Why Not Enjoy the Comforts of Your Modest Home In
stead of Pning the Luxuries That You Cannot Afford

There are many things about the
house or apartment where you live
that you do not like.
You allow these things to disturb
you 80 much that you are not in
mood to enjoy the features which
you do like.
II you cannot afford to have a
sun-parlor, a breakfast room, and
a sleeping porch what good does
1T do TO keep thinking about it?
Why not live in the comforts you
have, making the most Of them.
And while making plans for the
home that you know would suit

'The third class stewards authorize to say that
they have received every consideration from American

you, get some JOY out OF antlclpa-
ton.
Always wishing that you had
something different in living quar-
tiers, robs you of the happiness in
life.
Often a home is fitted up more
for others than for the occupants.
Often expenditures for improve
ments work a hardship daily.
Debt that is burdensome is peace
destroying.
Better a modest little place, free
from encumbrances, than a preten-
tious house, where worry destroys
the joy Of living.

Dorah Says England Has No
 Hand in Adjustment

Boise, Idaho, Aug 2S F -- Frances debt to the United States should be adjusted without tho as- slstance Of England, Senator Borah, chairman of the foreign relations committee of the senate, said yes terday in discussing negotiations now occurring between France and Englanl,
 Senator Borahs statement fol- lows:
 AS I view it Frances debt to the United States is a matter to be adjusted between France and the United States. It is neither ex- pedient nor wise for the United States 10 become involved in any three-cornered conference. The terms suggested to the United States through the courtesy of England may be satisfactory 10 England, but l do not think that they will be satisfactory 10 the taxpayers of the United States.
 T trust England will feel perfect ly free to make any settlements she wants to and I expect the United States to adjust this debt in accord- ance with the understanding had betwcn the French government and the United States in the beginning and in accordance with the facts and conditions as they exist now. , The maneuver which is being made in this matter in London is perfect ly transparent and need not mis- lead anyone"

Papers Feature story

London, Aug. 2S Rt-American dispatches, reporting amazement and irritation in the United States over the terms Of the Anglo-French pro, isloud debt arrangement and quoting statements of Assistant Sec retary Of the Treasury Winston and Senator Smoot Of the American debt commission and other persons, are featured in big type in the morning newspapers.
 No surprise is expressed here at the declaration that the United States government will adhere to it's attitude on foreign debts as already indicated, but anxiety is evnced in some of the comment over the re- ported suspicious in the United States that Chancellor of the EX- chequer Churchill and Finance Minister Caillaux schemed 10 put moral pressure on the United States in the interest of their respective countries. The newspapers print dsavovals of any intention on the part of Great Britain to take any action that might bring her into conflict with the United States,
 Pressure Not in Mind
 The Daily Telegraph, for example, regrets the seeming disposition at Washington to see evidence on con- certed action hv Great Britain and Irance to put pressure oil America to reduce her terms to France"
 That" says the newspaper. "cer- tainlv i8 not in the mind of the British government. Anglo Ameri- can relations are too Harmonious and too valued for Great Britain 10 become willingly involved in any auch maneuyer"
 The Westminster Gazette. in con demning the debt arrangement, says:
 Tt may he maintained that it ras wise for Great Britain 10 offer and accept q lower sum from France as a gesture to America; but America is apt to resent gestures which place her in such an inydious position
 The Daily Express declares that NJ Caillaux wishes 10 use the Brit ish offer as a means for beating down America and has hinted at new developments which may lead 10 q revision of Premier Baldwin's settlement with Washington. II adds. however. there Is no chance of this, but that there is the un- pleasant risk of the United States and Great Britain becoming em.
