiths and the
leading artists and public men at
the present time now regard the hall
as "a chamber of horrors"
