A HOUSEHOLD HINT. Spring hou.sock anlnp flay arc aain upon us, but not the oM kinl. L'p-to-datf methods havo chanel hou.clf anir. from a 7ainful fry of ronfusion and ovf r-fatlup to a cheerful frrshonin? up ff indoors as nature frffchms tho la ndsrapp. flfttinpr rid of thf winter's accumulation of odds and f-nds whose u.-i fulri-s hs imssrd is really one ff the Important phases of houvoel-anin. It is also fn of the more diflirult inidertakinprs, bf-rausf f)f a human i-nd'nry to f lln to anything and everything that has t ver come into one's possfsion. William Morris once ap a golden rule of household f omfort ar.'i beauty which is particularly worth recalling at this sea:-in of the year. "If we want art to bf-in at home, as it must, we must clear our houses of troubltsom superfluities that are forever in our way; conventional comforts that are no real comforts . If you want a K''d n rule that will tit everybody, this i It: "Have nothing ja your houses that u do not know t be useful or believe to be beautiful." If this rule is strictly followed, a lot of stuff to which we believe we have a sentimental attachment will he calmly thrown out or destroyed. When it is i t ally srone we may b surprised t lind not only 'a trreat load off' our minds, hut a lot of work wiped off the Bcbedule. There will come at the same time the quiet simrliclty ami real chirm in hou.-ohold decoration which cro far toward making the home a place of pod tate. comfort and happiness, a.s 't hful be.

MORE SPEED FOR THE HIRED MAN. The hired man has been corning in for a littl" ervcd attention of late, and it is only fair thaf he should do so. He is the original victim of overtime. If he were paid for hi.- overtime in anything like the proportion that his fellow-laborer in town is paid, he would not be so likely to have the farm and iro to the city. If his overtime were cut down, the same result tniulit be obtained. Hut when it tomes rUht down to hrass tacks, a ;rood deal of the hired man's overtime, and of th" tanner's, too, tor that matter, is his own fault. He ucts up before the dawn because he has so much work to tl, and then he takes all day to do the work because he has so much time before him. The farm hand h walks swiftly, who speaks crisply who voices his i b a ami carri"ü it out with the sam promptness as tloes the city man in his otike, is tli iuhth wonder of the world. What the hired man needs more than shorter hours or pay for overtime is to learn to work swiftly. This i'.ocs not mean an i tisane hurry that no man could sustain and lie. but it does mean th'? same sort of activity which is demanded in the uf-to-date factory. wh re rest periods and health conseration ate considered a men- matter of business. Probably the hirrd man is overworked and underpaid i" many mstancs, but also in many instances his bun,' hours ate due to tin4 fact that he takes two where one would be noimh.

IS IT A -RiFF" OR A "BLUFFr Exactly how much of Sen. Borah's bi-r noise anent the campaign expenditures of Maj. (Jen. Leonard A. Woo-j m his canvass for the presidential nomination, has a sens.- of sincerity back of :t. we an perhaps nc.-t tell when the "mists havv? Irarc.l away." Likewise the Idahoan's thrusts at (low Lfiwd.cn in similar vtin. and ditto, his discreet filir.ee with reference to Hi. Johnson and especially Sen. Hardin-.:. There is little question about et ra asances lu it.L: indulged by Hen. Wood and (lov. Low den, but Sen. Harding belongs in the s uae class, and Johnson wou'.d belorc there if lie could. Te be frank about it. we anticipate that Son. Horah. pretendin-; sponsorship fc r tl.e r.ilife)rnian's caniidacy, is "chew le.c the rat:" about the campaign expenditures of his oppon ents, now as an aftermath of the Newberry conviction in Michican, not beause he expects to stop these expenditures, or because he would want them stopped, once the m-m-imitions are made, but because he is a demagogue, !onc: on pretending s'iprior irtue. and wants to afford the candidates an epportunitv for adanc whitewash a warning to cover up their tracks before the like of the Newl-rry pnbe overtakes them. Thosf whom the senator h..s accused, .-ay thev are ready to lay their eards ri:;ht there oil the table and let it be seen exactly what their money ih beir.R spent lor; not eorruptly. een though lav:h!y. The y (b not seem disposed to deny rcisnuia I wastefulness. ('n. Wool, for instance1, may have in mind in such connection, yom letters be in.is sent out from his IndiHuapohs b.e adquarters to the women cf the state, endo;:-. them 5.0s: cards to di-mbute. und handint: them a lot e.f stive on ta- as.-un.ptle"! cf course that, even ;h"Uv;h -b. f.oi rats, they cannot he for anyone else but Wood; mdc d. quite ::. su'.tin to the feminine mteihent e n of 1 epublicans. We cannot, say. of a rtainty, that s ich erre-s-por.denec i- all w a-:-. M.ib tne women are just th Wlüd of "'itliei " t-v.a.t h Ictle.r- are calculate !

to appeal to. but we doubt it, at least, as applied to our acquaintances. Perhaps the womn (Jen. Wood knows, and those known by hi Indiana nunara, are of that caliber, in which case, to be sure-, the trend of the mee-aes is excusable. but this i- only incidental. Our rr-jess is that the willingness ff Mfsrs. Wood. louden, and the r?t, to lay thir card", on th'A table for Sen. I'orah's inspection, mean that they will lay on the table only thos cards which they want him to inspect and when he ha- iinihod he will know just about as much as he did before he started. Sen. Newberry too was ready to have a full in-ve-tiKation of his campaign for the Michigan senctorship and he finally Rot it. but it wasn't the kind of investigation that h? had in mind, and we doubt if it wi! the kind of investigation Sen. IJorah has in mind. Sen. Horah Is merely making a splurge that will afford the rerviblican candidates opportunity to lay something on the table, pay that is a'.I there is to it. and in consequence et a whitewashing which It h hoped will be able to withstand further criticism? of the campaiKn expenditures that every republican leader has in mind for the fall program. It isn't a "biff," but a "bluff." Newberry laid his case before the senate committee on privileges an I elections too such portions of his case as he wanted the committee tf) see, and they gave him Iiis seat, regardless of the truth of the case laid before the committee from other sources; truth since confirmed by a disinterested jury. Would that we could see sincerity in Sen. Borah's challenge, but he knows as well as we do how much of the unsaverv truth he is point? to pet in a free submission to his proposed investigation, and he knows that his committee would deliberately smother anything unsavory, even if they were to find it; that is. anything unsavory .against the republicans but of course, it would be elifferei.e if there were anything against elemocrats. The money being spent by the democrats, ti which he refers, probably, consists of the cost ef those telegram that Marshall and MoAdoo have been sending out asking that their names he kept off from preferential rrimary ballots asserting from their "backward-looking" preference for the old machine "gagged" conventions; this instead of expressing a willingness to leave the nominations, far as possible, to the popular choice.

PROHIBITION IN CHICAGO. If one may judge from in announcement made by the state prohibition director of Illinois, that state is not taking prohibition very hard, and Chicago particularly is far from alcoholic drouth. That city is granted a whisky allowance of :.2.000 pints ;-. day. Such "legitimate" distribution is made through druggists, presumably on physicians' prescriptions. There are 1,200 drug stores in the city, and tome of them are filling as many as 500 liquor present tions a day. Kach druggist Is allowed to dispense 100 gallons of whisky, wine or gin every month. Saloonkeepers used to reckon about 1 e't drinks of whisky to a quirt bottle. On that basis, Chicago's whisky allowance should make about 2-" 0,000 drinks a day. Along with this some account should be taken of all the illicit trallic. The local prohibition officer says the re are a. 000 moonshine stills in Chi-e-ago. though why there should be so many when all those lrug stores are operating Is not at uM clear. Certainly there is no evident reason why any thirsty Chicagoan should suffer unduly for lack of Iiis accustome-d bracer. "Judge not that ye be not judged" is a pretty good rule in this as in other matters. Still, to most American communities, this looks like a rather eiueer type of "prohibition."

I'ar be it from anybody to invite; calamity but what this country needs now more than anything else Is a little dose of hard times. If it came quickly, and the public learned the lesson prom; tly, it would save a big calamity later on.

The aerage candidate for otfice thinks he's perfectly qualified for the othce if by any hook or crook he can win the nomination. And he gets away with it because the average party voter seems to agree with him.

They used to say it wouldn't do for women tr vot.', because of the liquor atmosphere around the polling place-?, and because woman's place was in the home. Now, women are in the voting booths, and liquor's place is In the home.

SI'.N. JOHNSON. ltlSTOKIAN. (Detroit Saturday Night.) Nearly everybody admires a bold and courageous tighter: and our admiration has a tendency to go up or down in proi onion to our apprenal or disapproval of the cause for which the fighter is lighting. Sen. Johnson's fight against the League of Nations, for Instance, has been admired by Detroit fight-lovers- from afar because of the vim he put into it; but some of them must have experienced a sudden elrop in temperature when they heard him proclaim to his largest Detroit audience: "The battle of Chateau Thierry was won under the Stars and Stripes, ami not under the flag of

polyglot Lurope or a flag of the league of Nations.

The fact of the matter Is that the battle

e'hateau Thierry was won under a Kuropean flap, and a tlag that belongs to the League of Nations which we are invited to join the French flag, and under command of a, French emcra! by the name of roch. Insofar as the Stars and Stripes appeared in the battle., of Chateau Thierry at all it wa.s altogether in support positions, except in the case of the seventh motor machine pun battalion of the third regulars, which was the only American unit to participate directly in the battle of Chateau Thierry until after th German drbve had been stopped. For these historic facts we have the authority of Maj. Palmer, the ofT.cial war reporter on Gen. Pershing's staff, who records that the chief service rendered by the Americans on that occajUon was the supply of moral courage their presence lent to the wearied French troops. How doubly disappointing th.e-n to hear Sen. Johnson declare: "ii:u- day in early June came the word tla-shed under the sea to us that the American marines had held the foe at Chateau Thierry'; had won the day, und wen the war." Dramatic stuff, all right; but quite as demagogic as dramatic. The marines were not there at all; the Frenchmen did nearly all the lighting; and the war was not won until nearly six months later. A president ought to know American history, at least reo -it history; but if Mr. Johnson is so far off on the le. ent past, how much .n we rely on his Judgment uf ih.j near or remote future?

I had not se.n the little fellow for a long time and made quite a fuss over him. as he galloped into the house. "Hello old Funny Face." was his opening greeting. "Funny Face?" I replied in amazement, "where do vou get that stun?" Instead of replying to mv ejuestion. the young fellow kicked me :n the shins and asked for a nickel. I . ifere d him two cents. "Ah. that's just wat tax." said he in disdain, "give me a whole nickel, or r.cthin'." I pave him the nickel and he gave me a receipt. If was another L-i.k

The nephew then disappeared. He- returned in a few minutes, his face bur.d in an ice cream cone.

Nephew was then .isked to recito "The American Creed" for the company. The little fellow replied by rolling under the table and coming out on the other side he suddenly tackled the Victrola bebw the belt He had edd Vic almost over the goal line when help arrived. Preparations were then made for the recitation. Nephew was all set to start in on "The American Creed," when sudeleuily lie stopped, with this explanation: "I won't recite it in front of uncle; because he had to learn it before he

could get in the army." Fne-le then accommodatingly left the reborn, and be hinl a ctosed floor he could d.'stmctly hear his little nephew reciting in a high key. "'Tw.is the Night P.cfcre Christmas."

CONSTANCi:. Constance, meaning firm, has an unmistakable origin; it Ls derived from the Latin word contans. signifying constant, tirni, or steadfast. As a complimentary term, it formed the Roman proper name Constantius, and numerous either male names, especially among royaiity. The Scottish kings had many a derivative of Constantinus. among them and its root has been employed with various terminations in the Russian imperial family since the days of Catherine IL The daughters of the Ru.-sian family received the name about the time that Constantia sprang to I opularity among Provencal ladies. It was brought to the throne of France by the tempestuous Constance of

Prownce. wife of the mild sovereign Robert the Pious. Constance has been a royal name in France ever since. The Rreton duchess, mother of Arthur, bore it. but. accerding to some etymologists, her name was merely a feminine interpretation or that ef her father, Conan. In Italy, the name sprang up as Gostanza and the Sicilian mother of Frederick II brought it to Germany, where it straightway became Constanz, or merely. Stanz. Her great granddaughter took it to Spain as Costaira. distance is another Spanish form, introduced in Fngland by Chaucer as the name of the daughter of Pedro the cruel, wife e.f John Gaunt. Constance de I'evorley is recorded in disgrace for attending the Marchioness of Kxeter in a Steden isit to the Nun of Kent. After the Reformation, Constance vanished in England for a time- and long after came to life as Constantia. It is now as favorite and as widely used is Alice and Elizabeth ami Margare t. The moonstone is the talismani ge-m assigned to Constance. It promise s her true and steadfast love and is said to give her the p, wer to read future happiness in its depths, which faithfully, record the waxing and waning of the moon, so dear to lovers. Tuesday is her lucky day and live her lucky number. (Copyright. 1020.)

The Horoscope

m:i)Xi:sday, MARCH :n. This astrological auguries for this day are ff a conflicting nature'. While there is promise of lively and interesting comlitlons with the prospect of some financial increase, yet the general tenor of eve-nts is unsettled anil perplexing. The main danger will be found in journeys, changes or removals, which may be pre-cipltate'd because of troublesome conditions. An adverse position of Saturn points to delays, obstructions and disappointments. All matters should be kept well in hand if advantage is to be had from thev benetic positions ruling. The physical condition should also be given attention. Those whose birthday it is may have an unsettled year and one of anxiety, though they may swerve results to the side of the good by keeping matters well in hand. A child born on this day will be inclined, to be restless and unsettled.
