The effort to render fuel alcohol re-

not seem to have succeeded. Equally
fruitless has been the campaign Of edu-

nally been forced to adopt restrictive
measures. In view of the temperance
program adopted at the outbreak OF the
war. fuel alcohol may now be sold only
to persons having a license from the po-
lice. But naturally the police cannot be
certain that a great deal of the dena-

business and domestic premises and TO

II has been shown that William Cullen
Bryant was not the patriot who wrote
the stirring words, works of reference

composer was a Hicksite Quaker named
John 3. Gibbons, whose aversion TO
slavery had led him into full support OF
the union cause. He was led, soon after
Ihncoln's call for 100000 volunteers, to
frame a versified response which would
voice the assent of the people; and though
never before or after was the gift OF

Easter comes late this year, usher
ing in the last week in April, so that
the matter of new spring suits may
be all settled before that time. Style
features that will predominant through
the coming summer are already GER
tainty, and they are not very different
from those Of the past season.
Certain characteristics Of the win
ter's modes are emphasized in those
for spring, and others are modified.
For instance, skirts are wider but not
SO short. Coats are inclined to fit
more snugly in the body and indulge
more fullness in the peplum. They
are short and many of them are belt
ed. Collars are diminishing in width,
at the front, at least. Capes and cape
effects furnish a novelty in details that
may be depended on. Buttons play
a not too conspicuous but important
role in the matter of decoration, and
one may choose between silk or wool
or cotton materials. Much ingenuity
is apparent in the management Of
belts.

of serge having hair-line stripe, is

AN INSURANCE AGAINST SUDDEN DEATH!

Before an Insurance Company will

physician will test the urine and report
whether you are a good risk. When
your kidneys get sluggish and clog,
you suffer from backache, sick-head-
ache, dizzy spells, or the twinges and
pains of lumbago, rheumatism and
govt. The urine is often cloudy, full
of sediment; channels often get sore
and sleep is disturbed two or three
times a night. This is the time you
should consult some physician of wide

Pearl Button Industry.

The Pacific Northwest might easily
become an important factor in the
pearl button trade, if it would give
attention to the propagation of the
pearl mussel in its fresh waters, &C
cording to Prof Trevor Kincaid of
the University of Washington. Seat
tie, in particular, because of it's fresh
water lakes, is admirably adapted to
could become the pearl button port of
the-world.
"All the factors that have produced,
in the Mississippi valley, the enor-
nous quantity of mussels whose shells
are suitable for button making are
found here" he said. "The pearl mus
sci of North America is a fresh water
creature and could be propagated
ideally in the lakes and rivers of this
section
Professor Kincaid has suggested to
various eastern button manufacturers
the transplanting of the Mississippi
mussel, and they have considered it
feasible. The present fields are being
rapidly exhausted, due to extensive
dredging. On the other hand, the
mussel native to this coast is unfit
for use because of it's thin shell.
Transplanting seems necessary.
"The manufacturers realize that
something must be done immediate
ly," Professor Kincaid said, "and it is
probable that before long they will
use our lakes and streams for their
supplies. The economic Importance
of such step would be considerable"
The federal government now has a
station where experiments connected
with the raising of mussels fit for the
button industry are being conducted.
The scientists engaged in the work
have had much difficulty because Of
the peculiar life history of the mol
lusk. The embryo must live as a
parasite in order to develop. Fish,
prtseipally the trout, are found to be
the hosts of the embryo mussel, which
attaches itself to the gills, dropping
off to lead an independent life upon
reaching maturity.
