 Other sights that brought exclamatons rom the three in the tourist party we are interested in were: Ice cream carts in the streets, a troop of boys from school playing along streets where wobbly walls might fall on them at any moment; gay shanties with high sounding names where Jewelry or gingerbread is sold; the pro- fusion of signs advertising sightseeing trips and chambers for travellers, paI..v- ularly American travellers; the New The atre, that looks like the Coliseum of Rome, completely gutted but with two golden Tyres still shining in front and a cafe of the New Theatre already opened in one battered corner; a garden conserv- atory, glass all broken, with a mob of vegetation fighting inside hundreds of signs of property to sell and the cracked shell of once ornamental building still faintly identifiable as American Kur- Saal."

 The young school teacher from Kansas looked hard at the Ohio banker for a moment, weighing him in goldsmiths scales.
 Yes. she finally agreed with a safely abandoned smile. "She is what we might call back home a baby doll, n-est-ce pas?'
 "Oui, but charming Wouldn't she give an inch of that paint on her lips to com- prennay what we're sayng?''
 There was a decided stir in the direc- ton of the gay young Parisenne. She leaned forward, patted her ear bobs and looked at the two from Kansas and Ohio with troubled frown.
 Say, how do you get that way?' she demanded I'm from Philadelphia my self. Back home I'd probably want to bite your ears off, but I'll let it pass. Over in these foreign wids we all love each other, we Americans, don't we?"
 She gave the Ohionan's coat sleeve gentle little push and vamped one knee over the other.

Armistice Day

Armistice day still finds world
in foment. Two years after the
cessation of hostilities in the great
war the dove of peace is still
endeavoring to find a nesting place
among men.
In France and England solemn
! observance of tie mcmentuus oc-
casion when theguns We're siienced
on the western front was made
Beneath the Arc de Triumphe the
French laid to rest the remains of
an unknown poilu; in Westmin-
ster Abbey the English placed
| the bones of an unknown Tommy
to repose forever amid the dust of
princes and prelates, kings and
nobility. Thus do these nations
pay tribute to the private soldier
who fought and won the great war,
who received no glory, who died
for duty.
If it lie the purpose of France
and England to perpetuate in this
spirit the recognition of Armistice
day, America can do no better than
follow their lead. The event is
heavy with sorrowful memories to
those VIII ose kin returned not from
the strife. Such joy as it engen-
ders is tinged with the feeling of
prayer and thankfulness which
breathed from the heart of the
world when the order to cease FIR
ing encircled the globes 1t should
not be permitted TO degenerate into
day of thoughtless amusement or
b o isterous entertainment. Men
paid with their lives to make it
possible; the living should ac-
k W edge the debt.-Denver

Mrs. E. S. SchIotzhauer
Passes Away Today

Late this aft ,rnoon. about foul
o'clock, the death of Mrs. E. S
Schlotzbauer occurred at the home
Of her daughter, Mrs. Ida Hanning,
on Miner street. Mrs. Schlotzhaue1
had been in i'll health and helpless
for about three years, and death
came as a great relief to her.
She was born in Sterling, Ohio,
Oct. 16, 1888, and at her death was
81 years of age. In 1S49 she
became the wife of Alfred Mathews,
who passed away in May, 1883,
and in 1886 was married to Henry
Schlotzhauer. in the state of Mis-
souri,, who in 1886 also died.
The deceased was a member of
the Methodist church and in her
younger days. until her health
declined, was always active in its
departments. She was devoted
mother, and her death brings great
sorrow to her daughters and friends.
For the past fourteen months she
made her home with her daughter
here.
Besides her many friends, she
leaves to mourn her departure
three daughters Mrs. Fowler Of
Rufus, Oregon. Mrs. HI. A. Starr
Of Sedalia, Missouri, and Mrs.
Ida Hanning of this city.
Arrangements for the funeral
services have not been made.

Mistreatment of Tires
Causes You Trouble

One of the hardest things for
a motorist to understand is that a
tire frequently suffers serious in
jury when bumped against curb
tone. Because the tire shows no
external damage, the owner is
likely to feel that the tire is de-
fective if some time later it blows
out as result Of the bump,
All the ingenuity of the skilled
tire engineer will never be able to
make tire that is comfortable to
ride on and at the same time able
to stand up under mistreatment of
this sort, says the United States
Tire Company. If a driver wants
to bang his tires around, he will
find it more economical to equip
with old fashioned iron tires than
with rubber Rubber tires will
stand greatd cal and deliver many
miles of service over rough roads.
But frequently undergoes internal
rupture when given unduly harsh
treatment, such as being bumped
against curb. The breakdown
is not due to faulty construction
but to shabby treatment.
