ANOTHER CAUSTIC ARRAIGNMENT. ' The South Bend Tribune has had experiences of it? own with the nitwits who have spoiled the Santa Claus letter practice, and, in commenting on the Times' editorial, pays: "It is really too bad some way cannot be devised to make these numskulls pay the penalty themselves instead of having to deprive the children of the joy they had in -writing to Santa Claus." If they were possessed of sufficient gray matter to think some hope mis; lit be entertained that their reasoning facilities could he appealed to. Xor can they bp touched in the name of childhood. They are insensible to any appeal. They are nit-wits."

'QUICK RELIEF FROM i CONSIIPATIOII Get Dr. Edwards-' Olive Tablets i That is the joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced Olive Tabj lets, the substitute for calomel. i j Dr. Edwards, a practicing physician 1 for 17 years and calomel's old-time en- I

jemy, discovered the formula for Olive i

; Tablets while treating patients for j chronic constipation and torpid livers. I Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, but a healing, soothing: vegetable laxative. No griping is the "keynote" of these j little sugar-coated, olive-colored tablets. ! They cause the bowels and liver to act

! formally. They never force them to

'unnatural action. i If you have a "dark brown mouth" now and then a bad breath a dull, t tired feeling sick headache -torpid

liver and are constipated, you'll find quick, sure and only pleasant results from one or two little Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets at bedtime. Thousands take one or two every night just to keep right. Try them. 10c and 25c per box. All druggists.

ABOUT TIME. While no one begrudge? any extra wages organized labor can -ret in these tiroes of criminal high price?, it is noteworthy that the Santa Fe, railroad has set aside .$2,750,000 as Christinas boiuues for unorganized eraployes receiving less than $2,500 a year.

It is about, time that, bis: corporations, rpilroatis especially, were paying

more attention to unorganized employes. Organized workers on railroads usually get what they ask for in, way of wages and hours. As for station agents, section bosses and their workers! , clerks, shop foremen and a hos.t of other workers, they have been given" shabby treatment. The Santa Fe management has set a desirable precedent

Mrs. H. P. Whitney the heroic statue and clay model of the figure. . The heroic statue shown in the foreground was designed by Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney and is now in the stone shed of John Horrigan, at West Quincy, Mass., where it was cut out of a single block of granite, weighing twenty-five tons. The height of the figure is thirteen feet and the expansion of the arms is thirteen feet. The statue will shortly be shipped ta Washington, where it will be erected as a "monument to those who lost their lives in the Titanic disaster.

WAR BOOKS. There is no end to the stream of war books, and how. can -there bp, why should there be? If you walk around the offices of the London publishers you will find a war .book on each door-step, ready to appear. String their titles together and you have this list: i "War Wanderings." by George Renwk-k. From the St. Lawrence to the Vser," by Captain F. C. Curry. '.t Suvla Bay," by John Hargrave. '"The Mixed Division," by Ft. W. Campbell, author of "Spud Tamson." , . "The Grand Fleet," Ity H. C. Forraby. "Soldier Songs from Anzac." by Signaller Tom Skeyhill."Across France in War Time" by the Touring Contributor- of the "Daily News." "The Imperial War: Personalities and Issues," by A. M. de fleck. "War-Time Lectures," by Edward V. Arnold. . "Authority, Liberiy and Function in the Light of the War,"' by Ramiro de Maeztu. London Observer. There will be an end of-the war in due time, but there will be no let-up In war literature. The list from the London Observer is only a few books issued within a weekly period in that part of the globe. They are just as prolific hero, the war writers. The Lord only knows the extent of their activities in Germany, France, Austria and Japan. For a century to come there will be novels, histories, technical and political analysis of the great conflict:

This. is not in keeping with the facts: 'Phe cold storage house i practically a modern invention, t There used to be no cold storage houses and no egg speculators, yet the price of eggs were then within reach .of 'all and it must have paid farmers to keep the them. It was possible then to buy eggs from 12 to 20 cents a dozen. In winter the price jumped sometimes to HO cents a dozen. The egg speculator is responsible for the CO-cent egg and he is also responsible' for the ill-smelling thini ofthe restaurant and hotel. In those days eggs were either rotten or they were fresh. If people couldn't get fresh eggs they got along without. They didn't pay 40 to 60 cents a dozen for eggs and find half of them eatable only when the partaker let a clothespin straddle his nose.

STUDYING. EDITORIALS

A Hartford City, Ind., school teacher has advised her' students hi English to study the editorial page, but not to take the small-town papers as models. Py the time this teacher has read as many editorials as we have she will realize that often than she thinks the small town papers' editorials can far outclass the metropolitan papers for clarity, logic, timeliness and beauty. A great many small-town papers have no editorials at all; mores the pity. Some f them have nothing in which there is any thought. But. the average country editor when he writes an editorial has something to say. He has something in his system he wants to get out and he does it in a vigorous, straight-forward fashion, if not always In the most elegant English. Elegance in English cn he acquired, but ibe most elegant English cannot make a first-class editorial. An editorial writer must have something he wants mighty strongly to say and he needs to say it in the most direct fashion. High school' pupils can. read editorials in both country and city papers with " much 'profit. South Bend Tribune.

SOME HE OVERLOOKED. Columbus, O., Dec. 2. There is a man here whose chief joy is In a collection of newspaper titles. Of course, there are plenty of "Couriers." "Journals" and "Heralds" scattered over the country, and there are "Headlights," "Flashlights," "Bees," "Eagles," "Owls," "Mirrors" and ' ".Newsletters." but when it' conies to "Derricks," "Meddlers,"' "Telescopes," "Flags" ami "Sunbeams." the class is 'more limited. In Hot Springs there is published "The Arkansas Thomas Cat." and other titles just 'as unusual ate "The Sledge Hammer," "The "Irrepressible," "The Silent Worker" and "Gall." Frequently it is possible to tell from the title of a newspaper

In the history of women's clothes fur never reached suh heights as it has this season, and the woman who has not a fur set or a set trimmed with fur for near when the mercury drops will be cast out into utter darkness by Madame Mode.

The scarf is distinctly pleasing in, its cut, and if made of i civet or plush may be interlined with wool or cotton wadding, and the melon shape muff may have a similar lining when a muff bed is not used. In moleskin piush this set would be very effective or in hi eh pile velvet if rabbit or
