Phone Main 81. THE HABIT OF THRIFT Lots of people expect to acquire their good habits in their second childhood. And one of the good habits long put off is thrift. Often this habit does not come in second childhood. With appettites and passions burned out of the decaying mind and body old men may find themselves freed from temptations and wrongly consider their condition due to ripened virtue. ' But thrift, like any other "virtue" forced upon one by nature, is apt to find its environment unhealthy and to curdle in penurious meanness. If thrift is to be wholesome and sweet and IruiUul it must be embraced while the mind and body are healthy and vigorous. .... .. Thrift is a composite quality. It embraces within it self nearly all of the great virtues. It implies industry, prudence, forethought, self-denial. It certainly has no relation to niggardliness or meanness. Some men would let their grandmothers starve to death for the sake of a few dollars. That cannot be called thrifty. . . . Any" virtue carried to excess becomes a vice and is no longer virtue. Thrift that does not take into partnership honesty and charity soured into covetousness and avarice. True thrift is the opposite of thriftlessness, prodigal ity, improvidence and waste. Thrift means better homes and better food moie comfort and enjoyment, less waste and less anxiety. Out of it grow quickened energies, firmer courage, more stalwart courage and hope, mo re citn ship, education and a good chance in life for the , chMien, and the independence and self respect that hit aimless, hopeless drudges up to true manhood. Advocates of a big navy just as all other people who get absessed with a single idea cannot, or at least do not treat the subject of the worth of submarines lairly. The point to the work of the German submarines and because they have not destroyed the whole British me rchant marine, speak of them in slighting terms. The act is that a submarine operating from a port for a radius of Sty or a hundred miles, is a much more poweriu engine v . .i 1 Aomml nn Vmrw'l roils Ot of warfare than tne same mwi vy : miles from its base. A few powerful submarines m New York harbor would make any warship or fleet ot them chary about fooling around it. I)r Charles EagkTof San Mateo, California, has filed suit against Miss lola Redwing for $15,000 damages lor injuries to his heart caused by her rel using to marry him after promising to do so. Evidently he has a heart that ?8 not suited to his name and belongs to a dove instead. As he alleged he had also spent $1:J0 for a supper for lie , it may be that the principal injury was to his pocket book Still being a doctor he should know the di lerence between the two?, and also be able to diagnose his case properly. The silk worm has turned. With prosperity at high mark and millions of women financially entitled to revel in silk stockings, gowns and lingerie, the silkworm has turned. In other words,. it has gone on a strike, Chicago wholesalers declare. To add to the increased prices of clothing due to shortage of dyestufl's because ot tho war. the whole world of styles and textiles is on its knees be fore the royal cocoon. Everywhere tho raw silk crop is lighter, according to authoritative advices. Frederick Warde, the grand old man of the American stage, will lecture on his favorite character ''Hamlet in Salem tonight, and deserves a great audience. Mr. Warde is a gentleman, a scholar, an actor of rare ability, one who has no superior in the knowledge of the English Innminvn Ho livn II 1 1 11PI 1 1 1 .HI f '1111 llCM fl 1 1 Oil 31ld CXPrCSSlOH.

This is evidenced in newspaper comment throughout the country, and by the sentiment of members of the na tional congress, the lower house yesterday passing the first of the greater navy bills with practically no oppo sition. . The Washington Post puts it about right when it says that the opponents of a stronger navy forget that the United States is responsible for the independence of every nation in the New World. It is the voluntary pro tector of one-half of the world. The defense of New York, San Francisco and other American ports is not enough. An attack by a European or Asiatic power upon Buenos Aires or Valparaiso, preliminary to conquest, would have to be met by the United States navy. Such an attack would be a blow at the United States. The as sault would be repulsed, not simply for the sake of Argentina or Chile but for the sake of this nation, which cannot remain safe and permit American democracies to be supplanted by empires and monarchies. The Monroe Doctrine was never more alive than it is today. It was never more necessary. The supreme test of its effective ness may come during the present war in Europe or im mediately there after. It has been well said that the Monroe Doctrine is part of the unwritten Constitution of the United States. It is not in writing, and it need not be in writing. It is flexible, according to the conditions to which it must be applied; but everybody knows what it is. Look and Feel Clean, Sweet and Fresh Every Day Drink a glass of real hot water befare breakfast to wash out polsont. So long as the people of Oregon are powerless to change matters why not accept them as they are and let the settlement of the railroad land grant rest. The supreme court has decided the lands belong to hte rail road, and that settles it. Now let us accept the decision at its face value and proceed to levy and collect taxes on the lands instead of fooling around with them until we succeed m getting them into a reservation where they will do nobody any good, not even contributing to the taxes. ' Over in Marshfield they have an editor who wants war, war to the knife and the knife to the hilt and he wants it without any unnecessary delay. The Record says: "The school-teacher talk President Wilson is making nowadays is as empty as the winter winds. What Amer icans want is action and less "crisis" overcomings. They have grown tired of the latter long ago." ' The Hopi Indians are hopping mad and threaten to go on the warpath in Northern Arizona. There are 25,000 of them and those American editors who are spoiling for a fight may be able to find sufficient diversion of that kind without crossing the Mexican line. What Colonel Roosevelt will do is said to be worrying the politicians. This is dead easy. The doughty colonel will do whatever is least expected of him and at the same time the most spectacular. JUST AS GOOD You write a book that makes a hit ; it's full of happy phrases5 and readers all refuse to quit a-singing of its praises. The novel fan your volume buys, whenever he can strike it; and then the Just As Gooders rise, and write some books "just like it. The country's inundated with your type of sparkling story; and Jones and Brown and Jinks and Smith are borrowing your glory. The Just As Gooder lies in wait for all who gain attention, and all their curves he'll emulate, with gall too fierce to mention. If you invent a garden gate, that has all others beaten, the Just As Gooder makes its mate before his grub he's eaten. If you turn out a tvpe of pome, you have the same old trouble; the Just As Gooder rushes home, in haste to write its double. If you've a cold such ailments rise, at divers times, and curse one the Just As Gooder sits and lies, and says he has a worse one. The Just As Gooder trails along, like doom, behind his betters, and makes a mess of Art and Song, Mechanics, Commerce, Letters. Life is not merely to live, lint to live well, cat well, digest well, work well, sleep well, look well. What a glorious condition to nttuiu, and yet how very easy it is if one will only adnpt t lie morning inside imtli. Folks who are o customed to feel dull and heavy when they urine, split ting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stag nant matter. Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning, before tirenkfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspuiriiful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bow-els the previous day's indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous taxins: thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. Tho action of hot wafer and limestone phosphate on nn empty stomach is wonderfully i nvigornting. It cleans out nil- the. sour fermentations, guses, wasto and acidity and gives one n splendid appetite for breakfast. While con nro enjoying your breakfast the water and phosphate is quietly ex tracting a large volume of water from the Idood and getting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inside organs. The millions of people who nro bothered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism; others who have willow skins, blood disorders and sickly complexions are urged to get n quarter pound of lime stone phosphate from the drug store which will (cost very little, but is suf ficient to make anyone a pronounced crank on the subject of internal sanitation.
