WHERE'S GERMANY GOING?
Associated Press dispatches Monday Indicate that the German invasion in Russia seems to rest entirely with the Germans. The ease with which the kaiser's forces have conducted their excursion causes one to wonder what has. become of the supposedly ferocious cossacks, who, according to Sam Blythe, in last week's Saturday Evening Post, would eat up the Germans, or something of that sort, when the Germans reached Warsaw.
The bombardment of Belgrade, a few days ago, was generally believed to be the beginning of the German-Serbian drive. But the bombardment has been followed by no further demonstration. It is possible that Germany recognizes the impossibility of winning Bulgaria as an ally, and is unwilling at this time to frighten the Bplkans into belligerency.
From the moment the success of

the Polish campaign was assured there were surmises to the effect that the Germans' might push tiifeir conquering armies Car into the interior of Russia. No one auggested^MoBcow as a possible '.objective, but the vigorous movement^ ifi'-CourlaniJ.- dttd- the probability of- the capture of Ki&a. led to the belief that Von Hin&enburg »mlgbt easily be able to advance to Petrograd.

men are paid more than teachers, oftenta hef'bic undertaking may even yet be nearly twice as much. Salaries of the heads of school sys'tfems Compare more favorably with those of the heads of the fire and police departments, of*en being twice as much as: those of the fire and police chiefs.
A comparison wais made between salaries of rural school teachers* farm hands, and rural matl carriers. The carriers receive an Average wage of $1,115 and the farm hand $257. Figures procured by the committee for va« rlous states show the average salary of rural school teachers to be $445 In Massachusetts, and $223 in Tennessee. -The committee, advised the teachers to keep down expenses compel tax dodgers to pay up organize committees for the Btudy of tax laws and maintain publicity committee?.
considered but the military advantage In capturing the czar's capital would be very, small and the danger very great.'
A far more advantageous line of invasion would be to the south. If the Brest-Litovsk line Is forced the great city of Kief will be within easy striking distance. With Kief in German possession, and with the Russians expelled from Bukowina and Podolia an advance might be made on Odessa.
Nowhere else, west or south, could the Gerrfians strike with such telling advantage. Odessa is Russia's great food port. Were it to fall into German hands, the Russian difficulties would be many tlmc-s multiplied. It Is to open Odessa to the commerce of Germany's enemies that the allies are now batering, at the Dardanelles forts.
A BAD LOT.
In the Tribune mail Monday was the following letter, which brings up. a pertinent topic: Editor of the Tribune:
Sir—You printed a cartoon characterizing the lynching'of Leo Frank as "barbarism.". Every, right minded person will agree wVtb you in that attitude, but is- the lynching of Leo Frank any tnore to be severely condemned than the lynching by hanging ana burning alive of hundreds of negroes? The mob killeJ Frank because he was a Jew the mob kills the negro because he is black. The prejudice against the one is as'senseless as 'against the other.
Your editorial on the Milledgeville tragedy Is on the rtght lines but why reserve all your indignation--for lawlessness in that case? I cannot conceive that it is any worse than the burning alive of negroes, at the stake. Barbarism is barbarism, whether the negro or the white man is. the (victim.
If the newspapers would denounce lawlessness without regard to racial

distinctions perhaps there would be better enforcement of law. The writer has taken the one ^nd only sid^ which this subject has. If conditions in the south recommend' a more drastic treatment for some crimes^ the laws should be made to conform to \pUblic opinion. Lynching -everywhere is a p. offense against civilization. If our protest against the Frank tragedy seems overly-empha-sized, it Is merely because the case is newest in public mind. The best thing out of, the whole terrible situation is Georgia's bitter remonstrance against the north's folding her responsible for the acts of the mob. Her protest is the best sign that the lynching habit in the south is, at some early day, going to be eradicated.
REFORM RUN WILD.
A recent attempt to get a bill through the Alabama senate, placing the ban on all Sunday amusements, met with overwhelming defeat.
The fpllowlng result of'the vote on the bill Is from the New Orleans States: "At a night session of the senate the drastic Sunday blue laws measure met with defeat by a vote of 24 to 7. Nearly forty thousand signatures attached to petitions from the larger cities of the state were presented. The bill provided for prohibition of baseball, moving pictures and ail Sunday amusements, except golf. An amendment was adopted whicji gave cities of over twenty-five thbusand the power to regulate Sunday amusements through the city commissions. When the amended bill was passed the author withdrew the original and after a long fight* the slate was cleaned of all restrictions as to Sunday amusements."
The item suggests how the people of this country, blunder along on mati ters which otlfer peoples halve1- solved aeons ago. The suggestion that the people be deprived- of every pleasure with, the exception &f golf reveals the utter nonsense of the. plan. How many people play golf? If the limit of per sonal liberty in this country Is to be bounded by an eighteen-hole golf course, those not addicted to golf bet ter move ont.

According to astrology this is an exceedingly doubtful day, for Venus, Saturn and the sun, exercising variable power, change from good to evil influence. Jupiter is in a place faintly beneflc in its power.
This is not an auspicious rule for the affairs of women, who will meet temporary disappointment, even though they gain ultimate power. They will sow seed that will bring great harvest later, but success in public movements will be attained slowly.
The rule is not an auspicious one for love affairs. Marriages will de-' cline during the next few weeks.
Weddings are Hot fortunately ruled today, as the) stars Indicate lack of prosperity and serious misunderstandings.
There Is a sign read as indicative of Increase In certain lines of trade. The manufacture of glass and crock.ery is under a lucky direction.
Those wjho read the stars declare that the beginning of the thousahd years in which men shall attain spiritual dominion Is at hand, but they foresee In the next half decade that exeat nations will exhaust themselves and be reduced to desolation, while "pestilence, buga and Insanity* will afflict the peoples of Europs."
The prophecies set forth that ^'churches, governments and society which have dealt falsely" shall disintegrate, but in the new day which will dawn man will come Into his higher heritage and the "remnant of the people" shall possess all that is de3lrable.
Persons whose birthdate It is should be exceedingly careful during the coming year, which may bring business and domestic anxieties.
Children born on this day have the augury of many vicissitudes. These subjects of Virgo are not easily discouraged. Many writers are born under this sign.

How to Heal Skin-Diseases
A Baltimore doctor suggests this simple, but reliable and inexpensive, home treatment for people suffering with eczema, ringworm, rashes and a it in burning skin troubles. At any reliable druggist's get a jar &t- resinol pintment and a cake of reslnoal soap. These are not at all expensive. With the resinol soap and warm water bathe the affected parts thoroughly, until they are free from crusts and the skin is softened. Dry very genfly, then-spread on a thin laj'er of the-, resinol ointment, and cover with a light bandage—if necessary to protect the clothing. This should be done twice 'a day. Usually the distressing Itching and burning stop with the first treatment, and the skin soon becomes clear and healthy again. Sample free, Dept. 28-R, Resinol, Baltimore, Md.
