AN NOISELESs SOUP
 SPOON INVENTED St, Louis Man Guarantees 1t to Pre- vent Both Sound and Scooping.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 16. - The noise less soup spoon has been designed by St. Louis man. H. guarante positively that Cne cannot inhale soup through his spoon and make noise at the same time. His name is H. c. Campbell. His spoon is made somewhat like those drinking cups for men with troublesome mustaches.
 The spoon has lid over one-half of its surface, with slit through which the soup enters the mouth One of its advantages, in Campbell's estimation, is that with it you must dip your soup from ycu, not toward you.
 Makes for good manners, don't you know" he said. "Consomme, pu of navy bean, jullienne and most varieties of vegetable s"ups can be absorbed through the spoon as now made. If mulligatawny, split pea and mock turtle soup are found to require a large aperature, SD cial type of spoon will be 'onstructed.'

'UNCLES" WILL NOT
 PERMIT WAR
WHOLE COUNTRY IS SAID TO BE IN HOOK TO THE
 CONTEMPORARIES.

CHICAGO, Dec. 26. - All Europe is in hook to it's "Uncles."
 Therefore there will be no war for many years to come, because the brokers" will not permit any hing which will impair the loans they have made.
 Briefly these are the conclusions of David Starr Jordan, president of leland Stanford university, as he delivered them last night in a lee ture on ".he Old Peace With Nelvet Sandaled Feet" at Abraham Lin coin center.
 All civilized nations are owned or contrClled," Dr. Jordan said, flor they say there is a difference be- tween owning and controlling a rail road, though some of us cannot quite grasp the distinction.
 The men who make war loans control all the civilized nations. The Spitzenbe rger is not controlled. Nel-
 her is the Fin. The 'Uncles' of the kings control the others. Emper- ors and kings and parliaments may not declare war to satify a whim, defend their honor or even to right a wrong until they have secured the permission of their 'Uncles.'
 There is no danger of war, but there is grave danger that the war debt will be doubled. Europe's war debt is $26,000, 100000. One-third of all the money of the world is due on the war debt of Europe alone. he Ro.hschilds and other money lending families absolutely contro the situation.
 Mine -tenths of the war scares in Eur pc and elsewhere are made by crafty statesmen and yellow press o divert the attention of the peo- pie from reforms thay are demand ing.
 When the powers of the earth find themselves hard pressed by the people they issue call to the mob to go off som where to plunder and murder, for the mob is always ready to join in the man hunt, and they fight until the people forget what it was they wanted.
 "The spending of money for arma- ments, the borrowing of enormous sums and shouldering the debt upcn future generations, to be taken in taxes from the peasants is something more than question of finance it is moral question.
 The placing of a tyranous bur den upon the poor of future gener- ations is only enc of the indict- ments to be brought against war"
 Say Paw" queried little Sylves- ter Snodgrass, whats a test case?'
 "A test case, my son." replied Snodgrass, ST., "is a case brought into court to decide whether there's enough in it to justify the lawyers in working up similar cases"

 Agnes gave a little cry of deligh and even Aunt Constance clapped her hands lightly, for Chalmers, a connections. was prime favorite with the Ellstons, and in the busi- ness he had transacted for the Burnit estate Bobby had found in him sterling qualities.
 Chalmers is good man" agreed Uncle Dan, though he is young and practically without political in fuence; but, if you can make him mayor. l predict a brilliant political future for him"
 He will have it." said Bobby, confidently. for I intend to make him the attorney for the inv stigat- ing committee. and through his work l expect to have not less than a hundred thousand dollars of stolen money turned back into the city. and county treasuries."
 As Bobby announced this he ros mechanically. and. still absorbed in the details of his big fight, walke| out into the hall.

Y. M. c. A. CAMPAIGNS.
Widespread Interest on Part Of Men
in Cause of Relation.

That there is a widespread interest
on the part of all classes of men every
where in a religion that will really
help them in their daily lives is the
declaration of l.. e. Buell., state secre-
tary of the Y. NJ. c. A.
Look at that" said Mr.. Buell., pro-
ducing a recent telegram announcing
l6 decisions for the Christian life hav-
ing been made in one day at Kalama
roo college during a visit of the state
and international college secretaries.
See this also" showing a letter
ing of Y. NJ c. a. meeting where
80 students had expressed determin-
alton to lead a Christian life.
Here's another, and this time from
our railroad association at Durand."
This letter told of 10 railroad men who
had decided for Christ, one of whom
walked up TO the platform and began
to unload. He put out two kinds OF
smoking tobacco and a plug and pipe
and said ''if l am To begin the Chris
tian life, had better come clean"
Here is another letter from one of
our county associations telling of eight
young men who had decided for Christ

Word has just reached me that
the visit Of the University Student
Deputation band to Eaton Rapids a
week ago, under the leadership of Mr.
Tinker OF the University Y. NJ. c. A
and Mr.. Johnson, our state religious
and student secretary. resulted in 7C
men and So women deciding for the
Christian life.
THE Y. NJ. G. A. avoids leading mer
to make decisions under undue excite
ment, but tries to help them to decid,
for Christ under circumstances thai
will best tend to honest convictions
and sincere decisions, so that the mar
will show his faith by his works.
During the last seven years il
Michigan the value of property owned
by the associations has increased 49,
per cent, and the total attendance al
all religious meetings for men anC
boys has increased 337 per cent. Nor,
than that. the trend of the religion!
