Another Fountain Of Youth.

DR.. Serge Voronoff, the enterprising
Russian scientist who made the extraor-
dinary discovery that an interstitial
gland detached from a monkey and
grated on q man would make septua-
genarian act like twenty, is out with q
fresh disclosure that will cause fiutter-
ing-this time in the dovecotes.
DR.. Voronoff-Russian for raven e
sons credited in Paris dispatch with
the announcement that by the same
simian method of regeneration he hopes
to be able to give woman of sixty the
face of girl of twenty.
But there is drawback to this boon
offered to the feminine seekers after
youthful beauty in mature years. 1t is
contained in DR. Voronoff's warning that
after taking the treatment limited at by
him, the woman of sixty will revert to the
face of twenty, but that her body will
still remain sixty years old
We don't know how much Of truth there
is in the newest discovery credited to
DR. Voronoff. But of one thing we are
fairly sure. And that is that the only
certain way for woman-or a man,
either-to extend the appearance and the
vigor of youth into middle life and old
age is to keep up the thoughts, the illu-
sions and the responsiveness of youth;
and above all, to harbor kind thoughts
and charitable feelings.
There are plenty Of white-haired women
who have the face of youth. BY keeping
in contact with life, by keeping their
hearts and minds open, and by keeping
their spiritual eyes upon the things that
are kindly, gentle and sweet, they have
grown into the physical beauty of happy
old age.

Traction Fare Decision Still Waits.

The local Traction Company is waiting
with good grace on the Public Utility
Commission for a reply to the application
to be permitted to increase trolley line
fares from seven TO eight cents. The
commission has had several months TO
consider the Traction Company's request,
and the latter's insistence that conciu-
sion be reached within the next few days
is entirely reasonable.
According TO the figures submitted by
the company, it is obvious that with the
big advance in the cost Of everything
entering into the operation Of the lines,
that the receipts have fallen far short OF
meeting the actual operating expenses,
and the directors of the company are
quite right in their position of insisting
that they know now and precisely what
they may count on in order to determine
the future fate or policy Of the concern.
There cannot, in fairness to the COM
pany and to the public, be an excuse for
further delay; promptncss now is vitality
urgent
1t is recalled that there is vacancy IN
the Utilities Board, which normally con-
sists of five members, and it may be IN
ferred that the body is deadlocked on the
company's application for an increase.
This is the only inference deducible from
the Utilities Board not having announced
its decision long ago. The duty Of filing
the vacancy falls TO Mayor Taylor. II
he is awake to the necessity OF immediate
action he will at once pick another MEM

LET US NOT FORGET.

Two years ago today, July 15i the
American forces in France began their
counter-Offenslve at Chateau Thierry
which halted and threw back the German
advance. We recall this event not with
any purpose of reechoing the nauseating
chatter, now happily fallen silent, about
chow America won the war" We do re-
call the day with pride as one to whose
memory every American must always thrill
because it was the day on which America S
soldiers took their first notable part to-
gether with the Allies in opening the at
victory.
Now, two years afterward, we find
ourselves almost dissociated from the
friends of those days and engaged really
in settling in general election what we as
Americans propose to do about the victory
which we In common with the Allies then
gained. In the first week of November,
almost exactly two years from the day of
GermaDy's hnal admission of defeat and the
conclusion OF the amistice, we shall take
nationwide vote which will determine
largely what is to be our attitude as a
nation toward the issues then left unset
tied and the obligations disregarded and
denied until now. The clarity of purpose
and the unity of will which exalted and
made bright those days have been tragical-
ly obscured. Ii is for us now, In the an
niversary of tha 4 period of mutual triumph
to recreate the determination which then
gave us power and to rededicate America
to the ideals which then gave the world
hope.

Banking IT the Peak.

sntly high level of bank extension, the
second highest in the eomptroller's tabu-
lations, has been visible in the sacrifice
of holdings of shoes, clothing and the

THE yAPANI Sc PROBLEM.

The japanese problem may not be a
local issue On the Pacific coast At any
rate. it cannot be decided locally, because
the relations Of Japan are with the United
States and not with California. Tn
doubtedlythe American people, like the
Australian people, are opposed to Asiatic
immigration. But there has b.en a large
Japanese emigration from the Pacific
coast, and it ought to be very-clear that
the net immigration is seriously large
before the coast involves the whole coun-
try in a quarrel with foreign nation. At
the peace conference, when the Japanese
delegates were pressing their racial equal
ity" stipulation, which they did not sue
ceed in getting into the peace treaty, they
disclaimed any desire to force Japanese
immigration upon any foreign country.
The immigration under the restrictions
agreed on by Japan and America does
not seem TO be great enough to justify
the proscriptive measures demanded by
California. hiladelphia Record.

Dry Agent Boycc has gotten INTO action

violating its provisions is zoo severe TO
warrant the risk they are taking.
II may be remarked that reports OF raids
in various parts Of the country have shown
that almost all the law infractions are
committed by men whose names Indicate
that their wearers are not American-born
citizens. Our own people, with the pos

some of the southern States and workers
in the lumber camps of the northwest as
