HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

To relieve neuralgia; Apply a hot bag of sand to part affected.
 Carbolic acid is a good disinfectant, but useless unless diluted with at least 90 times it's bulk of cold water.
 If the hair is dry and brittle. give 1t a good application of vaseline or pure olive oil on the scalp the night before shamneeing.
 When the weather is hot: Eat light ly and not too much meat. Avoid ex- cessive drinking of ice water. Be care ful about the use of stimulating bev- erages. It is not true that a stimulat- ing drink is always a cooling drink. Keep in the shade as much as possible. If you are in the sun and feel the heat gripping you. seek a shady spot and rest immediately.
 To keep the finger nails clean and white, a bottle of pure olive oil. soap and water should be on every wash stand. About one tablespoon of liquid soap to an eight-ounee bottle of water. Add ta blesncon of peroxide of hy- drogen. Keep an orange stick handy, and after each washing of the. hands dip the orange stick into the bottle and rub the stick around under the nails. It will both cleanse and bleach the nails.

THE IMMIGRATION PUZZLE

The question of immigration is aI- ways a live one. Before the war as well as since there was much said on the matter of regulation. The iteraey test has been put into effect and still there is a demand for further restric- tions- The feeling prevails that there should be a curtailment in the number of those who are admitted to the country and yet at the same time it cannot fail to be observed with the conditions what they are. with thou sands of people going back to the old country and with the need for more labor if there is going to be an in creased production, that we must look te some extent to those who come from other countries to relieve the situation.
 There are those who have proposed the shutting off of immigration entire ly for a certain period of time, while others have urged the cutting down of the number admitted so that only

KEEP AFTER THE BROTHERS.

This is a big country and it has a large population. It requires a great quantity of supplies to take care of the daily needs of the consumers and some provision has to be made to see that the demands are met from day to day. Every man, woman and child expects to get about three square meals a day and for the most part they look for the regular channels of business to provide it. And in this connection we know that the country is steadily growing. The demands are greater from year to year, mean ing of course that larger provisions must be made for supplying the de- mands as the months roll by.
 But regardless of this situation and regardless of the need of maintain ing a supply that will be sufficient to take care of the demands. it is per fectly apparent that there should be no teleration of the cornering schemes that are put into operation not for the purpose of seeing that the require ments of the consumers are met but to boost prices and to force everyone who eats to contribute te the rapid turning out of get-rich quick Walling lords.
 The steps which are being taken at the present time by the federal and state authorities to take food supplies that are being hoarded by spectators, big business housesS and other in dividuals should have been started months ago. Instead of indicating policy of toleration of such holding and profteering action should have been taken that would have bristled with Encouragement. Cold storage houses have been shown to be of as great value to the country as the ice box is to the home but they have likewise been found to be open to gross misuse. and whenever such IS disclosed it is time for a rebuke that amounts to more than a slap on the wrist. Those who are holding up1 foodstuffs and have been doing so for riany months when the consumer IS the result is being made to pay an 1njustifed price for his daily bread should be made examples of The thing to do is to keep after the pro- hIeers regardless of the goods he deals

THE SECOND VETO.

No other action was anticipated than that which has been taken by Presi- dent Wilson il vetoing for a second time legislation intended to bring about a repeal Of the daylight sr.ing law. Persistent as has been the ef- fort to take this law of the statute books. there is no evidence that it represents the desire of a majority of the people in spite of the fact that tt has received q majority in congress each time The matter has 5ec:I present. ed.
 Everything points to the fact that it is being used fer political benefit re- gardless of the effect that the repeal would have upon the whole country and regardless of the great amount of good that it has done and will con- tinue to do as long as it is retained.
 The president in refusing to approve the bill for the second time fully ap- preciates the injustice that would be involved at a time when theTe is a great and growing need fer increased production, and when, ever though the war is over. the country has just as good reason as ever for eliminating needless waste.
 In spite of the fact that this new attempt to defeat daylight saving stands on it's own feet instead Of being made a rider to an important appro- priation measure, there is just as much reason, judging it on it's merits why those same members of congress who refused to override the previous veto should do the same thing Q second time. It isn't legislation for few but legislation that will be of benefit to the many that is wanted and such will be secured through the sustaining of the veto rather than through overriding it. We may not like to follow Europe but this is an instances where it is for our interests to do so.

DICTATES OF FASHION.
 All lace frocks are being shown in color.
 Pinked tafreta ruchings are being in troduced.
 Lace and chiffon parasols are wcrn with 1ace and georgette-

 Many of the extremely low recks are now being yelled with tulIe.
 A sailor of tan pineapple straw. mushroom shape, is smart.
 hat made entirely of organdie will complete the summer outfit.
 A frock of white organdie is trim med with>red and blue braid
 A smart little dress of ivory tussah strongly suggests pannfers.
 For gardening is a dress of gay striped chintz and white organdie.

"A TRoussEAu FUND.

A treusseau fund in place of a hope chest is the proper equipment Of the modren girl Fashions in linens as well as clothes change so quickly that storing away money. which increases itself by adding interest. instead of ac- cumuiating a questionable outfit, is real preparedness for the up-to-d date bride. Thrift and war savings stamps offer an ideal method for acquiring a treusseau fund. Thrift stamps cost a quarter each and 16 of them plus a few cents are exchangeable for war saw ings stamp. paying over per cent. interest.
 t'Nothing to show for it. Is descrip- tive of that great swamp which ab- sorbs thoughtiessly spent pennies. nickels, dimes and quarters. The swamp can be drained and made into fertile land by planting the pennies. nickels, dimes and quarters in thrift and war savings stamps.
 Treat your money as friend. By showing consideration of it's value in carefully spending it and avoiding all waste, some will stick by you. to be invested in war savings stamps.

 a fixed percentage of those here and naturaHzcd would be allowed to come in.
 Many oe the bills have features which are comrnendable, though they also have provisions which would be certain to get strong opposition. Sem ator Dillingham; of Vermont is the advocate of a measure that would permit admittance to five per cent. of those already here from foreign ccun- tries. This would mean the treatment of India. China and Japan the same as other countries and according to the bill there would be no restrictions on those counties i'll the western hemisphere.
 An analysis of this plan shows that it would be possible for more from western Europe to come in than came during the five years before the war but only about third of those who came from southern and eastern Europe, while from the orient the number would be very small and the tendency would be to encourage those who are the more desirable and re- strict those who are less adapted to our civilizatio It is only one of the many plans but it should get the con sideration it deserves ir solving the immigration puzzle.

OTHER VIEW POINTS

Still it would be most intresting to knew what General Hiss did have to say about the Shantung agreement, even if it did cantain references to other governments Perhaps the old war horse thought he was operating under 'sopen covenants. openly arriy- ed at."-New Haven Journal Courier President Wilson's attempt to tie his baby, the League of Nations, to the railroad situation and to the isticalfy insincere and unfair.
 Senator. Ledge pointed out the fal- lacy Of the reasoning, when he show ed that only one country has ratified it and our action at this time is not material. But that is only incidental.

RIDING TO A FALL.

Though he may not like to. Car ranza must admit that trouble is pill ing up for him and his country, and that though he may have passed through some storm periods and is inclined to boast of his accomplish ments as tending to reestablish peace in the republic to the south it is to a large degree offset by the develop ments that are taking place.
 Carranza has ridden high horse. In spite of all that has been done for Mexico by this country and all that has been done for Carranza by the present administration. he still main tains the same naughty, stubborn dis position that has characterized him from the start. He shows a disposi- tion to disregard the rights and prop erty of Americans. The fact that hundreds of Americans have been murdered in his country within the past few years doesn't give him any concern. He is basking in the sun shine of that well known statement that we are pursuing policy of watchful waiting toward his country and probably chuckles every time a finger is shaken at him when he thoroughly understands that it should be fist.
 Following the publicity regarding the state departments threat of a radical change of policy toward Mexi- co comes the announcement that the British charge of archives, the only representative of that country in Mexico. has been ordered to leave and the Claim that Carranza is angry be- cause it has been declared in the Brit ish house of aPmmeHs that his govern ment had not been recognized because it does not and is not willing to fur nish a guarantee of protection te Brit ish subjects and their properties,
 Carranza doesn't like criticism and particularly so when it is honest He doesn't like to be told what he must do even though it involves the friend ly relations with other countries, but if he would but stop. look and listen he cannot fail to realize that the con tinuance of his policy simply means an early end and the fact that he has insisted upon riding highhorse will simply make the fall all the greater,
