Not pefenseless.

The tale of little George Washington
and the cherry tree is of more than
dubious authority; but a mother who
recently related 1t to her small son
learned that, If 1t is to be used for
the edification of young Americans 1t
Is better, at least, served plain, with
nc attempt at enhancement or empha-
sis. She had described young Georges
enthusiastic telling of the tree with his
new implement, and the fateful arrival
Of his father upon the scene. She pic.
tured Augustine Washington as an ell.
derby, stern and stately parent of the
old school, with cooked hat and cane.
She proceeded impressively:
@But George could not tell lie. he
told the truth, even though his father
stood with the cane In his handi"

WORTHY TO VEIL ROYALTY
Queen Of Siam the Possessor OF Prob
ably Most Magnificent Garment
in the World.

The queen of Siam owns a toilet
article which is altogether calculated
to fill the hearts of all other ladies
Of the kingdom with ardent desire and
envy. For the queen is the happy
possessor of veil capable of beau
tifying her face most wonderfully.
This veil is a delicate tissue Of the
finest threads, but woven so as to
have some resistance.
Part Of this three-meters-long veil
is intended to conceal the face, while
the remainder flows down over the fig.
ure and closely nestles to the body.
The veil, which falls over the back.
is completely sown over with diamond
dust, while the part in front is less
busted, so as not to impair the face
and the organs Of sense. The lowest
ends of the veil are covered with bril-
iiants.
The tissue of the veil is so prepared
as to cause changes in color when ex-
posed to the air. No sooner has the
wearer stepped into the street than
the veil assumes a delicate rosy hue,
which deepens and, as 1t were, be-
comes animate the longer it remains
In the open. When the queen returns
to her abode the hue passes away and
the veil turns pale and dead as be-
fore.
The veil has been credited with pos
sessing the most wonderful powers.
For a century 1t has been in the pos.
session of the royal house of Siam,
and although constantly used and ex-
posed to all kinds of influences of the
weather it has not lost anything Of
its texture and beauty.

NO LEAVE FOR SAILORS
OF NEUTRAL COUNTRIES

Because of clandestinely bringing
in and the taking out of the country
of letters and the desertion of sailors
from their ships, the immigration Blu
reau has been requested by the State
Department to prevent the going
for ashore of seamen from all neu-
trail vessels arriving at New York.
The matter became public when APP
plication was made by seaman on
board a Norwegian steamship, who
had taken out his first papers in the
United States and who desired to go
ashore to register in the draft. He
was informed that he had a valid ex-
cuse for not registering in the prohi-
bition against his leaving his vessel.

LABOR AND PRODUCTS.

Frank B. Anderson, the San Francisco banker
says:
"Wben Congress appropriated $4,000, 100000 |
for +be first wear of the war it. consciously or
unconscioHsly. appropriated the labor and SER
vices of all the people of the United States-not
$50 600, 600, O0O but raw material and the labor
TO turn that raw material into the finished prod
uct needed in the prosecution of the war.
.The production of the country before it
entered into the war was approximately S4o,-
600 900, OOO the consumption approximately
S35, 900 200, 900, the excess approximately S.
600 100000 Consequently the ability to make
good the appropriations of Congress requires in
creased production or decreased consumption, or
both, that would raise the surplus from the nor
NAL S., 900 900, 900 to $4,000, 100000.
1.-THE plans and activities of the administra-
ton will fail or be delayed to the extent that
the population fails to bring the surplus of pro-
duction over consumption to the basis demanded
by Congress; and neither Liberty Bond issues,
War Savings Stamps, nor taxation solve the
problem for the reason that money is of no avail
if the population consumes what the Govern
ment needs to carry on the war. We must teach
the people that every act and every expenditure
of each individual has good or bad effect on
the winning of the war; that to the extent that
each individual fails to deliver as full days
work as he is capable of he is working against
the Army in the field and aiding the Kaiser, and
Ito the extent that he fails to respond to the
Governments demand for conservation of those
things that are needed for the Army and Allies
he is giving aid and comfort to the enemy and
is creating the conditions and causing the delays
for which he is criticizing the administration.

is not in the hands of the comparatively few rich
men, but in the hands of the great mass of
workers.

WAR-YEAR REPORT

The government has closed it's books for the
fiscal year lust ended-the first full fiscal year in
the war.
In government financial history the year Will
go down as a period of expense hardly dreamed
of decade ago. More than $12,60O,oOO,OOo is
the actual outlay since July 1, 1917, to meet the
multitude of big bills up by the army, the
navy the ship-building programme airplane con-
struction. coast defense requirements, other
government activities and the needs of Americas
allies to finance loans for the purchase of war
materials in this country. In peace times the
government spent less than s1ooo0,oOo,ooo an
nualy ,.
With the addition of ST 200 100000 which the
government spent in the three months of war
preceding the fiscal year, the wars cost in money
to date has been S13, 800, 100000.
War activities are draining about $50,000o0o
a day from the nations treasury and in June the
4 running expenses were greater than before,
though loans to the allies dropped to less than
any money since April, 1917, when the United
States became a belligerent.
Expenditures for June about $780,
100000.
Owing to the big inflow of income and excess
profits taxes, the receipts for June eclipsed all
records From taxation and other minor sources
Of revenue, receipts expected to amount to
" more than s., $50 100000. Payments Liberty
Bonds and certificates of indebtedness have
yielded nearly $1,400,OOO,0OO.
Ordinary expenses for June amount to about
1,25s,0oO,ooo new high record and payments
to allies approximately $236,0O0,O00, less
than half the $500, 900, 900 which the treasury
usually has figured necessary to finance the
Filled purchases in the United States every
month. Use of ships to transport troops to
France, instead of for materials, is con-

KERENSKY COMES BACK

Alexander Kerensky, director of Russia for
short time, whose appearance before the Labor
Conference in London startled not ONLY the
British laboring men, but the public generally,
looks toward America as the goal of his journey.
He has stated that he hopes to be received here
as the spokesman of his country. He wants to
plead the cause of the newborn Russian democ-
racy before the tribunal of this republic
From England Kerensky will go to France and
it is expected that he will soon arrive in the
United States.
How Kerensky escaped from Russia and how
he was shielded by his comrades from the Boil
shevih would make stirring romance, and
doubtless some day will be told. Today this is
kept secret invioate
Kerensky's arrival, according to the London
newspapers, caused more excitement than any,
thing that has occurred in Europe since Dr. Cook
appeared in Copenhagen with equally startling
suddenness from out the Northern msts
No conjurer pulling white rabbit from a
silk hat ever startled an audience of widowed
children, more thoroughly than Arthur Hender-
son. labor leader, surprised the conference. when
he introduced Kerensky
kerensky told the labor delegates that the

would soon take part in the lists against the
