makes the hair brittle.

cheap and beats anything else all TO
pieces. You can get Mulsifed at any
drug store, and few ounces will last

Vice President Coolidge is reported as
saying: Something of the difficulty
will be understood when it is remem-

from Czecho- Slovakia at a value of
about so cents per dozen in our mon
ey, and knives have been imported
from Germany at an invoice value of

Guilty OF finding any standard which
would meet the present shifting condi-
tions which is causing delay in the
adoption Of a tariff bill" Purchasers
of chairs and knives in retail stores
in this part of the country have seen
no evidence OF the effect of these low
priced importations. It is difficult,
therefore, to see how a higher tariff
would benefit the 11O.OOO.OOO consum-
ers in this country. But come to think
of it, tariffs are not intended to bene-
fit the consumers. On the contrary
their effect is always the reverse Of

LITTLE BENNY'S NOTE BOOK

BY LEB PAPE.

OOOASp
No matter how meny books you've
red, all you half to do is go in a ly-
berry and see how meny more there
is and you'll feel diskusted.
Some books take longer to reed
than others on account of having more
pages, and others don't take as long
on account of having more excite
ment. The easiest books to reed fast
are the ones having the most place
you can skip.
Some people never have eny time
to reed and others reed enyhow.
The ferst books you reed are fairy
tales, on account of if a book don [
begin Once upon a time, you don't. be-
leeve wat it says, ony wen you get
older you get more sents and the ony
books you beleeve wat they say is the
ones that don't begin Once upon n
time.
Some people take book out of the
lyberry on account of tie author and
some on account of the title and some
proving If nobody takes out a bool:
there must be something serious the
matter with 1t.
One persin mite reed book and
say its CRATE and another persin mite
reed it rite Afterwards and say its
punky. Proving they both mite be
rong.
Its mulch easier to reed book than
wat it is to remember wat was in Il
after you get throo. This is .-wffen
proberly lucky for you. because you
ony finish a lot of books because you
started them and you don't wunt to
waist the ferst half by not reeding the
End half.
One of the werst shocks you can get
is to reed a book and think its all rite
and then lose all the Enjoyment by
finding out you would of had to reel
it for skool anyways.

vvsEla's highest Paid Womsa Writse.

The Business Woman as a Wife,
She knows from experience how hard
every penny is earned, and she does
not waste her husbands money. She
knows that the possession of even a
little money opens the door of oppor-
tunity 20 a man, and so she sympa-
thizes with her husbands ambition
to save. She knows the awful nerve
wearing strain of business that leaves
a man a wreck at the end of the day,
and SO when her husband comes
home, too tired to talk, utterly done
up in mind and body, she doesn't feel
herself ill-used because he isn't bright,
and gay, and chatty. Instead she feeds
him, and fuses over him, and coddles
him like sick baby until he gets
himself together again
The woman who has had a few
years in business makes a better
homemaker than the woman who has
never done anything but stay at home
because she is more interested in it.
1t has to her the charm of novelty.
1t is the realization of a long desire.
You must have lived in hotels and
boarding houses, and eaten out of tin
cans and paper bags, and cooked
messes over u gas jet. to know how
glorious a thing it is to have home
and kitchen of your own.
1t is the woman who has always
had a home who is fed up on home,
and regards it as a prison out of
which she is always striving to break.
You can't interest her in budgets. nor
thrill her with new recipes, for she
loathes the gas range, and she mar
ries to get out of the kitchen, not to
go into it. And she looks with amused
contempt on the business woman who
considers cook cry q fine art that she
is mastering, and who is running her
house on the business efficiency plan.
The woman who has had a. few
re- hi1SinnGG axnpriaT7nn a
better mother than the woman who
has never earned her own bread and
butter, because she knows the world
in which her children must live, and
how to prepare them to meet its need.
The woman who has always lived safe
in the shelter of her home is as help
less to guide her children after in
fancy as landsman would be to pilot
ship across tempestuous sea. She
doesn't know where the safe sailing is,
nor where are the hidden rocks and
reefs. She visions a thousand imagin-
airy dangers. She is ignorant of a mil
lion real perils. Therefore, she is
powerlesS to help them.
Not so the woman who has been in
business She knows her world, and
she knows how to train her children
to meet it. She knows the roads that
lead to success, and those that go
down to failure. She knows what
qualities to develop in her children
and how to train them for the battle
| that each must fight. Just mother
love isn't enough. Mother wisdom is
also needed, and this the business
woman alone can give her children.
The woman who has been in bust
ness is the preferred risk in matrimony

greatest asset that any wife can have.

ASKS RECEIVER FOR GAS co.
Attorney General Takes Action in
Lawrence Case


Lawrepce Case.
The state of Kansas, by Richard ].
Hopkins, attorney general, Monday
filed an action in the United States
district court, asking that a receiver
be appointed for the Citizens Light,
Heat & Power company of Lawrence.
The suit follows closely those filed
in federal court a few days ago by the
state utilities commission and the city
of Lawrence in which an injunction
is asked to prevent the company from
charging more than so cents for gas.
The price of gas in Lawrence has
several months. The matter was be-
fore the industrial court in 1920 and
later was taken up by the utilities
commission and the district courts.
The industrial court issued an order
fixing the price of gas at 80 cents and
a similar order was issued later by the
utilities commission when it was
charged that the company was MAX
ing an additional service charge" of
so cents a month from each customer.
In the suits brought in federal
court by the utilities commission and
the city, it is charged that the gas
company continues to insist on the
service charge" and Hopkins, in his
suit, states that ST. 900 has been ill
legally collected in that manner. He
alleges that the only way to force the
company to submit to the rulings of
the utilities commission is to have a
receiver appointed who will be gov
erned by the directions of the court
