The pinch of war is being felt very much
by the dresSmakers, both large and small
Many of them are already ruined, others
just struggle along, and their problems In
crease every day.
Life is indeed perplexing and becomes
of difficulty very hard to solve" said the
head of a small dressmaking establishment
on the Rue de Rivoli 'it Is hard to get
good workwomen. They prefer to go to the
big houses or live on their government al
lowance. Our rent must be paid or, failing
that. 1t mounts up into incredible sums for
future payment. We must pay cash for
every yard of material we buy"
But you have notices on your walls that
all customers must pay cash DOWN." I
began.
"Ah, mon Dieu, you do not understand p
cried little madame dramatically. I'VE
dare not ask our best customers to OBJ
serve these rules. Perhaps they. too. are as
badly hit by the war as we are II we
asked for immediate payment then the
gown or costume would perhaps not be
ordered at all, and we should lose not only
our orders but our customers. And indeed,
customers of any sort are Of a rareness
these sad daysl"
Later on I chatted with the head of a
larger establishment in the Rue de la Paix.
Want of materials and want of men,"
was his complaint. The beautiful pale gray
salons were empty.
"And want of customers too" he added.
~ have had to relinqulsh exactly three
fourths Of my former stan Each day It
seems to me that 1 must close my shop,
But indeed I am envious of the younger
men who are able to fight Theirs is the
only life worth living nowadaysi"
1t seems to me that the women of Paris
have struck an even more economical note
in their apparel than was obvious last
summer.
1T is better to economiZe in the toilette
than in the stomach" phllosophically de-
clared a dark-eyed little dressmaker in the
midst of her lamentations about departed
customers, "and 1 cannot blame the women
for refusing to buy new clothes, Eth bien,
there are perhaps few who follow the new
freaks and fancles, and who spend money
lavishly. These are the irresponsible ones
who will be extFavagant to the end of the
chapter. But the majority of the Paris
iennes are careful, and most truly
economize !"

A CHRISTMAS CAROL

In the stiffness OF the midnight,
In the silence of the Star.
In the slumber of the white lambs,
On the hillsides. near and far,
Came the Christ Child to his mother;
To the humble oxen's stall;
He the Babe OF Paradise, sweet;
Lord of Christmas, King of all.
Hush, let not a word be spoken
OF his sacrifice for men.
STOPPING from his world of glory.
To be woman-born; a pen
or sweet straw to be his cradle,
He is ours, just ours, today,
Mark that mortal smile, that shining
or the halo in the hayl
While the palm trees rustic softly,
While his lullaby, the breeze,
Croons amid the angels anthem
Which the star-lit heaven cleaves,
We will claim him ours, our treasure,
Christmas Babe, and Babe divine.
Hail, thrice hail. o mystic stranger.
Nesting in thy straw-filled shrine!
Helen Chase, in Brooklyn Eagle.

Chamberlain's Tablets are intended
especially for stomach troubles, bill

met with much success in the treat
ment of those diseases. People who
have suffered for years with stom-
ach trouble and have been unable
to obtain any permanent relief, have
been completely cured by the use of
these tablets. Chamberlain's Tab
let's are also of great value for bill
iousness. Chronic constipation may
be permanently cured by taking
Chamberlain's Tablets and observing
the plain printed directions with each
bottle.

this ungodly European conflict, and
say as the heavenly host sang, peace
on earth, good will toward men," for
we are sad indeed, at the thought of
thy children who today are killing
each other in the terrible war that is
being waged. In pity forgive them
oh, Heavenly Father, bring them and
their rulers to a full realization of
the sinfulness Of war-that those who
have caused it may cry to thee for
peace. May they get a glimpse of the
cross in its full meaning, and profit
by the sacrifice made by thy Son for
the worlds redemption.
Our Father, may the world become
Christianized from all other eligions
and PHILOSOPHERS, not merely in name,
but in the spirit of true Christian
brotherhood. Oh Lord, let us all who
fail to appreciate this great gift which
thou gavest to the world be so con-
science-stricken that they will at once
cease from their ingratitude, and ir-
reverence and depart from the error
of their ways. May they become adj
vocates of the Loving Master, who, as
the perfect man, said to all mankind,
Except We be converted and become
as little children, we shall not enter
the kingdom of heaven"
Dear Father, we rejoice with thee
for the hearts that Christmas will
make glad, for the little children to
whom Christmas brings so much JOY
Also we pray thee for those bereft of
loved ones on Christmas day to whom
this season brings painful remem-
! brance. Console all that mourn the
loss of loved ones. Comfort us, o
Lord, with heavenly vision and pre-
pare us to meet them in the holy
city. Give grace to the dying, cheer
to the sick and lonely, encourage the
unfortunate and disheartened. Take
all bitterness and hatred from our
hearts and plant within us a true
brotherhood. Give food to the hun
cry and raiment to the poorly clad.
Help us all to find thee as our Brother
and Friend, our Comforter and Sa-
vior, and the giver of life everlasting.
We ask it all in thy holy name.
AMEN.

MOL LYBDENUM LIKELY
 METAL IN THE STATE
Bureau of Mines Warns Pro- ducers Against its Possible Over Production in Coun- try.
MemCrIaI to nation $ hero

Much interest all through the State of the ores of molybdenum, hut a word of caution must be given. Molyb denum is used almost entirely for the hardening of steel and as only very small percentage is needed, the mar ket is limited. While the uses of mol ybdenum are steadily increasing. the demand can be easily oversupplied. At the present prices, large profit is made by those mining the metal under anything like economical conditions. but with a comparatively small in- crease in production. prices would un- doubtedly drop 10 level that would make production unprofitable under most conditions and cause many eX- pensive plants 10 become idle.
 Molybdenum is found in great many granites. but in most cases in too small percentage to be economi- cally recovered. There are several districts in Arizona where the granite contains sufficient nolybdenum to be treated profitably.
 An increasing amount is being used by the manufacturers of electric in- candescent lamps. but the aggregate used in this industry is but a few tons year. Tool steel is also factor in the consumption of molybdenum.
 Much information about this metal in Arizona is given in the Bulletin No. of the Arizona State Bureau of Mines. This may be obtained gratis by writing the director. Charles F. Willis. Tucson. Arizona.
