/ care to think of, some terrible trag-
edy, of which the death OF Elsie Sigel
is an example.
II believe that the death of Elsie
Sigel was one of those results. The
Organizations that allow this thing to
go on and the parents who allow their
daughters to be drawn into this ter
rible net of temptation are the ones
who are to blame for the scores Of
heartbreaking tragedies Of which +
have been the witness and the number
of which is daily growing. To me one
of the most shocking of all the de-
velopments of this recent tragedy was
the Anding Of those hundreds of COM
promising letters written to Leon by
white girls from all over the country.
If anything could show the RESULTS Of
this pernicious system, that fact does
it with terrible clearness. The time
has come when something should be
DONE"

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Stomach Worm Disease.

Medicinal treatment is not success
full in stomach worm disease, and
farmers must depend on changing pas
ture to eradicate this pest
Pastures which cannot be cultivated
can be freed by burning and abandon
ing for eighteen months If washing of
material from infested land is pre-
vented.
On premises where calves are lost
in such large numbers each year and
where all the pastures are undoubted-
~ infested it would be advisable to
build small pasture on high ground
that has been under cultivation and UNI
occupied by stock for one or two sea-
sons and through which no Small
streams flow. Calves when weaned
can then be placed ON this free pas
ture and kept there until they are old
enough to withstand attacks of the
parasites, about one year or eighteen
months-South Carolina, Experiment

PERIL IN MISSIONS SYSTEM.
Elsie sieeI Tragedy Attributed to Prac-
tice of Our Girls Teaching Chinese.

Elsie Sigel Tragedy Attributed to Prac-
tice of Our Girls Teaching Chinese.
Declaring that the system of mis-
sions in New York's Chinatown in
having American girls teach Chinese
men is directly responsible for the
death of Elsie Sigel, granddaughter of
General Franz Sigel, whose body was
recently found in the room of William
Leon, Miss Helen F. Clark, director of
the Helen f. Clark mission in New
! York, one of the leading missionaries
in the metropolis, denounced the plan
as source of moral corruption both
to the Chinese and to many of the
young women who teach them. Miss
Clark has an intimate knowledge of
conditions among the Chinese.
Imagine our Young Women's Chris
tian association fitted out with corps
of young and, for the most part, at
tractive girls as teachers said she,
with a teacher to each pupil, for the
purpose of teaching some special SUBJ
iect like English. Imagine daily and
intimate association such as that sys-
tenn would lead to going on for month
after month and even year after year
and imagine the reputation the asso-
citation would have in a short time
under those conditions. The case in
our Chinese missions, with their large
majority of women teachers, is sim
liar, except that 1t is rendered infinite
ly worse and more dangerous on ac-
count of the traditional ideas, a hun
bred generations old, held by the Chi
nese regarding women.
SIN China any social intercourse be-
tween the sexes is a thing unheard of.
Take young Chinese and suddenly
throw him into daily and intimate con-
tact with an attractive American girl
and consider the effect, as have done
to my sorrow for many years. The
Chinese reverence learning, and in
point OF education most Of them are
mere children beside our girls. AS
soon as the first shock Of being allowed
to SO much as speak to q woman is
over they awaken to another concep-
ton Of women, and they almost fan
down and worship those girls as SUI
perior beings. There follows the APP
parently harmless Irritation, the fitting
of the man or the possible lowering of
his conception OF American women BY
some indiscretion on the part Of the
girl OF. as happens in more cases than

erly handled with care and cleanliness
the infection is apt to cause loss OF
the entire quarter. Thoroughly wash
the part in an antiseptic solution; then
dip teat plug into healing ointment
and insert it, allowing same to remain

manner closure can be overcome in a
very simple and satisfactory way. A

can possibly be avoided, as there is
much danger of injecting the entire

Vigor In the Flock.

The period of usefulness of good
sheep varies much with the breed
as well as with individuals OF the
same breed. Some become unproft-
able at three or four years Of age,
others at ten or twelve or even older.
Whenever a sheep begins to show
signs of weakness, evidence ex dis
ease or lack Of thrift and vigor It
should be removed from the dock.
"All is lost that is poured into a
crashed DISH" all is lost that 1t put
into an unthrifty sheep-worse than
lost often, for a diseased sheep may
do great damage to the fiock. and
when one loses thrift it loses its nat
ural power to resist disease. Nature
has marked such one for destruction,

DAVID AND CO..
[|ATH'' BY SUNDAY
WELL KNOWN EVANGELIST
GIVES HIS VERSION OF THE
FAMOUS CONFLICT - SAYS
DAVE SOAKED GOLIATH ON
LAMPS.

Billy Sunday, the old National
Lacquer who has made quite a repu-
tation for himself as an evangelist,
has stirred Spokane, and the daily
accounts of his services are read here
with a great deal Of interest. 1t is
safe to say that no portion of the
Spokane papers are of as much gen.
eral interest here as that containing
the Sunday sermons.
At Spokane, Sunday told the story
of David and Goliath according to his
own ideas, and it made a big hit.
Here is the story in Sundays own
words:
"And SO David's pa came up to
him where he was working in the
field and says: Dave, better go up
to the house. your mas anxious
about the other boys fighting in the
army, hasn't heard from them by
phone or anything, and she'd like
you should go look them up So
Dave hops on a trolley and hikes
to the front and stays there with his
brothers over night.
"In the morning old Goliath comes
out in front of the Philistines and
dares the Israelites to fight him.
Who's that big stiff making all the
big talk out there?' asks Dave.
Why. that's the big cheese, the
big noise,' says his brothers.
why don't some one soak him
one?' asks Dave.
We've all got cold feet says the
Israelites.
"'You fellows make me tired,
says Dave, and he pixies out to the
brook, gets four pebbles in his shep-
herds sack, slams one at Goliath
and soaks him in the coco between
the lamps. Goliath goes to the mat,
takes the count, and Dave pokes him
in the stats, chops off his block and
the whole Philistine gang skidooed.""

The little steamer North Star, due

There is a great deal Of ice In the
river now and it depends altogether
on the weather as to when river ser

spring and still few days of thaw-

Guy c. Browne, of the Columbia
Valley bank. came in last night from
Spokane and will be here for a cou-
pie of days. His little son, Carl, has
been here for the past week visiting
with the young sons Of DR.. and Mrs.
A. T. Kaupp.
Mr.. Browne says that Wenatchee
always looks good, especially good
after his short absence. He thinks
that this is going to be the banner
year in a business way for the city.
Last year was the best year in the
history of the Columbia Valley
bank" said Mr.. Browne, and a bank
is simply the reflection of the gen.
eral business conditions OF the COM
munity. The past year opened with
a panicky condition and yet 1t proved
the best in the history Of the val
ley. The present year opens very
differently and I believe that we will
be making history here during the
coming season. Wenatchee Is going
