Share OUR SUGAR
With The ALLIES
British Get Two Pounds a Month.
French Pound and Hail..
Italians One Pound.
GERMAN SUPPLY PLENTIFUL.
All Nations Permit Use of Sweetenlne
for Home Preserving Purposes.

Americas new sugar ration of two
pounds month per person is equita'
BILE when compared with the sugar ra-
tion enforced by rigid governmental
order in England, France and Italy, ma
tlons with which we are sharing sugar.
Each Allied nation-in the matter OF
sugar consumption-is sharing on near.
est possible equal terms the hardships
imposed by greatly altered conditions
I'm the world sugar situation.
Formerly classed as a luxury, sugar
is now a war time essential. The fair
and just division of this essential is
I'm the hands of the various Allied
food controllers.
The United States Food Administra-
ton has asked this nation to observe
a voluntary sugar ration OF two
pounds per person month.
In the other countries at war with
Germany sugar Is one of the scarce
articles on every menu-whether In
the households of both rich and poor,
or In the hotels.
England today has sugar ration
OF two pounds per month per person.
In France the ration Is pound and q
half and in Italy Ii is one pound a
month. And the prices I'm allied coun-
tries are from two TO three times as
high as I'm America.
II you 20 to hotel In England or
France these days and order tea or
coffee they serve absolutely no sugar
with Ii. If You want sugar you must
bring Ii with you.
In England II is allowable TO use
one-seventh of an ounce OF sugar In
the preparation Of each luncheon. In
France many persons carry little sac
charine tablets about with them for
use in hotels and in Englabd rich and
poor must take their sugar with them
If they wish to have swsetened tea
while visiting friends.
Before the war started France had
G25,OO0 acres devoted to sugar. produc-
ton. By 1917 the French sugar acre
age had decreased to 10000 acres.
Today the French man or woman with a
sugar card has no assurance whatever
that he or she will be ablesto actually
buy sugar. To buy II, one must first
find 1t.
Italy Has Estate Sugar"
Especially drastic regulations govern
the use of sugar In Italy.s Its manu-
facture, distribution and sale are close
ly controlled, and In part actually
taken over by the state.
Saccharine is permitted to be sold
and used as a substitute for sugar and
the government manufactures mix
ture of saccharine and sugar called
State Sugar." which Is largely used.
German Sugar Ration Adequate.
Germany, before the war, produced
q great surplus Of sugar and exported
large quantities. Today the Germans
have virtually gone out of the export
business, but have plenty Of cheap
sugar for home use.
Wholesale prices prevalent In the
Allied nations, according to informa-
ton received by the United States
Food Administration are as follows:
England, 10 cents a pound; France.
IL cents; Italy, 26 cents.
While >khsse high prices are being
paid abroad the American Wholesale
price Is being held at IN centA

Measures II ssii Protection.
One OF tie most interesting fact
about tbe hunan body is its power
of seIf pgeserya aoe-its power -
evading or overcoming the the :
sand and one conditions which, ua.
less corrected, wolld be injurious
or destructive.
Amons the most common OF
these acts OF self preservation arc
the cough, The snceze and the SIGH.
Every one l. familiar with the ,
acts, yet few people ever ask them
selves the cause, ara fever still
could explain them.
One of the simplest of the body's
devices for self protection is The
cough. The cough is merely biz.
of air propelled from the lungs IL
such a manner a. to forcibly dis
lodge some foreign substance which
has been drawn into the throat, tho
windpipe or the tubes leading TO
the lungs.
Why He eolted.
At one of the London clubs ono
evening Mr. Montagu Williams met
Lord -, who had just lost his fa-
ther. The young lord vas naturally
melancholy, and the lawyer pro-
posed visiting a theater opposite,
which proposition was accepted.
There was a slight fire in the thea
ter, whereupon the young lord was
among the first to bolt, like a rab-
Bit" out OF the building. Return
ing leisurely tothe club, Mr.. Will.
iams found there his young friend
quietly smoking cigar.
"What on earth made you bolt
that way? You seemed frightened
out of your wits (not difficult mat
ter perhaps). Don't you know that
on such an occasion if everybody
got up and rushed ont panic would
ensue, with very likely fatal conse-
quences! Why on earth couldn't
you sit still, as did? There was
nothing serious the matter" Cpon
this, with the ,posi patroni=ing air.
the young gentleman replied, "oh.
yes, that's very well for you, but
you've not just succeeded to Q pess7
age and 100000 year."

MYSTERY H0VERs OVER LAKE
Body Of Water In Central Africa Has
Most Curious Effect on Minds
OF Travellers.

Cold and gray are the waters which
Lake Tchad spreads over the lowlands
of central Africa. The traveller In
Africa finds the mystery Of the dark
continent more haunting and unfath-
omable here than In the battling mazes
of the Jungle or In the silent smile Of
the sphinx. Heavy winds toss the
shallow waters about and whisper their
secrets through the reeds. But the
lake makes no answering condolences.
1t stretches on and on. measuring Its
miles Of surface In sweeping wave
lengths.
AS far MS the eye can see ahead are
the reeds and rushes reaching up
through the water In tangled masses.
Here and there the line Of the gray ex-
panse is broken by slender Islands
bearing up n few round-topped native
huts, outlined dimly against the sky
line. The effect is that OF painting
seen through gray glasses, reducing
the whole to low key. 1t Is In the
grayness that the lakes effect OF mys-
terry lies. the grayness that hovers
dull and cheerless over waving reeds.
The traveller gazing across Lake
Tchad for the first time feels the thrill
Of discovery. The knowledge that he
is not the first to stand upon the banks
does not dIspel the feeling Of entering
the most shut-off place In central
Africa.

this, the Christian Science Monitor
says
"In spite OF the fine feeling Of en-

Siam should have decided to discard
her own splendldly original flag, show
ing white elephant on red field, for
n tricolor resembling that OF the greni

IN the red. white and blue flag the
