The Chase' Painting. , The Richmond Art association is trying to raise $250 to pay its share of $500 for a painting of himself made by William M. Chase of New York, one of the foremost American artists. The other $250 of the purchase price has been donated by Mr. Warner Leeds. Every citizen owes it to his city, to attend the lecture which Mrs. M. F. Johnston will give on March 6 to help raise funds for the purchase of the picture. The painting is conservatively valued at $5,000 by art critics, and the opportunity of obtaining it for Richmond for the sum of $250, owing to the generosity of the artist and of Mr. Warner Leeds-ought be seized. The addition of the Chase portrait will enhance the value of the collection housed at the high school.

Our Secret Diplomacy. j Last week Senator Townsend declared on the I floor of the senate that for the first time in its history the United States has a president who refuses to confer with members of the senate or with members of the senate committee on foreign relations upon questions of vital importance to the country. This is a grave charge, but it is borne out by much evidence, the most "striking of which was Senator Stone's letter.

The situation is a remarkable one for a demo

cratic republic. At the outset of the war we in

. dulged in a good deal of excited criticism of for

eign governments, on the ground of secret diplomacy and one man power, but as we are beginning to be aware we ourselves are not protected from them. In England, the foreign minister has constantly to consult with the cabinet and no prime minister acts on any important matter without conference and agreement. This is the British system and the most masterful leader could not depart from it without being brought to book at once. Our cabinets are appointed by the president and are likely to be, or may be made, subservient to him. The British cabinet is made up of party leaders and is a part of the legislative branch as well as executive. Our president, if he wills, as Mr. , Wilson seems to will, to isolate himself, may do so while carrying on negotiations which may commit the , nation even to war. The check which the constitution places upon him by providing that congress shall declare war and join in treaties is of little value if the executive does not interpret it as conveying the implication of consultation. A president by acting without regard for this wise

principle may keep the congress in ignorance of the course of events and of his intentions up to a point where congress must adopt his will and fulfill it. ' The necessity of secrecy in diplomatic negotiations is unquestioned. We cannot argue such matters out as if we were a town meeting. But no president should be permitted to act as if he were an. absolute monarch, and if holders of this office cannot be relied upon to act in the spirit of the constitution and io. recognize the duty of sharing their responsibilities in this field with the duly constituted representatives of the coordinate branch, which the constitution has indued with the authority to make treaties and declare war, then such co-operation should ! be pro vided for explicitly in the constitution. - As The Tribune said at another of our recent crises, the senate committee on foreign relations should remain in consultation with the executive at all times of stress, whether congress is in session or not. And at no time should one man, even the chief executive, be left -alone to shape, our fate. Chicago Tribune.

Living Within Our Means. Hundreds of families whose providers have a limited wage capacity have acquired homes in this city, put money in the savings bank, retired in old age, and died leaving a small estate. How did .they do it on their small wages? The answer is simple. They lived well within their incomes. Instead of living tip every cent, and indulging in luxuries far beyond their incomes and standing in life, they curbed their desires and were contented to be satisfied with what providence gave them. S." W. Strauss, president of the American Society for Thrift, speaking before the National Educational association last week, uttered a fundamental truth when he said that the man who cannot save a little on a. small income will not save much on a big income.- - . Most persons put off saying until ' they are making "big money." They forget that this goal may be many years off, and that , in the meantime the few hundred dollars saved and judiciously invested may be the cornerstone on which a future fortune may be erected. . The reason so few persons save is because they are unwilling to deny themselves passing pleasures or because they want to imitate acquaintances and friends who easily can afford the luxuries they indulge in. It's . no disgrace not to be able to have an automobile and not to attend very expensive theatrical performances. Neither is it a sign of failure if you cannot buy everything your neighbor can afford to procure. It is a disgrace however, to buy an automobile 'and to go to every theatrical performance when you cannot afford it. This stamps you either as a profligate or as a hypocrite, for y'ou are trying to make the community believe you can afford luxuries to which you are not en

titled. . The only drawback to this kind of hypocricy is that you ultimately will be found out. You cannot play the ame and get away with it. Some day you will be confronted by the futility of your foolish practice.

PARIS PAPER ATTACKS MILITARY SHIRKERS

GENEVA, Feb. 29 The Paris paper "L'Oeuvre," which during the last six months has been repeatedly suppressed for its attacks on the French gov

ernment and high personages, has a

new sensation. It now charges M. Dal-

biez, a leader of the Chamber of Deputies, with aiding influential "shirkers" who have succeeded in freeing themselves from military service and are enjoying themselves at home. The paper supports its "charge with the publication of a number of documents, but M. Dalbiez insists that he has been libelled and demands the criminal prosecution of the editor and proprietor of the sheet. The attack upon the deputy has caused heated discussion in political circles and among the public, as he is the author of the new law to stop the favoritism which permitted many able bodied men who enjoy large wealth or political "pull" to escape conscription, or to get soft berths, far away from any danger.

Every Citizen is Asked

To Help Purchase Chase

Portrait For Gallery

A program of appropriate addresses and music will mark the reception to be held here under the auspices of the Richmond Art association about the middle of April when the self-portrait of Mr. William M. Chase of New York, one or the foremost painters of the United States, becomes the permanent exhibit in the association's collection. Mr. Chase will be here on that occasion and Mr. Warner Leeds who is del ray lug half the cost of the portrait while the association meets the other half, will also attend the reception.

The portrait which was completed the last of the recent summer is the largest Mr. Chase has ever painted

and Is singularly and extraordinarily

meritorious, artistically. It has aroused the favorable comment and attention among New York painters

and is now on exhibit in that city Phlladelphian art conniseurs have al ro sought to have it exhibited there.

The picture when hung in the public art gallery will be the largest of

that exhibit.

Mrs. M. F. Johnston has recently returned from New York where she

viewed the picture in company with Mr. Warner Leeds. Mrs. Johnston in describing it, said the portrait is a three-quarters length of Mr. Chase Vhowlng the artist wearing his painting jacket, standing before a canvas with pallet and brushes in hand. In the background is shown a tall chest of drawers, on which is mounted a large blue vase. It is higher in key than most of the paintings by Mr. Chase and is unusually strong and vigorous in color. The rays of n sun cast a featuring light on the portrait. Mrs. Johnston estimates that the canvas is conservatively worth $5,000 and high prices have been offered the artist. These he declined with the statement that he had promised it to Richmond and would not part with it for that reason. Mr. Chase, who is noted as a stilllife artist and was born in Franklin, i lnd., entered into an agreement with,

years ago. During that' period he. has occasionally communicated with Mrs. Johnston expressing his determination to paint 'something handsome" for the association in keeping his promise. The New York artist is one of the very few American artists the portraits of whose heads are hung in the gallery in Florence, Italy. The cost of the Chase portrait to the Richmond association is f 250 and as one means of raising this amount Mrs. Johnston has consented to deliver a lecture at the auditorium of the high school on the recent PanamaPacific Exposition held in San Francisco. Mrs. Johnston was senior docent of the art exhibit. The lecture will be interspersed with beautiful and highly colored stereopticon views of the fair. The scenes will include architectural sculptural, landscape gardening views and some of the reproductions of the

works in the art gallery. Mrs. Johnston is donating her services on this

occasion which will be held on Mon

day night, March 6. About sixty

slides in all will be shown.

Tickets for this event, which will sell for twenty-five cents each, are in the hands of the members of the Art Study club. It is expected that hun

dreds of people will hear the lecture.

At Movies Tonight

LYRIC. "Dolly's Scoop" at the Lyric tonight, is a newspaper story of the triumph of decent methods over those of yellow journalism. The cruelty of the Paul Pry, whose unscrupulous spying so often injures the 'innocent instead of the guilty, is exposed in a very interesting way. The drama, which is in two reels, serves as an excellent vehicle for the strong cast, headed by Louise Lovely the charmingly pretty little actress, who has at last succeeded in finding a "screen name" which suits her.

LONDON, Feb. 29. A great wave of ethical reform is just now sweeping over this country. It is the old, old story of "when the Devil is sick" over again. Among others, Oswald Stoll, the well known music hall impressario, has caught the fever with the result that he has decided to expend half a million dollars to cleanse the Augean stables of the music halls tinder his control of their lounges and promenades, where the fair but frail congregate nightly in their thousands.

How Thin People Can Put On Flesh

Thin men and women that big, hearty, filling dinner you at last night. What became of all the fat-producing nourishment it contained? You haven't gained in weight one ounce. That food passed from your body like unburned coal through an open grate. The material was there, but your flood doesn't work and stick, and the plain trutl. is you harly get enough nourishment from your meals to pay for the cost of cooking. This is. true of thin folks the world over. Your nutritive organs, your functions of assimilation, are probably sadly out of gear and need reconstruction. Cut out the foolish foods and funny sawdust diets. Cut out everything but the meals you are eating and eat with every one of those a single Sargol tablet. In two weeks note the difference. Let the scales be the judge. Five to eight good solid pounds of healthy, "stay-there" fat may be the net result. Sargol aims to charge weak, stagnant

blood with millions of fresh new red blood corpuscles to give the blood the

True Secret of Keeping Youthful Looking

(The Beauty Seeker.) 1 "The real secret of keeping young-looking and beautiful," says a well-known byeienist, "is to keep the liver and bowels normally active. Without these requisites, poisonous waste products remain in the system, polluting the blood and lodging in various organs, tissues, joints. One becomes flabby, obese, nervous, mentally sluggish, dull-eyed, wrinkled and sallow of face. "But to get liver and bowels working as they ought, without producing evil after-effects has been the problem. Fortunately, there is a prescription of unquestioned merit, which, may now be had in convenient tablet form. Its value is due largely to an ingredient de rived from the humble May apple, or its root, which has been called 'vegetable calomel' because of its effectiveness though, of course, it is not to be classed with the real calomel of mercurial origin. - There is no habit-forming constituent in 'sentanel' tablets that's the name and their use is not followed by weakness or exhaustion. On the contrary, these harmless vegetable tablets tend to impart cone and elasticity to the relaxed intestinal wall. Sentanel tablets, which may be procured from any druggist a dime's worth will do will prove a revelation to any constipated, livertroubled person.'!

Constipation - clogged bowels cause pain and sickness; 95 per cent of our ills, say the authorities. Sentanel Laxatives bring quick relief. All vegetable contain no calomel.
