w. L DOUGLASS TRUST PLAN
Manufacturer Thinks Government Should Obtain Publicity by
 License System.

Large business organizations have come to stay. We cannot go back to old conditions. We must meet world competition. Large concerns can pro- duce goods at lower cost than small ones. Germany favors large corpora tions. The method of the present na- tional administration Is to dissolve the great organizations and make them smaller which is a backward step. There should be no limit to corporation doing a large and legiti- mate business, such as would be pos sfble under the licensing plan which l favor, writes w. L. Douglas, former governor of Massachusetts, in the Boston Herald.
 Prejudices against corporations merely because they are big, perhaps, must be done away with. They give labor better returns. They cheapen product and thus benefit the consm- CT. They give opportunities to small investors who get returns otherwise unattainable. They employ able young men who have no capital at all, but who receive handsome sal aries for their ability and service.
 In place of the Sherman law it is my opinion there should be a depart ment at Washington to grant licenses to all manufacturers and corporations in this country who do an interstate commerce business.
 The law should be made so clear, plain and definite that it could not be misunderstood. It should require all capital to be paid in full. Semi-yearly statements should be given to the public and certified by a public ac- countant. There should be board of examiners in each state to look aft CT these corporations just as our na- tional banks are watched by the na- tional government. They should have the right to enter the offices and ex- anime the records of all the direc- torates of these companies.

ORDER HE COULDN'T Dls0BEY
What Was Poor Darky to Do When "Old St. Luke HIsself" Gave
 Directions.

The venerable rector of St. Luke's ance. He also has decided opinions of his own on most matters and is not averse to expressing them. Recently, unknown to him, the vestry decided to have the next supply of coal for the church put in a different cellar from the one commonly used. When the coal was delivered the rector, seeing the drayman making what he thought was mistake in It's disposal, inter- posed and in no uncertain terms bade the darky place the coal in the cellar always used for that purpose.
 The senior warden several days later was much annoyed to discover that his orders had been disregarded and thet the coal was in the same old cellar. With wrath in his eye he com plained to the coal dealer. The lat ter declared that he had carefully ex- plained to the drayman where to put the coal, so to settle the matter the darkey was called up.
 Sam, you black rascal" thunderd tHe Cohl AnaH, uluH Cell you Io put that coal for St. Luke's In the cellar opening on Fourth street?"
 "Yassah."
 ''Mr. Smith tells me you didn't do it. Why can't you carry out my or ders?"

"6ix months ago there was another outburst of optimism as naive as though the world were still living in the sentimental era of glass exhibitions Since then there has opened another era of political earthquakes and con flagrations, and the area of disturb ance continues to extend. Before the Tripoi problem has been safely liquid ated or the peace of the Balkans Is as- sured, we have the outburst in China of an insurrection which may change the face of the far east and give an incalculable increase of force to all the impulses set moving by the tr1- umph of Japan. All we can be certain of in the region of world politics is that nothing Is certain. Do we need further lessons to convince us that the peace of civilization is founded upon the crust of a volcano?" asks the London Observer.

WHO WANTS SISSY" MAN Since Bishop Hendrix Would Drive Him from the Church Whither
 Will He Flee?

Bishop E. R. Hendrix, in a church council at Kansas City, asked why the church was not reaching more men "Is it because we are adapting our work more to the women?" he de manded.
 Another prominent clergyman, Rev. S. M. Neel, M. D., opined that was somewhere near the reason. eve want no more sissy men in the pull pit" he declared. A sissy" man, in this definition, is one who adapts his general conduct of parish affairs more to the women-bless them-than to the men.
 Dr. Neel is heartily applauded by a large number of his pulpit brethren and the spirit of the times in the church, as manifested in such enter prises as the Men and Religion For ward Movement" seems to emphasize what he says-the call and need for the strong, virile man in the pulpit who appeals to the man in the pew and in the street, for making the gospel mans appeal, not, of course, depreciating the indispensable value of the women.
 That Is all very well, but where. may we ask, is the typically sissy" man wanted? What calling or busi- ness needs him? Business and other professions besides the ministry can use him no better than can the church-Omaha Bee.

CUTiCURA OINTMENT HEALED
 BAD SORE ON LIMB

Some time ago I was coming up some steps when the board crushed under me like an egg shell, and my right limb went through to the knee, and scraped he flesh off the bone just inside and below the knee. I neglected it for a day or two, then 1t began to hurt me pretty badly I put balsam fir on to draw out the poison, but when I had used it a week, it hurt so badly that I changed to - oint- ment. That made it smart and burn so badly that I couldn't use it any more, and that was the fourth week after was hurt.
 Then l began to use Cuticura Oint- ment for the sore. It stopped hurting immediately and began healing right away. It was a bad-looking sore be- fore Cuticura Ointment healed it, and I suffered so I couldn't sleep from two days after I fell until I began using Cuticura Ointment.
 "Cuticura Soap is the best soap I ever saw. l have used all kinds of soap for washing my face, and always It would leave my face smarting. I had to keep lotion to stop the smart, no matter how expensive a soap I used. l find at last in Cuticura Soap a soap that will clean my face and leave no smarting, and do not have to use any lotion or anything else to ease it. l believe Cuticura Soap is the best soap made" (Signed) Mrs. M E. Fairchild, S05 Lafayette St., Wich- ita, Kan, May 8, 1911. Although Cuticura Soap and Ointment are sold by druggists and dealers everywhere, a sample of each, with 32-page book, will be mailed free on application to "Cuticura," Dept. 22 K, Boston.

Shuster. This lasted for some weeks and caused the resignation of three cabinet minis ters.
 Recently, however, he had received no information regarding the ill feel ing among the Persian people, but Mir. Shuster's work had the support of the national council.

WORKS WITHOUT FAITH Faith Came After the Works Had Laid
 the Foundation.

A Bay State belle talks thus about coffee:
 While a coffee drinker I was a suf- ferer from indigestion and intensely painful nervous headaches, from child hood.
 Seven years ago my health gave out entirely. l grew so weak that the exertion of walking, if only few feet, made 1t necessary for me to lie down. My friends thought I was marked for consumption-weak, thin and pale.
 q realized the danger I was in and tried faithfully to get relief from med icines, till, at last, after having en- ployed all kinds of drugs, the doctor acknowledged that he did not believe 1t was in his power to cure me.
 While in this condition a friend in- duced me to quit coffee and try Post um, and I did so without the least hope that 1t would do me any good. did not like it at first, but when it was properly made I found it was a most delicious and refreshing beverage.
