Some business ttexr are asking-for a lowering of rates, while others are ' urging An increase. About 50 petitions have, been filed, the wool schedule .and the hosiery industry being among the more important affected. Never before has a tariff " ; act- contained, the means for making ,it conform to ' " changes as they occur in the relative cost of production at ?9Ihpme ;ad -abroad, 'The provision in the present law nialces it the, most efficient tariff statute ever enacted." .

"Alice in Won derland," "Robinson Cruso," "Tom Sawyer" and "Treasure Is land" came next in the order named. After that opinions di vided over a wide field. It ts no easy task to agree on the fifty best - books for young folks. It 13 virtually as difficult as it Is to make the proper selection for white whiskered patriots, who are but children of an older growth. The selection of three feet of books is sufficient tinder to start a war a literary war. A FEMTXIXE WORLD A world Inhabited by women only and these pitiless, hard and cruel! A community Jike that of thd bees; with every indirfdual working furiously. to the limit of, its power! With all ideals smoth ered and only cold, applied sci ence surviving! Such is the vision of our world in the future seen by Dr. Nicola Telsa, an eminent electrical scientist. And women in their encroach ment on the sphere of man are to blame. . Surely Dr. Tesla is the supreme pessimist of the ages. But If he should be right, -what a (huge joke it would be on the women. . It seems more" likely, though, that the increasing opportunities of women will result Jn their be ing more subservient than domin ating in the future. , , , .. C Women of the -more masculine and dominating' type are finding Increasing opportunities for their participation in business, govern ment and the professions.' Their inclinations for marriage not be ing as strong as their desires for power and successful careers, they will not be so pFone to mar ry. .- " v ' ' ' This should naturally result in a selective process eliminating all but the more feminine women whose whole lives lie in love and their . homes. What effect this selective process will have on the men of the"future is yet another problem. - , THE NEMESIS . The production ' of "Peacock AHeyis being, held up in (Paris while a once-famous dancer sues the filmerS for 1,000.000 francs or so of damages. The dainty Farisienne declares that the pic ture Is thefrated story of' her own career filched boldly front lle without consent or compensation. If she had the 1.000.000 franc3 he would not grieve so much, brt for others to capitalize her indis cretions and make money out of them is impossible--or words to that effect. Does net a lady pos sess her own fraiities? : CAHVIXG HIS WAt A famous surgeon has perform ed more than 15,000 operations for appendicitis in the last 25 years. 'It would seem that he should be in a fair way to have all the money there is in the world, yet report says that he is. not even a millionaire. Anyhow,' he is a great cut-up. POTATOES TO BURX Accofc-ding to this decision the flagons would be worth Just a3 much empty as when filled. A1-. though there are frenty of mea who would be pleased to offer $10,000 for the liquor taken la this case, the court says there i? no value in property that is out lawed and subject to instant de struction. If this ruling Is gen erally established folks who still have some nippage on hand will have trouble in holding the same. If rum is neither goods nor.chat tles it will at least be a matter of finders keepers. The guy with the jimmy and bludgeon will be the accomplished finder. Over 40,000.000 bushels of po tatoes are still in the hands of the Wisconsin farmers. In time a man can grow weary of having his hands fall of baked potatoes. Residents of the state are being urged to do something about it. Milwaukee not drawing its ac customed ration of kartoffel salad and It may be that many spuds will be carried over nntll the next crop. ' J RULE OP THE RED The celebration of the Rusaian scviets Is based upon the amaz ing supposition that the Bolshe vist have accomplished something to be proul of. They have had five years of power and Lenin and are observing it by ordering that ayard of red Hag be flown from thefoof of every habitation In air Russia. The red is. presumed to represent the achievements ,'ot the Commune. In a way it does. The Ufe tyood of a once competent and industrlou people has been rather- thoroughly, drained away. . So far as the outside world may ken the soviet regime bas resulted in throwing ... the nation, with the greatest man - power" upon tho charity of the world. No mere war could have done this. Russia under the czars would have been productive and self sustaining by this time, even after the trage dies of the-field of Mars. Russia may survive, but can never for get the tragedies of soviet rule.

THE SHORT STORY, JR. ) W ; ---- Old Unci Joe pulled his Veard and looked Cworried It waa-ihe nrrnnH lima tin 1ial tia.,j il. w.th black paint, lips with red, - strange word in the last five min utes. First, as he was passing twor girls on' the other Ide ; of the street he saw. them point di rectly at him and then . both screamed ZItz!" When he look ed, 'back, a. moment later they turned-red and giggled until he was out of .sight. ' Now. he hadjust passed two high school students and hewaal sure that he heard' one of them excitedly whisper I'ZIfx?, as h passed. Uncle Joe thought sadly that '-the younger generation naraa getting sillier every day. iBtzt when on the next "' corner 'the grandson of . hispid friend Sarii Parks punched his Companion .and they both hissed "Zitz" in Mh other's . - ears, he decided -that either he or all the young peo ple of the town : had , gon crazy: What did that mysterious Word mean , anyway? 4 He .had t never heard. it before., He concluded that he Would stop in the library nd,look it up In the dictionary. ; A group .of young people was gathered' on the steps of the lib rary. , As Uncle Joe passed it sounded to him like a number of fire crackers going off, "Zitz, Zitx, Zltx." Uncle Joe began to look scared. It surely must be he. All the young people of the town could not be going crazy ct tho same. time. There v was no such word in a the dictionary. Yes, It was as hot had always feared. He was going to get queer and childish, in bis old age." But what" a strango way to be affected, to be hannted by 6 'ord and to Imagine tbat;very one was whispering it. '. Hi never beard of such a thing. He thought he'd better stop in and see his old friend. Dr. Sam Parks. Maybe he could explain it. - Uncle Joe thought he had never seen Dr. Sam look so old and haggard. He sat slumped down in his chair, dejectedly, pulling his beard in a way bo had when something worried ,hir.. Joe fell Into the first chafr and immedi ately; began on his stzange symn toms. . Dr. 3am lumped "up In amazement, s ' '" "Joe,' he cried, it can't be that. we are both going crazy. 1 thought I was cracked sure and have been reading every, medical book I can get mr, hands on. but I can't (lpd a single Tecord td! r any, such cases. Even my grand- children whisper that confounded word when I come Into the room." - . - Joe was encouraged. Ithewaa going crazjr, Dr. gam wis, too so he would have company. Here comes Dick now. Ask him what it all means," he said Dick looked embarrassed at his grandfather's "question. "Well, you see," he said, "It's a game we play. Everytime - you see a man with whiskers you yell Zitz to the person you are with- When you have 13 'Zitzes he has to treat you to an ice cream soda." The old men (pulled itheir beards and tried not to laugh in relief. And a billy goat counts the whole game," added Dick. t ' - - I PICWRE PUZZLE I WHAT TEN WORDS BEGIN N1N0 VYTTH THE SATVE LETTER ARE HERE PICTURED?
