THE MOT: AND the BEAM.

We suppose 1t ought to be taken
as a compliment that SO many refer
ences are made to this country by
prominent politicians during the pres
ent ELECTORAL contest in Great Brit
ain. If it is sought to prove that the
imposition Of tariff on foreign COM
modities is good or bad-it does not
matter which-America is taken as
the grand example, and it is curious
to note how our experience can, in
the hands of a skillful debater. be
made to suit either side Of the argu-
ment. If expenditure OH the navy is
urged it is again case of ''look at
America" If greater devotion to
scientific agriculture is advocated,
America furnishes the illustration.
If two-chambered legislature is de-
Tended, the orator once more falls
back on America.
We certainly loom large in the eyes
of our kinsfolk across the ocean. 4
remarkable thing. and one tiattering
to our national vanity. is that the
United States is made to stand for
the whole western hemisphere. When
the word America is used it does not
apply to Canada or Mexico or the
central or southern republics, but
simply to the land Of the stars and
stripes
There is. however. one feature OF
these comparisons and contrasts that
we think we ought to resent. All the
speakers almost without exception,
refer to us as if bounce and bragga-
dQcio, bribery. and corruption. were
our native element. Thus recently

David Lloyd George, in attacking
Mr.. Balfour for raising a navy scare,
said that tail twisting had become a
discredltable practice even in Ameri-
ca, and almost in the same breath he
spoke of ''the most descredited type
of politician in the United States.'
Now, we submit that if, in the mat
ter of graft, we are 10 better, we
certainly are no worse than other
countries. People who live in glass
houses should not throw stones. In
Great Britain it is well known that

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 e Chem. Corp,
sole proprietors, Boston, for their free
32-page Cuticura Book telling all about
the care and treatment of the skin.

The Laymen's Movement.

Our Lord, in Matt. 24:14, uttered
two great prophecies, both of which
at the time seemed almost inconceiv-
able:
1. "This gospel of the kingdom shall
be preached in all the world for wit
ness unto all nations"
2. Then shall the end come"
The first is a remarkable attestation
of our Lords divinity. Who can con-
ceive of mere man, and a Jew, linn
tied in all his thought to the narrow
national outlook of Judaism, with
such a conception of a kingdom Of
fered to all the Gentle nations and
such certainty of declaration as to the
outward sweep of his gospel? And
yet it was not the vision of mere
enthusiast, who optimistically dreams
that all the world is to be converted
to his religion; no, such is his balance
that he plainly foresees and declares
that even to the end of time many
will be in the broad way, few in the
narrow way.-Wm. A. Burch.

coffroth Wins Race, London to Frisco.
James w. Coffroth, fight promoter,
won his bet of $4,000 made with a
member of the National Sporting club
of London that he could reach San
Francisco in ten days from London.
Coffroth had margin of two hours
and forty minutes.
Coffroth, according to agreement,
sent telegram to Eugene Corri, with
whom he had the wager. When he ar
rived at the Oakland pier he was well
coined by a large delegation that
cheered him as he stepped from his car.
The time made by Coffroth is the
fastest ever made from London to San
Francisco over the Atlantic and across
the continent. He made the trip in
nine days, five hours and five minutes.

| THE JOYS OF OTHER DAYS
Writer'S Memory Goes Back to De-
lights of Which the Present Gen.
Grafton Knows Little.

We cheerfully admit that the fur
mace and the hard coal base burner
add whole lot to modern comfort,
but after all they have their draw
backs. For instance, you can't very
well pop corn in either furnace or
base burner. It took those old
fashioned stoves, in which we used to
burn a two-foot length of hickory
wood, for that sort of thing. When
the wood had burned down to glow
ing Goals, we'd open the front door,
rake the Goals down in front and pro-
coed to pop corn. When we get rich
we are going to have one of those old
fashioned stoves put up in our room,
with lot of two-foot seasoned hickory
in the basement, and every now and
then we are going to start fire in
that stove, get good bed of Goals,
and then pop dishpan full of corn,
just as reminder of old days. OF
course, we'll eat the popcorn, not as
reminder of old days, but because we
are awfully fond of pcpcorn.-Yill M.

Not being able to secure free and
untrammeled expression of his opin.
ions on this subject through the regular
reading pages Of the newspapers he
has bought advertising space for this
purpose, just as he Is accustomed to
for the telling Of his Postum STORY, :
and he has thus spent hundreds of
thousands of dollars in denouncing
trades-unionism.
AS q result of Posts activities the
people now know whole lot about
these organizations: how they are
honeycombed with graft, how they OBJ

He employs no union labor, SO they
can not call out his men, and he defies

The latest means of getting Post is
the widespread publication of the story
that a car which was recently wrecked
in transmission was found to be loaded
with empty peanut shells. which were
being shipped from the south to Posts
establishment at Battle Greek.
This canard probably originated with
President John Fitzgerald OF the Chi
cago Federation of Labor, who, 1t If
said, stated it publicly, as truth.

gerald the lie direct. He denounces
Fitzgerald's statement as deliberate
