is a fungus which attacks the bios

LUKE M'LUKE SAYS

You maye have noticed that the pages of the family Bible never show wear and tear the way the cover does.
 A man could get up and fix his own breakfast if he had to. But his wife would be certain to hear about it every day for the next six months
 And what has become of the old-fash- toned woman who thought she was in. viting insult if she painted her face?
 When mother tells the children about what good times she used to have when she was 9 girl she glares at father as if he was the cause of her lost girlhood
 Even when woman has money she often goes through her husbands poclS. cts just to see who is writing to him these days.
 The man who is always broke can tell you that eternity is the space between Wednesday and pay day
 Every woman in town wastes lot of time telling her husband that she wished she had a husband like other women have.
 Another funny thing is how woman loves to wash baby and how she hates to wash the dishes.
 And what has become of the o. f. baby that used to be rocked to sleep in a cradle? And what has become of the f. cradle?
 You may have a hard time getting a small boy Christmas present that will please him. But, for the love of Mike don't get him a manicure set.
 When you marry. the preacher says that you are one. But the grocery bill says that you are two.
 Do not judge by appearances. It often happens that the man with the paste board suitcase in his hand has moroc- co check book in his pocket.

* * * Prolonged Suspense Will Soon Be Ended

N FTER December 25-and it is fit EA ting that it should be marked by Christmas Day-many an Ameri- can home where there has been anx- iety over the fate of a soldier will be reasonably sure that the loved one is not in the dreaded list, "Killed in action"
 Officials of the war department state that compilation of the casualty lists has advanced so far that the next of kin of every American soldier killed in battle will have been noti- fled by tomorrow. Relatives of all soldiers seriously wounded will have been notified by December 28.
 The number of casualties reported daily is rapidly decreasing. About one week ago approximately 7S00 names day were sent out by the cas- ualty bureau. December 19 the num- Der had dropped to 2200. Sometime early in January it is hoped that the last casualty list vii disappear.

ONE BOYS EASY SUCCESS

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
 Ferdinand Dournier aged about l4, had an object to attain and a precocous con- licity to get what he wanted. For just 24 hours he was a heroic little figure in New York, a pathetic relic of bloody French zones of warfare and Prusslan destruction. At the end of that time he was just an entertaining, plausible ju- had a good home and considerate at tenton with well modulated flattery and stacks of sympathy as a fraternal deco ration from warm hearted people of New York Now he has the certainty of permanent home as the adopted son ot a wealthy French woman who probably admires his graceful genius as fction- ist in spite of it's drawbacks.
 The boy simply allowed himself to be

 ng a French paper at a water front dock was enough to put the officer on his professional mettle and the usual perfunctory questioning did the rest fol the boys purpose-all no doubt carefully planned. trip to the police station was the inevitable second stage and the romantic story of his life in wartorn France was continued. He made instant hit and hls future was secured indef- nitely. The next day inquiries began to come in and callers at the station recog nized the romancer, who finally con fessed that only a portion of his cap tivity yarn is true--the smallest part. The exchange of his talents for home of wealth and opportunity which is much more valuable, may be far from the best example to hold up before boys who are proud of their truthfulness anl honor The youthful mind is easily inn pressed and the dashlng success of this little soldier of fortune, with his inno- cent face and well-told lie, smiIingy con fessed at the proper moment, may not be unmixed in its moral effects. Men have spent years without getting half so far as this little stranger in a strange land with only the grace of childhood to aid him.

4WAS IT EAIRs

From the New York Telegram.
 At a meeting of women in Carnegie hall MT James w. Gerard, instead of making an address, proposed that his au- dience ask him questions and he would reply to them.
 To the query How about an economic boycott? Is it fair?' MT. Gerard straight cned stiffly as he answered.
 Was it fair for Germany to starve prisoners? Was it fair to devastate France and Belgium?
 Was it fair to take 2O,0o0 ladies, like you in the audience, and compel them to work and live with Prussian troops you know what that means? Was is fair to sink the Lusitania?
 Was it fair to sink unarmed mer- chantmen and murder the sailors? Was it fair to do any of these things, con trary to international law, of which Germany has been guilty?
 If the boycott comes, it will not nee essarily come from the allied powers; it will come from the heart of the world There is no contrition in Germany; SC far we have heard nothing but the squeals and squawks of a bully when he is down.
 Occurs that it was an oversight not to have our ambassador to Germany during the war in the United States peace party now in Paris.

LEAVE OUR DEAD IN FRANCE

From the Independent (N. Y).
 On hearing that the government pro posed to bring back for burial in this country the bodies of American soldiers fallen abroad, ex-President Roosevelt writes to General March, chief of staff:
 Mrs. Roosevelt and I wish to enter most respectful but most emphatic pro- test against the proposed course so far as our son Quentin is concerned. We have always believed that Where the tree falls, there let 1t lie.
 We know that many good persons feel entirely different. but to us it is pain full and narrowing long after death to move the poor body from which the soul has fled, We greatly prefer that Quen- tin shall continue to lie on the spot where he fell in battle and where the foeman buried him"
 In reply General March says he is in entire sympathy with MT, Roosevelts attitude and that General Pershing has authority to pursue the same course in cases where the relatives express sim liar wish. We hope that most of them
