 In an effort to improve the disas- trous exchange rate. Germany has i'm posed rigid import regula tions, it-was pointed out, but as executive decrees change the lists from time to time. the market is left in a state of uncer- tainty.
 As regards exports. officials of the state department and the department of commerce said Germany had no great stocks of goods tC sell at sthis time Fear that quantities of potash would be dumped in America have not materialized it was said.
 The state department has not for warded any instructions to Ellis I=Crins exchange of notifications and he was described as working under Amb,sssa : dor Wallace at Paris.

Reservations Only
 Americanized Pact
 Declares Dr. Tryon

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 31.-An examina- ton of the covenant of the league of nations shows that, as qualified by the league reservations, it has simply been America nized. Dr. James L. Tryon of the Massachusetts Institute Of Technology told the American Associ- ation for the Advancement of Science here today.
 Under these circumstances, it is a question:" said Dr. Tryon, whether from the point of view of those who prefer the covenant to the historic American plan offered by the Ameri- can Institute of International Law, or to any other plan, there has not been a first-class mistake made in opposing the Lodge resolutions and one that it may take years to correct.
 We can not remain in isolation. We could not separate ourselves from the rest of the world if we would. We shall do our duty in any case. And let no country think that because we hesitate over the covenant we shall refrain from intervention in the inter vention in the interest of our country and the welfare of the world if the same or similar set of circumstances, the unjustified invasion of Belgium and France, should occur again. But we want the right to attend to our own affairs and are willing to con cede the same privileges to other na- tions."

 Smithsonian Universal African
 Expedition.
 PRIESKA, South Africa.--frying to find a real African Bushman, a full bIooded aborigine of a disappearing tribe, is like searching the missing link.
 They've either been killed off-for the early Boer settlers used to shoot them like baboons and capture their chil dren for slaves-or they have lost their identity through racial inter marriage.
 AnthropoIog1cal experts of the Smithsonian African expedition start them only in museum plaster eases until we reached Prieska.
 Here, where the Orange river skirts the outlying precincitS of the great Kalahari desert-once the home and the refuge of the Bushman-we found the nearest approach of a real type.
 And he is said to be the only sur vivor of the natives that accompanied Livingston on his famous missionary journeys through Africa.
 His name is Jantje. Pronounce it about like Yankee" and you've got it.
 That means Little John." His real name is Jan Matroos. And he is lit tle-almost a pygmy, like the true Bushman.

 That old fellow lives in a tin house that looks exactly like a dog kennel In architecture" it really is a Ken nel, out ins the back yard of the more pretentious home of a family of ma lives occupying a higher place in SO ciety than Jantje does.
 The kennel is no more than three feet high, of about the same width and about five feet long. It's a rickety wooden frame covered with flattened gasoline cans. The tenant has to get down on his hands and knees and crawl through the tiny door to get into his combination parlor- bedroom
 Outside is his kitchen" a flat stone on which he makes wood fire. His sole kitchen utensil is a bIackened kettle. His food is the government ''mealie meaf' twhite cornmeal) day with ounce of salt and a Slew ounces Of fat

PENTHOUSE JOHN' OR 'HINKY DINK' WHICH

Which will it be, "HinlSy Dink" or Lighthouse John?" That question does not mean a great deal in most sections of the country, but in Chicago political circles it has caused much speculation ever since 1t became known that the Seward plan with one all derman to the ward had carried in the election. displacing the present 55- ward division of the city with two al dermen to the ward.

HAVE you a beauty secret shared

HAVE you a beauty secret shared
 only by 8 little cretonned dresser in your boudoir?
 If you are a woman you have.
 The secret we wager has to do with toilet preparations-the cream used to remove the tiny, clinging dust specks that work deep into the skin, the powder that takes away the shiny appearance, the rouge that lends just the necessary touch of color and the refreshing toilet water! Knowing women's ways, more or less, we can truthfully say that any one of these would make an acceptable Christmas gift not forgetting to add perfume which like the other toilet necessaries is a preparation of Mrs. Hawthorne A.

period-whence or why no one seems to remember. AS he grew up, slender, blue-eyed, blond and soft spoken, he developed a magnetic personality that drew politicians about him and a fund of practical common sense that made them listen to his suggestions.
 When he grew beyond the bootblack and newsboy age he invested his sav- ings in a saloon-the obvious way to wealth and power in those days, He made 1t the largest saloon in Chicago, and gave 1t a name that attracted the workingmen and proceeded to get himself elected alderman. He was a personal friend to everyone in the ward who showed disposition to re- ciprocate. He looked after the sick and the needy and it is said that mo- 1 body, whether a voter in the ward or not, ever appealed in vain to ''Hinky 1 Dink" for genuinely needed aid. He ] was always immediately dressed and l his general appearance was about as ] far removed from the ward boss of the ] cartoons as could be imagined.
 Coughan was Kenna's opposite in every way. Heavy of build, with black eyes under beetling brows, d ! heavy, black mustache and a mop Of bristly hair that stuck up in an ag- gressive pompadour. His sarorial ideas ran to cheeks and vivid stripes
 He, too, grew up in the streets of the first ward, selling newspapers and
 doing odd jobs until he graduated into
 a rubber in a Turkish bathhouse
 which he later bought, from which hC
 derived the nickname that has gone
 abroad. He had a natural bent for the

 Naturally it was not long before the two bosses recognized the fact that

their talents could do good team work and they formed a partnership. "Hinky Dink' furnished the brains of the com bination and "Bathhouse" the motive power. They divided the proceeds of the ward as they pleased, collected tribute in every quarter and smiled at the efforts of the reformers who perennially sought to dethrone them. Occasionally when the pressure of public opinion became too strong to be ignored they yielded gracefully aud modified their methods to suit the times.
 A notable example was the chang ing of the annual first ward ball" into a concert" a few years ago. The ball, which was an ancient and accepted means of raising campaign funds in the ward and incidentally enriching the personal coffers of the bosses, had de- generated into an orgy that even the first ward couldn't stand for. The po- lice threatened raids and the hall where it was held was more than ance the target for dynamite bombs. So the name was changed, but it is Said that those who attended didn't notice any difference in the action.
 The private life of the two partners has been as different as their persona appearance And therein their various biographers have found additiona cause for wonderment over their fast and lasting friendship. Kenna has beer ! a world traveller and patron of the arts. Couglin's leaning has been to the rougher sports and his longest triI away from Chicago is said to have beer

If some little thing" is to be the selection, or if a more elaborate gift in keeping with the Yuletide spirit the holiday shopper ex- hibits the same care in the purchase. At the Graves Indian Shop, which has been rightly termed the House of the Thousand Gifts, we found scores of cases being unpacked revealing ex- quisitely artistic novelties of metal in laid with silver. Charming vases and candlesticl1s, clever desk sets, distinc- tive tobacco jars, odd trays, in fact all the novel holiday fancies but unusual in their artistic makeup. Discrimi- natingly selected, their decorative value and their great charm of form and color in addition to their useful ness make of them the gifts ideal

WHEN we were little fellows we
 were told to take care of the pen- nies and the dollars would take care of
 themselves. It made a rather lasting
 impression which has had its influence
 in our later shopping days, and led us
 to do our buying where we rould in
 deed look to our pennies. We have found that we have been able to save quite a few ceuts on practically every article we have purchased from J. c. Penny and company. Even the staple things are there for less money than at other shops. There is satisfaction, too, | in being able to buy not one thing at
 a bargain but all our needs at A reduced 1 price. J. C. Penny and company is es- i tablished at Third avenue and Wash 1 ington street.

fact, they rather encouraged opposition formers made to dislodge them. In for 1t gave them publicity and they were sure of their hold on their con- stituency so that the outcome at cleo tion was the least of their worries.
 Even the coming of woman suffrage caused only a temporary ripple of un- easiness in the first ward. There was woman candidate for alderman and she made a strong campaign. She ap- pealed to the women voters with prom fses to put the barrel house ring out Of business. and her election looked cer- tain. But when the votes were counted at the end of election day it was found that the women had voted for the old order in about the same proportion as the men always had.
 And so "Hinky Dink" and Bath house John" are still running their ward in the same old way, modified, of l course, to conform in whatever de- gree is expedient to the requirements | of the "dry" amendment. They have both grown rich and they're both get ting along toward the retiring age, and one or the other must quit perforce as aldermen. Wherefore Chicago poliu- clans and newspapers are wondering
 which will step out-just how far theh ! friendship will carry them-Or whether
 they will decide to stick together as friends and both give way to some outsider, so that there can be no ex-
 cuse for 8 quarrel over patronage.
