went tagging.
1t did not lag. however, on ac-
count of not having publicity, or

amply and widely advertised and
had the hearty support of our

accomplished. We believe one
year from now that Pay-Up Week

GERMANY'S REPLY.

Germany has replied to the United
States demands that the present
methods of submarine warfare be i'm
-mediately abandoned.
Germany comedies not to sink
freight or passenger liners within or
without the English war zone un-
warned, unless the liners resist or at
tempt to escape, and has issued sub
marine. orders to that effect.
But Germany in her reply states
that unless Great Britain is brought
to task, unless Great Britain is
forced to conduct, the war lawfully,
Germany will do asLit -pleasesains sub
marine warfare. =
The synopsis of Berlin'sJ reply to
the demands of the United States is
as follows:
Germany acquiesces in American
demands for ,strictest observance of
international law Of visit and. search
by submarines of freighters> as well
as passenger carrying ships.
Urges America now require Great
Britain and. Allies likewise to cease
their, illegal methods of warfare.
Intimates .. if America unable to
obtain such. pledges from Great Brit
ain and her. allies, Germany. may re-
turn, to former. submarine. methods. =
Bitterly assails Great Britain for

ing freedom of the seas.

appears to be derived from

Pictures in the Home.

No one can tell you what pictures
to hang on your walls-that is mat
ter of individual taste. But an at.
tempt should be made to have the pic
lures harmonize, not only with the
others IN the same room, but with the
background. Many rooms having rest
full, harmonious, wall colors are
spoiled by the variety in frames and
mats, or by the groupings of the pic.
lures; also by putting into a small
room a picture that needs distance to
bring out its full meaning. 1t is not
necessary to have the pictures all the
work of one artist, or all on the same
subject, but they should harmonize in
tone and style of frame.-Alice Nc.
Feely.

The largest price ever paid by an
American magazine for serial rights
in a book was $4,000, given by the
Century company to Nicolay and Hay
for their famous Life of Lincoln" 1t
is said that the editor Of the Century,
who first offered $4,000 and then
doubled the bid, probably misread the
exchange of glances between the au'
thors when the first offer was made,
they being surprised at the bigness OF
the first sum, which he in his eager
ness Immediately doubled.

Potted plants,

With potted flowers regular atten-
tion is quite important. SO many wom-
en- are unable to keep flowers grow
ing because they are overzealous in
their care of them for a few days
and then leave them during the rest
of the week without a bit of nourish-
ment. Geraniums and primroses are
the most satisfactory Towering plants
and last well through the winter. II
dead leaves are kept picked off and
blossoms removed Immediately they
become faded new blooms will appear
very frequently, Change in tempera-
ture, so disastrous to most potted
flowers, will not affect these two vari-
eties to any great extent.

came in to make it's report, and could

of the convention asked if the chair
man was ready to report, and the
chairman of the committee answered
