Difference in VINEGAR.

What a difference in table vinegars!
Some have a coarse acidity that is
most pronounced. And for just bit
more than you usually pay you will
find them of unusual mellOwness and
of much greater strength than the
ordinary vinegar. 1t is surprising
what a difference a really good vine
gar makes in a salad dressing or for

SHIPYARDS BUSY

The revival of shipbulding in yards
of the country is greater than 1t has
been for many years, according to
government reports. Orders have
been pouring in from domestic sour
ces and from Scandinavian countries
and England, developing a field that
had not been touched before by Amer
ican shipbuilders for half a century.
The revival in the building dates
from one year ago. Since then con-
tracts have been let for big freight
and tank ships to the number of 10.
These include ships of 1900 net tons
register or over. In 1914 there were

LONDON.-Albert Balling, director

of the Kaiser, in charge of the Ger
man railway system, contributes the
following:
christmas, 1915, found the peoples
of Europe still embroiled in the most
cruel and idiotic war the world has
ever seen, immersed in a hopeless
struggle and in the sorrowful work
of converting this beautiful old hem
isphere into a mass of ruins, for the
benefit of the world on the other side
of the ocean and to the joy of the
yellow race.
"The men who will one day be
called upon to construct peace must
conceive it their noblest duty not
only to Danish war from our genera
ton, but also to wipe out the Euro
pean armaments fever for decades to
come.
"They will also have to seek guar
antees that an economic war does not
follow this bloody one"

WOoDsMEN MUST ORGANIZE

DULUTH, Minn.-"A few weeks
ago a group of lumber barons met in
a room in a Duluth hotel and after
discussing the labor situation in the
woods at some length, resolved to
agree together to reduce the wages
of the lumber jacks to 500 a month, "
says the Labor World of this city.
But the lumber barons will do
nothing to improve the conditions of
the men employed in the woods. They
will not correct the wrongs they have
imposed on the men. They profit by
their iniquitous system of exploitation
and occasional murmurs from discon-
tented individual woodsmen do not
give them any worry.
IF the woodsmen were organized,
however, as they should be- there
would be a different story to tell
about their lot in the woods When
will they awaken? The lumber bar
ons reduced wages by meeting and
combining. The men can raise their
wages by and through the same meth
cd. 1t is up to them"

Benefit Association, Secretary-Treas-

during the year of 1915 a total of

their families, and the burden lifted

unions in caring for the sick or those
injured by accident. i beats any

with a report issued by the depart

ship of 154,206, reported a total idle
ness of 17.6 per cent, against 1877
per cent. Oct IS, and 149 per cent

1t is stated that the membership

to include for each trade and group
of trades as nearly as possible the
same proportion of the total Organi2.
