 want to know anything more about the things.
 We will let you in on one state secret though. There was a fellow wrote to us from Paris lately and he said that the women over there had quit wearing them. We did not like story. There have been a lot of things like that come f, om that city lately. They are wearing stencils for stockings, for one thing. There is one place in this state also that a reporter stated that he had strag ght information that one of the girls in the town were following fashions latest decree and going stockingless. We uO not approve or IL anynOW. BuC we won't tell you what town it is that we refer to above.
 In the practice of thrift there is a good deal to be gained by going without the equatorial container and the lower coverings. The things cost money, we know that. Maybe that is why the paper lady in the window is always smiling when she looks at the boobs who covet her corsets. Stockings, also, are not cheap. We can see them advertised at big prices. {You will note that we are making ourselves perfectly clear with each step in the argument. The use of a little stove polish, providing it is artistically applied should prove a great saving for any small family that is just starting out in life. The coal scuttle, with the bottom poked out, might take the place of corsets But then we suppose the timers would strike. It's an Ill wind that blows no one good.

Says Clemenceau and
Foch Pledged Immunity
To RhineLond Leaders

MANNHEIM, June (By The AS
sociated nress).- When the project of
the Rhunish republic was first
broached, Marshal Foch, commander
in chief of the Allied armies. was
approached through occupation off
GERS and asked whether the Rhine
Ianders could work for a republic
without the risk of being disciplined
by Germany, according to the "Neue
Baden Landeszeitung The newspaper
states that Marshal Fooh and Premier
Ciemenceau Of France conferred on the
subject and sent reply to the Rhine
landers that "the German govern
ment would never again have any
thing to do with the left bank of the
Rhine, and, hence, the propagandists
could not be punished"
In publishing these facts the news
paper tells of a conference between
Herr Richter and Herr Hofmann. Cen
trist members of the National Assem-
bly,, with General Gerard, of the French
army, on March 8. 1t is said that Gen
eral Gerard was told that the people
OF the Rhine province were over
whelmingly in favor of an indepen-
dent state, but were unable to work
for its promotion because OF their
fear of the German government. The
project was then, it is said, taken up
with Marshal Foch and Premier

COBLENZ, Juno 4 (By The Associ-

which was issued, it is said, with the
consent of the German government,
just after the sinking of the Lusitania,
is in the hands of Americans. Official
photographs of the medal are to be
sent to Washington.
The Lusitania medal, which has been
variously described, is of bronze, about
two and half inches in diameter On
one side, in relief, is depicted the
sinking of the ship, with the following
inscription in German: "Lusitania,
sunk by German U-boat, May 7, 1916"
On the reverse side is depicted a
line of people at booking office, the
figure within the ticket Office window
being a skeleton, handing olS steam
ship transportation to those awaiting
their turn. The German inscription is
translated here as "anything for

Death Sentence,

Last Word Is Yet TO Be
Said Regarding Terms

BASLE, June 5.-The Grand Coun-
Gil Of German Austria, which met on
Tuesday under the chairmanship of
President Seitz, adopted the report of
DR.. Otto Bauer, the gist of which was
that the peace terms presented to Ger
man Austria by the Allies meant "the
death sentence of the Austrian re-
public" according to Vienna advices
received here.
Newspapers of Vienna, including the
"Arbeiter Zeitung," the Socialist or
gan, echo this sentiment with various
degrees Of vehemence. Some darklv
hint that "the last word has not been
spoken"
President Seitz, Foreign Minister
Bauer and Vice President Fink have
left Vienna for Feldkirch, to confer
with Karl Renner, the Austrian Chan
cellor and head Of the Austria peace
mission at St. German.

used principally in the Rhineiand and
Palatinate and it is being partly dis

Cologne and Wiesbaden, who, without

DR.. Orten, who was named on June

Press ).-Such progress was made by
the council of four day that it is
hoped that, working through Sunday
the reply to the German counter pro-
posals may be ready for delivery Mon
day
The council has decided to refuse
Germanys request that fixed sum for
reparations be indicated in the treaty
Conference circles are somewhat re-
lieved by assurances from high quar-
ters that the council of four is nearing
an accord
The council held session this morn
ing, with M. Paderewski, the Polish
Premier, present, concerning the Polish
frontier in Germany, particularly
Sllesia, and in the afternoon considered
the vigorous protests of Rurania and
other Balkan states against giving the
league OF nations supervision over the
protection of racial minorities.
Opposes Modification
M. Paderewski strongly opposed any
modification in the political status Of
Silesia as fixed by the treaty. This led
TO proposal to grant the Germans
economic advantages in Silesian coal
iron and zinc sufficient to carry on in
dustries and aid in paying for indem
mites.
The experts presented tables show
ing the treatys cession of Silesa and
the Saar region has resulted in re-
ducing Germany's coal by 81 per cent.
iron "a per cent and zinc 80 per cent,
and 1t is to Offset these reductions that
1t is proposed to establish an economic
exchange without modifying Polish

The general situation within the
council is described as tending more
toward modification of the details of
the German treaty without affectinc
