stretched dangerously on couch

Of the Memoirs of Casanova.
Now and then deep gurgles of

The three girls were in Nora
Lees room waiting their turn
to bath. 1t was vacation; they
were all at home. On the rare
occasions when no one went out,
they would all decide ito take a
bath. There would be a wrangle
about it, for it was necessary to
light the gas heater and wait
twenty minutes for the water to
get hot. Whoever spoke last had
usually to wait around until mid
night for her turn.
Bath AS Ritual.
Minna was generally first. In
vacation she took a hot bath
morning and night, but this in
no way curtailed her elaborate
ritual. She would first draw
black net cap over her million
tiny curls and over this a SWIM
ming cap. Then she set a little
bench near the tub, arranging in
order her manicure tools, her
cold cream, powder and towels.
She would then brace magazine

She emptied half a bottle of
Comics or BilIie's perfumed

luxuriate in the fragrant warmth

kicked on the door, finally sum-
moning Billie to forcibly eject

They insisted she never bother

a disgusted: Look at her ears!

When all were seized with this
irresistible passion for cleanness

agreed that one-half hour would

cause Of the war have had to re-
create nearly one-fifth of our national
resources. We can make up the loss,
he said, only by saving part of what
we produce each day.
1T is for that reason" he contln-
ued, that the present administration
has made every possible effort 10 cut
down the expenses Of government.
The expenses Of the government reach
everybody. Taxes take from every
one part Of his earnings, md force
everyone to work for n certain part of
his time for the government
when we come 10 realize that the
yearly expenses of all the governments
in this country have reached the stu
pendous sum of about S7,5O0.0OO,OO0.
we get some idea OF what this means.
OF this amount about $3,5O0OO0,OOO Is
needed by the national government,
and the remainder by local govern
ments. Such a sum Is difficult to com
prehend. II represents all the pay of
100000 wage earners receiving s. a
day. working 800 days in the year. II
the government should add on $780,
100000 Of expense. 1t would represent
four days more work Of these wage
earners. These are some Of the rea-
sons why | want to cut down public
expense.
Because Of my belief in these prin-
ciples, / favor economy that the taxes
Of everybody may be reduced. Much
has already been done. The bill which

tax reduction aud more tax reform.

serious problem. The public is not

volume. Many of the retail dealers
lacking more storage space or suf-

this case curtail production and are
