BUYING LIBERTY BONDS

HE MAN who buy Liberty bonds and who does not do so is beginning to fare harshly. It inevitable that something of the kind would happen The comparative charity which exercised toward sackers and maconten grew of the lack of need sricter public opinion til the boys actually in France it not necessary to rebuke sshness to punish the unpatriotc. When the fighting began and the lists of dead and wounded began to in, the condition changed The took intimate personal aspect especially for those who have engaged and for those who expect to have men engaged.
 No longer could public opinion view with tolerance the pro- German, the npatrioc, the cody selfish individual who held his couny need inferior to his desire to or to- spend at his pleasure.
 From all parts of the country reports of the summary methods adopted against ackers of these expressions abroad in Norwak They have been interviewing reluctant marked with especial contumacy The alternative has been that the rcalctrant will purchase bonds coat of tar and feathers.
 These have been effective without the unfortunate necessity of actually heating the tar In Norwak least the men who were approached became liberal purchasers.
 It is really too bad that these lynch law methods should prevail But they always have prevailed in time of war Everybody is familiar in the historical ene with the treat ment given tories during the Revolutionary and cop perheads during the Civil
 The authorities ought to discourage these methods At the me citizens who buy Liberty bonds will not ought to buy and refrain from offering provocaon

FAMOUS LETTER WAS WRITTEN TO
 PRINCE SIXTUS Peace Offerings Were Sent in Emperor Charles Docu-
 ment to Belgian. PROMISED TO AID ALSACE-LORRAINE Complaint Made By Mem bers of Imperial House of Austria by Archduke.

Amsterdam, April 25-The Berlin Tageblatt prints the following dis patch from Vienna:
 ''The members of the imperial house of Austria met at the arch dukes palace and decided through him to point out to the emperor the prejudicial consequences which the activities of members of the house of Bourbon de Parma residing abroad might have for the interest of the house of Hapsburg-Lorraine.'' The complaint of the members of the imperial house evidently has ref erence to the case of Prince Sixtus of Bourbon de Parma, brother of the Austrian empress, who was Princess Zita of Bourbon de Parma.
 It was to Prince Sixtus, an officer in the Belgian army, that Emperor Charles wrote his famous letter of March 31, 1917 in which he made peace suggestions for unofficial sub- mission to France and England and, as revealed by the text made public by the French government early this month, alluded to Frances just claims regarding Alsace-Lorraine, '' which he promised to support. The complications which followed the publication of this letter included the issuance of numerous Austrian | statements in explanation and denials to heal Germany's injured feelings, and the resignation of Count Czernin, the Austro-Hungarian foreign minis ter, and his succession by Baron Bur- | ian, diplomat said to be thoroughly acceptable to Germany.

CLEVER POLICE
 OFFICIAL WILL LAND NEW BERTH

New York, April 25-Police In spector Thomas J. Tunney, who as commander of the bomb and neu- trality'' squad, solved many sensa- tional German plots and brought numerous offenders to justice, has been taken over" by the war depart ment. He was today granted six months leave of absence beginning May 1, when he will report to Wash ington. It is understood that he may be placed in charge of a special di- vision of secret service operatives covering eastern states.
 Tunney was instrumental in clear ing up the mystery of the bomb ex- plosion in the capitol in Washington three years ago, for which Frank Holt, assailant of J. P. Morgan, was responsible. He is credited with ef- fecting the arrest of Franz Rintelen, Paul Koenig and other German plot ters, and gathering the evidence against Emma Goldman and Alexan- der Berkman.

DON'T YOU LIKE TO
 WASH DISHES?

Not many women do, especially when it is a matter of plunging ones hands into greasy water. But dish washing is being gradually robbed of it's unpleasantness by patented de- vices. Here is a new one, which promises to keep the housewife's hands entirely out of water It is in the nature of a bath spray attached by a rubber hose to the faucet At the end of the hose is an arrange ment with a handle concealing a cake of soap, over which the water flows from the hose and through to a brush, which scrubs off the dishes as neatly as you can wish. A pressing of the finger on a button at the side releases clear water for rinsing pur- poses. One. precaution should be kept in mind, and that is to use only a very hard soap, as the constant play of water over a soft soap will prove an unforgivab1e extravaganza in this day of conservation.

FOR THE CHILDREN.

A worsted ball makes an excellent plaything for a little baby. If it is suspended from his carriage or crib it will help him to learn to focus his eyes and he will be amused by it for a long time. When the child is a little older let him sit on quilt on the floor and play with several balls in the six primary colors-red. orange, yellow, green, blue and vio- let. Each ball should have a worst ed string attached to it. When the child is a little older still play simple games with him, such as rock-a-bye- baby, pendulum of a clock, swinging the ball back and forth and up and down and in other ways that will oc- cur to every mother. Unconscious ly the child will acquire q sense of form, color, motion and position by these games.
