Radio Rail Signals Used

PARIS, Nov. 81 (By The Associated

Works.
The first locomotive on a French rail-
road to use oil as fuel was sent out

Murray Butler, Governor Lowden and
ex-Congressman Fitzgerald. H. will
not further divide Representative for
the financial policy of the government
as the Good bill must if it should be-,
come law. My bill seeks to make tho
Secretary of the Treasury a true
finance. officer, surveying the field of
expenditure. as we'll as that Of revenue.
THE Good bill would make the Pres
ldent, already the most overburdencd
executive in the world. his own finance
officer. The Good bill, which places Tho
bureau of the budget in the Office Of
the President, merely transfers the ex
listing and amorphous functions of the
treasury IN assembling the estimates
to this budget bureau, of which tho
vitality will depend upon the energy.
the financial skill and the personal at
tention of the President. 1t confers
on the budget bureau no powers to re-
wise and reduce estimates"
"The truth is that when the original
plan of the House bill was conceived,
and before Mr.. Good fathered it, it was
the intention of the bil's progeniters
budget, uncer the President, to be filled
by Paul Warburg, of New York. 1t
was plan apparently built around one
man. Now. without arguing for or
against Mr.. Warburg's qualifications
let me say that there is no gravcr
error than to create the Office for the
man instead Of finding the man for the
office. However considerable man
might be secured for the first director
Of the budget, we know that in the
long run he could not hold his own in
the unequal contest with the great de-
partments, all crying for public
moneys.
"Now is the timo to pass, not bill
which will only promise the ultimate
creation of q budget system, but one
which actually does create a budget
system, based on the experience Of tbs
countries where there are parliamen-
tary budget systems, and of the Ameri.
can cities and American statea which
have adapted to American institutions
the budget practice of other countries.'

Who Decide the Home Tooth Paste
All Statements approved BY High Dental 4 uthorae,
Note How Teeth Discolor


Mems teeth in particular.
Note how tartar forms.
Note how children's teeth de-
cay--and perhaps your OWL
despite the daily brushing.
Every woman knows that old
methods Of teeth cleaning are
inadequate. Every dentist
knows it.
The reason lies in that Shiny
film. You feel it with your
tongue. 1t c1ings to teeth,
enters crevices and stays. end
the tooth brush doesn't end it,
That film is what discolors-
not the teeth. It is the basis of
tartar. 1t holds food substance
which ferments and forms acid.
1t holds the acid in contact
with the teeth to cause decay.
Millions Of germs breed in it.
They, with tartar, are the chief
cause of pyorrhea. Thus most
tooth troubles are now traced
to film.
Dental science, after years Of
searching, has found way to
combat film. Dental autl1ori-
ties have proved this beyond
question. Now the method is
embodied in a dentifrice called
Pepsodent. And we offer to
all To-Day Tube to show ev-
cry home what it does.

You Must Remove the Film

Pepsodent embodies an eff
cient film corlbatant. It is
based on pepsia, the digestant
Of albumin. The film is album
nous matter. The object of
Pepsodent is TO dissolve it, then
to day by day combat it.
Pepsin must be activated.
The usual method is an acid
harmful to the teeth. So this
way long seemed barred. But
science tas discovered a harm
less activating method. Five
governments have ady
granted patents. Convincing
tests show that this method
solves the great film problem.
And it brings a new era in teeth
cleaning.

CHILDREN'S
SUNRISE STORIES
UNCLE WlGGILY'S BEAN
BAGS.
By HOWARD r. GARIs.
Copyright. 1919. The Mcclure
Newspaper syndicate.)

Uncle Wigsily told the mouse
teacher he would make some bean
bags for the children.
The bunny rabbit knew a little
about sewing - at least he thought
he knew how to make q cloth bag
and stuff 1t full of beans. So he
found some old pieces of muslin or
satin, or silk or calico-you know,
whatever bean bags are made Of
Then he got him a needle and
thread and a hickory nut for a Thin
Bile to push the needle through the
cloth. And he got him some beans
from down cellar. Uncle Wiggily did,
and he started in.
He kept on sewing away at the
bean bags, and really he didn't make
them SO badly. At last they were
finished, stuffed withs beans and
sewed up again. There were thir-
teen OF them.
I hope that isn't unlucky." said
the bunny as he put them in a bas-
ket next morning and started for
the hollow stump school.
He was thinking what fun the AMI
NAL children would have. playing
bean bag games at recess, when, all
of a sudden there was a rustIing in
the bushes, and out jumped the bad
old Pipsisewah.
'Oh. no! Oh. haI' howled the PIP,
Il am in luck today. First. I'll take
one of the nice apple dumplings you
have in that basket, and then I'll
take your souse""
He reached forth his paw to do
this. but brave Uncle Wicgily sud-
denly took out bean bag No. 10, ana
threw II right at the bad chap, hit
ting him very hard on the nose.
20, WOW, o, WOW" howled the
Pip, as the bag burst and all the
beans scattered out. What has
struck me? never knew apple
dumplings were like this" And
holding his paw to his nose away he
ran as fast as anything.
''Ha! Ha" laughed Uncle Wiggily.
Thirteen was not unlucky after all.
Now have an even dozen bean bags
left for the animal children"
And when he reached the hollow
stump school with. them the lady
mouse teacher thanked the bunny
very much; and the rabbits, suuir-
rels. ducks, puppy dogs and ali tho
other animal boys and girls had lots
of fun with Uncle Wiggily's bean
bags. So. if the rubber plant doesn't
stretch over the top OF the hat tree
and put a cap on the head of the
stairs. I'll tell you next about Uncle
Wiggily's red mittens.

Syudicate.)
Mars rules strongly for evil this
day. according to astroloSy. Jupiter
and Neptune also are adverse.
1t is a sway under which peace
and serenity cannot be expected.
The indications are not good for
business interests and there may be
crisis of some sort, the seers declare.
Uranus is in mildly helpful as
pect that should encourage Just judg-
meEt and a desire for fairness.
All the signs seem to presage a
continued fermcnt OF thought which
will be expressed in grave dangers
to the public welfare.
Theaters and places Of amusement
will prosper this month, even though
there may be marked tendency to-
ward retrenchment in money SPEND
ing.
Commercial problems involving
critical conditions will come into pub
lie notice and legislative considera-
ton with the beginning of the year.
Neptune again gives warning that
the navy demands the nations aid
and that neglect may bring about ter
rible disasters. The Pacific coast
should be safeguarded.
Women continue subject to the most
dangerous and subtle astrological in
fuences and they should protect their
minds from the chaotic thoughts OF
the world.
Dangers are foreshadowed for those
who experiment in spiritistic mani
festations and automatic writing. IN
sanity will greatly increase during the
next few months, 1t is prophesied.
The seers explain that the human
consciousness is peculiarly sensitive
to destructive forces at a time when
The aftermath of war Is affecting all
world interests and activities.
In this connection there Is great
peril from the perversion Of the high
est impulses Of humanity and there
should be a special effort to dwell
on the mental or spiritual plane OF
thought.
Persons whose birthdate it Is will
probably have a very active year in
business but ahey should be careful
to avoid litigation.
Children born on this day may meet
difficulties in life and they should
be carefully trained. They should
have supreme possibilities.
