Protection for Public Men.

An Austrian inventor has perfected
a garment which, it is claimed, Will
resist a knife thrust or a bullet
from an assassin's pistol. Its adoption
will furnish wonderful protection to
rulers and public men, and while it is
to protect their bodies from
harm on the outside, it is infinitely
more important to protect Their from
serious danger on the inside, such as
may arise from a disordered stomach,
weak kidneys or impure blood. The
best health maker and protector
known to science is the old reliable
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. For fifty
years it has been making sickly peo-
pie well by curing all such ailments
as sick headache, indigestion, dyspep-
STA, flatulency and insomnia. 1t is also
a splendid spring tonic and blood pur-
ifier, and should be in every house,
hold.

A Substitute for Rubber.

The Rocky mountain grease-wood
plant has a milky sap and the old
wood a resinous gum which is soluble
in carbon bisulphide and in other
known hydro-carbon solvents of rub
Der. From the sap it is possible to
make artificial India rubber. The
plant, bruised between rollers, is ex-
posed to the action of carbon bisul-
phide, naphtha or other solvent of
India rubber. The solution is evapor-
ated and a gum remains of a brown
color, highly flexible and elastic, COM
bustible and possessing the character
istics of India rubber. The gum can
be vulcanized by the addition of sui
phur in the same manner as India
rubber.

Didn't Work Out.

A woman awoke in the middle OF the
night with a shrek.
"John," she cried to her husband,
my sister Jane is dead! / now 1t! l
have just had a frightfully vivid dream
about her."
But her husband quieted her, and
presently she went to sleep, her cheeks
still wet with tears.
Then he noted the exact hour at
which his wife had had her dream.
The next day, as can be verified by
anybody who is skeptical, no messen-
ger of any sort came with a telegram
containing the sad news of the death OF
her sister Jane, who, at last
was still alive and well.

Railroad officials find that employees
addicted to the use of strong drink are
not to be depended upon. All the i'm
portant railroads are wedding out the
men who are hard drinkers and who
smoke cigarettes. The Union Pacific
has forbidden its employees to frequent
saloons whether on or off duty, and the
result is that at Cheyenne, Wyo., TWEEN
ty-fve saloons have had to close their
doors.

Of precedence in position and rank on
state occasions has arisen in Washing
ton between the Judges of the SUI

foreign countries. Official and social
questions are involved and it is ex-
pected that the President, who consid-
ers himself the highest authority in
these matters, as in all else, will send
a special message to Congress on the
subject. Unless a satisfactory settle

The newspapers of Chicago are ag-
itating the question of having the sale
of headache remedies stopped by the
drug stores of the city. One death and
several cases of severe illness have
been traced to the use of these rene
dies, and an analysis of several we'll
advertised headache powders has
shown that they are very injurious,
especially to anyone affected with
heart trouble.

There are neighborboods and towns that

the atmosphere of kindness and goodwill
which prevails. When any city opens its

or popular organization to accept its
hospitality, there is an effort made to

Cor. xii Ito
Denominational loyalty has ever been
a characteristic Of Christian Endeayor
Interdeaoin.natienaI Fellowship has
been emphasized and rracticed. but
not at the expense OF loyalty to ones
own denomination. The Endeavorer
who proves disloyal to his own church
IL disloyal to Christian EndeaTor, and,
while he may have a name to live, he
is dead
The spirit of UNCONVENTIONAL loyalty
taught and cultivated in the Christian
EndeavOr society should arouse the
deepest kind of interest in the great
benevolent boards OF our church, espe-
ciaily the boards Of home and foreign
misslop. by whatever name they may
be known. The ignorance of the aver
age church member concerning the
great missionary agencies and enter
prises OF his own church Is pathetic
and inexcusable. And ignorance is
I
biisa but 1t Is never provoker OF
good works Ignorance begets indif-
ference and apathy. How can we be
interested unless we know? Yet how
few do knowi How few Endeavor
could name the benevolent agencies Of
their church. describe their character.
functions and fields of operation!
Thousands Of church members never
saw a report OF one OF their church
boards. Is Il any wonder. then, that
we are sometimes careless and indif-
ferent In our support OF the boards?
Go to your pastor. obtain from him lit
erature and reports Of the missionary
agencies Of your church and make a
special study OF them. If you win do
so, your interest in their work and sup
port Of IL viii at once increase.
The missionary boards of our church.
90 should enlist the prayers, interest
and hearty support OF every one of us.
Through them our church's work il
done. and as the members of church
we should loyalty support all its work.
The boards are not private concerns
for the committees that direct them or
the chosen officials who administer
their affairs. They belong to the whole
church and in part TO us as members
OF the church We should therefore
most heartily support them. They are
wisely directed and economically ad.
ministered. Many people have the i'm
preston that the church boards are
most extensively operated, but this IL
false impression. All money is wise
iy spent. The least possible expense is
incurred in applying all gifts to the
purposes Tor which they are given II
is a positive misrepresentation and
usually simply a miserable excuse for
miserlsness for people TO say that the
bulk o. mission money is used In its
distribution. Such is far from being
the case. as little investigation on the
part Of any one viii show. Let us In
form ourselves on the work Of the
boards aud be loyal 10 them.
