OVER PRODUCTION. Secretary of Labor Davis, in his annual report, calls attention to the hard situation existing in many lines industry, due to over population. He notes that many of the industries have expanded to a point where they can produce very much more in their various lines than the country needs. Hence there is a tendency for these factories to glut the market, so that many concerns have to run on part time, with the result that workers are unemployed a good deal of the time. This is a big problem, but it does not just appear what the government can do about it.

The socialists will say it occurs because industry is demoralized under private manAgement. Yet if the government were running the industries, or they were being operated by committees of employes on a soviet system, these discrepancies would I be even more likely to occur. Under present conditions, it does not pay for an employer to provide unnecessary equipment, as money used in that way is not profitable. Nevertheless, there is much over production, with very harmful effects. One reason why industry runs in a kind of "steady by jerks" way, is that the demands of the people are so changeable and whimsical.

They will call for a certain style of clothing at one time, and then in a few months this all goes by, and they want something wholly different. This makes it necessary to run factories with a very big production for a short time, and then lie idle until the new trend of style can be foreseen. Producers will do well to study the advantages gained by operating their plants regularly, which in the long run will pay, even if at some seasons they hardly get a new dollar for an old one. When industries run in that regular way, they are not so likely to expand beyond the needs of the market, because they know in advance pretty nearly what the market needs. JAZZ MUSIC.

Some observers feel that modern jazz music incites people to undecorous conduct, that it so affects them that they act in a way they would not do in soberer moments. Yet the remark was made by Dr. Van. Waters of Los Angeles, a speaker before the Child Study Association at New York, that jazz has a very important meaning to young people and we should try to discover what that meaning is. Dance music of a strongly rhythmical character has always stirred people to vigorous expression, and led them to dance in a more exaggerated way.

Yet the volumes of old dance music on our shelves would show many old melodies that led to exaggerated pigeon wings. People who have a keen sense of rhythm find it difficult to keep their feet still when the music plays, and the more marked and syncopated it is, the more they feel like kicking out. If people are trained to be gentlemen and ladies, they will not be led merely by jazz to do things they should be ashamed of. Much of this jazz is weak and commonplace, a repetition of some threadbare musical idea over and over again. But some of it is regarded by musicians as having distinctive character, so it can not all be rejected in a sweeping' way.

Probably the young people are not any worse off kicking out the jazz measures than they are when sitting in dark corners. It is up to the families to train their young people in such ideals of conduct that they will not care to lower themselves by unsuitable doings. After they get that point of view, jazz music will do not harm, except that it may divert their interest from the great masterpieces of music which are so much more inspiring than the ordinary popular melodies. Rippling Rhymes? Welt Meson, THE TIGHTWAD. Jasper Jangle walked alone, every time he went abroad, for the fact was widely known that the dollar was his god; he was never known to spend seven cents to aid a friend; lie would neither give nor lend, he was married to his wad.

People do not like the gent who has kopecks on the brain who can only spare a cent with excruciating pain; who is deaf to wail and sigh when the hungry teeter by, who can scorn the widow's cry, treat the orphan with disdain. No one cares to walk beside anyone with miser soul, who with cords of steel is tied to his ever roll; so old Jasper had to wend up the brae and doon the bend without comrade, without friend, who would conform or condole. But upon a fateful day we were with him as he waiked, and our hearts were blithe and gay, as we tittered, as we talked; at his heels a hundred stept and we woke him when he slept and we joshed him when he wept and we chortled when he balked. For the fact was bruited 'round that old Jasper had been stung, that his weak spot had been found by a man with oily tongue; falling for the gins and snares he had bought a hundred shares in a farm for grizzly bears, sorely were his withers wrung. When a kind man strikes a snag all the neighbors sympathize, and we carry him a bag full of prunes and custard pies; oh, we hand him words of cheer and a stein of kickless beer and we wipe away the tear he is shedding with his eyes.

But the mean man is a jest when he suffers a verse, when from out his treasure chest some vile faker fills his purse; and we laugh to hear his groans for the lost lamented bones and in loud triumphant tones all his misdeeds we rehearse.

DR. NERBAS DENTIST Painless Extraction Gas When Desired Pyorrhea Cured Phone 488 Masonic. Bide. Most people hate exercise, hate it so much that lots of them have to join classes and their exercising in company, just to keep one another's courage and interest. Exercise in fuselt probably is a bore, but then, cold creaming one's face or powdering one's nose aiso a bore.

The only thing is to think ahead to the good resuns that will be produced. You must exercise every day. Housework may be sufficient for you, or you may be able to get in a brisk walk, even doing your household errands and shopping. That's better than nothing. But the housework of a small apartment isn't enough exercise for the day.

It may be tiring, that's different. Work that repeats certain motions over and over again to the point of semi-exhaustion is not exercise--not beneticial exercise at least. Real exercise must develop the muscles all over the body, or certain sets of muscles not ordinarily used. If, for instance, you hold your hands over your head, and then bend down, keeping your knees stiff, and touch or strain to touch the floor with your finger tips, you'll feel a pull along the backs of the legs and the backs of the knees that will surprise you. After a few day's practice, you'll be able to bend easily, and you won't feel the strain, neither will those muscles be sore.

Even your second attempt at bending over will be much more successful than the merely because you've used those muscles. PO Each day you should practice a bending exercise, a waist revolving or waist bending exercise, an arm and a leg exercise and deep breathing. It you have special weaknesses, exercise to get rid of theim. And if you do not know what to practice, ask your doetor, he'll tell Or get a book on exercise, and choose the ones TAKE EXERCISE CHATS you think you need. Doing it yourself may be dull, but it will be good for you.

It liked, add citron, candied orange peel and lemon peel, cut in small strips. Method: Chop the suet by hand; buy the kind that comes next to the kidney (you will have to pull all the 100se skin and threads off before chopping it). With the hands, mix together this chopped suet, the fruit, and the flour. Then add cold, sweet milk (or water) until the mixture can be rolled up like a loaf of bread; slip this loaf into either one large or two small cheese cloth bags and steam for two hours. It may be boiled, instead, but in this case put a saucer in the bottom of the kettle to prevent the pudding from burning.

Serve with vanilla sauce. This pudding is better every time it is warmed up and it will keep in a cool place for a long time. My mother used to make it every year for Christmas." Mrs. G. "The following answers a recent request: Onion Cake or Zwiebelkuchen (copied from an old Bavarian cookbook).

'Cut a few onions in long, fine pieces; fry them with some finelydiced bacon and a big piece of butter for a few minutes, then let all become cold. Line a pie pan with good pastry. When the onions are cold, mix them with one-half quart of sour cream, from two to four eggs, enough salt to suit individual liking, and some caraway seeds.
