men. women and children to lay aside a small

part of their earnings to furnish capital for in

vestments or the purchase of homes. The speed with which the aliens who come to our country lay aside money is an object lesson too many citizens overlook or assign to the low standard of living of these peoples. An investigation of the standard of living of many foreigners who have made Richmond their home, shows that their standard of living is not low in comparison with their income. They save money, not because they are penurious, but because they have been taught thrift and economy, and are

willing to deny themselves pleasures that belong

only to persons who have much larger incomes.

Increase of Wealth per Capita The wealth of the nation as a whole is twenty

five times as great as it was in 1850, while that

of the individual is about six times as great, ac

cording to figures given out by the director of census. This means $1,965 for every man, woman and child in the country. These figures show that the United States is still the land of opportunity and that the individual through thrift, economy, and wise investment of his savings may attain a degree of inde.pendence no other countries offer. It has become the fad in recent years to insist that the days of accumulating a bank account are over and that it is an exceedingly difficult matter nowadays to lay aside money for a rainy day. The real reason why many persons cannot save today in the United States is not because the opportunity is lacking, but because the individual is unwilling to deny himself luxuries and fads that squander money which should have been deposited in the savings bank. The high cost of living usually is a mere excuse covering the sins of profligacy and wastefulness. If the average American exercised one-tenth the thrift of the European, savings accounts in the United States would swell to an enormous figure and the per capita wealth record would show a healthy increase in the next ten years. Banks and savings associations, through advertisements and appeals, are constantly urging

Playgrounds in Glen Miller

Twenty-one playgrounds are to be operated

this year in Indianapolis. Ten public swimming pools and play places are to be open to the people who want to use them. Parks and school yards

are being used at Indianapolis for physical culture. Hundreds of persons in Richmond have been clamoring for the use of part of Glen Miller park for baseball diamonds, tennis courts and roque grounds, but members of the city council are slow about acting. They advance the old time stained argument that playgrounds will damage the park. The park belongs to the people, and if the people want playgrounds there, why should the wish be denied. If Glen Miller park were so small that the presence of a baseball diamond and a few tennis courts would infringe upon the pleasures of picnic parties and pedestrians, there would be some argument against the proposal. The park, however, is of such generous proportions that the public playgrounds would not interfere in the least with the pleasures of persons who do not care to use them. The idea that a park is an art gallery is a dead one. The park managers of all big cities take a broader view than this. They believe in giving the people a chance for recreation if they want it. Let the council speed up and act on the wishes of the public.

HI f

MRS. CHRISTINA PRILL. The Herb Lax-a-Tone man says: Just ask your grandparents, and they have lived to a ripe old age, which goes to show that the herb treatments

of long ago were good. Consult them about the merits of gentain, dandelion, yellow dock, mandrake, senna, cascara and poke root, not forgetting stillingia, and tell them that these are a few of the herbs in Herbal Lax-a-Tone and then abide by their decision. Mrs. Christiana Prill, 1021 Degroff street. Fort Wayne, says: "I have had a bad case of stomach trouble with weak kidneys. I saw Herbal Lax-a-Tone advertised and after using it I must say it has given wonderful relief. I can now eat things that I was unable to touch before taking it, my appetite has improved and I feel better in every way. My brother also has taken it and is well pleased with It."

Anent the Lusitania, -we hear too much jumping at conclusions; whereas if : we will consider we will find England as well as Germany greatly to blame, and we will also take Into account the Cunard liner officials more than the passengers to blame. Germany sank the Gulflight and her raider sunk one of our wheat laden ships without any show of lawful excuse more recently than that ship of donated food and clothing for the Belgians, whom she has declared her subjects; and the United States has a clear right to send arms and ammunitions to one of her enemy who is dealing uprightly with us. And Germany knows she has no room to protest that on the Lusitania or that that any pretense of such is a farce. Then Germany did not properly or honorable warn the proper officials and the prospective passengers, but by mysterious disappearing persons. The passengers deliberately put their faith and lives in and under the care of Enciand. The United States is not responsible. The ship was submarined and sunk right at the doorstep of the boasted mistress of the seas (recognizing the United States as the master of the sea) ; and she is not mistress of her own harbors, and the only nation not that much. Here is where England is as much to blame or more than Germany for cinking that auxiliary cruiser almost at or in harbor (England's boasted wide world harbors are not harbors any more). Anyone that trusts his life any more to England is a fool or a would be suicide, and his folks must look to her for redress. Germany ' catching and sinking a vessel now and then of those going to or from England does not establish a blockade, but if she will announce, or having done so, the same and seize and take prizes of all, then we will recognize her claims. The serious point necessitating a summary demand of our president and secretary is Germanys sinking innocent passenger vessels on the ocean highways. And Germany has repairs to make to the United States now or we go to sinking her submarines. President Wilson, your demand on Germany was right, and every patriotic citizen is with and for you now. No war to be declared, but to blot ont piracy as it were. The United States has at every mast head the flag of peace white with the red cross and gold crown and proves the peace policy. ALVIN M.

An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 30 Lbs. of Solid, Healthy, Permanent Flesh. I Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and ! women everywhere are heard to say, 1 "I can't understand why I do not get fat. I eat plenty of good, nourishing food." The reason is just this: You cannot get fat, no matter how much ' you eat, unless your digests e organs assimilate the fat-making elements of your food instead of passing them out through the body as waste. ; What is needed is a means of gently j urging the assimilative functions of j the stomach and intestines to absorb j the oils and fats and hand them over to the blood, where they may reach ' the starved, shrunken, run-down tissues and build them up.

MISSIONARIES HIT BY JAPANESE RULE I . ... rr-. SEUL, Korea, May 20. It is reported here the Japanese authorities will soon extend a principle of the Japanese public schools that religion must be separated from education to all private schools. This would be a serious blow to the Christian mission schools, which now teach history, geography, English and the Christian religion to their pupils. It Is hard to see how the missionaries could combat the order, however, as it would apply to-Buddhism, Shintoism and any other religion the same as to Christianity.
