Young us the unofficial representatives of the United States oil the commission to investigate Germany's financial condition, gives tho best possible assurunce that both a veracious and 'picturesque report will bo the result. ; Brigadier General Dawes scurcely needs an introduction. As lieu tenant-colonel of railway engineei'S'-in active service in France, anil 11s a member of the Allied Liquidation commission; )e had probably the best opportunity of any American to obtain first bund understand ing of the intricucics of the problem which he is now called upon to tolvc. A banker of high standing, first director of the budget und comptroller of the currency, Mr. Dawes has both the technical know! edge and coura-ge to not only obtain the facts, but to give them un varnished to the world. ' Mr. Young is not so well known, but his selection too is an excel lent one. He was appointed to the second industrial conference by 1 'resident Wilson, is a lawyer of recognized ability in New York City, but is perhaps best known as a live wire, up-to-date and very successful business man. . ,, .. The phenomenal success of the General Electric company is largely attributed to Mr. Young's keen business insight, resourcefulness and uggressive leadership. Like his official co-worker he is strikingly hu man, direct, unconventional, cares little for traditions, and can b( depended upon to brush aside red tape, and go straight for the facts and the results in characteristic Yankoe fashion. Secretary Hughes isVery 'fcareful'to say that Messers. Dnwcs nntl Young act only "in an individual itud'private capacity and not in uny measure as representatives of the' United States." So much tho better. Unhampered' by official obligations and reti cences these two distinguished "Go-Getters" will be able to ferret out the truth if the truth can be found. '. And that is all this country wants. The people are sick of propoganda. They want the facts, and with the facts feel capable of drawing their two conclusions, as to who is right and who is wrong, across the water. QUILL POINTS Personal Health Service By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D. Noted Phytician and Author To Meet, the Llttlo Stronger j " Where is the better place to wel-i parents of the bride anyway they're aei;vered safely. The big. Important, sensible, scientific thing, however, is to know in advance whether every thing is all -right. This means pre natal care for the prospective mother. from her doctor or a maternity center or a hospital dispensary or clinic. -i about . 20,000 come the Rig Noise, alias Ll'l Stran ger a home or in the hospital? When a family goes li for expansion, shall the lady of the house go to the hospl tal to pick out her baby, or shall a doc tor and a nurse come and deliver one at home? In the first place, some of us have simply got to stay home to receive our babies. Suppose we live in Brooklyn, as So many Now York folks dot Well, we must arrange some how to receive babies annually In Brooklyn; all the hospitals in Brook lyn provide JUBt 300 beds for obstetric coses, half of which are In private hospitals, the other half in public charity Institutions. So some of , us must stay at homo and have a doctor and a nurse deliver the babies there. It costs more money, undoubtedly. to stay at homo to have the baby de livered; than it does to go to the hos pital. That Is why It is so popular jUBt now to spend two or three weeks n the ho9bltal selecting, a suitable baby to curry back to the house or up to tho flat." But for those who can possibly afford to stage the affair at home, It is worth the extra cost; In deed It is. The function brings a glamor to tho spot you call home, be it humble or grand, a glamor which no othor reception or affair can bring, unless it would be the Li'l Stranger's wedding or some such event.

The were showing a picture a few months ago of gland surgery, and I wondered if it was faked. Do Bur geons, as a rule, believe in this work, and is It really restoring youth ? (W. B. K.) . . Answer. If a surgeon could really restore youth by an operation, the chances are the surgeon would never permit a publio exhibition of the work. Child Training My patience is nearly exhausted, trying to train my 22 months old baby to use his chair. I started to train him at the ago of eight months to have regular times to use his nursery chlr, but then we were away from home a good deal, and thore were not always tho conveniences for tho little, fellow. Unless I UBe enemas or other means to force his .bowels, thore are, no1 results, until ho 'leaves the chair, and plays about. (Mrs. F. E. ) Answer. It is better to place the child on tho nursery chair at regular times tusuauy alter morning, noon and evening meals) and keep him thero 10 minutes if necessary.

Correct this sentence: "It isn't that I don't trust you." exclaimed the merchant, "but it's against our rules to sell on credit." Moral courage is the quality thatkeeps you from sneaking 'un an alley tlio lirst tuno you put on knickers. A great, novelist is one who can give his setting an atmosphere of ulture without using a single French phrase.
