MAKE THEIR OWN SHOES

The tremendous increase in the
price OF shoes in Italy has caused the
creation in various Italian centers of
associations of women who take les
sons from an expert shoemaker in
shoe-making, not only for themselves,
but also for philanthropical purposes.
1t is now a common occurrence for
an Italian woman to point with pride
to her feet shod with shoes of her
own making. All classes of society
are taking up this work, that has had
also the advantage of uniting in a
common purpose of national economy
and of charity Italian women of all
stations.

TOBACCO IS
 A NECESSITY
 PRESENT WAR
It May Be Necessary to Adopt Tobacco Ration ing in Order to Sup
 ply the Troops.

LONDON, Aug. 23.-This war, a London paper points out, is the first great conflict in history which has been fought on tobacco.
 In all previous wars the nations engaged have supplied their fight CTS more or less generously with food, equipment and munitions, but rarely with luxuries. In the pres. ent war public and private agencies have been working from the outset in all the belligerent countries to provide the soldiers with little lex tras," and the chief of these has been tobacco.
 To British soldiers almost uncount- able millions of cigarettes and hun dreds of tons of pipe tobacco have been sent. duty free. But despite these enormous shipments, the con- sumption of tobacco in the British Isles has steadily increased. The cost of tobacco has climbed from 12 cents to AS cents a pound for the low grade dark American product, and a light China tobacco used for blending purposes has jumped from 12 cents to 95 cents a pound.
 Anxiety and nervous strain insep- arabic from a great war are held re- sponsible for the increase of smoking at home. Testimony from the front is that without generous supplies of tobacco the men could not withstand the strain of continuous conflict
 England's chief source of supply is the United States, and the fear is entertained here that owing to the wars possible interference with pro. duction there and an increased home demand, the amount available for this country may be materially les sened. Bonded stocks here are even now dangerously depleted owing to decreased imports.
 France and Italy, with less ex tensive sources of supply. have been spared no efforts to meet the tobac. co needs of their soldiers, and the same is true of Germany.
 The London press is speculating whether it may not yet become nee essary to institute some system of tobacco rationing for those smokers not engaged in productive war work.

HIS TURN TO LAUGH CAME
Gloriously Even for That Lady
Teachers Smoker.

AS has been remarked, the laun-
dress invariably folds and irons the
handerchiefs so the raggedest ones
look whole and immaculate as they
lie piled up in the bureau drawer, and
you don't know the difference until you
unfold your clean square o. white after
you have left the house.
"a few Sundays ago." relates Tom
Thompson of Howard, 'our Sunday
school superintendent, while reading
the announcement for the day, felt the
sudden approach of a sneeze. He
quickly reached for his handkerchief,
and as he had brought about the rag
gedest rag of rag he ever saw, and
1t scared his sneeze away entirely. He
hastily crowded it back into his pocket,
but not until a few had seen it, and
one dignified lady teacher almost
snickered out loud.
"a few minutes later this same lady
had occasion TO use her handkerchief,
and when she drew it from her hand
bag and shook it Quito, it almost
fell in two, split from one hem to the
other with a frazzled rent. And as a
judgment on her for laughing at him.
the superintendent just CHANGED to be
looking her way-and did he laugh2

She laid her frowsy old head on her
arms, like one who is utterly crushed
and dumb.
"Oh, Marthy!" Billy Louise knelt
and threw her arms around Marthy's
shoulders.
Marthy's chin began to culver. Her
lips sagged with the pull of her aching
heart. For the third time in her life
Billy Louise saw big, slow tears gather
in Marthy's hard blue eyes and slide
down the leathery seams in her cheeks.
Billy Louise looked. found her vision
blurring with her own tears, and
turned from the room.
Seabeck was gone somewhere on mis-
horse. Billy Louise guessed shrewdly
that he was down in the meadows,
looking over the cattle and trying to
estimate the extent of the thievery.
She put Blue in the stable and fed
him. with that half-mechanical habit
of attending to the needs of ones
mount which becomes second nature to
the range-bred. She would not go on
to the Wolverine; that needed no de-
ciSion; she accepted it at once as q
fact. Marthy needed her now more
than anyone. More even than Ward,
though Billy Louise hated to think
of him there alone and practically
helpless. But Marthy must have her
tonight. Marthy was facing her bit
terest sorrow since Mine rvey died, and
Marthy was old. Ward. Billy Louise
reminded herself sternly, was not old,
and he was facing happiness-sO far
as he or anyone knew. She wanted
very much to be with Ward, but she
could not delude her conscience into
believing that he needed her more
than did Marthy.

AND NOW THEY ARE COOKING
TOBACCO TO MAKE 1T BETTER

For a good many years The American
Tobacco Company have been conducting
series of experiments having as their
object the improvement of smoking
tobaccos.
And it is interesting to know that one
of the greatest Of their discoveries was one
of the simplest, and that was, that cooking
or toasting tobacco improved it in every
way, just as cooking most foods improves
them.
They took real Burley tobacco, grown
In this country; toasted it as you would
toast bread; moistened it to replace the
natural moisture driven off by toasting;
made it into cigarettes, called them
LUCKY STRIKE, the toasted cigarette"
and offered them to the public.
Theresult has been the greatestdemand
ever created for any tobacco product in a
similar length of time.
The change produced by toasting is not
only most wholesome, but the flavor 10
greatly improved, just as cooking improves
meat for example.-Adv.
