APOLOGY TO COSTA RIGA.

Before exchange critics gleefully
point fingers, hasty admission is made
that Costa Rica is not an island and
should not have been scrambled into
the reference to a speech by Senator
Reed, when he was complaining that
black republics and kingdoms would
rule the league of nations.
The Journal had in mind the island
of Hayti with two governments liable
to try to crowd into the league and
have two votes to one by the United
States, which is now bossing the bru
nette population, by the aid of
marines
Costa RIGA is a pocket-size country
about twice as large as Belgium. but
its $4,000 population are mostly of
Spanish descent. There are $4,000
Indians, several thousand Chinese and
only l,20O blacks. But that does not
prove that little white country ought
to be allowed to have the same voting
strength as the United States. in the
big league.
With this explanation, it is hoped
the government Of Costa Rica will be
satisfied without appealing to the
league of nations for PREPARATION from

WORKERS ARE WAITING.

AT present while manufacturing
and business are tagging, unemploy-
ment is probably not decreasing, in
many cities of the country. The en-
ployment bureau is active in seeking
work for men, but the late congress
and the absent president did little to
restore before the-war conditions
On the contrary, by holding tight to
the powers given for war purposes.
the administration has prevented pri-
Vate enterprise from marching on.
Until wheels turn to employ skilled
as we'll as ordinary labor there will be
great numbers Of idle men of special
trades waiting for work.
There is no railway construction
and will be none under present condi-
tons. Thus thousands of men ex-
perienced in railway work are kent
from activity. That men in railway
service are better paid than of wore
does not relieve the distress of the
outs. Without railway construction
The iron and coal Industries slow
down, the copper mines kill time, and
so it goes all along industrial lines to
which men look. for employment.

FARMERS TO! FIGHT RADICALS.
Chicago News ,

Progressive and farseeing farmers
OF the corn belt-Illinois. Indiana and
l0Wa--are forming great organiza-
ton to include hundreds of thou
sands of their own number to battle
radical ideas that are trying to gain
entrance in the Mississippi valley
states, it was revealed in Chicago. The
new organization will fight the en-
croachments of the non-partisan
league, which dominated North Da-
kota and is spreading over the west,
and which for two years has tried to
organib2e the Illinois farmers, but
with little success
Seeking not to organize the farmers
as class to work for class interests
as against the interests of others but
rather for the purpose of promoting
'Amer&anism" among the farmers,
seeking cooperation with consumers
and others with whom the farmers
have to deal, asking legislation that
will protect the farmer against
sharks of various sorts. and pro-
noting the interests of farming in
general along with other construc-
tive interest of the nation. are some of
the purposes of the Illinois Agricul-
tural association.

Not a Bite of
Breakfast Until
You Drink Water
Says a glass Of hot water and
phosphate prevents illness
and keeps us fit.

Just as coal when it burns, leaves
behind a certain amount of incom-
bustible material in the form of ashes,
so the food and drink taken day after
day leaves in the alimentary canal a
certain amount of indigestible ma
ierial, which if not completely elimi-
mated from the system each day, be-
comes food for the millions of bac-
terra which infest the bowels. From
this mass of leftover waste, toxins
and ptOmain-like poisons are formed
and sucked into the blood.
Men and women who can't get feel
ing right must begin to take INSIDE
baths. Before eating breakfast each
morning drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonfrl of lime
stone phosphate in it to wash out of
the thirty feet of bowels the previous
days accumulation of poisons and
toxins and to keep the entire alimen-
tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
Those who are subject to sick head
ache, cold, biliousness, constipation,
others who wake up with bad taste,
foul breath. backache, rheumatic stiff
ness, or have a sour, gassy stomach
after meals, are urged to get a quar-
ter pound of limestone phosphate
from the drug store, and begin prac-
ticing internal sanitation. This will
cost very little, but is sufficient to
make anyone an enthusiast on the
subject.

JUSTICE TO TEACHERS.

The school board of Albuquerque
acted justly in increasing the salaries
of teachers and providing for con-
unuous compensation throughout the
year. The result will be increased in
terest and efficiency, with fewer
changes in the force. Wen paid en-
ployes in any line Of service accom-
pllsh most. Certainly in educa tonaL
matters a disconnected state of mind
OF teachers is detrimental to the serv-
ice Teachers who have qualified for
the profession have earned the right
to live in comfort without constant
financial worry. The remuneration
in the vacation season will enable
them to attend summer schools, to
increase their own efficiency, assist
other instructors and also have rest
and recreation which Will better fit
them for the combining and exhausting
work of school rooms.

RISK BUREAU To
HAVE OWN SYSTEM
To HANDLE MAIL
,spse,AL DISPATCH TO MORNING JOURNAL

Washington, May 24.-More than a
ton of incoming mail daily, and nearly
as much outgoing mail. has made it
necessary for the bureau Of war risk
insurance to build up a postal system
of its own larger than IS maintained
by any Single institution except the
postoffice in the United Stj6es. An
announcement today by the bureau
said an average of 10000 persons
write daily, mquiring about allotments
and allowances, insurance policies. or
compensation payments, or RENTING
checks and currency as premiums on
insurance, This also means that each
letter must be answered and that
makes an outgoing mail of $4,000 let
tiers.
Since the bureau has 1900 en-
ployes and thirty-six divisions de
voted to various phases Of the bu-
reauS work, the opening, reading,
sorting and delivery of these letters to
the proper divisions is task requir-
ing more than 100 employees.

check up to see that the envelope
contains the check or bill which the
letter may say Il contains, aud that
the return address is on the letter as
well as the. envelope. Thousands Of
letters come without return address,
making it difficult to trace thom.
Hundreds fenvelopes contain cur
rency without letter or address to

worked out laboriously by clerks.

nation upon which q reply may be

necessary information is sent to the
writer.

ing to the states for which they are
destined and tied in bundles and
placed in separate sacks before leav-
ing the bureau in order that they may
be more rapidly handled in the fed
eral postoffices.
