REMaYINa THE spLpIER pEAp.

Whether or net any asfnite policy has been adented by this government Felatlye tp tAe bringing back of the bodies of those whe have died from enc cause or anether in Europe is un- eeFtalR. It was only recently that the statement was made that the gov frnn;ent would do everything possible tp aid in. the bringing te this coun- try the body af every soldier and aalleF. buried in EureRe, if such was ths desire of tRe relatives and such Ess possible. At that time it was nos estimated that the number of deed Npuld teach the large tatal that has been announced, and so far as known thess has been aa change of inten- tlens.
 There Is, however under considera- tien the idea of establishing ceme- ieriss in France like that at Arlington for the bringing together of the sol dler dead, the proner marking of each grave and the ereeting eR memorial shafts to those who gave up their lives, so that even these whose boi- ies have not been recovered will nor be forgetten.
 Sentiment will doubtless play an inn nortant part as te hew many of the bodles will be brought home. There will be g great many families who will not be satisfied unless the bodies are finally laid to rest in their home ceme- tery while there will be others whc will take the same attitude as Cela- Iel and Mrs. Roosevelt, who will mol ask to have the body of their sor Quentin brought back, believing. a, they say. that where the limb tali' there let it remain. For many it vii be possible to make pilgrimages ts such graves and see the final resting place but tp others thls will be i'm. possible for various reasons. It il probable however that whatever pol icy is decided upon and though man! will be brought home there will bi thousands who will forever sleep il | France.

pRenHa LAW ENFORCEMENT.

Constantly on the alert must the ap- thorlties be in bringing 10 justice those who persist in not only violating the law by offering for sale feodstuffs which are not fit to eat but in swind- ling the purchasers by false represen- tations. This has been revealed frcm tune to time by these who resort to the short measures and "ASedn scales, bY those who deal in goods which are not up to the standard required and by these who make practice Of studying the laws and cireumventins Hem far the very purpose of defeat ing the object for which they were ersated and to increase their profits
 There are also those who lose no occasion to take advantage of pre- rAillns conditions to jump the price whether it Is Justified or not by what they pay for the gopds at wfolesale. At the present time Philadelphia ls fngaged in rounding up many of these profltenrs and swindlers. Twenty one dealers were brought into court and fined pr held for trial for having sold cold storage and decompascd eggs for iiesn pHss' t9f l!aFlns spiI aFat lnEa' at the price of lamb and mut;en, fol selling cakes unfit fos consumption fer dIspensing soda containing fiith and selling butter ceptainipg an ex- cessiVe amount of water: These wers all schemes which were engaged 1T for the purpose not only ef swipdline the purchaser and enriehlng the deal, CT but where in several instances tht l:ealth of the buyer was endangered.
 Such punishment is oniy what ths situation calls for. It is necessary for the prorsr protectipn of the huyel and certainly a5 long as laws exis for the safeguarding of tue publi; they certainly should be enforced.

CERTRUDE'S SHOPPING

 The girl with the severe coiffure looked out at Gertrude and dropped a stitch.
 'No," she observed. "Gertrude's spending just as much as ever. That s her supreme talent, you know. One can't imagine her doing anything but spend. She's just doing it in a dif- ferent way. that's all. You see, she has always had more cash than she knew what to do with and so she felt it to be duty to buy some new thing to wear every time she went gut es- peciailv as she had such perfect taste. But lately she has got sort of tired of clothes and wished there was some thing else to shop fer.
 "One day last week she came oNfr and asked me to go shopping with her: She had just received her allowance and it was burning holes in her poek- cts. I went. l always like to go with Gertrude; it gives me such an opulent feeling to help her choose a $20 hat or something An this particular day she couldn't think of thing she really wanted, but was still yearntng to go through the motions of spend ing, if you know what I mean. sug- gested shoes so she bought some, and then we went to hotel and ST worth of lunch and then we happened to pass a man who was talking on a street corner about liberty bonds. Oi course, Gertrude's father had got her some and she bought one or two for herself. But this man was telling about how you could buy them on the fnstallment plan and never miss the money. Gertrude had never really heard about that before and il appealed to her immensely.
 "'Why' she said, it would be just exactly like shopping to have to pay dollar week for something wouldn't it? I never could save any money, but this way it wouldn't bt like saving. I believe I'll take ten a different banks and then I can come in every week and have a regular

 well you know Gertrude always does things as soon as she thinks of them, so we went around to all the banks and places we could find and before 3 o'clock she vas in pessessinn of ten $50 bonds to be paid for at s2 a week. I dare say she is going in town now to shop for them.
 Tt was only natural then, that she should begin to think of all the other ways in which she might shop for the . government as she put it. She de- eiaed 10 make it rule tp buy 9 var sayings stamp at least once a day. That would keen her suite busy on errands.
 its queer how ideas like that simply take possession of people. After Gertrude gat the notion that she was doing something worth while, with her love of spending, she was crazy to do more of it. She has been going around to all the old ladies who knit and offering to buy their wool for them. You know it's always Wor- riea her because she couldn't seem te knit decently herself. She really wants to be useful.
 @'Oh yes, and her clothes. Of course you can't imagine Gertrude not buy ing clothes more or less all the time but she has decided to adopt a neW style of dressing. so that she can wear l the same costume for ages without getting tired of it. She's going to be awfuliy artistic looking, you know wear those queer Russian blouses and lumpy beads and things that are SC ! unusual no one can really tell whether you are well dressed in them or not
 She thinks she'll save Q lot of money that way. I don't know, but, anyway
 she's busy shopping for somethine
