 After calling attention to the reck- lessness of titled and prominent people in lending their names to these fake charities, the committee recommends state supervision throughout registra ton of charity funds.
 But" says the Daily Mail, that is not enough. First let us have the title of the bogus charities or the names of their treasurer Titled and prominent people who lend their names in this way place vicious and contemptible blot on our social sys- tenn, and it would do world of good if the names of these dummy patrons were published along with the frauds they helped to foster.'
 Many promoters have found the war charity gilt-edged investment the Daily Sketch deduces and adds: There are certain men and women in society who think that they have fulfilled most of their obligations to charity by allowing their names to go on every committee which writes to them."

ROYALTY LENDING
 NAMES ID FRAUDS
British Society Folk Taken in by
 Confidence Men

Correspondence of the Asso. Press)
 London, July 25.-London society has been stirred by the revelation that s'omc of it's titled and most prominent members have unwittingly been lend ing their names to fraudulent war charity organizations. The names of the frauds and of the leaders of Eng lands arist stOCracy who served on com- mittees were not given out by the government committee which made the disclosures.
 Following close on the heels of the report the founder of a war fund was arrested, speedily convicted and sen fenced to six months Imprisonment at hard labor for converting it's money to his own use. In passing sentence the court condemned widely known persons who had allowed their names to be used on dummy committees"
 Rumors that all was not straight in the affairs of many of the "charity" organizations which have sprung up since the outbreak of the war were heard early this year and resulted in the appointment of the committee. Its report bristles with stories of fake charities, astounding proof of the gullibility of mankind, and the case wherewith distinguished persons may be trapped into lending their names to what is described as "organized roguery."
 The report, for instance, refers to one charity that published no &C., counts, to another with a merely nom inal committee, to a third whose bal ance-sheet fails to account for a quar- ter of million dollars, to a fourth started by an undischarged bankrupt. to a fifth that was the invention of a foreign swindler. To all these the public gave freely.

 Besra is a green spot. It is like an oasis in a great desert. The date palms are festooned with vines which make a canopy, and fig trees and pomegranates with scarlet flowers, grow beneath.

You will be interested in seeing how a given amount of metal has been redis- tributed and 9 stronger part produced, or less amount of metal used and part equally strong produced.
 The diminished weight-and particu. larly the diminished nnsbrang weight means another increase in fire economy. Think of relieving the tires from direct pounding of unnecessary weight by mak- ing the front axle 30 per cent. lighter and the rear axle 25 per cent. lighter!
 Then the reduction of friction! Ball bearings, the closest approach to friction Jess mechanism, are used everywhere.
 With all this weight saving and elim- ination of "drag" comes greater ability at less expense, more comfort, greater safety-a saving of trouble and dollars.

Frowning caused by bad temper is
much worse, from the standpoint OF
correction. The wrinkles take GER

forehead and eyes but around the
mouth, that give a disagreeable. sour
expression. They seem to cut into
the very fiber of the skin, they are

Of course. their cure as well as
their prevention, is to watch yourself
and your disposition, to relax the
face at once as soon as you become
conscious Of the frown. In this way,
you will find that after a few days
you are aware Of the wrinkled fore
