The collection Of photographs by
members Of the United States Signal
Corps, showing the various activities
of the A. E. F. in France, which is now
| on exhibition in the Corcoran Gallery of
Art. is of extraordinary interest, both
subjectively and artistically. Few
exhibitions of paintings set forth in
the great galleries of museums pre-
sent a larger percentage of highly
meritorious work. Although the men
who made these photographs are alb
solutely unknown as artists and would
probably scorn the title, the results
they have obtained are fundamentally
most artistic. Inherently. if not
through education, number of these
men apparently possess an under
standing Of the rules of composition
a keen sense of values. the relation
of light to shade and the apprecia-
tion of the pictorial. When one stops
to think that this work has all been
done through the medium Of photog-
raphy with all it's handicaps, it is

nent in taste. but rather due to the
| fact that artists today who painted
subject pictures either chose trivial
subjects or painted poorly. The truth
of this deduction is evidenced by this
collection of pictorial Photographic
made by men of the Signal Corps OF
the Army in France. These are all

| To mention only a few examples:
One of these pictures is entitled EN-
tertaining the Boys of the A. E. F.
| and shows a group gathered in front
of the Joan of Arc Church. on the
steps of which little play taker
| from the history of Joan of Arc is
being enacted. 1t is a big subject, but
| 1t is treated with the utmost sim
plicity. The interest is concentrated
| in the center of the composition, and
the emphasis is put just in the right
place. No artist could have made a
| better arrangement of figures. Per-
haps less good in composition. but

latter by an elderly man, both seated
somewhat in the shadow. The singer
wears a dress of pale yellow or corn
vogue in the late seventies or early
eighties, quaint enough today to be
almost grotesque. The gown is so
carefully and skillfully painted that
the picture for this reason in part is
found reminiscent Of paintings by
to commend it. The three figures are
grouped in such way that the unity
Of the composition is well preserved.
The one stands forth with pleasing
prominence. but without too much
emphasis. The work has sentiment
which does not degenerate into senti-
mentality.

Mr. Many's work invariably shows
strong individuality and has distinct
style. Some Of the pictures now on ex-
hibtion possess in addition to these
merits other qualities which commend
ture, nor does he attempt to set forth
the outdoor world as it appears to the
casual observer. Line and color interest
him apparently most in relation to pat

ton. Several separately considered and

GOLD LOST TO THE WORLD
calIy Goes On Without Ceasnq,
Either Day or Night.

Every ship that goes to the bottom
takes with her certain amount of
gold. 1t may be only a few pounds
worth or-as in the case of the ia
nous Lutine-a million may be lost in
a minute.
Every fire that occurs means a de-
struction of gold, and there is never a
minute, day or night, when scores of
human habitations are not burning.
London alone has 2,400 fires yearly.
Besides all this, there is the matter
of boarding. In countries where banks
are not found in every town, the peo-
pie who have gold hide or bury it. In
many cases they die without reveal
ing the hiding place. In this way
India alone swallows up more than
100000 worth of gold yearly, China
more than this, while Africa is at pres
ent absorbing gold in this way at a
rate of more than million pounds a
year. The money is paid as wages to
Katfir laborers at the mines, and by
them carried away 10 their kraals
whence it never returns.

The MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit to Sae laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds Of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season Of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal sub
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine 10 sterilized
and as a final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
in sterile bottles.
1t is the wonderful combination Of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine
30 successful in the treatment of
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use Of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound Which we are continually pub
fishing attest to its virtue.

COOPERATIVE BUYING SAVES

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
An instance of the value of cooper
tive buying is found in the recent &C.
ton of group of farmers in Orange
county, Florida, who combined their
orders for carbon bisulphid and placed
them through their county agent. The
purchase totaled 1000 pounds and the
material was secured at saving Of
3S cents a pound under the price that
would have been charged for individ-
ual purchases in small quantities, so
that the deal represented saving of
$3.50 to these farmers. This carbon
bisulphid will be used in fumigating
the corn to kill corn weevils. Losses
from this source sometimes are as
much as 20 per cent. The farmers
who are planning to fumigate their
corn either have remodeled their old
cribs to make them alright or have
built new ones.

a palatable and suitable feed Of this
kind. 1t is desirable to add a little

END IF ENGLISH COAL
 STRIKE E IN SIGHT

LONDON, July 24.-It is understood that an amicable settlement of the coal strike will certainly be arranged tomorrow as a result of a meeting of the subcommittee of the Miners Federation with the coal eontrpller to- night
 The day was fully occupied with conferences between Premier Lloyd Ger:ge and other members of the gov ernment and the mining interests and closed with the prospect of settlement. According to the strike leaders in Yorkshire the whole trouble arose through an attempt by the coal con- trolleP to evade the piece rate pro- visions of the Sa.nlley report, which the government had adopted as a working basis.
 One result Of today's conference be- tween the premier and the miners eX- ecutive was a new piece rate offer on the part of the government which the miners federation appointed a sub committee to consider. The sub com mittee held a conference this evening with the coal controllers.
 No official report of this conference has been issued, but it was unofficially stated that when the Miners Fedora tion meets in the morning to consider the subcommittee report there is every prospect that a settlement will be reached

MAGDALENA MAYOR
 TAKES ACTION TO
 ENFORCE NEW LAW
[RepubIican A. p. Leased wire1


 DOUGLAS, July 24.-Every Chinese merchant in the municipality of Mag dalena, Sonora, Mexico, has been ar rested by order of the mayor, Jose Maria Arana, upon the charge of fail ure to comply with the Sonora state statute making employment of at least 50 per cent Mexican help ''in all estab- llshments, industrial or commercial" compulsory, according to Fl Tiempo, a newspaper published in Cananea, which reached Douglas today. The merchants were first given warning that they must replace Chinese clerks with Mexicans. Upon their failure to comply within the time limit allowed the merchants were arrested, tried and convicted. Heavy penalties were i'm posed' the paper says. but whether this included both fines and imprisonment allowable under the terms of the law, is not stated.
 Mayor Arana has been one of the leading figures in the Chinese agi- tation which resulted in the passage of the 50 per cent law at the session of the Sonora state congress in June He was particularly active last year in speech making throughout Sonora in an effort to arouse the MeXicans to what he termed the Chinese menace"
 Chinese control most of the mercan- tile business in Sonora. Through a mutual benefit societ, to which every Chinese in the state is said to pay dues It IS understood steps are to be taken to test the legality of the 80 per cent law In the Mexican courts. Their at torneys are said to be preparing briefs to show that the law violates the fa- vored nation clause in the treaty be- tween the governments of Mexico and China.
