WASHINGTON

Secretary of State Lansing said that
the reply of the British government
on the American protest against the
British blacklist" probably would not
be made public for several days"
Treasury officials are considering
whether the initials of designer of the
new dime just put in circulation shall
be eliminated and coinage suspended
temporarily as was done in the case
of the original Lincoln 1-cent piece.
Still another export record has been
broken. The total value of goods
shipped out of this country in Septem-
Der was S512,S47,95 or $4,000, 900
more than for Augurt, when exports
first passed the half billion mark for
a single month.
At President Wilson's direction, the
state department sent cablegram to
Emperor Yoshihito of Japan express
ing greetings from this government on
the occasion of the official observance
of the thirty-seyenth anniversary of
the emperor's birth. Hope was ex.
pressed that the emperors reign would
be "one of further progress and pros.
perity."
The governments sixteenth annual
chrysanthemum show opened Mon
day. and will continue thruout the
week in the exhibit houses of the de-
partment of agriculture. The exhibit
includes $50 varieties, many of them
from England. France. Australia and
Japan.
After receiving unofficial informa-
tion that six Americans had lost their
lives by the sinking of the British
steamship Marina, President Wilson
communicated with Secretary of State
Lansing and directed that all possible
haste be taken In obtaining the facts.

Cartoonist Charles MacauIey
Plans for Permanent Propa-
ganda Picture Series.
TO BE IN SHORT LENGTHS
Many Subjects in Addition to
International Question VIII
Be Regularly Exploited.

The first step toward the use OF
the motion picture In a permanent
way for propaganda work along
interesting educational lines Will
probably be adopted by the League
to Enforce Peace, which held its
first annual assembly in this city
last week.
Charles r. Macauley. the distin-
guished cartoonist, who Is the vice
chairman OF the committees Of in
formation of the league, has re-
Gently perfected a plan for the dis
tribution of special short-lengtn
subjects to motion picture houses
which has been approved by the
best known distributing agencies
and will be put into immediate
execution.
For the past two years, since re-
signing his position as cartoonist on
the New York World, Mr.. Macauley
has been at work on developing a
plan for the use of the publicity
motion picture theaters offer in a
practical way for subjects of ma
tional interest. lie has developed
an idea for getting before the peo-
pie short film essays dealing
with matters that are of vital in
terest to the community and tndi-
vidual.
Within the next few weeks for
NAL announcement of the program
that will be followed by his organi-
zation will be made. 1t Is under
stood that the subjects OF prepared
ness and of the plan of the League
to Enforce Peace will have place on
this program. The preparedness
films have been made and are said
to be entirely different from any
thing of the kind yet seen.

Would Make Her Shrink.

The introduction of Ann Penning-
ton, the diminutive star of Ziegfeld's
1.-THE Follies," to motion picture
work resulted in a curious situation
at the Famous Players studio last
week. II the original plan Of the
director of the picture had been car
ried out Miss Pennington would
have been the first person every seen
in the world who shrank instead of
grew as she became older.
In the early scenes of the Aim
story the star is supposed to he a
child. To make these scenes the di-
rector secured little girl twelve
years of age who looks something
like Miss Pennington. and who has
worked in a number of pictures.
The first scenes were being taken
with the child and Miss Pennington
was standing near the camera watch
ing the action. While the director
was giving Instructions the child and
Miss Pennington fell into CONVERSE
ton and drew rather close to one
another. The director turned. saw
his star and the little girl and howled
an order to destroy the film that had
beer taken. The child was three
inches taller than Miss Pennington.

in the early scenes in the remaining
section of the picture where Miss

Supplies and Sewers

Bonds! bondsi" shouted Supervisor
Larsen at last nights board meeting.

Larsen declares that there is too
much attention centered on the need
of the city for new roads, and not
enough on itssneed of better fire pro-
lection and sanitary service.

are totally inadequate to supply water
for a really big fire" he said. And
there are many streets where there
are no fire hydrants at all What are
we going to do? Wait till han the
town burns down some timer"
Larsen believes, as does Harry MUIR
ray, manager of the department, that
the cost Of maintaining the sewer de-
partment should come from the gem
eral fund and sewer connections made
with every dwelling In Honolulu as q
sanitary protection for the rest of the
people of the city, not only as a con-
venience for the holder Of the priv
ilege.
He said last night that as soon as;
definite bond issue was proposed by:
the board he would see. that pro-
vision was made IN It for the gradual
extension Of the sewer system to-
every street and alley in the city,

peared to make the suggestion, which

the land in forest reserve instead of

ture from the fact that the park plans
were taken up with the governor by
the Ad Club and it is supposed he re-
fefied them to the land commissioner.
The meeting today was the first

of commissioners, and much business
was transacted, largely routine. The

Because of the heavy snowfall last
winter. Forest rangers found it neces-
sary this spring to remove two feet OF
snow from the Beaver Creek Nursery
in Utah, so that the young trees
might be uncovered by the time they
we're needed for spring planting on the
National Forests of the region. Part
of the snow was taken off by use OF
shovel and pick. By spreading a thin
layer of fine soil over another part,
the natural melting of the snow was
FASTENED sufficiently to make shovel
ing unnecessary.

INTESTINAL
INDIGESTION
Can Be Permanently Relieved
Only by Making the
Liver Active.

Intestinal indigestion Is shown by natu-
lsnce, constipation, and sometimes attacks
Of diarrhOea which have no apparent
cause. You may not have known it, but
the intestines must digest food as well as
the stomach. So while your stomach di-
gestion may be all right, you may easily
have intestinal indigestion or dyspepsia
"a trouble that is often harder to over
come than stomach trouble.
The digestive fluid in the bowels Is the
bile-bile Is furnished only by the liver,
and II Is lack Of enough OF this fluid that
causes indigestion.
Then the only way to relieve Intestinal
indigestion and the symptoms noted above
Is TO put the liver in good shape. That s
why oil and laxatives that only act on
the bowels are no good whatever in this
kind OF trouble. The sure way to get
relief is to take Natures Kennedy CSR

A falIacy to which most people sccede
is that the human foot is monstrously
ugly to begin with. and that the least
said OF it the better. Nothing is farther
from the truth than that the foot is
lacking in beauty; to be sure. when after
much hesitation and a good deal OF
chagrin It is, OF necessity, displayed, its
appearance and condition fully justify
the belief for most adult feet are ugly
because of the lamentably few healthy,
normally formed feet seen among civilized
races.
The human foot is an extraordinary
piece OF mechanism, remarkable for its
strength and endurance. but laborlng
under the constant disadvantage Of un-
suita Bile footwear and unhygienic treat
ment II begins early in life to protest
against these things; scant attention, how
ever, is usually given to foot sufferings.
and by the time middle life is reached
tthese overburdencd and faithful servitors
are more or less permanently crippled.
The foot is structurally far more COM
plex than the hand. and, contrary to pop
ular knowledge. much more flexible. En-
cased as IL has been for centuries in
civilized footwear, its freedom OF action
has been seriously hampered. so that the
modern foot is not unlike the bound foot
of the Chinese woman of the past. We
commonly regard the action of the foot
as consisting merely Of fieXion and rota-
tion, whereas it has thirty-eight articuls-
tions. The extraordinary movements OF
Ruth st. Denis, Genee, Isadora Dunca
and other famous dancers, could not pos
sibly be executed were 1t not for the
remarkable iexibility and strength Of
their feet. The so-called planter fascia"
Is perhaps the toughest tissue in the body:
It extends along the sole of the foot from
the heel to the toes and there sends out
fibres to each one. And speaking Of toes
by the way, to so little use are they put
by the average civilized being that they
are In danger of complete extinction. The
toes of moderns are becoming smaller
with each generation, and although one
may regard this as q mark of higher
development and compare with pride our
stubby toes to the strange looking pre-
hensile pedal formation Of savages, it is
we who are retrograding and throwing
our feet back to type that is really not
human. A scientist expresses the belief
that the future foot of the more highly
developed races will be one-toed. 1t as
suredly will be II we continue to cramp
1t into footwear that precludes all neces-
sity for the use OF toes.
A military writer referring to the foot
wear of soldiers on the march, says: THE
naked, barefoot savage is one person;
the civilized man, booted and clad ac-
cording to customs-senseless or other
wise-of his race, is another"
1t Is well recognized and admitted fact
that modern footwear is ruinous to the
feet, and in many instances to the health;
yet we fear to make any startling inno-
vations. Physicians have of late years
protested so much against the cruel
practice OF shoeing children promiscu-
ously, that greater care in this respect is
