the world when taken frequently in

large Quantities.
The suggestion Of the very. very
young officer that some Americans
would return to France to wed be-
cause Of the fortunes coming to wom-
en- through the death of male heirs is
an unworthy thought. If there are
such American soldiers our girls will
be we'll rid Of them.
The manhood Of the United States
would be in a sad state if their ideal
Of a wife was reduced to a woman
with a slavish desire to please and
with a large dot to bring her husband.
But let us take comfort in the fact
that the very young officer and his
very young informants T very
WRONG. The French girl is not as he
pictures her, nor is the American man
the Oriental fortune-hunter he is de-
scribedfto be.
We have no doubt thai the returned
soldier will have a kindly feeling for
the French girls (when he thinks of
them) for their many kindnesses in
their lonesome hours, but when it
comes to marrying will pick out a
good, Independent American girl
the kind the lads in khaki left behind
them when they sailed for wars. He
will find on his return that not only
does she surpass the girls Of the Old
World, but that she has become a
much more attractive and vital per-
son.-St. Louis Republic.

UNITED STATES MUST LEAD.

In the course Of a speech re-

opposes the League Of Nations,
Senator Hitchcock Of Nebraska,
recently said:
"When this war began, Of all
the great conquering empires
that the world had known, with
their might and their dream Of
conquest, only three remained.
Great Britain had become a dem
ocracy, practically; France had
become a republic, on the plan
Of our own great republic; Italy
had become constitutional mo-
narchy. The neutral nations
were Of similar character. OF
all the great nations Of history
dreaming Of conquest, three only
remained Russia, with her auto
crat and Ter plan Of conquest to
the Pacific ocean and down to-
ward the south; Austria-EIun-

OUR FABULOUS FOREIGN
TRADE.

The largest Of our banks has
made an interesting computation
to show that the war brought to
this country a large balance OF
export trade than in all the pre-
ceding life'of the republic. 1t
reckons the entire excess of ex-
ports over imports from the be-
ginning in 1890 down to August,
1914 as $9,007,000,000. In the
81 months of the war our trade
balance was $10,903,000, 900.
Before the war years trade
balance of 100000 was
record, and this balance had eX-
ceeded $600,000,000 but once be-
fore. For 1914, even with the
considerable shipments that inn
mediately set in when the war
was declared, this balance was
only $324,00O,000. AS is well
known. it was over $3,7000,000,-
GOO in 1917 and 1885, 100000
last year. This does not include
government shipments.
With this enormous credit bal
ance we bought back a great
quantity Of our securities held
abroad. That is to say, our for
cign customers were paying us
in our own stocks and bonds.
When their holdings of those
were practically exhausted they
had to borrow from us-that it,
they had to buy on credit. This
explains why our government
and our bankers loaned heavily
to the allies and elsewhere.
If we are to keep up this mag
nificent foreign trade we must
continue these loans, with heavy
forign investments, or the ma
tions Of Europe will have no
means Of paying us. They could
not pay in gold, but ii they
could not afford to let them do
it. because so much @old would
cause prices and the cost Of liv-
ing to soar to a height that
would make ever war prices look
slim.-Ncw York Tribune.

There's such thing as being too

remind me Of the new clerk in the
seed store. NV &
Some one just for a joke, asked
for some sweet potato seeds. The
clerk hunted all through the seeds
but could find no sweet potato seeds
and finally appealed to the boss.
THE latter explained that he was
being kidded and cautioned him
about not letting smart Alecks put
anything over on him.

the store and asked for some bird
