this year on the useless friyolities
of life.
I will endeavor to impress upon
my family the duty of greeting, with
cheerful voices and laughing faces,
the father of family when he re-
turns home, wearied with the de-
pressing cares and labors of a long
business day.

TROUSERS FoR WOMEN

Will women wear trousers? That
grim question has long been hotiy
debated Since the war, trousers
have become realities to those wo-
men who are doing mems work in
order that they may be released for
fighting. In Paris, however, trous-
ers for women have. more than a
strictly utilitarian use.
The Paris correspondent of Har-
per's Bazaar writes, in the January
issue: more and more trousers are
being worn indoors instead of robes
that cling and cling and cling.
Fashioned of the richest of tissues
are these trouser-frocks- trousers of
gorgeous metallic stuffs below jack
cts of-soft velvets, trousers of vel
vet below coats rich with embroider-
les, and eXQuisitely filmy mousse
lines. In the salons of Marthe Guth-
Ter in the rue des Capucines, there
is creation Of putty-colored velvet
embroidered most decoratively with
rose and blue thread-the square
Chinese coat falling ungirdled with
rose and blue thread-the square
Chinese coat falling ungirdled over
embroidered velvet trousers of the
straight variety"

OPEN CRATE FIRE HELD WASTE.
Full.

The open CRATE coal fire stands
indicted. 1t gives cheer and com
partnership as well as heat, the fuel
administration admits, but it is Gin
efficient and wasteful. That is
sufficient reason for the administra-
tion's stigma. And lovers of ease
taken before the romantic flames in
an open hearth are asked to use
wood or a more practical coal
Jumbo, heater. The fuel admins
tration said:
1.-The present fuel situation suS-
gest that the crate should be filled
with coal much less often than in
the past. It should be used when
only a little heat is needed for a
short time. and it should be fed on
waste wood as much as possible.
The Pickering flames of a smaller
fire may be made sufficient to ex-
cite the fancy rather than the
scorch and the big roar of too full a
fireplace"

INCREASING MISERY
Some Paris Kidney Sufferers Get
Little Rest or Comfort.


There is little sleep, little rest, lit
tie peace for many a sufferer from
kidney trouble. Life is one contin-
ual round Of pain. You can't rest
at night where there's kidney back
ache. You suffer twinges and ''stabs'
Of pain, annoying urinary disorders,
lamenesS and nervousness. You can't
be comfortable at work with darting
pains and binding dizzy spells.
Neglect these ailments and serious
troubles may follow. Begin using
Doan's Kidney Pills at the first sign
of disorder. Thousands have testi-
fed to their merit
Proof of merit in Paris testimony:
Phillip Nj. Heller, proprietor, meat
market, s722 Main street, says: 81
have used Doan's Kidney Pills a few
times in the past and have been
greatly benefited. AT times my
back was weak and lame and the
kidney secretions passed too freely,
making me get up often at night. /
have used a box of Doan's Kidney
Pills at these times and they have

A HERO EVERY DAY.

When the United States ship AL
cedo was torpedoed in November in
the war zone, George A. Collier, a
second-class fireman Of the navy, was
on watch in the engine room under
instructions as mechinist's mate. He
was just at that time taking UP du-
ties that would mean, if successful
ly handled, bringing him up another
step in the service. The kind Of
stuff he is made of was shown when
just as soon as the torpedo struck
and was followed by an explosion he
remained cool and knew exactly
what to do. Despite the fact that
he was standing in water up to his
knees, the sea having rushed in
through the rent torn by the tor
pedo, he stopped the main engine
and then deliberately raised the safe
ty valve on the main engine by the
hand gear. Thus without regard to
his own personal safety and when
in the greatest danger of going
down with the ship he stuck to his
post and performed his duties. He
has been commended for this devo-
ton to duty in a letter written by
the Secretary of the Navy Fireman
Collier is a son of w. Z. Collier, OF
Morringsport, La.

A new year is here. 1t is a time
for invoice. Business men take an
invoice of their stock. Wouldn't it
be business for you to take one of
yourself? Life, each life, is a bus
mess. Have you gained or lost last
year? Have you used the talents
that have been given you so as to
gain other talents? Is there any
prospect of your being placed over
ten cities of five cities or one city?
Have you declared any dividends in
the way of loving and helping 9TH
ers, and have you added anything to
the capital stock of your character?
These are pertinent questions that
press us all for an answer.
AS you turn the corner into the
new year, look back a minute over
the road you have been travelling
the past year. 1t seemed long way
when you started out, but it has
been travelled at last. See the line
of that road ever winding on, while
twisting here and there. Do you re-
member that Doggy place into which
you strayed? How you promised
yourself in your better moments, 81
Will turn over new leaf Have
you been true to yourself? If not,
once more before you step out into
the pure New Yea1, renew your
promises to your better natures.
Don't stay, but linger near the pleas
ant outlooks, keep near the bits OF
high ground where you breathe
purer air and can see afar off Heav-
ems high hills of blue, make the
motive pure work for the object. Be
diligent in seeking the better ways
and in twelve more short months,
take another retrospective glance
and see how much pleased you will
be with yourself, how much more OF
goodness and genuine worth this
will seem to possess.
The days, weeks and years Slip
away like water in a running stream.
Times great clock never loses "a
moment. Relentlessly, surely the
moments pass, and our eager hands
are not able to detain them. We can
not keep back the flying years, but
we can and should keep the blessings
they bring. Hold fast to the les
sons they have taught. Keep the
memory of their joys. Enrich every
day of life with the garnered wealth
of the DAYS behind. The years pass,
but they leave their treasure with
us. if our hands and heart are open
m receive them, so as with one hand
we shake farewell to the last year,
let us stretch out the other hand to

PRISONER DISCOVERS PROCESS.

An important new process for ex-
tracing petroleum from the enor-
NOUS banks of oil-bearing shale of
certain Western States is indicated
in announcements from Nevada.
Such a process, if successful, would
help greatly in solving the gasoline
problem. The new process, which is
now being tested, was developed by
a prisoner in the Nevada State
prison. A special pardon was grant
ed him to give him an opportunity
to continue his chemical work.

If you find it so difficulty to keep
your New Years resolutions, perhaps
it would be good idea to make a
few bad ones this time, for a change.
For instance, you might resolve to
be cross to your wife (if you have
one) every day during the year, and
then give her gentle words and low
ing kisses instead. You can thus be
consistent with your past record
and possibly be better man when
another year rolls around.
