Washington Special.
 There will be no flowers in either house on the opening day of Congress. Two years ago, soon after Speaker Cam non was sworn in, an attempt was made to bring In large floral pieces and place them upon the desks of members. but the Speaker issued positive orders to stop the proceeding, and the banks of flowers remained in the lobbies until they were sent to the homes of the members.
 A standing resolution of the Senate was adopted during the last session barring flowers from the Senate cham Der. Speaker Cannon has already giv- en notice that he will not allow the flowers to be brought into the House as heretofore.
 The officers of both houses have been informed that there will be no floral dispIay. and flowers intended for mem bers will probably be stopped at the doors of the Capitol on the opening day.

Yachting Costume.

Alpacas and brilliantines in solid col
ors are to the fore among the tailor
mades for yachting costumes, together
with dark blues, which are in particu-
lar favor once more, and If given
touches Of white or brilliant orange,
green or red, 1t must be confessed
they prove very jaunty, fit and becom-
ing. No one, however, who goes in for
sport of this sort ever depends upon
one costume, as what will look exceed
tngly well on a certain occasion will
not do at all upon another. In that
way outfits are necessary that include,
let US say, an all white, light beige,
n dark blue, besides a few linen suits
as well.-Vogue.

A REAL VACATION.

A young man writes the editor
that he is to have only a week va
cation this summer and wants to
know the best way to spend it.
First, the dOnt's:
Dout go to summer resort.
Don't travel the beaten paths. Don't
go where you must observe the con-
ventiOns of civilized life. Don't go
where your nerves will be kept on
edge. Don't go with the crowd.
Your labors are in the city. Spend
your vacation where you can live
like an Indian. Go where you can
live the simple, the natural life. Go
where you can find yourself!
A real vacation is IA visit back to
Mother Earth whence we came and
where we belong.
One gets off the pavements and
magnetism that is in the earth comes
up through ones feet-especially the
barefooted-and recharges all the
DhtGSfltS Vi one DOuy.
The real vacation gives back whole
provinces of ones being that have
been lost by the conquest of the arti-
fetal life we live. "The call of the
wild" is the call to the prodigal son
who has gone into a far country and
lived on the husks. And for her re-
turning son Nature kills the fatted
calf and restores the patrimony.
Hunt, fish, botanic, swim?
No
Let mind and heart and nerves
and muscles lie faIlow. Let your
nature bleach. Let it stretch Re-
lax. In the simple life there must.
be no complex problems. Let Ma
ture soak III. Loaf and invite your
soul. Be vagabond.
You can't get near to Natures
heart by doing things. Lie still on
her bosom. Let her woo you with
her lullabies. OF course if you must
row boat or fish do so-but above
all, loaf!
By letting go all hold on civilized
things you can get more from a
weeks vacation than most persons
get in month.

POLITICS AND
THE PULPIT.

Shall the pulpit take part in poll
tics2 This old question has been
presented with some bitterness in
this county quite recently.
Let the preachers stick to religion
and keep out of politics" bowls at
least one man in Putnam county
And it may be noted that the echo
of vigorous negatives which follow
comes from those who fall most di-
rectly under the ministerial condem-
nation.
But where is the logic? Must the
man who is devoting his life to the
teaching of morality talk only of the
wickedness of those who have been
dead for thousand years? What
would be said of minister who saw
u murder committed and refused to
raise hand on behalf of the victim
if he argued that the prevention of
crime was no part of his business?
Must he stand supinely by and wit
ness gambling, the liquor iniquity
and kindred wees go unchecked, yet
fear to raise his voice because, for
sOoth, he would not be talking "re-
ligion?"
1t would be interesting to know
just what ideals of priestly ethics are
held by those who would deprive the
minister of the gospel of the right to
free speech but the argument that
they should be debarred from discus
sing public affairs or pointing ont
public wrong must be open to the
suspicion of being inspired by those
who fear such potent influence.
The present campaign for prohibit
ton now going on in Putnam is one
in which, as leaders of thought, the
ministry should properly be heard.
Moral questions do not claim u
large share III the politics of this
country. When such question
does enter it would seem strange,
and we would lose respect for the
cloth, did it not line up on the side
which makes for civic virtue and the
highest ideals in government.
