or Nelson In the center. The statue
on the slender column IL England's
best-loved hero. The figure OF Nelson,
three times the natural size. is reared
lao feet In the air. with Landseer's
four lions Of bronze at the base.
Many of the most important build
lngs Of the city are grouped around
the square. The National gallery, with
Its art collection, faces the Nelson col
umn. The collection was begun In
1924 and IL one Of the finest In the

Field where Nell Gwyn lies buried.
This last bit OF information is apt to
interest the visitor more than the fact
that Bacon was christened ut the
church's altar.
The column stands at the crossing of
some OF the most famous streets in
London. Charles the First walked
down Whitehall to his execution. The
Strand, branching from the square, Is
the main artery OF the city as well as
the favorite meeting place Of the peo-

FIGHTERS MUST
HAVE BACKING

Five million men In France means
that every resource here at home will
be strained TO support them-to give
them food to give them arms, to-
give the wounded care, 10 pay them
that those dependents they left at
home may live In comfort, to give
them safe transport across and safe
passage home again.
No less authority than Clifford
| Pinchot has said recently that one
third OF the population Of the United
States is agricultural one-third OF
the men are farmers.
one-third, therefore, OF whatever
glory comes TO us in our crushing OF
autocracy, will shine in the farm
homes whose stanchness has been
our safeguard. One.third OF any one
OF our co-ordinated war efforts can
not be allotted to the farmers any
more than any other one share to
any other class.
The farmer must raise all Of the
wkest and all OF the meat, without
which our army would be helpless.
But the miller and the packer must
prepare them. The banker must
handle all OF the war funds since he
is the accustomed channel for our
money, but he cannot provide II all.

forms of investment. stocks and

more acres or a better house or

go into Liberty Loans.
For fifty years after peace treaties
have been signed, the great war will
be fought over and over again
wherever men gather for discussion.
The fierce light of unconcealable
facts will reveal every angle OF the
conduct of the war at home and

The finger of righteous patriotic
scorn will point out every man who

The Beauty of the Mouth
By Lima CaUoLleri,
The Most Famous Living Beauty.

Hr HERE is no more fascinating quality
about a woman's face than beau
- utuI mouth. Every woman should
know how to keep her mouth we'll shaped,
her lips red. but not too red. and have the
teeth be, OF at least look. perfect Before
falling asleep at night the lips should be
lightly massaged Not with glycerine or
csmphor, but with a simple pomade made
up OF oil Of sweet almonds. white wax,
spermaceti and oil Of bergamont
/ never use glycerine alone upon the
lips or on any other surface OF the body,
because II is too drying. II has the power
TO draw all the moisture from the skin.
and that moisture should be replaced by
the water with which the glycerine is
mixed.
The mouth should be- as far as possible,
a perfect Cupid's bow in shape. The upper
lip should be more prominent than the
lower, II any distinction is made at all.
Needless to say. the mouth must never be
left open except when one is talking. A
certain authority on beauty has declared
that a beautiful mouth may be opened
enough to show five teeth This sounds
attractive but ia not hygienic. and is usu-
ally the mark OF vacant or inattentive
mind.
The best way to preserve the color OF
the lips is not by touching them up with
lip-stick OF rougeing them, but by keep
ing the bodily health good II the circu-
lation is defective. the lips will be pale
II you are anaemic. pallid lips are one of
the first visible signs of that state.
To make the lips healthily red you must
improve the tone OF the system in two
ways. Be sure to get enough sleep and eat
sufficient nourishing food Eat often and
lightly. That is far better than to eat sell

and eggs. Eggs have much iron in them
