MIR. kIPlING AND AMERICA.
His Literary Trails Lead from San Fran
cisco to the Maine Coast.

The American trails of Rudyard Kip
ling lead in many directions. Back in
the years when he was a very callow
subeditor of an Indian newspaper whose
knowledge of American life was mainly
confined to what he had learned by read
ing the stories of Bret Harte, he wrote
a tale of San Francisco which is to be
found in the volume "Abaft the Funnel"
which appeared a year or two ago In
the Naulhka he staked a literary claim
to part of Colorado, indicated by the
town which he playfully dubbed Topaz.
Vermont he invaded with some of the
yarns incorporated in THE Days Work"

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from Pole to Pole
j thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
have not WINGED or cried aloud
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody but unbowed
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

How charged with punishments the

The world advances and in time out

The laws that in our fathers day were

And. doubtless, after us some purer

Made wiser by the steady growth of

The promise of the future not the past.

tions had begun or were pending
against the Standard Oil company, it's
subsidiary concerns or officers and di-
rectors for violation of the Sherman
antitrust law under the recent decis-

The resolution was read in the SEN

corded by unanimous consent and the
resolution was agreed to without de-

Heretofore, on Decoration Day occa,
sions the G. A. r. members have
read orders and recited ritual in the

be done in the post hall and thus give
more time to special music and the
speaker OF the day. This change will
prevail in the coming Decoration Day

One of the most harrassing of trou-

constipation, and millions of people
suffer with it from infancy to old age.
Its cause may be traced to any one of
a dozen different circumstances of
diet, environment and even birth.
Millions are practically born with
constipation. Had they used intelligent
methods at the beginning perhaps they
would have found relief, but they had
the usual misfortune OF bad advice.
They tried dieting, stewed fruits, then
laxative waters, then pills and various
other cathartics, and so in the end
made matters worse. But there is still
hope. even for the seemingly hopeless,
