New Russian Oil Fields.

A newly verified Russian oil field,
With an area of about 10000 square
miles, or about twice the size of the
New England states, now emerges
strangely from a mass of explorers
data to suggest pretty strongly that
current pessimism over the decreasing
output of the oil fields of the Caucasus
is not well justified. This new field,
according to Russia, the monthly organ
of r. Martens & Co., is located in the
Ural province, begins at the Caspian
sea, taking fanlike shape TO the north
as far as the town of Alexandrovsky
Gal, runs nearly due east TO the town
of Temir and from there in southerly
and southwesterly directions, following
the Emba river to the Caspian sea
again. Although an attempt was made
by the government to encourage the
commercial exploration of this coun-
try as far back as 1899, no serious de-
velopment work mad been done until a
very short time ago. Russia more now
than ever, is feeling effects Of the high
prices of petroleum and it's absolute
necessity has led to the discovery Of
these delds.-Wall Street Journal.

Don't drift, but steer. Dare to be
singular. Scorn to degrade yourself
by yielding up your individuality to
suit the within of the worthless.
Now and then a woman stands aside
from the crowd, labors steadfastly and
straightway the world wonders, adj
mires and crowns the determined
doer, and yet it only illustrates what
growing and exhaustless force each
woman might become If she took hold
of life with purpose.

Conundrums.

It is often said that love is blind,
and, judging by the experience of a
newly married couple, it hasn't much
sense of taste, either.
A few weeks after the wedding q
friend dropped into the bridegroom's
studio and found the artist and his
bride laughing heartily at some joke.
what ever is amusing you so
much?' he asked in amazement.
"Oh, it's been so funny" gurgled
the young wife, as she wiped the
tears of joy fren1 ner eyes. my hus-
band painted and I cooked this morn
ing, and now we are both trying to
guess what the things were meant
for.''

DECREASE IN LIQUOR OUTPUT.

Enective answer to the charge made
 by the liquor interests that "Prohibi- ton does not prohibit" Is furnished by the report of Commissioner Osborn of the internal revenue department
 Tor the fiscal year ending June 1, 1915. According to this report the manufac- ture of both distilled and fermented liquors has very materially decreased. The production of distilled liquors, exclusive of fruit brandies, was 42,- 477 1928 gallons less than for the pre- | ceding year. The figures for 1914 were 174,611,645 gallons, and for 1915, 132,- 134 1922. There has been a decrease of 6,358,744 in the number of barrels
 of beer manufactured, the number of barrels for 1914 being 66,105,445 and
 for 1915, 59,746,701.

 three months of the new fiscal year
 was 17,45S,565 barrels, as compared
 with 19.1S1 ,605 for the same months last year. Of distilled liquors there

BETHLEHEM'S OFFER TO U. S.

We hold no brief for the Bethlehem Steel Company, but that corporation has made to the United States gov ernment a most notable offer which demands and engages attention.
 The government at Washington has been thinking of putting $11 1,000,00O into an armor-making plant.
 The Bethlehem people, who are suf- fciently versed in the making of ar nor to know whereof they talk, terse- Fly lay down this propositions:
 "The Bethlehem Steel Company will manufacture armor plate for the government of the United States at actual cost of operation plus such charges for overhead expenses, inter est and depreciation as the Federal Trade Commission may fix We will agree to this for such period as the government may designate"
 This sounds like business patriot ism. Why shouldn't such proffer be met by a government?

REVIEW OF MICE AND MEN

Marguerite Clark, the fascinating little star of the Famous Players Film Company, who since her deser- tion of the stage has endowed the characterizations, most notable of which are her successful appearances in "Still Waters" and in the dual title roles of The Prince and the Pauper,' . adds another screen achievement that .surpasses all her previous triumphs in her delightful interpretation of the role of Peggy in the photo-production of the famous romantic comedy, ."Mice and Men" This role, in which such popular actresses as Annie Rus sell and Lady Gertrude Forbes-Rob- ertson distinguished themselves in New York and London, respectively, develops the impulses and whimsical ite3 of romantic youth, and it may therefore be readily seen that Miss Clark is eminently suited to this cip- tivating impersonation. With the ad- ditional interest contributed by a stirring dramatic conflict, and with the beautiful delineation of life and love as they were known in the South of 3 by-gone day, "Mice and Men" is one of the most exquisite Paramount pictures produced.
