ONIONS AND POTATOES REPLACE TRADING STAMPS IN NEW YORK
By Making Large Purchases, House. wives May Take Home Enough
 Potatoes in Premiums for Meal.

New York, May il.--In the sec- ton of the city where the trading stamp was popular before the ad- vent of war prices, onions and pota- toes have been substituted by gro- cers and fruit dealers.
 In the Ridgewood section of Brooklyn, a small potato or onion is given with each 10 cent purchase.
 At this rate of profit sharing, it is estimated that a thrifty house. wife, who purchases in large quan- titles, can carry home in trade pre- miums, enough potatoes for a meal
 The motion picture houses also have adopted the same scheme of giving an onion or potato to each adult patron.

THE GYPSY CRY.

It's oh, it's oh for the loneliness
That yearns to wind-swept lea!
TO fields that lie meath brooding sky.
And hill that's high and free;
To fire alight on a windy night,
And a soul akin to me!
A soul akin to me, my friend,
And shoulder to my own,
A heart that's warm to breast the
storm,
When the forests rock and groan.
Oh, the long roads cry, and the hill
and the sky
Must | go forth alone?

love and reioicing?" is presented in the

IL appears that the compiler sug-
gested that Slavian words at this time
might constitute the glad tidings OF
your peoples resolve and optimism to
the sympathetic ar.of Americans, and
at time when the thoughts of the
world turn to the Babe of Bethlehem
and the first of human anniversaries. ;"
G. B. S. replied:
This is just the funniest letter
| ever read. How do you keep your
lace straight when you write such
frlghtful nonsense? However,
here's:
War on earth.
I'll will to men.
High wages.
Roaring profits
Better distributed wealth.
National expenditure instead
OF private dissipation.
New houses for old ones.
New men for old ones.
Commerce knocked out.
Socialism triumphant
Soldiers abiding in the field.
keeping watch over their
wire entanglements by night
Mars in excelsis
Christianity is nowhere.
God rest you, merry gentle
men,
Let nothing you dismay.
And dogs delight to bark and
y bite
Until next Christmas Day.
Here is poem-if we regard
poem as emotive thought expressed in
emotive language every Christ
ion profiter from the American NUM-
ton traffic ought to have enlarged,

In its ironic epitome of the econorl-
&c, political and spiritual consequence
es OF the war, he may find himself re-
Elected not only as beneficiary, but as
benefactor.
