Moses a Great Renorter.

Addressing the Ministers alliance
of Kansas on THE Faith of Journal
ist," Walter Williams, dean of the
school of journalism at Missouri uni
versity, spoke of the similarity of the
Bible to the modern newspaper.
'The best journalist with whose
work l am acquainted" said Mr.. Will
liams, was Moses. He was the first
great editor. You plead for the pub
lication of only the good and beauti-
full in your favorite daily newspaper.
1t was an earlier people, not wiser
one, who cried: 'Prophesy unto us
smooth things
'In one of the five books Moses ed
tied the great editor gave more Grim
inal news, and that more graphically,
than to-day's newspapers would dare.
For example, the reports of the DISC
bedience of Adam. the drunkenness of
Noah, the falsehoods of Abraham and
the iniQuity of the city of Sodom."

Living Taruet Escaped.

A bluejacket had thrilling expert
ence the other day, says the London
Mail. While the Atlantic fleet battle
ships were engaged in firing practice
in the channel the battleship Queen
was towing a target at full speed and
the Venerable was engaged in firing
at this with her three-pounder quick
firers. During the operations an able
seaman named Bailey fell overheard
from the Queen. A lifebuoy was
thrown to him, which he seized, but
he was soon in close proximity to the
rapidly moving target, which struck
the lifebuoy and carried it away. At
the same moment the Venerable fired
her broadside at the target, the sea-
mans fall not having been onticed.
The target was riddled. but Bailey
was fortunately not touched. his es-
cape being regarded as miraculous
one. He was rescued shortly after

American Humor,

Taking for it's text the fact that the
best musical comedies presented in
this country come out of London, an
eastern newspaper bemoans the de-
cline of American humor. 1t is just
complaint. Americans are fond of
humor; but there seems to be little
of it in them now.
No doubt there are humorists of
high quality in this country, but they
are not in the foreground. While
Mark Twain is still interesting, he has
lost the freshness and spontaneity of
an earlier time. Bill Nye is dead.
George Ade is mildly funny, rather
than humorous; the compelling quail
ity of genuine humor is not to be
found in his efforts. Peter Dunno got
much closer to the real thing in Mr.
Dooley; but, then, discourses in dia-
lect on topical themes quickly lose
their pertinence and are soon forgot
ten.
Perhaps the pressure of American
life has been too severe to make pos
sible sustained humor of kind that
would endure. But the time is ripe
for the coming of a great American
humorist; it is ripe, too, for the COM
ing of satirist of the good quality of
Swift or Carlyle.-Seattle Post-Intelli-
gencer.

MUST WAKE CLOCK
ALARM THAT BUT HALF Full
FILLS ITS MISSION.
Mr.. Stoggleton Complains That He
Has to Arise Every Morning to
Shake Timepiece Before 1t
Will Do Its Duty.

"As a rule" said Mr.. Stoggleton,
up the sleeper, but l know of case
in which the sleeper wakes up the
alarm clock.
This clock keeps time all right, but
there's something the matter with its
alarm section so that it doesn't ring
automatically. You can set the alarm
and it will go when the times comes
if you shake it, but not otherwise.
You'd think that anybody owning
clock like that would have it fixed or
throw it away and get another, but for
some reason this owner doesn't do
either. l don't know, but it seems to
me as if he had a sort of friendly
feeling for the clock that thus needs
help. Anyway, he's as kindly to the
old clock as if it was a gentle friend.
He helps it all he can.
Six-thirty is my friends rising
time, and every night when he goes to
bed he winds the clock and sets the
alarm for that hour. He knows it
won't ring, but he doesn't mind about
that. He's a systematic, orderly per-
son, accustomed to rising at fixed
hour, and he would wake at that hour
whether he had an alarm clock or not,
but from long habit he winds the
alarm just the same, and then when
he wakes up in the morning at $50 or
SO he looks to see the exact time.
"It it's five or ten minutes before
half past six he waits till that time
comes, or if it's five minutes past half
past six he reaches out at once to the
convenient table on which the clock
rests and picks it up and shakes it,,
and then bang! bang! bang! goes the
alarm, rattling away in great shape,
and then my friend gets up.
"I think, as 1 said, that he has a
sort of friendly feeling for the old
clock and sort of feels that he must
look after it, and really it seems as
If the clock reciprocated this feeling,
and was saying to him when he has
shaken it out of it's drowsiness and
it starts banging: Why, how do you
do? Good-morning!'
And that may all be very nice, but
still 1 do think that if that was my
clock l should very kindly but very
firmly drop it in the ash can. I'm
naturally of a friendly disposition
myself, but don't think I'd have any
use for an alarm clock that didn't

A Terrible Risk.

Typhoid had broken out in their

They arrived at Quebec by the

MOST PEOPLE Do
NOT KNOW CAUSE
OF THEIR SICKNESS

Does human health depend on one
organ alone? This question is becom-
ing widely discussed since L. T. Coop
er first advanced his theory that the
stomach is the true seat of life and all
health dependent upon it.
Mr.. Cooper, who has met with re-
markable success in the sale of his
new medicine, believes that the stom-
ach is responsible for most sickness,
and that this organ is weak in the
present generation. While discussing
this theory recently, he said: Il am
| asked time and again to tell why my
medicine has made such record
wherever 1 have introduced it. My an
swer always is, because it restores the
stomach to a normal condition No
one will deny that today there are
more half-sick men and women than
ever before. Nothing critical seems
to be the matter with them. They
are just half-sick most of the time.
They don't know really what is the
matter with them. 1 have talked with
| thousands during the past two years,
and few knew indeed what their trou-
BILE was. One said nervousness, another
said kidney trouble, another liver COM
plant, some constipation, or heart
trouble, or lung trouble. Many had
treated, as they called it, for most of
these diseases at different times. A
very common complaint is all run
down. or tired all the time or no
appetite
II know positively that every bit of
this chronic i'll health is caused by
stomach trouble and nothing else.
My New Discovery puts the stomach
In sound condition in about six weeks.
Mighty few people can be sick with a
sound digestion. That is why my medi-
cine is selling at such a tremendous
rate. l have convinced many thou
sands of people that these things are
so, and the number is growing by
leaps and bounds
Among more recent converts to Mr..
Cooper's beliefs is Mrs. Lottie l..
Miner, living on Rural Route No. 2,
Henniker, N. H., who says: Il was in
poor health for six years, from stom-
ach trouble and indigestion. Quite
frequently my stomach was so weak
that it would not retain solid food. I
had vomiting spells every morning, and
was subject to frequent attacks of diz-
ziness. Life became such a burden
that 1 often felt it was not worth the
living. tried everything 1 could hear
of, but found nothing that would af-
ford relief.
For some time l had been reading
of the Cooper remedies, and finally de-
cided to give the New Discovery
preparation trial. After taking the
first bottle, 1 noticed marked i'm
provement. Five bottles made me en-
tirely well. I can eat anything 1 wish,
and have not been troubled with my
stomach since. The dizzy spells dis
appeared long ago.
MY mother, Mrs. Susan Parkins,

and my father have used the Cooper
remedies with splendid results. l will
be glad to answer any personal CORE
spondence in regard to my case"
