Russia and the United States.

The old autocratie government of Russia was always particularly friend ly to the United States. During the Revolutionary war Russia offered to mediate for peace and her offer was accepted by the United States but de- clined by Great Britain. Russia was one of the first governments to recog
 niZe the independence of the United States and continued to show her good will by making treaties of amity and commerce with the United States. Sev- eral of our early presidents in their messages referred to "the continued friendship of Russia" In 1923. Rus sia proposed friendly adjustment through diplomatic channels of the boundary line between American and Russian possessions in the Northwest and President Monroe authorized the United States minister to Russia to at- tend to the matter. In doing so he said: "The government of the United States has been desirous by this friend ly proceeding to manifest the great value which they have invariably at- tached to the friendship of Russia and their solicitude to cultivate the best understanding with that government"

GLASS STAINED BY X-RAYS
Experiments Have Shown These Pro- duce the Same Effect as the
 Light of the Sun.

It is we'll known that glass exposed for long to sunlight acquires a violet tint. In very old houses the windows facing south are often distinctly vio- let. Experiments recently made in the laboratories of the General Electric company at Schenectady with X-rays prove that these can be used to dye glass in many colors, principally m amethystine violet and an amber yell low, but also green and bright yellow.
 These colors. according to Mir. Ro- senthal, who conducted the eXperi- ments, are due to notifications of the physical structure of the glass and not to chemical alterations. The color can be made to penetrate to any desired depth, from mere surface tint to complete coloration of the entire sub stance. And the same method can be applied to tinting porcelain, enamel and precious stones.
 An interesting and important fact about this glass that has been colored by long exposure to X-rays is that 1t becomes impervious to the radiatlons that have transformed It. Thus 1t can be used as a protection against the glare of the sun or the snow and against the X-rays themselves.

ALL HAVE THEIR UNDER-DOGS
Good Reasons Why Peoples Sympa. thies Are With the Fellow Who
 Is Temporarily Down.

Our sympathies naturally travel the in ourselves, we feel in others. We ap- plaud the under-dog, because we so often have been the under-dos. We like to lift the other fellow up when he Is down, because we also have been down. Sympathy starts at h9me-or else it isn't sympathy.
 Your periodic moods of failure and disappointment are your under-dogs.
 So, instead of walking past these under-dogs of yours and casting no sympathy their way, pause to give them your heart and your hope, and soon the picture and fact will be your over-dogs-your victories and your genuine achievements.
 No under-dogs can possibly appeal in importance to the underdogs of your daily experience.
 Perhaps you will applaud alone the under-dogs of your personal glooms and shadows, but what of it? As Low ell says: "Dally, with souls that eringe and plot, we Sinais climb and know it not What difference, what odds, so long as over your manhood bend the skies?'
 Courageously cheer the under-dogs of your experiences and stay proudly by them until their fight becomes a fac. tor of your kingship.-George Matthew Adams, in Good Housekeeping.

WINNING THE DERUTANTE's SMILE.

It is silk and cotton for summer frocks, and here are two of them de- signed for the young girl, that will make her more than glad that she is alive In silk and cotton summer. All the pretty, old-time gingham pat terms Nave been interpreted in taffeta and voile and their inventors of long ago would be delighted with their ele- gance and daintiness in these fine grained fabrics. Some of the new frocks in plaid or crossbar taffeta go to the length of copying apron styles
 The pretty frock of cOrn-colored, crossbar taffeta shown at the left of the picture has the plainest and sim plest of pleasant waists, made of plain corn-colored taffeta, with sleeves of georgette crepe. It has patch pockets ruffled across the top, that deign to remind us of the apron pockets, and an ingenious collar made just to suit the froek. This little model Is satis- fled with plain, straight and narrow skirt, that turns neither to the right nor to the left, but pursues it's way undlsturbed by ruff1e or tuck, to the ankles .of its wearers. It proclaims the straight silhouette and leaves us guessing as to just where 1t fastens.
 A pretty dress at the right is made of fine voile over a slip of silk. The skirt of vdile is gathered at the waist line so that 1t has considerable full ness, but 1t Is not draped. Just at the

SEES B|G CHANGE:
 IN SHORT TIME
Arkansas Blacksmith Claims Dr. gatone Relieved MaIariaI Trou- bles He Had Suffered
 With for Years.

Arkansas citizens of the highest hon. esty and integrity, who have been ben effted by Orgatone are now testifying daily to the merits of the triumph preparation. MT. J. J. Green, proml- nent Little Rock blacksmith, has just said:
 II was troubled with stomach and liver trouble so badly that I was in misery night and day. I suffered with dull pains in the pit of my stomach and in the region of my kidneys, and what little I did eat done me scarcely any good. My condition was gradually getting worse and I was very much worried.
 Friends spoke to me many times about Orgatone, and advised me to try it for my troubles. I finally made up my mind to try few bottles and after the first bottle had been taken I could see big change in my condition. My stomach and kidneys do not trouble me at all now and 1 have better appe- tite than I have enjoyed in years. l can honestly recommend Orgatone for anyone who suffers like I did"

mented by the extra length of the skirt which reaches almost to the instep.
 Now is the time to dispose of all lingerie matters, simple or otherwise; ; for at this season of the year mer- chants make a concerted effort to show and sell new undergarments and the materials for making them. Pet ticoats and camisoles and their next of kin, princess slips, are the subjects under discussion here.
 Shadow lace proves the best of as- sets when the time comes to design camisoles It Is wide enough to make the body of the camisole and the point ed or scaIloped edge provides for graceful shape. Camisoles are made of 1t by adding band of ribbon, or wide beading to the straight edge for the waistline, and banding the lace with narrow ribbon stitched on. Where the lace has large points. two of them at the front and two at the back form "V"-shaped lines here and under the arms, that are graceful. Ribbons, stitch ed to these scallops or points are ex- tended into shoulder straps.
 In princess slips the bodice is often cut in the shape described above and finished with narrow hem. Below the hem valenciennes lace insertion Is let In. Narrow skirts set onto the bodice with a narrow belt have a series of tucks edged with val lace running about them. They are usually made of

Out of His Ranqe.

A young man stepped into sporting goods store in Indianapolis recently and asked to see some guns. His remarks indicated that he was a sportsman of a decidedly amateurish sort.
 The obliging salesman brought forth all manner and varieties of weapons, from q 22-caliber rifle to latest model pump" gun, but nothing brought any response of satisfaction into the young fellows face. Finally the salesman handed him high-power rifle, used for big game, with the remork, "This beautiful little gun, sir, is just what you want, I believe. It kills at three thousand yards"
 The young man shook his head more in doubt than ever. "No," he said, "I am afraid couldn't use 1t at all. You see. have to get closer than that."- Indianapolis News.

How Would You Tie a CameI7

Because of its peculiar swaying mo- tion in walking the camel has been called the ship of the desert" This title may also have some reference to the extreme stupidity and passivity of the animal. which submits to great loads, which it will often carry for days at time without stopping for food or drink, with no more urging than a ship would require from the hands of its pilot. says the Popular Science Monthly. The manner in which the drivers hobble the camels when they stop for a rest Is interesting. They do not depend upon stakes driven in the deep, yielding sand but simply double back and tie one of the fore legs of the animal. so that it can lie down or rise up. but cannot move from the spot

This is no fish" story as the term Is usually referred to. but 1t Is a story about fish. Jim Foster. student of fish affairs, vouches for it's authenticity.
 Jim has a collection of big live fish in a small aquarium in a downtown restaurant and for 12 hours every night he watches them perform.
 '"The fish are very affectionate," de- clared the fish student. "They are good-tempered and kind toward one an- other. See those two largest fish !? They are married I guess. or else in love with each other. They always kiss each other good night and nibble affectionately at each others mouths.
