 EXPANSION

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15. P-De- clining gold supply is worrying the bankers.
 A scarcity will inevitably lower world commodity prices, the New York Trust Go. warns. It quotes the royal commission on Indian currency, planning to put India on a gold standard, that steadily falling prices are in prospect unless great econo- my is exercised in the use of gold"
 Briefly, the worlds problem is this:
 Scores of governments are striv ing to regain enough gold, lost dur ing the war, to make gold the basis of their monetary systems,
 The United States, as result of the war, owns 46 per cent of the worlds monetary supply of gold.
 Production in new metal is not increasing sufficiently, the 1925 mine total being only about s394, 10000
 World commerce is increasing yearly, and as trade increases the worlds gold stock must also in- crease one expert, Prof. R. A. Leh- feldt, estimating that 8 per cent yearly increase in trade before the war necessitated a two and one half per cent yearly increase in gold sup ply.
 The New York Trust Co. points out that in 1924-25 the gold output increased only 2.25 per cent, and "a 2 per cent increase is the generally accepted estimate for the future"
 Six countries returned to the gold basis in some form during 1926: Belgium, Canada, Chile, Finland, Hungary and Switzerland. There are about 29 important countries now on a gold standard, with at least an equal number struggling to get there.

PARADE 0F FASHION

A church dress" is the smiling, profitable answer of the fashion shop to the Pope's edict against gowns too short at both ends.
 It means one more change a week and one more dress in the wardrobe, and all is well in the best of worlds.
 The increasingly strict enforcement of the vatican's order that women in "unseemly" dress shall be barred from the church and not be given communion caused uneasiness in the style world at first. The gown de- signed for Sunday services solves the problem because it will have a style of it's own, not necessarily fluctuating with or following dress makers whims.
 The present furry, like nearly all else, is not new. Tn ages past there have been similar campaigns and one erudite scholar has dug out of an old tomb the epigram: Man is fire, woman is tow, and the devil blows on them"
 Low cut necks caused the trouble in the old days, but that was easily remedied with a piece of lace. Mod ernisn, however, complicated things when it took to shortening gowns at both ends and chopped off the sleeves.

kept stealing through the window
toward the Brents'; she only felt
that she must encourage this new
mood.
Mrs. Haiden had invited her to
dinner at the Yacht Club that
evening and 1t occurred to her
that Kitten would be axplea SAINT

I'll ask Frances. dear. But I'm
sure she'd like to have you. Want

1t was settled that Emily would

ton. she paved the way to the
very end of the tricky road her
sister already was travelling.
Kittens jubilance died out
when she saw Stella coming
across the lawn. She made a
frightened movement toward the
door; then a hard, bright defiance
took possession of her and she
went on washing the dishes.
Hear the racket over at our
place last night?" Stella wanted
to know. And still going strong.

The next morning. before 10
O'Clock, Mabel was at the house.

you how to manage Beau?"
Mabel was silent. Her little face
was sullen, and she kicked her
heels against the beautiful old
chair In which she was sitting.
We'll. Ill tell you whether you
want to hear 1t or not Aunt Em
said brightly. THE trouble with
you, Mabel, !; that you started all
wrong in your married life. You
never should have worked a day In

What would happen when Dot
began to talk?
For the first time In her bIithe
young life Kitten was afraid.

''oh, is it Dottie? Why, Stell-"
"I'll say. Came home lit"
Stella looked sharply at Kitten
but the golden eyes met hers
without quiver.
Emily was white with horror.
But where had she been. SteI?
And your father doesn't let her

at Kitten. Wont say where

does any more stepping. Know

Kittens eyes were green alb.
why should I? Dot don't tell
me her troubles. Not the talking
kind. I'll tell the world"
Maybe" Stella said wrylv.
But Dot'll talk before she gets
through with this. Got to go

She paused long enough to
whisper to Emily. 1t was all right
about Skeets, she said. She had
seen him and they had made up.
I'm so glad, dear. You're happy
again? l hope it's for the best
But Emily didn't believe it was.
Stella was too restless 10 be happy.

Mabel did. Her little face was
pale gray from loss of sleep and
lcnr' hours of crying. Her mouth
was colorless, and it dropped. Ma
bel was a perfect picture of the
reason husbands leave home.
What do you think, Sally?" she
asked, turning to her pretty sis
ter-in-law.

swered Sally, promptly.
But while she spoke she was
thinking that Mrs. Jerome had al
ways been a clinging vine, and
that Beau's father had not taken
care Of her very well. In his way,
he had been more neglectful than
Beau.
After Mabel was gone, taking a
large basket filled with cold fried
chicken and grape-jam turnovers
with her, she spoke to Aunt Emily
about it.

any more unless I'm with him! I
told him ! needed 1t to give the

smiled 50 broadly that the LIQUID

crack.
