(Confidential Correspondence from the Devil to tne Kaiser, j Dear Wilhelin: Here's something we've got to watch close. Women all over the United States' are going around dressed in white working ev ery minute rolling bandages and col lecting funds. Women who have always gone oft to summer resorts this time of year are staying In the cities and swarming into hot crowded rooms to cut and sew and pack. They flock down to railway stations to cheer the soldiers on the trains and give them food and drink no matter what time of night. A whole lot of these women have escaped our submarines and appear ed In every country you and 1 have tried' to bring under our kultur and frlghtfiilness. They go to the very battlefields after the wounded and take care of women and children from the regions we have devastated, I cant believe there is any real dan ger of their undoing all the miseries we can Inflict if we wish a flnrman peace on the world, but Wllhelm, they are making an amazing effort at it. And that's why the Amorican peo ple are pouring out their dollars to back them. They know whore the money goes and: have quit belioving what we started about waste and graft. In the United States it's got so any one would as soon admit that he had committed a crime us to ad mit that he had not given these workers what he could to undo what we have done. You remember Cali gula of Rome wished mankind had only one neck so he could chop It off at a single whack. 1 wish wo could get all this tribe of women on a hospital Bhip big enough to haul them at one load, so that we could send them where we sent tho wo men and children on the LuBllunin. See If you can think up pnuie thlng. And get busy as quick as you can, Wllhelm. Yours for unmitigated kultur, THE DIOVIL. PREFER TO WORK FOR MEN. There Is a flno article about wo men In buBlnoBH In the July Ameri can Magazine. The author of the ar ticle says: "It Is the curious fact, which I do not pretend to expluin: Women do not like to work for women; 1 hoy would far rather be directed1 by a man. Tn one section of our assembling-room one of the girls became so expert at the work thnt we put nor in charge of that particular department. She was efficient and hard working, but from the day she took cliargo we have had trouble In keeping glrlB at work in that department. And once four of them came to the superinten dent with the outright request that he give them a Tnan to work for. 'Wo dont 'want to work for a woman,' they said, "Do other employers hnvo this same experience? Do women dislike to work for other women? 1 should have supposed that the girls In the assembling room would have been pleased by the promotion of one or their number. Sex loyalty I should have thought would prompt them to turn In and1 do their best to make her department a success. Instead of which they did thoir best to got her fired. What Ib behind this phenome non? Why is It that women would rather work for men than for a mem ber of their own sex?" Thero Is no room for the slacker only at tho battlo front according to Provost Marshal O (moral Crowdor and tho genera) knows whereof he Bpeaks. All the "slack" is talton up when the follows get In the front ranks. Those Italians nro some scrappers when once In tho harnoss accord ing to recent developments. Those Yanks are sure giving Iho Huns a samplo of Amorican patriot ism. c A WOMAN'S SHOP FOR WOMAN'S WEAR We CatertoYourWants and specialize to meet the de mands of our army of customers THE BELLOWS STORE ?HE LADIES' EXCLUSIVE CONSERVATION STORE OF ITHOUI Because the Jackson county mem bers of .Battery iE, 65th artillery, have four months pay coming and are broke, Mayor Gates several days ago wired United Stales Senator Chamberlnin ut Waahington asking how money could be sent to the boys m France, says the Med ford Mail. The answer Just received is not com forting. The senator wires that the way to send money is through a money order addressed to some point. i In England where it would be for warded to France. II this procedure is followed it would be months before money would reach the recipient, und in the mean time the boys would probably have been paid oh. Hence tho Aledford and Jackson county boys in the bat tery wilt probably be without any spending money for some time to come. Mayor GatcB' especial anxiety over this broken condieion of tho boys, according to recent letters received by their relatives, is the fact that hiu son, Sorgeant George Gateti, U sick In a mllltury hospital in I'aris with only 50 cents in his pockets. The mayor is anxious to hurl a big wad of money George's way. Tho GutoB family is greatly wor ried about George. The first known of his Illness was last Saturday when a' letter arrived from him, dated May 27, saying he was still in the hospital hud been for throe weeks and would be there three weeks longer, as tiie surgeons were trying out a now kind of vaccination on him. Ha did not state what disease ho was ill with and wrote as though his folks knew all about his being in the hospliul His previous letter evidently iVvor reached them. "How would you like to he in a hospital in a strange country (our or Ave thousand miles from home with only 50 cents in your pocket." was the plaintive comment written by George in his last letter. He also wrote that for two weeks thero was no ouo In the hospital ho could talk to, as the nurses and attendant were all French. "Hut the other morning." ho continued, "an Irish Ited Cross nurso blew into tho hospital and now mabby wo didn't have a good time talking." Mayor Gate? should' put into prac tice tho policy of a number of Rose burg people who have sons in France and have written home that they are experiencing a decided "drouth" In their exchequer, owing to tho long time elapsing between one pay day to another. Many parents are en closing in a lottor to their aon, ut loust once each week, a greenback of small denomination, thereby making a chain of money reaching tho depleted purse each month. Phono sums should not be large thai the Iosh would fall heavy providing one of the letters should go astray. Many Kosoburg hoys In France are already receiving these small sums and' if you have any idea that the amounts uro not appreciated, Just try tho system on your hoy and watch tho results.

WE know that when food is left ex posed to warm air for a Riven thno ft ferments or turns sour. Food caught bo twoon tho teeth rormuiiLs, and tills fermentation is usually caused by very small planttt called micro-organ in im. Food deposits In the moutli or In boiwoon the teeth soon fer ment and decompose, forming an acid, which Is a solvent for tho onamol of the teeth. Om dtcaymd tooth affmeto it moigk boring tooth, 1 1 will thus bo seen that decay is due to the presence of rer nientlnfcfood particles In the mouth. Removetblsbynieans of a tooth-brush, or dental tioss, or by any other way, and you will help to prooomt decay of teeth. Diseases which occur In childhood, such as tonsilitls, measles, diphtheria, scarlet fever, and others, cause the teeth to become liable to decay more easily. This Is because during sickness the teeth do not receive proper nourishment ftnd care. Very often the six - year molars come through with defective enamel. Wuftn tilts happens to them, or any other tooth. It Is very Important that they be kept cfwfl until they can ho treated and tilled by the dent.au pRfrftWar'A Stmt Dontml Auocimtin of OroQom em: m w FOIJ RENT 4 or 5 room furnished house-keeping flat.
