Laundry marks vary greatly In BH-
rope. In Bavaria every piece has a
number stamped on it in large char
acters. In other parts of Germany
small cotton label is attached by
means Of hot waterproof adhesive.
In Bulgaria each laundry has large
number of stamps engraved with de-
signs, and in Russia the laundries
mark linen with threads worked in
arrow shapes. In some Russian towns
the police issue regulations for laun-
dries, while in Odessa books of marks
are furnished annually to the laundry
proprietors, and these marks and no
others may be used. By this system
criminals and revolutionary agitators
are often traced. Marks used in Eng
land consist of certain small letters or
figures stitched in red thread. In some
parts of France, linen is defaced by
having the whole name and address
of the laundry stamped upon 1t, and
an additional geometric design to in
dictate the owner. ..--..

been classed In that vast and familiar
category we have for certain OF our
population known as "all front and no

his desire for show beyond its COM
pass. Very pious were the missives
sent out to his mobiles, asking ASSIST
ance to meet the expenses OF MS
queens coronation and the celebration
Of his marriage festivities. His mo-
bles rallied to his aid, even though lG
was necessary for them to borrow 20
do it. An autograph letter Is In e1-
istence in which James begs "the loan
Of some silver spoons to grace his mar
rage feast" In another letter No
craved the loan of pair Of silk stock
ings from his dear Johnnie States (tha
earl Of Mari for his own royal wearing

Mr.. Editor:
Now, that the din of battle has ceased,
and the smoke has almost drifted away,
let us, like good citizens, rejoice; for
with Harding, Preus, Volstead and Dor
weller on deck the good ship of state
is safe and "all is we'll" Those horrible
ToWnleyites have received a good drub-
bling and have to crawl into their holes
Let us hope that the good rulers Of our
state, such as the steal trust, the grain
exchange, the financial powers and the
packers trust will seal up the holes in
which those Bolshevikis are hiding so
that we may never be disturbed by
them again.
It is so annoying for us to hear that
class of people advocating, sweeping
economical reforms and to listen to their
hard luck stories. It is so much nicer
and easier for us to sail down the good
old stream in the good old way. Just
imagine If those agitators had captured
the state what a Disgrace it would be
for us, we the refined, the privileged,

ment of q bunch Of farmers and lab
orers. Heaven forbid that such sad
fate may ever overtake us. For two
more years at least, we are safe. The
farmer will have to face us at our
prices and the laborer will have to do
our work at our dictation. True, great
many farmers like Corn Tassel sit in
their cow sheds and sulk and threaten
to sell their farms and join the parasite
class and the laborer doubles his fist and
says, Look out, but we should worry,
have we not the law and the executive
and the majority on our side and does
not the good book say words to the
effect?
HE that hath" (opulence and power
and wealthy ito him shall be given
and He that hath not from him shall

more let us all rejoice.
