This is all right if you're rich
enough to hire a valet to take it
for You.
a COLD shower in the morning
is wonderful, but you usually
have to set out OF bed to take it.
OF course, you could overcome
this by sleeping in the bath
tub.
WITH the price OF coal so high
this would be good way to
keep warm. Instead OF using
blankets you could just cover
yourself with hot water.
RUT this would be tough on
people who are used to Sleep
ing with their heads under the
comfortables.
AND 1t wouldn't be very pleas
ant either for people who go
to sleep with their mouths open.
NYBoDY who suffered with
asthma would be surprised
to wake up in the morning and
discover that he had inhaled all

their mouths shut while they're

PETROGRAD. (By MaiD-"Only two profitable careers are open to Russia's bright young men today, and they are speculation or bandit1y a bearded old civil engineer told the writer while riding on the train from Moscow to Petrograd recently.
 This engineer, who occupies an important post with the state rail- way administration, said that he earned salary which is the equiv alent of about s15.00 month His son, who is speculator and ad- mittedly not over scrupulous in the way he turns his profits, makes fifty times that amount.
 Our salaries are so low in the state service that no ambitious young man, particularly if he is married, can reconcile himself to accepting them. There fore to win a fortune or live comfortably, he must be- come one of that hated class in Russia and elsewhere, a speculator. The only other lucrative profession is that of bandit, or hold-up man.
 People who blame the specula- tors forget that it probably will be they, with their quickly secured prof. its and faculty of taking long chances, who will ultimately build up Russia It is not a long cry from speculating in merchandise to taking a chance on building a rail road or developing a mine They are the pioneers, breaking away from old Russian traditions and be- coming men of business. Exactly the same kind of pioneers or specula- tors in your Wall Street helped build up America"

AIR FLIVvER DOES 65 MILES
 AN HOUR AT HIGH ALTITUDE

LONDON, (By Mail)-Last years dream of aerial flivvers has come true. An experimental glider fitted with twin engines of five horsepow- CT and two tiny propellors has, in its first test flight, hit up speed of 65 miles an hour and attained a height of $500 feet. The flight was made from the airdrome at Yympne, within TWO hours after the little plane had been unpacked from a motor lory.
 It seemed easy to assemble the many parts and not at all difficult from a financial standpoint, to keep it in the air, the gasoline consump- tion being much less than for a small automobile.
 The propellors, each a yard in length, are at the back of the front plane. where a chain connects them with the engine. The pilot sits in front The span of the front wings measures only B feet, and the length from head to tail is 12 feet. There is hardly any undercar- riage, the landing wheels being at tached to the body itself.
 The new glider will be entered in the various European gliding con tests this sumer. They are sure to produce even greater sensations than those of a year ago, since the interim use of small powered engines in airplanes has made distinct pro gress.

HARDING TELLS CANADIANS
 FRIENDSHIP BEST SECURITY

VANCOUVER, B. C. July 26-- President Harding, in an address de livered here today-the first visit ever made by an American president to Canada-pointed to the century old friendship between the people of Canada and the people of the Unit ed States as proof to the nations of Europe that public will, rather than public force, is the key to interna- tional peace, land is it not a grat- flying circumstance that it has fal- len to the lot of us North Ameri- cans, living amicably for more than a century under different flags, to present the most striking example yet produced of that basic fact. Ii only the European countries would heed the lesson conveyed by Canada and the United States, they would strike at the root of their disagree nents and, in their own prosperity forget to inveigh the constancy that is ours"
 In conclusion, the President Advis- ed the ueople of the Dominion to guard against giving encouragement ''to any end looking to Canada 's annexation by the United States. ''
