Another Mouse Brought Forth.

Again has the Department of Justice OF the
United States government discovered the way
to lower the cost OF living. People are advised
to buy only the cheaper cuts of meat, and
thereby force down the prices on the balance
OF the carcass. Simplicity. Directly in line
with other nonitory and hortatory utterances
OF A. Mitchell Palmer and his coadjutors, as
they have CROPPED blindly about for some sort of
exit from the labyrinth into which they so
blithely entered a few months ago when they
announced determination to knock the stuffing
out Of the profteers. Up to now they have
only emitted such advice as is contained in the
dispatches from Washington, of Monday.
Bless Mr.. Palners innocence! Does he not
know that for many, many months Americans
have been eating the Cheaper" cuts of meat?
Not from choice, perhaps, but from necessity,
and most of the eaters are mighty glad to get
that. Has the Department Of Justice envisioned
the common people of the United States gorg-
ing themselves on porterhouse steaks, sirloin
roasts, and the other dainty bits of the high
priced corn-fed steer? Where do those experts
think the flank and the chuck, the neck and the
plate, the shin bone and the knuckle 60?
Not such long time ago the packers them
selves put up similar plea. If people only
would buy the cheaper grades, they might be
fed and hold down the prices. The public ac-
cepted this, studied up on ways Of cooking the
tougher but nutritious cuts, and got into the
habit Of buying them only to find the price
whooped accordingly as soon as the market
was established. And now the attorney gen.
eral of the United States saps his quest for
profteers with the stale advice that buying
cheaper things will lower prices.
The truth is apparent. Mr.. Palmer and Ills
gloNous company of district attorneys, special
assistants and the like, went hunting with
brass band and have come home without any
game. The high cost OF living is untouched by
his efforts. And his latest bit of advice is fit
only to go with his early promises, which have
proved worthless.

The Price of Sugar.

The Kansas City Star renders public
service by recalling the reason for the ab-
normally high price of sugar. We are forget
full people. The fact Of yesterday is often lost
in the new thing of today
The Star recalls that last summer the entire
Cuban stock of sugar was offered the United
States at price approximating 81 cents a
pound, which would have put it into American
homes at price not higher than IL cents a
pound. Immediately the sugar equalization
board, realizing the opportunity for our con-
sumers, recommended immediate acceptance of
the offer to the president. Their letter was
ignored. Three days later the Cuban offer was
Withdrawn. Na
This occurred not after the presidents
stroke, but when he was in full control Of his
physical and mental powers. Shortly after
American importers were paying Cuban pro-
ducers nearly twice the price their entire crops
could have been purchased for, and "sweeten-
ing" for American homes became more and
more expensive
Whence comes the fact that President Will
son is directly responsible for an enormous in
crease in the cost Of daily family necessity
He had Article X on the. brain. The needs
Of his own people did not interest him.

Predicting National
Prosperity

The best judges of the course OF business
events in this country are agreed that !! long
era of prosperity is ahead, and not far distant.
A public debt far larger than any of the past
has been Incurred, but the resources for paying
it are also far greater. Every former war debt
of the United States was paid in full without
serious delay. Why should the latest large as
it 10, be an exception with the richest and most
enterprising of nations? In foreign relations
we are more than ever before creditor people.
We lead in industry, especially in the agricul-
ture so vitality important We shall proceed as
always after q war to encourage production, to
practice wise economy, and to pay off the bill
lions whose expenditure was necessity in be-
half of civilization and free government. We
lead In farming, manufacturing and mining. Our
territory was not touched by the war. We had
to cross the ocean to get to the 'front.' Both
the great political parties were unit as to our
duty. We struck the line hard and success
fully.
What we have done is morally sound, and
this b the best basis for future and continued
prosperity. We went into the war disinter-
estedly, seeking no territory nor other gain OF
any kind for ourselves. Our motives were
honorable and generous, and we are ready
for peace of like nature. What, it is often
asked, might we not have accomplished with
$4,000 100000 spent for peaceful development
instead Of wari But 4 supine peace is dearer
than war Prophets of an unprecedented national
prosperity take into consideration the moral, as
well a. material, strength of our common coun-
hy.-St Louis Globe-D Democrat.

Secretary Bakers Responsibility.

The terrible indictment drawn by Congress-
man Frear against the heads of the war aircraft
production department may or may not be true.
1t may have been physically and intellectually
impossible for them to get results But we can
see no escape for Secretary Baker if the
charges against his subordinates are justified
He is the man who appointed Deeds, Potter
and Ryan to control aircraft production, all
without previous knowledge of it, to cover>one
of the gravest emergencies of the war They
did not could not do it, because compelled by
inexperience to grope their way through in
terminable experiments.
Secretary Baker ignored loggers and lumber
men, and selected penitentiary warden who
knew nothing about numbering, to control that
end of airplane production; and two copper
magnates and an exper. in the manufacture of
electric light machines and cash registers to
head fhe drive for quick production of wings
fer our airmen. How is it possible for him TO
escape the onus of the costliest failure Of the
war.

fectly formed and accurately proportioned wo-
man. A prize was offered and after much pub
licity in the shape of discussion of the merits of

Sargent. wanted, {. girl, who happened incident
ally to be one of Sargent's pupils, was found to
answer the requirements and received the prize.
What those measurements were probably no

the perfect girl were no more pleasing to the
eye than those originals had admittedly in
correct measurements public interest lapsed.
Even physical culture and conformity to the
measurements of Venus do not necessarily in
sure beauty. But if DR.. Sargent were to establish
another competition he would probably issue
set of figures somewhat different from the
first. For he is now quoted as saying that since

Three sticks, one 20 inches long
and two, each "a inches long, COM
prise the framework of a plain,

inch thick and 3s-inch wide and
should have a notch in each end.
Find the. exact center of each and
bind them together with cord at the
crossing, Then fasten a cord tightly
around from one stick to the next,
following the outside lines.
To cover the kite, lay it on a
sheet of light, strong paper, mark
and cut around about one inch ult-
side the string line, then lap the
paper over the string and paste
down. Belly bands for the kite line
should be strung from each corner
and brought together in front Of the
crossing. Hang the tail from cord
fastened to the two lower corners.

why thin BLOOD
MAKES thin BODIES

Thin, pale, anaemic men and
women are starving their blood.
They are simply not supplying to
the blood the oxygen, iron and cell
salts that the blood must have in
order to maintain the health and
vigor of the body.
The red blood cells and the white
blood cells are constantly warning
in the blood. If you starve the red
blood cells, which vitalize the blood
and build up the body, the blood be-
comes thin, and full of white blood
cells, and the body starves until it
becomes thin and emaciated, weak
and sick.
Healthy blood makes the entire
body healthy. Rich, red blood, vi
talized with oxygen, iron and the
celI-salts that Nature must have to
keep the body well, or make it well
if it is sick, will renew the strength
and restore vigor and vitality.
REOLO, the wonderful discov-
cry Of DR.. A. l.. REFUSING, rapidly
increases the number of red blood
cells, and supplies the oxygen, iron
and cell-salts that make rich, red
blood, vitalized with oxygen and
rich in the plasma and cell-salts
that nourish the cells of the body,
and restore strength and health.
REOLO is sold under the Positive
Guarantee that if it does not give
you renewed strength and energy
your money will be returned gladly.
Each package Of REOLO con-
tains 100 pleasant, tasteless tablets,
sufficient for two weeks treatment,
and only costs one dollar.
REOLO is sold in Omaha, Neb.,

BASIS FOR THE BONUS.

When the young men Of America, TO the
number Of four millions and over, gave up their
ordinary voeations, willingly or willy nilly, and
entered the military service of the republic they
were not serving themselves. Consciously or
unconsciously they were doing for others all
the things that were necessary to protect their
home land, and free the world from dreadful
fate. Most OF them never gave the matter
much thought. They were called, and they
went; they served cheerfully and they returned
happy in the thought that the war was over
and they would get chance to start anew
Things have changed materially since April,
1917. Soldiers who served for soldiers pay find
that they made more substantial sacrifice than
is easily calculated. Those who were exempt
military duty for any reason .prospered far
beyond those who took up arms at the nations
call
This inequality of reward should be over
come in some way. In other wars our country
was enabled to compensate the soldier out OF
the public domain. This is no longer possible.
Uncle Sam can not give each OF his nephews
farm, as he did fifty years ago. Recompense,
therefore, must be made IL at all from the pub
lie treasury.
The amount asked 10 not unreasonably large.
Justice and equity support the claim. A nation
that can carry ten billions Of losns to foreign
governments, that can subscribe hundreds Of
millions to relieve distress abroad, can we'll A.
ford to deal fairly BY its soldiers. The request
for bonus to ex-serviee men Is we'll founded,
and should not be denied.
