 All this about through harmonious action and the absence of any skrmshng for party or fac tiona advantage. To go through the program and to get away appeared to be the controlling notion.
 There rather less of the controversial spirit in the house than usual Though the members were much divided they had been many measures they were disposed not to dwell their differences and thereby the torridty which in that end of the capitol is something fierce. We hope that the program will smoothly and that at the end the members may separate with less acrimony than has attended their daily meetings.

Americans in France

On the authority of Secretary Baker we have sent 100000 men to France. Thus conjectures which have arranged from 50O,000 to 100000 have been reduced to a certainty A week ago Senator J. Ham Lewis publicly stated that there more than million American soldiers in France That not convincing. None of J. Hams statements They extravagant his raiment his pink whis kers matter of a few hundred thousand men, more or less. would not trouble J. Ham. Where mill lions concerned he recognizes round number smaller than million
 The next day after J. Ham electrified his hearers by that announcement it denied authoritatively that there many there. Until Secretary Baker made his statement Monday there were probably not half dozen men in the country who knew how many Americans were in France.
 We cannot conceive it as public service to over estimate the forces America has sent abroad what ever the number may be- Whether there are many or few they have given and will give proper account of themselves. To overestimate the number who really there unfair to them tends to raise expectations perhaps unjustfed Only when America shall have full two million for the fighting front will 1t be justifiabe to begin expect the beginning of the victory which is to be- In the meantime in all likelihood, tremendous battle will be fought in front of Paris. in which both sides will be greatly weak ened. the allied lines hold then that will be victory enough for this year.

TONGA PATRIOTIC;
 NO USE FOR KAISER
(New York World)

Germany's interesting relations with the little kingdom of Tonga in the South Pacific are recalled by recent incidents there. A few years back a life-size portrait of the kaiser mounted within a massive gilt frame was pre- sented by the German government to King George Tuboa II, the present ruler of the archipelago. Forthwith this. picture adorned the walls of the wooden palace at Uukualofa, the capi- tai of the kingdom. Germans-who shortly before the war, were rather conscious in Tonga-were wont to ad- mire the painting when they came to pay their respects to King George Moreover, close at hand were busts of the Emperor Frederick of Germany and Prince von Bismarck. So delight- fully informal in many ways is the Tongan court that the busts did exz cellent service as hat racks on festive occasion.
 But no so with the present from the "All Highest" But alack for the big picture of the kaiser in little Tonga, After the war had been in progress for some time the fact of it's existence and whereabout came within the pur- view of the British government and that government requested the Tongan government to remove it from the pal ace. The pith of this request was that Tonga is British protectorate.
 But notwithstanding Tonga is British protectorate it is the last in- dependent kingdom in the Pacific and it brides itself on having not only a monarch but a cabinet and a parlia- ment. So the request about the kais- CTS portrait was brought up at the last session of the legislative assembly. The prime minister was instantly to inform the house that the offense to the sentiments and dignity of Tonga had already been got rid of. This is so, for the other day the picture, torn from its gilded setting and with its face to the wall. was found in the dis card so to speak. in a room in the government offices in Nulkualofa.

A Death Trap

The Joint Head instead of being pleasure resor, has become a death trap. The chief wonder is that the victims far have been few and that the row escapes from death many There is a twenty foot depth of water and for all fatal purposes it is as effectual if it thousand feet deep. Per- haps if it a thousand feet deep. that depth would act something of a deterrent.
 The place is not lighted and that adds to the chances of the lurking death There is guard for the preservation of the lives of those who take chances in the water and been told that there no moral safeguards thrown about the place. All sorts of people go there and do go there.
 We believe the county authorities should take action in relation to the matter, or perhaps water users should do so. At any rate something should be done.

BATHING IN FRANCE
 COMMUNITY AFFAIR
(Harper's MagaZine)

There are not (you can hear can't you, the supercilious Anglo-Saxon tourist saying. "of course there are not") any bathroom in the houses. nor in the one little inn. And yet the peo- pie take plenty of baths. and in big porcelain bathtubs, too. bigger and deeper and fuller of hot water than those we have in our houses.
 Among the many curious little indus tries of the place is the etablisement des bains. As you go down the main street of a morning you stop in and fill up a little printed card stating that you wish hot Cor coid). plain Cor per fumed or. sulphur or starch or what not) bath, at such and such an hour. The little old woman in charge notes your hour, and stokes up her stove ac- cording to the schedule of the day. When you arrive you are shown into an immediately clean tiled bathroom, with an enormous tub. lined with a clean sheet Git has been definitely de- cided by doctors that this precaution obviates any possibility of contagion), and filled with clear, sparkling hot water. You can rent your towels for 2 cents apiece. and you may bring them | from home, if you prefer. Of course, being unused to this particular way of killing the cat, you feel rather foolish and queer to be taking a bath in a community bath tub instead of in your own. But the bath is fine one with | a cold rub down at the end there is no danger of taking cold; and as you dress. glowing and refreshed, you can not put out of your mind some such colloquy as this:
 Yes, of course, I prefer a bathtub in my own house. Everybody would. But suppose I haven't money enough to have one? At home in town like this. you can only get a bath, or give it to your children. if you have capital enough to buy, install, and keep up a bathroom of your own. Here you can have an ever better one, any time you can spare 15 cents in cash. Which method produces the bigger area of clean skin in given community"
 You usually end your colloquy by quoting to yourself. laughingly, the grandly American minded remark of the boy from Illinois, whose reaction to the various eye-openers about him was thus formulated:
 | N DO you know, the thing we want to do at home is to keep all the good ways of doing things we've got already and then add all the French ones. too

Schliemann when ne dug the royal palace at Tiryns Ca city older than Troy) found a bathroom, with remains of earth enware tub which had hole in the bottom to let out the water removal of plug.
 The Sybarites of old, who preceded the Romans in Italy, are said to have invented vapor baths.

The Enlisted and the Drafted Man

The thoughtless sometimes make distinction between the enlisted and the drafted the selected Now and then one is heard to say My husband my my brother went and was not sent" We do not like to hear this because. except the of slackers who have been forced go against their will there should be distinction between the enlisted men and the drafted men.
 Under the selective draft every fit for mil- tary service is that he will at sometime go and that the disposition of him will be in the hands of the government. Though remaining home, he leaves himself fully at the disposal of the He stands ready to go when the nation needs him and ready to take any part that may be assigned him. Is not if that by remaining, there would somehow be a chance to escape the draft He knows that there are only two avenues to escape-death or ill health.
 Of the enlisted men some. we believe a majority of them gone be of service to their country; of their mpatence participate in the war. Others. who have enlisted, have done only anticipating the draft They have availed themselves opportunity of making a choice of the service. Perhaps some of them have been moved to choose positions in which there will be less hardship and danger.
 The man who waits until he is called elects to exercise such choice or any choice. He is some thing of a volunteer himself He volunteers to take what comes to him; to go where his nation tells him to go and to do what he is told to do.
 The man who waits in this spirit is apt to be a first class soldier. There here no disparagement of the enlisted man. We would only remove an inn presson that is sometimes thoughtlessly the drafted man is loterer. We have doubt that but for the certainty of the draft there many man now waiting who would be at the front And we may add that but for the draft there may enlisted men in the service who would still be at home

Two souIed Woman at the Hip

Not since "Trilby" startled the world with her bare feet and dual person. ality has there been a story that has had more publicity than "The Two Souled Woman" which serves to bring Priscilla Dean to the Hip screen this date.
 This modern story of a beautiful and wealthy girl named by reason of her sweet disposition and love of the good Joy" is one Of the most remarkable that has been sent to the camera in months. It was the story awarded the $1, 900 prize in the scenario contest re- gently in New York city, and holds for its charm the dual personality of the beautiful Joy" woman and the worst human cat that ever drew the breath of life. One the embodiment of all that is good and sweet, is the direct oppo- site of the other unwomanly, coarse, masculine creature a disgrace to her sex and a blot on the map of her section.
 How this one woman possessed these two personalities and how handsome stranger cast on her hospitality by an auto accident solves the riddle when he falls in love with the ''good'' Joy and routes the devil responsible, is the pith of The Two Souled Woman"

Mary Garden at Empress

When Mary Garden returned from France last autumn to begin work in Goldwyns "Thais'' she brought with her any number of modern gowns created for her by Doucet, Callot, Paquin and other countries. Also she brought some magnificent furs. Not that she thought they would be re- quired for any purpose except in her social life. But when she decided to appear in a drama of today all her wonderful belongings immediately be- came doubly valuable to her. In The Splendid Sinner" which is being shown for the last times today at the Elm press, she wears any number of these lovely things. as a matter of course. It is her furs, however, which give the singer greatest delight. One garment in particular is worthy of lingering consideration. It is an ermine coat, cut short and hanging loosely from the shoulders. Bordering it eighteen inches deep is a sumptuous sweep of Russian sable.
