VICAR HAS STRANGE CALL

Rev. Thomas Eddleston, formerly
rector of High Roding, Essex, Eng,
recently commenced his duties as
vicar of Braintree, and in an address
from the pulpit explained why he had
transferred from the one living to the
other, thereby sacrificing about $500
a year.
He said before he knew that the
Braintree living was vacant he woke
up In the middle of the night at High
Roding, and heard strange passage
of Scripture ringing in his ears:
take this child away and nurse 1t
for me, and I will give thee thy
wages"
The vicar said he thought there
must be child in distress at High
Roding, and he searched about the
parish for two days to see If there
was anyone being neglected, but he
could find no one. Then he received
the offer of the living at Braintree,
and regarding it as a direct call from
God. he accepted. as he considered it
his duty to undertake the nursing OF
the children of Braintree.

WOMAN RUNS A MOUSE FARM

II Why is the average woman more
afraid of a mouse than of her hus-
bands wrath over her milliner's bill?
Why at the sight Of a wee, inoffensive
rodent, will she fly screaming to
table or chair to the accompaniment
Of reckless display of hosiery? And
can anybody under the sun explain
why the nervy young woman who will
grapple with and capture burglar
and turn him over to the police, Will
pull of a lovely fainting fit IL anybody
shouts, Look at the mouse!"
Absolutely for the first time in be-
frilled womandom, real, live and nor
NAL woman has advanced to the firing
line with answers to the foregoing
question. This daring woman is Miss
Abbie q. C. Lathrop, the owner OF a
successful mouse farm at CRANKY,
Mass. She raises yearly from 5000 to
10000 rats and mice for medical lab
oratories.
"Woman's fear of the mouse" says
Miss Lathrop, Il believe dates back to
the Garden of Eden. There can be no
possible doubt about it, for as far back
as / have been able to go in the his
tory of the world, women have hoped,
skipped and jumped at the sight Of a
mouse"
In her rodent family, Miss Lathrop
has mice of ten different colors and
20 combinations of color. White Is
/ ordinary and black is not startling.
lint when 1t comes to cream-colored
mice or orange mice, one is surprised.

tuberculosis in the Prisons.

The fact that 100000 prisoners are
discharged from the jails and prisons
Of the country annually, and that from
10 to Is per cent. of them have tuber-
culosis, makes the problem of provid-
ing special places for their treatment
while they are confined serious one.
So important is the problem that the

INFECTION IN THE PRISON
the Spread of the Scourge
OF tuberculosis.

Only twenty-one prisons in fifteen
states and territories have provided
special places for the treatment of
their tuberculosis prisoners. These in
situations can accommodate, however,
only 800 patients. In three-fourths OF
the major prisons and in practically
all the jails Of the country the tuber-
culous prisoner Is allowed freely to
infect his fellow prisoners, very few
restrictions being placed upon his
habits. When the congregate mode OF
prison life is considered, the danger OF
infection becomes greater than in the
general population. New York and
Massachusetts are the only states
where any systematic attempt has
been made to transfer all tuberculous
prisoners to one central institution.
The largest prison tuberculosis hospi'
tai Is in Manila, where accommoda'
lions for 200 prisoners are provided
The next largest Is Clinton prison hos
pital in New York, which provides for

Tilted LOVER GOT REVENGE

A young Swiss couple at Davos
were to have been married shortly,
but the girl Tilted her lover because
he had shaved off his beard. Though
he pleaded for several weeks she re-
fused to see him or reply to his let

all the love letters he had received
from his fiancee on the walls of her
residence. In the morning a crowd
collected before the house and was
busily engaged in reading the letters
when the fiancee discovered the affair."
While a gendarme kept back the
crowd, the servants, armed with
brushes, soap and water, scrubbed off

JUST A NATURAL MISTAKE

Gussie was knock-kneed, angular
and round-shouldered. He had ter

making something Of a hit at the

as elegant as his figure was unlovely.
With fast-beating heart he stepped
jauntily from his automobile outside
the town hall, where the ball was be-

"Great Christopher Columbus!" he
,gasped as he regarded Gussie.

tails. "Chawles the First, my dear fell

KEEP BABY'S SKIN CLEAR

Few parents realize how many es-
Unable lives have been embittered
and social and business success pre-
vented by serious skin affections
which so often result from the neglect
OF minor eruptions in infancy and
childhood. With but little care and
the use of the proper emollients, baby's
skin and hair may be preserved, puri-
fed and beautified, minor eruptions
prevented from becoming chronic and
torturing, disfguring rashes, feelings,
irritations and chafings dispelled.
To this end, nothing is so pure, SO
sweet, so speedily effective as the con-
slant use of Cuticura Soap, assisted,
when necessary, by Cuticura Ointment.
Send to Potter Drug & Chem. Corp,

PRAYER CAUSED LIBEL SUIT

III If one might not be irreverent in
saying so, there is strong humorous
davor in an extraordinary libel suit.
as which Rev. R. Fisher, pastor of the
Presbyterian church at Neoga, ILL.,, has
been sued for $4,000 by member Of
his congregation, named Jacob
stroll. The cause Of the trouble was
prayer: 20, Lord, make Brother
Rtrohl better man; cause him to
nav his debts and have him cease
hackbiting," fervently duplicated the
minister in front of startled congre-
S%Ation. Other faults" of the parish
$Yser were recited in the prayer, and
33fvine interference was asked for, to
/ Sectify them. Naturally, Jacob re-
Sented such special mention, and re-
Ssested the minister either to make
ent,ther prayer and sort of clear his
character before Providence, or be
sued for libel.

Where Millions Are Entombed.

The catacombs at Rome were the
burial places of the early Christians.
They are about $50 miles in extent and
are said to have contained 100000
bodies. During the prosecutions OF the
Christians under Nero and other Ro-
man emperors the catacombs were
used for hiding places. Under Diocle-
tian the catacombs were crowded with
those for whom there was no safety
in the face of the day. The art Of the
catacombs is unique and most inter
esting. Simple designs are etched IN
the slabs which seal the tombs. Now
and then are small chapels whose
paintings are to be- found. All are
Bible Illustrations, so that the cata-
combs may be said to be a pictorial
Bible in effect-The Christian Herald.
