Reclaimed Brick In Construction.

Reclaimed brick makes an interest
ing wall, with much variation of color
and texture. An effect similar to that
of the finest patchwork of colonial
times. usually obtained only through
the careful selection of new bricks.
may be easily produced by the use of
reclaimed bricks.
Upon removal from the old buildings
these bricks are cleaned, and after
they are laid in the new work are
treated with a sand blast. which re-
stores them to their original condition.
Efiorescence, which sometimes APP
pears upon the surface of new brick
work, seldom appears upon reclaimed
bricks.

NOW TO EXCHANGE
 WHEAT FOR FLOUR.

A recent change in the rules of the National Food Administration Twill greatly benefit the Arkansas far mers who have raised wheat enough to provide their own flour, accord inp to letter received yesterday by the Arkansas Profitable Farming Bureau of the Little Rock Board of Commerce from w. N. Adams, gener- al manager of the Philadelphia Mill ing Company.
 The new ruling permits farmers who have raised wheat to draw a years supply of flour for his fam fly at one time. The amount allowed by the Food Administration is IA pounds per person for a year. The new ruling will permit the farmer to exchange his wheat for years supply of flour for his household.
 MT. Adams announces that his firm is paying $2.10 a bushel for wheat on an exchange basis and only $2.05 for cash.
 We cannot sell flour to consum- ers," wrote Mr. Adams" "but we can furnish him with flour on ex- change, under the new government ruling, at five and one-half cents per pound bulk. This means $l0.56 for the regular 192 pounds of flour that you would buy from any dealer. This is whole lot less than we could .osossibly sell flour in straight car lots.
 'sIn other words, the government is encouraging wheat raising in every way possible and has made it possi- ble for us to pay the farmer more for his wheat and at the same time to sell him the flour on an exchange basis for whole lot less than he could possibly sell to the jobber. In this way the farmer can save more than $1.50 per barrel on his flour by raising the wheat at home."

swallow the story that all the Ger mans were forced into these atroc- ities with absolute proof that the Bavarians worked single-handed and in apparent glee at many of these hellish outrages? It would seem that a good American would starve rather than foul his lips with food from German utensil. That's the way it looks, but after all it's up to one single class of Americans, over whose doors are lettered the big word, BUYER.

selves to forget sufficiently to pur- chase a surgical instrument made in Germany? Never! The memory of those doctors and nurses who lost their lives in the Llandovery Castle murder cry in protest even against the thought. The Germans may ship their instruments over here without identifying marks Not if true Americans are in the purchasing de- partment. Is Germany's surgical instrument business dead in Ameri4 ca? MT. Buyer, it's up to you.
 Say loyal American, how would you have liked to have you wife in the town of Gembloux when it was captured by the Germans? Scoi of innocent people were butchered there. The raping of women and young girls was common and con- tinuous. One young woman was outraged by several soldiers, stripped naked and fastened to the door of her own home by cutlass driven through her chest with suf- ficient force to hold the body to the heavy panels. Her breasts were brutally cut off, and with her head hanging, and her hair flying in the wind, the body of that poor young martyr stiffened in death. Horri- ble, yes more hideous than the In- dian massacres that caused our pioneers to shudder in the early days of the West. Brutal and beast ly. You may we'll thank God that your loved ones were not in Gem bloux.
 Before the war we imported an- nually millions of dollars worth of kitchen enameled ware from Ger many and Austria. These utensils were used in the kitchens of Ameri- can homes. There was probably some of the same ware in the kitch- en back of that blood-stained door in Gembloux.
 Before the war American manu- lecturers had made great strides in the manufacture of enameled wares. Their goods were favorably known in every state in the Union, yet in al- most every American town there was a line of heavy-coated colored wares and of white enameled wares that came from the Central Powers. The blockade against their shipping quickly broke these foreign stocks and the odds and ends were cleared up with special sales. Complete lines of enameled wares made in our factories have replaced them. Will German and Austrian enameled wares go on to our shelves again when the Kaiser and his Prussian war maniacs are whipped? Will we

of thousands Of Red CoSS workers
 are using shears and scissors to
 make bandages. Before the war we
 bought 100000 dozen scissors from
 the Central Powers annually. Amer
 ican factories making scissors and shears are busy places now and
 they are making very good scissors
 and shears. After the war, Ger

 up to you.
 Belgium, poor, brave, outraged
 little Belgium! When Germany threw to the winds treaty she term ed "scrap of paper," she not only
 shredded her honor, but tore to bits
 business contracts that will never
 be pasted together again. Ameri- ca has fed starving Belgium. We fed and clothed and cared for her suffering people long before we be-
 came her proud ally on the battle fields. Thousands of orphaned Bel gian and French children have been adopted into American homes. In the days to come are we going to force these children to play with German-made toys? God forbid. American toy manufacturers have stripped us of the last vestige of an excuse for the purchase of toys from the Huns. Our factories are making more toys than we ever inn ported, and they are not the flimsey jim-cracks we formerly bought from abroad They are largely exercise toys which develops child's body, or mechanical or structural toys which train the mind Before the war we imported eight million dol lars worth of toys from the Central Powers. Who will make our kid dies toys in the days to come? Once more, MT. Buyer, it's up to you.
 A few weeks ago the Llandovery Castle, Red Cross hospital ship, was sunk by German submarine That great ship was fully equipped to care for wounded, suffering sol diers. It's only passengers were doctors and nurses. It was marked
 fessst4l essstl Fed tt444t5e ef red red electric lights. The sides of that ship were Illuminated, showing for miles away the character of the yes sel. There was no possible chance of mistaking the L3andovery Castle for anything but a hospital ship. And damn them, they deliberately torpedoed that ship and took Amer ican doctors from open life boats and abused them. The shock of this distinctly brutish act was little softened by the fact that we have been pretty we'll trained to ex- pect such atrocities from the Aus trians and Germans, who have de- shot our doctors, out ragged our nurses, bombed our hos pitals and destroyed other hos pital ships. It is Kultur spelled with a "K."
 Before the war we imported from the Central Powers practically every surgical instrument used in Ameri- ca, not because we couldn't make them, but because the volume of such business was comparatively small and the Germans made a spe- ,ialty of handmade surgical tools. The other day in Washington I saw the set of surgical instruments i adopted by the medical chief of our army. Practically every instrument could be readily made by any of our pher manufacturers and the orders ] are running into such quantities that they will be stamped out as are American-made pliers. In the days | to come will those American sur geons who are seeing and caring 'or- fhe thousands of victims of l Hu9 atrocities ever permit them

 MIR. BUYER, IT'S UP TO YOU.
 (By Roy F. Soule.)
 The other night one of General Pershing's boys went out into Mo- Man's-Land. He didn't come back. Three hours later a searching party went out to find him. That boy had been killed and his body hacked to bits. His comrades gathered up the remains and brought them back in sack. That brave young Ameri- can was chopped to pieces by Ger man cutlery Before the war we bought two million dollars worth of German pocket cutlery each year.
 In the past three years American factories have vastly increased their output of pocket knives. Patterns have been simplified; quality has been improved; an American indus try has been encouraged and devel- oped; Made in Germany" on a knife blade carried in an American pocket has become but distaste- ful memory.
 Shall we be customers of these blood stained butchers after the war? I hardly think so, but it is up to you, MT. Buyer.
 A captured British officer was recently found with his throat cut from ear to ear. This brutal job fdu Deeu QOHe WlIH very keeH- edged instrument. It was not the work of a trench knife.

 Since the war began razor facto- ries in the United States have en- joyed a greatly increased business. Their employees are well-paid, con- tented Americans. The industry must be perpetuated. German com petition in the days to come should suffer a handicap in proportion to German crimes of today.
 When the dove of peace lights in the pool of blood, shall we go on buying German razors? It doesn't seem possible, Mr. Buyer, it's up to you.

Simple Remedies That Will
Rid the Living Rooms and
Offices of All CockroaChes

The nuisance of reaches in offices
and living rooms Of houses can be re-
duced, if not removed entirely, by the
elimination of all attractive sub
stances, according TO the United States
Department of Agriculture.
Reaches will not frequent rooms
unless they find some available food
material, and if such materials can be
kept from living rooms and offices or
scrupulous care exercised to see that
no such material is placed in drawers
where it can leave an attractive odor
or fragments of food, the roach
nuisance a be largely restricted to
places where food necessarily must be
kept. In such places the storage of
food material In insect-proof contain
ers or ice boxes, together with thor
~ough-going cleanliness, will go a long
way toward preventing serious annoy
ance.
Reaches as household pests may be
controlled by the use of various pol
sons, repellents, and fumigants, and by
trapping. The more efficient Of these
remedies are powders, particularly So
dunn f1uorid, a liberal busting of
which about the infested premises fur
nishes an efficient means for the elm
ination of these pests. Also one part
powdered borax and three parts finely
pulverized chocolate sprinkled freely
about infested premises.
C~ockroaches are the commonest and
most offensive of the house pests.
Four kinds are often found in houses,
Offices, etc. These are the American
roach, a native insect; the European
or Oriental roach, known in England
as the black beetle; the Australian
roach; and the little German roach.
commonly known In this country as
the Croton bug.

An Eighty-F:ive- Year-0ld
Woman Tells How to Grow
Aged Happily, Gracefully.

AT the age Of eighty-iye Elizabeth
Cady Stanton wrote on the subject of
growing old easily, happily and grace
fully:
II attribute my vigorous old age in
part to advantageous circumstances"
she said, "in part to happy, hopeful
temperament, a keen of humor,
sympathies for all my fellow beings
and a deep interest in all the vital
questions of the hour.
"One must have an earnest purpose
in life beyond personal ambition and
family ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. S~elf-centered
characters do not possess the neces-
sary elements of a high development.
If one would have a happy old age,
the first condition is a sound body to
that end exercise, diet, dress, sanitary
conditions are all important.
Nature does her best at all periods
of woman's life TO make each change
one of added health and happiness.
Those obedient to her laws rejoice in
every step from youth to age.
