WHERE ENGLISH AND AMERICAN
 CARTOONISTS DIFFER.

MT. Gould, the English cartoonist, has thus defined his method: ITO hit hard without giving offense. Directly a car toon becomes abusive it fails in it's eff feet. This is purely the English ideal. In America the people like strong per sonal attack. An American caricaturist once expressed his surprise to me at the mildness of English caricature; he could not understand it until he came over here. when he soon found that the American type would not be toler- ated. Our people do not like bur- lesque.' There is no doubt that this difference in taste is phenomenon which goes right into the roots of na- tional character. It is worth the atten- tion of psychologists and historians. Why is American caricature cruel, while English caricature is humane? DouMless, American caricature has been profoundly influenced by the Ger man school, from Mast to Keppler, from Keppler to Opper. But we must dig deeper for the real explanation. Cruel caricature is a mark of political immaturity of raw civilization. France, Germany, and the United States are still in their political teens. We in England have outgrown caricature and other diseases of political infancy It may be that we are senile; at any rate, we are polite. It is true that we are not yet so polite as the Chinese, but we are creeping m

LINGUIsT EXTRAORDINARY.
Professor Weiner of Harvard, Speaks
 Twenty-six Languages

Professor Weiner, of Harvard, Speaks
 Twenty-six Languages
 Twenty-six is the modest number of languages with which Professor Wei ner, of Harvard, is equipped to meet life. And yet he feels that his linguist- ic ability is inadequate to solve the pathological problem that confronts the head of the department of Slavic languages in the Cambridge seat of learning.
 That may be true, but it is also true that Professor Wener would have to travel steadily all year to visit the countries which speak the languages he has already mastered. He would need a special train and steamers for quick trips in order to keep in practice in the other languages which he de- clares he is going to learn. And he is only 43 now.
 From his boyhood Professor Weiner was trained by his father, who spoke thirteen languages, so that his wonder full linguistic knowedge has grown naturally from the cradle and Sanskrit was as much a boyhood amusement as the sled and skates.

IMMoRTELLEs.

The manufacture of immortelle wreaths in Paris occupies at least fif- teen hundred persons. The ifnmortelles are gathered about the beginning of October, and come chiefly from the arid hills in the middle and south of France. They are brought to the mar kets in their natural condition, and the yellow blossoms are dyed green. red and white, and woven into wreaths by special workmen in readiness for All Saints and All Souls days, when all good Parisans visit their relatives
 graves. On these ''fetes des morts' the gates of the cemeteries are beset with crowds of dealers in immortelle wreaths, wire crosses and head crowns. At Pere la Chaise alone more than two hundred thousand persons are calcu- lated to visit the cemetery, and the sale of immortelle wreaths varies from 10000 to 25,00O.-The Golden Penny.

Wonderful Rew Discovery, Which Entirely Removes This
 Terrible AffIictIOn.
FREE TREATMENT ON REQUEST

There is no other disease so widespread as Catarrh. It infests nearly every home and is felt to greater or less degree by almost all of us at some time during our lives.
 Its ravages are not confined to the nose alone but it soon affects the Throat and Lungs, then the Stomach and Liver, and finally the Kidneys and Bowels become

weakened and broken down by reason of
 the terrible curse of Catarrh. This dis ease is inhammatory in it's nature and is very liable to affect the membranes and
 tissues of any vital organ or part of the system and produce results which cause
 lifetime of suffering and regret.
 Men of science and students of medi-
 cine have tried in vain for years to find
 positive cure, but it has remained for
 one living in our own generation to fin
 ally discover what he claims to be cer
 tain remedy for Catarrh of any organ of the body. His claims are vouched for by the words of hundreds of people whose honesty cannot be doubted; people whu
 have suffered for years and tried every
 other known r e m e dy without avail;
 people who had not faith at first but
 were finally cured and convinced of the
 wonderful power of this new discovery
 in medical science.
 The famous physician to whom the
 credit belongs for this wonderful devel- opment and addition to twentieth-cent- ury science is DR. J. A. JONAS,
 Fredericksen Bldg, South Bend, Ind. He will send anyone who is suffering from Catarrh free treatment 10 prove the merits and wonderful curative properties of this new discovery. Readers are re- quested to describe their case when writ ing to the doctor for the Free Treatment. If you have arg other disease, pain or affliction besides Catarrh write the doctor about it and he will send free treatment for that also at the same time he sends you the Free Treatment for Catarrh.

 He was making a tour Of isolated Slavic villages in search of the source Of the 'bottomless cup" theme in Arthurian romance. When he returned to Cambridge in the fall one of his dis tinguished eonfreres Jokingly asked him if he had had any trouble with the languages.

A Comment.

During Southern tour" said John
D. Rockefeller, Jr., II attended church one
Sunday morning in quaint little wood
en- meeting house where the pews were of
unpainted pine boards.
"The minister was a good man, a sin
cere man, a really eloquent man, but he
had contracted somewhere an unfortu'
nate habit of believing. He sellowed Like
q bull. His voice shook the rafters. The
sound overwhelmed the sense and it was
often impossible for very noise, to get at
the mans meaning.
"He was especially loud during the
PRAYER. never heard such an uproar as
filed the little building while this South
ern minister prayed. After he was
through, little girl on my left gave a
sigh of relief and I heard her whisper to
her father:
"sFather, don't you think that if he
lived nearer to God he wouldn't have to
talk so loud?"'
