First Class Service
An Enraptured
Sextette
By GEORGE ELMER COBB
(Owifekt, 111, tr WMtws MiptP Datos.)
"What's this Are!" exclaimed Law
jrer Ira Tarbell, arising hastily from
his desk and starting for the open
doorway of his office. His two cli
ents, Mark and Paul Elson, brothers,
hastily came to their feet and joined
him in the hall without It was filled
with smoke and there was an uproar
of alarmed voices In other rooms nnd
corrlddrs, but It was soon discovered
that the smoke came through an open
window from the rear yard, where a
lot of rubbish was being burned up.
Now when Mark nnd Paul had
arisen from their hents each had left
open on the table his wallet. They
hud been consulting their contents
while talking with the lawyer. Re
turning, each closed a wallet nnd re
stored It to a pocket. The attorney
resumed his wonted dignity and calm.'
"Well, gentlemen," he said, referring
to a penciled sheet before him, "I
think I understand the situation. 1
am to make over to your sister, Miss
Naomi, the old family homestead and
ten thousand Uollars In bonds, to be
held In her own right as a femme
sole."
"That's right," nodded Mark Elston,
ruddy-cheeked, bright-eyed as a school
boy. "And Naomi shall do Just what she
wants to with the property and
money," said Mark heartily.
The brothers were under thirty,
their sister Naomi an agreeable spin
ster of thirty-five. When their parents
died she had taken charge of their
home and had well filled the bill as
housekeeper and cook. So comfort
ably she looked after her brothers, so
smoothly did things run on that the
pleasant routine was continued perma
nently and unconsciously all hands
settled Into n rut Naomi was only
happy when she wbr doing something
to add to the welfare and comfort of
her brothers, nnd they accepted her
kind service as a matter of course,
although truly appreciative and grate
ful. Recently Paul had observed to
Mark that he fancied Naomi looked
tired and dull nt times. They talked
It over. Maybe she needed a rest, a
change. Suppose they parceled out
to her what she was entitled to of the
estate made her Independent, In
fact? Certainly that would make her
feel better. Hence the visit to the
Inwyer's office, and the brothers went
home feeling they had well consum
mated nn net of willing duty.
Naomi broke down and cried like a
child when they told her what they
had done. The way the Imaginative
Murk pictured the transition awaiting
her I Sh,e was to be promoted from n
serfdom to the lot of a princess I
Naomi was so overcome at their gen
erosity and thoughtfulness, as she
chose to magnify It, that she fled to
"ier room to have her cry out. Mark
followed her to the hall to console her
nnd Paul, chancing to take out his wal
I'.l, made a startling discovery.
"Why, we've changed wallets at the
lawyer's office 1" he exclaimed. "This
belongs to Mark. Hello 1 hello 1 hello I"
Paul stared and then grinned. In
an apartment of his brother's wallet
he found a time-worn photograph. In
an Instant he recognized It
"Did you ever!" he chuckled. "Ber
tha Drake!" and Just then Mark re
entered the room holding the other
wallet In his hand, nnd Paul flushed
like a conscious schoolboy as be no
ticed revealed within It his own pho
tograph of Wanda Drake I"
"H'mr observed Mark with a flush,
"both In the same boat, eh? Well, It's
nothing to be ashamed of. They were
nice girls. Bertha and Wanda. There
was the brother Wilbur, too. Always
thought he had a sneaking fondness
for Naomi. What grand days those
were, back In Lneon, when the Drakes
were our next-door neighbors I Why,
It must be two years since we nil met
and drifted apart."
"I don't want money to waste," said
their sister Inter In the evening. "I
would like to fix up things a little
nround the house, though, and have a
break In the loneliness by entertaining
some of our old friends once In a
while."
"Yes, there's the Drakes," reminded
Mark, evading his brother's eyes.
"Bertha and Wanda," nodded Paul
In well-assumed generality. "And W1I-'
bur," nnd Naomi flushed, hurriedly re
ferred to other old acquaintances nnd
a start was thus made along the road
of yesterday.
How did It all come about? AVhen
the old neighborly companionship was
resumed Mark took great credit to
himself for suggesting the visit to the
Inwyer's office, which had brought
about such a happy suggestion. Paul
drifted back to his old liking for Wan
da Drake with an ardor that spurred
Paul .out of all laggardness. As to
Naomi, she was n blushing, sensitive
young girl once more as the visits of
Wilbur Drake became as, constant and
Interesting as of yore.
The cozy sitting room of the Elson
home became a real confessional one
auspicious evening. With marked con
straint and then a genuine bubbling of
emotion the two brothers and their
sister with some circumlocution an
nounced the result of the reunion of
the two families. And at the triple
wedding Jolly, big-hearted Paul Elson
took great pride In assuming for Him
self the credit for having solved the
problem of all-around happiness for
me contenteu sextette.
FACTS ABOUT W. S. S.
IN VARIOUS LANDS
War Savings Certificates weie
adopted and first issued in England
during the spring of 1916. In the
United States, War Savings Stamps
were first issued in December, 1917.
In Great Britain, nearly three hun
dred million certificates have been sold
since 1910, to January, 1919, bringing
in approximately $1,100,000,000.
Approximately $1,015,000,000 worth
of War Savings Stamps were sold in
the United States from December,
1917, to December 31, 1918.
War Savings Stamps in forms simi
lar to those of the United States and
Great Britain exist in Australia, New
Zealand, Canada, India and Japan.
The British W. S. S. is dated when
purchased and is due five years from
that date. Certificates always sell for
the same price, 15 shillings, six pence
($3.83).
The W. S. S. of the United States
are issued in annual series, and each
series has a uniform date and ma
turity. The interest rate is kept uni
form by increasing the pui chase price
one cent each month, beginning at
$4.12 in January.
The United States government is.
back of every W. S. S. sold in this
country. They grow in value con
stantly and can be redeemed for more
than was paid for them any time after
they have been held a month on ten
days, written notice to the postmaster.
o
WASTE AT WASHINGTON
"I l egret to say that I have no set
speech to make to you. I have de
cline! even to select a subject.
I, doubted very much whether I ought
to come to this meeting."
These aie the introductory sen
tences of a rambling addiess of about
ten thousand words, delivered by D. F.
Houston, secretary of Agricultuic, at
the Trans-Mississippi Readjustment
Congress in Omaha recently.
The preliminary words did not seem
to promise much, but Mr. Houston's
effort appears to have turned out sat
isfactorily to himself, for he had the
speech printed at government ex
pense, as Circular 130 of the United
State Department of Agricultuic, of
fice of the secretary, meaning, per
haps, that it was the 130th speech
which he has delivered and ciiculated
at the expense of the government.
Various governmental organizations
are loading down the mails with stuff
that in the main has no practical
value, and keeping the government
printing establishment busy produc
ing tons on tons of matter that goes
into the waste basket. This speech of
the secretary of agriculture is speci
fied merely because it is a conspicu
ous and flagrant evidence that the top
men arc to blame for the abuse.
Is there never to be any economiz
ing in Washington, in non-essentials,
to diminish the immense necessary
burden of taxes that the public and
the industries of the country must
bear, as a result of the war?

HEAD OF GERIkLMN v " "''
CLUB HAS RESIGNED
READING, Pa., June 3. William J
Bums, the first American citizen not
of German birth or origin elected
president of the Harmonie-Maenner-
cher Society, this citjrs oldest and also
weathiest German social club, with
1,000 members, announced that he has
resigned the presidency and that he
will also give up his membership. Mr.
Burns said he found' a Gennan flag
flying from the staff when the Read
ing soldiers of the Rainbow Division
came home, and that he tore it down,
putting up the only American flag in
the house.
"I was misinformed as to the real
character of the club, and the courts
ought to close the place, because of
what has happened in the past," he is
quoted as having said.
o
DARING AIRMAN
DOES PLANE STUNT
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J June 3.
Lieut. Omar Locklear, formerly, with
the air service of the U. S. army, gave
a demonstration, said to be the first in
the annals of flying, of catching a
dangling rope ladder from a second
airplane and climbing into the craft
from which it hung. The feat was
done at an altitude of 2,500 feet. He
has leaped from ono plane to another
in the air before, but never made an
ascent from one plane to another.
The performance was one of the big
features of the day's flying events
held here in connection with the Pan
American Aeronautic convention.
BUSINESS ON INCREASE
LAST MONTH, IS REPORT
WASHINGTON', June 3. A notice
able upward trend in business during
May, especially in those lines related
to the leading retail trades which have
felt the, release of buying power held
hack by the war, has been reported by
the federal reserve board. Practically
uniform reports from federal reserve
agents were said to point to a summer
and autumn of unusual activity. A
warning was added, however, against
accepting the prospective prosperity
at its full face value until conditions
become more clarified.
GERMANY LOST 198
U-BOATS IN THE WAR
Germany lost 198 submarines during
the war, according to statistics on this
branch of the German naval service
published in the Berlin Vossischc Zeit
ung. This number included seven sub
marines interned in foreign ports and
fourteen destroyed by their own crews.
More than 3.000 sailors lost their
lives in the submarine sinkings, the
statistics show, while several thousand
others lost their reason and had to be
committed to lunatic asylums.

DISABLED SOLDERS
MAY NOW ENTER
CIVIL SERVICE
An executive order recently issued
by the president, received by cable,
amends the federal civil service rules
so as to permit the U. S. Civil Serv
ice Commission to waive the physical
requirement under certain condition;
in favor of men who were injuied in
the military or naval service.
The civil service regulations speci
fy certain physical defects which de
bar from all examinations and other
defects which will debar from certain
examinations. These regulations are
J'SrLYlliffiWff " ?
r " .""" " ""s "
ut'punmeni ncaus.
In submitting its recommendation
to the president the Civil Service Com
mission said:
"Where it is apparent to this com
mission that his (the disabled sol
dier's, sailors, or marine's) physical
condition is such that he would not
ordinarily bo accepted, the case will
be referred to -the Federal Board for
Vocational Education. That board will
then decide whether it is practicable
to educate him for the position sought.
If considered practicable, the rehabili
tation and education will be given and
when completed certification of that
fact will be made to this commission.
Where the board does not consider it
desirable to attempt the education for
the position sought other positions
will be considered and suggested to
him, but he will not be admitted to
the one for which his physical condi
tion constitutes an irremediable bar.'
CHANGED HIS MIND ENTIRELY
Will Rogers, the amusingly loqua
cious lariat thrower, who is about to
leave the "Follies," and move to the
movies, is the hero of an anecdote told
by a Philadelphian who took Roger''
latner tor the first time to see nis son
perform.
Alter the show the old man asKcd
his son:
"Will, how much do you get foi
those tricks?"
"Tlnee hundred dollars a week."
"What? Three hundred dollars a
week just for throwing a rope around
and making a few fool remarks?"
"Yes, sir." v
"They must lose money on you.
How much do they charge for seats?"
"Two dollars for the seats down in
front; dollar and a half to fifty cent
for the rest." ,
"How many arc there of each class
of seats?"
The "star" told him.
Then the father pulled out an old
envelope and employed the next few
minutes in doing sums on it.
At last he looked up over his glasses
and asked, anxiously: "Will, do you
think they pay you enough?"
R(jBE TURNED LAUGH ON ' WIT
The brilliant wit of the bar looked
at the moonfaced farm laborer, wink
ed at his friends and whispered, "Now
we'll have some fun."
"Hove you been married?" he be
gan, slowly.
"Y-e-es," stammered the farmer,
"once."
"Whom did you marry?"
"A w-w-woman, sir."
"Come, my good man, of course it
was a woman. Did you ever hear of
anyone marrying a man?"
"Y-c-es, sir; my sister" did."
HAD REACHED THAT STAGE
The youngest daughter of the house
said she was 17, but looked 40. She
had volunteered to sing.
Her mother sat listening with a
"How does she do it?" beam illumi
nating her countenance. Then she
turned to a lover of music and asked:
"Do you think her voice ought to bt
cultivated?"
The lover of music tried to look af
though he did not know what he wa.
saying, and replied:
"No, I think it ought to be har
vested."
