TO IMPORT AUSTRALIAN WHEAT Arrangements have been made by the food administra tion to move some of the surplus wheat of Australia and Argentine to the United States. Japan has agreed to furnish the United States more than half a million tons of shipping, and about half of this at once. This will be used for bringing wheat from Australia first, and then a part of the ships will be kept steadily in this trade. Australia has 1CO,000,000 bushels laying on her wharves awaiting shipment, and nowhere is the shortage of ships better exemplified than by this fact. With all the tonnage made available by the acquisition of Japanese ships it will be nossible to move only about ten million bushels of the j Australian crop and that of the Argentine, by the first of September. To accomplish this quite a fleet of Swedish ships -will also be used. A ship of six t housand tons capac ity would carry but 200,000 bushels of wheat and to move the crop now waiting in Australia would require a fleet of 750 such ships, or of 150 ships each making five round trips. As arrangements have been made for landing 1,666,000 bushels a month at Pacific coast ports this means the equivalent of eight ships of 6,000 tons each arriving every month. This by the 'way should relieve the lumber industry some for with Australia and the Orient needing lumber it, is not likely the ships will be allowed to return empty. The kaisers picked storm troops have gone up again against the Americans, 1,200 of thein being hurled at the boys in khaki. They came with a rush and succeeded in forcing the Americans back taking a small village in the rush.

Reports of the earthquake in Southern California yes terday stated that in the midst of the shako nn "Mount Jacinto, an extinct volcano, spouted a sheet of flame and then the mountain was obscured by dust." It is not likely anything of the kind happened, but it is a strange thing that with every earthquake, almost, some volcano is seen by some one to get busy and go to spouting lava and flames. No well regulated earthquake story has any ex cuse for its repetition without this accompaniment. A general strike of organized labor affecting 3,200 members of 27 unions is in effect at Waco, Texas.

" "Yes sir, thuuk you, sir," trembled Ponders. "Very good of you, sir. and I appreciate it, sir, and I'll take it to heart, -sir.

A tew sucn Brand Whitlock's description of the atrocities prac- "tcu uy rrussians wnen Belgium was overrun is enough to make one ashamed of belonging to the human family. What a pity it ' is that the leaders, the ones responsible for such horrible crimes cannot be identified and brought before a court of all nations to have their punishment meted out to them. Still it would be impos sible to find a punishment that wouli fit the crime. Please don't think me horrid to say such a thing." Just then Morton's man brought in the luncheon, so he didn't answer for a moment. Evelvit came over and stood by me, and said laughingly: "Jel'U is right. There is no soul in that picture."

He nearly always dined out. Then, the big studio with its wonderful tapestries,- its finished and unfinished pic tures, its quaint bric-a-brac and bionzes picked up on his travels, which inter ested me most of all. (Tomorrow New Thoughts and Ideas) mix-ups will do more to lower the morale ot the in vincible" storm troops than all the scrapping they have had to do since the war began. That court of morals, so called, at Chicago, having de cided that vice was not punishable unless its practice was in public, establishes the law as permitting a man and troman to register as man and wife at any hotel though they are not such, and they can live there indefinitely so lone as no one ot the vicious acts are performed in pu& lie. It seems too the United States government is not able to punish the offense. It is no doubt true that the boys who went over to France to mtke the world better- are red-blooded. This being the case the government mieht establish a precedent and dispose of the nasty Thomas case by giving Lieutenant Granger, husband of the woman in the case, a ten weeks' furlough with permis sion to return home. A recently enacted law followed by a proclamation is sued by the president makes women as well as men sub ject to the laws and orders concerning enemy aliens. Heretofore only males were prohibited from zones around arsenals and similar places, and the women, were given full freedom to go and come as they pleased. Now all enemy alien women must get out of the District of Colum bia by tonight, and must register the same as the men. The number of German women in the United States is placed at 400,000 or 100,000 less than the males. Women of Austria-Hungary are shown the same leniency that has been extended the males and will be subject to internment only if they prove dangerous. Only a little more than three weeks until the primaries. Until these take place the fight over the governorship and that for the United States senatorship will keep getting warmer.

The house yesterday afternoon passed the senate bill providing for the melting of $350,000,000 silver dollars now in the treasury.

Little Costa Rica, just to show her heart is in the right place, will conduct a campaign for the sale of United States liberty loan bonds. This is a statement made by ex-president Alfred Gonzales of that country. Costa Rica was among the first of the American republics to follow the lead of this country and sever relations with Germany.

Mrs. of a committee arwodntod for labeling and preparing the 2200 books recently given to th soldiers, announces that it -will require the help of about 25 willing workers tliis week to prepare the books for shipment to Portland and Camp Lewis. Tuesday afternoon, from 1:30 o'clock tmitil S o'clock, those who are willing to do patriotic work are asked to come. to the library and help. Tho work is not difficult, bu the handling of 2200 books is considerable of a task and it will be necessary to call for volun teers. Beginning Wednesday, workers can be used both in mornings and after noons. This work Is the pasting on of labels, arranging tho card pocket and sUinping on the lalbel. It is quito easy but just takes ttmo. Hence the call foT volunteers to work at tho library dur ing the week. "Turn the dark clouds inside out un til the boys come home."

Any druggist can supply you with zemo, which generally overcomes aU skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, pim ples, rashes, blackheads, in most cases give way to zemo. Frequently, minor blemishes disappear overnight Itching usually stops instantly. Zemo is a safe, antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and dependable.' It costs only 35c; an extra large bottle, $1.00. It will not stain, is not greasy or sticky and is positively, safe for tender, sensitive skins. The E. W.

IP y ffir. i I As almost everybody knows, this is one of the commonest of diseases, more or fewer cases be ing present almost constantly. Wherever insufficient attention Is given to drainage, water supply and general sanitation, there typhoid fever is apt to be prevalent. It most frequently attacks young " adults or those who are mature, but no period of life and neither sex Is Immune to it. Essentially it is inflammation of certain groups of small glands in the Intestine and its supporting band, the mesentery, and of the spleen. The germ which causes it is known as the Bacillus typhosus and it .may be found in the evacua tions from tho bowel. It lives In water and grows with great rapidity unless It is destroyed by suitable antiseptics. It gets Into water that Is used for washing, drinking, or cooking and finally gets back into the human body. Possibly it is carried by the air and may be taken In by the nose or mouth and it is very frequently introduced by milk or other food, solid or liquid which may have been contaminated by It. Typhoid carriers are people who carry the germs about with them perhaps for years, and do not themselves seom to be injured by them, but by Infecting materials, particularly food with which they come in contact, they may trans mit the disease to any number of people who happen to be sensitive to it. When these ge- reach the in testine of those who are sensitive, they attack the glands which were mentioned as the csseit.H seat of the disease and, during the subse qtiant.ten days to three weeks, the disease is incubating or developing The patient may feel rather mis erable, but may he able to kep about and frequently promises him self he will be all right to-morrow.

During all this period inflamma tory changes in the glands are pro gressing, tho spleen gets very large and soft, the glands in the intestine swell and break and sores or ulcers are formed, from which, when formed, decomposed and putrid ma terials proceeds. This Is very poisonous and more or less of It is usually absorbed and carried by the blood to all parts of the body. Questions and Answers. . - TP. R. R.

AnswerIt I were you I would not place .much dependence on either the snake skin or the beads as a means of curing goitre. It can sometimes be relieved by diet and the use of certain drugs.
