PAINT NOW

If you ought to have painted last
year and waited, how much do you
think you made?
You'll buy an extra gallon this
year. There's SIS or Sc for paint and
labor. You think you won't, but you
will; you can't stretch paint.
1t is always so; the longer you
wait, the more paint and wages. Be-
sides what paint is for. What is it
for?

TRiCKING SUBMARINES.
Russs by Which Vessels May Escape
Their Torpedo Attacks.

1t Is the surprise attack which in
nearly every case enables submarine
to torpedo a hostile ship. There are
several maneuvers by means of which
a ship can trick submarine. Several
vessels have diverted torpedoes by
swinging round their stern until it
points in the direction Of the undersea
craft. In this way the wash of the
propellers has detected the torpedo
from its course and 1t has sped harm
lessly past its mark. Another success
full ruse is to stoke up the furnaces of
a ship chased by submarine, and
tunnels and envelops the vessel In
protective shroud. In this way the sub
marine gunners are confused and can
not perceive the correct direction in
which to send their torpedo.
A speedy ship which follows an er-
ratio. zigzag course presents a poor
mark to submarine. When q torpedo
Is dispatched against fast travelling
vessel 1t is directed to a point just
ahead Of its mark. and the craft lit
orally runs into the death dealing de-
vice. This obviously cannot happen,
however, If ship is swinging rapidly
from side to side and alternately point.

stern to the undersea marksmen.
A submarine seldom attacks a vessel
II 1t is not alone, for 1t can only attack
one at time, and while it Is launching
torpedo at its first mark the second
vessel has an excellent opportunity Of
ramming the submarine. which can be
located by its telltale periscope.-Pear-

100000 NEW YORK WOMEN
PLAN BIG ONE DAY STRIKE.
Suffra9ists Hope to Prove Women's
Place 10 Not Alone In tine Homo.

The great one day strike of New
York women planned to show the
strength of women in the industrial
and business world, has been decided
upon at conference Of representatives
OF thirty wOmen's suffrage and trade
organizations.
The strike will be arranged to in
clude 100000 women workers in New
York city, but will extend to many
nearby communities and probably more
distant localities Of New York state.
1t will take place around the first Of
October and will be the forerunner of
nation wide, one day strike of wo-
men that will have the same object
to answer the often advanced argu-
ment of the anti-suffragists that two
mans place is in the home"
The conference considered the well
fare of working girls with families de-
pendent upon them who might lose
their positions by joining the strike.
1t was afterward announced that a
fund will be provided to take care of
them
The conference was called by Mrs.
Norman de II. Whitehouse, chairman
of the publicity committee of the EN-
F., pire State campaign committee OF the
combined suffrage organizations and
originator of the strike idea.
''There Is tremendous amount Of
detail to be arranged" said Mrs.
Whitehouse, Ito insure the success Of
our plans. which will be more definite
In week or so. There was no ques-
ton at the conference today but that
the strike is desirable in the judgment
Of the trade and political organizations
represented"

OFF by French Government.
The French government has advised
the state department that no practjca-
BILE way exists Of collecting duty on
cigars, tobacco, cigarettes and other
delicacies that are mailed from this
country by friends Of soldiers serving
in the trenches along the battle front
In France and Belgium and therefore
such articles should be barred from
the mails.
Postmaster General BurlesOn, on re-
ceiving this information sent out a
general circular to all postmasters to
warn the public that tobacco and ci-
gars and similar articles cannot be
sent through the mails to the French
soldiers. The same prohibition applies
to German prisoners of war held In
France, \ large number of packages
of cigarettes and cigars have accumu-

will on application. be returned to the

ROCKEFELLER AIDS SEE
IMMUNITY FROM CANCER.
Discover Means They Hope Will Make
Man Proof Against Disease.

Announcement has just been made
Of another remarkable discovery by
the Rockefeller institute--a discovery
whereby immunity from cancer, it Is
hoped, may be procured.
To Drs. James B. Murphy and John
j. Morton, Investigators of the insti-
tute, belongs the credit of the discov-
cry. For more than two years they
have been working out their theories.
Their results have just been anDounc-
ed through the Academy of Science
at Washington.
Although at present no promise Of
cure is held out TO victims of cancer
as result of the discovery, yet it is
hoped in time further researches will
lead to discoveries through which cures
will be made
Up to the present time the expert
ments have been confined to mice, and
in every instance they have been amaZ-
ingly successful.
In the white lymph cells of the
blood has been found the necessary
factor in making animals immune from
cancer.
The crux Of the discovery Is this
"A great increase Of the white lymph
corpuscles-an increase either natural
or brought about by injection Of lymph
tissue-gives absolute immunity from
the dread disease. Where such an in
crease does not take place the cancer
grows at once and proceeds with viru.
lent rapidity."
The little white lymph corpuscle-
lymphOcytes-for which Drs. Murphy
and Morton claim such Importance In
preventing cancerOus grOwths, are but
one twenty-five hundredth of an inch
In diameter. They are much rarer In
the blood than the red corpuscles, one
white cell being found for every 500 or
600 red cells.
Two kinds Of animals were found to
be immune from cancer--those natural.
ly immune and those In whom immuni-
ty was induced by previous injection
Of living tissues containing the doughty
white lymph cells.
