Well, What If He Didn't?

For many years Dr. Francis L. Pat
ton, ex-president of Princeton univer-
sity, wore side whiskers. Whenever
he suggested shaving them there was
division of opinion in the family
One morning he came into his wife's
room, razor in hand, with his right
cheek shaved smooth.
How do you like it, my dear?" he
asked. 'If you think it looks well,
will shave the other side, too."-

Sheer white goods, in fact, any fine
wash goods when new, owe much of
their attractiveness to the way they
are laundered, this being done in a
manner to enhance their textile beau
ty. Home laundering would be equal
ly satisfactory if proper attention was
given to starching, the first essential
being good Starch, which has sufficient
strength to stiffen, without thickening
the goods. Try Defiance Starch and
you will be pleasantly surprised at the
improved appearance of your work.

Obedience.

Prompt and unquestioning obedi-
ence is the corner stone of the foun-
dalton Of success in life. No man can
give orders properly who has not
learned to take them, and save he
serve, no man may rule" 1t will be
found that the men who have won
their way to positions Of power and
responsibility have invariably been
the men who did not reason or argue
or even respectfully represent" but
who promptly did as they were COM
manded without questioning. 1t is
the large man, not the little man, who
recognizes a superior authority.

Predatory Instincts.

The inherited predatory tendency Of
men to seize upon the fruits Of other
peoples labor is still very strong, and
while we have nothing more to fear
from kings, we may yet have trouble
enough from commercial monopolies
and favored industries. marching to
the polls their hordes of bribed retain
ers. Well, indeed, has 1t been said
eternal vigilance is the price of liber-
ty. God never meant that in this fair
but treacherous world in which he has
placed us we should earn salvation
without steadfast labor.-John Fiske.

Museums OF safety and sanitation
are becoming the means of saving
thousands OF lives and will lessen the
economic waste OF accident cases
brought before the courts. A feature
OF such museum will be an expert
mental laboratory in which safeguards
may be perfected for dangers and
processes now without any known de-
vice, and which may become an edu-
cational center for teaching the
science rand preservation of health, in
preventing diseases due to impure
foodstuffs, bad ventilation, occupation

culosis and offensive trades.
There are ten European museums Of
safety and sanitation, located in Ber-

Mastery az III. Air

Mastery of the air" is fearfully
overworked phrase. but every day con-
firms its appropriateness when applied
to the Wright brothers. In contras.
with the long succession of failures,
accidents aRd half-successes which
eliminated in Orville Wright's disas-
trous fight at Fort Myer, the career
of the two brothers ever since has
been an almost unbroken sequence of
victories. A long flight by the Wright
aeroplane Is no longer an event, but
commonplace. The goddess acct
dent has ceased to prosecute them.
Cables and chains no longer part
abruptly, motors don't freeze up or
clog, steering gear works smoothly,
even the winds Of heaven seem to
have refrained from unmannerly gusts
and eddies. 1t is the difference he
tween trial and performance; the leap
from pupilship to mastery. Masters
the two Americans are peculiarly en-.
titled to be called, because they are
so successful in passing on their sec.
rets to their pupils.-New York Even
ing Post,
