z IFE'S dull and
prosaic, or not,
Just as you choose

just as you cnoOSe
to make it.
Lady Henry Somer-
set, the great English
temperance worker,
once invited a party Of
women from London's
dreariest slums t o
spend a day among
birds and flowers and
turf and trees on her
magnificent coun try
estate. On taking a
polite leave of her at
"the end of a perfect
day." one of the women
thanked her for her
hospitality, adding,
however, with a COM
passionate e glance
around:-
"You must get so
lonesome here l suppose
you are glad to see
anyone!"
Just a pair of stock
ings sounds like a COM
monplace inspiration
for a days shopping,
but when a stocking is
needed, what else will
take its placer
Fitting out the bot
tom of the family
trunk with the family's
Summer underwear is
not as thrilling as buy
ing a trousseau, but it's
every whit as necessary.
XXTE think that big
wv corner Of t h e
Store located at Mar
ket and Juniper Streets
on the First Floor,
which is devoted to the
selling of knit under
wear and hosiery, is
not only a mighty big
place, but a mighty
bright and busy place,
which has an interest
ing service to per-
form
No less than that of
keeping folks cool in
Summer as underwear
can make them, and
again, warm in Winter
as underwear can make
them, and that's very
cool and very warm in
deed.
Come to think of it,
there's nothing very
prosy in the sense of
freedom, delight and
comfort with which a
tree peels off its old
bark in Summer and
clothes itself in its new
Summer dressl
And since a human
being is surely as good
as a tree, something of
the same comfort and
pleasure is represented
by these heaps Of soft,
snowy, filmy under
wear-some the dainti-
est of silk, others the
lightest of cotton It's
sues - the gossamer
product of a thousand
thousand busy knit
ting-machines, whose
flashing. clicking need
les were briskly work
ing for your Summer

snow still covered the
frost-bitten earth.

A CORNER full of
L NECESSARY things,
this one on the First

That's why you'll

to see soldiers begging for food Ev-
erybody is convinced that the expect
ed food relief from Ukraine is a
mirage "Only another Prussian
swindle," they say.
The three worst months-June,
July and August-are yet to come.
Last year there was almost nothing
to eat in these months but cucumbers
and fruit. Typhus and dysentry be-
came epidemic. The people are
shuddering at the prospects of these
three months now.
AS far as they dare the people con-
tinue to jeer at the talk of smash
ing the British and French and at
the submarine campaign The only
result of which they see is to add
America to their enemies. Every
one made fun of President Wilson at
first as pedant. the correspondent
adds, but the people are now chang
ing their tone and are afraid that
America is in earnest.

so low that the government is fear
full of bolshevik movements.
Among the incidents giving sup
port of the story of terrible want, is
the case of two prisoners of war en-
ployed at the gas works in Vienna,
who, he declares, were murdered by
fellow workers, who ate part of their
bodies. The Arbeiter Zeitung of vi
emma demanded an investigation and
the entire issue was confiscated in
consequence. The affair was refer
red to parliament but was hushed up
in the Vienna press. The narrator
said he and his family had lived for
weeks almost entirely on mushrooms
grown in forest outside the town
in which he dwelt.
People often faint in the streets
from hunger. he continued. THE
health of many is such that they can
hardly stand, to say nothing of work.

day. Even the soldiers do not have
sufficient food. They are not only
