WHAT IS A BARGAIN? Th Hon. Alice M. Robertson, representative in congress from Oklahoma, made an interesting speech the other day on the tariff. In the course of her discussion of "protection" she made the point that when people buy imported goods usually sold in this country at from 200 to 2.000 per cent profit, at "bargain prices," they were really lessening the wage-earning capacity of American men and women who work. Evidently when people buy so they increase competition with themselves a "bargain may not be a bargain." Another member of congress, becoming somewhat interested in a woman's views of what might not be a bargain, wanted to know what a bargain is. The Hon. Alice "started something" as the discussion of a "bargain" has been taken up by

trade papers. Where it will end makes very little difference to the women, God bless them, for they will continue to "hunt bargains" as long as they can trapes from one store to another. But a real bargain is your full money's worth.

MAKING HUMOR PALATABLE In recent years it has been the practice of vaudeville circuit managers to censor acts so as to eliminate suggestive material, and the variety stage has been elevated in prestige as a result. Free speech is essential in a republic governed by popular suffrage, but on a small scale censorship seems to have been successful in the realm of entertainment. At any rate, with cheers. It was announced a few days ago that prohibition jokes would no longer be repeated in theaters of an important circuit. This was hard on impersonators of tipsy folks, but it brought satisfaction to those patrons who have heard all the jokes on the subject and who, to use a war phrase, are fed up on them. Now the circuit announces that jokes about Hollywood are barred. Some of us who believe we are entitled to hear something new when we pay for a ticket to a vaudeville performance will be inclined to send our thanks for this promise of relief. It is hoped future edicts will spare us from hearing again jokes about mothers-in-law, clergymen, children saying their prayers, undertakers, wives, Irishmen, twins, flappers, and lawyers. It would be too much to expect the elimination of the fellow whose act consists of a harangue in broken English, in which he uses such phrases as the "Contribution of the United Snakes."

It is noticed that, while Kipling says he did not give the interview slurring America, he has not disowned the sentiments attributed to him.

THE VALUE OF TIME. There sits my sister reading a trashy novel by one of th pot-boil-ine experts. She is unquestionably enjoying it. and so I smile in pity for one so heedless of the value of each precious moment in a lifetime, (The telephone rings.) "What's that Joe? You're at Doyle's. Do I want to play a game of three cushion? I'll say 1 do! Beright over." '.Exit hastily. Rus Tarbox.) o o o The Pennsylvania man who discovered a coal mine in his cellar discovered the right thing in the right place. o o o Spring fever ia an ailment that a good many of us have all the year round. o o o The best way t prove the assertion that there are millions of idle men is to trv to hire one to fix your roof or spade your garden. If 1 owned a theatre 1 would hire some loud-mouthed reformer to spend his time advising people to stay away from it. It happened right in the heart of the financial district. They were clerks and they went on the roof of a building to play ball. The primitive instinct of throwing and catching stones was in them. They seemed to enioy it. It was good exercise and the sun was shining bright Meanwhile the financial wheels of the world were turning on and on. They laughed and shouted. What are the financial wheels without red-blooded humanity-- without labor? Food for thought here, but most of us have been thinking too much during these days. Let's just go on and play ball. Men with whiskers will form a league. Sort of a bush league, prob-ably. o o o Suitor shoots girl because shooter did not suit her. o o o o If I owned a theatre would hire some loud-mouthed reformer to spend his time advising reople to stay away from it. o o

Policemen and detectives used to wear gum shoes in order to creep op on criminals silently. How times change. The Police Department now has 100 new tin-lizzies to aid in the crusade against gunmen. The approach of ordinary flivver should warn any gunman at work one mile nway unless, of course, as in some locaiities. the constant noise of the shooting drowns out all other sounds. But it takes a lot of shooting to make a Ford seem noiseless. o o o At least the bituminous coal strike should do away with the smoke nu:sance temporaril' and give as a couple of lungsful of fresh air. o o o A flapper's life was saved, when she stepped on a third rail, by the fact that she wore rubber galoshes.

A man has a lot of trouble CONVTNCING his son that BAKING up dead leaves furnishes NO more toll than football. ANYWAY what is MORE welcome than RETURNING prosperity. NOTHING is easier than BELIEVING that duty calls you WHEN you want the job anyway. COME men treat their WIVES as if they had won them a bridge tournament OR golf match. SPORT Shirt fans WON'T believe it but a MAN'S Adams Apple is the ONLY thing that is as UGLY as a woman's elbow. SOME firms that have business managers HAVEN'T business to manage.

All you need to do is to fill out the coupon below and take it to the store forredemption --- but this week only! A gift from the makers of Listerine Of course you know Listerine, for half a century the acknowledged safe antiseptic. You've probably used it for years. Now the makers of Listerine have perfected for you a really safe dentifrice and they want you to try it at their expense. Two big new advantages In perfecting their dentifrice the makers of Listerine kept in mind two points of major importance. First, they incorporated mild, wholesome fruit acids derived

of apples, grapes, grapefruit and oranges. They avoided soapy ingredients and all alkalines because alkaline ingredients thwart Nature in her effort to fight tooth decay. Fruit acids on the other hand encourage an extra flow of natural saliva which is provided to keep the teeth and gums healthy. The correct cleansing agent Secondly, they avoided dangerous gritty ingredients. Many abrasives will polish off the tartar that accumulates from day to day. But they are so harsh that they attack the tooth enamel. In Listerine Tooth Paste you have a polishing ingredient just hard enough to remove tartar but net hard enough to injure the tooth surfaces. It does the work and does it safely. Watch how it whitens your teeth Get your free tube of this superior new dentifrice and give it a thorough trial. See the difference in its work. Your teeth will gleam white and brighter than they ever have before. And you have the constant satisfaction of knowing your tooth paste .
