REWARD OF Merit

People buy tea Just the same as
they buy other things. They seek
the most satisfaction for the price
paid.
If there were Just two brands Of
tea-LIPTON'S and another-and
if Lipton's led in sales, we might
call it Partially"
If there were ten brands-and
LIPTON'S led them all-we'd call
it preference"
But when there are thousands Of
brands and LIPT0M'S leads-that's
Predominence.
That LIPTON'S Tea has the
largest sale in the world is neither
accidental, sentimental nor provi-

was an apparent shortage.

 Finance Committee
By AssnciatodPress

Washington, July 22.-While the barrage preliminary to the battle over the wool schedule in the admin istration tariff bill was laid down to- day in the Senate, an under-t the surface movement was started by Senator Lenroot, republican, Wiscon- sin, looking to a general reduction in the higher duties proposed on coarse raw wool and manufacturers Of that wool, little of which Is pro- duced in this country.
 Senator Lenroot. who conducted a successful fight against some of the rates in tho cotton schedule said there was a considerable number of republican senators dissatisfied with the duties and that he was hopeful of getting a maximum duty of 60 per cent.
 The wisconsin senator estfraated that the duties on the coarse wool products ranged from 26 per cent to 1sT per cent. He made 1t plain that duties on the fine grades of wool either in the raw state or mRnrfac- tured products.
 Before the Senate met. the finance committee majority agreed tentative lv to a reduction of 6 per cent in the ad valorem duties on wooden cloths and other manufacturers. including clothingA whether these reductions are to be Recommended to the Son. ate will be considered further en Monday.

 Whereupon the London spoilers began to spoof. They are saying tha. Americas breakfast table of the fu- tUre is to be regulated not by the de- sires of the people, but by trade agreements negotiated through Wash ington with the non-drinking states of Eur ope.
 What seems to give the British people the greatest merriment. howa ever, is the sad fate of the Icelanders, who, deprived of their age-old Span fsh wines, will be compelled to seek surcease of sorrow and relief from tho bitter cold by diligent use of the sewing machines and knives import ed from tho United States.

 "The remedy for tho frightful dis solution of the marriage tie going on in America and it's inevitable conse- quence of race suicide is to be found in Christian training alone.

 Early Teaching
 Boys and girls must be taught as early as possible that the chief pur- pose of marriage is the perpetuation of the race, involving the begetting and education of children for the work of the world. Marriage Is A high and holy vocation because the married pair are cooperating with the Creator in the continuance of the human race.

We make our own the words of the conference committee, as applying in particular ito the United States."

American Packers May Break German
 Butcher Prices

Berlin, July 23.-American frozen meat promises shortly to release Cermanys army of bread winners from the ring of high prices which has for some time prevailed among the retail butcher shops of Berlin. Local dealers are being inundated with offers from packing firms In the United States. and Hugo Stinnes, the industrial magnate, has con- tracted with the Argentine govern ment for deliveries on large scale Representatives of wholesale dealers Tn Argentina also are reported to be negotiating big contracts here.
 With shops charging 100 to iTo marks per pound for roasting meat and proportionately high rates for other cuts, the German laboring man or the middle class worker finds ft too expensive to have meat in his menu more than twice week. ct the most, pn his wages of 1000 to b,000 marks monthly. It is estimated that frozen meat from the United States can be delivered in Hamburg at 50 marks q kilogram. At this rate a pound would come to some 70 or 50 marks in the retail shops of Ser lin.
 The situation has become Eo diff cult for many of the poorer Ger mans that they have resorted in some places to consumers buying "strikes." Shops which formerly were busy from morning till night have been obliged to close except for two days a week. The effect has been keenly felt in tho Berlin stock yards. where reduced con sumption has forced 500 employees sout of work within the last few weeks.
 One of tho causes of high prices is said to be the necessity for whole salers and stock yards to buy live stock at prices quoted on the hoof. They have fought this practice for years, claiming that 50 per cent of an animal IS lost for profitable re- tail m buying It according to live weight rather than to the poundage after slaughter,

 Distinguished Bishop
 The commission was appointed by the Episcopal general convention six years ago, and includes in its per sonnel some of the most distin- guished of the bishops, clerical and lay members of the church. Among other subjects which are frankly treated are those of marriage, divorce and birth control The report con- tains strong recommendation against the latter. Rev. Charles Moves Tyndell, S. T. D., of Williams port, Pa, secretary of the oommis- sion, in transmitting the report says that the whole effort of the com mission has been to present to the country vital message insas concise form as possible.
 Even a cursory glance at condi- tions in the average American home reveals evidence sufficient to war rant the most careful studyof those incluences now affecting these homes from the standpoint of morals and religion" the report continues. "The attitude toward youth, even more than the attitude of the youth, will scarcely bear severe scrutiny.
