POISON BOOZE EVIL.

Poison booze occupies almost as prominent place
in the days news as poison gas did in the days of
the war and IT is difficult to say which is the more
deadly The drinker who INDUCES in the stuff that
Is sold under the Of liquor these days is taking
a grave chance, and the real bottled in bond
contraband is becoming scarcer, every day, that
chance becomes infinitely greater.
The synthetic booze sold by the bootleggers Is
manufactured by INSCRIPTIONS men who have no
regard for the law, and being criminals to the ex-
tent OF rising Jail for few dollars in violation OF
state and federal statutes, they may be depended
upon to go a step farther and market any kind of
dope" for which they get money
There are reckless souls who risk life and limb
in speeding motor cars; there are others who test
new parachute devices from the wings of flying air
planes and still others who climb skyscrapers
over Niagara Falls or dive from the top Of the
Brooklyn bridge. All expect the reward of notori-
ETY. with Its consequent vaudeville engagements for
large sums. And then there fools who drink
bootleg rum All the reward they can expect Is to
pose as central figures at coroner's inquest.

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
THE CONFERENCE KEPT TO DUTY.

Washington has been cancelling steamer reser-

quency which leaves doubt that Charles e.
Hughes is still the job. Arthur Balfour and
Baron Kato have postponed their departure for
home; the connection with President Harding s
statement that the Shantung question must be set
tied is obvious. This is repetition of the Hughes
touch of the first day Of the conference. Back in
the third week of November there observers on
the spot who spoke of the Conference virtually
over. With naval reduction agreed upon, every
thing else would be formal and empty gesture.
After that the Conference to be surely by
Christmas and after that by the middle of the pres
ent month. The prospects are now good for the
Conference sitting into February
Our delegates at the Conference and President
Harding himself could not have acted otherwise.
For the Conference to adjourn without settlement
of the Shantung problem would have been to refuse
to China the minimum of service that she had
right to expect. On other phases of the Chinese
problem the American public might be reconciled to
agreements in principle with details to be worked
out by international commissions. But Shantung for
two has been presented to the American public
moral issue. Shantung of the two big
indictments against Mr.. Wilson, the other being
Article X. The American public has been strenu-
ously educated to the thought that armament reduc
tion in the Pacific would be Of little avail without
the removal of the Of irritation in the Far
East, and Shantung was the greatest of these.
President Harding is right in thinking that the
Conference should sit until Shantung has been dis
posed Of Any other decision would be denial of
elementary justice to China and indictment of
serious failure against the Conference a whole.

A MAN-MADE MYSTERY.

From recent reports it looks as If the riddle OF
woman has been guessed and is about to be pro-
claimed abroad and no longer will she be able to
pose as the great mystery of the ages Already the
English writer w. L. George, has landed on our
shores with brand wife and the boast that he
understands all the feminine psychology and that it
is not such a hard problem to fathom Then Eng

other man who understands woman, Joseph Herge-

These claims coming close together awaken
the fear that these two students of may

Alligator. ''Well, I'll eat it all up
and then nibble your ears. Here
give me the cake." He made a
grab for it, most impolitely, bu:
the cake Of soap was wet and
slippery, an no sooner did the
Gator have his paws on it than
the cake slipped away from him.
1t slid over the bath room floor,
out into the hall and down the
stairs, bimpity bump, slimpity
slump.
ooh, there goes my cake! There
goes my cake" howled the bad
chap. He made a jump for it,
stepped on the cake as it was slid
ling down the stairs, and down fell
the skillery scallery creature him
self, going bimpity bump down the
stairs. Bang" he went up against
the front door, which flew open.
and out bounced the Gator into
the snow.
There! Eat the slippery cake
of soap if you like, but you can't
get in here again to nibble my
ears!' cried Uncle Wiggily as he
locked the door.
Fooled again!" cried the Gator
as he slid off, after taking one bite
of the cake of soap and not liking
1t at all. Fooled again!"
So the bunny's ears weren't nib
bled. And if the cats tail doesn't
knock all the dust off the piano so
there isn't any for the rag doll to
skate on I'll tell you next about
Uncle Wiggily and the frozen nest.

SHOE EXPORTS INCREASE.

American manufacturers shipped 1.666,9S1
pairs of mems boots and shoes abroad last year
than in the year before the war, when exported
$500 900 pairs Cuba, best customer in 1913,
bought 5000 more than the 100000 she took
then about one-fourth of our total exports. The
surprise of last year that Russia which in 1913
bought less than "a per cent Of our exports, last
year became chief customer, buying over SS per
cent of our total.
Another curious feature is that while the ex-
ports Of mems footwear are larger than before the
war and bringing in s41S pair on an average
against $2.14, the exports of women's shoes are
35S,6S6 pairs less than in 1913. Cuban women are
buying more than ever, but Canadian women. like
Canadian men, are taking a much smaller per-
centage of total shoe exports strangely enough,
Russian do not to have taken to or
had the chance to buy shoes Russian men
did The explanation is that the mems imports
were for Trotsky's army.

New York. Jan. 1S.-The stock
market today followed in its es-
Sentials. the course set by recent
sessions, with the noteworthy diff
ference that dealings were on a
much larger and broader scale.
The movement again seemed to
derive it's chief support from bull
pool and other speculative in
terests. There were few IL any
signs Of pronounced public partici-
patton, save among high grade div

Steels and affiliated equipment

further advance of one to almost
six points, under lead of Gulf
States Steel, was attended by re-
ports that various mergers were
approaching a definite stage.
Motors and their subsidiaries,
metals, textiles, feathers and food
specialties were prominent at gains
of one to three points. The several
miscellaneous or unclassified
groups comprising chemicals, fer
tilizers and utilities also rose one
to three points.

BY Howard B. Cart

"Uncle Wiggily, 1 suppose you
will be very angry at me-" said
Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy one
morning, as she stood near the
table where bunny rabbit gentle
man was eating his breakfast of
boiled carrots with lemonade sauce
sprinkled down the middle.
Angry at you? Pray tell me
why, Janie?" asked Uncle Wiggily,
as he crossed one paw over the
other to reach for the ; butter
knife, while he twinkled his pink
nose upside down just for a
change.
We'll, I want to go out again,
and leave you alone in the bunga

simply must go down to the five
and ten cent store to get a new
diamond alarm clock. Our old
one doesn't go off"
Doesn't go off where" asked
Uncle Wiggily. Where do you
want our alarm clock to go off to,
Nurse Jane?"
ooh, don't be making jokes and
pohing fun at me-" begged the
muskrat lady. "You know what
mean"
Eyes, I guess I dol" laughed the
bunny rabbit. you mean the old
alarm clock doesn't ring to wake
me up in the morning, and you
want to go down town shopping to
buy another, and leave me alone
in the bungalow; is that it?"
ut is" answered the muskrat
lady. will you be afraid to stay
here alone?"
Indeed not" answered Mr..
Longears. Besides, / may not
stay very long after you go out.
I'll take my door key and go look
for an adventure. If I get back
before you do can let myself in"
"All right" said Nurse Jane" so
she started for the five and ten
cent store to get new diamond
and gold alarm clock.
Let me see now" said Uncle
Wiggily to himself when he was
left all alone in the bungalow. Il
think I shall go out and look for
an adventure. But first had bet
ter wash my paws and face. There
seems to be little bit of oatmeal
mush sticking to my whiskers. I'll
go up in the bath room and wash
my paws and face with a little
sudsy SOAP"
Wiggily hoped up to the bath
room, and he was just drying his
paws and face on the towel when,

all at once, he heard some one
coming up the stairs,
Dear me! Can that be Nurse
Jane coming back so soon?" asked
the bunny rabbit of himself. "Thcy
must have had a bargain sale of
diamond clocks at the five and ten,
oh, JAMIE" he called out OF the
bath room, what time is it by
your new gold and diamond
clock"
Time to nibble your ears
that's what time it isl" growled
rough voice, and then up into the
bath room sprang the Skillery
Scallery Alligator with the bumps
on his tail.

gily.
Not at all, dear!" snickered the
Alligator. VERY cheap, | should
say. I'm going to nibble your ears
for nothing and what could be
cheaper than that. Not at all dear,

VERSE OF TODAY
MEMORY.

All memory II plays not false
1t will not let me rest.
They haunt me still, those blessed hours
Back in the old home nest.
Remembrance doth not cease pursuit
Though fain l would forget
That loved ones there have not escaped
Deaths unappeased net.
And as days come and as days go
And hopeless seems the strife
Though be your mede. all JOY all woe
Just carry on, it's life.
Though sad and dreary seems today
Tomorrows sun dawns bright
For God provides a recompense
A day for every night.

could fool that bad old Skillery
Scallery Alligator with the bumps

piece of slippery soap he had just
used in washing his paws.
ooh, Mr.. Alligator" said the
bunny. Before you nibble my
ears wouldn't you like cake?"
why, yes" the Skillery Scallery
chap answered. II would like a
bit of cake. Where is it?"
ooh, I'm going to give you a
whole cake" said the bunny, with
twinkle of his pink nose. There
it is" and he pointed to the wet
cake of white soap on the edge Of
the bath room wash basin.
Now the Alligator didn't know
what soap was. never washing
himself with 1t, and only taking a
bath in plain water. So, not know

what Uncle Wiggily pointed at was
