Economy in the Senate

II the theory that economy begins
at home holds for the United States
senate that body has long ways to
go before it can give proper assistance
in balancing the national budget.
Recently the clerk OF the senate
made public its joint expense account
and the New York Times took the
trouble to analyze that interesting
document.
Items listed are: Salaries of sena-
tors $l,149,0O0; other salaries $685.
600: reporting proceedings s6o,34o;
kitchens and restaurants $64,237;
California redwood for manufacture
into boxes $500: postage 5000; sta
tionery $44,l47.09.
Purchases included 500 aspirin
tablets, three pounds of bicarbonate
Of soda: one package of minis; two
bottles Of mouth wash; three pints of
medicated alcohol and five gallons of
witch hazel. The sum of $3.50 spent
for mineral water indicates that
more than $4,000 bottles were con-
sumed at Is cents a bottle.
Salaries Of BARRIERS, who are listed
as skilled laborers, amounted to
$500.
To the average citizen it would
seem that some items could be pared
from that account without causing
anger among the taxpayers. No one
would seriously object II the senators
paid for their own tonsorial atten-
dance or bought their own mouth
wash.
And those items for bicarbonate of
soda and mineral water give rise to
thought. Three pounds of soda would
relieve a lot of sour stomachs and
$4,000 bottles of mineral water would
-. But why go on? The country
went wet last year and this may be
only another proof that coming events
cast their shadows before.

Not For Gold

Maintenance, revision or abandon
ment of the present gold standard is
not subject about which the North
Dakota legislature can do anything,
but it seems evident that, il it had the
power, the changes would be speedy
and might be drastic.
Most pertinent evidence of this fact
is the proposal to issue state scrip.
II the state had the power to issue
legal tender money the idea undoubt-
edly would get more support than 1t
has obtained to date. The question
bothering those considering the SUBJ
rect is not whether more money in
circulation would be desirable but
whether the end can be attained.
Another evidence is introduction of
the resolution asking congress to enact
two bills which were introduced there
by Rep. o. B. Burtness in 1923 and
which have been knocking around the
national capitol ever since. Their
purpose is not to eliminate the gold
standard but to make it what its
staunchest advocates claim it already
is. an unfailing measuring stick for
industry and commerce.
The Burtness bills were drawn by
d. J. Times, now a member OF the
state senate from Grand Forks coun-
ty, and are based on the theory that.
instead of being stable, the gold dol
lar fluctuates in value quite as much
as anything else when its purchasing
power Is considered. They would ad-
just the value Of the dollar with re-
lation to the things it will buy and
provide q method Of keeping it at
q constant level In terms OF commo-
dities. Fluctuations in the relation
CT one commodity to another would be
cared for by basing the monetary
system on the index level which con-
Siders the prices Of all things, taken
together and weighted" as to their
Importance. It also takes into con-
sideration the exchange media which
are not legal tender, chief among
which is bank checks.
The idea evolved by Senator Times
is unquestionably feasible. It does not
take the country off the gold STAN
tlard but 1t does offer way to pre-
vent business fluctuations caused by
changing prices or values of the
dollar. If there is to be any tam
pering with the money system it
should aim in this direction.

HAIR

HAIR
One of our readers submits her ad-
vice, and I think it is good:
My advice to girls wishing to
remove superfluous hair from up
per lip or from chin or cheek. Do
not shave it. That makes mat
tiers worse. Tweeze. rather. just
as you do the eyebrows. The re-
suits are exactly the same. The
hair grows back. but not coarser
nor heavier than before. Keep
on pulling them out with the
tweezers as often as necessary.
After a certain time the growth
seems to be slower and you will
notice longer intervals between
tWeezings.
For hair over the checks bleach
with mixture of peroxide and
water, half and half. II the skin
becomes slightly initiated stop
applying the peroxide for week
and then try again, couple
times a week. BY this use of
peroxide the hairs become almost
invisible. Eventually they seem
to dry and disappear or cease to
grow.
have found this way Of deal
ing with the annoying condition
safe and effective. (MrS. M
A matron of extraordinary pulchri-
tude assured me that she had Suf-
tered for years from superfluous hair
and having tried all the recognized
means of relief she found that the
regular use of fine pumice stone kept
her face smooth and free from the
blemish. She rubbed the hairy sur
face not too vigorously every day OF
two, with the fine stone which toilet
goods dealers supply. This regular
attention, she found. kept the growth
OF hair down to inyisibility without
Irritating the skin.
One thing the woman annoyed By
superfluouS hair on the face must
learn is that no known chemical OF
medicament will destroy or perman
emily remove hair. The various de-
pilatory preparations dissolve tn.

effect is no more permanent than j!
the effect Of an ordinary shave with

cal powerful enough to dissolve hal
will irritate the skin II allowed to re
main on the skin a few moments to

Few If any RESPONSIBLE physi
clans or specialists (dermatologists
will employ X-ray for the destruction
Of superfluous hair about the fac
except in the treatment of the tuft
Of hair that ofen grow in a mole {
similar lesion. The reason why repu
table physicians hesitate to use X-ra
tor this purpose is that there is al
ways more or less danger Of an X-ra
Lurn, which is infinitely worse tina
superfluous hair. So the woma
veXed with this trouble should thin
twice before entrusting herself to til
ray treatment Of any charlatan.

Renville County
Woman, Dead Since
Y Wednesday, Found

The body of Renville county wo-
man was found sitting upright in her
kitchen chair Friday evening by
neighbors.
Renville county officials believe her
death occurred sometime Wednesday.
July II.
Miss Mary Anna Anderson, 81, who
lives a mile south of Bechyn, was last
seen by neighbors Wednesday morn
ing when she was walking about her
small farm.
Feeling that something had hap
pened to the woman who has occupied
the house alone since the death of her
brother a few years ago, several
neighbors went to her farm to invest
igate. They found the doors of the
house closed and the body in her fav-
orite rocking chair where they had
seen her many times on other visits.
They notified Renville county authori-
ties of her death.
DR.. Passer, Renville county coron-
er and Henry Heaney, sheriff, pro-
nounced death due to natural causes.
She was born in March, 1866 and
spent practically all her life in Rem
vile county.
Funeral services were held at 5
%. m. Saturday at the home and burial
will be in the Beaver Falls cemetery.
Rev. Oscar Joneson of the Church of
Christ was in charge.
