LOWER PRICES ARE
 NOT YET IN SIGHT
Retail Reductions Have Not Been Per- manent, Says tine federal Reserve
 BOard.

Washington, June 30.-Lower price levels are not yet in sight, according to the monthly review of business conditions issued today by the Federal
 Reserve Board. The wave of price re-
 ductions which swept through the re- tail stores of the country, the board says, has failed to have a permanent effect in the reduction of the high cost of living.
 The volume of retail trade has continued large, due in part to the movement for reductions in retail
 prices which commenced in May, says the board. While the movement was aided by refusal of the public to pay the high prices prevailing, as well as to the difficulties in financing high priced stocks, counter balancing fac tor has been found in the tendency of wholesale prices in large measure to be maintained at current levels, and the opinion has been expressed that the price reduction sales in many cases involved merely anticipated of the GUS tomary mid-season clearance sales Ill New York it is reported that retail trade after early stimulus of price re- auctions, relapsed into the dullness which was manifest in April, the con- sumer to large degree returning to his waiting attitude
 Commenting on the business condi- tions in the Chicago Federal Reserve district, the board says that discrim- ination against unessential and specu- lative borrowing and reduction in the volume of commodities offered for shipment, are operating to relieve the credit situation. Savings accounts are growing in the Chicago district, the board says. Much money is still tied up in inventories, but there is some indication of decided improve ment in conditions.

Was Borrowed Midd,ino

Gen. Robert E. Lee was a frugal man. His ordinary dinner consisted of head of cabbage boiled in salt water and pone of corn bread. It is told that on one occasion number of gentlemen had an appointment to dine with the Confederate warrior. General Lee had ordered his servant to provide a repast of cabbage and middlings. A very small bit of mid ding garnished the dish when it was brought in; so small was it, in fact, that the guests were stricken with un- due politeness and each in turn de- clined it. and the middling remained on the dish when the dinner came to an end and the guests arose to go. Next day the general, remembering the untouched middling. ordered his negro servant to serve it up for dinner. The negro hesitated, scratched his head and at length said: You see, Marse Robert, de fac am this: that theah middlin' vase borrowed middlin', and Is done give it back to the man wheah I got it fun."

sired a couple ot more bedrooms can be partitioned off, or the space used for storage. The height of the roof also will tend to keep the house cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
 The basement extends under the whole house, with the exception of the sun parlor. It is reached by stairs leading out of the kitchen and, as the whole building is 40 by 26 feet, there is plenty of room for the heating plant, the fuel storage room, t iaun- dry and stSrage rooms for fruits, veg etables and lawn and garden tools.
 From this brief description. it will be realized that this house is one that will appeal to the head of large family who wants to build a home to house them comfortably and at the same time has not large amount of money to invest. The rooms are many but are arranged so that the work of caring for the home can be done with the smallest expenditure of energy. Every convenience and comfort are provided for.
 Such home as this in these days of high rentals would be held at such figure that it truly is cheaper to build than pay rent" The first thought of the architect who designed this home was to give the home owner the maximum amount of space, and a comfortable and handsome home at the least possible cost.

BOUND TO DELIVER SPEECH
Guest at Banquet Must Have Some. what Astonished the Rest of
 the Gathering.

There was to be banquet at ar Indianapolis church and one of the parishioners felt sure that he would be called on for a speech. Realizing how poor he was at impromptu speeches he accordingly made ready for this occasion by writing one and then memoriZing it.
 Tine night of the banquet came and after rehearsing his speech to his proud wife the parishioner went to church, elated over his forethought The crowd assembled and gathered around the table. And then-then the minister called on the parishioner to say grace"
 For minute he was appalled-alsO his wife. But bravely he rallied and began to compose a grace. He gave one sentence, hesitated and then, to his wife's horror, plunged into the middle of his speech. He finished it, too. Of course every one was amazed, his wife most of all, for you see he even used his practiced gestures.

1 WILL HONOR EARLY PRINTER
Anniversary of Birth of Christophe Plantin to Be Appropriately Con-
 neE1orated in August.

The four hundredth anniversary of the birth of Christophe Plantin, the noted French printer of the sixteenth century, will be commemorated with appropriate ceremonies in Antwerp during August. Plantin was a son of Belgium only through adoption. He was born somewhere in historic Touraine.
 It was the peculiar achievement of Plantin to bring honor and glory to the printers trade in the days of Its infancy. With keen appreciation of the beauties of literature, Plantin delighted in perfecting his workman ship in order that these beauties might be published in the most at tractive form possible, although his tools were those of common work man. His chef-d'oeuvre was the fa- nous Bibia polygotta-published in 1569-1573-an attempt at scientific revision of the text of the Old and New Testaments It was published In the Greek, Hebrew, Syrian and Chal- dean languages. AS result of this monumental work Plantin received from King Philip of Spain the title 'prototypographus regius," and the right to print all the liturgical books for the states embraced in King Phil ip's far-fung empire.

Electrical Sterilization.

In new report on electrical steril- izatiOn, Professor Beattie and Lewis of Liverpool university, concluded that milk can be freed from disease germs without heating above 40 degrees to 147 degrees Fahrenheit. At this low temperature, the state of the milk is not altered and it's properties seem to be in no way impaired, while the elec- trfc treatment greatly increases the time of keeping. The tests were made with two types of apparatus, different degrees of current and several quail itjes of milk.

Important to all Women
 Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease.
 If the kidneys are net in healthy con- dition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased
 You may suffer pain in the back, head ache and loss of ambition.
 Poor health makes you nervous, irrita- ble and may be Respondent; it makes any one so.
 But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions.
 Many send for sample bottle to see what Swamp Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder medicine, will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., you may receive sample size bottle by Parcel Post. You can purchase medium and large size bottles at all drug stores.-Adv.

 From an exterior standpoint this home leaves little to be desired. It suggests the Colo0ial type of archi- lecture in that it has an entrance placed in the center, with the Coioni- al balance at either side. The large sun parlor at one end is modern addition that is found iii all present day good homes.
 The house is rectangular in shape, which means that it can be erected at the minimum of cost At the same time the roof is so designed that the plain effect of this shape of house is taken away. The building is of frame construction, set on a concrete foun- dation to grade and brick founda- tion walls to the first floor sill. Above the walls are covered with stucco over either wood or metal iath or some one of the patented stucco boards. The brick foundation walls and the brick porch and sun par Tor pillars add to the attractiveness of the exterior.
