Women at War!

We do not mean the Amazons, the
dynamiters, nor the militants.
But those good women so dear to our
hearts who make our homes for us.
These wholesome folks have a treaty
with cleanliness that keeps them ever at
war against dirt and uncleanliness in
all it's forms.
Soap, if you work hard enough with
1t, will make things clean, but it won't
kill germs.
Borax mixed in proper proportion with
soap will make the soap work better and
your work easier. Also borax kills
germs.
So that by using borax soap chips you
get things clean with less work than by
the old methods and you also get them
antiseptic.
Zoe. worth of 30 Mule Team Borax Soap
Chips" will give you more cleanliness
with less work than SOC. worth OF bar

THE REAL RUSSIA.
II Is Confined to Very Small Section
of the Vast Empire.


In THE Russian Empire, Today and
Yesterday Nevin o. Winter says:
an strict sense, real Russia COW
ers only portion of the more than
100000 square miles that lie within
the borders OF the continent. This
narrower definition would certainly
eliminate Finland. Poland, the Baltic
provinces, BesSara bia and the Cauca
sus and probably part of the land or
the Don Cossacks, the Crimea and the
sections bordering on the Arctic ocean
and the lower Volga. In other words.
the real Russia has developed within
this narrower section. and whatever
of Russian characteristics appear in
the eliminated sections have simply
been imposed by the conquerors upon
a people alien by birth and language.
THE actual visible influence Of Toll
stoy on Russia seems not to have been
great He was beloved and reverence
ed by many, but no party claims or
has ever claimed him as leader. The
higher classes rejected him because or
his opposition to all established gov
eminent: the peasantry were repealed
by his diatribes against religion; the
revolutiOnists and anarchists repudiat-
ed his teaching because he had no
definite plan to offer. His influence on
thought and opinion in Russia will
not compare with his influence in non
Russian nations"
