n THE DOWN AND OUT.
At the meeting of the city commissioners last evening a woman.
1 the mother of two little children- -was seeking a pardon. She had
i been in jail ten days, after having t.nken .misstep along the path of
H shame. The matron of the jail spoke for her; n kind woman, who
j had cared for her little ones, was present to speak a good word; the
juvenile judge favored justice tempered with mercy; and a stranger
H with a soft spot for the helpless was there to offer financial help.
l This is not such a bad world after all. when a lonely, fallen wo-
man, thrown among; chance acquaintances. -finds so many to plead for
i
Hi . Mary Magdalene the woman who had sinned and who redeemed
HI ! herself, was among the accepted of Christ. She was bust, at the cross
H and first at the gruvf. At the foundation of Christianity was forgivc-
H uoss with the same degree of consideration for one who had fallen
HI 1 , as was Shown when the mother in 'the City Hall was released from
B custody.

I WHY -WE CONTRIBUTE?
Explaining how important the United States "is. in the economic
life of the world, a student of statistics has made the following com
parisons :
13ack in 1913 we' mined 3S per cent of the world's coal. Our
output was 569,000,000 tons, as compared with 321,0.00-000 tons
mined by Great Britain and 305,000,000 tons taken out of- the ground
in Germany. In 191S. however, our share of coal mined amounted to
AG per cent of the world output and the figures were: United States
073,000,000 tons; Great Britain, 255,000,000 tons; Germany 273,000,
000 tons.
In 3913 we turned out 31,300000 tons of steel, while Germany,
Great Britain and France combined produced 31,100,000 tons. In
191S our production had risen to 45.000,000 tons and that of the three
European nations had fallen to just over 26,000.000 tons.
We spent something over $32,000,000,000 in the war. Of this
sum we raised by- taxation well over $9,000,000,000. AVe loaned to
our allies nearly' $10,000:000,000. leaving us a net war debt of just
under $14,000,000,000. By contrast England spent nearly $50,000,
000,000. Of this she raised by taxatiou over $14,000,000,000, loaned
to her allies near $9,000,000,000, and finds a net burden on her oeo
plc of over $26,000,000-000.
In 1914 Great Britain had nine ships to our one and Germany
had five to our two. In 1919 the actual tounage of Great Britain was
16.345,000 and our tonnage had "risen from 2,027.000 in 1914 to 9,
773.000. In 1914 only S per cent of the. commerce of the United
States was carried in American ships. In 1919 the proportion was
3J per cent.
"With these figures presented- wc- ccae lo wonder that the world j
continues to draw heavily on the American people in order to exist. !
While Ave produce a percentage so large of the essentials of life, we
must continue to serve common humanity by freely contributing our
storehouses of plenty.
The Bill is Never Long
Over-Due
Wc all need pleasure and recreation, but rrvmy of us pay
H too dearly for it. Continued over-eating, over-drinking, late
H hours and loss of sleep gradually roll up an account that
brings sickness and enforced rest. Weak kidneys is the com'
H mon penalty.
H Daily backache, dizzy spells, headaches, rheumatic pains
H and urinary irregularities are warnings of kidney weakness.
Hj Neglect may lead to gravel, dropsy or Bright's disease. For
B quick relief, moderate the habits that have brought on the
H trouble and use Doan's Kidneg Pills. Doan's arc used and
fl recommended the world over.

NEW PARTY IN OGDEN.
New forces arc coining into the political i'icld, with the organiz
ing in Ogden of a party which aims lo bring together all the work
ers' whether they be union or non-union, city or country workers.
Once a week the members of the new party arc to met in City
Hall for the purpose of organizing and spreading its propaganda.
The movement is said to be in response to a demand for a party
which will do more for the workers than either one of the old par
ties. Last year the labor party, representing the union, entered the
contest iu Ogden, but failed to poll the full strength of the unions.
Now labor leaders are turning in another direction and, instead of
an exclusively union ticket, arc "appealing to all classes,, including
the farmers.
Will they succeed ?
The reply depends on the answer to the question:
Will their platform be broad and their candidates worthy?
No new party can succeed unless it has a great object lo be at
tained, and, is made up of men and women of high purpose who are
so inspired with the program they support as to be willing1 lo make
many sacrifices for their cause. "N
FAULTS OF WOMEN.
. I
Proverbs of women arc known to all people' but, the Japanese j
have a number which arc unusual in that they disclose an under-;
valuation of womankind. I
One of the Japanese proverbs is as follows: '
' If you want lo love women begin by spending women."
In other words, women are most flattered by the attention of the
dollar. American women would resent that imputation. .
Another proverb says:
"Women and mountains should be looked on at a distance."
With eye brows thinned to a razor blade, hair bleached, cheeks
painted and nose powdered, perhaps it. is well not to get too close.
Women fall in love with their protectors, men with women,"
says the Japanese sage. This is noticeable during periods of war,
when women adore the soldier.
But here is a judging of woman's nature., "which is bad phi
losophy: "Men who can neither brag nor flatter need not fear being loved
by women."
From the foregoing we must conclude that women are gullible.
By the way, the man who brags and flatters often gains the confi
dence of men. So women are not the only victims of boast and brag,
and of vanity.

Encouraging Strike News
Leads o Gains in Later
Trading
NEW YORK, April 13. Gain or 1
point for Royal Dutcti and a reaction
of 2 points for Texas company reflect
'ed the uneven coures of prices at the
dulj opening of today's stock market.
Trading continued to be intlucnced by
the growth of the railroad strike and
j esterday's higher rate for call money.
Sugars and affiliated specialties were
again firm to strong, hut the general
list, notably steels, motors and ship
pings, indicated renewed selling press
ure. Moderate improvement was
shown before the end of the first hair
hour, equipments strengthening with
further advances among sugar issues.
In addition to sugars, which soon
scored over-night gains' of 2 to 20
points, various issues which rumor as
serted were considering stock divi
dends, were taken up' by pools. High
grade oils rose 2 to 3 points, shippings
2 to 7 and minor or independent steels
and equipments 2 to 6. Motors and
advance, but dealings in that group
were relatively light and rails were
altogether neglected. Foreign ex
change was steadier and call money
opened at 7 per cent, but Liberty
bonds and Victory notes established
new low records.
The market derived much of Us
further improvement at midday from
encouraging reports regarding the
railroad strike. Many specialties em
bracing steels, equipments, tobacco,
toxtiel and chemical groups showed
gains of 2 to 4 points and sugars con
tinued to rise.
Samuel Gompers and
Lee Addresses Lodges
CLEVELAND. O.. April 12. Sam
uel Gompers, president of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, and W. G.
Loe, president of the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen, left a meeting of
five local lodges of trainmen at 3:30
p. m. after both had addressed the
meeting on the railroad strike.
Neither Mr. Gompers nor Mr. Lee
would make a statement.
1 The meeting continued after the two
! labor leaders departed.
Before going into tho meeting, how
ever, Gompers told President Lee he
would back the brotherhoods to the
last in their fight to keep their tanks
solid. . j
"I am going to do all in my power
to bring about a settlement of the sit
uation." he said. "While there is no
denying the justice of the men's de
mands for monoy to live on, nothiDg
can be gained by their secession froui
their old organizations. An unauthor
ized strike cannot be a success."
After the meeting adjourned at 5 p.
m. members said no vote on return
ing to work was taken and the senti
ment was that the men would remain
out. It was learned that the men at
tending the meeting were largely com
posed of members of tho Brotherhood
of Railroad Trainmen who had struck
but refused to join the Cleveland Yard
men's association.
