tain the confident hope that substantial relief will result and result in increasing measure. " A general increase in the levels of wapes would check and mlprht defeat all this at its very besrinntne Such increases would inevitably raie, not lower the ot of living Manufacturers and producers of every sort would have innumerable additional pretexts for increasing profits and all efforts to disc er and defeat profiteering would be hopelessly confused. I believe that the present efforts to reduce the cc-fts of livincr will be successful, if r new elements of difficulty are thrown in the way; and I confidently count upon the men enframed in the service of the railways to assist, not obstruct. It is much more in their interest to do this than to insist upon wape increase which will undo everything th trovernment attempts. They are irooil Americans, alone with the rest of us. and may, I am sure be counted j"n to see the point. "It pops without savin that if our efforts to brine: the cost of livitisr down should fall, after we have had time enough to establish either success or failure, it will of course, be necessary to accept the higher coits of Ilvinpr as a permanent basis of adjustment, and railway wajes should be readjusted alor.K with the rest.

Maintenance of normal acreage of fall wheat ar d re in the middle wejt on lands adapted to tho-e crops Is considered sound policy. It is important to restore meadows and pastures broken up duur.? the war emergency and to re-ctablih crop rotation to prevent depletion of ftoii fertility aru to afford a sound basis for maintaining live stock iroductlon. Sug
gest to farmers the advisability of maintaining their production of cereals, forage crops and live stock on a basis of their accumulated experience with these, avoiding speculative plunging in unbalanced production which involves undue climatic and price hazard.

TARIS. Aug. 2 The strucg'ie be.' iween Parisian landlords, who rkto double or treble the income from their properties, and tenants, who, nro unable to find vacant apart-! ments at any reasonable price, has reached a deadlock. House owners refuse to extendi leases or to advertise for rent apartments that have been vacated. Tenants, unable to find new uuar-'
Iters, refuse to move at the behest (of the -landlords, while the courts
have erased to entertain applications for writs of expulsion, there not being enough process servers to handle I
those already issued.
urty - tr.ousand notices to
were served 911 tenants for
J of the second quarter of this year.
tuch notices were received by all the tenants of some apartment houses, showing how generally landlords have sought to increase rents. The extent. of the movement has provoked the passage by the chamber of deputies of a bill t Mending for two years all verbal leases, made since the beginning of the -ar. Leases made prior to the war already were protected by decrees and previous legislation.

In the realm of fashion, sports skirts hold a prominent position. This season's models bid fair to become wonderfully popular, for they are unusually smart. In general they are plain in character, with shirring to provide fullness, and pockets which are in some cises so modest that their presence is almost unnoticed, while other pockets are trimmed with a small strap of self material. Other interesting touches here and there all combine to make these fall sports skirts exceptionally fascinating to all admirers of really smart apparel. Sports skirts have a splendid representation in our displays, lots of plaids and though of excellent quality fabrics, they are very moderately priced. For instance, there are special values at $25.00, $19.75, $15.00, $8.95, $6.95.
