Children Cry for Fletcher’s Castoria Chinese Trade and the War. United Stutes trade with China in creased in 1015, although foreign busi ness men throughout the world suf fered a loss of more than $100,000,000 i ■ their exports to that country last jear. China has for years been in an unsettled condition, yet the country’s foreign trade mounted higher and high er until the European war, wjien the trade was crippled. Wherever a rail road has been built in China new trade opportunities have sprung up and new markets have been created. On the upper Yangtze river In western China, a rich island empire in the Chungking consular district, having a population of upward 75,000,000, no adequate transportation facilities exist, and no railway connection whatever. The People Pay. The people of the United States are paying war prices for a great many ar ticles of everyday use because those articles are not produced at home. In other words, they are having a prac tical demonstration at so much per of the democratic free trade idea. The idea is thW we ought to buy where we can buy cheapest. It may have worked in the old days, bnt,it doesn’t work now, because all the cheap sources of supply are closed. If the old Repub lican idea of protecting industry in our own country had been followed con sistently for the lust ten or fifteen years we should have had factories busy la the production of all these things, and our people would be able to purchase them at reasonable prices. Right now the mistake of abandoning the theory of protection is costing the people of this country more than it costs any European nation to do its part in tile war. —Yakima Republic.

Sidney Ward was on the road to .success and was both grateful and modest. He had only one care in life —Myra. He did not know if Myra Dal worth knew her mind. He loved her, however.. She was kindly and gra cious, but he had a rival, Gene l’artin. Sidney was a lawyer, but lmd grad ually drifted from his professional ca pacity into politics. A reform move ment had come along and he liudjbeen induced to allow his name to be placed on that ticket. The result was that he was elected prosecuting attorney. At the end of two years the spoils men of the party put up a strong local tight. The city needed the right man in the right place. Sidney w r as elected mayor by a flattering majority. Partin w as ousted from a position as assessor, but on tiie county ticket was made a justice of the peace. This wus quite a come-down for that free-and-easy spendthrift, but he managed to maintain an automobile and wear good elothes, boasting of a rleli uncle in another state and a pros pective heirship. He hud a pleasing way and was popular and Myra’s fam ily rather favored him in preference to Sidney, but the latter had heard of some wild doings of his in the city, and, leaving all personal hopes aside, would have grieved to see him the hus band of a bright, innocent girl like Myra. Sidney was delighted when Myra and a girl friend, both considerably in terested in charitable and humani tarian work about the city, came to his office one day. Myra lind a slip of pa- A Poorly Clad Stranger Shuffled Into the Room. per in her hand on which a name and number were written. She handed it to Sidney. “Mr Mayor,” she said, “we have come to ask a favor of you in line with the uplift work of our society." “ ‘Jerome Boyce, 971,’ read Sidney, “wants a position, I suppose—most of my applicants do.” “No, no, Mr. Mayor,” explained Myra, quite on her maidenly dignity in treating of official business —“we want a pardon." “For tills man?” inquired Sidney. “Yes, Mr. Mayor. He has been set at breaking stone. He is old, ill, has friends lie can go to. His offense was drinking to excess and Mr. Partin —” “You mean Mr. Justice of the Peace,” reminded Sidney with a smile. “If not, why distinguish in your selec tlou of stiff official names?” “But a justice is not a mayor," ob served Myra, with an expression on her face that emphasized the estima tion in which she held ids lofty dignity. “Besides, it is a good deal to ask you to turn loose a man on the community who was lu the past at least a confessed criminal.” “And you have assured yourself that this Jerome Boyce is worthy of leni ency?” interrogated Sidney with busi nesslike gravity. “Oh, indeed, yes,” replied Myra promptly. “I —I vouch for him.” “That is a full guarantee for this deportment at all times,” declared Sid ney, and he felt rewarded by the most grateful glow in Myra’s eyes as he filled in a pardon blank. “How good you are,” said Myra, "both to us and to this poor man.” Sidney forgot all about the iicidert until late in the afternoon. He was about to leave his office for the day when a poorly clad stranger shuffled into the room. “I’m Jerome Boyce,” he announced, “and the young lady said you would help me a bit on my way.” “Oh, yes, I remember,” answered Sidney. “What are your needs, my man?” “Just ear fare to Hampden. I’m through with the road. and. whut’s worse, the Jimmy. I’ve a sister living at Hampden and I can bunk in if I'll be respectable.’ "Is that sufficient to carry you through?” asked Sidney, extending a teu-dollar bill. “Oh. it’s only a dollar and a half, the railroad fare.” THE DOUGLAS ENTERPRISE. DOUGLAS, GEORGIA. “Just keep the rest for being honest enough to say so,” spoke Sidney. He placed his hand on the shoulder of the man and fixed his glance. “My friend,” lie said, “if hard Unes strike you, and you don’t waver from the straight road, let me know and I’ll give you a helping hand.” 1 “Bless you!” choked out liis, pen sioner, the tears springing to his eyes —“and the young lady!" He paused, about to cross the threshold, and regarded Sidney thoughtfully and hesitatingly. Then he looked ail around the room as if to as sure himself that they were alone. He came nearer to the mayor. “I’ve something to say that iny old pals might call ‘double crossing,’ ” he spoke in a low tone, “but you’ve made me feel like a man and I want to give you a warning. In the jail I met some old puls. They put me wise to a Job you’re interested in.” “Why, how is that?” inquires the puzzled Sidney. “You generally carry a big sum in city funds in that safe yonder, don’t you?” “On occasions,” . admitted Sidney. “What of it?” “Someone’s after it. See here, there’s a part of a city gang hired to tap that strong box some durk night.” “Hired? you mean —” “The man who sentenced me, your justice of the peace here, is behind the scheme." “Mr. Partin? Oh, incredible, man! Don’t tell me that nonsense!” “It’s true,” persisted the man, “uud you’ll he wise if you heed my warn ing.” Sidney Ward sat ruminating over the startling disclosure long after his pensioner had departed. He could not hut disbelieve any connection of Par tin with a scheme of robbery. He had heard that Partin was in narrow ready money straits, hut he decided that, out of hatred toward Partin for sentencing him, Boyce had attempted to cast sus picion upon him. Besides that, Partin had gone to the city for a week a few days previous and this did not look as though he was linked up with any lo cal misdoings. Still, it was best to he on guard, for Boyce had been very earnest in what lie had said. Sidney unlocked the safe. From an inner compartment he re moved a large box envelope containing the entire local tax collection in large denomination bills to be shipped to the county seat the last day of the month. Then, about to close the safe, a queer smile, crossed the face of Sidney. He went over to his desk and fished out a package done up in u newspuper. Opening it, he revealed what looked like thousands and thousands of dol lars in government bank tails. This he placed in the safe, relocked it, went to the bank, found some of the clerks there and placed the money envelope in their charge on a trust receipt. Two nights later the mayor’s office was burglarized, the safe blown open. Two days later three men were arrest ed in a neighboring city for passing counterfeit money. One of them was Gene Partin, and he never returned Somehow the wisdom and prudence of the mayor leaked out and he re ceived an ovation. He told Myra con fidentially of how her part in bringing Boyce to his notice had defeated the looters. “You deserve to be mayor,” he de clared. “You may he mayoress, if you will say the word, Myra. Do I deserve the happiness I crave?” “You could have asked me that question long since,” said Myra. “And you would have said —” “Yes, of course,” answered Myra, and the official lips greeted her loyal ones with the first love kiss. Young but Wise. The old baby crawled along the floor until he came to the side of the crib. Then he pulled himself up until he stood on Ids feet and looked over and down on the new baby. v “Just arrived?” he said. “Yes.” “Weli, let me give you a piece of ad vice. I’ve been hear a couple of months and know the whole game. Don’t be lieve anything you hear, kick off the clothes as much as you can, scream loudly at all hours of the night and make trouble galore for everybody. You are surrounded by criminals. It’s the only way you can get even. My boy, you’re up against it —hard.” The new baby wriggled a toe and looked bored. “Keep your advice to yourself,” he replied. “You’re dotty. By the latest dictum of psychology, the doctrine of nonresistanee is the only thing to prac tice. Go off and mubble to yourself. You belong to a past generation. You’re a back number.” Twisting over calmly, he murmured to himself: “What airs these ancient totterers give themselves!” —Life. Got the Wholesale Price. It took a bartender with a pretty good sense <f humor to pull this one. One day a nondescript individual sauntered iute the barroom where this particular bartender was working and ordered a drink of whisky. The bar tender set cut the whisky glass and the large glass for the chaser. The customer disregarded the small whisky glass and poured the larger glass almost to the top and drank the fiery liquid like so much milk. He then laid a dime down on the bar. The bartender took the coin, rang up a nickel on the cash register and gave him back the change. “Gee, I thought a drink of whisky was a dime here," the stranger said. “Oh, no," returned the bartender. “You see when we sell it like that we give wholesale prices."—Exchange. bOUO MEAT GISHES NONE OF THEM EXPENSIVE BUT ALL ARE APPETIZING.

Paste for Cleaning. Here is something that all house wives do not know: To one pint of boiling water add one and one-half ounces of pure white soap cut into shavings; boil for ten minutes after the soap is thoroughly dissolved. Cool in a china or glass dish. If put into a glass jar and covered tightly It will last two weeks. This paste will cleanse kid gloves and satin slippers, remove spots from woolen goods, and fresh ink stains from carpets. It should be always at hand in the kitchen. Tp re move paint from clothing saturate the spots two or three times with equal parts of ammonia and turpentine and then wash out in white soapsuds. Washing Shirt Waists. When washing shirt waists or mid dies which have colored collar and cuffs, the color will sometimes run into the white goods.
