ESTES PARK, Col, Aug. Ii
While the kaiser is Staying his thou
sands, Old General Monotony is slay-
ing his tens of thousands. Expert
investigators agree that the worst
thing about war is the terrific per-
sistent moral disintegration that sets
in during the long periods OF mac
tivity. A high Canadian authority
says that in the Canadian army at
the front today. more are disabled
from immortality than by the shot and
shell of the enemy.

First 3 Wells Stockholders
Divide Gigantic Profits

BY dividing this property into lots of 400
square feet EACH and selling enough OF them
to total $50, 600, three wells can be drilled at
once. In this way your investment is abso-
lutely protected by deed to the land. With
each lot will be given shares of stock worth
500 In company which will be organized by
the lot owners to drill the wells Every bar
rel of oil secured will be sold and the profits
divided among the stockholders. Every dol
lar derived from sale of lots goes into the
drilling fund.

THE LADY AND THE DISHRAG
Woman Does Not Realize to What
Depths She Sinks Herself by Using
Popular Expression.

When a woman declares that she
feels like a dlshrag' she is dragging
herself down to the lowest level Of
still life. We doubt not from the per.
sonal appearance of that handy ar
ticle Of domestic utility that II any
life existed at all In said rag 1t could
not possibly ia. lower or feel meaner.
However, woman should v offer
herself In comparison with 50 de-
graded an object for the simple rca.
son that mankind spurns the dishrag
most vehemently, and as wonan
exists solely for man she should not
seek to lower herself in his esteem.
When q rug takes up its duties In the
dishpan It has reached the ting end
Of abandoned hope. the climax per.
haps Of a merry life. A dishrag might
have been a lovely lady's hose In Its
palmy days. adorned by a silken gars
ter and surrounded by costly lingerie.
But 1t is not Of its past that l speak.
1t Is OF Its present soclal standing, Its
vulgar environment and its utter
self.abandonment. IT'S true that you
may feel fatigued to a limp and loppy
degree, but never Gun you feel 10
utterly wretched and beyond redemp.
