KINGS GREETINGS CABLED.

WASHINGTON, Jan. liking George
Of Great Britain today cabled new year
greetings TO President Wilson.

TuE CoN1vG CoNFrRENcr

The presidents invitations to the Washington conference are In the ex- pected form. By their terms no na- ton is bound to any particlar line of policy, or committee to anything in advance. There is to be full and free discussion of the question of reducing armaments and also of the Pacific and far eastern problems. The presidents argument in favor of reduction of armaRents is clear and weighty, and ought to have 2 powerful influence with the people everywhere. But back of this question is the state of mind of the nations, the temper in which they enter the conference. If they are jealous and suspicious, If they are fearful that each will endeavor to put something over" on the other, if, in short, all are con cerned chiefly to find the reasons for doing nothing, then the conference will fail. There must be, as the president says, real and earnest desire for peace, realization of the horrors of war, and willingness on the part of all to subordinate everything to the ac- complishment of the great purpose of the conference. The world has a chance to redeem itself from the curse of war. and an opportunity to take a great sten forward.

READ YOUR CHARACTER By Digby Phillips,
 Copyrighted 1891

LOVE LIPS
 Maybe the poet and the novelist haven't hit so far from the mark in their eulogy of the "Cupid's bow"
 At least the "Cupid's bow" is consider ed the most perfect development of the center section of the lips, and it is this of the individuals ability to love and desire to be loved.
 Lip that are full in the center indicate a sensitveness to that emotion called love, and the capability of feeling it. Other things being equal, the greater the degree of this capability.
 This fullness also counts as a more powerful indication in mouths that are large than in small ones.
 But the mere fu1lness is not ail Much depends upon the perfection of it's de- velopment and upon the general charac- ter of the mouth. Have you never no ticed that full lips are rather usual among the Jews? Affection runs deep and emotional in the blood of this race, pro verbally so.
 However, where the fullness is over developed or where it is observed in i '1oose-lipped" mouth, it indicates T strong tendency toward sensuality art 1 icentiousne2s. It's a mere tendency , understand. People can't help theil i tendencies, and many a saint has tri umphed over greater weaknesses tha1 l that indicated by the tso-called sensua lips So don't jump at the conclusion that all persons possessing them ar immoral.

BEING OUT OF SEASON

 Oh pshaw, is that so? We'll. I'm terribly disappointed, for I did wish you to hear this young soprano. She's 9 nightingale, all right.

 "On Thursday MT. Westerly phoned me to say that he would like to call if con venient, and Mrs. Leigh told me to ask him to come to dinner, which he did He and MT Leigh discovered they had busi- ness interests in common, and I think he had a beautiful time getting acquainted with such a successful and kindly persoT in his own line. We talked but little to. gether,S until MT. Leigh excused himself late in the evening. Then MT.

KEEPING THE AGKEEA1ENr

After September 15 the Rhineland economic barrier is to be taken down by the allies. The customs penalty will be no more at2er that date, if Ger many continues her reparation pay ments and lifts the present boycott against French goods.
 This will be a sort of mixed blessing for the Teutons. The French will profit as they are not averse to doing a bit of trade with their old enemies, and the boycott has hurt Nevertheless, it is a good and hopeful sign.
 If Germany continue to keep her agreements. the allies are going even further. The cities of Ruhrort, Dus- burg and Dusseldorf may be freed oi the occupying allied forces after the next meeting of the supreme council. Great Britain favors 1t, but France is not so certain that this will be a good thing However, Paris is likely to yield.
 It depends upon Germany's going straight. Thus far Berlin, the Wirtf government and the Germans general ly have given no cause for criticism ol censure since signing Germa{ny put her signature to the agreement and has kept it.
 Al this tends to weaken the French party that is anxious to occupy mort of cGermany. It is creating a new re spect for German readmission into in ternationsl circles.
 More important that anything else, I is making for quiet, for normalcy ant for peace in Europe

TBAMPs OF THE SKY

We. are often visited by comets, and while we do not have approximations about them, and we don't believe that they fortell the death of great mon arch, or that war will follow their aP- pearance, we do wonder where they came from ard where they go. There have been a great many theories as to the occasion and the orbit of these strange visitors, and the modern one IS 10 the effect that comets are bodies with long periods involved in their re- volution-that they are orderly as the other heavenly bodies, not something Uncertain and queer.
 The name "combet- derived from the Latin word coma" or hair, was applied to any inhabitant of the sky that seemed to have a hairy tall, in fha time of the ancient Romans. Many of the old philosophers wrote about them and described them as being oi the same nature as meteors

"Of course, you'n wish to hear all about the wonderfully gay times I am having hsre in the city" wrote Ellen Gilmore to her sister at home in the country. First I must tell you that there was no ia delegation of anxious friends waiting at the station to meet me. Perhaps that isn't done any more But I was well taken care of. for Mrs. Leigh's chauffeur discovered me in the crowd and welcomed me warmly. allud- ing pleasantly to the hospitality We had shown him last summer when he drove the Leighs up to Hickory Dock.

Then l called up Lillian Armsby to tell her the glad news of my arrival
 Why, Ellen she exclaimed what a | delightful surprise Yes, of course, l re- member now you wrote that you were i coming, but had no idea you'd be here so soon. l must see you. Let me think. Dear me. I don't believe I have min ute free this week. Well. we must try for lunch together some day next week I suppose, dear, you'll be as full of en- agreements as everybody always is in this wildly busy town Then she asked sweely for you and I haven't heard from her since. It just occurs to me that when she comes to the lake next summer she will need a complete rest.
 Mrs. Leigh came home just before dinner and was as lovely as ever. She has taken me about to several of hel clubs and to the meetings of her hos pital board and her civic league and it's all been intensely Interesting. She has many activities in which I cannot share but she is a dear and she has done al she could to add to my pleasure.
 When Tom English called up and sait he wished to take me somewhere I wa' afraid he would suggest the show Mrs Leigh had taken me to. But he didn't.

lation of the city dwindled. and many of the palaces and other buildings fen into ruins.
 But the city has had a second re- juvenation. Modern measures of hygiene and sanitation have greatly modified the unhealthy town of century ago just as similar steps made over the once fever ridden New Orleans. Stagnant pools have been drained away ard for many miles in every direction the marshes have been reclaimed for felds. The town also has been given, that primary necessity, a supply of pure drinking water. About the city factories have sprang up.
