Nesblt. iJ THOUGHT FOR TODAY. The first years of man must make provision for the last—Samule John son. Dipping in a solution of alum will fire-proof paper candle or lamp shades. Louisville calculates that war prices of drugs took an extra $100,000 from the people In the last twelve months. Salt Lake City spent $1,381,432 on the municipal machine during the last ten months and has a 'balance of $407 000 to pull through the remainder of the year. Liberty Bell starts on Its homeward Journey from San Francisco, next Thursday. San Franciscans plan a two days' exposition performance as a farewell to the relte.

All Chicago and the fringe of Cook connty outside are valned for tax pur poses at $3,131,000,000, an assessment gain of $166,000,000 In a year.

Of ordinary farm Implements, the snlky plow has the shortest life in years but ranks second only to the walking plow in total days of service rendered.

And next week, next year, thirty years hence, thousands of wives will be paying in poverty and tears for today's "remarkable activity" in Wall street, says the Ottumwa Re view. Don't be foolod by stocks that are for the time inflated. The bellows never stay full of wind for long. Your savings bank right here at home is a pretty good place to put your spare coin. Advice of this character has been given by our trained specialists year after year as summer began to wane and the coming of Fall heralded the time when storms and cold are near. We repeat this warning here. Sufferers from Catarrh will un doubtedly find the symptoms much aggravated as Winter approaches. With the first chill blasts the Rheu matism lets itself be felt. There are forms of winter Eczema—one in par licular called Tetter that causes •eal suffering when cold weather comes. The mere aches and minor pains of Rheumatism not only change in winter, but the changes are apt to be so decided in their violence as to cause the most intense suffering. Hor rible aching pains in the limbs, in the back, in the joints, even rheumatic pains in the head and face sometimes supposed to be neuralgia. Catarrh is back again, more intense than last /winter with the continual hawking and epitting, headaches, dripping of phlegm in the nose and throat, the ctopped air passages and the foetid from the breath. Ia It not. a The Danish premier has declared that on June 6,1916, the new law that permits women to vote will be put into effect. On June 6, 1915, the an niversary of the signing of the con stitution in 1849 by Frederick VII, the Danish parliament signed the bill conferring suffrage on women. Miss Mary E. Woolloy, president of Mount Holyoke college, presided at one of the meetings of the national council of the Congregational church held last week In New Haven, Conn. The subject of the paper was "Con gregational Women in Social Service," and women from all parts of the country and from Japan were present. Press dispatches from San Fran cisco quoted Secretary of the Treas ury McAdoo as saying that "the Amer ican business man can thank God that the federal reserve banks are estab lished at this time. They have pre vented what undoubtedly would have been a panic." In order to refresh Mr. McAdoo's memory, let it be recall ed that the danger of a panic occur red in August, 1914, at the outbreak of the European war. It was not un til November 16, 1914, that the re serve banks opened for business. Mr. McAdoo has unwittingly paid tribute to the amended Aldrich-Vreeland emergency currency plan, under which relief was secured by American banks. The Aldrich-Vreeland bill Is a repub lican measure. 80ME IMMIGRATION FACTS. Commenting on our Immigration problems, Commissioner Frederick C. Howe gives some interesting figures showing that the tide of emigration has slowly ebbed southward in Eu rope. The only north Europe Immi gration of any consetjuenco, he shows by government figures. Is from Nor way and Sweden and Great Britain. The flow of English, Irish, Scotch and Welsh to our country, while never ex traordinary heavy, has always been steady and continues to be so. But the most remarkable fact of all Is that for twenty years the emigra tion of Germans to the United States has amounted to nothing. That Is, while some few thousands come over each year, as a matter of fact more people emigrate from the United States to Germany every year. ELECTRICAL PROSPERITY WEEK. The electrical industry is not con tent to sit quietly and wait for pros perity to take its own good time about coming back. This Is not at all the nature of things electrical! It is go ing right out after prosperity during the week of November 29 and Decem ber 4, and bring it back, or know the reason why. And when this three billion dollar Industry -starts out after anything It usually gets it. Electrical prosperity week Is t0 be country-wide, six-day celebration. Its purpose will be to show to the public how electricity, the all-pervad ing force of the universe, the most wlllipg and most reliable servant in the world. Is permanently linked with preseht day progress. The great cele bration will herald far and near elec trical wonders of which millions do not know, possibilities of which they have never dreamed, facts which will surprise the most optimistic. The time Is set for November 29 to December 4 the place, the United States of America. Timed for thq beginning of the Christmas shopping period, it will afford an effective stim ulation to the "shop early" Idea. The movement originated with the society for electrical development, Incorporat ed, with headquarters In New York. It is backed by the united electrical Interests of the country. It Is planned to rend the clouds of depression, to hasten an area of brightness, truth and understanding, to foster a spirit of optimism. All are not fully aware of the vast possibilities of electricity in solving domestic and business problem*. Homes where drudgery exists can be made cleaner, brighter and healthior by this willing servant. Expensive, inefficient and wasteful methods now employed in thousands of industrial and commercial establishments can be bettered by electric power. It is the purpose of electrical pros perltv week to brin? these facts home to people by displays, exhibitions, lec tures, shows and advertising. People will be shown most conclusively that electricity is a necessity, not a lux ury Is economical, not expensive: Is pimple, not Complex la general in scope, not limited is safe, not danger ous is useful every day in the week The society for electrical develop ment, supported by legions of boost ers, comprising a unanimous and un- CLEANSE THE BLOOD BEFORE WINTER Free yourself from the menace of bad health when the cold and wet sets in.
