LONDON. Oct. 1s.-(By maiD-
Red Cross day in London has more
"Our Day. because most tag days are
for foreign charities. Our Day"
means the empire. But the first sem
Sation Of the day this year came with
the announcement In the papers that
the American Red Cross had sub
scribed 81 200, 900 to the British chap
ter.

over here they get more color Into
tag day than we do In America. The
first thing i ran across in the streets
was an Indian princess not Ameri-
can Indian, but one Of Princess Dhu-
leep Singh's party Of royal oriental
flag vendors in full national costume,
as she could hand them out on the
muddy pavement Of the Haymarket.
Crowds of office workers, shopkeep-
ers, cabinet ministers and clerks
streamed by, stuffing her little tin
bucket With coins and bills. While I
fumbled in my purse for something
to slip in she was hailed by a slimy
fellow emerging from manhole in
the street. ERE, miss" he shouted,
"step lively over ere fer bob" And
she did, tripping In her dainty san
dals Of gold across the snire to pin.
with a radiant smile, a tiny flag upon
the breast of the sewerman, who
forthwith disappeared.
All over grimy old London the Red
Cross held high carnival. All the allies
were represented. The American chap
ter in London patrolled Hanover
Square and st. Georges street and
they decked out with fluttering BAN
ners OF red and white the famous old
stone portico Of St. Georges, Hanover
Square, where 80 many American girls
have joined the British aristocracy.
Gilded KangaroOs.
In st. James street, Lady Diana
Manners and a lot Of other London
beauties sold fruit and flowers In
shops and wandered up and down be-
by diminutive donkeys. Piled high on
the carts were prize apples and pota-
toes and great punches of grapes
weighing twenty pounds or more. all
gifts from the gardens and green
houses Of the wealthy. But purchasers
invariably sent these delicacies to hos
pitals. One good idea was selling diff
ferent flags for different prices. Reg
imental emblems were all sold before
noon.
In Whitehall the Canada nurses
distributed maple leaves. In the
Strand New Zealand girls distributed
little gilded kangaroos. One thing ]
noticed was that never q soldier or
an officer passed one of the flag ven-

Had His Doubts.

A Scottish doctor who was attend
ing q laird had instructed the butler
of the house in the art of taking and
recording his masters temperature
with thermometer. On paying his
usual morning call, he was met by the
butler, to whom he said:
well. John. / hope the laird's tenn
perature is not any higher today?"
The man looked puzzled for min
ute and then replied:
"Well, 1 was just wonderin' that my

Wisdom OF Dad,

When the conversation turned to
the subject of romantic marriages this
little anecdote was volunteered by II.
NJ. Asker, North Dakota politician:
80 you were married ten years ago.
Took place in the church, I suppose,
with bridesmaids, flowers. cake, and
the brass bandT
mo; it was an elopement."
"An elopment, eh ?" Did the girls
father follow you?"
'Yes, and he has been with us ever
since"

Accuracy.

An American editor had notice
stuck up above his desk on which was
printed: Accuracy! Accuracy! Ac-
curacy!' and this notice he always
pointed, out to the new reporters.
One day the youngest member Of the
staff came in with his report OF a pub
lie meeting. The editor read 1t thru.
and Came to the sentences: Three
thohsand nine hundred and ninety
nine eyes were fixed upon the speak

What do you mean by making a
silly hlunder like that?" he demanded,
wrathfully.
"But it's not q blunder" protested
the youngster. There was one
eyed man in the audience!"

Pie plant or rhubarb is one of the
most easily raised plants that pro-
duces material for pies and sauce.
It is is also ready to be used as soon as
growth starts in the spring, long be-
fore any fruits are ready. The best
way to make a start with rhubarb is
to divide an old root into several
pieces. Plant these 9 feet apart in a
row. Spade well rotted manure into
the soil around the plants. Keep them
clean from weeds and grass. Do not
make heavy cuttings till the plants are
three yeas old. Remove the seed
stalks as they appear.-Ex. Dept. N.

People generally should be careful
about accepting Canadian money in

PRICE OF COAL TO Be REDUCED
CUT OF 81 TO $1.15 PER TON AT
MINES AGREED ON.
New Rates to Be Effective July ana
Further Decreases in Price Are
Seen-Operators Take Action.

Washington, June 29.-An immedi.
ate general reduction of 81 to $3.50 a
ton in the price of coal at the mine
has been agreed upon here by repre-
sentatives of the coal operators.
This reduction is expected to be fol-
lowed by still further decreases in
price after investigation into the costs
OF mining coal and it is probable that
the government will be given a still
lower price than the general public.
Millions of dollars will be saved to
the American people through this de.
cision.
The operators agreed to the immedi.
ate reduction at a meeting here after
adopting a resolution by which coal
prices would be fixed with the aid and
approval of the Secretary of the In
terror, the Federal Trade commission
and the commission on coal produc-
ton of the National Defense council.
AS soon as this resolution was
agreed to another one was presented
under which it was proposed that the
government authorize the government
representatives named in the resolu-
ton to issue a statement forthwith
fixing tentative price which, in their
Judgment, shall be a fair and reason
able one for the various districts and
to be effective from July 1 until the
committee shall fix permanent price.
