YEARS BRING ADDED CHARM
Most Attractive of American Women,
1t Is Declared, Are Those Who
Have Passed First Youth.

There are many people who hold
that the most interesting and attlac-
tive of all American women is the
woman who has passed her first youth.
The years have brought much more
to this woman than they have taken
from her, says Vogue. She has ac-
quired mental and physical poise, a
knowledge of how to deal with the
world, charm-oh, any amount OF
charm-and an ability to bring out
her good points and to conceal her
deficiencies.
She is delightful to meet and charm
ing to look upon, and she dresses with
a subtlety and skill that is well worth
careful study. In the small arts OF
dress, which are so important in their
significance, she is past mistress. Her
clothes are designed with a sure
knowledge of line, and the details of
her toilette are interesting subjects
to consider. Her hats are always be-
coming chick, and worn in the most
effective manner. In the daytime she
is smartly yelled, and at night she is
perfectly coiffed. Her jewels are not
merely ornaments; they are the one
thing needed to complete her costume;
they emphasize a contour or conceal
a line, or bring out the delicate tones
of the skin or the gloSsineSs of the
hair.

THE ONE WAY OUT.

There can be no doubt that we are in
want and are going to be in greater want.
Our Allies must be in deep and bitter
want The world for three years has
been destroying instead of saving. 1t
has been and is crazy, and the result is
before us with worse to come.
But why should this ptiful condition
make ANYBODY think that Germany, the
cause of all the hellish turmoil is flour
ishing? Stop and think moment. She
is lined up against almost all the rest of
the world. The seas are open to the AL
lies, except for the submarines, and for
the Germans there is not ship at sea.
All that mighty fleet is bottled up or
busy for the Allies.
Just ask yourself whether you would
rather have your country in the position
of Germany or in that of the United
States or any other of the Allies. The
worse our condition, still worse must be
that of Germany. 1t is question of en-
durance, and it stands to reason that
those countries can stand out longest
that have the greatest resources and the
greatest opportunities of exchange OF
supplies. Courant.

Does it Pay to Grow Grain?

1--WE have been doing more of manu-
featuring business than real farming, de-
pending as we have upon the West for
our grain feeds. So long as western
feeds remained cheap enough, this sys-
tenn was all right; but it lacked the most
fundamental basis of permanence; that
is, an adequate area of fertile soil, and
now that western feeds are no longer
cheap, readjustment of the business Is
inevitable.
1.-THE situation isn't as bad as if New
England farmers couldn't grow grain
They can when the price warrants it.
Massachusetts,for example, used to grow,
back in 1845, 10000 acres of corn as com
pared with the present $4,000, and 1000
acres of rye as compared with the pres
ent 5000. 1t is all a matter of whether
it pays or not. If one cannot afford to
buy grain doesn't it follow that one can
afford to grow it, assuming that one has
the necessary land7" - New England

Inefhciency Incarnate.

At recent session of the Senate Mill
tary Committee, General Crozier, chief
of Ordnance in the United States Army,
said that in the various arsenals of the
United States there are, at the present
moment, more than 1000 machine guns
which are available for the training of
troops.
Now for the other side of this machine
gun proposition.
Senator Lewis of Illinois recently made
visit to the Illinois division which is
stationed at Houston. He inquired into
its condition and equipment. lie was in
formed, among other things, that the
division has only one rusty machine gun
that can be used for training purposes,
and that this gun has been trained with"
so extensively that the threads and bear
ings have been worn smooth, and the gun
will no longer hang together. There
should be sixteen machine guns for every
machine gun company, and this entire
division has but one-and that one is
worthless.
The question now arises why, if the
United States has more than 1000 ma
chine guns stored ''for training purposes"
in the name of common sense it does not
turn few of them loose where the troops
can become familiar with them?
Seven thousand guns held up and a
full division of the Army fitted out with
only one rusty gun that can no longer
hang together!
There is fine situation, and the worst
of it is that it is situation for which
some fool in the Ordnance Department of
the United States Army, or in the War
Department itself, is directly responsible.
In heavens name, how much longer are
men of the Army to be subjected to such
idiotic deprivations as this?
The thing is worse than idiotic. The
men who are responsible for the lack of
machine guns in the hands of the troops
which need them so badly for training
purposes are directly interfering with the
efficiency OF the army.
There is absolutely no excuse that can
be offered for things of this kind. They
are the results of stupid inefficiency of
the worst type, and whoever is respon-
sible for them should be court-martialed
and thrown out of the Army-if he hap
pens to belong to the Army-or dismissed
from office in disgrace if he happens to
be civilian.
The men of the Army are trying to do
their best to serve the country. The peo-
pie are trying to do their best to aid the
Army and the country. 1t is disgraceful
that the efforts of the men of the Army
and those of the people should be multi
fled by such inflamed inefficiency as has
been shown in this one matter of ma
chine guns. from the San Antonio,

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18. A price of
$3.50 ton, f. o. b. seaboard for the
nitrate for fertilizer which the depart
mert of agriculture has purchased in
Chile for sale to American farmers at
cost was announced today by Secretary
Houston. The farmers must pay the
freight charges from ports and the State
tag fees, and payments must be in cash.
Ships carrying the nitrate will be direct
ed to the most convenient ports, the Sec
rotary said, and the nitrate will be handl-
ed at seaboard by representatives who
will serve without compensation. In the
farming districts county agents assisted
by local business men chosen by them
will handle the shipments, and in coun-
tries where there are no agents COM
mittee of three or more local business
men will be appointed Farmers are re-
quired to file their applications with the
agents or committees not later than Feb
ruary 4th. At the same time they must
deposit the money covering the cost of
the nitrate they wish with the local bank
association or individual to be designated
by the department.,

NO MORE CATARRH
A Guaranteed Treatment That Has Stood

Catarrh cures come and catarrh cures

and abolish its disgusting symptoms
wherever civilization exists.
Each year the already enormous sales
of this really scientific treatment for ca
tarrh grow greater, and the present year
should show all records broken.
If you breathe Hyomei daily as direct
ed it will end your catarrh, or it won't
cost you a cent.
If you have hard rubber Hyomei in
haler somewhere around the house, get it
out and start it at once to forever rid
yourself of catarrh.
A. A. Howes & Co., or any other good
druggist, will sell you bottle of Hyomei
Qiquid, start to breathe it and notice
how quickly it clears out the air passages
and makes the entire head feel fine.
Hyomei used regularly will end catarrh,
coughs, colds, bronchitis or asthma. A
complete outfit, including a hard rubber
pocket inhaler and bottle of Hyomei,
costs but little. No stomach dosing; just
breathe it. 1t kills the germs, soothes

That Jap Naval Station.

Newspaper readers with long memories
may recall a certain disquieting rumor
that kept floating around two or three
years ago, to the effect that the Japanese
had established naval base in Southern
California, and were prepared to land an
expedition in Mexico to help the Mexi-
cans fight the United States. The gov
eminent investigated, and reported that
there was no ground whatever for the
rumor.
Well, the source of that particular lie
has just been revealed. The German
gunboat Geier, in November, 1914. took
refuge under the American flag in Homo
lulu, fleeing from a japanese cruiser. The
Geier was interned in due form. The
officers were trusted as gentlemen. And
this is what they did:
They rugged up powerful wireless out
fit on their ship and used it to make
flage their operations they always gave
band concerts to drown the crickle while
they were using it. They relayed mes
sages for Ambassador Bernstorff, Won
Papen and Boy-Ed from Washington to
German agents at Manila, Hongkong,
Shanghai, etc. Thus they operated as a
branch of the great German system of
intrigue and propaganda. And while
they were not working on anything else,
they amused themselves by sending out
ingenious lies of their own, to embroil
the United States and Canada The jap
anese naval base yarn was one of their
pleasant fancies. Another was the story
that Germans in this country were or
ganizing a military expedition to attack
Canada. Bangor News.
