WARNING TO PARENTS,

1t is risky to feed raw milk and
cream to children or invalids un-
less you are sure that at the farm
which produces the milk the utmost
cleanliness is observed at all times,
particularly during milking; that
the employees are thoroughly heal
thy and cleanly persons. that the
COWS are free from diseases, that
the water used for rinsing is of un-
doubted purity. and that the milk
covered until delivered to you.
Raw milk often produces Tuber-
culosis. Scarlet Fever, also Ty-
phoid and other intestinal dis
eases.
We can guard against infection
, by properly pasteurizing milk or
by home pasteurization.
Properly pasteurizing milk (and
cream) by keeping 1t at 40 deg.
F. for twenty to thirty minutes
does not affect its nutritive value
nor It's digestibility. Quick or COM
mercial pasteurization. however, is
unreliable.
You can home pasteurize raw
milk by heating It to near boiling.

StoIypin DIssected.

Abraham Cahan. in Harper's Weekly.
Every feature of his public career
contributed color toward the portrait
of a self-seeking. time-serving office
holder, who has nothing but the
feathering of his own nest at heart.
OF polished manners and of the habits
of a man of modern civilization, he
had the inner characteristics of a des-
pot of the Middle Ages.
In justice to his memory, il must be
said, however. that If he was destitute
OF human sympathy, he lacked neither
brains nor backbone.
TemperamentalIy. he was one Of the
exceptional cases among his fellow
countrymen. 1t is typical of a Russian
to be endowed with more Imagination
and sentiment than with capacity for
cool judgment and prosalc horse
sense" The broad Russian SOUL
which the nation claims as one OF tho
essential elements in it's psychological
makeup and which accounts for the
Tolstoys, the Turgenieffs, the TschaI-
kowskys. and for the hosts of young
men and women who offer their lives
on the altar of liberty. is also re-
sponsible for that \s.RussIan unpre-
paredness" and organic shiftlessness
owing to which IL came to grief in the
Manchurian conflict. But then IL a
Russian chances to be affected neither
by the blessings nor by the evils of
that breadth" II he happens to be ,un-
impulsive, unimaginatiye, unsentimen-
tai, and possessed. instead, OF imper-
turbable tact. an iron viii. and steadi-
ness of purpose. the probabilities are
that he will be an unfeeling, relentless
individual. Stolypin was just this kind
OF marrow w-souled" Russian.

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL.
New Volume by Katharine Lee
Bates of Wide Interest.


The name of Katharine Lee Bates will
ever call up delightful memories to
young women who have studied at Well
esley College and there fallen under her
inspiring influence as professor of Eng
glsh literature. No teacher there was
ever more widely beloved or more sin
cerely trusted and admired. To a large
circle OF readers and students she is
known through her books of travel her
charming textbook editions of Shakes
peare, Tennyson. and Chaucer, and her
frequent contributions in prose and verse
to current periodicals. Recently the
Thomas Y. CroweH Company has brought
out a complete collection of her poems.
which is certain to command wide and
appreciative attention.
The title, America the Beautiful" is
taken from the initial poem, one in
short series of patriotic pieces, with a
broadly national and definitely ethical
significance. Noble as these are, the
other divisions of the collection will per-
haps make a more tender and personal
appeal. though throughout the work is of
perfect finish and exquisite poetic impli-
cation. The range of subjects, the un-
derstanding and sympathy for the out
standing interests of life, and even more
of it's more subtle and hidden experiences,
are remarkable, and, on the technical side
the critic can find only Commendation for
the variety and appropriateness of metri-
cal form.
One of the delightful little verses is
typical of her style:
LOVE PLANTED ROSE.
Love planted rose,
And the world turned sweet.
Where the wheat field blows
Love planted rose,
Up the mill wheels prose
Ran q music beat.
Love planted rose,
And the world turned sweet.

Cleveland.

Somers owners of the local clubs, and other powers in the American league. Says the News:
 Secretary F. w. Clicks of the Baltimore club was in Cleveland last Sunday He said at. that time that he had met with encouragement from the men he talked with, and had every reason to believe that 1t would not be long until Baltimore was back in the major organization"
 Mir Somers today said he had talked with a gentleman from Baltimore" but denied that it had anything to do with the placing of a team there

 Three of the five have departed. Fox and Smith were dissatisfied and were released. Fiene. according to the an- nouncement, was dispensed with on ac- count of failure to make good.
 Campbell and Ryan are still with Mobile, and though neither is doing sensational work. but, apparently, are satisfied with the state of life into which they have been called.
 There is another interesting propo- sltion. Is Memphis paying its play CTS more than s3500 per month?
 No such question would have been asked. had not a Memphis newspaper, in a publication of some days ago, made the query apropos.
 The News Scimitar, in fact, stated that with Goodwin and Knotts on the club. the payroll was up to the limit, and that the players who took their places Newton and Adams, draw more than they.
 The News Scimitar, which has never believed that a salary limit was en- forced in the Southern league. goes even further.
 It states that President Coleman, in the beginning. declared that he would enforce the limit just as long as the other presidents, and that when he determined to break it. he would do so openly
 The News-Scimitar concludes its ar ticle by stating: It now remains to be seen whether the infringement will be openly made, or whether subterfuges will be resorted to-"
 That's an interesting situation worthy of the notice of the most hiase.

Selma was shut out until after one man was down in the ninth, when on Cooper's two-bagger and Mays three-base drive and McAllister's home run over left field fense, three runs were counted.

 The reason is patent. The five Mobile players who notified President Kaya- naugh that each had a side contract in addition to his official contract with the Mobile club, failed to prefer formal charges or make the essential proof.
 It will be interesting to watch the careers of the five players in ques- ltion-even if it is not interesting to consider the causes and wherefores of their failure to carry out the plan on which they had evidently agreed.
