POWER OF THE PRESS.

Senor V. Blasco Ibanez, the Spanish novelist, believes in his profession and declares Gin the Times book review that without any doubt whatever, the novel is the most important and characteristic literary manifestation of modern life"
 But no, senor, the most impor- tant literary manifestation of mod ern life is the newspaper. The world could get along without nov els better than you may think, but without newspapers grass would glow in the streets and skin raj mert would come back into fashion E. S. Martin, in Life.

A Timely Suggestion

This is the season of the year when fhe prudent and careful housewife replenishes her supply of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It is almost certain to be needed before the winter is over and re- cults are much more prompt and satisfactory when it is kept at hand and given as soon as the first indication of a cold appears and before it has become settled in the system. There is DO dan ger in giving it to children as it contains no opium or other harm ful drug.

BUENGS kiEES UP TO DATE Residents Of Gay South American Capital Rightly Proud of Their
 Beautiful City.

Buenos Aires believes strongly in public utilities competition. It has four telephone companies, with re- sultant cut rates to subscribers. Au- tomatic telephones are being in- stalled, and it is said the South American metropolis is likely to beat New York to the use of these per capita.
 In many ways Buenos Aires is as up-to-date as any city in the world. It has all electric street car lines and also an honeSt-to-goodness subway, where the passengers have to hang to straps and are packed in like sar- dimes in box. It maintains con- plete communication system with all agricultural, industrial and con- mercial centers through South America and handles a large pro- portion of all the exporting and im- porting trade south of the equator. It supports grand opera, and its women are as smartly and expen- sively dressed as any who can get the fashion news from Paris.
 But the horse has not been super seded by the automobile. There are four times as many horses and car riages on the street as private mo- torcars, seven times as many horse drawn cabs as taxis and thirty-eight times as many wagons as auto- trucks.

INDIAN MARINE CAME FIRST
Honor That Has Seemed to Belong to Australian Navy Must Be
 Surrendered.

The belief that the Australian navy was the first branch of the royal navy thrown out by Britain in the outer waters appears to rest upon a misunderstanding. The honor belongs to the Indian marine, which was originally founded at Surat in 1913. It was once main tained at the cost of the East h. dian company. It protected the company's merchantmen from the depredations of pirates, of whom Joasmi, Clutch and other bold free booters gave the navy the most trou- ble. When the naval tide of war swept into the Indian ocean, the h. dian marine was as much a part of the British navy as the Royal Aus tralian navy was in the great war. But if the Australian navy cannot claim the distinction of priority, 1t may, none the less, take heart. In these days, with disarmament in the air, it may claim, the world will hope, the distinction of being the last of the British auxiliaries needed to win a definite place on the sea- Christian Science Monitor.

HEAT FROM STONES.

At a school in Canada advantage was taken of the heat-retaining property of stone. The large space at the back of a boiler, connected with the steam-heating system, was filled with stones, and it was found that when the stones were once thoroughly heated the fire could be allowed to go out, and the stones would keep up steam for a consid- erable time. Tests were made with two boilers, one a new one and the other old, and it was found that the new boiler kept up steam for 20 hours after the other boiler had ceased to give out heat.-Popular Mechanics Magazine.

Attorney General Says Unter-

WASHINGTON. Jan. 21. - The statement of Samuel Untermyer. of New York, last night. in his contro- versy with Attorney General Palmer. was branded by the latter tonight as in part ~absurdly false" in character The controversy has arisen over charges by Untermyer concerning Palmer's administration of the of fices of attorney general and of alien property custodian
 Untermyer's suggestion that the at torney general ought to be removed from office on his confession alone that he suspended the enforcement of the antitrust laws during the war" the attorney general termed "an ab- surd suggestion" and one that estab- lished the character of his entire interview
 What I said Palmer explained in a statement tonight. "was that as to antitrust cases. everybody knows that during the war they were sus- pended which is quite a different thing from suspending the law That was done long before became attor- ney general. for T did not take office until four months after the armis- tice.
 During my administration all the antitrust eases in the supreme court have been argued and substantial progress made toward reaching a con clusion in such cases pending in all the courts The absurdly false char acter of this statement is so appar- ent that nobody is apt to give much credeDce to any Of his lurid charges"
