over $50 years ago Francisco Vas
quez de Coronado and his hosts of
Spanish soldiers of fortune estab-
lished the first military post in this
portion of America and planted the
banner of Santiago, claiming the
whole country for the Spanish
crown.
The climate of this portion of New
Mexico in September and October IS
most delightful. Do not be afraid IF
hot weather. The greatest surprise
you will have will be in the climatic
conditions. You will sleep under
blankets every night of your stay,
and the days will be the October DAYS
of the north, and when you leave US
for your eastern or northern homes
you will say that the land of sun
shine has a winter or sum-
mer, fall or spring, day or night, IN
sunlight, moonlight or starlight the
most delightful in all the world

Three Times and out.

In American political history four
three times. One of these, however,
John Quincy Adams. was not candi-
date on one of the occasions when he re-
ceived a single vote from u presidential
elector. That leaves three nominees
who three times made a fight for the
presidency, says the Kansas City Star
Henry Clay, In 1924. received thirty
seven electoral votes and was the low
man OF the four candidates. The elec.
ton was thrown into the House, where
1t went to John Quincy Adams. Eight
years later Clay. as the candidate of
Jackson's opponents, got only forty-nino
electoral votes. Again, In 1914, he
made an unsuccessful race against
Polk, receiving l05 votes to his oppo-
nents 170. Van Buren, was elected
President In 1896. He was nominated
and defeated by Harrison in 1910, and
was an unsuccessful candidate for a
third party in 1915 when Taylor won,
Cleveland, after losing in his second
race, won In the third in 1892
OF all these candidates the only one
successful In the third appeal who had
already served one term. and even
when defeated In the electoral college
had had plurality of the popular vote
over Harrison. These precedents have
certain historical interest.

SHORT METER SERMONS.

Cash cannot buy contentment.
stolen sermons sound sweet to the

Happiness never is found by running
after pleasure.
A false prophet has his eye on the

A little care for others is worth a
lot of prayer for them,
No man happens to stub his toe Oh

Some sheep sigh for cactus as soon
as they get in the green pastures.
You cannot prove your grit by throw

TREES POISON GRASS.

1t is a matter of common observation
that grass does not grow so well Gloss
to trees rs in the open. Experiments in
this country and England have shows
that the deleterious effects of the near
neighborhood of grass and trees are mu-
tual. The trees suffer as well as the
grass. This is especially true of fruit
trees.
The cause is ascribed to the excretion
of the trees, on the one hand, of sinh.
stances poisonous to the grass, and by
the grass, on the other hand, of sub-
stances poisonous to the trees.
1t thus appears that the failure os
grass TO grow well near trees should not
be ascribed to too much shade, nor 70
the exhaustion by the tree roots of tho
food supply needed by the grass-Balti-

THE LITTLE WOODEN BARREL
Turned Out in This Country in Millions
and Sold All Over the World.

Among the all but endless variety of
things of wood produced in American
factories are little wooden barrels. They
are turned out of white Birch and come
in many sizes, from tiny affairs an inch
and a half high up to barrels 10 inches
high
The biggest of them are turned with
a hand manipulated tool, but those rang
ing from inches downward are turned
each with a cutting tool having an edge
so formed that it turns the barrel all at
once. They set a block of wood in the
lathe and adjust the cutting tool and it
turns the barrel into shape complete as
quickly as a man turning with a hand
tool could have turned one of the hoops
on 1t; and on the smallest barrels one
man can run three or four machines.
These little barrels are sold in the
aggregate in great numbers, millions of
them yearly. A single tack manufacture
ing concern buys them IN carload lots,
1000 gross, or 2SS,O00 barrels at time.
Great numbers are uned by confection-
ers. who fill with them with candy and
they are used to contain bottle of per-
fumery.
Many are sold to be given away at
fairs or in other ways, being filed with
a sample of a staple product of the re-
gion, perhaps of flour, or il might be Of
sugar. Many of them are made with
a slot cut in one end, or head, through
which coins can be dropped the little
barrels in this form being used for saw
ings banks, or given out by Sunday
school teachers TO their pupils to make
collections in for some specific purpose.
Individual purchasers buy the little bar
rels to use for button boxes, and great
numbers of them are sold for toys.
So in this country there are used mil
lions of them annually, and for all the
various uses to which the little barrels
are put they are exported in large num-
bers to countries all over the world.

Kissing like a sullen geyser, the great
puma mother crouches with flaming
eyes. Ridge Of her tawny back brush
ed up in rage, tail a-switch, steel SIN
ews rigid beneath soft skin, she glared
at her four cubs in the cage corner.
A fluffy ball of spotted fur sprawled
on unsteady legs across toward her.
Out shot mighty fore paw; the baby
was hurled suddenly back among his
covering brothers and sisters.
NASTY temper" / remarked to the
keeper HAS she been long like that?'

his head in anxiety. II don't like it.
I'll have to separate them, l fear"
The unnatural mother commenced
pacing her prison, sparring yiclously
at her offspring In passing. Three
huddled together in pitiful heap, but
one stood up and defied her. A Jungle
terror In miniature, his tiny rage was
magnificent. Tensely alert before his
trembling mates, he shifted warily to
meet each blow, lodging, splitting, strik-
ing out an awkward paw at the great
thrusts.

short suggestions.

Boil six peach kernels in a quart
of milk to be used for custard. 1t will
improve the flavor.
Keep a pair of mittens made from
heavy white cotton flannel to slip on
when hanging out clothes.
To polish looking glass first rub
it with buster wrung out of cold
water and dipped in whiting and then
polish with dry cloth.
Turnips boiled in their jackets like
beets are much better than when
pared. Adding a little sugar to the
water will correct any bitterness.
Heat a lemon thoroughly before
squeezing and you will obtain nearly
double the quantity Of juice that you
would if it had not been heated
As soon as a salt ham or tongue is
cooked remove it from the boiling wa
ter to a pan of cold water for a few
seconds. This will loosen the skin,
which may be easily peeled of.
Sprinkle mint with granulated su-
gar when preparing mint sauce and it
will chop more easily. Try adding a
few mint leaves TO the dish of baked
beans. An epicure also recommends
serving mint sauce with spinach.
Candles win burn slowly and steadily
through the evening ii they are kept
on he ice ali day. Save the candle
eEGs, melt, add an equal quantity Of
tur9entine. aud you will have a good
polish for floors and oilc'cth

THEY GROW
Coed Humor and CheerfuIness from
Right Food.


Right Food.
Cheerfulness is like sunlight. 1t dis
pels the clouds from the mind as sun
light chases away the shadows of
night.
The good humored man can pick up
and carry off load that the man with
crouch wouldn't attempt to lift.
Anything that interferes with good
health is apt to keep cheerfulness and
good humor in the background. A
Washington lady found that letting cof-
fee alone made things bright for her.
She writes:
-Four years ago / was practically
given up by my doctor and was not ex-
pected to live long. My nervous sys-
TEN was in a bad condition.
"But I was young and did not want
to die, so / began to look about for the
cause of my chronic trouble. | used to
have nervous spells which would ex-
haust me and after each spell it would
take me days before l could sit up in
a chair.
Il became convinced my trouble was
caused by coffee. | decided to stop 1t
and bought some Postum.
1.-The first cup, which l made accord
Ing to directions, had a soothing effect
on my nerves and l liked the taste.
For time i nearly lived on Postum
and ate little food besides. l am to-
day healthy woman.
MY family and relatives wonder II

years ago, when l could do no WORK
on account of nervousness. Now | am

months old l am so busy that | hard

health.

Christian psychology is religious
therapeutics and applied Christianity.
1t is differentiated from Christian Sci
ence in several particulars, while 1t in
rludes the law under which every cure
claimed to have been wrought by Chris
tian Science is effected.
1t clearly recognizes the reality OF
the mind and the body and the insep-
araGIo relation existing between them
while connected With the human organ
ism. Second, 1t afflrms most emphati-
calIy the value OF anatomy physiology,
bacterioIogy, histology and the like, In
the progress of the race, as well as that
of psychology. The practical bearing of
psychology in the treatment of disease
has come from the increasing light
which psychology has thrown and still
throws upon the human frame. Third,
it maintains that there is a funda-
mental distinction between functional
and organic diseases. The former In
cludes the multiplied forms OF mental
and nervous disorders which are d.
rectly amenable to psychological and
religious influences. The organic In
cludes those In which important
changes have taken place In the bodily
structure. Among these maladies may
be named cancer. malignant tumors,
tuberculosis, diphtheria, scarlet fever,
smallpox, and the like These troubles
require surgical aid and the applica-
ton OF material remedies.

lifting aid that can possibly be afforded
to the mind or soul In such cases. No
psychical action, for example, can take
the place of food to build up the ply
steal system. But It's influence is pro-
found in aiding all the forces of diges-
ton. Christian psychology does not
consider that it limits the power of God
remedies for material Ills, 1t is the
way He has chosen to accomplish His
ends.
Christian psychology differs from
Christian Science in asserting the alb
solute necessity for the work of the
physician. 1t is mainly through the
medical fraternity that the former
plaques which scourged humanity and
destroyed millions of lives In a decade
have been stamped out. They have
saved millions of lives and increased
their comfort and efficiency by teaching
the laws of sanitation and hygiene and
have assuaged human and animal suf-
fering by the discovery of anaesthetics
In former ages the priests of the Greek
church and the Latin church united In
themselves the function of the physi-
clan. The differentiation of work In
later years has separated them The
alarming prevalence Of nervous diseases
in our age has brought them more
closely together. They are beginning
to cooperate heartily with one an
other, as 1t Is seen how great a part
the clergyman ought to perform in spe-
officially ministering to minds dis
eased." The lectures | have given for
twelve years to hundreds of graduate
physicians on mental physiology and
psyche therapeutics have brought me
into intimate and delightful relation
ship with my brethren of the medical
profession and have led me to put my
own teachings into practice in connec-
ton with the church.
Christian psychology differs from
Christian Science in not being a new
religious cult It simply aims to form
societies for health and happiness In
the various churches and communities
Shht hhuJ hSSAAC AliVAhs II LltSl SlEHuu-
ously teaches that there is not the
slightest need to deplete or disrupt ex-
listing church organizations or the fam
lily or to take members from their own
churches In order to get everything that
can be obtained in psychlcal and di-
vine healing. 1t holds that the pastor
of church, man so frequently of
college and university training, one who
is conversant with the deepest things
Of the soul, is the man best qualified
to apply the great principles of healing
TO the members of his flock and 70
work hand in hand with the physician
in so doing.
1t further differs from Christian Sci
ence, In so far as ii is a church move
ment, that 1t offers to the poor and ths
needy its help in this direction as IL
others without the faint of CONNER
cialism.
Christian psychology comprehends al
that is distinctlvely known as faltl
healing, divine healing. mental healing
or any other form Of psyche therapy

are diyersities of operations. but tn,
