RISE OF MODERN GREECE
Globe Democrat,

An experience Of nearly four cen turies under the malignant rule of the Turk has nervea Greece during the present century to make every possible sacrifice to drive the ep- pressor from her old territory. The powers of Europe more distant from the scene may patch up treaties to avert war by denying justice, but Greece will accept no compromise as long as the Sultan holds any Greek community in subjection. Modern Greece grows slowly, yet it grows. Though it's future looked uncertain at it's birth in 1929, events have gradually strengthened it as a nation, and tho day seems gear when 1t will begin to count in cur rent history. An important share E in the settlement of the Eastern question may be conceded to Greece, as it is or the ground in geograph- ical sense, and will do all that 2,000- 900 people can do in a supreme effort to drive from it's soil terrible hered- itary enemy.
 Greece is unusually fortunate in it's present royal family, which has proved acceptable to the people, and is blessed with full supply of popu- lar princes for the succession. King George is not Greek, but a deeend- ant of the vikings, member of the remarkable Danish household which gave to England the Princess Of Wales and to Russia Czarina. The Danes are fond of a song relating to their royal house, the refrain of which runs: "A fine family is that of King Christian. The descend ants of the Danish monarch will oc- cupy the thrones of great Britain, Russia, Greece and Denmark, which,

He Walked Far Too Far.

In hotel in Berlin there is night watchman who did not take kindly to the system adopted few years ago requiring him to go through the hotel at certain hours and touch an electric hutton fixed up in various places.
 After much thought he fixed up an automatic arrangement on several of the buttons so that they would report at certain hours. Soon the button sys- tenn got so out of order that the man. agement abolished it.
 It was found necessary to keep watch ill some way on the gentleman, how ever, and finally n pedometer was given him to carry on his rounds which would register every step he took All went well the first two nights thereafter, but on the morning following the third night the old man was missing Or search being made he was found sound asleep in the engine room, and the pe- dometer so attached to the piston rod Of the engine that with every stroke it reg istered step. It had been travelling all night, and when taken off it registered 212 miles. Berlin Gazette.

The more I think of it I find this conclusion more impressed upon me, that the greatest thing a human soul ever does i'll this world is to see some thing and tell what it saw in a plain way.

SENATOR TuRPiE.
Some Stories of the Famous Gentleman
 From Indiana.

Some Stories of the Famous Gentleman
 From Indiana.
 Senator Turpie Is one of the most in tereating characters in publis life. He is, perhaps, the most scholarly man on the Democratic side of the senate Handicapped by partial palsy and ap unpleasant and indistinct voice, he yet ranks as one of the best orators in con. gress though from his infirmities of voice and delivery there is more plea. gnre in reading than i'll listening to his speeches. He possesses q vast vocabulary and a power of inyective that constitute him an antagonist to be avoided by dis erect opponents.
 He was graduated at Kenyon, Ohio's famous college. When he went there, he was a raw youth from the farm. 1t was the custom at Kenyon to divide the stu dents into two sets or classes for pur- poses of debate. The division of new students was made when the course be. gan each year. The year of Turpie's first attendance the leaders divided the new corners amicably until Turpie only wa, left. He was of such unpromising ap pearance that neither side wanted him. But he had to be taken by one or the other, so the leaders sat down and played game of seven up, Turpie, un. known to himself, forming the stake, but with the agreement that the loser should take him.
 After the game the winner thought he had great joke on his antagonist. but his satisfaction did not last long, for in month Turpie cane to be recog- nized as the best man in the college and remained it's intellectual star until grad uation. Washington Post

That most dreadful of all diseases consumption, is disease of the blood The disease shows in the lungs because of some inherited or acquired weak ness there. If the blood were always pure and without germs, the disease would never develop and ill time weakness itself would be overcome. Germs and impurities in the blood float along through the body until they find weak spot for ledgement They stick there and develop and people call the disease by the name of the organ afflicted. As matter of fact, the disease is always a disease of the blood, and if the blood be purified, the disease will be cured. That is a perfectly natural, rational conclusion, en. dorsed both by common sense and the highest medical authority.
