The butchers say that the housewife' in Topeka does not care inr the cheaper parts of the cow which, they claim, is more nutritious and more tasteful if well handled than the bet ter steaks.

Document, as Redrawn, Will Be Little Changed. BIB FOUR'S WORK NEARLY OVER Premier Orlando and Diaz Leave Paris for Italy. Allies' Reply Will Be Handed to Foe Next Monday. Paris, June 18. The peace treaty with Germany will be entirely rewrit ten and reprinted for the incorpora tion textually of the explanations and clarifications contained in the alleged reply to the German counter propos als. While unchanged In principle vir tually a new document will We pre sented to the Germans. It is understood the new treaty will be made public on the day of its de livery or the day after. The council of four, it deveiops, decided that sim ply to attach the reply to the original document was impracticable, as im portant clauses would be lett obscure and imperfect. Hence the decision te rewrite ihe document. It is comment cd in peace conference circles today that this action renders obsolete tne tsxt r u hushed In the United btates. ltcply to Foe Monday. The reDlv of the allied powers to the Germcn counter proposals to the peace terms is likely to be made public Mon day, according to present plans. It is expected that the text of the German counter proposals which has never been g.ven out also will be made puD lic shortly. The council of four toaay aevotea both of its sessions to the revision of the text of the treaty. When the fore noon session ended the council had sent to the revision commission eigh teen reports. Among those remaining to be passed are several dealing wKh important subjects. Try to Reopen Reparations. The British have made an eleventh hour attempt to reopen the question ot reparations. They have submitted proposals introducing into the func tions of the permanent reparations commission the principle of control of raw materials, etc., furnished Ger many, enabling the commission to control Germany's economic develop ment during the period it operates. The British effort has not met with a sympathetic reception by the repara tions commission to which it was re ferred. It seems improbable that the proposals Will be accepted, but they constitute one of the causes of the delay of the reply o the Germans, wUlch it was rumored today probably would not be presented until Monday. Orlando leaves Paris. Paris, June IS. Premier Orlando and General Diaz left for Rome last night, convinced that the work of the big four is. practically completed and that no more fundamental decisions will be reached by that body concern ins the peace settlement. This actioi- oi; the irt of the Ital ians was assumed to mean that the allied reply to the German peace pro posals would be definitely completed before night. 1'ue Into liCague Soon. The reply. It was learned from an authoritative source, provides for Ger many's admission to the league of nations "witltin a short time." Foreign Miister Sonnino will re place Orlando until the latter returns for the formal .signing of the treaty. Orlando, it was understood, intends to cajl a secret session of the Italian parliament to present a report on the work of the peace conference. In Italian circles here it was re ported today that the Jugo-Slavs hav ing refused the compromise of the Adriatic question drawn up by Colonel House and Andre Tardieu, Orlando wrote to President Wilson, Premier L.loyd George and Premier Clemen ceau, asking strict execution of the pact of London. (The pact of London, drawn up by Italy, Great Brttain, France and Rus sia in 1916 contains no provision re garding Fiume, which has been a bone of contention in the Adriatic ques tion).

There was a re newal in Cardiff, Wales, last night of the race rioting that broke out recent ly between negroes who had been brought into Great Britain as labor ers during the war and the white population. One white man and one Arab were killed and several persons were in jured. Many arrests were made.

A spirit of opti mism was prevalent this morning among government leaders when they boarded a special train for Weimar to'l attend the meeting of the national as sembly, called for tomorrow. The canse for this sudden reversion of sentiment could not be ascertained, as the leaders refused to comment di rectly on the peace situation. The heightened spirits of this group were rendered more surprising by the fact that the lesser delegates on the train maintained the air of gloom that has characterized their attitude for weeks, and every member who could be pre vailed upon to talk declared he had not swerved from his determination to oppose signing the treaty unless im portant modifications are made.

The brokers' division of the Teleg raphers' union, which has some 2,000 members, will hold meetings in the east and the west probably tonight to decide whether they should strike In sympathy, Konenkamp stated.

The Kansan took the same number of strokes on the out round having three pars and two birdies. On the second half Bonebrake be came worse, taking 45 strokes for the return Journey with only two holes in par while Bockenkamp came home in another 38, including four pars and a birdie. Whitney in his match with Nugent went out in 37, only one over par, while the Kansas City player starting with a bad seven required 42 for the first nine and turned 3 down to the southern expert.

COPY IS HOT HERE Kansas All Ready for Ratlfica- tion of Suffrage." Bnt Papers HaTent Arriyed for Official Action. MANY WOULD UNLOAD BILLS Something Must Be Done to Place Lid on Session. Work Should Be Bone by Early Monday Afternoon. Special session troubles have ar rived. Kansas has never received her cer titled copy of the national suffrage amendment. Apparently almost all other states have received copies, but none have reached Kansas state de. partments. Today there is real con cern in. the state house regarding the matter. The legislature comes to To peka Monday to ratify the amendment and as yet there is nothing officially in the hands of Governor Allen or L. J. Pettljohn, secretary ot state, for ratification. In an effort to overcome the situa tion. Governor Allen has sent a tele gram to Washington asking that some one show a little speed. Not only have state officials failed to receive the certfied copy of the federal con stitutional amendment, but no one in the state house has a copy of the resolution which passed congress. -Must Follow the Text. When the state legislature meets in Topeka Monday it must follow the text of the federal amendment In its ratification resolution. The matter is more complicated than may appear. In Illinois this week the state legisla- ture was compelled to take two turns at the wheel before a perfectly sound and legal resolution was adopted. Some one found a hole in the first resolution and the Illinois lawmakers did their work all over again. Kan sas legislators are anxious that no chances be taken in this state. Another brand of possible trouble next week was laid before flovernna Allen today when he conferred with Senators Walter K. Wilson and Ben 6. Paulen. It was apparent that none of the members of the session availnble at this time have ever participated in a. special session. The detailed plan procedure was for this reason a matter of concern. It is the purpose of administration members to prepare the entire special session program in advance that nothing may slip when quick action la taken on the amend ment, i Mnny Have Spertal Bills."-'' Many members are anxious to Intro duce special bills at the session Mon day. Once the bars are let down, how ever, there is a belief that the session may continue a week or ten days. For this reason, efforts are being made to induce members to confine action to the one purpose specified in the gov- -ernor's call. If the lid can be glarruned on intro duction of bills, the rin:inttrn(ion workers believe that the legislature, which convenes Monday noon, will conclude its work by mid-afternoon. plandFive ON I. w. w.

MINTIN U.S. PRISON Prisoners at LeaYenworth Eyen Used Federal Presses. Biggest Counterfeiting Scheme Known In 'History. PASS $60,000 IN BAD CHECKS All Happened in Disciplinary Barracks Before Guards. Officers Peacefully Ignorant of 31 en's Actions. Leavenworth, Kan., June 13. ninht onrier the nnaea. of armed guards, and within the walls of the j United States disciplinary barracks at Fort Leavenworth. Kan., was con cocted what- !s believed to be the big- j gest counterfeiting scheme known in the history of the United Statea se cret service. Prisoners working in the printing office of the barracks used the government presses to print hundreds of bogus checks on the United States subtreasuries at New Orleans, Boston and New York. The scheme is now uncovered, and many of the alleged perpetrators' are under arrest, thru the efforts of Fred M. Tate and James A. Savage, secret service operatives of the Kansas City, office, co-operated with by other se cret service men In the east. Passed $60,000 in Checks. And, as a result of the illicit work of the government printing presses, the public has been swindled out of approximately $60,000, maybe more; for all the checks may not have j turned up. I m The surprising feature of the' scheme is that, with so many men involved, some inkling of the work did not leak, out from within the prison. But it did not, guards stand ing dumbly by and prison officers peacefully ignorant, thruout the prog-! ress of the work. Used "Safety Paper." Some time ago a large amount of government cheek paper, called "safety paper." was received at the prison. It was to be used for the printing of checks to be given men working on the prison farm. But the paper was not used, plans being changed before the paper was printed. It was locked up in the prison. Some of the men working in the print shop located the paper, got a key to the place where it was kept, and stole It. With consistent regularity prisoners have been escaping from the barracks. Some of them carried a supply of the counterfeit subtreasury warrants but with them, pinned to their under clothing. And finally, the checks be gan to appear at business houses. To make detection difficult, the fake could not be discovered until the checks were sent to the sub-treasuries. This gave the passers about two weeks in which to make their getaway. First Cheek Passed in K. C. The first check to be called te the attention of Tate- and Savage was passed on a tire company in Kansas City. They saw it was printed on government safety paper," and the description of the man who passed it agreed with that of Robert Jones, an escaped prisoner from the barracks. Savage went to the barracks and com pared the signature with that of Jones on prison record papers. They were similar. On the service record of Jones appeared the name of hia wife, who at the time of his enlistment in 1917 was living in Chicago. The secret service men at Chicago were notified, kept watch on the house and mail of Mrs. Jones, and, finally, last Friday, arrested Jones. From this point, the going became easier, and other arrests followed quickly, all kept secret to prevent con federates from learning of them. In Many Cities. But before fhe arrest of Jones. Tate and Savage spent sleepless nisrhts run ning down false clews. Another man, whose description fitted that of Jones, was trailed to Chicago, closely ques tioned and finally released. And checks began appearing rapidly in other cities St. Louis. Kansas' City. Detroit, Cleveland. Buffalo, Boston and New York. And, finally, one was caberi at to Leavenworth, Kan., bank, bearing the mine oi an omcer at tne prison and so closely resembling his signature that the bank teller pronounced it gen uine. So many conflicting descrintlnna of the nfen who passed the checks were given as to convince the secret service men several were working. Expect Indictments in Kansas. Warrants for all of these men well as several others, whose names are withheld, have been Issued fev rred Robertson, United States district attorney for Kansas. All the men will oe tan en back to Kansas to await probable Indictment on charges of counterfeiting or conspiracy to coun- lenen government subtreasurv war rants. Tate said last night he expected fath er arrests to be made aoon. STILL TALKING WAR F'of'h find Clemenceau Discuss Re sumption of Hostilities. Paris. June 18. Marshal Foch and General Weygand had two confer ences Wednesday with Premier Clem enceau at which they discussed the question of an Immediate resumption of hostilities and a concerted advance by the allies, says Marcel Hutin in the i.cno oe raris. The general opinion is that Count von Brockdorff-Rantzau has com mitted mmseif too far to be able to sign the treaty. It is also believed that the Scheidemann ministry will be swept away to make room for a ministry of moderate independent so cialists which will be joined by Mathias Jj.rzoerger. chairman of the German armistice commission. This ministry it is aeciarea would be disposed to accept the allied conditions which it probably would do about July 1. CONTINUE KANSAS STATION Welcome Headquarters In N. Y. To Stay Open All Summer.

SEE A FILIBUSTER Senate Leaders Predict Close Yota on Knox Measure. Democrats Will Oppose 4Sepa- rating League and Treaty. CALL UP RESOLUTION TUESDAY Say Measure Will Speed Peace, Kot Hurt League, i Capper, a Republican, Claimed by League Supporters. Washington, June- 14. An ex tremely close vote, with the result In doubt, "was the forecast -today of sen ate leaders discussing probable fate of the Knox resolution designed to separate the league of nations from the peace treaty proper. Senator Knox announced he would probably call up the resolution next Tuesday and deliver a prepared speech on it. His effort to have the senate consider it would be opposed to the utmost, administration leaders said to day. This opposition may start a long filibuster. Call Vote an Indicator. The vote upon a motion to call up the resolution will be accepted by both sides, senators said today, as very sig nificant, reflecting the senate's view of the resolution itself. -If a majority can be obtained for a motion to lay the resolution before the senate, Knox and his supporters will virtually feel. tney indicated toaay, .mat tney can pass 'the resolution. They count on changing votes by their speeches. In which they plan to show i that the resolution wili: Speed up completion of peace negoti ations. Assure the American people of a referendum on t'ne league. Work no Injury to the lpague, "er prevent its immediate formation. Serve notice ou the pence conference exactly bow the senate stands, so tbat it may know wbnt to expect when the treaty comes here tor ratification. Knox believes these arguments will anneal to Republican senators who are wavering between support of the league and the unmistakable senti ment of the majority of their party colleagues. Capper Will Oppose. Senators McNary, Norris, Capper, Spencer and Colt were claimed today by league supporters as the Republi cans certain to vote against the Knox resolution. If- they have made up their minds to do so, they decline IP commit themselves. 4 Senator McCumber is. so far, the only Republican who is definitely aligned against it, but the others mcai tloned are all friendly to the league. Senators Chamberlain, Reed -.and Gore are some of the Democrats claimed by the Knox forces They are equally non-committal, except Reed, who la for the Knox measure In his speech on the resolution Knox will declare, he says,.-hat ihe senate has a clear Fight ts advise the president during the progress of peace negotiations, and will cfte precedents. The view is disputed by Democrats. But Senator Knox1 will add, even tho there were no precedents for such a view, the present treaty so far tran scends in importance anything In the past that precedents cannot limit the senate in making what it believes to be the right decision from the Ameri can viewpoint.

The materials are exceptionally good ginghams and per cales in light, medium and dark effects; plain colors. stripes, ehecks and plaids.

Washing. -.-in, U. 0. The cutting off of heavy expendi jres made necessary by the war, In ludlng the discharge of more than talf of the military forces, seems to .iave little effect on the outlay by the .reasury. The nation's public debt cached a new high mark of $25,921, 1(1,270 at the end of May, an Increase it $1,096,640,750 during the month. Ordinary disbursements in May imounted to $907,492,920, only slight y less than the $1,068,203,020 in the 'ime month last year. The prediction is made by the Man ufacturers' Record that before next ear the labor shortage will be so great that business men and farmers will be scrambling for men. With an enormous wheat crop assured, at 'high prices for the farmer;- with general improvement in all agricultural con ditions; with highway work getting tinder way on a very large scale; with i marked revival of general construc tive activities; with a heavy emigra tion and but little immigration, It ar ;ues, the labor situation will soon De fine acute. Bo the Bull Mooss are planning to ..omlnate Hiram Johnson for the presidency on the Republican ticket. I'robably they could not have selected a candidate better fitted to reopen the chasm of 1912, which had apparently been closed. Republican voters can hardly fail to remember what John son did to Hughes. Of course, the same sort of thing was condoned by the Republicans of Kansas, abut it may be that Kansas Republicans, are more forgiving than those of other -"tates. The unfvisdom of government own ership was strikingly stated by Vice 1'resident Marshall in a recent address at Atlantic City when he said: "I am unalterably opposed to government ownership of anything the govern ment does not have to have. The real weakness ef government ownership of anything is that there is nobody to russ, nobody to sue and nobody to re ward. I never knew much good to come out of anything in which men hud no hope of reward or honor." The allies are reported to he trying to take our German ships away from us. They seem determined that we shall have nothing out of the war ex cept glory and the League of Nations. The American Federation of Labor convention. In session at Atlantic City, has taken up the matter of resump tion of the building program projected by the government. Plans have been made and appropriations voted for scores of federal buildings thruout the country and not a move is being made toward their erection. The govern ment is urging everybody else to build but is doing nothing along that line it self. It Is presumed that these build ings are needed or they would not have been provided for. If Uncle Sam desire to start a building boom he should set an example. The formation of the League of Na tions may Justly be regarded, says the "Review," as a great step toward thai freeing of mankind from the incubus of war. That it will be accepted and that it ought to be accepted, possibly with some reservation on the part of the United States which shall not weaken Its essential character there Is little reason to doubt. It might have been made better if its structure had been determined in more tran quil and deliberative fashion after the necessary terms of immediate settle ment had been fixed; but such as it is-. It enlists the governments and the peo ples of the world in' an undertaking to work together for the prevention of war, and provides permanent machin ery for the carrying out of that under taking. That it falls far short .of that solid barrier against war which- "the organized major force of. mankind' could conceivably provide. Its staunch est friends can not deny; but neither can the most severe of Us critics main tain that it is but a Hague convention writ large. It is vastly more than that; whether it will function well or ill, it is at all events, an organic entity, a thine that will function. A DITTY WEAR AT HAND. Under the terms of the Monroe Doc trine, if the United States were called upon to protect Mexico from a foreign foe, she would do it without hesitation. Just as she did a half century ago. Why then should not the United States protect the Mexicans from them selves? The allies are asking us to become the mandatory for Armenia. We have work of that sort much nearer home, which should be done, and doubtless European nations would be glad to have us take the matter in hand. We hear a great deal nowadays of solicitude for humanity. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent to feed the oppressed people of Europe; our soldiers are fighting to prevent an ele ment in Russia from continuing its career of destruction. But thru it all we remain blind to the fact that Just across our borders in Mexico are over 15.000.000 people who have been the prey of conscienceless bandits for over a hurdred years, with but brief pe riods cf relief. Kverything points to an indefinite continuation of that state of af'airs. yet not a word do we hear of a move on our part to end it. Little has been heard from there for the past two or three years, not be cause the government has become more stable or more widely accepted by the population, but because of the overshadowing importance of the war in Europe. Now almost every day brings stories of continued upheavals in. Mexico. It la said that the Car ran la government is tottering to its fall, and that Villa is gaining strength for a renewal of his attacks on some of the principal cities of northern Mex ico. It is evident that the coming years are to see but a continuation of the guerilla warfare that, since the ab dication of Diaz, has brought the country to the political, economic and social degradation that now prevails. Those who rule temporarily in Mex ico,' and those who seek their lover throw, are all actuated by the same motives and hesitate at nothing calcu lated to accomplish their ends. Pos session of the seat of government for purposes of loot Is the ambition of ev ery leader. To forward its cause each party in turn has sought to curry fa vor with the United States. First it- was Huerta. Then came Villa, Next Carranza got the upper hand and con trol of the capital city, and we has tened to recognize his government and send him an ambassador. Now Villa is gaining prominence once more, and making serious efforts to ingratiate himself with our officials at Washington, while increasing his control in Mexico and threatening Car ranza. THE NEW LEVEL OF PRICES. "A new level of prices lias been es tablished, from which there can be no material recession until inventive gen ius succeeds In correspondingly in-, creasing labor's productive capacity by mechanical means,' declares J. Og den Armour, and adds: "The manu facturer who now quotes the lowest possible price consistent with the high cost of labor, and guarantees thia to be so, doing his buying freely on the same basis, ranks as our highest type of patriotic citizen." The greatest danger to Our economic structure today, Mr. Armour holds, arises from the failure of many to rec ognize a new and higher level of prices, based on permanently Increased cost of labor, and high taxation. Those who postpone building or buying In the hope of materially lower prices, are speculating in the future misfor tune of the nation. For falling prices, when reaching the point where profit is eliminated, mean panic, depression, unemployment, and other troubles. In the final analysis 75 per cent or more of the cost of most commodities consists of labor, and reductions in the market price of commodities are, therefore. Inevitably reflected in the compensation of labor. Nothing in the labor situation warrants any one in expecting materially lower cost of commodities in general, and building in particular. Wages will not be less for several' fundamental reasons, Mr. Armour points out, among which are: The practical stoppage of immigra tion since 1914, depriving America of the several million workers who would normally have come to our shores. The- retention by the nation's mili tary, and naval establishments of near ly 2.000,000 workers, which may con tinue for an indefinite period. The creation of new industries, such aa shipbuilding, and manufacture of chemicals and dyes, requiring hun dreds of thousands of workers. The urgent demand for building and construction of every class, due to their having been forcibly held bark for several years. The shortage of the 'world's food supply. The proportionately higher levels of commodity prices existing practically an over jturope. On the one hand, then, we are fac ing a serious shortage of labor as soon as we approach normal Industrial ac tivity, and on the other hand there Is confronting us a tremendous, unsatis fied demand for many necessities which it was difficult or impossible to obtain during the war. Normally under such conditions we could have expected a flood ef low priced goods from the old world, while now we find that prices In Eu rope have risen proportionately much higher than in America, and the de mand for commodities and labor, to make up for the wastage of war. Is even mere. keenly felt there than here. EVENING STORY Demoted Up. BT VIRGINIA LYNCH MAXWELL. Somehow Janet's mother could not quite forget the stigma which she ac cused her daughter of putting on the family name when she married Gerald Cummings, their neighbor's chauffeur. 4'Janet, my child, do you realize what you have done?" she remem bered her mother saying with an awe stricken face when they both came back from the short honeymoon trip, and Janet's family had since had time to digest the telegraphed news. And Janet, then a girl of twenty, had faced her mother resolutely. "Of course I know what I've done, mother. I've married the best man in the world." "What's the use?" Mrs. Hemingway complained that same evening when Janet's father looked in at the young people seated in the drawing room, and smiled knowingly. "Janet is too young to know that she has committed a grave social error In marrying beneath her class," Mrs. Hemingway continued. "And as for the man she chose, well he will never be anything but a chauffeur." Mr. Hemingway waved his hand In disgust. "Let them be, Sara," he ad monished his wife. "Netty loves the boy, and by all appearances he is in' love with our little Netty, so why all the fuss?" But the idea rankled in Mrs. Hem ingway's mind for a long while after. Janet took a firm stand! They fur nished a comfortable, tho plain little flat and began to live the "happy ever after" period of their lives. True, the furnishings of the modest flat did not compare with the cheapest in the Hemingway household, but as Janet reminded her mother, "Wasn't it the love behind a household that made It a home, and not the mere material things?" And after that Mrs. Hemingway de cided, to let the matter rest. Two years later found Janet and Gerald more comfortably established than ever.- Gerald had got a better position in an automobile firm and the work gave him more regular hours. But there was a lot of study entailed. Gerald, within a short time, became an expert mechanician and got another raise. It was not money, however, that finally bred the sore spot in Janet's heart that had been forming uncon sciously for months. It was her mother'a silent influence. She never said anything about the affair ever since the day of Janet's last outburst, but the silent influence was there Just the same. Once when she had invited a num ber of girl friends to tea Janet's mother very untactfully displayed the fact that her daughter had no tele phone,, and pressed for a reason by her inquisitive friends, Janet had lied calmly that it was a source of annoy ance. The truth of the matter was they could not quite afford it. Janet was on the verge of utter discouragement, altho there was no real cause for it except this subtle in fluence preening for the sake., of a false pride. The foundation of their little home was at stake! The bomb came- in a few evenings later. "Well, sweetie," Gerald said coming m eninusiasticaily, "I'm going the hlg day has come, Netty girl, when our country is calling all its red bloods, and I enlist tomorrow." "You what?" Janet could scarcely Deiieve nis words, "jerry boy, tell me you are fooling. You are why she laughed frivolously and turned away as tho to belittle the idea as a mere passing fancy. The next moment she turned toward her husband again. But the expres sion on his chiseled features made her realize there was no Joking to it. "I'm going, Netty, surely you're glad. Don't stand there-and gaze as tho I were mad. Don't you realize what it means. Going over to protect you, other women, over there and over here. Gad girl But Janet had stopped him with her gesture. "You are mad. Stark mad she burst out angrily, "how can you go when you have me to take care of. You know married men don't have to go. What are you thinking of and we Just being able to see a horizon financially now?" And so they argued into the late hours of that evening. Twice Gerald Cummings walked to the front win dow and peered down at the throng of men who were besieging the enlist ment offices on the corner. He pointed them out to Janet, but she was impassive. "Mad men," she remarked, and shrugged her shoul ders. And the final issue came about the next morning. Gerald was firm. "War is a duty between a man and his God," he said hotly, "not a man and his wife." Just enough to kindle the" flame. Janet blazedgher brown eyes upon him and replied, "Well, if you sro. Gerald. you go for good. If you are that stub born and care for me so little, it's best we anow it now. You go, Gerald, and ana well, we part ways." Gerald tried a conciliation, but it was futile. He decided to go! A dull period of monotony followed for Janet at the Hemingway estab lishment, where she had taken refuge after Gerald had gone to camp. But the loneliness of the days she had hitherto filled to the brim with her many household cares seemed to pall. Janet must do something. And so because Anne Dawson was going into the navy as a yeomanette, Janet de cided to take up stenography and go, too. But she was disappointed. Several weeks after she graduated from the business school in the heart of town an order came thru for stenographers at the gas defense plant on Long Is land. She hesitated. Anne was ap pointed in the navy. But could she not do the same bit In the army? Her selfishness in merely wanting to be with her girl friend came to her in full realization one morning when she had seen the first transport of wounded soldiers land, and she hast ened to the plant to offer her services. Janet, with the knack of her fath er's aptitude for business, got along exceedingly welL Meantime the war ra?ed at its fiercest. Battles came thicker and more often, and the yell of the newsies' husky voices on the street corner at every new edition of the big metropolitan daily made Janet's flesh creep. Yes, she had read of Gerald's wonderful deed. She had followed every line of the account ef how he had saved a whole squadron, by repairing the motor am bulances so rapidly. Janet knew that a new and greater love had come into her life. There was a change, too, in her parents' view. Janet's mother, all conciliatory and one of the chief work ers at the War Camp Community Serv ice, said she always knew there were big things in "Jerry." But Janet had cried herself to sleep that night. In vain she wrote letters abroad. If only she knew his definite address. She had read where he had been I wounded, but no hospital number was given. The Red Cross took down the data, she was able to supply them, scant as they were, for she had refused even to see him the day he graduated from the training camp and was or dered over. That was months before, and abit- ter repentance grew in her heart be cause of it- She had been selfish, narrow minded and vain. The words she had uttered that day he had en listed burned and seared like blue flame now. But morning banished all the tears. Just because there was work to be done, and Janet, dainty from the feather In her little trig hat to her neatlv nolished shoes, went to the plant to take her place among its many other workers. It was her last trip this day, for orders awaited, her to report in Washington. A word of thanks to her captain for recommending her as most capable, a hastily packed traveling bag, a host of imagination ana Janet was on her way to the great center from which radiated so many executive spokes of the world's war. It was glorious! But the old feeling returned to quell her enjoyment every now and then on the train trip going down. "Mrs. Cummings sergeant Mun- sev read a day later from her slip to the lieutenant sitting at the huge oak desk to his right. And Janet had tim idly acknowledged the title and mounted the stairway to the next floor with him. "Vnn r to work for the major, are you not?" he asked, and Janet said she had not Deen torn. lea, continued Sergeant Munsey, "the, new major arrived yesterday. I guess, you'll like him all right, with -J his flashy smile and good humor always. So much as we have seen of him I don't wonder he was so popular with his men But thev had reached the doorway of the major's office and Sergeant Munsey stopped. A somewhat ralnt yet emotional Janet wheeled the next moment and sat heavily in the chair the major offered. The shoulders had looked familiar, and, yes, the head. But it was preposterous. And yet "Thank you, sergeant," Major Cum mings said quietly. "I will swear the little lady in, you need not wait." "Swear me In Janet said a Dt breathlessly -as she turned her wide eyes, radiant but tear-dimmed with happiness on her- husband, Jerry. "Why, yes a mere custom of the service, Mrs. Cummings," he said haughtily, "but and there, was a note of the Jerry who used to be, "but if you wish," he smiled this time, "I'll swear you in for life." And as Gerald expressed it av. few weeks later when the armistfee was signed and they both got their honor able discharges, it was the first time he had ever kissed a stenographer the first day he engaged her, and the very first time he had ever taken one out to lunch the same day. -(Copyright, 1919, by the McClure News paper Syndicate.)

We have been trying to get a cer tain man on the phone for three months, and nine times he has been "in conference" and twenty-seven times "out to lunch. He has been "out to lunch" at 10 o'clock in the morning and -8 o'clock in the afternoon, being a man, we take it, with a ninety horsepower appetite. Finally, we evolved a beautiful plan. It so happened that we knew the Jani tor of the building In which this hardy trencherman has his office. We de cided to find out at once whether this man was putting one over on us. We would ask friend Janitor. Bubbling over with excitement, we called the switchboard in the building at 3 o'clock one afternoon and asked for the Janitor. "Sorry," said the girl, "but the Jani tor is out to lunch." One astute observer remarks that no matter what happens in Paris, it will be a hard Job to do away with secret diplomacy in bone-dry Washington as long as the foreign embassies remain wet.

Guest. INTERNATIONAL T SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON BX WILLIAM T. ILLU. For June 15 "Prayer." Luke v. 18:1-5, 9-U. The Look That Lifts Life. In the east beggars abound. Many are of a squalor and abjectlveness that passes the knowledge of the west. It is a favorite device in Egypt for begging children to go about almost entirely naked. Another trick is for them to sit hunched up in rags, head between knees, in apparently speech less misery, alongside of a wall on a popular thorofare. The prevalence of mendicancy in these oldest parts of the world is one of the sights that sadden travelers' eyes. Jesus knew these beggars, and healed some of (hem. But he never held them up as a type of. prayer. That an important point to per ceive in taking up the .old, yet ever exhaustless subject of prayer. All our understanding of prayer depends upon how we regard- it. It is not men dicacy. God never portrayed his chil dren as beggarsott his gate. He is not a detached, impersonal Giver of alms. The attitude of the person who prays is rather that of a child toward a father, than of a beggar whining for aharity. Of his unfathomable boun ty, God has given man the right to a filial relationship with himself. He abates no Jot of his ef fable sover eignty; nevertheless, he teaches us to say "Our Father." Over and over again hla tender truth is taught. The analogy of the parent is employed to make clear the Idea that God's thoughts toward us are father-thoughts; and that he seeks from us. the loving, dependent rela tionship of children. "Like aa a fa ther pitieth his children, o the Lord pitieth them that fear him." When we pray, we are turning, as naturally, properly and instinctively as children to a father, to One whose love is as great as his power; and who has Joy in granting the requests of his chil dren. The Up-Looking Life. The Epworth League has for its motto, "Look up, lift up." That is to say. ability for service results from devotion. Prayer precedes power. It is the uplooking life, -the one that views all experiences in their heaven ward relationship, which walks- most serenely and helpfully among men. Prayer, is ah act; but it is also an- at titude r-the Godward turning of -the soul at all times. This spirit reverent ly and modestly takes God into account- In- its daily affairs. Nothing; "happens" to it: all is ordered by a benign and wise Providence. Would we know the secret- of the placid, beautiful faces that we occa sionally meet; of the spirits that are unrutriea by the, daily-trials; of the joy that -does not -languish on the dreariest road? This ia the answer: these are the upward-looking souls. Their sense of God is so real, and He is to them so near, that nothing less matters? vitally. -They are at- peace, because they are ever in prayer. Life is to them a continual "looking unto Jesus."" Onlr yesterday, off here 4n Egypt, I visited a veteran American mission ary who is confined to his bed by ill ness. It chanced to be a day of great anxiety for him, as for his associates. There have been developments In the Egyptian -crisis that may turn the na tive sentiment against all things Amer ican, to the serious injury of the mis sion work that ha.s been- building up for three-quarters of a century. Was that veteran excited or. fretted Not at all. His smile was. as serene, his face as untroubled as has been its wont thruout the- -years. He Jtas a. watchful eye upon current events: but he also has a trustful eye upon the Ruler of events. He walks quietly and beautifully among men because he talks confidently with his Father in heaven. Getting Relations Right. Perhaps some "practical" persons say that this is a" "dry" ssbject that the International committee has as signed for the present lesson; they would rather have a discussion of cur rent problems. Wait a moment. Much as I should like to see all intelligent persons aware of the world and the current vexatious questions, hard as I am working to interpret fairly and without bias the complex and- ominous Near Eastern situation-, I say frankly that I deem it of far more practical importance for people to get a fresh hold upon the reality of God than to master all the intricacies of oriental statecraft; and I would do or say any thing within my power that would send Christian people to their knees in renewed devotion. There is no meas ure in the universe more "practical" at the present time than that men and women should pray, "pray with out ceasing." only as we lay hold on God can we get any mastery of social and political conditions that grow more ominous. If there is one bad idea that ought not to persist after the world war it is that more physical force Is the ultimate solution of problems. That is a pagan notion, which should have dis appeared from the present generation when the might of Germany was broken. This belief in the omnipotence of the guns is one of the world's greatest dangers. So is trust In mere statecraft and wordly guile. What a muddle these have made of the na tions! From this angle, it seems to be growing worse, instead of better. Our times are out of ioint. The machinery of civilization is knocking anu Hanging ana raining. Bometning has gone wrong. What is it? Noth ing less than that it lacks adjustment at the Center. Once let the world get right with God, and it will straight way get right with itself. A fresh con sciousness of spiritual obligations and relationships would solve all our ques tions. A return to God would be a re turn to sanity and safety. If we could only get men to saying together in sin cerity "Our Father," there would be no need of treaties. Short of that, permanent and real peace is not com ing to this old earth. The woman or man who is leading a group of per sons, preferably children, to an under standing of the true place of God in every life is contributing most direct ly to the solution of the vast perplex ities of our day. In the Statesman's Role. Hopeful new enterprises are afoot for a united world-service by Chris tians of all names. Thank Ood for every one of them! Would that be hind all else, and comprehending all else, there might be a mighty cove nant of prayer among all Christians -not a new- organization or enrolment, but. a general diffusion of purpose to pray daily, and often every day. In private as well as in public and at the family altar, for the coming of the kingdom of God among men. Ambitious spirits are eager to go to foreign lands to have a personal share in shaping the new., conditions. The shortest route of all is via the throne of God. One may directly and power fully affect the course of events in Asia and Africa by way of the prayer closet. The lowliest and most seques tered Christian may thru prayer play a statesman's role -in the remaking of the world. More than it needs editor ials or speeches or commissions or ex perts, this present mass of human so ciety needs the Divine help that may be insured by sincere prayer.- The Secret Tryst. Two characteristics of the prayer that counts are set forth in the day's Scripture lesson. One is the story of the widow who kept on asking until she received. There is an importunity that God will not deny. All persisting prayer prevails. In God's own way. When a man is really in love with a woman, he will not be denied tho she say him ray thru long years. There flash across my memory the stories of friends, now happily married, who re fused ao accept repulse at the hands of the women they loved. God prizes that kind of wooer for his favor. He asks patience and continuance in prayer as proof of a faith that will not be de nied. Any boon from on high is worth waiting long years to receive. True prayer keeps on praying until it knows itself answered. The other incident in the lesson, pic tures two men at prayer; one a Pharisee, correct In posture and phrase, publicly displaying his devo tions; the other, a despised taxgath erer off in a corner scarcely daring to lift his eyes, and murmuring only, "God be merciful to me a sinner!" One prayed to be seen of men, and therein had his reward; the other prayed to be heard of God ,and God heard him. Prayer is not a pose nor a parade. It is not an affair for the public eye; but, rather for the hidden ear of God. Prayer is a secret tryst with a loving Father. No man may know the soul's supplication: that is a personal mys tery, sacred beyond all revealing. Barren indeed is the life which does not have its unsearched spaces where it holds rendezvous with God. Out of that holy seclusion springs strength for all public life and endeavor.

I also noticed that Mrs. Carter! had heard the remark, and had glanced sharply at Neil as if to probe the meaning of what she did not understand. I tried to talk naturally, and Fred erick immediately followed my lead. Then Neil pulled -himself together, and the remainder of the luncheon passed off pleasantly. Aunt and I left as soon as we finished, leaving the two men smoking. I had pro posed going so that they might talk business if they wished. I wanted Frederick to believe in Neil, I could n't help but wish he would go in with Neil on some of his deals. I was sure it would be a help to my 'husband in every way If only he could be asso ciated with a man so bluntly honor able in every way as was Kendall Frederick. "What' did Mr. Frederick mean when he said that he wouldn't go in with those men Neil mentioned? What kind of men are they?" "I do not know them, aunt, I never have met either one of them." I was glad to be able to say so honestly, "But surely Neil talks of his affairs to you. You must know if his asso ciates are all right." "No Neil talks very little of his business affairs at home. He says the office is the place for business, not the home." "In a sense he is right, yet often a woman's intuition Is a help to a man. I rather liked that Mr. Frederick, what do you know of him?" "Oh, we have known him a long time! He is always Just as you saw him today. A plain blunt man, but straightforward and honest. He is very wealthy, and I can't help wish ing he would become interested with Neil. He ia older and would be a good Influence," I added, knowing aunt would wonder why -I was so anxious. "But you speak, Bab, as if Neil needed some good influence. You aren't worried over anything in con nection with him are you?" "No aunt that is not particularly. jThe George Matthew Ad ams THE SVNNY SIDE. There are two aides to life the Sunny Side and the other side.

You must know that by what he has accomplished since we have been married. I don't believe there's another man his age in all New York who has made his money, not inherited It, that has done as well. You see if one inherits money they always have capital, but NeU had nothing. Just a few hundred dollars he had saved." "Yes. he -has done wonders. But he was always very bright. His mother was a very clever woman. He -in herits many of her traits," -pride of family in her voice. I tried to change the subject' by talking ot tne different places of in terest we passed, but something seemed to have aroused aunt s-suspicion that everything was not quite all right for she returned again to the subject of Neil's business, and asked me many questions, some of which I could not answer, others which I did not care to. "Have you visited Neil's new of fice? He was telling me he had late ly taken a n.ore commodious one?' she questioned. "Yes, I have been there once.'' T do not go ften, there is no reason why I should," I replied, blushing to think of what had occurred because of my visit' "I should like to stop and see it, if you nave time." "Certainly. We can stop off, then walk up the Avenue to the theater. We shall have plenty of time." We were going to a matinee. When we reached the office the blonde stenographer was so frankly surprised to see us that she amused me immensely. I told her she could go right on with her work, that we had no wish to interrupt her, and that we would look around by ourselves. She had risen as If to accompany us when .1 said to aunt that we would go into Neil's private office. Fortunate ly he had net locked the door when he left. "This is sumptuous!" Aunt ex claimed, seating herself in one of the large leather chairs, while I took the swivel one at the desk. I had caught a glimpse of an envelope addressed in bold but fashionable chirography. Per haps 1 might happen on to something I wanted to Know. "Yes, Neil has very good taste," I re plied. quietly drawing the envelope toward me as I spoke of the fine view from the windows. (Tomorrow Bab appropriates a letter she sees upon Neil's office desk.) i kills them whereas beauty And hap piness and success and all good and great things scamper for first place on the Sunny Side. There is always a Sunny Side. Some times, we get to going so far on the other side that our eyes lose track of the fact that just across the street there is a happier crowd living on the Sunny Side. It costs no more to think, and smile and work on the Bunny Side. And It's more inviting over there. The thrills of life live longest on the Sunny Side. Hope grows fastest and health becomes greatest on the Sunny Bide. There is always room on the Sunny Side. The Great Somebody always sees that as the crowd Increases there, the space is widened. It's like the fact that there is always room at the top. Somehow or ether everybody on the Sunny Side wants everybody else over there with them. toe. Why not the Sunny Side? DOROTHY DLX TALKS BT DOROTHY DIX World's Hit-heat Paid Woman Writer. Spruce Vp! 1. Listen, women! The government is making a last appeal to you for help, and it's Just as much your duty to respond to it as it was to observe meatless and. wheatless days, and put your new hat money into thrift stamps, and roll bandages, or do ftny of the other things that you did during- the war, and that' showed Uncle Sam that he could depend on his daughters just as surely as he could upon his sons. And this new duty is to help the returning soldiers get Jobs. You will say that you are pot an employer of labor, that you don't hire even a kitchen maid. That is true. But you are the great Indirect employer of la bor because you are the power behind the man who hires the worker. Did you ever stop to think that women lust plain, ordinary, moder ately well-to-do women like yourself really have the handling and the spending of all the money in the world, and that these women domi nate industry? Except for his vices and his outside clothes, the aver age man doesn't spend a dollar of what he earns. It's his wife who de cides on the house they buy, the kind of an automobile they keep, the piano they purchase. It is she who buys the groceries and the furniture and the wall paper, and picks out the schools the children attend, and selects the doctor they call In, and the dentist who takes care of their teeth. That was why the government called on the women to save when it needed billions for the war. and It is why it calls on them now to spend all that they can reasonably afford. At one time It was necessary not only to conserve the money, but to take every man that could be spared out of non-essential Industries. Now It ia necessary to put these men back at work, -and enable them to earn- money again, and it is the women who can do the trick. The soldiers are coming back now at the rate of three or four hundred thousand a month. Before they went away these men followed every sort of trade and occupation. They were painters and paperhangers, and car penters and bricklayers, and clerk and bookkeepers, and office men, and. doctors and lawyers, and what not. i They gave up good Jobs, without a. backward look of regret, when their country called them. Not all of the heroes are those who died upon, the battlefield, or who come back to us maimed. The man who, after a hard and bitter struggle, had Just gotten his business so It was prospering and paying, or the man who had Just climbed tip in his office to a place of power and Influence, who locked the door of his shop, or shut down the top of his desk, and went away to fight for you and me, did just as brave and gallant a thing as any fel low who went ever the top.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURN L FRIDAY; EVENING. JUNE 1 13, 1919 9 SPORT NOTES FANS UMN AIR Dempsej-WIllard Match Has Boxing Authorities Stumped. Young Giant Joins Jess's Camp as Sparring Partner. Toledo. O.. June IS. With tha heavyweight championship contest be tween Jesa Willard and Jack Demp. ey set tor decision three weeks from today, sporting authorities at the bat tleground today are frankly at a loss to select their favorite. All are agreed that probably no, heavyweight cham pionship contest sine the memorable battle between Jamea J. Corbett and John L. Sullivan has created such a variance of opinion; Sentiment seems 16 change every day. Willard. after an impressive workout, may become the favorite one day but the next may find sentiment switching to his youthful challenger. Want to see Him Flglit. "Wait until we see how Willard works in his training bouts a week before the match," invariably la the answer of all acknowledged boxing ex perts. Willard is finishing the second week of his aerioua preparation vastly im proved and there seems little doubt. In the opinion of experts, that he will be in first class condition within two weeks. His wind is Improving rapid lv and the flabblneas of his legs and upper arms la gradually hardening into solid flesh and muscle. The champion is withstanding the scorch ing rays of the afternoon sun which brats down on his Maumee Bay camp better than any members of his train ing: retinue. He finished work yester day as fresh as when he started while his sparring partners Were panting for breath as a result of the pace Willard set for them. Uempsey is eager to resume his boxing but must wait another day as the sklnN terming over 'his damaged eye is still too tender to permit any rough work. Manager Jack Kearns announced the challenger would not be allowed to pull on the eloyes until Sunday. He fears that if the wound should be re-opened It might prove dangerous to his vision. A young giant, named Kerthel. re cently discharged from the naval service, is due to join Willard's staff of sparring partners today. Ketchel. described as a 192-pounder, with a style similar to Dempsey's was rec ommended to Willard by an eastern friend as a "find." Willard has refused to have negro sparring partners in camp, altho there are several availabla and probably capable of aiding him in his condi tioning activities. "When I drew a color line after my context with Johnson, IVintended to observe it as long as I remained champion." Wil'.ard said. "I am con vinced that bouts between white men and negroes have c1one more harm to boxing than cny single factor." WON'T BE REFEREE TJornp Snr. Ni-w.-paner Work 'Will liprp Him Out. Phtladerphi:- Julie' 1 WnitaWPH. Hocnp has eliminated fiimself from consideration as referee for the Wll-lard-Dempscy fight. In a letter to MaJ. A. J.

What Is said to be one of the largest) pharmaceutical laboratories in mt I'nited States has been completed at D.iyton. Ohio, for the manufacture of T.-inlac. !he well-known 'medicine, which according to recent reports is now having th? largest sale of any medicine of its kind in the world. The erection of the new plant was made necessary by the rapid growth of the business, as the older plant was found to be wholly inadequate to sup ply the ever-increasing demand which a the nresent rate of sale will amount to more than five million bottles for he present year alone. By the erect on of this plant the manufacturers of Tanlac are giving to the world Just one more evidence of the remarkable growth and expansion of the.r business, und of their abso lute confidence in its future. This announcement wi'l be read with Interest not only by the many thousands of Tanlac agents scattered thruout every state of the Union and thruout Canada, but to the millions who have used it beneficially as well. The new building occupies 00,000 snuare feet of floor snace. It la six stories in height, practically fire-proof thruout, and is of striking arcnttec tural design. It also has private rail way facilities. This beautiful new structure now stands in striking contrast beside the 1 older building where Tanlac was first made. Visitors to the laboratories are strongly impressed with the extremely modern character of the equipment. Everything is provided and splendidly arranged to promote systematic and rapid production. The very latest machinery and devices known to in vention and pharmaceutical science are here used. The interior thruout is finished, in spotless white, and all of the large force of employes wear wh.te uni forms, which they are required to change daily. The main offices on the f rst floor are all finished in Ca rarn marble and mahogany. The entire process of manufacture Is conducted under absolutely sanitary conditions. Even the bottles made ex pressly to contain Tanlac are washed and sterilized electrically by the ultra violet ray process. They are then filled by ffutcunatlc machinery and the fin ished product is therefore never touched by human hands. When Tanlac was introduced into Ca'nada, history repeated itself, and the demand which had been created in the United States was quickly dup licated in the Dominion Provinces. As a result, it was recently found neces sary to establish another Tanlac Lab oratory at Windsor, Canada, which is on a somewhat smaller scale than the plant at Dayton, but is no less modern ly equipped. These new facilities give a daily ca pac.ty of 36.000 boules.but as Tanlac Is rapidly being introduced into for eign countries, it is probably only a question of a few years before even larger facilities will become necessary. While the manufacturers are nec essarily working for capacity produc tion, it is a fundamental rule of the Tanlac Laboratories that the quality of the medicine shall never be sacri ficed to secure quantity output. Uniform quality is guaranteed by a series of careful inspections by expert chemists, from the time the roots, herbs, and barks are received in their rough state from all parts of the globe until their medicinal properties have been extracted by the most approved processes. The finished medicine is then bottled, labelled, and shipped out to the tens of thousands of druggists thruout the United States and Canada, to supply a demand never before equalled for this or any other medi-c.ne. The executive sales offices are lo cated In Atlanta, Georgia, and occupy almost an entire floor of the Fourth National Bank Building of that city.

It ha freshened the Cubs for their supreme effort against the Giants from Manhattan. They are going into one of the first "cru cials" of the year looking like a ball club. Shifting sands are recommended by Mother Nature as a polish. Shifting ball players may polish a club. AWARD P.-S. C. TO KANSAS. Pvt. Pearl Chartlcr, of Clyde, Receives High War Honor. Washington.

I 3 l' lj i 1 I Refrigerators The Best of Them Are To Be Found Here! To properly preserve the food and prevent waste of ice, a refrigerator must be so constructed as to provide a steady circulation of dry cold air. Who wants to risk spoilage of foodstuffs with poorly made refrigerators Seeger and Inner Chill Refrigerators have stood every test of proper refrigeration. The Seeger, by actual test, consumes less ice than any other make. Not only is the consumption of ice less, but a more even temperature of dry cold air is maintained throughout the entire food chamber by means of the famous Syphon construction. Foodstuffs "keep" longer in the Seeger. You will be surprised how much a refrigerator of this character will save you in year's time. May garnishee salaries of all city officers.
