SOCT DRINK MEN, WITH HUGE LINES, ' DELUGE RETAILERS
Next year Is expected to be easy pickln'a for the soft drink makers. They're figuring on the prospects that yay. With all America dry and Cuba a long way otf,'they hiiT a monopoly, and they- know it. and they are making proTlslon for twice as great a trade In soft drinks as has ever been possible before. . There is eridence of this to be seen In - many ways. In the first place, wholesale houses are receiving calls from a constant string; of soft drink salesmen. They want to sell in larger amounts than ever before and have a greater . variety of drinks. Every day a new drink Is born. Every day a new concotlaa is peddled. Where they seem to have merit they will be backed up by a strong advirtislng campaign, wholesalers are putting In conservative orders. In most of the caseB It ' seems the part of - wisdom to wait and see what the demand wiU be. , Stand-bys Sell Well. On the old stand-bys, however, the wholesale ' houses . feel safe in contracting for large amounts. There are certain well known drinks that have lasted longer than a single season, certain fake wines and near beers that help a little to remind the consumer of old times. These are being bought in larger quantities. The others are largely speculative. "They are made up largely of combinations of standard flavors with a little acid, Juice and carbonated water. Some of the Influx of new drinks Is due to the new lines of goods put out by breweries and wineries. A salesman presented a new wine made in an eastern winery. Instead of fermentation and malt, it was' made of the Juice of grapes in combination with carbonated water. Peoria's great distilleries have become the center for the extensive manufacture of a saccharine substance technically known as "levol" which is sold all over the country in the place of sugar in the baking of bread and pastry. The brewers take the starch of grain as the basis of its manufacture, instead of the starch of corn as is the case in glucose.Poker Players, Come On, 'Fess Up to Uncle Sam Uncle Sam wants to know how much you won at poker, last year. "None of his business," you say? There's where you're mistaken! Taxable income for the year 1919 includes amounts gained in gambling. Profits made In violation of laws and regulations are none the less taxable. So it's up to you "pennyante" boys whose poker accounts are on the right side of the ledger to come across. "What about the losers? Well, that's different. Illegal losses are not deductible.

She Married an Average Man
BY ZOB BECKLBY
It seemed a strange thing that when we lived in New York, supposed to be a regular modern Babylon containing scarcely such a thing as a faithful
husband, no Jealousies ever tormented"
me Evgn that wretched episode with Fanny Frisbie brought out only my pity. But here In a quiet rural vilage the dread thing has seized upon me. - Perhaps I have talked too much with Agatha Pardoe. Agatha is a matrimonial cynic. She seems to delight in throwing out hints and warnings of danger. I certainly should not be tormenting myself about little Rose Green If Mrs. Pardoe had not described her naughtiness to me. I have fought against my imaginings but I can't help worrying now if Jim is late coming from the works. Tonight I was more nervous than usual. "Jim," I ventured, unable to battle up my anxiety any longer,' "are men ever perfectly faithful to their wives? I mean does any man ever keep on loving her after tley have been married two or three years, in the way he did before." "Why, you unutterably ridiculous person, what's struck you now!" laughed Jim, drawing me to him and forcing me to look squarely into his eyes. "Not in the way he did before, perhaps, but in a far better way. A more responsible way. Especially If she loses her mind and goes back to babyhood!" "Don't tease me; answer me!" I begged. "I am answering you. But you
don't expect me to make a serious

LANSING INCIDENT
(Continued from Page One) in seven years. But their frame of mind on the Lansing episode was one of helplessness and bewilderment. Their attitude was analogous to that of the hero-worshipping fans -who have admired all season long the brilliant playing of a fielder only to see him throw the telling game in the world's series by dropping the ball in the ninth inning with three men on base. They have memories of brilliant past performance and their chagrin is mingled with disappointment of the keenest sort. Pity Is Predomlnent. It is curious indeed that much of the feeling is that of pity. People wonder why the president wasn't stopped by someone in the Inner circle from passing out the Lansing letter. People suspect even that the president's outburst on the Flume question is pique aud temper. I find here in Washington a little echo of that. Foreign diplomats say that the effect of the dismissal of Lansing was to create an Impression in Europe that tho president was suffering from the tedium of a long illness and now they believe his threat to withdraw the treaty is part and parcel of the circumstances surrounding his illness. It

You mustn't get these silly notions
Into your mind, dear. It's like we kids used to say when we made mouths at each other: 'Look out; your face might freeze that way!' I'd hate such ideas as you 6eem to have lately to freeze into your mind, Pussykin." I pulled away, feeling I was bclaving childishly, but too bothered by my brooding thoughts to care. "Then hurry Miss Green off to New York where she wants to go. Get her a position there, Jim. Don't have her, messing about any longer" flirting and challenging and and " There was an ominous silence as I paused, uncertain low to put my meaning. I could actually feel the atmosphere become charged with coldness and resentment "You mustn't say that." Jim's voice had the tone one uses to a kid-
counting American action because of the indisposition of the president, real or imaginary. But out In the country, away from Washington, there really isn't much interest in the Flume question. It is a little too involved and intricate for the average man to understand without study, and he is far too busy attending to bis domestic troubles to read up on the quarrel with the Jugoslavs. Average Man Interested. The expulsion of Lansing from the cabinet 13 something he can understand. He never knew much about Lansing. If one wants to discover how important a cabinet Job is as a gule, let hfm ask somebody outside of Washington to give the names of half the members of the cabinet of this or
any other president. It wasn't sym
pathy for Lansing or even a passing
the war emergency, and' they still expect government officials to go ahead when there Is no specific provision of law and do the best thing for the country. They seem to think it was right to call cabinet meetings. That's why It Is no exaggeration to say Mr. 'Wilson hurt himself Immeasurably with the people of the country and damaged to an extent yet not calculablo his leadership in the Democratic party. Instead . of ; being the greatest asset for the campaign, Mr. Wllsonv Is at present writing a large liability to the Democrats.

I realized I had made the fatal mistake of arousing his sympathy for
differences of opinion with his superior
officer that occasioned the outburst on the part of the average man. It was merely that his credulity was taxed by the first sentence in Mr. Wilson's letter which asked "Is it

Although his life has been a strenuous one, Captain Joseph Smith, of 2110 East Main street, known throughout the .city as "Cap Smith", was on his 2nd birthday, Thursday, "none the worse for wear", to use his words. Mr. Smith is one of the best known older citizens of th9 community, and although he is not in perfect health be "gets around" and wanted to go to the front in the late war, as he did in 1861, had the examination board not stood in the way.
