MUST WAKE UP,

These times call for men who are
not afraid to assert their manhood.
NO man can deny THAT hostile
courts, time-servinc LEGISLATORS,
business paralysis, pauperiSm and
want is rapidly dividing God s
paradise into hostile camps. and
that if labor is to have its own
rights and those OF the people any
longer regarded, il must enter
politics i'll earnest, and see to il
that men who regard the sacred
ness of human rights as paramount
to property rights are representing
the people in the halls Of lc"iS-
la'ion- Not that property rights
arc to be diSregardeu, but that
man Is OF more consequence than
the almighty dollar, and that
property rights should be made
subseIvant to human rights. The,
growing tendency Of our material
lStlc age is to regard property as
everything and man as nothing.
II the lessons Of history teach any
thing it is that we must change
such policy or our doom is sealed.

Odd Doings of Earthworms.

Ever since Darwin wrote his re-
markable book on earthwOrms, the
general public has taken an interest
in these lowly creatures. Every
body has observed thousands of
them on the cement walks during
and after a rain; but the true cause
o. these remarkable wanderers is
not often written about. The fact
is that earthworms can move about
only when the ground and the grass
is wet. The truth of this is easily
shown by placing an eaTthworm on
some dry sand, when the dry grains
will stick to its Shiny skin and make
II helpless.
All living things are endowed with
the instinct to move and spread over
the earth. Human beings, higher
animals, and birds prefer to move
about in fair weather. To the earth
worm and other IowIy creatures like
frogs, salamandeTs, slugs and land
snails, rainy days are the only days
for travelling. When the sun comes
out and dries the roads and the
meadows they withdraw into their
hiding places. AS earthworms can
not see clearly, they crawl about in
an aimless sort of way. If they hap
pen to get on a board or cement
walk. when the sky clears away they
soon die and shriYel up.
When a dry season or winter ap-
pTOaches, the earthworm burrows
deeper into the ground. At a depth
varying from six inches TO two feet
each worm coils up in a little ball.
BY the aid of secretive slime it makes
a case of dirt around itself, and in
this state it remains dormant until
abundant rains or the spring thaw
calls it back TO more active life.

TIE Desert of Sahara.

Tho Desert of Sahara may be de-
Farted: perhaps it is most desert
Ike, great tracts of sand. and not
a soul to be seen, but that is not the
conception that most of US nave.
Personally the writer is convinced
that it is crowded with people all of
them recognizing one another. 1t
must be so, from the number of
rersons we hear eXclaiming: Il
should have known you, my dear, if
I'd met you in the Desert Of Sahara"
They do not say that they ever have
met anyone in the desert, but one
gets the impression that the air here
is particularly favorable for recOgni-
tion-a sort of eff you see it il the
desert it's SC" The place appar-
emily, gives a stamp of reality, proves
it in fact, and that is why so many
women say: 4 wouldn't have be
lieved it, not if I'd seen it in the
Desert of Sahara" We know that
if they would doubt it there, con-
vincing them any where else would
be out of the question. This may
be quite an erroneous idea and only
the result of not travelling. Some
day that desert will have to be found
out about and these minor points
cleared up.
