PREVENTS
SMALLPOX

Don't forget that lettuce is pre-
ventive of smallpox.
So far as it is possible for a human
being to be protected from catching
smallpox, lettuce is protection.
No need for vaccination whatever
Any person who eats small quantity
of lettuce twice day, morning and
evening, is as well protected against
smallpox as it is possible for any one
to be.
To be sure, one ought to be clean
ought to live in ventilated rooms, and
avoid dirt of all sorts. Also contact
with people who have smallpox is not
to be thought of. But there is nc
need for vaccination.
Go calmly on about your business
Provide small quantity of lettuce
morning and evening, and you can
feel sure that you have protected
yourself and your family in the best
possible way against smallpox.
Lettuce is one of the oldest vege
tables remedies know to the medical
profession. Long before it was used
as a food it was used as medicine
Many times it has been claimed that
it has magical or miraculous powers
to prevent contagious disease. We
believe this is carrying matters alto
yether too far. But lettuce does fur
nish to the system exactly what is
needed to protect it against the poi
son of smallpox.
We defy any one to produce a case
of smallpox that has been contracted
by any person who made daily use o.
lettuce as food. If there is any such
,.,e on recDd, We would be glad to
hear of it.-Medical Talk.

THE WIFE.

proverbs, xxi, 10 80
A vlrtuous woman! Who can find her lik-:
Her worth is far above the rubies' price.
Her husbands heart doth IN her safely trust;
SO that he shall not need the battles spoil.
Good will she richly do him, never i'll.
Through all the days of her industrious life,
She seeketh wool and fax, and with her hands
She wolketh willingly. Like merchants ship,
Her food she bringeth from the parts afar.
She riseth also while it yet is night
Unto her waking household giveth meat.
And to her maidens portioneth their task.
A field consia reth she, and buyeth it;
With her hands .uit vineyard plantetb she.
Her loins with strength she girdeth. and her arms
She maketh strong. Her merchandise is good.
And she perceiveth it; her lamp by night
.Ne'er goeth out. Her hands the distaff hold,
And to the spindle Iayeth she her hands.
Unto the poor she stretcheth out her hand;
Yea, to the needy reacheth forth her hands.
She for her household feareth not the snow;
All of her household scarlet garments cothe.
Her coverlets are made of tapestry;
And silk and purple nobly habit her.
Her husband, when he sitteth in the gates,
Is known among the elders Of the land.
Fine linen maketh she and selleth it;
Her girdles with the merchant find mart.
Honor and strength are her habilaments;
And in the time to come shall she rejoice.
Her mouth she openeth with wisdom's words;
And in her tongue the law of kindness is.
Unto her households ways she looketh we'll,
And eateth not the bread Of idleness.
Up rise her children, and they call her blest;
Her husband also, and he praiseth her.
With virtuous deeds have many daughters shone,
But thou excell'st the glory of them all.
Favor is but deceit, and beauty vain;
Praise crowns the woman who doth fear the Lord.
R. D.. F., in Baltimore Sun.

social gatherings will be no more, and
that the innocent plays with their
wealth Of osculation will be ended by
the encroachments from outside. Rath-
er let this reli gious oasis in the heart
Of Lancaster remain as it is with its
charming eccentrlcities of outward
dress and manners and customs; where
the barns worshipped in are suggested
Of the Manger Of Bethlehem, the frill-
ed caps of the women reminders of the
aureoles of the saints, and the untrim-
med locks of the men of those of Old
Testament prophets.
"The groves were Gods first tenn.
ples," and two thousand yerrs ago the
evangelists preached on desert plain
and mountain side, and by the shores
of river and lake, with no roof but the
sky. Spirred and domed palaces, call.
ed churches, with velvet padded floors
cushions of down, stained glass win.
dows, surpliced choirs and pealing Or
sans, were not then deemed necessary
accessories to heavenly recognition
So the Amish barn, with its lingering
scents of the fields of summer in its
broad mows, and which we ridicule OF
tolerate as our moods direct, are more
in consonance with the places of wor
ship of the early Christians. Instead
of being religious Outlanders, rather
have these simple-minded Amish gone
back to the first principles OF our faitl
with their deeds of brotherly kindness
their simplicity of dress, their baptiz.
ing in running streams, their feet
washings and humble modes of wor.
ship, and their critics gone farther
away from it in ways of luxuriout
worship to gain luxurious heaven

Eelect @isrellany,
Another Peculiar People.

Outside of Friends there are several
other societies which have aversion to
war, to capital punishment, the taking
OF oaths and tendency towards plain
ness of dress as their characteristics,
most prominent among which are the
Dunkers, Mennonites and Amish, and
each OF the three with subdivisions,
the Mennonitcs with dozen or more,
and all choosing their ministers by lot
the ministers from the laymen, the
bishops from the ministers-for which
they claim scriptual authority. To US
the most familiar are the Dunkers and
Mennonites from being found in some
of the extreme eastern counties of
Pennsylvania and in the New Jersey
county of Hunterdon, 80 l will confine
myself to the Amish, or Omisb, as the
name is generally pronounced.
These are a branch of the Mennon.
ties from whom they split as early as
1920, following preacher named
Amen, who, thinking the followers of
Memo were getting too worldly,
taught the substitution of hooks and
eyes for buttons and the non.trim-
ming of hair and boards. In 1865,
seeing tendency of the society to
break from these traditions, as we'll
as the establishment of regular places
OF worship, branch off occurred,
known as the Old School Amish, in
distinction to the new lights, or Meet
ing house Amish. OF the last there
are some of $500, mainly in India ma
and Ohio, but there is large settle
ment in the region east and northeast
of Lancaster, in this State; and of
these will speak more particularly.
The branch Of peaceful religionists
obtained their chief peculiarities from
their extreme plainness of dress, their
indifference, not to say aversion, to
the cause OF education, their confine-
ment to agriculture as means of life
support, and their persistent isolation
from the worlds people. They Sc
lected a limestone section, and being
saving and Industrious thrived great
ly, but as land advanced in price dur
ing and after our Civil War they COM
mitted the imprudence common to
farmers of greater financial preten-
tions Of buying too much land for the
money they had to pay down, 80, when
values lowered, their margins vanish
ed, and many a poor Amishman went
t. the WALL Cannishness and aid in
financial trouble 90 together. Lind
costing from 1925 to $3.50 per acre
sold tor less than half that price. and
was bou ght by their wealthier Amish
farmers, who aided their weaker broth
ers in buying cheaper lands outside
the coveted limestone section, where
they are now thriving, for, with Il
fair chance, the Amishman will rise
above poverty. So that part of our
State, instead Of being one of aban-
doned farms is where land is bought
or rented as soon as the occasion arises
for offering.
There are no stcrekeepers nor pro
fessonal men among the Amish; they
leave these vocations to the world 9
people, and to the satisfaction of the
