OUR COUNTRY AND
OUR POLICY

/ cepted and approved by all but a
very small minority.
From this standpoint of tangible
national interest our commerce in
arms, until conditions change mater
tally, must remain what 1t is.
II is within the unpleasant posi-
bilities that we should be subjected
to measures so drastic as to compel
an equally drastic response. With
full consciousness of the extreme
gravity If our action we might be
compelled to resort to an embargo,
and this would be entirely within our
legal right.
But in present conditions our ma
tional interest lies in our present pol
ICY The financial and social benefits
to us from the commerce in arms are
substantial, and they are benefits we
could not well afford to waive. The
war has stricken this country. The
need of building up our information
al credit balance is plain. The need
for employing idle workers is great.
But there is another phase of this
commerce, which, though 1t is ignor-
ed, is of great importance. 1t has
developed our capicity for manufac-
turning arms and munitions of war,
and to that extent we have diminish
ed our unpreparedness for national
defense.
The importance Of being able to
provide arms and munitions of war
within ones own borders has been
acutely emphasized by the present
war. 1t may even prove to be the
decisive factor. Our supply of cop
per, Of iron, and other necessaries is
probably ample. But manufacturing
plants and trained direction and la
Dor also are necessary. These are
now being developed.
This war has tremendously empha-
sized the Importance of artillery, ma
chine gun, and great supplies or re-
sources of ammunition. 1t also has
brought about in America a develop
ment of this vital factor of defense
without the exhortation Of pure blind
congressman or the awakening OF
an uniformed and hence Indifferent
public.
The occasion for the growth Of
this necessary industry is tragically
deplorable, but since 1t has been
thrust upon us, 1t is the part OF
wisdom to make the most of it.

WRINKLES, OLD AND NEW

Wrinkles are the penalty a woman
pays for self neglect. They are ugly,
loathesome and quite inexcusable.
The time to cure wrinkles is long be.
fore they make their appearance.
The secret of youthful skin Is in
keeping the surface well oiled. so
that 1t will not succumb to the raw
ages of wind and sun and atmospher-
ic aust, and in supplying the tissues,
muscles, and glands with sufficient
exercise by means OF careful mes
sage, No other regimen so strength
ems and tightens the facial muscles
as messages. 1t is the only remedy
for wrinkles, which are caused by the
dissolving of the fatty tissues under
the skin and the dropping and relax.
ing OF muscular formations.
To tighten the skin by means of
surgery is to give but temporary re-
lief. Before beginning the treatment
the face should be bathed with warm
water and a pure soap, rinsed with
warm water and dried. This prelim-
mary puts the skin in condition to
accept the emollient and also pre-.
vents dust and powder from being
ground into the pores. The ordn-
airy cold cream or cleansing cream is
not suitable, because It does not af.
ford sufficient resistance TO the fin
gers. A heavy emollient is better.
The following formula is valua-
BILE one; One half ounce of white;
wax; one half ounce of spermaceti;
one ounce of cocoanut oil; one ounce
OF lanolin; two ounces OF oil of
sweet almonds. Melt in a porcelain
kettle; remove from heat and add
one ounce OF orange flower water;
three drops of tincture of benzoln.
Beat briskly with egg beater until
| creamy.
After the cheeks, forehead, chin
ana nose are carefully Amounted with
the skin food the upward stroking
with the fiattened palms should fol-
low. This is called the effleurage or
glazing movement. Place the bottoms
Of the palms Of the hands ON either
side of the neck and follow slowly
and lightly up the sides OF the face.
This process is directed to the
deeper tissues and is known as the
kneading motion, out the lympth
channels, and the next which action
tones the muscles, soothes the nerves
and is followed of the fatigue toxins.
That Is why woman always feels
rested after having facial treat
ment.

TIPS AND WAGES

The excuse for federation of the
tipping system has commonly been
that walters, porters. and other SER
wants are paid such low wages that
they must have liberal tips in order
to live. With this in view, many
men nowadays in city restaurants
hand out half dollar tip. The trav-
cling salesman or impecunious trav-
eller who can't play the game on this
level is subjected to many annoy
ances.
Pullman sleeping cars porters tes-
tifying before the Industrial Rela-
tions committee the past week, re-
ported very liberal wages as the re-
suit Of the tipping system. One man
said that his salary was s42 a month
and his tips averaged SIS. Other
cases were similar.
The average man employed in Pull
man ear porter work throughout the
country could not probably earn s117
month in other employment. A
frequent result Is that by flattering
and obsequiously waiting on wealthy
people, while neglecting others, they
win a wage above the average level.
Thus they gain money at the cost
of loss of independence.
II the tipping system were held
down to a reasonable level, 1t would
not always increase the cost Of tray
Ell. If all the customers of the av-
erage hotel should at once stop tip.
ping the hotel managers would have
TO increase wages. Probably then
they would increase prices.
But the tipping system annoys the
feeling that they are victims of a
public with growing size of tips
graft, yet bothered by the fear Of
being unfair to work people. The mar
with the threadbare clothes is slight
ed and sneered at, while the one will
the costly tailored suit is fawned up
on. 1t Is undemocratis and contrar!
to American principles.

VALUABLE DEVICES FOR
THE MILK PLANT

Many operators of milk plants will
in the opinion of specialists of the
Department of Agriculture find 1t
profitable TO install recording Their.

for controlling the temperature dur

proper temperature control is fire.
quently found to be the cause AIDE.
quate control of the temperature by
means OF hand valves is difficult and
often impossible. On the other hand
there are many automatic devices
which accomplish this with great &C
curacy Their cost is commonly less
than $3.50 and allowing maximum
depres iation OF 20 per cent and in
terest this makes the daily overhead
expense for the regulator about II
cents or less than the value OF a
mans time for one hour. As mat
ter of fact, without automatic con
troll, man has TO spend the greater
part of his time at the steam valve
II the Temperature is to be kept with
in the proper limits. The amount OF
steam required TO operate the auto
matte device is less than that which
would otherwise be wasted.
Frequent variations in temperature
which 1t is almost impossible to pre-
vent with hand valves, may not only
injure the cream line but produce, az
well, unsatisfactory results, from the
meteorological and chemical stand
points. For this reason some of the
larger cities now require the dealers
TO put intemperature regulators and
there is reason 10 believe that Others
will follow their example in the nea
future. '7"lSN

WHAT is THE NAVY FOR,
ANYHOW

Rear Admiral Fiske's resignation
as laid for operations" to the seere-
tary of the navy again raises the in
teresting question, Is the United
States navy a fighting machine or is
II a mere educational institution for
the improvement of its personnel? Al
though the admiral. who is one of
the most distinguished naval experts
in the country's service, is much too
strict q dsciplinarian to talk for
the public as to the reasons which
prompted him to ask for another as
signmelt, II is well understood that
his retirement from staff duty Is the
elimination of long standing dis
agreement with Secretary Daniels
and that he represents the views Of
the naval service as a whole.
The difference between the secre-
tary and his professional advisers
seems to be that the latter believe
that efficiency as military organic
alton should he the primary aim of
the department, while the secretary
shares with Secretary Bryan the
view that the navy is a convenient
medium for experimentation in vari
Gus forms Of humanitarian endeavor
and for the exercise of practical
politics. form of activity In which
they are mot efficient This radical
difference was brought into acute
contrast few months ago, when Adj
miral Fisk gave the house committee
on naval affairs. as he was bound to
do, his unvarnished opinion concern
ing the efficiency and preparedness Of
the navy. II did not please the Sec
rotary to have the nation informed,
on the authority of an expert of such
high rank, that the navy was without
a guiding military policy, and 1t had
fallen off in gunnery, was without suf-
ficient men to man the ships in case
of emergency, and that the personnel
hhu oihNN
that testimony was given, it is said,
the recommendation of Admiral
Fiske for the improvement of the SER
vice have been studiously ignored by
the secretary.
This conflict Of opinion and policy
Is deeply to be regretted, for the re-
tirement of Admiral Flske seems 10
indicate that he and those who agree
with him regard the situation hope
less so long as Secretary Daniels
continues TO be entrusted with the
grave responsibility of controlling
this most important weapon of ma
tional defense. The public will soon
learn the true conditions, however,
and President Wilson is likely to
come to an early realization that Sec
rotary Daniels may be too heavy a
burden to carry in 1915 Philadel-
