What Other Cities Own Almost 2,000 cities in the United States own their gas and electric light plants; eight large cities operate lighting systems ; three have street railway lines; out of 204 cities of more than 30,-

000 population, only forty-nine do not own their

own water systems; of 195 cities, with population in excess of 30,000, no less than 112 own and operate public markets. New York and Boston operate ferries. Eighteen cities maintain public golf link's and twentyotie own public halls. New Orleans, in addition to owning its own water front, maintains a public belt railway. Other activities that have been municipalized are coal mines and coal offices, ice plants, stone quaries, lunch rooms and toll bridges. Richmond owns an electric light plant. In this regard it is in line with general municipal progress, for cities have gone farther in operating light plants than in any field. In the gas business, the private companies are far in the lead. The telephone business is entirely in the hands of private owners.

Will We Be in the Rear Rank ? To the fourth German war loan there were more than five million Teuton subscribers. Britain floated her third war loan and five million persons bought the bonds. The United States is floating its second loan of three billion. Measured by our wealth and population there should be ten million subscribers to this war credit. Approximately $250 must be subscribed by every family in the country to put across the loam The whole state is wondering what Wayne county will do.

Richmond women have tried a number

times to obtain the addition of a police matron or policewoman to the regular police force. Each time they have suffered defeat. ' The conservatism of the - city" seems set against? it. Chief Schuettler has a field where the efficiency and worth of a policewoman is given an excellent test. ' "If all the civic societies of Chicago should ask me to

dispense with these policewomen I wouldn't do it," said, the chief. "I wouldn't do it because it is my duty to do

the best I can for the police department of Chicago, and I consider that these policewomen are doing first class work. , Not a one of them has been before the trial board. The record of what they have done shows in black and white. - It . is a first class record. For obvious reasons that complete record cannot be made public, for it would seriously handicap them in the work they must do in the future. . : "But you may say for me that when civic societies feel like criticizing these policewomen in the future they might have the good judgment to look up the records first, so they, would know what they were talking about." Perhaps the project if revived again will

bring results. A police matron is badly needed.

The women and their organizations who have demanded the innovation have abundant reasons to

adduce for their cause.

Wanted A Man

Copettes Are Invaluable Chief of Police Schuettler of Chicago finds that the twenty-nine copettes on his force are "doing first class work." Even if all the civic societies of Chicago demanded the removal of his policewomen, the chief would oppose it.

Wanted, a man in every state, county, city,

village and hamlet in the coming bewildering re

construction days following the greatest war in history.

Wanted, a man who can keep an appointment and a promise. Wanted, a man with a keen mind, a broad intellect, a cultured soul ; who is bigger than his job; who can think quickly, act promptly, dare the impossible ; who can guide men in the perplexing, hazardous paths of social readjustment. Wanted, a man overflowing with vigor, health, life; who does not violate nature's laws; whose body can stand the strain of concentrated civilization; who can endure months of grind, and wake every day to find his brain clear, ready. Wanted, a man who can mix with men; who can "walk with Kings nor lose the common touch;" who can live with lesser men and be at home; who has broad sympathies with common

folks; who can guide and inspire to juster ideals face, said hoarsely:

and higher living; Wanted, an all-round man, a broad man, who

is educated all over; who prefers worth to mon

ey; who hates sham; who loves the beautiful ;i

wno can maice tne tneoreticai practical ; whose soul is not stunted ; who has a conscience, a heart. Wanted, a good man.

Wanted, in thousands of banks, manuf actor-;

les, attorneys' oltices, political halls, editorial chairs, pulpits, colleges and universities, a man who can see aright, lead aright, and do the big things that dwarfed men cannot touch. Wanted, a man ! Milwaukee Journal.

i A ; Tense

-"You've made a great conquest.

Madge," said ; Dicky, when he had calmed down after the distressing episode from whose danger his opportune entrance had saved me. "Lil

thinks you're about the nicest little

piece of calico she has ever measured

those were her own words. She's planning a frolic for the crowd some night at your convenience." "Why at the studio, of course. -' Her studio is on the same floor as mine, you know. Atwood and Barker and she and I are all on one floor, and we often have a dish of tea together when we are not rushed." I busied myself with the coffee machine until I could control my voice. How I hated these glimpses of the intimate friendship which must exist between my husband and this woman! "I suppose we ought to have them

all over some night." I said at last.

"but 1 11 have to add a few things to our equipment, and wait until I get a maid." "That will be fine," Dicky assented cordially, pushing back his chair. "Did the papers come? I'll look them

over for a little. Whistle when you're ready and I'll wipe the dishes for

ou." He strolled into the living room

and I suddenly remembered that I had laid my letter from Jack on the table, with its pages scattered so that anyone picking them up could not help

seeing them.

I had forgotten all about the letter.

I had meant to show it to Dicky after I had explained about Jack. It was not quite the letter for a bride

groom to find without expectation. I

realized that.

Dicky Finds Jack's Letter I could not get the letter without attracting his attention. I waited, every nerve tense, listening to the sounds in the next room. I heard the rustling of the newspaper; then a sudden silence told me his attention had been arrested by something. Would he read the letter? I did not think so. I knew his sense of honor was too keen for that, but I remembered that the last page with its signature was at the top of the sheets as I laid them down. That was enough to make any loving husband reflect a bit. How would Dicky take it? I wondered. I was soon to know. I heard him crush the paper in his hand, then come quickly to the kitchen. I pretended to be busy with the dishes, but he strode over to me, and clutching me by the shoulders with a grip of

iron and holding the letter before my

- I danced before my eyes, Dicky's hand

was shaking so. 4 -. "Till I . see you, dear. . "Always your Jack." . i-, i ' Dicky's face was not a pleasant

sight It repulsed and disgusted me. Subconsciously I was contrasting the

way In which he calmly expected me

to accept his friendship for Lillian

Gale, and his behavior over this letter. Five minutes earlier I would have

explained to him fully. I resolved

now to put my friendship for Jack upon the came basis as his for Mrs.

Underrcmd. A Comparison Strikes Home

So I looked at him coolly. "Have

you read the letter?" I asked quietly.

"You know I have not read the let

ter," he snarled. "It lay on the papers, I could not help but see this this

whatever it is," he finished lamely.

"and I have come straight to you for

an explanation."

"Better read the letter " I advised

quietly. "I give you full permission

I could have laughed at Dicky, if I had been less angry. He was so like an angry, curious child in his eagerness to know everything about Jack. "You have no brother. Is this man

a relative?" "No," I returned demurely.

"An old lover then, I suppose a con

fident one, I should judge by the tone

of the letter. Won t It be too cruel a blow to him when he Snds his dear

little girl is married?" Dicky's tone fairly dripped with irony. "He will be surprised certainly," I answered, "but as he never was

my lover, I don't think It will be any blow to him." ,

"Who Is he, anyway? Why have you

never told me about him? What does he look like?"

Dicky fairly shot the questions at

me. -I turned and went into my room. There I rummaged in a box of old photographs until I found two fairly good likenesses of Jack. I carried

them to the kitchen and put them In Dicky's hands. He glared at them, then threw them on the table.

"Humph! Looks like a gorilla with

the mumps," he growled. "Who Is this precious party then, if he is not

a lover or a. relative?"

. "He is an old and dear friend. His friendship means a3 much to me as

well say Lillian Gale's means to

you."

, Dicky stared at me a long, long look as if he had just discovered me. Then

he turned on his heel.

"Well, I'll be " I did not nd out

what he would be, for he went into

bis room-and slammed the door.

TO MY SOLDIER, GONE TO WAR O my soldier's gone to war ' He has heard his country's cry ' He has gone to lend a hand To the needy ( O my soldier's gone to war And he's left his love behind That he may give his blood For his country He will hear the cannons roar He will see the red blood pour From the wounds of those who die For their country He will hear the bullets sing He may feel their fatal sting But he gladly gives his life For his country If my soldier fallen lies We will grieve with tear-dimmcd eyes For he's given us his life For his country When from war my soldier comes We will welcome him back home For he's offered us his life For his country.

SALTS IF BACKACHY AND KIDNEYS HURT

Drink lots of water and stop eating meat for a while if your Bladder troubles you.

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eating too much meat, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have headache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and. when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore1; water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. Either consult a good reliable physician at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with Ilthia, and has been used for generations to clea and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids In the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder ' weakness. Jad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters, tl is inexpensive, can not injure and makes a delightful, effervescent llthia-water drink. Adv.

The world owes thanks to the genius In Cincinnati who discovered freezone, the new ether drug.

Tiny bottles of the maglo fluid can now be had at any drug store for a few cents. You simply apply a few drops of this freezone upon a tender, aching corn or a hardened callus. Instantly the soreness disappears and shortly you will find the corn or callus bo loose and shriveled that you lift it off with the fingers. Not a bit of pain or soreness is felt when applying freezone or

afterwards. It doeant even irritate the skin or flesh. j For a few oents one can now get rid of every hard corn, soft corn, or corn between the toes, as well as painful calluses on bottom of feet. Everyone wfto tries freezone becomes an enthusiast because it really doesn't hurt or pain one particle. Genuine freetoae haa a yellow labeL Look for yellow "labfci. Adv.
