EMBROIDERY TO BE REVIVED
France Determined to Re-EstabIish In
dustry in Order to Give Her
Women Employment.

Paris is quite determined. that is GER
tain, on the vast re-establishment of
her business In embroidery. Her wom-
EN- are needleworkers of Importance.
None Is so good on this planet, possi-
bly,, unless isolated exceptions in the
Indian and Persian countries be taken
into account.
Her gentlewomen are trained, as all
gentlewomen used to be trained In old
en- days.. before the sewing machine
and ready-to-wear garments, in the art
of holding needle filed with fine
thread and accomplishing wonders
with It.
Money has been scarce among the
people in arlstocratic segnents of
French life. and the war has brought
about the same kind of situation which
existed during the Revolution; those
who are too proud TO work for their
living In other epochs win now do so
under the national strain.
Also. there are thousands of Bel
CLAN refugees and French women In
other classes of life and society who
must be supported. France does not
believe in the nonproducing consumer.
And so these women and men, too
old even to serve in that territory serv-
&C of bearing the wounded from the
trenches of the hills. which has been
given to those who do not bear arms
and who are sure of their footing aud
their nerves. are given the gentler
service of embroidery for the worlds
clothes. So every woman who buys n
gown that is embroidered In France is
helping France.

PLENTY OF JOBS.

Peoria, H., was for half century
the whlsky-manufacturing center Of
the United States. Its five great dlstil-
leries, the largest In the world, fur
nished 30 per cent of the whisky Of the
country. They used up $4,000 bushels
of corn daily and employed 1,275 men.
When these plants, on September 8,
under the federal food control law,
ceased operations-so far as the max
ing of beverage liquor Is concerned
did these 1,275 men face jobless fu-
ture? Not at all. Other manufactur-
ers eagerly snapped them up. A lead

weight has been invented by New

When the handle is slipped over

QUESTIONS FOR AMERICANS.

Here are few Of long list OF per
tinent questions propounded by Sena-
tor Kenyon Of Iowa during the debate
In the United States senate on the pro-
hibition amendment:
"why do we prohibit the boys In the
army and navy from having booze and
permit those who remain ut home to
have It?
"If liquor is bad thing for the boys
In the trenches, why Is II good thing
for those at home?
"When they are willing to die for us,
should we not be willing to go dry for
themp
"When the food controller asks ev-
eryone In the country to conserve the
food supply, why must the food supply
going into beer be excepted7
"If more foodstufr goes into beer
than into whisky. why do we prevent
foodstun going into whisky and permit
II going into beer?
"Sixty per cent OF the nation, terri
torally, is dry. Are not the feelings Of
the people living in that territory en-
titled to any consideration
"1f the beer drinkers are going to
rebel unless they get their beer, will
the temperance people rebel unless they
get prohlbitlon7
"Why do not the temperance people
claim that they will rebel also? Tho
temperance people will be for the ma
tion no matter IL beer and whisky be
forced on them. Their patriotism does
not depend on having their own way.
''If some one were to take as much
foodstuff as goes into booze and dump
IL into the sea, what would the people
OF the nation say?
"If someone should advance the mr.
gument that this was necessary In or
der to appease certain people who be-
lleved in dumping foOdstuffs into the
sea, and that IL they did not do It It
would arouse riots, would we accede
to their request?"
