England Trying to Gold Brick Us Payments due American manufacturers for munitions of war sold to the allies are falling due in increasingly large amounts. When they signed the contracts, the allied governments agreed to pay the American manufacturers in American dollars. Our business men were wise in so stipulating for today the American dollar is the only currency on earth that has not depreciated in value. The English pound, which heretofore has been the money standard of the world and was worth about $4.86 gold, has depreciated to such an extent that today it is quoted at around $4.66. English currency, like our own, is secured by the gold standard. Like any other gold standard government, however, England has more currency outstanding than she has gold to retire it. Consequently as the Germans continue piling up victory on victory and as the world becomes better acquainted with the' underlying inefficiency of the British Empire, doubt arises as to the inability of the. latter to maintain the value - of - its ettrrency under such conditions and depreciation of that value is the immediate resultant. ; There are three ways in which England can pay her debts to America, the two most satisfactory of which are to send us gold or exchange the American securities of her investors for our products. The third way and the most unsatisfactory one from the American standpoint is for England to establish credit for herself in this country through the sale of her government bonds to our investors. This is what England is
now attempting to do, as her bankers condescendingly state they are going to offer three hundred million dollars of British bonds to United States investors. Proceeds from the sale of this issue are to be used to pay off the American manufacturers of munitions. In other words, England wants to borrow our money with which to pay us. She wishes to give us her promise to pay rather than her gold or her investments in our country. If English currency is depreciating, however, it stands to reason that the same thing is happening to her credit. In fact her credit isn't as good today as her currency. She has a certain proportion of gold with which to back up her currency but her inefficiency in the war as evidenced by the gigantic German victories and her terrific expense for which she is saddling herself with debts mounting up into the billions, raise the spectre of repudiation before the eyes of those who are asked to buy 'additional issues of English bonds. If, as now seems likely, England loses in her great onslaught against Germany, she will have to pay a staggering indemnity as the price of her failure which will make repudiation absolutely certain. Let England pay. us in gold or in our own securities. Let her obtain our securities from her investors by giving' them in exchange British bonds. English investors own many billions of dollars worth of American stocks, bonds and land. One duke, for instance, is credited with owning 40,000 acres in Illinois and Iowa. Let him exchange this land for British bonds and let England put up that land with American bankers as collateral to secure her debts to our manufacturers. - WitH England's war expense running between ten and fifteen billion dollars a Tear, ;our r great New York bankers, many of whose daughters are married to British lords and dukes, should not be allowed to jeopardize the savings of American bank depositors by underwriting English loans, As long as England herself can pay the piper, let her enjoy her tunes of war. When she can no longer pay, however, and if we refuse to be duped into loaning her our resources on her promise to pay, which could never be fulfilled and would have to be repudiated, peace will come and blood will cease flowing.
JAPAN LANDS OLD GERMAN BUSINESS
LONDON, Aug. 19. Particulars have come to hand of a significant development of the export trade of Japan with markets farther afield than she has been able to secure before the war. Thus, a larger beer brewery which was established there by German capital and under German technical supervision, has been taken over by the government, and Is being worked with no little success. It is even 6ald that the Japanese beer Is being Introduced into India as a substitute for the light beers of Teutonic origin which are no longer available. Similarly, India is finding that its own production of Bome mineral materials are being subjected to very effective competition from Japan, notwithstanding the handicap occasioned by the cost of freight and the import duty.

HOSPITAL FOR CONSUMPTIVES
BY DR. D. W. DENNIS. We held a mass meeting of citizens to see what could be done about the scourge called consumption. At this meeting the offer was made to have an. expert come from the United States government and make a sanitary survey of the city; see what our needs are; report them; his service to be free; only his local expenses to be paid; private parties at once put up the money for the expenses; so far, so good ; he came and his report is made; it will be printed as a public document within a few days or weeks at most; he has told us in advance what our first step must be; appropriate a few thousand dollars, $30,000, I believe for a "people's hospital for the cure of consumption." He put this up to the commissioners in a plain, business like statement. The commissioners promised to give this their careful consideration, but it was mentioned that there is a new bridge to be built at a large expense. It was mentioned by Mr. Wilfred Jessup that long time bonds should be issued for the erection and maintenance of the hospital. He said the hospital would benefit posterity more than it would the people of today and therefore future generations should pay the
Talks With Lovers Kitty Carothers Gives Advice to Young Persons and Answers Inquiries About Affairs of Heart.
Hearts are less easily broken than ten years ago. There are few rejected suitors today who pine away their lives. The wound may be deep, but they turn from the past and seek balm for the broken heart in the companionship of others. ' The trend of love affairs is, drifting away from the ideals of novels.: so popular a few years ago." Then , the hero was pictured as having never loved but once, and the heroine fell in love before she knew it. Today
both hero and heroine may go through
several serious love affairs and en
gagemente, find the right man in the
end and "live happily ever afterward.
Neither does the girl fall in love before she is aware of it. She knows
all the time what she is doing, and
often reasons out her course of action
SOAP IS BAD ! FOR THE HAIR !
Soap should be -used very sparingly, if at all, if you want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (which if pure and greaseless), and is better than soap or anything else you can use. '- " ' One or two teaspoonfuls will clease the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair' with water and rub It in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, Huffy and easy to manage.' ' - You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and a few ounces will supply every member of the family for months. Adv.
beforehand, weighing with her best judgment the things in favor of each wooer. Since these things are true, the girl who deliberately leads one admirer on, when she knows she loves another, who may be in some distant city, is not to be excused. . Some time she must announce her decision, which will hurt one of the men. Although the wound will heal more readily than in previous generations, its infliction will
always be a source of regret to the
young woman. FRANKLY TELL HIM.
Dear Miss Carothers I am a little
over 16 years old. The young man
with whom I have been keeping com
pany is three years older. Recently I met another a year younger than he, with whom I fell in love. How shall
I get rid of the first? M. W.
If you are sure that you care more for the younger, frankly tell the other of your change of sentiment. Don't
keep him hoping against odds. Each
day that he continues hoping will make the final break that much harder
for him. Husband is Drifting.
Dear Miss Carothers. I fear that my husband and I are drifting apart.
He has "imoortant engagements" at
town nearly every night. He fs seldom
home of evenings and has lost interest in keeping the premises in good condition. Is this fair to me and our 4-year-old son? What. shall I do? Puzzled Wife. Talk the situation over with your husband at once. Show him that he must be the example for your son and
try to make him feel the responsibility which he has as a husband and father. Do not threaten him or censure him as that makes most men rebellious. At first talk approach the subject by citing impersonal cases. If this fails ask him candidly why he has
lost interest in his home.
greater part. Every one present agreed with this view of the case. It was pointed out that in the first four years after its opening 172 patients had been dismissed as well from our own state tuberculosis hospital at Rockville. ';, . - The hospital would provide first for those in the incipient stages; most of them would be cured or greatly improved and put on the road to final recovery within a few months; and second, advanced cases, all of whom perhaps would die, but they would be so cared for, that they would not become centers of infection and for every one who so died, at least two would be saved from contracting the disease; the people would in less than ten years adopt the hospital as their very one and nothing would need be said for it. The commissioners are heartily for it; let them know that you are today, either in person or letter and we will soon have it.

Contributions on the Early Days of Richmond : Will Appear in This Column Daily. -
GATHERINQ CRANBERRIES. Nath Edwards of ,. Economy, calls attention to an early practice of residents of Richmond. He recently motored to Blackford county where he saw what formerly;' were Immense tracts of cranberry bushes. : He writes in a - communication to the Palladium: "Fifty years ago persons went from Wayne county to gather cranberries and get wild honey In the swampy stretches in the territory north ; of Wayne county. The underbrush was so thick that the early settlers had to cut a trail before they could penetrate it." EARLY GERMAN CHURCHES. One of the old German residents of the city, who has made a study of the coming of the first Germans to Richmond, says the first preachers who visited the Teuton Immigrants same from the western part of Wayne county. Records at St. John's church show that ministers visited here from Cambridge and East Germantown. Itinerant pastors from Cincinnati and the German settlements from Brookville south to Cincinnati .also visited the early Teutonic residents and christened their children. ' Entries in the first church record of St. John's congregation are in the handwriting of these itinerant pastors. PEWS OP PLANKS AND BLOCKS. The first pews in St. John's church, according to the traditions of the congregation, were made of planks laid across blocks. The members were too poor to buy even benches.' The original edifice still . stands . on South Fourth street. As the congregation grew" additions were made to the front, top and rear, so that the present structure, figuratively speaking, has been built around the original building.
EXPECT GOOD PROFIT FROM SKUNK FARM
Here is the latest. -
A skunk farm is located right in Wayne county with prospects of becoming a prosperous business for its
promoters.
It is situated three miles west of Economy and has been started by James Roush and his brother, who live on Frank Thornburg's farm in Dalton township Although the farm is only a
lew weeKB old, Its proprietors have a
stock of twenty of the' furry animals
They have - constructed several cages, ten feet long and three feet
wide in which the "skunks" are fed
Holes have been dug by the animals underground but none have made any
attempt to escape.
The "star" hides which command
the better price, will net about $3 each, according to the Roush brothers. An expert "skunk" raiser has been consulted and has given the proprietors of the farm the latest information on the care of the animals. Corn and milk Is the chief food given them and they all seem to be healthy and enjoying life. The first hides will be put on the market this fall.
