Valuable Waste Reclaimed.

By the use of a volatile solvent, the
United States forest products labora-
tory has succeeded in economically re-
claiming the oils and paraffin from
waste wax paper, leaving the pulp in
condition for use anew. Extraction
by steam and hot water was unsat-
isfactory, and failed to remove all
wax and oils, while the cost was too
great. Though this new field of OPP
GRAFTON is small, the products are
valuable. The entire waste for treat
ment now includes about enough from
wax paper mills to support one CEN
trail recovery plant. but the quantity
is likely to increase rapidly, with the
prospect that other plants in various
places will be required ere long.

VIENNA is "DYING TO MUSIC"
City Specifically Gayer Than Ever
as War Profits Are
Spent.

Berlin, Germany.-Vienna, ever a
gay city, is now more specifically gay
than ever, owing to the Illicit trad
ers who have profited by the war and
now are spending their ill-gotten gains,
writes a newspaper correspondent
from the Austrian capital. Vienna,
says one Of these writer's, is "dying to
music" He describes the people as
starved and morally degenerate" De
scribing the scenes in the dance halls
and pavilions and gambling rooms, the
writer saws that nearly all the peo-
pie demonstrate a desperate demand
for youth and enjoyment and adds that
''this sickly whirl of enjoyment border
ing on self-destruction" produces a
frightful effect on the sober-minded
people Of the city.

The great army of home builders
this year are turning more and more
to originality in the designs for the
homes that they are erecting. Designs
for modern homes are the results of
the architectural experience of this
and past generations. From the homes
that were designed in various periods,
the best has been selected and the
balance discarded. Thus does the
present-day home sacrifice neither
beauty to convenience, nor convenience
to beauty.
An example of this process of archi-
tectural selection is shown in the &C
companying design. Here has been
combined the exterior beauty of the
old English style of architecture with
modern room arrangement and mod
ern construction methods and mate
rails.
This old English stucco house Of six
rooms is what might be termed a
''beauty." It's exterior appearance is
out of the ordinary, while the room
arrangement and the conveniences in
stalled in them are of the type that
appeal to the modern home builder.
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1919-11-13

to suit the ideas of the person who
wishes to build a home. The exterior
can be finished with face BRICK or the
house built of brick or hOllOw-clay tile
and stucco applied. There is much to
be said in favor Of brick or tile con-
struction, the principal thing being
that both provide home that is warm
er in winter and cooler in summer, al
though the cost is little more. At
any rate a consultation with the local
architect, contractor and material
dealer, will be of great assistance to
the home builder in determining the
materials to be used and the cost of
the home.
One of the delights of home build
ing is the selection of the exterior
design and the interior arrangement.
This is a phase of securing home
that should not be done hurriedly. It
should be remembered that the home
builder expects to live in the house
for great many years, consequently
the selection Of the design is impor-
disappointment. Here Is where the
services and advice of architect, con-
tractor and material dealer will help
the prospective builder. By expert
ence and education these building
specialists know what to avoid.
The first step in building home is
securing a lot on which to build It..
Here again caution should be exercised
in determining the character of the
neighborhood, the probability of it's
growing or deteriorating, and it's prox-
unity to schools, etc. Appreciation of
the property makes home owning a
good investment, irrespective of the
comforts that come with home, be-
cause there always is the possibility
that the owner may want to sell, for
some reason or other.
But after considering all of these
points, the man who uses care will
never regret that he built home Of
his own.

SHOW WARS APPALLING COST
Figures Reveal Price World Paid 70
Prevent Hunnish Hordes Extin-
gushing Light of Liberty.

Some comparative figures which
force realization of the magnitude
of the world war are given in Henry
Fords Dearborn Independent, from
which is quoted:
There were 10 major wars fought
In the world in the III years from 1893
to 1910. The late war cost so per cent
more in lives and cost 700 per cent
more in money spent than the whole
10 other wars put together.
''The most costly in lives of the pre-
vious wars was that between England
and France, 1793-1815, total of 1,9OO,-
600 men having persisted.
Next came the war of 1S54'56, In
which England, France, Sardinia, Tur-
key. Austria and Russia fought; 6O9,-
1877 men were killed.
The more recent war between Rus
STA and Japan came third, claiming
the lives of 555,9O0 men.
an our own Civil war both sides
together lost 494.4O0 men, ranking
fourth in loss of life in the great wars
previous to the late one.
SIN the struggle between France and
Germany, so disastrous to France and
which played very important part in
the recent peace settlement, 81, 900
lives were lost. ~

have read of the Civil war, of Gettys-
burg, Of Pickett's charge, of Sher-
mans march to the sea, of Anderson
Vile, have been wont to look on it as
one of terrible straightforward 1t was.
"But Russia alone lost more than
three times as many men in the late
war as were lost by both the North
and the South in the Civil war.
4 Germany lost more than three times
as many.
France lost nearly three times as
many.
"Great Britain lost nearly twice as
many.
austria lost nearly twice as many.
$50 great has been the development
In the engines of death that it is al
most impossible to conceive the in
crease of fatalities In the late war as
compared with previous wars.
''There were 60 years of war among
the various nations in the lit years
prior to 1910.

O97 men lost their lives in those wars
'"That would mean 1885 lives lost

"In. the late war there were 200 men
killed an hour, about 1890 for every
day of the war; total Of 7,45O, 200,
according to the best available fig
ures. That would be about 1,750,OOO

'BiIIy Goat Is 0rnery
Cuss," Says Physician

Santa Ana.-"The billy goat
is an ornery cuss." This is the
verdict of DR.. w. G. Dubois,
after an experience that he
doesn't care to repeat.
The physician was making a
professional call in the suburbs,
and inadvertently left the door
of his car open. A billy goat
was eating tin cans and Ber-
muda grass nearby; the auto
seat looked very inviting, and
the goat entered, ensconsing
himself comfortably upon the
cushion.
Having completed his call, the
doctor tried to "shoo" the ami
NAL out, but it refused to be
shooed. A grab at one Of it's
hind legs resulted in a brief en-
counter which was not disas-
trous, but brought the goats
horns into play.
All other means failing, Du-
bois then possessed himself Of a
long pole and with one mighty
heave pushed the obstinate
thing from out his car. This
done, he had to keep the goat
at the end Of the pole until he
could start the car and make
his getaway.

THRIFT cHAlRMEN APPOINTED
BY ILLINOIS CLUB WOMEN |
Mrs Frederick A. Dow Hears Favor
ably From All but Eight Dis
tricts in the State.

Mrs. Frederick A. Dow, who recent
" undertook the task of lining up the
$4,000 women of the Illinois Federated
Clubs for the Government savings
campaign, has received favorable re-
ports from most Of the club districts
on the progress of the organization
work.
Mrs. Dow asked the presidents of
the twenty-five club districts in Illinois
to appoint thrift chairmen. She has
heard from all but eight districts.
The chairmen appointed are: First,
Mrs. G. D. Stone; Second, Mrs. How
ard Ames; Third, Mrs. II. II. Day;
Sixth, Mrs. w. ]. Benson; Eighth, Mrs.

ty-first, Mrs. G. S. Mahan, Palmyra;
Twenty-second, Mrs. Peter Johnson,
Collinsville; Twenty-third, Mrs. Harry
Farson, Salem; Twenty-fifth, Mrs. e.
e. Jacobs, West Frankfort.
Because the war is over many peo-
pie think all movements started dur
ing the great world conflict are now
dead issues" said Mrs. Dow. 'But
that is not true of the savings cam
paign of the government, and the
women can play a very vital part in
making this a great success, not only
to help finance the government but to
help themselves and the community
in which they live. Some women have
an idea that this campaign is only
mans affair. They are mistaken.
There is no better channel to make
thrift a permanent habit than the
home, and it is through the women the
home can be reached. The job of
making this campaign success is
just as much woman'S as mans"

Alaskan Fur Seals.

A tentative annual census Of the
Alaskan fur seals just made by DR.. G.
Dallas Hanna indicates the strength Of
the herd as 524 ,269 animals Of all ages,
compared with 1885, 432 seals in 1913
The number of pups born, equivalent
to the number of breeding cows, was
157,172, an increase over 1918 Of 10
per cent in each class. The aggregate
figures for 1919 do not include tha
seals taken for their skins.
According to the telegraphic reports,
22,O27 fur-seal skins have been taken
on st. Paul island and 1854 on st.
George island through the regular kill
ing season ending Aug. 10. A special
effort has been made to reduce the ex-
cess of large male seals, with the re-
suit that over 6,4OO such skins have
been taken.

NEW SAVINGS CERTIFICATES
CALLED MARVEL OF FINANCE
U. S. "Baby Bonds" of 500 and 81 900
Denominations Are Becoming
Popular Investment.

Reports from all parts Of the Sew
enth district show the increasing pop
ularity of the new $1O0 and $1,000
Treasury Savings certificates. They
are virtually 'baby bonds" and their
investment value is readily seen. Both
banks and individuals are investing in
this new form of government security.
Secretary Of the Treasury Glass has
characterized these certificates as "the
marvel of finance" and Albert Bos-
well, manager Of sales for the Seventh
District War Savings organization,
has pointed out six reasons why this
term of the secretary of the treasury
fits them. The reasons are:
/. They carry valuable tax-ex-
emption privileges.
2. They cannot depreciate in value,
not being subject to market fuctua.
tions.
3. They are liquid investment, re-
deemable for cash on ten days. notice.
4. They yield substantial income,
actually more than ~ per cent.
S. They are short term, maturing
January 1, 1924.
6. They represent absolute safety as
obligations of the United States gov
eminent.
The 500 certificates may be pur-
chased at post Offices Of the first and
second class and at banks; $1,000 GER
tifcates may be obtained through
banks or trust companies and certifi-
Gates Of either denomination may be
ordered direct from the War Savings
district headquarters, 1O5 West Mon
roe street, Chicago, Ill.
The new certificates are issued only
in registered form with the name Of
the owner written in at the time of the
purchase. The registration records are
kept in Washington and this feature is
a protection to the investor.
War Savings certificates filed with
twenty War Savings stamps, series Of
1919, may be exchanged for Treasury
Savings certificates in denominations
of 500, and ten such War Savings GER
tificates may be exchanged for a 81 900
Treasury Savings certificate. The price
Of the 500 certificate in November is
$84.4O. The increase in cost is 20
cents each month. The $1,000 certifi-
cate in November costs 1914. The
price of this denomination increases
