Buttons and the War.

Buttons are not generally regarded
as one of the great articles of com
MERGE, yet a report issued by the fed
eral tariff commission presents some
astonishing figures regarding the mag
nitude of the button industry and the
capital invested therein.
There are more than 500 button
manufacturing establishments in this
country, representing a capital of ap-
proximately S20,0OO,OOO and an annual
payroll of $S,OOO,OOO. The annual
value of the products is more than
$2O,OOO,0O0. New York has almost half
the factories, but the middle West sup
plies most of the fresh-water pearl.
The war has put up the price of but.
tons, owing to the advance in the cost
of metals used in button manufacture,
and the increased price of cellulOid
sheets and all subsidiary raw materi-
ais, such as dyes, chalk, acids and can
vas. 1t is interesting to learn that the
war has stimulated the business In
this country and has led to the manu-
facture of glass buttons, which former.
~ were imported-another instance q
beating Germany at its W game.

Immensely Better Roads.

We cannot wait. Food and sup
plies are dependent on free and easy
transportation. The task car not be
put off. The money and materials
are available. The road builders say
they can get the labor, and without
robbing the farmer of help. Prison
labor is being used successfully in a
dozen states. Why not let the prls-
oner help win the wal in this way?
We must build immensely better
roads than we ever built before.
When fancy roads, costing thirty
thousand dollars a mile, are knocked
full Of holes in a few months of war,
there a be no argument to the con-
trary. The Romans and, later, the
Europeans, built with solid masonry
four feet deep. There was a heavy
initial investment, but those roads
have stood the test of two thousand
years. For twenty thousand dollars
a mile we can build roads Of concrete
concrete with brick that give
promise to last many years, if we
build them heavy enough. We have
two and a quarter million miles of
highway that must be i'm
proved before we can say that we
have a highway system. What if it
does cost billions to make them right?
We must tackle the job of highway
building in its highest terms if we
are going to do it thoroughly.
The era Of highway building has
been forced upon US by the war. We
should face the task and go to it just

She Saves Fuel

A little old woman, wearing a wool.
en- dress, a black silk jacket and a
little round hat, entered a surface car
at a transfer station yesterday, her
arms so filled with a great bundle of
rumpled newspapers that she could
barely keep her balance.
"We've got to conserve" she said
cheerfully to another woman who held
a seat for her, IS she tumbled into q
seat, making a dive at the same time
for an evening paper that some one
had left lying there. "Is this yours!
No? Well. the government says we've
got to save paper" she continued, as
she added this last one to her already
big package; "and I'll tell you it saves
a lot of wood when I make my coffee
in the morning."-New York Times.

Simultaneously

A government that allows on
ly one-half of it's citizens to
vote is only half democratic. The
. other half, the voting class, is
autocratic. Our army of mil
lions is crossing the ocean to
throttle autocracy, while at home
we have many millions who are
asking the right to take part in
governmental affairs. Our wo-
men are taking the places of
men in all departments of labor
and service, why should they be
deprived of the franchise? Be
a manly man and give to her,
who shares with you all the
struggles of life, what justice
entities her to and should be be-
on her on November 9Th.
Give her the right of franchise
by States, as we men have it,
or it will be granted her by the
National Government.
"The hand that rocks the
cradle is the hand that rules
the world" The man who
now denies it should have
his ear-lock pulled.

the way. the machine had run them
down.
At the time Of the collision a woman
thought to be a school teacher was il
the vicinity and as far as is known she
was the only witness to the affair.
The police were notified and In the
mainline, the Phillips child was
rushed to the Homeopathic Hospital in
another automobile. Physicians there
found that the child's left leg had been
fractured and that he was hurt inter-
nally. In fact his condition was such
that IL was impossible to set the broken
limb until today. The jackson child
also was removed to the Delaware Hos
pital in an automobile that was pass

This child's right arm was broken
and he was otherwise injured.
As soon as the account OF the run

at the police station, Chief of Police
Black issued orders to the district men
to endeavor to locate the car and the
owner. So far no trace Of the machine
has been found, however.

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless

II you want plenty Of thick. beau
tiful. glossy. silky hair. do by all means
get rid Of dandruff. for 1t will starve your
hair and ruin it II you don't.
II doesn't do much good to try to brush
or wash it out. The only sure way TO get
rid Of dandruff is TO dissolve il, then you
destroy ii entirely. To do this, get about
four ounces Of ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it at night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub 1t in gently with
the finger tips.
By morning. most IL not all, of your
dandruff will be gone. and three or -four
more applications will completely dissolve
and entirely destroy every single sign and
trace Of it.
You viii find, too. that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop, and your
hair will look and feel a hundred timer
better. You can get liquid aryon at am
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and foui
ounces is all you will, need. no matter
how much dandruff you have. This simple
