Because Of the raids there has been
much speculation as to how the du-
Pont Powder Company will be AFFECT
ed should the raids continue. II has
been learned, however, that the com
pany makes no shipments to the war
ring nations of Europe.
The company delivers its products
at its own wharves TO the purchasers,
who arrange for the transportation,
loading the vessels and assuming all
responsibility for the delivery OF the
goods at its destination.
The bulk of the smokeless powder
manufactured at the Carney's Point
plant is loaded aboard ships repre-
senting the Allies which land at the
Deep Water Point wharves OF the
company.
There are no vessels loading at the
dupont wharves now, and none is ex-
pected IN the immediate future.

THE COMING CANVASS.

In less than six months the vo-
ters of the country will know who
will be the two leading candidates
for the office of President of the
United States. Indeed they know
now who one of them will be-, but
as to the other there is complete
uncertainty.
The known candidate of course
is that of the Democratic party.
No Democrat has proposed himself,
no Dem ocrat has been mentioned'
by his friends as possible oppo-
nent Of the President. Individual
Democrats of high standing have
disagreed with some of the Pres
ldent's policies or disapprovcd some
Of his actions; bnt none of them
have seriously opposed him. The
approval Of Mr.. Wilson's course
Dy his own party as q whole has
been unusually sincere and hearty.
On the Republican side all is OBJ

SEX ATTRACTION.
Il Is the Controlling Force In About
Every Human Effort.

We cannot escape from the fact that
sex attraction is the great event in hu-
man life. Sex Is the controlling force
in nearly all Of human efforts. War,
for Instance, IS only an exaggerated
form OF the sex instinct. Neither lit
eraturc not art would exist In any ap-
preciablc degree without sex. Men
work, fight. sing, paint, live and die
for the love OF woman.
In only one field Of human activity
Is there 10 faint OF sex feeling. and
that Is science. Science is cold and
dispAsSionate. 1t has imagination, but
the imagination of the explorer and
not the lover. Science has only one
aim and cnd-the discovery Of truth.
Science is another world from the hot
earth OF economic and military comDe-
titioh, which aave for their ends the
attainmeIA Of fove and marriage.
Through science mankind will grad
TALLY throw off some Of the sex slavery
and reach q new and possibly happier
stage in its development-Rich

OF all men the President of the
United States ought to be the wis
est aid best from the fact he is
selected by ma iority of millions
of men. But as time passes, it is
plainly seen that wisdom is not con-
fined to the Nation head but can
be found ii almost every walk in
life. If man Of purpose said one
term is enough and | will only
serve one term; and if the same man
decries preparedness, and because
public sentiment favors it, he too
falls in line, and for no other pur-
pose than to be renolnlnated, what
do you think Of him?

LEARN SPANISH.


South America the people speak
Spanish. In our American isola-
ton and self suffiency we give very
little time to the study Of foreign
language In that respect the cdu-
Gated classes of Europe excel us,
and in that respect they have a
great advantage over us in their
struggle for foreign trade.
Every high school boy and girl
ought to study spanish. The study
of spanish ought to be required in
our high schools.
1t is not a difficult language and
it is spoken in most Of tho Amcri-
cas-, 1t is part OF the latin or rO-
nance language, spoken in Spain,
Italy, France and South America.
If the young men and womcm
who go out of the high schools can
read and talk spanish, and if the
young men and women Of the Latin
countries south of us are taught to
read and speak English, there will
by that fact, exist a bond of unity
between the Americas greater than
all the congresses or science or pol
tics could perfect.
If American literature could Cir
culate among the intelligent classes
of South America and Central
America as freely as it circulates
here; if South American literature
could circulate in America; if the
business man of South America and
Of the United States could cores
pond III either language with equal
facility; If the young man could go
directly from this country to any
city in south America or Mexico to
establish branch Of American bus
mess without the handicap of igno-
rance of their language, and if con-
verscly a South American or MeEi-
can could come here and do the same
with equal facility, we should have
panAmericanism greater than
we could attain by speeches and
resolutions and treaties.
1t is Of the highest commercial
importance to this country to cult
vate the study of Spanish in ou1
public schools,

tificial harmony; there may be con.

tlfcial harmony; there may be con-
tinued division and rival candidates,
Logically and in the interest of
pure politics, there should be CON
tlnued division; for those who adj
hered to the Republican party four
years ago, and those who broke
away from it, do not now, any more
than then, think alike on public,
questions. If they should act to-
gcther on platform and candidates,
and should be successful in the
election, one wing or the other
would be doomed to disappoint-
ment. The alternative is that they
should make a platform and choose
candidates SO COlOrlcss rs not to
offend either wing Of the party n
that case of course neither wi,..

Lines to Be Remembered.

We live beside each other day by
day,
And speak of Myriad things, but
seldom say
The full sweet word that lies within
our reach.
Beneath the common ground of
common speech;
Then out of sight and out of reach
they go,
These dear familiar friends that
loved us SO,
And, sitting in the shadows they
have left,
Alone with loneliness and sore
bereft,
We think with vain regret of some
kind word
That once we might have said and
they have heard. Lowell

HotD to Safely
Peel Your Face

# you wear an aged, discolored or
weather-beaten complexion, the most
sensible thing to do is to remove it
rather than patch 1t over or doctor
it with cosmetics. The only way to
really remove the COMPREHENSIVE
from resorting to an expensive and
painful surgical operations by
means Of ordinary mercolized wax.
Spread the wax over the face at night,
as you would cold cream; wash it oil
in the morning This gradually peels
Off the lifeless and the half-dead outer
skin, in minute particles-gradually
! the fresh young skin beneath beams
forth. Then you have clear, velvety,
healthy hued complexion such as no
unnatural method can possibly pro-
duce. Freckles, blotches, pimples-
all surface defects due to weather. Ill
health or the ravages of time, OF
course, disappear with the discarded
skin Ask the druggist for an ounce
of mercolized wax; you won't need
more.
II you wear wrinkles or crowsfeet,
the best thing to do is to battle your
face in a harmless lotion made by dis
solving an ounce of powdered saxolite
| in half pint witch hazel. Nothing
else will so surely erase the unwel.
