their babies kissed and one was
bomharded with embraces, hand
shakes. thanks and cheers.
Imagine the better part of one
hundred thousand people, mostly
women, all crowded into one or two
streets, all hysterical with joy and
all intent on expressing their graft
tude on being liberated.
What had bitten into the souls of
everybody was the deportations Of
1916. Mothers did not know where
their daughters had gone, nor what
had been their fate. To the very
last German exploitation went on In
lis usual manner. Commander Won
Grewitz requisitioned a thousand
shirts and thousand pair of trous-
ers on Tuesday.
Houses Stripped Of Metal
Except for a few quarters Of the
city. especially near the stations, on
the east side. of the town, one
would not know that Lille had been
within range of hostile guns. Win
dows along whole streets were as
clean and bright as in peace time.
The telephone exchange was one of
the exceptions. 1t had been blown
to pieces by the Germans. The en-
envy had tripped the houses Of all
metal, all pianos having lost their
metal parts and anything suggesting
brass was taken away.
What is said to be the supreme
feat of the war at Lille was the
successful concealment of cow for
four whole years. This cow is now
being decorated to meet the British
troops.
Menin as we'll as many other vii
lagos between that place and Rou-

Courtesy q Business Asset

Courtesy is the life of trade. To be
sure you must have the goods, but
courtesy helps to sell them. A certain
big establishment has a man whose
chief business Is to meet people and
make them feel Mt home. He has a
pleasant post short distance from
the door and It's his business to see
every one that comes In. He has q
handshake and a smile for everybody.
When people come In that do not seem
to know where they want to go he
talks with them and learns their needs
and sees that they get In touch with
the proper clerks. The crowd buys
there because 1t is made to feel that
the store Is interested in them. And
they pay less for the goods, too. be-
cause they buy In such large Quanti-
~ that the store can afford to sell at
lower rates and still make money.
That's the reason 1t sells more furnl-
ture. carpets and general furnishings
than all the other stores combined in
that town. Courtesy and service is the
watchword and they find there's money
In it--Pennsylvania Grit.

WORTHY TO VEIL ROYALTY
Queen Of Slam tho Possessor Of Prob
ably Most Magnificent Garment
In the World.

The queen Of Siam owns a toilet
article which Is altogether calculated
to all the hearts of all other ladies
Of the kingdom with ardent desire and
envy. For the queen IL the happy
possessor Of a veil capable Of beau
tifying her face most wonderfully.
This veil Is 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,
IL 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-
liants.
The tissue of the veil is 80 prepared
AZ to cause changes In color when ex-
posed to the mir. No sooner has the
wearer stepped into the street than
the veil assumes a delicate rosy hue,
which deepens and. MS It 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 1t has not lost anything Of
its texture and beauty.

Old Mileage IS Not Good.

Some people have overlooked the
fact that railroad mileage bought at
the old rate can no longer be used,
even by paying the difference. All
old mileage and unused tickets will
be redeemed by the railroads at the
same price paid for them.
Another rule now in force Is that
tickets must be purchased at all sta
tions where there Is ticket agent, or
pay extra fare If paid on train. This
extra fare used to be refunded on pre-
senation Of receipt, but 1t Is no longer
so. Railroad fare is three cents fiat

May Train Troops in u. 8. A.

Washington, June 20.-Congress
is to be asked by the War Department
for an appropriation to provide train
ing facilities in this country for other
than American troops.
The natural assumption is that
troops to be trained here would come
from one OF the nations of the West
ern Hemisphere who have Joined the
countries at war with Germany.
While no arrangements have yet
been discussed looking to that end,
the department feels that it would be
wise to have the funds on hand.
