pany of New York.
The plans laid by Italy and Spain to
enlarge their respective shares of
world business after the war are of
particular interest to American bust
ness men. There is every indication
that Industrial and commercial con-
dItions In the United States after the
war viii be affected to a remarkable
degree by the measures which Italy
Is developing to re-establish herself on
a peace basis.
While for many years before the
war Germany and Austria dominated
the foreign trade OF Italy. the latter
country has long been one of our best
customers. In 1913 Italy imported
more raw materials and foodstufrs
from America than from Germany and
Austria together. but she procured her
partly finished and finished products
10 a large extent from her Teutonic
neighbors. italian exports also went
mostly TO these countries. Exchanges
with Germany in that year totaled
$1S3, ST., o5S; with Austria. S93, 4o4. Asst ::
with England. $161. 500, 440; with
France, 500. 740.416. and with America,

These losses cannot be replaced

Cotton Crop Price Will Not Be Fixed.

I am firmly of the opinion that no

time"
From other sources it was learned
that if a price is fixed it will be en-
tirely satisfactory to the growers,
possibly 35 cents a pound. The whole
matter from present indications may
be settled within the next few days in
order that the cotton market may not
be further affected.

FRENCH GIRLS ADVISED.
To Get American Husbands and Keep
Them i'm France.

Let me- give you a little advice,
says a writer in the Intranssigeant,
addressing himself to the maidens
of France. There are many Ameri-
cans in France and you know very
well how charming they find YOU.
They find our women more disposed
to be fellow workers with them than
those of other countries, they appre-
ciate you highly, but my dear little
French girls, you must not be frivo-
lous. Americans are grown up chill
dren, somewhate ingenious, a trife
puritan, and quite ready to marry
you, and an American husband and
a French wife make an excellent
married couple. So do not waste
the chance. of that marked purity
which is so seldom found among
the men of ancient Europe"
Another writer in the Petit Jour-
nal, welcomes the reports that Ameri-
can-French marriages are becoming
very common, as excellent from the
idyllic and sentimental point of view
also for the fusion of the two races,
but express some anxiety as to it's
effect on the population Of France.
He fears that when the war is over
the American husbands will carry
away their French wives across the
Atlantic and France will lose that
many households, a loss that the
country is in 20 condition to stand.
The writer quotes a letter that he
has received from a French girl, en-
gagged to an American, in which q
says that she laid down no con
ditions in accepting the proposal but
had made her fiance understand that
after the war there would be work
for every one in France, and so he
had promised to remain in France
and if children came they should be
French citizens.
There's a good example," COM
ments the article. Let all French
girls follow it. America will not be
perceptibly poorer and France will
be enriched, It is N more kind act
that we can beg from our allies and
one they are not likely to refuse"

Wilson's Five Principles of Peace.

aFirst, the impartial justice meted
out must involve no discrimination
between those to whom we wish to be
just and those to whom we do not
wish to be just. It must be a justice
that plays no favorites, and knows
no standard. but the equal rights of
the several peoples concerned.
Second, no special or separate in
terest of any single nation or any
a9Toup of nations can be made the
sis of any part of the settlement
fhich is not consistent with the COM
mon interests of all.
Third, there can be no league or
alliance or special covenants and I'M
derstandings within the general and
common family of the league of ma
lions.
Fourth, and more specifically,
there can be no special, selfish eco
nomic combinations within this
league and no employment of any
form of economic penalty by exclu-
sion from the markets of the world
may be vested in the league of ma
lions itself as a means of discipline
and control. y
Fifth, all International agree
ments and treaties of every kind must
be made known in their entirety to
the rest of the world"

Dear Aunt Molly:

Dear Aunt Molly:
Since l hear that you can answer

would help me with this one.
When, where and why was Methus-
elah born; and when, where and
under what conditions did he die?
Richard A. Thornburg.
Dear Dicly:
Indeed | shall help you out, for
although my own abstruse research
into paleontology, entomology and
astrological ontogony fails to sup
ply the information you desire, l
still have an unfailing sorceress
known as Ina Gination, and she
supplied me with the following
data:
According to her mystic records,
Methuselah was born the seventh
Wednesday after the seventh Mon
day following the seventh pascal
phase of the new moon In the sew
enth century of the seventy-seventh
hundred million years following the
final recession of the last glacial
drift. His birthplace, as nearly as
she could locate it, was g So "a"
north latitude; go 32' 81" east
longitude. And the cause of great
Methuselah entering this vale Of
tears and gum-chewing school boys
was that all men of all nations
might marvel that he endured this
world so long.
AS to his death, the famous sor-
ceress Is mystic, quite mystic. II
see dark clouds gathering as for a
mighty food" she breathes. II see
years, many years, bending the
shoulders Of an old, old man under
their weight. Nine hundred years,
with nine and sixty more, are adj
ded to his never equaled burden,
and in the shadowy twilight of a
life's dim close, see the old man
tottering, failing, vanishing. He is
gone! Methuselah, great Methuse-
lab, is no more"
Does that suit you, Dick?

Dear Jimmie: I believe not.
Since careful study under the mi

scientists are led to believe that
they simply crawled over the top
of famous pit which is rather
mild sub-station to Germany proper.
No doubt. had the potatoe bugs
come from Hun-land itself, they
would be equipped both with wings
and fms, so that they not only
could descend on our potato plants
from the air, but spring from
streams and water spouts as well.
