GOLD DUST
instead OF soap

You really don't need soap
in the house, except for toilet
and bath, and possibly a little
for your fine laces and lingerie.
With Gold Dust-the all round
cleanser-you can do all your
household cleaning more
quickly
than you can with soap or any
other cleanser.
Gold Dust does the work
better, too. Soap only cleans
off the surface; Gold Dust goes
into every corner cleaning and
purifying, = driving out the
germs as well as the dirt.
Best Of all, you don't need
any elbow grease with Gold.
Dust does the work itself.

Three words as with a golden pen,
In tracinRs of eternal light,
Upon the hearts of men:
Have Hope! Though clouds environ

And gladness hides her face in

Put thou the shadow from the brow
No night but has its morn.
Have faith faith where'er thy bark is
The calm's resport, the tempest's

Know this: God rules the host Of

The inhabitants of earth.
Have love! Not love alone for one,
But man as man thy brother call. :.
And scatter. like the circling sun, I

Thus grave these words upon thy

The Hon. Herbert NJ. Wilson, Chief Engineer
Of the United States Geological Survey
Bureau, made public some Of the excellent re-
suits obtained by the Bureau in its efforts to
conserve the created resources Of the nation
In an analysis Of effects, the fact stood out
prominently that much Of the fire waste was
due to fires extending beyond the limits OF the
buildings in which they originated. Exact hg-
ures we're not obtainable by the Bureau, but a
conservative estimate indicated that at least
30 per cent Of the losses resulted from fires
extending beyond the building Of origin. Thus
one-third Of the total IRE losses in the United
States are due TO the inhammable construction
Of American buildings.
only $67,oo00OO Of the loss IN 1911 were due
to fires In brtok, concrete and other siow-hurn-

amount or $3.50 $50 622 was in frame build

cluded the assembling of information relative

Of construction, the former for the prevention
OF CONGREGATIONS and the latter for the pre-
vention OF the destruction OF the building In
which fire starts. The investigations were d.
vided into three groups. The first included
cement, concrete and reinforced concrete, tile.
brick and other clay products building stone
ana gravel. Inc second concerned the relative
FIRE risk in the storage and transportation Of
such liquid fuels gasolene, kerosene and
alcohol and the third related to the risks OF
storing and handling explosives.

may hope to greatly reduce the use and
waste Of the more perishable and less abundant
timber and iron resources now so generally
supplied in building construction. This con-

Reviews of the New Books By Edwin Markham, Rosu

tating from the more familiar flot-
sam and Jetsam-and so Miss Meth
ersole quotes the dictionary
Wilsam is a story of the develop
ment of a Waif into a girl. and of the
girl into a woman. Its scene Is laid
in the hop growing country of Eng
land and ii deals with types perhaps
little known to Americans but still
brothers and sisters TO humanity.
Let US say now that Miss Neither
sole has written a powerful nOvel-a
novel that deserves to be classed with
the best of the year. Perhaps a little
long. vet its pages thrill with the
blood of real life-she proves that
wild adventure and exciting episode
are not needed when the hand is
skilled enough and the eye clear
enough to paint the short and simple
annals of the poor" as sympatheti-
cally as they should be painted.
There is. therefore, no tremendous
story to tell any more than in many
famous novels Miss Nethersole's
style and manner of treatment bring
