WAS ALWAYS POPULAR GAME

Those Who Think There Is Anything "New tk Profiteering Have Another Gums Coming. The high cost of living was Just as much a problem In Elizabethan' time# as It is todajh Th# Rev. William Harrison, as quaint a gossip as Pepys, and equully gifted as a chronicler, complained that magistrates In his day winked at merchants who more for commodities than they were r ortnitt.H bylaw to chaxgg- In thatgay, as in this, “bodgers"—this delightfully descriptive word is of the dominie’s own coining—were allowed “to bum up corn and raise the price of it; to carry it home unsold, or to a distant market, If they want more money than the huyat—llk*« fft jay ; nay, they’ve leave to export It for em lir MemW al)Fo'a6. ¥o ais to make more profit. - —— During the world war there was much talk of certain Amerjcans who deliberately destroyed carloads of potatoes. cabbages and other vegetables and foodstuffs In order to raise the prices of*these commodities. Same old story. There’s nothing new, remarks J. N. H„ fin Rochester Post-Express. Again, to hark back to good Canon Harrison, "pester)ferous purveyors buy tip eggs, chickens, bacon, etc.; butter men travel about and buy up butter at farmers' houses, and have raised its price from 18d to 40d a gallon. These tilings are ill for the buyer and the poor man, and should not be allowed. After all about the only thing that Is true Is that there Is no new thing under the sun. Like the poor, the profiteer is always with us.

TAX EXPERTS LOSING SLEEP

Question, “When Is a Girl a Miss?” Is Puzzling— Bureau of internal Revenue. The other day Lew Hahn, executive -secretary of the National Retail l>ry Goods association, took the joy out of life* for' the experts of the bureau of internal revenue when he asked whether corsets were underwear. Now he has gone and done it again, the query this time being:, “When does a girl become a miss?" Framers of the new revenue tax law Included In the list of taxables “women’s and misses’ wearing apparel.” Experts of the bureau, Mr. Hahn says, have Informed retailers that no tax Is to be collected on wearing apparel for girls. " "IT . __ I T Retailers say there are hundreds and hundreds of misses, and quite a few married women, who are so petite that they can still wear, and therefore buy, girls’ clothes. Does the fact that such articles of clothing are to be worn by women of mature years change the nature of the apparel In the eyes of the law; or do garments designed for girls remain girls’ wear, regardless of the age of those who buy and wear them? This Is the puzzle Mr. Haha has put up to the bureau experts.

A Waiting Game.

“Suppose you wait here. In this comfortable seat while I match these two samples of ribbon,” said Mrs. Simson sweetly to her husband, who had been entrapped into going shopping with her. When she came back she said contritely: “Have I kept you waiting an unpardonable long time, you poor dear?” — “Oh, I haven’t minded it," ho said cheerfully. "I just jumped on a car mSSeSr find then ! took a HttlesplmlnJack Dance’s new car. Did you match the samples?” “One of them. It’s so provoking. I shall have to come in again tomorrow, for they are Just closing tfiershop."— London Ideas.

Tuba May Strike Next.

Add to the strikes for higher wages that of negro washerwomen of Louisville. Aunt Katie (last name not known even to patrons) was asked the other day If she could do a washing the next day. “’Deed no; chile,” was the reply. “An’ any more washing! I do is goln’ to cost yuh ten centa moah," she added. —Pressed —sor —an —explanation; Aunt Katie said that she and “seb’ral other washer ladies are goln’ on a picnic today and won't do no washln’ for nobuddy." “Furdemoah, dls ten centa moah all the time now. De street car men Is goqna git moah dan dat fer strikin’, and so is us,” was her explanation.— Louisville Courier-Journal.

Medical Education In China.

The China medical board of the Rockefeller foundation will -soon have in operation In Peking a splendid Institution for medical research and teaching—the Peking Union Medical college. A group of IS buildings' Ts in course of construction. On account of their green-tiled roofs the new buildings have already aiCquired the name o# “the Green City.” The college .will open in the autumn of 1619. A preparatory school was opened two years ago. It la axpected that the whole establish tq&nt, Including a new hospital, will .m running by the end of 1020.

CLINIC HAS PROVED WORTH

Organization Establlahad by Boston Firm Well Worthy as Imitation by Other Employ ere. TjTplSneer medioal clinic, established 15 years ago to protect the health of 600 employees, and gradually enlarged and expanded until It now cares for a total of 2,700 —that la the record proudly held today by a well-known Boston firm. At the time of 4ts organization the medical, director was In charge of the clinic In the capacity of director iaa“vliTflng hurse. Now the clinic Is in charge of a practicing physician and surgeon, assisted by three full-lira®. graduate nurses. During the influenza epidemic of last winter, over 350 employees were treated per day, with only six deaths during the entire course of the dreaded disease. All cases were given careful Individual attention and, In instances wlfere no family doctor was, fa attendance, immediate arrangements were made for medical care. *— It is the policy of the nurses in the clinic to advise all employees with whom they come In contact to be Insured, an activity which the firm Itself handles through an employees’ organization. The purpose of such advice is to secure insurance for all employees In order that they may receive Its benefits after one week’s Illness. This arrangement does not place a premium upon the employees’ being ill, and at the same time the clinic cooperates In the matter of insurance. A dental clinic is in a formative state and, no doubt, will be established' in a short time. The plan and method of administration and organization is simply In the making, but It is safe to say that the dental clinic will be as efficient as the medical clinic. The. Modern Hospital, in describing the clinic, says that.it has fully proved its value-in protecting the health of the employees of this particular company merits the commendation and Imitation of other mercantile and Indpstrinl ftßtnhll < f >, ™ on * a

SEEMINGLY NO AGE LIMIT

Applicants for Divorce Are by No Means Always in the Day* of Their Callow Youth. There is no age limit to divorce. In Oregon a woman at the age of eightytwo years is suing for a decree from her husband, who is a callow stripling of seventy-one summers. This seems to be another case of too much mother-in-law, as the wife asserts that her husband’s love has- been- aliens ted and undermined through the work of his mother, who Is now ninety-four years old and who never dM like her, anyhow. They have been married some ten years now, and the wife said that when the husband todk her money to buy an auto for' his mother an{l wouldn’t let his wifs ride In it, she knew that his love was dead. When she remonstrated the husband Coldly informed her that she could leave the house. When the wife said that the home was her own and bought with her own money the husband replied that might be so, but he had thoughtfully had the deed recorded in his own name. Now she has to appeal to the courts. It is rather rough when a bride of elglity-two has to compete with a ninety-four-year-old mother-in-law for the affections of her husband.

A Foreign Ship.

Homer L. Ferguson, president of the chamber of commerce of the United States, has, stirred up the patrtots over th<r reproduction of a foreign ship betng on our Iweuty-ffoHaf bills. Making a speech recently, and seeking to Impress his auditors with the fact that this country has entirely too few ships, he whipped out a twenty-dollar bill and declared: ‘‘Why, even the ship reproduced on this bill Is one that was taken over by this egunfiy during the war. It flies the AmericWi flag, all right, but It Is a forelgn-bullt ship.” Examination proved he was absolutely correct. The ship has four funnels, and there never has been a fourfunneled ship built In this country for our foreign trade.

The Mean Man.

Everybody knows thestory about poor Tom Sharkey, who electrified the loungers In his saloon one day by saying heartily, “Well, boys, what are we going to' have?” And then, as the loungers gathered round the bar, he added, “Rain or shine?” Lee of Chick amauga told a story of a similar kind about a mean man at Atlantic City Some friends visited him on a hot eve slug and after they had sweltered a while In the sitting room he said: “ ‘Well, friends, could you stand some refreshments?' “'We certainly could!’ the visitors replied, and they moistened their dry ltpsdn pleasant anticipation. ‘''‘Then,’ said the mean man. rising, •we’ll open this window. There's promise of a breexe.’ ’’ "

The Uplift.

A senator, apropos of tlie huge quantity of army meat which It was proposed should be sold to the packers for less than half the price paid them by the government, said r “Why sell this meat to the packers? Would it not be better to sell it to consumers direct and thud aid In reducing the eost of living?” The senator added bitterly: “The high coat of living ! We heard a lot about the uplift movement to be expected as the result of the war, but we didn't expect the* uplift to he eea centra ted on price*. ”
