LIVINGSTON

Livingston, October -(Special.) )-Burg lars visited Livingston last night enter ing the dry goods house of H.. l.. Miller & Co.,, where they secured F cents in money, the grocery store of J. M. Branch, securing S2 in money and then the postoffice, where they made every effort to force the safe using railroad spike in efforts to force the combination lock, scars showing that 20 blows were struck, but the robbers failed to gain entrance though the lock was ruined. The noise in the postoffice alarmed the operator in the telephone exchange, who notified Sheriff Godfrey, but the burg lars are supposed to have heard the alarm given and made good their es- cape without securing any money from the postoffice safe, but did carry away parcel post package containing suit of clothes.
 Postmaster W. F. Tartt, wfo has served Livingston people so diligently and so well for the past six years, has rendered his resignation to the depart ment, giving as his reason the constantly increasing duties and responsibilities with no increased remuneration or help.

Boarders Rejoice That 78OOOOOO Pounds of Faithful
 Prunes Have Marched Away to War, Yet Boarding
 House Mistress Fails to See Any Humor In Report

just about the time this order was given a strange little thing happened After everybody thought that the prune ques- ton was settled, along came the weather out in California turning Itself inside out and falling to rain-or to be dry, or whatever it is that weather ought to do so that prunes will thrive; behaved un- seemly, to say the least of it, and the prunes went on q strike and refused to bud or blossom or whatever it is that prunes do. There were of course, lot of prunes, but not enough for board- ing houses and soldiers, too, so as We must sacrifice anything and everything Tor our army boys, we graciously gave up our best friend-the humble prune- and bade it a fond farewell.
 honestly if 1 were some folks I know be ashamed to@looll prune in the face, after the way they've talked about
 em; just like some folks talk about other folks that they don't think amount to anything much and suddenly, they get to be something, and then those same folks that have talked like pick- pockets about them, just run their heels off after 'em, and that's exactly the way with prunes; now that they have been scarce and high-priced and sort of busted into swell society" why peo- pie just can't say enough that's nice about my friend-the prune.'' My, but wa are the intimate ones,
 But, really and truly, there has al. ways been too much levity on the sub- ject of prunes: always, since the world began. they have been closely connected with boarding houses, until to imagine a boarding house without a prune would be about as difficult as to imagine a show girl" without rouge or New York without the Follies.
 Down through literature, to say nothing Of history, pleasing pictures of perfectly good boarders swearing at prunes and the perfectly good members of the prune family reappearing meekly and mildly at every meal, stare us in the face but now, behold, the lowly fruit has it's revenge in full, and the only person who has failed to see any humor in the fact that most of the prunes (ex- cept, of course, few "slackers' and those claiming exemption on the ground of some disability, have marched boldly off to war is the nice boarding house mistress herself, who is wondering what on earth she will use as substitute for this lifelong friend of the family.

ENORMOUS OUTPUT
 IN OHIO DISTRICT
By HOLLAND

New York, October 9.-(Special. )-Enor- nous as is the war work now in prog ress in the Ohio district engaged in pro- ducing materials for which the govern ment has need, nevertheless it is fully matched by the amount of money which the government is distributing through out that district Millions of pounds of war material are being produced each month in this district and millions Of dollars are being paid out each month to the workers in this wonderful aggrega- tion of work shops.
 For instance, the pay roll of the work ingmen in Youngstown has been for some time averaging $7,0cO,0O0 a month. This payment is made to those who are ex- ciusively engaged in government war work With the adoption of the eight. hour day time this payroll will be in. creased so that the government will turn over to the workingnaen hereafter con- siderably more than s70O0,0O0 a month.
 But this is only one community. It is not accurately known how much the gov ernment is paying to the workingmeu who are engaged in war industry work Tn Cincinnati. The presumption is that the aggregate amount is considera bIy larger than the sum which is paid by the government to the workingmen of Youngstown. So also in Cleveland mil lions are paid each month to the work. ing men engaged in war industries and a very large aggregate payment is made each month to the workingmen in To. ledo.
 Tn the aggregate the government is probably paying out each month in the form or wages to the artisans of the Ohio district not less than $40, ,O0O0u9 and may be as much as 50,000000 a month The actual 11gures are not available from the Emergency Fleet corporation. Here then Is great stream of money flowing from the treasury of the United States by di- rection of the Emergency Fleet corpora. ton into this new and wonderful Ohio incustries district. Payments of this Kind will continue until the war is ended so that there should have been received by the workingmen of this district in case the war lasts another year, perhaps az much as $l000oo,00o. Of course these sums do not reflect corporation payments made to workingmen who are engaged in in- dustrial vacations which have little or nothing to do with war work. Neverthe- less there are not many industries whiCh are not participating either to the ex- tent of their capacity or of a partial cas pacity in war work. Some of the ipdusS tries it might be assumed should be occupied with manufacturing products that have little or nothing to do with war work. For instance there is great corporation in Cincinnati which has gained a nationwide reputation as of soap and kindred ar ticles
 Nevertheless this corporation is doing great deal of war work, presumably fur nishing glycerine and other material of

 CRAY HAIR DARK Try Grandmother's Old Fa- vorite Recipe of Sage
