Always think of RUBEL'S when you
think Of anything to wear.
We always keep complete stock, buy
our needs months in advance, thereby
enabling us to give you more for your
money.
Another reason why we can sell you the
same goods for less money, is that we
do wholesale Dry Goods and Shoe
business, buying in much larger quanti-
ties than other merchants, and of course
buying i'm larger quantities and direct
from the mills, we save the middle-man's
commission.
So remember when needing anything in
Dry Goods or shoes, call on us first,
and save few cents on every dollar

HUSBAND CATCHING
BY FAT WOMEN

Many a too plump lady Is groan-
ing in spirit. at this moment, as she
lOlls back with a lollipop between
her finger and thumb. at the thought
of her matrimonial chances.
She tells herself she can never
give up her lolling and her loIlipops
and go in for exercising and dieting
instead. Not even for a husband.
Yet one glance over her bullying
breasts, at her equally welI-adyer-
tised hips. tells her all hope is vain
unless she reduces.
Now, such girls are simply behind
the times or they would not worry
about their reducing. They would
reduce-and do it without disturb
ance Of their appetite for candy or
luxurious ease. All that is needed
to take off twelve to sixteen ounces
day, and rapidly reduce the hips,
chin. abdomen, etc. (where fat is
most objectionable). is one pleasant

. Letter to the Editor.

To the Editor of The Herald: Sir
I respectfully request brief space
In your columns to express vigorously
my dissent from certain assertions
contained in an article in the WASH
lngton Post Of March 10. under the
signature "Ryley Grannon." This
gentleman alleges that:
"Between thirty and forty priests
who aided the enemy in spreading
the propaganda of mutual laying
down of arms we're executed. Twen-
ty-six Of Cadorna's generals were
court-martiaied and shot This in
formation Is given me by an Italian
officer who obtained 1t at the front"
No wide notice, OF course, will be
taken OF these two startling allega-
tons by persons well-informed as to
the situation in Italy, and aware
of the hysterical lack Of Judgment
or critical ability among certain ru-
mor-mongers recently posing among
us, and imposing on newspaper edi-
tors, as publicists and diplomatic ex-
perts. But there will be persons like
ly to be nisled. perhaps, because
of the prominent place given such
statements in an important metro
politan newspaper. For that reason,
1 feel impelled to challenge the
writer to produce his Italian off,
Ger who obtained the information
(sicD lat the front" II he declines
to do we shall have to apply the
ancient but useful rule Of argumenta-
tation, that an assertion gratuitously
made may be quite as gratuitously
denied. Only on the German or Aus
trian front could the soi-disant Off
GER have acquired the astonishing
information" that twenty-six Ital-
ian generals had been courtmartiaIed
and shot.
Mr.. Grannon's informant has a poor
opinion Of that. publicist's knowledge
Of human nature. Italian or other
wise. or his acquaintance with the
number OF general officers in the
Italian army, to tell him in all So
berness that such wholesale treason
could have existed, or IL existing in
such degree. could have failed to sue
ceed
When Mr. GTannon's authority shall
have been disclosed. is it asking too
much that he identify for us his
thirty or forty priests executed" for
peace propaganda? Many Italian
priests in military service are known
to the writer. and he is anxious to
learn whether any of them has thus
fallen from his duty and paid the
penalty.
Seriously speaking, how can any
one have the face to write such nom
sense when on December 30. in the
chamber OF deputies. Prime minister
Orlando himself declared attacks
made on the Italian clergy to be
wholly unjustified by their conduct
in the war. and due to partisan pre-
judice? Signor Nitti. and even Err
nesto Nathan. have paid tribute to
the attitude OF the Italian clergy in
the war. Mr.. MarConi, when recently
interviewed by the New York Times.
stated that the clergy of Italy. as
whole. had given praiseworthy evil
dence OF their national loyalty.
1t is idle to cite further evidence
in this regard: one can only wonder
apropos of Mr. Grannon's whole at
titude. why international gossips
would not do well to wait for the
report of the mixed commission ap-
pointed to investigate the Italian mil
itary disaster of October before pre-
suming to explain it.
Respectfully.

Saturday, March Is. lis.

This is a threatening day, according
to the reading of the stars. for the
Sun. Neptune, Mercury, Saturn and
Venus are all in evil place. Late at
night Jupiter is friendly.
The rule appears to forecast a period
of extreme depression of spirit among
persons in the Sun, or, in other words.
those who direct military, naval and
State affairs.
Warning Is given against the voic-
ing OF fear in any form, as during the
sway of planets that produce despon-
dency any tendency to recognize dis
couraging influences rs exceedingly
dangerous to public as well as TO pri-
yate welfare.
On this day there is a sinister sign
for shipping and travel on the ocean.
For the remainder OF the month
water will be a menace in storm and
flood as well as for transportation.
Mercury is In a place presaging much
Misrepresentation through writings.
This may, indicate not only the dis
semination OF the enen1y's propaganda,
but the falsifying Of reports.
This is not a lucky day for signing
leases or contracts, the latter being
subject to the most unfavorable in
fiuences.
Scandals arising in discoveries made
OF contracts signed year ago this
month will be of national concern.
1t is prOphesied
This is not an auspicious day for
weddings or for any love affairs.
Milliners, modistes and all who sell
luxuries or ornaments for women are
under a threatening rule OF the stars.
Saturn again betokens deaths among
distinguished persons who have pass
ed middle age and presages the loss
of an American OF worldwide fame.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury OF an active and fortunate
year in business affairs. but they
should guard against illnesses in the
family.
Children born on this day are like
ly to be gifted. energetic and sue

Then my thoughts went back 10 the
unhappiness that endured over
money when Dick and l were first
