PALMER TO MAKE J APPEAL TO WOMEN i t Comptrollers of House Hold Finances j Can Play Part?Changes in \ Styles Discouraged. s c Washington. Oct. 17.?Attorney | General Palmer and his official asso- t ciates in the fight on the high cost of living, determined to enlist the aid of the women of America. By appealing to the comptrollers of household finances throughout the t country, it is hoped to inaugurate an I epoch of real economy which will off- < set the "buy now" propaganda of r trades people. Further more an at- r tempt will be made to discourage 1 the frequent cnanges in siyies nictated by the makers of woman's apparel and thereby effect a saving in ] clothes. Another important decision taken < at the meeting was to release more surplus supplies held by the government, if it can be done without em- 1 barressment to the departments involved. Secretaries Baker and Daniels and chairman John Barton Payne ] of the shipping board were invited to the conference for the first ] time for that purpose. Mr. Baker be- , ing unable to attend, the attorney general and Mr. Daniels will confer < with him next week. Mr. Daniels reported that he had sugar enough to 1 run the navy six months, but before , lie released any of it wanted to be assured of ample replacements. < Indicative of the broad scope which ] Mr. Palmer's efforts are taking was the request of chairman Payne to re- 1 lease any surplus building materials ] which he has on hand, especially ] lumber needed for home building. The shipping board, it was learned, probably will need, however, all of the supplies which it has purchased. Cooperation of the housewifes has ( been the subject of extended confer- ] ences between H. E. Figg of the department of justice and Mrs. Edward F. Costigan, who offered the government the full resources of the Con - ? _ ? sinners' league and tne league ui ] Women \'oters in the campaign to , take the inflation out of prices. Asa l result, speakers will be put soon in i even* state to carry the message that one way to beat the profiteers is to ignore propaganda saying that prices are certain to go higher and wait for the decline which officials say is inevitable. These speakers will be armed with facts and figures gathered by the council of national defense in its war work and showing production costs in virtually every industry in the country. In undertaking to stimulate a patriotic refusal to be stampeded into buying new clothes simply because the designers change the style from six to eight times a year, the speakers, it was said, will point out that from 8 to 35 per cent, is charged for the style itself and that a proportionate amount will be saved by reducing the style changes to a reasonable number. Mr. Palmer and Director Clarkson thp council of national defense will confer soon on how best to reach women by printed appeal similar to those used by the food administration. The council's affiliated state organizations will assist. The first complete official report of what has been accomplished so far by the use of such laws as were availble was given the conference by Mr. Palmer showing that there have been 86 cases of actual seizures under the food control act, with 22 cases still under investigation. Three cases have been held for the grand jury and in two other cases jail sentences and fines have been imposed. The seizures have taken place in 18 different states, and resulted in placing on the market through normal channels of trade 99,047 pounds of cheese, 157,The Best Ira Against Prominent Educator Be tha Is a Sure Dr. R. M. Brame, discoverer of Brame's Yapomentha Salve, has a letter from C. C. Wright, Superintendent of the Wilkes County, X. C., Public Schools, in which he says: "We have used Brame's Vapomentha Salve for nearly all the ills for which it is prescribed and have always secured satisfactory results. If used in time it has never failed to break up; colds, usually the forerunner of Grippe, Influenza and Pneumonia. 1 speak from personal observa- j tion. I believe if this preparation is used in time it will prevent thedevelopment of pneumonia in every instance. if used according to directions." These strong statements are fully' justified by the remarkable recoveries that follow. Brame's Vapomentha Salve is applied freely over; the chest and throat and inserted in 53 pounds of poultry, more than 100.000 pounds of fish, 52.056 cans of omatoes, 765.615 pounds of salt jork. 21,053,088 eggs, 1.427,062 >ounds of butter, 4,831,331 pounds of sugar, 2,830 sacks of potatoes and juantities of beans, corn, baking jowder, salmon, coffee, salt and oth?r edibles.

The saddest to us of all the year, It was a bitter pain, a shock sincere To part with the one we loved so dear. Lonely are we without you. How we miss you no one knows, Jur thoughts are always with you, From early mora 'till evening close. We sit and think of you, Lucile; We think of you when we are all alone. For memory is the only thing that grief can call its own. But God alone can comfort us here And our only consolation is, to try and meet you, there. Dh, how sweet it is to know that we will meet again. Where parting is no more, And that the one we loved so dearly has only gone before, Sad and dreary is our life. Lonely is our home today grieving o'er our loved one. Who passed away one year today. 1 loved you, yes I loved you.

In Memoriam STEWART?In sad and loving remembrance of my dear sister, Mrs. J. M. Stewart, who departed this life October 20, 1919. Oh, how I missed you dear sister; Sad is my heart today, For the one I loved so dearly, reposes in the cold, cold clay, Long, dreary hours she bore in pain. To seek for cure was all in vain. But God who knoweth all things best Eased her pain and gave her rest, A precious one from home has gone. A voice I loved is stilled. A place is vacant in my home. Which never can be nlled. In the cemetery sweetly sleeping. Where the flowers gently wave. Lies the one I loved so dearly, In her lonely silent grave. Xow your gentle voice is hushed; Your warm true heart is still, And on your fair and peaceful face. Is resting deaths cold chill, You are not forgotten, dear sister, Xor will you ever be As long as life and memory last, I will always think of the. A Sister. E. C. J.

The Great Unrest As a cure for the great unrest with which the world seems to be afflicted it seems to us that we need to get back to first principles again?to learn again the great lesson of the troldenrule and to practice it. The world is sorely afflicted with the sin! of selfishness. Each and every nation | s and most organizations and individ- j uals are looking at life more from a standpoint of what they can wring from fortune for themselves rather than what service they can best render to make the world a better place j of abode. A little old fashioned honesty and fair dealing and a little less of the spirit of selfishness and more of neighborliness would go a long way towards solving some of the problems of the world, which now seem acute. The farther we get away from the spirit of mutual helpfulness and the practice of the great precepts of love laid down by the Man of Galilee, the easier we make it for the strong to impose on the weak, for the rich to further impoverish the poor.
