siderable variety of articles. Including food

v "You would scarcely expect," said the
'' bank's statement, "that the natives of

vador are demanding and getting ten times
as much per pound for Indigo as they did
before the war. Chinese and Japanese silk
KTowera are getting double tho prices pre-
vadlng prior to the war, and 'fresh' eggs
erasi Into tho United States at double tho
price of two years ago. A recent Htnte
went by the American Consul General at
1'flrls Indicates that tho Imports of Franco
111 1916 enter that country at prices about
ninety por cent higher than In 1814, and
the exnorts leavo that country nt prices
Sbrtit forty per cent above, thoso of 1914.
'"The prices shown aro thoso of the ar
ticles ln tho wholesale markets of the
countries from which tho merchandise Is
Imported Into tho United States, or tho
Actual selling price In tho country from
which the exportation occurs. Tho advance
In the Import price, therefore, docs not In
clude tho advance cost added through tho
unusually high ocean frolght rates. This
general advance Is tho moro atrlklng when
It ta remembered that a largo proportion
of tho merchandise imported Into tho United
States Is drawn from several different coun
tries, and tho Increase In tho average Im
port prtco therefore represents tho average

Among tho advances taking place the
- last two years, as enumerated by the
' talk, woro India rubber, fifty per cent;
jtoat sklno, slightly moro than fifty per

cents p6r pound; plglron, from $34. E0 to

'"wood pulp, unbleached, from $3G.D5 to
43,78 per ton, and bleached wood pulp,
from $49,20 to $SS.13 per ton. Combing
, wool, which was exported to Amorlca at
i an average of 34.4 cents n pounu in mo

Eoch Public Speaker Has Peculiarities
All His Own
Shorthand reporters soon discover the
idiosyncrasies of various speakers and wrlt-
"ieis. They become familiar with tho pet
words and phrases of publlo men, and can
follow a debate almost from memory. Every
writer and speaker has favorlto phrases and
wards that are repeated over and over again
like an endless refrain. The vernacular of
the average person Is singularly proscribed.
A man who uses unfamiliar words Is looked
upon as pedantic and a close student of the
dictionary.
In the Senate the Hon. J, Hamilton Lewis,
Of Illinois, Is dimcult to follow, because ho
,. i ha a way of saying things entirely different
from any one else, and makes use of words
usually omitted from modern dictionaries.
His, classical allusions nnd quotations aro
likely to be confusing In these prosato days.
i J3enator Marline, of New Jersey, has a pen-
chant .for the old-faahloned "Fourth of
July" oratorical style. A stenographer
would easily forecast the words and phrases
he would be likely to use "Affairs at
Washington." Joe Mitchell Chappie, in Na
tional Magazine.

tho end of Immigration, has been wooed
Into tho huslnoss nnd Industrial world from

They have the protection afforded by tho
law to fomnlo workers In business nnd
Industrial establishments, tho limitation of
working hours and that deference, lacking
In homes, that tho woman omploo llnds In
factory, Bhop nnd atore.
Thrso thrco reasons oerbalanco tho
economic attraction of domestic work. In
splto of tho greater opportunity for saving
money afforded tho worker In tho home, tho
nverngo girl prefers what Is known as
"public" work.
There Is common sense In It nnd there Is
psychology In t Tho law provides cer
tain regulations to which tho employer In
tho establishment must adhere, Including
regular hours. And tho wnrkor's pride Is
gratified by treatment which is unicnown to
the servant.
The Pennsylvania woman'B labor act of
ID 13, In its very first section, spcclllcally
excludes domestic and agricultural workers
from Its provisions, ThOiPUbllo health nnd

For twenty years George Van Busklrk,

pioneer, lived In the darkness that cataract
of the eyes brought on, only to see tho light
once more, following an operation performed
by Oreen brothers at the St. Francis Hos

Van Busklrli's resolve to undergo the
operation was formed after ho had read
or the restoration of sight to sixty-three-

FOOD SUPERVISION
URGED BY PERKINS
Continued from l'aso One.
months' period ot 1014, just preceding the
outbreak of the war, these exports totaled
but 180,000,000.
Even with a season of unusually poor
crops In virtually every grain, tho United
States has contributed a greater sharo this
year, proportionately?, than at any time
during the period ot the war and probably
than ever before In its history.. Expor
tation of the six major grains wheat, corn,
barley, rye, oats and buckwheat thus far
this year has approximately doubled since
1314.
Shipments of vegetables abroad also have
jumped by leaps and bounds. During the
eight-month period of this year U,?6S,i87
worth of vegetables has left American ports,
against 17,791,316 lasf year and 15,413,271
In 19H a rise of more than 100 per cent
during the war.
The American hen also has been called
upon to "do her bit." Against an exporta
tion of 13,117,000 In the first eight months
of 1914. the United States has shipped
11,410,000 worth of eggs during the like
period this year.
A special probe into the entire food sltua-
tion is to be discussed today by the Federal
Trade Commission.
and without such supervision nn net regu
lating the employment of domestics would
bo without forco Tho department contents
ItHelf with overseeing tho work of tho em
ployment agencies where domestics nro
engaged to determine whither or not the
positions offered tho applicants nro bona
lido positions. Further than that It has no
legal power.
Tho net states that females In estab
lishments may not bo employed moro than
ten hours In any ono day or moro thnn
Jlfty-four hours In any mio week; or moro
than nix d.iys consecutively except those
working In fruit nnd vegetable canneries

Thoso under twenty-ono yearii, except

and no worker may bo employed between

bo required to work moro thnn bIx hours
continuously, without tho stated intervnls
of forty-IHo or thirty minutes, nnd Bhall not
bo required to remain In tho workroom
during meal nnd rest periods.
The law further Imposes health provisions
and the posting of schedules, so that the
cmployo may readily understand when her
rights aro Infringed upon.
AT TO HOTEL RULE.
Upon tho enactment of the law a dispute
aroBO as to tho whether or not It npplled
to domestlo employes In hotels. The In
dustrial board of tho department there
upon mndo a ruling which threw tho pro
tection of tho law over fcmnlo hotel em
ployes as well. v
Modillcd regulations for Bhort-term sum
mer hotels wero permitted to subdivide tho
one required day of rest Into two half
days each week. Hotels and Institutions
employing not moro than ten women wero
permitted to give tho day of rost a ono
complete day of twenty-four hours each
week, ono complete Sunday or.o week
nnd a complete week dny tho next week,
alternate Sunday with one-half week day,
totaling two full days each fortnight or
two half holidays each week, defining halt
day as flvo hours' consecutive service. Ho
tels and Institutions employing more than
ten women wero required to adhere strictly
to the act.
In addition, the workmen's compensa
tion net excluded domestics, together with
agricultural workers, from tho benefits of
Its provisions.
No law fixes their hours True, there Is
a custom adhered to by good housekeepers
of setting certain hours for work and cer
taH days "off" for recreation. But even
In the best-regulated households emergen
cies arise, such as late dinners or recep
tions where the servant Is called upon for
extra time. Thcra Is no law to prevent a
domestlo working after 10 p m or before
Q a. m or surrendering her day "off"
More lmpresslvo than complaints Is the
fact that coincident with the rapid falling
off In tho supply of domestics compared
with the demand Is the Increase of female
workcrH In establishments In n bulletin
of tho State Department of Labor and In
dustry Issued this year tho number of
fcmnlo workors reported In 20,571 establish
ments for 1914 was 210,299. This number
has been Increased to 250,000, It Is esti
mated From an economic standpoint the domes
tic Hcrvnnt has nn advantage over tho girl
of the atoro or factory Out of her weekly
earnings sho Is In a position to save moro
thnn her moto Independent sister. Tho
wages of domeHtlcs, ns given by tho flics of
O. II Hopklnson, nctlng superintendent of
tho State's I'ubllo Employment Bureau,
average from 15 to 112 a week. This does
not Includo menls, lodging laundry nnd tho
very Important Item of gifts from members
of tho household, such ns nrtlclcs of cloth
ing On tho other hand tha femnlo Indus
trial workers' Incomes averaged as follows
Operators In clothing manufacture, from 1G
for beginners up to 116; paper and paper
products workers, 15 and 10; salesgirls, 15
to 17; textllo weavers, 110 to 120, and
packers, 16 to 17 50. Out of these Incomes
tho glrlB pay for their own board and lodg

that ttie domestic has tho bettor of It

Dr. Thomas Jasperson, physician of
Neenah, Wis, has Invented a process for
converting old ncwepnpcrB Into pure white

paper printing. Doctor Jaspcrson'a dis
covery hns been tcBtctl successfully. It Is
said, nnd a mill Is bolng constructed In
Chicago whom old newspapers will bo con

Tho test was made In n mill at Kalamazoo,
Mich., and tho finished product was used
for several Issues of a Neenah newspaper
The otqok that results from the process
I. n,.n whiter 'than tho original paper, It
Is said.
Doctor Jasperson, who, has been a prac

luiAniv voars. has been working on
process for four years,
ho completed his

his
Six months ago
tabors nnd offered his
Neenah

Idea to some of tho
owners.
Having faith In his Invention, Doctor
Jnspcrson nppenled to a local newspaper
publisher, with tho rosult that a contract
was signed "with a Kalamaioo mill. Through
Doctor JnKperson's chemical process and
Inter through tho pnpor-maklng machines,
sevoral rolls of paper wero made from old
nowspapers nnd sent to Neenah, whoro they
wero used
Doctor Jasperson, Blnco the test, hns been
flooded with Inquiries from all parts of tho
country Ho has obtained a patent on his
procoNH, nnd there are some Neenah paper
men who nro regretting turning down the
physician's offer
In tho process old nowspapers are put
Into n beater or mixing machine and the
chemical Is ndded By this tho Ink Is ex
tracted and tho paper pulp Is bleached a

San Francisco Woman Blnmea Ahlmal
for Unhappy Marital
Mlxup
When Charles C. 8lm, b. San Francisco
contractor, went to Stockton five years, npo
to bore an 'oil well and forgot to return
home, It worried hla wife, Mrs. Bnrah Sims,
so little that she tore up tho marriage cer
tificate, but when ono Saturday night, Mrs.
Sims saw the husband weighing another
woman on n publlo scalps and tha other
woman declared In answer to a question
that sho also was Sim's wife
Well, Mrs Sarah Sims Was Just angry
enough, according to her own story, to
swear out n warrant accusing Sims of hav
ing one wife too many.
A little fluffy while tlog belonging to Sinn,
which had a penchant for Mtlng Mrs Blms's
children, started the trouble that has re
nulled In the matr'monlal mix-up, said Mrs.
Sims, In relating the highly Involved series
nf events that led to the filing of the bigamy
charge.
About thlrty-flvo years ago Mrs Sims
wns married to Henry Kahllcr. also a con
tractor, In the cast She had throe children
by Kahler, but In 1901. after they had
moved to Oakland, they separated and were
divorced. Kahler, according to Mrs Sims,
still lives In Oakland, Is married again and
has five more children.
In 1910, In San Francisco, Mrs. Sims, then
Mrs. Kahler, met and was married to Wil
liam Erben, now said to bo a deputy sheriff.
Two weeks sufficed to separate tho two nnd
a divorce followed. Less than a year later
sho met Sims nnd thoy were married In
Martinez, April 1, 1911. Tho date, said
Mrs. Sims, w'aa not significant.
It wns Slms's second matrimonial ven
ture, said Mrs. Sims, He had one child, a
eon, now grown.
rive weeks after the marriage came tho
troublo with tho dog After It had bitten
her son and daughter, said Mrs Sims, bIio
announced that Bho would kill tho animal
Her husband objected, physically, she said
and a week later went to Stockton on the
well boring expedition As far ns Sirs. Sims
knows, sho says, tho well job Is stilt detain
ing him.
Sims, according to tho records obtained
a license August 10, 191G, In San Francisco,
to marry Bertha May Scars, who also had
ono previous matrimonial experience which
ended In divorce. Sims gavo his ago as
fifty-three, his brlde-tobo ns forty-four
Mrs. Sarah Sims admits to fifty six nnd
Bays Sims Is now flfty-clght.
Mrs Sims read tho wedding llcensa notice
In tho newspnpers, and soon nftorward filed
a bigamy charge Nothing cvor-camo of It,
sho said, and she did nothing moro until
spurred on by tho occurrcnco of last Satur
day night. ThlB was a near scene, nlilch
followod tho claim of both Mrs. Sarah Sims
and tho woman alio says Is Mrs. Ilcrtha
Slmn, that Sims Is their husband.
Now, because bIio tore up tho marrlngo
certificate, Mrs Sims Is salng up her
money to obtain a dupllcato from Martinez,
In order to proceed with tho prosecution
when Sims, whoso address Bho does not
know, 1h found.
