Speaking of doubling things, says
the Epworth Herald, reminds me of
story once heard of little girl whose
name was Susie. This particular Susie
had habit of saying "g-o.o-d, good"
and w-o-o-d, wood" and she used to
look SO funny when she spelled words
in that fashion that, like Mary's little
lamb, she always caused a commotion
in the schoolroom.
So one day the teacher said: "Susie,
dear, you mustn't say good. Say
g-double-o-d. Try to remember, my
child"
Just then they came to the old fam
liar phrase in the regulation first reader:
Cup, up, Jane! The sun is risenn' 1t
was little Susie's turn. Looking up
with cute smile to catch the look of
sympathy and approval she felt sure
she merited for remembering the rnle
of doubling things" said she, with
out even sign of hesitation: "Double
up, Jane! The sun has risenW

If the performances of our latest
title-hunting American girls and
their disreputable suitors don't open
the eyes of those who dearly love
lord, nothing will. Hitherto it
has at least been possible to feel
sorry for the deluded young woman
who was caught BY the bait of a
title. But recent occurrences have
showed that some of them are far
beneath any deserving Of sympathy,
and indeed almost on level. with
the noble schemers and scoundrels
whom their money attracts. The
whole business is as revolving to
self-respecting Americans as it can
possibly be to thoughtful and self
respecting Europeans.

THE apologists for stock ex-
change gambling must face some
weighty arguments against their
case. In the last seven months it
is estimated that over 500, ,ooo, 900
has been wasted on the New York
Stock Exchange. At least fifteen
suicides have been reported since
the gamblers panic" of last Octo-
Der. Uncounted millions have
been stolen by stock gamblers and
swallowed up by the mad, terrific
game. 1t may be that the stock
exchange performs a legitimate
public service, but even SO it costs
100 much money, in honor, and in
life. Better to be without the con-
veniences of the stock exchange
than to enjoy them at a fearful
price.

Live Stock Market.

Denver Union Stock Yards, May is
Offerings of cattle were liberal here
last week and demand very good.
Prices, however, were lower on ac-
count of big declines at eastern mark
cts. Steers We're off Is to 20 cents but
good cows did not decline more than
dime, the medium kinds being off 10
to 20 cents. Good feeders and stockers
closed 10 to Is cents lower while the
plain and common steers were off Is to
25 cents. The demand for feeders and
stockers is light at all markets at pres
ent as farmers are rushed with spring
work and have no time to come to the
markets. Beef steers sold mostly at
$5.40 to $5.s5 last week, with some
choice western slope grain fed steers at
$6.10 on Monday. A bunch of North
Park hay feds brought $3.50. Some
choice northern Colorado heifers
brought $5.15 and bulk of good cows
brought $4.60 to $500, some choice
North Park hay feds going at the latter
price as well as several punches of
northern Colorado pulp feds. Fair to
good COWS sold at $3.50 to $3.50. Veal
calves were considerably lower with
good ones selling mostly at $3.50 to
$500. Good to choice feeders and
stockers sold at $40 to $500 and fair
to good at $3.50 to $4.35 with poorer
stuff from 1915. Receipts today 4,0OO
a good many of them southerners.
Prices were lower at all markets, the
decline here being 10 to Is cents. Some
fancy steers fed as an experiment by
w. q. Harris brought S5.S5 to $3.50.
Sheep receipts were light but de-
mand also limited at all markets.
Prices rule little lower. Good ewes
sold at $3.50, yearlings at $3.50, lambs
at 1878 and spring lambs at S7.25 to
$7.50.-W. N. Fulton.

Help us, o God, always to be hope

of the promise which says, "He will
strengthen then the heart that hopes
in him.; but help us not to indulge in
too fond hopes nor to be too easily elat-
clearly as it is, and be ready to accept
courageously whatsoever thou sendest
us. Help us to accept all our joys as
thy blessings, all our duties as thy COM
mands, and our sorrows as of thine
appointment, and help us to believe
that thou wilt turn even that which
seems to harm us, into everlasting good

Poisonous Plants.

1t is now time to begin to think of
poisonous plants. The I,arkspur is
already good size; Death Camus is at
least three weeks ahead ofgrass. These
two plants, as well as the Loco weed,
are dangerous early in the season. Re-
member that the only way to avoid
the disastrous results of Loco Weed is
to keep stock away from it. The Lark
spur seldom kills either horses, cattle
or sheep, except during rain or snow
storm. At times the Death Camus is
very deadly; at other times it does not
seem to iniure stock.
There is good chemical antidote,
both for Larkspur and Death Camus.
The difficulty is in the Inconvenience
Of carrying this remedy around over
the range until the poisoned animal
happens to be discovered.
The antidote is as follows: Thirty
grazing of potassium permangsn9te and
All equal quantity of aluminium sulfate
dissolved in quart of water. Turn
the animals head uphill, and give the
mixture at one dose. This remedy is
very sure and will save practically all
animals.
In the case of I.arkspur poisoning it
is advisable to tap the animal high up
on the left side, into the first stomach,
in order to allow the gas to escape in
case it is badly bloated.

Our heavenly Father does not sup
ply our needs in advance. He wishes
us to learn the lesson of daily depen-
dence on him, like the child which is
safe as long as it holds its fathers hand,
and no longer. We are not told to pray
for full storehouses, for abundance laid
up against some future need, but only
that to-day's wants may be satisfied.
"Give us this day our daily bread"
1t is not an oversight that no mention
is made of to-morrow's supplies.

IT is fortunate for the Democrat.


IT is fortunate for the Democrat
ic party that the New York dem
ocracy is never taken as a good
example Of party principals and
conduct. This years activities of
those in control of the Democratic
machine would be a disgrace 10 any
body of men appealing for public
support. and certainly are a libel
on democracy as a political creed.
Whatever opinions may be held as
to Mr.. Bryan's availability, New
York Democrats have given him
more good advertising by attempt
ing to ignore him than any enthu-
siastic endorsement would have
afforded him.
