APPEAL IN BEHALF OF
 WAR PRISONERS IN SIBERIA

Geneva, Dec. 25.--The Internation- al Red Cross has sent out an appeal in behalf Of the prisoners of war in Siberia. Two hundred thousand prisv oners, for the most part Austrians and Hungarians. many of whonl were cap tured 1914. are living without shei- ter and virtually without clothing and little food. Any contagious disease may make terrihs ravages. Typhus has already killed i2.oe0 Of the 16,0oe men at the Troitzy camp.
 As it would need 225,o60. 900 francs to transport the prisoners to their homes, the Red Cross fears that the operation would be too long, and hopes that their fate can be anelio. rated quickly by assistance rendered

To Polish Shoes.

The Englishman's shoes, or 'hoots.'
are the best looking seen on the feet
OF any race. The reason for this Is
that the Englshman puts trees in his
shoes, which are polished with tho
leather thus smoothed out. The soft
ening polish, If applied while the shoe
is on the foot as is usual in America,
creases the leather into the shape Of
the foot and the shoe loses it's smooth
effect. Trees, which add to the long
life of shoes, are inexpensive and
should be put in the shoes every night.
If you polish your own shoes, try pol,
ishing them when on trees. You will
be pleased with the result.

BUSINESS WOMEN
WILL ORGANIZE,
IN ST.LOu|S soon
Organizations in Many of
States Will Be Repre-
sented at Meeting.

Southern cities in which business
and professional women's clubs have
already voted to go into state fedora
tions to be effected in June, and the
national federation of business and
professional women's clubs to be or
ganized in St. Louis July 14-18, in
clude New Orleans, Atlanta, which is
the southern headquarters, Macon,
and Athens, Ca, Jacksonville and
Tampa, Fla; Birmingham, Mobile,
Montgomery and Admission, Ala;
Charlotte and Winston-Salem, N. c.;
and Richmond, Va:
The organizer for nine southern
states, Mrs. Nina B. Price, who is
representing the twenty-five out
standing business and professional
women of the United States who form
the national promotion committee,
states that in every southern city to
which she has carried the message of
federation, it is the same conditions
calling for the organized strength of
the business and professional women
of the country to handle them, which
are attracting the attention of her
audiences and securing their co-opera-
ton in the federation movement.
The thinking business women of
the United States are the ones to
realize first that the challenge of wo-
mans new opportunities lies in her
ability to meet them.
Right here the federation'se idea diff
fers materially from that of the un-
ion, in that the federation will put a
premium on efficiency. Another point
of difference is that the federation
will provide independence of action for
every club belonging to it, although
the cooperation of all the clubs will
be called upon to back every move
ment in which the members Of the
federation, as a whole are interested.
To return to the federation idea of
promotion Of efficiency among bust
ness and professional women: "That
guaranteed efficiency. of equal value
is the best method for securing equal
pay is plank in the federation's
PLATFORM" says Mrs. Price, (which is
meeting with hearty response from
the business and professional women
wherever I have met them. We hear
much these days of salaries for wo-
men, and little of the quality of wo-
mems service. The thinking business
and professional women realize this
situation, and they are going to make
the standardization of qualification
for business women one of their
strongest efforts"
Business men everywhere state
that there is no danger that the
capable business woman will be

to make way.
Measures to correct the prevalence
of quitting business colleges before

women want to fight for. A great

with poor equipment stand in the way
of their stronger sisters by giving a
false impression Of the average bust
ness woman and her fitness for real
service.
Standardization of costume for
business hours is another purpose the
federated women will work to meet
the possible necessity for uniforms
unless there is change on the part of
the, business women themselves in the
frivolous style of clothes which are
too prevalent in offices and business
houses"

to an advent, not an exodus. The old

Unreasonable spaces between, are
passed away. and are replaced by a

wants to make a very fast pudding
and on he hoped, hurrying more than
ever, Thinking of the hasty pudding
seemed to make the bunny og overy
speedy like.
Then, all of a sudden, out from be-
hind a stump jumped the bad old Pip
sisewah.
"Ah, ha! Hold on there! Wait! I
want some of your souse!" he cried to
Uncle Wiggily.
NO! No! You can't catch mel"
laughed Uncle Wiggily. II have some
corr meal for a very quick pudding
and l am going so extremely rapid that
you never can catch me! Whoop la!'
Then he hoped along so much like
an automobile, that, race after him as
he did, the Pipsisewah could not catch
Uncle Wiggily. And so with the very
fast corn meal Mr.. Longears safely
reached his bungalow, Nurse Jane made
the most delicious hasty pudding and
every one said 1t was Just fine!
So you see 1t is sometimes a good
thing to be in a hurry, and If the clock
doesn't hold its hands up in front of
its face when the eyes in the potatoes
want to see what time it is, I'll tell you
next about Uncle Wiggily and the i'm
