The Promise Of Sprinu.

Des Moines Tribune: There has

seemed to flow afresh on every hand,
health and strength seemed every

1t seemed better than ever to be alive

Spring is glorious. 1t is glorious
because it comes with warmer days,
gentler winds, brighter skies and more
generous sunshine. It is glorious be
cause it brings an end to the winter
Of discomfort and promises green

trees, singing birds and new life every.

wives the sick, renews the health and

WHY PEOPLE ARE
RIGHT-HANDED
Professor Tells Us Why But He Does
Not Make It So Very
Clear.

Rev II. I'D. Ashley tells why people
to-day are for the most. par right
handed Going back to the begin
ming of things, he says, there is no
a priori reason why man in the
earliest stages should not have been
equally dextrous in the use of both
hands, but rather the contrary AMI
mails walk on four legs naturally and
with an absolutely impartial and equal
division Of labor. When the quad
yumana appear we find them still us
Il ing their four limbs for purpose OF
ilocomotion, and when they use the
two hinder limbs to support an erect
position, as they often do, we find
that apes and monkeys are perfectly
Indifferent in their use of the fore
limbs FOR prehensile and other pur-
poses. An ape will climb tree with
equal use Of the right or left hand
and will throw stones or crack nuts
lindifferenly with either. The evil
dence of natural history would. there
fore, seem to attest that man was
evolved with equal capacity for using
/ both hands for all purposes, and with
no inherent bias for one more than
1 the other
1T is true that Psychologists tell
us that the right hand is worked by
the left brain, and the left hand by
the right brain, ard that the pressure
of blood on. the left side of the brain
/ is higher than that on the right, aud
! that man has, therefore, a natural ten
dency to use the right hand rather
than the left, but il that is generally
the case among civilized races OF the
present day, which it undoubtedly is.
it is open to argument whether ths
4 constant and continuous use OF the
right hand for generations for so
many purposes to which the left is
never put has not itself been the de-
ternnining cause Of the greater pres
sure of blood on the left lobe OF the
brain rather than the reverse.

4 MINISTER DEFENDS DIVORCE.

Rev. DIR. Henry S. Nash, professor
in the Episcopal Theological School
of Cambridge, believes conditions re-
garding the sacredness Of matrimony
have come to such a deplorable state
that stricter marriage laws are q ne
cessity, and that divorce, although q
necessary evil, should be made hard
er to obtain.
Illustrating his point on the easy
manner OF obtaining divorces and the
inconsequential methods Of entering
wedlock, Or. Nash cites the Eames-
Gogorza case, the Gould-Decies we'd
ding. the Chanler-Cayalieri incident
and the vanderbilt-McKim arrange
ment, all of which he denounced. He
says:
"A necessary factor In the solution
OF such marriage problems is divorce.
Divorce is an institution wherein this
country excels European countries.
Our divorce system is not By any
means perfect, but it is preferable 70
the European evil. If the law should
make it impossible TO get a divorce
this country would soon be in a
worse predicament than It is at pres
! ent
! There is in this country today 4
perfectly organized marriage bureau
whereby European lordlings are en-
abled to barter titles often bad ones
for American girls and American
dollars. These are the manifesto
tons of an undemocratic state Of af
fairs in this country today"
He says the remedy lies in th'
(. proper rearing of children, in strict
er marriage and divorce laws, in tn,
salvation Of politics by, men worth!
to hold political positions, and b.
a patriotic adherence to the dogm;
of liberty, equality and fraternity.

4 home PRODUCTS SHOW.

~ THYME nO9SSBS SifS
The manufacturers of Iowa City
have completed arrangements to hold
a home products show on March 16,
II and IS. The Clinton Herald in
making mention of the affair well
says:
THAT is move in the right di-
rection. Long before the doors have
been closed on the exhibits a large
number of people living in Iowa City,
who have been buying goods in the
cast, will be surprised to learn that
those same goods are being manu-
featured in Iowa City. The manu-
facturers will be we'll repaid in
money and time expended"
Some years ago Keokuk had
home products dinner which was full
OF surprises to the participants, as
well as pronounced success. The
disadvantage of the arrangement wa:
that only q small fraction of ths
population of Keokuk could bt
accommodated, and these we're tht
only ones to whom the Importance o
our diversified industries was brough
home. A home products exhibit OF
the other hand, would appeal t
everybody and everybody could EMO.
it and profit by the lesson it woul'
teach. While seeking to induce neV
factories to locate here it wouldn'
be a bad idea to call attention t
those we already have and to en-
phasize the duty of Keo1uk peopl
to give them loyal support A hon
products show would be directly i
line with Keokuk's present effort
and hopes.

BEAUTIFUL WORDS.

Tho public speaking clubs OF Amer
lea, a New York institution, offered
a prize for the twenty-five most beau
tiful words in the English language,
The prize was won by MIR. James
Shea, New York lawyer. The ac
cepted words were the following:
! Modesty, splendor, alteration elo-
quence. virtue, innocence, modesty,
faith, JOY, honor, radiance, nobility,
sympathy, heaven, love, divine, hope,
harmony, happiness, purity, liberty
The collection is a good one, I'M
5doubtedly. but no list of beautiful
words is complete without mother
and "home."
