WOMEN OF
HISTORY,
DEBORAH
REV. THOMAS b. GREGORY
WRITES OF THE GREAT JEW.
ISH WOMAN WHO WHIPPED
HOSTS OF JABIN UNDER THE
GREAT SISERA.

In thinking of the great women
who have from time to time made
their mark upon the world we can
not afford to forget Deborah. About
Deborah we know very little, as is
the case with Homer and Solon and
Shakespeare; but the little that we
know is enough to show that she was
a most extraordinary character, one
of the strong human forces Of her
day.
When Deborah reached Woman
hood her people were in a bad plight,
their leaders we're incompetent, wis
dom seemed to have quite deserted
them, and th~ir case looked almost
forlorn.
At this juncture Deborah took
charge of things, md, in the absence
of other leaders, resolved to take
upon herself the task of straighten-
ing things out. She became Judge
of Israel, governor, ruler, and what
she said went"
Up in the North dwelt Jabin, King
of the Cananites, who, for twenty
years, had been nightly depressing
the children of Israel, riding
through them with his "chariots of
iron" devastating their fields, and
playing havoc generally. To dispose
of Jabin was, therefore, the great
business that Deborah wished to
have attended to.
So from under her palm trees she
ordered her leading captain, Barak,
to appear before her. Barak pre-

SHIPPED
A CARLOAD
OF BABIES
NEW ORLEANS TAKES FIRST
SHIPMENT MADE FROM NEW
YORK AND LITTLE WAITS
ARE FOUND GOOD HOMES.

1t is law of trade that the sur
plus of any useful product originate
ing in one place shall be shipped to
another where the supply is not
equal to the demand.
Not long since :. carload OF babies
was shipped from New York to
New Orleans, and reports show that
the arrival of the pathetic cargo at
the Crescent City produced mild
sensation. There was a lively de-
mand for great many more babies
than we're on the manifest. In fact,
only the wants Of those were sup
piled who had bargained in advance
for one of those little bits Of
humanity.
They were waits from some of the
institutions Of New York, their par
entage unknown. The clamor of the
New Orleans women for them was
sufficient evidence. that they were
going into homes where they will be
appreciated and be sure of gentle
care and guidance. They were ali
so small and helpless that they will
never know that their foster parents
are not the ones who brought them
into the world--and, with the fair
chance which will be offered them,
a large percentage will doubtless
develop into useful men and women.
But for these shipments, which
are constantly going on, the public
institutions Of New York could not
contain or care for the regular ar
rivals of infants that are abandoned
or who are left orphans. It is
fortunate, therefore, that there are
homes in other parts Of the country
into which the poor little waits and
strays may be taken.
It also shows how nature balances
the scale so that If one unnatural or
unfortunate mother abandons her
child, another with a longing for the
motherhood which has been denied
her will take 1t and care for It as
her own.-spokane Inland Herald.

several theories were framed as
to the probable reason of his being
there. One is that he came in on a
passenger train and wandered in the
wrong direction IN search of the de-
pot, and accidentally stumbled into
the pit. Another is that possibly his
mind was temporarily unbalanced; /;
others of less apparent plausibility
are advanced. 1t is thought how
ever, by the physicians that he will
recover his senses and be able to ex-

At the hospital today he gives lit
tie evidence of recovery though it
is not impossible for him to live. He

TO GET RID OF
DANDELION PEST

A we'll known authority on field
crops and the proper preparation of
the soil has this recommendation to
make in the interests of those who
have the dandelion pest to contend
with:
THE most effective and practic-
able method of clearing a dandelion
infested lawn is by the use of iron
sulphate applied as a spray. The
writer has succeeded with three ap-
plications in entirely killing all
plants of this common lawn pest
without injuring the grass. A por-
tion of lawn so badly infested that
hardly anything but dandelions was
visible year ago is now without a
single plant and the grass has thick
ened a great deal in consequence.
"a solution of copperas or iron
sulphate made by dissolying at the
rate of one and a fourth pound Of
the salt in a gallon of water should
be applied to the lawn with a spray
pump so as to wet every plant 1t
win not do to use a common
sprinkler. The solution must be put
on in the form of fine spray ap-
piled with some force to be most ef-
fective. A common bucket spray
pump, or even a hand atomizer, for
very small areas. Is suitable. provid-
ing It makes a fine, forcible spray.
10 not try to hit the dandelions only
but cover every square inch Of the
lawn. In this way all Seeding
plants will be killed Put on a sec
ond application in two TO three
weeks and a third and possibly a
fourth late in summer IL any of the
dandelions start into growth. The
grass viii be b.ackened for short
time but soon recovers and after a
watering and moving Will appear
darker green then before. Do not
allow the solution TO get on cement
or stone walks as It produces a
rather permanent yellow stain"

sented himself, and she informed
him that he must gather together an
army of 10000 men at once and go
up and annihilate King Jabin.
Barak was weak sister," a "tin
soldier" rather than a real one, and
at the thought of Jabin and his
1900 chariots of IRON he began to
shake in the knees, and to Deborah
he said: II will go If you will go
with me, but If you will not so
neither will l." Not to be baked by
a coward, Deborah replied: 81
will 60"
The 10000 men were raised and
headed for the country of Jabin, un-
der the leadership, we may be sure,
not Of the chicken-hearted Barak,
but of the fearless Deborah.
A traitor, running ahead, in
formed Jabin of the approach of the
children OF Israel, and when they
got there Jabin was ready for them
with a larger army and all his
dreaded chariots.
Barak fairly shook in his shoes
when he saw the enemy lined up be-
fore him near Mount Tabor, but
Deborah, Strengthening herself and
shaking her long, black hair, her
eyes flashing fire and every feature
of her strong face firmly knit for the
battle, cried out to the captain of
Israel: Cup! for this is the day in
which the Lord hath delivered
sisera into thine hands!"
The order was instantly obeyed,
and Israel, electrified by the fire of
Deborahs soul, swept the enemy
from the field like so much chaffl
Jabins hosts were crushed, his
great captain, Sisera, ran from the
field like a whipped cur, to die a
few days later at the hands of Jael,
and Deborah's people were rid of
their oppression.
For forty years after the victory
that Deborah's skill and courage
won for her people they were privil-
eyed to sit under their vines and
under their fig trees with none to
molest them or make them afraid.
Upon getting home after the great
triumph over their old enemy, De-
borah, who was poet and singer,
as well as judge and warrior, COM
posed a wonderful song of rejoicing
which, with Barak, she sang before
the people.
The song will be round In the
fifth chapter of Judges. 1t is not a
tender song, but it is powerful, max
ing you think of a big storm OF
thunder and lightning, and, in its
way one of the sublimest things to
be found in the whole range of the
worlds literature.

Gently had no end of fun at a hotel
while breakfasting with some college
friends
Having a surplus quantity Of
liquid air along he carried to the
dining room pint Of it enclosed in
the wonderful Dewar bulb.
A rare steak was among the
things ordered, and the same was
soon on the table before Wizard
Patty who, while the waiter was
bringing the coffee, poured little
liquid air over the steak, quickly
freezing it as hard as rock.
Waiter, where's the steak I or
dered? And what is this you've
brought me?" said Mr.. Patty, tap
ping the adamantine piece of COW
with his knife, while well-assumed
air of indignation masked his coun-
tenance.
"I d-don't kn-know, boss, the
waiter stammered: "I d-didn't DIDO
it," and he started for the head
waiter, who quickly appeared.
docs your hotel usually serve
steak this way?" and Mr.. Patty
picked up the meat between two
fingers and struck it with knife,
causing it to ring like bell.
"No-I don't-perhaps it's that
fool of cook; he's new man. I'll
find out what it MEANS" and the
head waiter hurried with the icy
beef to the kitchen, where consterna-
tion reigned for a while.
Mr.. Patty unobserved turned a
little liquid from his bottle into the
tumbler of water, which being near
ly 400 degrees warmer than the
liquid air, the latter was caused to
quickly evaporate and what looked
like steam" arose from the tumbler,
Waiter, 1 didn't ask you for hot
water; please bring me a glass of
ice water"
By the time the astonished waiter
had brought this the water in the
first tumbler was nearly frozen
solid, ice bulging above the tumbler's
rim, glass and ice both chilled to
about 800 degrees below zero.
Now there is too much ice in
this glass; put in little water
please" said the professor, passing
the iceberg to the waiter who eyed
him suspiciously, but took the tum-
bier in his hand without first look
ing at it. When he beheld the ice
his eyes opened wide and his jaw
dropped as though it had a ball
bearing hinge. Another opening and
another drop quickly followed-the

held causing him to give a yell that
