Arabs Suffer From Famine.

"The Drinkers Of Sunshine" as the
Arab shepherds call themselves, are on
the verge of starvation throughout AL
geria, and unless wheat is imported
from America it may have nothing but
sunshine as a steady diet during the
winter.
The threatening famine is the re-
suit Of a years drought.
Seventy-five per cent of the sheep
In Algeria have died as a result of
the drought, and the Arab Drinkers

pliers, incapable Of any work but that
of guarding their flOcks, are in dire

silly talk, but yours is the worst yet.
You can't convince me that the day
will ever come when a man with the
jumping rheumatism, such as my hus-
band is afflicted with, can sit down
and cure himself by reading a book,
even if the book is endorsed by con-
greSSmen and justices Of the peace
and other dignitarieS without number.

demic of measles in this neighbOr-

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL

For more than a year Senator New
berry of Michigan absented himself
from the senate, and after the supreme
court had set aside his sentence. he
again appeared in the chamber. This
sort of absentee-senatorship service is
not peculiar to Mr., Newbery as there
are plenty of instances where mem

makers. 1t is announced that the sen
ate will thoroughly investigate the
Newberry case and determine whether
the purity of that body will be soiled
by continuing as a member one IN
whose interests a big campaign barrel
was tapped, and its contents distriD-
uted among the bewildered voters. OF
course the senate could have done this
a year ago, but at that time Senator
Newberry was being kept in reserve
for emergency purposes, Since then
the senate has gone boots and baggage
into the republican column and Sena-
tor Newberry has ceased to be an
emergency and he is now merely An
incident. Therefore his case is likely
to be judged upon its merits. Thus

government finds a way to vindicate

Paper Prices Are Being "Adjusted"
@ISdMaMsysTa

The papermakers are o strike. The manufacturers were able to
make 20 much profit last year that they have found it necessary to
ut the wages of their employees 80 per cent and increase working
hours to SO. ~
There was a few weeks ago a real danger that paper might reach
a rational price, owing to the business depression, and consequent
slack demand. The strike will help to prevent what might have been
a serious loss Of profit to the manufactures.
There is nothing complex about this paper situation, that is being
brought to the attention of the reader by the harnessed newspapers.
You a se the reason for it, in ten minutes observation of the
shoppers, in any town or city. There goes a woman with a market
basket. She has eve packages. Only N of them is not elabo-
rately wrapped with a handsome paper carton and label. That one is
a head of lettuce, and it is wrapped in manila paper. Even that
can of sardnes is encased in a coored paper box.
Every hour of the day in this town sees enough paper foolshly
wasted in this way to print this newspapers weekly edition.
The paper is carried home, torn from the package, and thrown away.
1t has cost the shopper from 10 to 200 per cent to buy her food
in its expensive wrapper. She has helped the few big packers and
THE CONSUMPTION OF PAPER IN CARTONS AND NEED
LESS WASTEFUL WRAPPERS is THREE TIMES THAT OF THE
CONSUMPTION BY NEWSPAPERS IN THIS COUNTRY.
The paper situation is close to every line of business.
A destruction of this manipulation of the paper market and the
distribution of food would mean more % the consume than a rs per cent
reduction in freight rates. just by way of making you realize that YOU
ARE concerned in the paper situation!

week from Los Angeles where she
has been in a hospital for the past
three weeks. She was accompanied
by her sister, Miss Maggie Clark of

well and is again looking like her
