Anaemla means iron
deficiency. The skin
of anaemic men and
women is pale, the
flesh flabby. The
muscles lack tone, the
brain Tags and the
memory fails and they
become weak, nerv-
Gus, irritable, despondr
ent and melancholy.
When the iron goes
from the blood of wo-
men the roses go from
their cheeks. L have

SA WING DAYLIGHT

"A resolution has been introduced in the New York Board
of Aldermen TO continue the daylight saving idea in that city.
Other localities are considering similar action. With some cit
les running on a schedule of an hour ahead of others the result
is bound to be chaos. -s
Railroads must naturally abide by the national standard
time and if there is no general advancing of the clocks the
railroads are going to be run as they were before the daylight
saving idea was introduced. This means that a train starting
at one city which has advanced its time one hour will run to
another city, fifty or sixty miles away, which has not advanced
its time, and find that 1t has arrived at its destination at the
same time it started, although it has been running for an hour.
Such a situation would be ridiculous.
The only remedy we can see for saving daylight If con-
gress refuses to change the time as has been done for the past
two years, is to start work an hour earlier by the correct time.
If saving daylight is really worth while we ought to be able to
do it witheutfoolng ourselves by setting our clocks ahead. In
the summer time let the factory whistle blow at 6 o'clock in the
morning instead of at 7 o'clock as it does now. AS a matter of
fact, by actual time it blows at 6 o'clock now, but we have been
fooling ourselyesinto making it appear like 7 o'clock by setting
the clock an hour ahead. We could have the noon hour from
Al O'Clock to ~ o'clock instead of from 42 to 4, as we do now.
Then,w we might quit work at 4 o'clock instead of at 5 O'clock.
Thus the daylight would be saved, we would have the long
evenings for recreation and we would not have to disrupt
standard time to do it.

Good and evil balance in the PLAN
etary government for this day, ae-
and Venus are in benefic aspect,
Mars, Neptune and Jupiter are all
adverse.
1t is q sway under which to be
most conservative in all I business
matters, out mining interests are
subject to favorable conditions.
Women have a good direction
while this c-onffguration prevails and
they should benefit especially through
dealings with men Of age and distinc-
ton.
1t Is a favorable sway for weddings
or engagements. The stars still fore
shadow a great increase in the num-
Der of marriages.
There is a sinister sign governing
stocks and there Is an Indication that
many good Investments will suffer a
temporary depreciation
Caution in all business ventures is
enjoined for Saturn may cause sert-
Gus and unexpected losses.
This should be a most favorable
day for all theatrical enterprises and
especially lucky for actresses.
Journeys come Id a threatening
aspect, especially those on the water.
The seers foretel1 that the courts
will hear testimony that concerns
army matters. A sensational case In
which an officer figures is prognosti-
Gated.
Writers may find the conditions
difficult today, for It Is prophesied
that new standards in literature have
been established by war experiences.
Changes in newspaper management
and the establishment of new dailies
seem to be foreshadowed. One of
these will gain great national inffu-
ence.
Increase of the birthrate Is indicat-
ed and more girls than boys Will be
born.
Benefits for the negro ace are
presaged and a new leader will arise
among them.
Persons whose birthdate 1t Is

exceedingly unlucky in the coming
year. Those who are employed should
make the most of their opportunities.
Children born on this day may be
hasty and impulsive but kind and
generous. These subjects of Libra

HATGYON DAYS.

The happy days of var are gone
and peace's firightfulness is here,
when we assemble on the lawn, and
cuss the ding-donged %profteer. In
war we struck for noble things, to
undermine the tyrant's sway, to over
turn the thrones of kings, and now we
strike for higher pay. In war we
loathed the foreign foe, and chased
him on his cheap john shoref and now,
alas, as all men know, we loathe the
man who lives next door. In war we
all united were, we had one purpose
and one end; but now we fill the air
with fur, the fur of neighbor and of
friend. 1 look back On the days of
war, that bitter val four long years,
and wonder what we stopped it for,
to usher in the profiteers. Far better
on the field to die, with fame. and
glory as your bed. than starve for lack
of coin to buy your share of angel
cake and bread. Far better meet a
stalwart foe and perish where your
banner flies, than have a hoarder lay
you low, with tricks a soldier would
despise. We clamored for the boon of
peace throughout the long and bloody
fray, and now we yell for the police to
take the blamed old boon away.

Daily Sermonette

Suffer little children 10 come unto
me and forbid them not"
Horace Greeley looked very COM
Portable, as he sat. medltative, in the
shade of the trees placed with his lit
tie enclosure in City Hall Park, in
downtown New York.
1t was hot, and his bronze coat may
have been a bit heating, but in a few
a those sturdy young trees will
have bigger branches and thicker
leaves and the famous journalist will
be fully protected from the avs OF
the sun.
A few blocks east were little chill
dren, sweltering in the tenements,
with never SO much as a blade of grass
to cheer them-some of them lying in
Railways and hanging out of windows,
trying to get a breath of cooling air.
And as the trees in Horace Greeley's
little private park thtcken, the
chances for life in the nearby tene-
ments will become thinner, for as
tenements grow older the death rate
of little children become greater.
Maybe it's a good thing to provide
shade trees for bronze statues-it
makes them look ever SO much more
human and gives them more color
but why deny them to little children,
to whom they many become as "a
shadow in a weary Iand''-as a life
saver In a crowded city?
There's no doubt that Horace Gree
ley wouldn't mind it a bit If those
nice green trees were to be remoyed
to a tenement backyard he'd look
just as wise and benevolent and COM
fortable-and no one else would ever
miss them. For it's dollar to dough-
nuts that not one person In a thou
sand who comes up out of the sub
way or crosses the park has ever real
ly noticed the three little trees that
surround Greeley's statue.
Oh, 1t doesn't matter much about
those particular trees, anyway. Let
them stay. But, it's just a bit aggra-
waiting when it as least seems that
somebody should be more concerned
about honoring dead men-no matter
how famous-than others are about
giving half-dead children a chance to
live.

THE LEAGUE OR M1LITARISM

One thing is certain, either we must adopt the League Of
Nations and do all we can to make 1t a success, OF we must
brace ourselves for the awful expense of maintaining a great
military machine with universal military training for all the
youths being always prepared to defend our interests IN a
world where it is everybody for themselves and a survival OF
the fttest.
With no guarantee of a settlement of international quar-
rels, the nations of Europe are going to begin to arm them
selves TO the teeth once more. Already it is predicted that WITH
in twenty-five years Germany will have reeuperated and VIII
be at France again, this time in a way to wipe France oil the
map entirely. Who is to prevent Germany doing this very
thing if there is no League of Nations making it certain that
any such attack would bring all civilization against the ag-
gressor?
weak andRe1pless countries? Take China, for instance. There
has been a great deal of sympathy expressed for CHINA over Inc
Shantung affair. China is a great, big helpless country She
is at the mercy Of almost any power that demands anything OF
her. That is the reason so many concessions have been
wrenched from her.
Japan has promised to return Shantung to China. Who
is to see to it that Japan lives up to this agreement if the League
of Nations fails? Furthermore, who is to prevent Japan TAX
ing stillmore of Chinese territory if there is no League OF Ma
tons to stop her?
Is the United States alone going to stop her? Are we
prepared to go to war with Japan over China? Then suppose
Russia or Germany gets strong again, as both doubtless WILL
and they, too, decide they want a piece of China, who IS TO pre-
vent them taking all they want? Will the United States alone
do it?
But if there is a League of Nations with a covenant having
such O. clause which guarantees the existing territorial posses
sions ofany member-these nations cannot seize any more OF
China without bringing down upon them the wrath of all the
civilized nations Of the earth, and no nation, no matter how
strong, will want to face such opposition.
AS matter of fact, for such nation as China, the-Leagde
of Nations is the greatest security that could be devised. Under
it China can grow and prosper without fear of outside aggres-
sion. Without it China becomes the prey Of the world and there
is no nation that will consider it sufficiently its business to in
terfere.
OF course, there is a chance that the League of Nations
itself will fail, but it is the only hope we have; 1T is the one
best chance of advancing civilization and doing away with
war.
1t is worth a trial. 1t surely is better than starting In on
a great military program such as will be essential for every
nation that cares to defend its rights If arms are going to be
the only guarantee hereafter. 1t is enough to make every Cit
izen Thoughtful ~as.to what the Republican senators are doing
ia The United States senate today. Defeat the League OF Ma
tions and the only hope now before the world to rid the nations
of the heavy burden of miitarlsm Is gone.

TRAINING FOR HIGHER HoNoRs

We read with a great deal of interest in the Painfleld
Courier-News that Warren G. King, who made such a strenu-
Gus fight for the Republican nomination for governor with
such insignificant results, is likely to be a candidate for United
States senator to succeed Senator Frelinghuysen or that he
may enter the congressional race next year In an effort to
succeed MI. Scully.
After all, this strenuous campaign that King has been put
ting up with so little to show for it may have been mainly to
introduce himself for greater contests to come. A man has got
to break in and make himself known in some way and a prelim-
mary campaign at a cost of about SIS, 900 may be worth while,
although it would seem pretty expensive.
For a newcomer in politics King certainly succeeded In
attracting attention and with the foundation thus laid there Is
no doubt that should it be his intention to go out for congress
or the United States senate he win make his opponents know
that they have been in a race, anyway. -----

"Geese is a heavy-set bird with a head
on one side and a tail on the other.
His feet is set so fur back on his rum

body. Some geese is ganders and has
a curl in his tail. .Ganders. don't lay
or set. They just eat, loaf and go
swimming. If I had to be a geese. /
