the fire protection measures in neither
national. state nor private forests are
sufficient to properly protect them.
Get together, then. on a national,
state and private forest fire protection
program. 1t is the need Of the hour,
and when this has been done the first
step toward mutually satisfactory
national forest policy will have been
made. Other features of this policy
are certain to follow in due course.
1T Is time the people were awake
to this question. The forests OF
France saved her and civilization, for
her forests held back the Hun until
America could get over there and de.
liver the knockout blow. 1t may be
that our own forests wiz be called
upon some day to perform a like
service for u.s.

Solve Your Problem This Way

When one of the progressive mer-
chants makes up his mind that he Is
going to secure women to work in his
store, no matter il there Is a real
shortage Of that sort of labor, he de-
vises some scheme of inducing women
who have hitherto never worked at
that sort OF work to give up their
present work or brand Of idleness and
take up the kind of work that he
wants done. He makes 1t appeal to
that kind Of woman-the kind that
had never worked in n store before.
and having induced them to come to
work for him he keeps them by maxi
ing the work appeal to them. Making
little changes here and there, little
bats as it were, to keep them nib
bling. He camoufages the parts that
might repel them. He assures them
that they are having a valuable train
ing. as indeed they are. that they
are really doing good by relieving the
shortage Of labor--and they really
are doing that, too.
Now when you are really up against
1t. at the turn of the road where you
must decide between breaking up
housekeeping, as the saying is, or
going under with the breakers Of too
much housework to do. try the plan
Of the progressive merchant. You
have tried every agency in town. You
have advertised in a half dozen papers.
You have asked all your friends
maids If they had friends--yes. you
have been known to have offered
temptations in the way of higher
wages to your neighbors' maids. And
still you are maidless.
Well, why not try to get the woman
who has never done that sort of thing
before, tho woman who never would
think Of doing it If you didn't camou-
flage the work a little or offer induce
ments or keep little baits around to
make her keep on nibbling?
There are a lot of women who have
more spare time than they have spare
dollars--women who are not trained to
do anything outside the zone Of house,
work. Give up the idea that the
woman who helps you is to be your
servant. That is one step toward get
ting this other typo Of woman; and
give un the idea that she is to be your
employe twelve hours u day. s.,
One desperate housewife discovered
that right within stones throw of her
house there was q woman who really
wanted to find some way Of bringing
into her purse few extra dollars. So
she made an arrangement with her to
come into her kitchen every day
around dinner time to cook tho dinner
and clean up afterward. Every night
before leaving she made an inspection
OF the ice box and left a little sug-
gested menu with the necessary things
for the woman who employed her to
order. She did not appear in the
dining room, but took the dishes rs
far as the pantry, where members OF
the family served themselves.
There are school girls and college
girls everywhere who would be willing
to help you out little: there are
even college boys who would do your
cleaning. There are old men and old
women who would perform lighter
tasks for You ut reasonable rate.
The thing for you to do Is to get out
and find them and then convince them
tA'hc work is what they are willing

danger of salvation, is the surest,
best and most agreeable laxative.
One Calotab at bed time with a
swallow of water-that's all, no
salts, no nausea, no danger and no
upsetting of the digestion and ap-
petite. Next morning your cold has
vanished, your liver is active, your
system is purified and refreshed and
you are feeling fine with a hearty
appetite for breakfast.
For your protection, Calotabs are
sold only in original sealed packages,
price thirty-five cents. All druggists
