Tr the city Of Posen, In the German

woman In the world is about to enter
upon her one hundred thlrty-fourth
year Of her life, unless death has over
come her since the receipt Of the latest
news from that part Of Europe. She
Is Frau Gretchen Dutkiewitz, and she
has spent practically all her life In
Posen. She was young woman when
Napoleon and his legions swept like
a conflagration over Europe, and has
lived to see similar catastrophe en-
gulf almost the entire civilized world.
Frederick the Great was still alive
when Frau Dutkiewitz was born, end
only few years before Voltaire had
gone to his rest. The German empire
Of today was then an aggregation OF
petty. warning states, and the Ameri-
can Union had just been born out of
the travail of revolution. These CEN
tufies--the eighteenth, the nine
teenth and the twentieth--this woman
has seen, and within the compass OF
her lifetime new civilization has
sprung up in Europe and America, q

threatened by the land which gave her
birth.-New York World. -.

MORE SUGAR IS ALLOTTED

More sugar is allotted to Wisconsin
for December as result of the i'm
provement in the world sugar situa-
ton. The signing of the armistice en-
ables us to get sugar from distant
ports.
Beginning December first, four
pounds month will be allowed each
person and four pounds for every 80
meals to public eating places.
Manufacturers of Class A, including
makers of candy, soft drinks, chew
ing gum, etc., will be given twice as
much sugar in December as they re-
ceived in November. They had been
reduced to so per cent of the amount
they used during the corresponding
months in 1917. Now they will have
the same sugar supply that they con-
sumed in those months in 1917.
Sweet milk condensaries will be
permitted to have full requirements of
sugar, and new condensaries will be
granted permission to start and to re-
ceiye an allotment of sugar. All re-
strictions with reference to the use
of sweetened condensed milk by con-
fectiorers, ice cream manufacturers
and others, are removed
Bakers of Class d will also be given
an increase in sugar so that they will
have the same amount as they used
during corresponding period in 1917.

WANTED HIS MONEYS WORTH
Nobleman Evidently Had Some Idea
That Great Musician Was Giving
Him the Worst Of 1t.

Wieniawski had his humorous expert
ences, this even after he was quite
widely known, writes Alexander Bloch
in the New York Times. On one occa-
sion he was asked by a wealthy Brit
ish nobleman to state his terms for
playing. half an hour at his home.
They came to an agreement, and on
the evening Of the musicale Wieniaw-
ski opened the program with Beeth0v-
ems "Romanze In f."
He was playing his best and deeply
engrossed in the music when he sud-
denly noticed out Of the corner Of his
eye the host nervously looking at his
watch. This happened several times
before the "Romanze" was finished.
AT its close, as he was bowling his &C
acknowledgements to rapturous applause,
the British peer caught him by the
sleeve and whispered In his ear:
"For heavens sake, man, how much
DO you expect to get through In half
an hour at this rate? Why do you
play such slow piecesf"

PEACE ENDS FIGHTING
BUT NOT FOOD SAVING

I Is your wish to eat greater than
your ideals?
Our Allies, and 180,000,000 starving
peoples on the eastern front who need
our help must have large shipments OF
food sent to them They cannot ever
plant crops until next spring.
Now that the war is over, we wal
save food still = we will save even
more because we can reach more PEG
pie.
A clean plate means clean con
scienee-if it isn't piled too high
Oyer-eating is cheating. Order a ligh'
meal-eat it ALL Saving food is say
ing lives from starvation.
Can you waste food when you rea
lie that?
Don't celebrate peace by making
others suffer. That's poor kind o
q celebration.

ger. Help them out.

Erench Labor SHORTAGE

The lack Of labor has become more
acute in almost all the vital industries
of France. There are many soldiers
of the old classes in the French army,
men 40 years Of age or more, whose
usefulness at the front is question
open to debate. Agitation has been
going on since the time when American
participation in the war made the de-
mand for men less acute at the battle
front to relieve the old Poilus. Early
in 1917 the doubtful privilege of an
honorable discharge was granted to
