ALL THAT CAN BE DONE. There is 6o much to criticise and denounce; so much to tear into tatters and hurl conteniptously into the back alley, so much of grabbing and selfishness, so much of false religion, false education, false politics, eo much of envy, vanity and sunshine, so much ignorance and contempt cf wisdom, so much of conditioned

moral purpose, so much patriotism that pays in dollars and cents, so much discourtesy and trying to get ahead of somebody, so much noise that hurts as if beaten with a club, so much auto snorting and get-out-of-the-way, damn ycu; so much lottery method to raise money, so invisible is becoming the line between good and bad, between honesty and deceit that every day gcod people feel like surrendering the guardianship of the public good, and for peace of mind relapsing into the sordid ways of life, where the brother's keeper business has sold out and gone to selling peanuts and sausages to the starving humanity. And yet, one must expect every good impulse to be promptly met by a low-down motive, and so all cne can do is to strike his blow, and then look for hope among the stars, remembering that every victory for right, goodness wins. So we must not get angry if things don't come cur way, nor should we exhaust ourself too much in trying to make them come.

HOUSE SHORTAGE QUIZ. The western housing shortage will be thoroughly Inquired into before December 2. The senate sub-committee in charge cf this matter, headed by Senator Calder of New York, has already held hearings in some of the eastern cities and before the opening of the session of congress will hold hearings in Chicago and other western centers. Senator Calder has just visited Senator Harding at aricn and told him of the work being done to inquire into housing shortage. Senator Harding is much Interested in the inquiry and has asked that the subcommittee visit Chicago, Cleveland, Cincinnati, St. Louis and other western centers. The housing shortage In a number of these centers is serious.

hard put to meet the demand. And this is but one phase of the oil business that la perplexing tbotttt who look to that futurv. The extent to which oil is being used as the fuel on ocean steamers demands that new Clds shall be revealed in

i far greater volume than has been the case In the past.

Because it is proposed to have oil in large measure supplant coal in the steamer lines is due the activity of governments in securing control of possible oil producing territory. There are but two means of meeting the increased demand: Tapping new pools or resorting to the extraction of oil from oil-bearing shales. The first of these methods is the more appealing for it possesses the attraction that has always been the driving principle in the search for oil the promise of great gain If oae "hits it." Its speculative feature is the lodestone that has drawn so many to invest in prospective oil development, a course that has enriched some and meant Hess for others, llut we must produce more oil, or some gigantic enterprises become a loss. Promise of a substitute for gasoline, often held out as a hope, is not bright because cf the enormous quantity that would be required and the price at which it could be produced. In case the drill does not develop new fields of sufficient magnitude it may be necessary to resort to the more prosy and less suddenly enriching process of producing oil from shales. The United States geological survey estimates that a few mountain states in the west contain enough shales to produce ten times the amiunt of oil that the United Staes ever has produced or can produce. Therein lies hope when other resources fail, though to get that oil would involve a less rcmantic process than drilling a hole in the ground from which it Is hoped great riches will suddently flow. However, because it involves establishing a vast new industry that involves mining as well as the process of extracting the oil from the shale, it is net probable that oil from such a source will become much of a factor in the market until the situation as regards supply makes it absolutely necessary. Investors will prefer to spend their money trying for something that offers greater and quicker profits. But it is reassuring to be told that there is a source of supply of fuel for the automobile and grease to keep it running smoothly even should the oil cease to flow from the earth in sufficient quantities to meet the demand of the many industries that are dependent cn it.

EVERY LITTLE HELPS. The skies are brightening and the drift of prices is downward, says the Los Angeles Times. We are now informed that it is possible to buy a slide trombone for $25. One should be able to strike a cheery note with a thing like that. A trombone may not be one of the necessaries of life, but even a child watching a trimbone performer at his fascinating wcrk would be satisfied that it was filling a long felt want. It seems that a trombone can enter into the human face farther than anything possibly could save a pickax. A trombone comes nearer being physical nourishment than any other musical instrument known to man. At least that is the way i will strike the careless observer and It is easy to see where the bony part

comes from. But with trombones gcing at ?25 per

each our beloved country is once more reasonably safe. It is a great improvement when people turn from the bazoo and take to practicing on the trombone. A man who has played with the plunger on a bicycle pump ought to be able to work one fine.

OUR FUTURE OIL SUPPLY. Th inerea of ronviTiptlin cf sranotloe from 15,000,000 barrels In 1910 to 94,000,000 barels In 1919 is the measure of the growth in the use of the automobile. It is possible that we are approaching the point of saturation as far as the plea3ure car is concerned, but we, prcbably, are but on the threshold of the use of trucks and tractors. It -In not astonishing, therefore, that there should be concern about the source of fuel to drive the vast number of internal combustion engine that will be turned out in the next few years. Were there no increase in the number cf gasoline driven vehicles our present sources of fupply of fuel would be

WHO PRESCRIBES FOR DRUGGISTS t Physicians generally should regard as a high compliment to their profession and their individual sense of toner the new order from the internal revenue bureau forbidding a physician to prescribe liquor for his own us In case of Illness, and Instructing druggi.t not to fill such prescription. The physician needing or believing that he needs liquor fc r medicinal purposes must go to another physician to obtain a prescription, and all druggists are warned not to fill such prescriptions if they believe the liquor is prescribed for other than legitimate medical reasons. Thus the druggist is

summoned to sit in Judgment on th? henor and integrity of the medical profession, and all doctors are placed under suspicion as potential criminals, not to be trusted In the practice of their profession. Springfield Unicn.

WORRY AND WRINKLES

Despondency is a thing of evil results. Worry produces nothing but wrinkles and wretchedness. Let the reader put a note on her bureau, on her desk, and at the head of her bed, just two

words, "Don,t Worry"

Worry is the greatest foe to the happiness of any household. An anxious, despondent face, a fretful, complaining voice, will make every one uncomfortable.

A woman's nerves are more truly the cause of worry than outside troubles. The nerves are to a woman's body the telegraph S3'stem which surely warns her of any trouble in the feminine make-up. Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the ideal woman's tonic for such conditions. When a woman complains of backache, dizziness or pain when everything looks black before her eyes a dragging feeling, or bearing-down, with nervousness, she should turn to this '"temperance" herbal tonic, known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It can be obtained in almost every drug store in the land and the ingredients are printed in plain English oa the wrapper. Put up in tablets or liquid. Dr. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel. Buffalo.N .Y., will send a trial size of "Favorite Prescription" tablets for 10c. Also write Dr. Pierce for confidential advice and .you will revive the medical attention of a ppecialist, wholly without fee no charge whatever.
