 word for the profiteer, or in other words let me see if can help to dis entangle the legs of that old man of the sea known as H. c. I. from the neck of the l.. s. P. have been one of the loudest shouters agaist this little old man and have claimed that the sore in the soaring prices hurt my class-the man with the pre-war in come-more than any other, or did un til I commenced to figure how really am coming out. I find I am not broke yet, and wonders upon wonders, l seem to have more money than I ever had in the easy going days of the past. I now look upon eighteen-dollar shoes twe1ve-dollar hats, one hundred dollar suits, twenty-fve-cent sugar and eighty cent lamp chops. ct cetera, ct cetera ad 1ibitum, with the comp1acency of Omar Khayyam or an old man in the poorhouse. High prices trouble me not in fact they seem to have helped me swell my always modest and some times shrinking bank account. Many things which I did when prices were lower I now do not at all and this means a great saving to. me.

From "Sight-seeing in Petersburg a
 Century Ago." edited by Stewart Gull
 in, in Asia.
 Our first sightseeing adventure in the capital took us to Washifuitsuke Vasilyewskiy), an island across the Neva- which is a great river flowing through Petersburg. On this island in an enclosure guarded at the gate by watchman, a large audience had as sembled to attend an exhibition. Over the center of the plaza moved un- steadily a huge ball, affixed to a boat which people both sides were bod ing down by ropes. It seemed to be made of waxed silk, and to be filled with wind, and swayed violently as if it would leap skyward had the men released the ropes.
 Very soon man and woman entered the boat, and waving flags, addressed the crowd as if to say This is so ex- traordinary a machine, you must all be interested. Look! Lool1i We are going to fly!' Then the men who held the ropes loosened them from the boat, and following the bag, it went up and up, while the enraptured multitude gazed at it from afar. We could not understand the machinery of the boat, for we saw it only at a distance. It seems that a woman was always re- quired to ride in the boat, perhaps be- cause only a woman was able to han dle it's machinery. The big bag ap- peared to be tied to the boat with cords. If nothing prevented they should be able to fly to Moscow, 700 miles, We did not learn the use of this flying ball, which the people called shari, name that is applied to anything round like a ball.
 The Lure of Orchid Farming From An Orchid of Asia, by Edna Worth
 ley Underwood in Asia.
 You'll learn things when you get to your estate and settle down to orchid farming! Strange things-whch you wouldn't listen to m fairy tale!'
 What do you mean?"
 q can't explain! And that's the strang- est thing of all But you'll find out for is your own. And you are young-and good to look at" He noticed as he spoke that the face of d'Entrecolles had the golden pallor of those whose ancestors have lived in hot lands. "T shouldn't be a bit surprised-if you found out!''
 What has youth to do with it?''
 Youth? Everything! They are a queer lot-these orchids. They have likes, dis likes, nerves, passions. And then, you like them differently from the way in which like them. My interest has been purely scientific. You are nearer to them q Entrecolles! The other day you were standing under that purple hybred down there-the one with the mouth of color of fresh blood and little white ripples along the edge like angry teeth-and I said to myself, 'd'Entrecolles does not look out of place among them.

Lesson in
OPTOMETR Y

Explain further why a patient
must get used to glasses in some
cases before comfort IS secured.
Where the muscles of the eyes
have for years labored against an err
ror of vision, they have in "a sense
become used to the work of trying
to overcome the error. When glasses
are worn this duty is taken from
the eyes and the muscles have to
adjust themselves to the new con-
ditions. This adjusting process
causes the patent more or less dis
tress as a rule, but by exercising
the necessary patience perfect com
fort is secured.
An error of vision that is i'm
portant enough to be corrected.
should be KEPT corrected, should
it not?
Yes, an error of vision IS cor
rected only when the glasses are
worn. The minute the glasses are
removed from the eyes the error
ceases to be corrected and for that
reason the patient should diligently
strive to become accustomed to hi:
glasses, N order that he may deriv,
the necessary benefit from them.

SILkS-Artifcial Fiber
Production Increasing

Steps are being taken in this country
and Europe to increase the worlds sup
ply of artificial silk. Not only are new
factories being erected, but additions
are being made to existing plants both
here and in England, Belgium, France
and Switzerland. The high price Of
real silk has been a large factor in
squirting the manufacturers of the arti-
fetal fibre to greater efforts Refine
ments in the process of making artifi-
clal silks have resulted in improved
quality and the spinning of finer warns
than heretofore. This is leading to a
wider use of the yarns in fabrics for
which it has been considered too coarse.
Manufacturers of artificial silk stock
ings and sweaters in many cases report
the demand for these products exceeds
those of real silk. which is highly ex-
renslre in comparisons
Producers of real silk fabrics assert
that artificial silk does not compete
With their products, but is making an
Increasingly larger place for itself.
Experiments have been conducted by
yarns along the line Of rug and tap
estry weaving and In other products
which have not been exploited because
OF the restricted output during the last
few years.
Wood pulp from Finland and the
Scandinavian countries, which was not
available during the war, is understood
to be more available. In addition to
wood pulp cotton linters also are used
as the base for artificial silk.

Worry GRAY Goods Users
