are a~uNiously looking to him for their

there be not an increased supply OF
food pouring into the mills and har-
bors of this country. During this war
the United States has furnished Eu-.
rope a balanced ration to an average
of more than 5000. 600 yearly.
From now on we must not only
feed oar W soldiers who have been
taken from a class of producers, but
we must also provide for a vast army
of men who are called into all lines
of activity related to wal prepare

Buttons and the War.

Buttons are not generally regarded
as one of the great articles of COM
merce, yet report issued by the fed
eral tariff commission presents some
astonishing figures regarding the mag
nitude of the button industry and the
capital invested therein.
There are more than 500 button
manufacturing establishments in this
country, representing capital of ap-
proximately $2O,OO0O0O and an annual
payroll of $8OO0,OO0. The annual
value Of the products is more than
$2O,OO0,000. New York has almost half
the factories, but the middle West sup
plies most of the fresh-water pearl.
The war has put up the price of but
tons, owing to the advance in the cost
of metals used in button manufacture,
and the increased price of celluloid
sheets and all subsidiary raw materi-
ais, such as dyes, chalk, acids and can
vas. 1t is interesting to learn that the
war has stimulated the business in
this country and has led to the manu-
facture of glass buttons, which former
ly were imported-another instance Of
beating Germany at its own game.

TOPROTECT WIDOW
Egyptian. Wrote First win Of
Which There Is Record.
Papyrus on Which the Desires of Utah
Were Recorded Has Recently Been
Discovered in q Good State
of Preservation.

Utah, the Egyptian, looked out
from beneath his shaggy eyebrows
across the Nile, where the eternal
Pyramids shimmered in the heat
against the cloudless sky. Gods of
Egypt! How dim were those piles of
stone! In the bright light of the sun
god, Ra, he should have seen those
man-made mountains clearly.
Shades of his ancestors! His eyes
were dimming fast! He was getting
old-very old, so he suddenly realized.
He looked into the basin of the foun.
tain in the courtyard. The image re-
fected made him conscious, for the
first time, of his swiftly approaching
end. He sank down upon the foun-
tain's rim and unused upon the short
ness of life, it's varying fortunes and
the prospects af the future life-ac-
cording to the beliefs Of himself and
his fathers.
All, well, he was ready to die. He
did not fear after death to take the
journey with the sun god, Ra, in the
Boat of Million Years to the Fields
of Peace. No, by Amen, the god of
Thebes! Had not Utah led good
life?
Yes, he had always been just, mer-
ciful and kind to his servants and his
household. They had lacked nothing
while he lived, nor had his wife, Shelf
tu, the daughter of Sat Sepdu.
But, after he was gone-ah, Phara-
oh, the great one who gives life to his
people-would his memory be suffi-
cient to keep her from want or mis-
treatment? Would she ever be set out
of the great stone house as the wild
ows of others had been in the past?
A chill, sharper even than the chill
of old age, shook him. 1t was the chill
of fear for his beloved.
Then happy thought warmed his
veins again.
The people of his household and his
city ever had listened and obeyed his
spoken and written word during his
life. His words by voice or writing
were considered authority and whole
somely respected. Doubtless, then,
would his written words be followed
when he was in the Fields of Peace.
Strange, neither he nor anyone else
had thought of such thing before.
So with reeds, fluid and papyrus he
wrote in beautiful picture writing.
That happened more than 1900
years ago. However, the papyrus has
kept in a good state of preservation
all those centuries and was recently
discovered by excavators. Translated,
it proved to be the will or legacy of
Utah, allowing his wife, "Sheftu,
daughter of Sat Sepdu of Gesab." four
Eastern slaves and 1.-THE right to dwell
in my house without allowing her to
be put forth on the ground by any per
son."
The "will'' is considered by authori-
ties to be the first eyer drawn.

SHE GOT WHAT SHE WANTED
Young Irish Girl ResourcefuI When
Unaccustcmed Word Had Tempo
rstriIy Slipped Her Memory.

In his amusing book, "Old Irish
Life Mr.. L. M. Callwell tells story
of young peasant woman-Sally
Sweeny-who used to walk into Gal
way twice week to do shopping for
his family.
She could neither read nor write, yet
she never made a mistake with any of
the messages that were intrusted to
her.
Once, however, her memory did fail
her. One of the ladies of the family
had commissioned her to bring back q
yard of satin, and the unaccustomed
word had slipped out of Sally's recol-
lection.
She did not allow herself to be beat
en-, however, and made an effort to re-
call the word; so she went into the
principal shop in Galway still thinking
hard.
"What is't that We call the divil?'. she
asked, "whin It's not divil that We say
