We have never had the opportu-
nifty Of doing adollar's worth Of state
printing and hence are not person
ally interested in'the question now
before the legislature, and recon-
mended by Gov. Crawford of estab-
fishing state printing Office, but
as business proposition we be.
lieve it would be failure. To
equip plant for that line of work
would cost thousands Of dollars.
and to employ men competent to
run it would require large salaries.
The printing required by the state
would keep the plant busy only a
small portion Of the time, and the
rest OF the time the plant would be.
an expensive luxury. We do not
question the fact that the state is
now paying exorbitant prices for
much of its printing but this is
largely due to the methods of let
ting the contracts. Much of the
work is not done by contracts at
all, but is given out as plums to
certain favorites, and the contracts
that are let are submitted to but
few bidders. Revise the methods
of letting the contracts and there
will be no need for a public print
ing Office.

Something That May Be Said in Their
Favor

From the st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
"Physiognomists tell US that the big-nosed
people do the worlds work." said a Short

orally add lot of rubbish about Napoleon's
big nose and how he always selected big
nosed men to carry out daring undertake
ings
THAT Napoleon story was invented by
some one with q nose like Cyrano de Ber-
gerac's, who wanted an excuse for his pro-
boscis, and therefore pretended that his
nose was but the introduction to a massive.
imposing character. 1t il true that big
nose is sometimes indicative of frmness and
determination. but only when 1t is associat-
ed with strong jaw and long chin. A big
nose with retiring chin is almost idiotic In
the expression 1t gives to the countenance.
Every cartoonist knows this Whenever
you see a cartoon Of a society dude II shows
long nose and small chin.
But there Is something to be said in IA.

EPWoRTH LEAGUE NOTES.

held on the evening of March % at Mount
Vernon Place Church. Rev. w. F. Locke,

president of the Mount Vernon Place
League, will be the hosts
A workers conference will be held at Z
o'clock and at o'clock there will be a
meeting of general interest, to which the

Special interest will attach to these meet
ings on account of the visit to the city at
that time of Bishop E. E. Hoss of Mont
eagle. Tenn; Bishop w. A. Gambler of At
lanta, Ga, and DR.. w. F. McMurry Of
Louisville, KY, the secretary of church ex-

Staunton. Va, where he will preside over
the Baltimore conference of the Southern
Methodist Church, which meets in that

THE HEART OF SHELLEY.
Where It Really Lies Buried a Mat
ter for Speculation.

Letter in the New York Evening Post.
A paragraph in the Church Times of Eng
land asserts that Percy Bysshe Shelley's
heart does not lie in the Protestant ceme-
terry at Rome, but at Boscombe, near
Bournemouth
The correspondent, who signs himself
Peter Lombard" says: Il was many
years ago expressing my opinion that II
Shelley had lived he would have done as
the radicals, Wordsworth and Coleridge,
did, namely, turn tory and high church.
man, and said 1 was glad that his ere
mated ashes had received Christian burial.
I am very glad to hear you say So said an
old listener, for 1t was / who buried Shell
ley The speaker the late Richard
Burgess, rector of Holy Trinity, at Chel-
sea-"
The usual Shelley tradition respecting his
death and burial is that stated In the hand
books on English literature, e.. that he
passed the winter OF 1922 at Pisa, and in
the April following took up residence near
Lerici. in the Gulf Of Spezzia. Passionately
fond of boating, especially of yachting, ON
July g. 1923, accompanied by an officer OF
the British navy. he sailed from Leghorn.
having gone there to meet Leigh Hunt and.
being overtaken by sudden squall. was
capsized and drowned with his companion.
The bodies were washed ashore. and burned,

time and place. the witnesses to the ere.

and Mr.. Trelawny. The ashes were pre-
served and buried in the hI..e Protestant
cemetery at Rome close by the body of bis
associate in melodious verse, Keats, over
whose tomb Is written:
Here lies one whose name is writ In
water"
But what of the heart of Shelleyf !
mean his heshy one. 1t is affirmed that In
the process Of cremation-then crude-this
organ was not consumed; and that the rest
ing place Of Shelley's heart, as stated above,
is in old England, and not in far of Italy.
That heart, truly speaking was never
buried, but throbs on as in "Prometheus
Unbound" and wherever love of liberty
beats, with hope for the future Of man.
The old and distorted views of Shelley.
like those Of his friend. Lord Byron, are
laid to rest. He was tried as by fire. and
made atonement for many sins. But his
soul of kindness and continuous philan-
thropy, like his passionate poetical dedica-
ton to great ideals. will linger with us to
quicken many minds to q higher life.

Answer. Suicide is not condemned by any

posed, however. to the general tenor Of
Biblical instruction on the subject of life
and duty. Take illustrations: 1. Life is the
grit OF God (Acts, xvii:25), to be held sa-
cred. No one has a right to take it, except
in cases where it has been forfeited by
crime, of which society must judge q Men
are required to live by faith GI Corinthians,
V:O, which includes submission to the di-
vine will, but suicide is rebellion against
God B. He who lives rightly will desire to
live, that he may glorify God by doing good.

dulging in desires and practices contrary
to Righteousness and he should repent L.

need constantly to watch ourselves that
the devil does not get q chance to lull our
consciences to sleep by helping US to cheat

Letter Waits II Years for Traveller

From the Louisville Courier,Journal
II often had heard other people tell how It
felt to receive a message from the dead, :"
said c. NJ. Browning, Cleveland travelling
man. 'but never experienced it myself until
about three months ago.
'One day about three months ago /
walked up to the desk in the old Warner
House at Chillicothe. Ohio, the first time
that had been In the hotel for nineteen
years The moment I scratched my name On
the register I became aware that the CLERKS
behind the counter were cycling me with In
terest.
After closely scrutinizing my signature
on the register one Of them inquired: Are
you the c. M. Browning who stopped at this
hotel In 1887? I scratched my head a mo-
ment and replied that believed had been
a guest there about that time. Well, II
you're the same man. the clerk said,
there's a letter that's been awaiting you
here for some time" asked for the letter.
and after about an hours search In the at
tic Of the hotel they found letter yellow
with age and covered with dust. quickly
recognised the handwriting on the envelope
as that Of my father. who died fifteen years
ago.
81 opened the envelope. The enclosed let
ter contained nothing but information re-
garding family matters. It was written two
years before my fathers death. OF course,
saw my father many times between the
time Of his writing the letter and his death.
but he never mentioned having sent II to
me, and you can see, therefore, why the re-.
ceipt Of it seemed to me like q message
