Now She's The Happiest
WOman-Always Ready
For Fun and Work

She was just like hundreds OF thou
sands OF women-prematurely aged
from overwork. Her hands were red
from the scrubbing board. Her Shout
ders dropped from bending over wash
tub. She had rheumatism from getting
wet while scrubbing clothes.
Now she is bright, happy and spark
ling. Her hands are white and soft
Her shoulders are straight and conf
dent looking, She seems years
younger.
How did she do It? BY washing In
the easy Clean Easy way. No more
miserable days for her. She lets Clean
Easy Naptholeine Wash Soap do all
the work
Why. just imagine the ease OF this:
She soaks the wash over night In
the morning she cuts up y bar Of
Clean Easy into - gallons OF water
and boils. As soon as the chips dis
solve, the clothes are put in and stirred
with stick for ten minutes. She
rinses, blues and dries. and the whole
washing is done-for only few cents!
With no mean work at ALL She is
away on happy day before her neigh
Dor has scrubbed half her clothes.
Every woman can be as happy and
contented as she is. Simply buy bar
Of Clean Easy from your grocer. Use
according TO directions. and you'll find
a new pleasure in clean things and a
new world for yourself.
Note how different Clean Easy looks
from other soaps-also how differently
1t works.

The Serious Plight of the United

By BILL PRICE.

The grave situation in the navy finally forcing leaders
of Congress to the conclusion if they do abandon
killing and niggardy economies the United States
be confronted with sastrousy weakened condition of the
fighting force upon which the country mainly depends in
the event of foreign aggression attack.
The trouble is due to the poor compensation paid to
officers and men, So many thousands of valuable have
left the navy that it is VIGOROUSLY known fact that
hundreds of costly vessels without with
a few men to care for them.
The dangerous part of the shortage is that it is the
skilled mostly mechanics who have left the navy But
of the ordinary deckhands 70 per cent boys under
twenty years of age The figures really alarming The
navy is today 10000 skilled short and the person
mel is being depleted fast skilled get out and

every department of the ships They really the back

tons must be HIGH who is minor officer Others and
whose daily work extends many hours gets approx
mately $25 per day for his first enlistment $83 per month
After twenty in the navy he will get $99 per month
The most money the highest paid enlisted possibly
send his family whom he often fails to for months at
tme is $70 Many chief petty officers cannot send home
over $4O Do you why the navy is being weakened;
These men receive far less pay than common laborers
The Kelley bill, which passed the House in January,
carried increased pay for officers and all enlisted The
Senate has also passed legislation along somewhat different
lines conference of the two houses the step
to handle the matter and provide legislation to

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAN Miss fAlnT ~.
Ash have read with great Interest
and have profited by. your good ad-
vice to others, l want you to ad-
wise me. too.
About q year ago I met a young
man, who has been calling upon me
regularly ever since. Several days
ago he wrote me that he was
through with me and that l must
not reply to his letter. As j have
tried my best not to offend him in
any way, i cannot imagine why he
should have written such a letter.
As love this fellow very much,
should like 10 know what I should
do.
Another young man, to whom /
was introduced yesterday, asked IL
he might call on me. but in view of
tho circumstances which ] have
stated above, I do not know whether
to consent or not. He Is most
courteous and affable fellow and OF
good family, and seems to admire
me. Your advice will be greatly
appreciated. BUDDY"
/ am puzzled that there is any
question in your mind what you
ought to do. When a young man
has given a girl her congo in such
a complete and brutal manner as
you describe, there doesn't seem to
be anything to do but to go to a
musical comedy and forget that
such a viper ever existed. l don't
like the sound of your phrase, "as l
love this fellow very much" How
in the name of all that's good and
sensible can you have any feeling
but contempt for a man who has
Offered you such an affront!
Erase him from your life just as
il YOU had never known him and
don't add your name to the num-
Der of girls who chase q man when
he has plainly demonstrated that
he is through.
AS to the other man, let your
own inclination dictate. You
might find him at least a pleasant
distraction, now that the other
man has gone out Of your life.

London, June 25th.-A possible new
policy OF dealing with The Irish situation
was fOreshadoWed today when the A.

mons that the Government had received
an offer of 5000 officers and added that
the offer was being carefully considered.
The English Liberal newspapers have
had rdmOurs that such q step was under
consideration and have expressed the
view that it would greatly infame Irish
animosity. The soldiers employed in Ire
land thus fal have been in regiments
from the British side Of the chaHHcI and
it was commented that the use of SOL
dlers from one Irish faction might re-
suit in a step towards civil war.
