Because of the heavy invest: ment in silver, it was desirable that the hair be renewed. This being a brush and not the editor's head, no recourse had to hair restorers or cures for baldness, which probably would have taken the rest of the hair that was left. Instead, the plan was to have new bristles inserted. The gentlemanly attendant! the jewelry repair counter shook his h sadly and passed the brush back when it was sub- mitted to him. ‘*Sorry,”’ he said, ‘but on account of the war we can't put in any new bristles for you."" “*On account of the war’? v pt to do with it?** The bristles in hair brushes are Russian hog bristles. Because of the war the . y. So we can’t repair it What has the Jes of the stockyards! This right here in Chicago, the porkopolis of the world!—in Illinois, more famous for pork than for poetry, for hogs than for higher criticism! Offhand one would suppose that if there were any place in the world where bristles would be plentiful, it would be on State Street. Yet State Street has been get- ting its hog bristles from Russia! — and when Russia is shut off from the world, our hair brushes must languish and die for the want of a few Russian bristles. If this war does nothing more for u: will show us to what an extent we been buying abr the things that we ought to be making at home. The bristle on the Russian hog may be longer or stronger than the American product—now. But there is no reason why it cannot be im- proved. The importation of a few Russian hogs and methods, or even speaking kindly but firmly to the American hog in the Rus- sian language, might do the trick. It is time we began ing a market for our own bristles instead of for the European product. We should give preference to the American hog. And the same is true of a lot more things besides that could just as well be made in the U.S. A. The whole bristle question is astonishing; and nothing is more astounding than to find that the American packer, who is popularly supposed to utilize everything but the squeal, also has been overlooking the bristle Douglas Mal- loch, in American L nner man.
