Mr.. Marion Lawrance of Chicago,
general secretary of the International
Sunday School association, who has
recently returned from a comprehen-
sive trip to California, says: "1n my
nearly twelve years of official connec-
ton with the International Sunday
School association, preceded by fif-
teen years of close relation with it, in
my Judgment we have never faced an
International convention which began
to compare in Importance with the
one to be held in San Francisco next
June. The time and place are strate-

the Pacific coast are looking forward
with the most eager anticipations to
the blessings that are coming to them
because Of this gathering. California

SKIN DISEASES
HUM0Rs in THE BLOOD

Nature has made ample provision
in the moisture and sunshine Of the
air for the outward protection and
healthy condition OF the skin. But
the more important work of nourish-'
ing the cuticle has been left to an iu-
ward source-the blood. 1t is from
the circulation that the pores and
glands receive their stimulus, and
the fibrous tissues are all preserved
in healthful state because of con-
slant nutriment supplied by the blood.
1t is only when the circulation be-
comes infected with humors or acids
that we are troubled with skin affec-
tions. The humors producing these
troubles are carried through the cir
culation direct to the skin, and their
irritating or inhammatory effect re-
mains until the blood is cleansed.
S. S. S. cures Skin Diseases, because
it is the greatest Of all blood purifiers.

GOOD ENGLISH.

BOSTON, April 26.-That the men
who translated the King James Bible
900 years ago knew how to use the
English language better than any
body of scholars that could be gath
cred together in the whole world to-
day is the opinionSo of President Will
liam II. Faunce Of Brown university
Speaking at the Bible tercentenary
meeting in Trinity church last night,
DR.. Faunce said:
"Men knew how to use language
then as we know how to use edged
tools today. We can't equal them.
We know to much 10 be simple, we
have too many doubts to be so sure;
we are too consciotp of the verdicts
of critics to aim stfsleHt at the hearts
of the people. Since 1911, no man in
England or America has written in
such direct or simple style as these
Bible translators, save John Bunyan
and Abraham Lincoln--the latter in
his second inaugural and Gettysburg
address"

GAINS WIFE

As there was but the one pair Great
ed by the Lord, Adam and Eve, there
is only one answer and that a reason
able one, when we accept the Script
ural teaching. We read that Adam
had other children, both sons and
daughters, besides Cain and Abel
Genesis v, 8, ~. AS the race had a
perfect start in Adam, and his chill
dren were nearly perfect, no disas-
trous results would occur from inter-
marriage such as would be the case
today when the race has deteriorated
to such an extent that marriage be-
tween first cousins even, Is prohibited
by law in some states. We recall that
Abraham married his half sister many
centuries later and after the race had
travelled considerably over the down.
ward way. We know chat Cain could
not have married his brother, and
since Adams daughters were the only
females on earth, the inevitable con-
clusion Ii that Cain married his sister
The land Of Nod, where Cain resided
was land In the near vicinity Of
Eden, which afterwards became
known by the titls Nod. The city
built by Cain was, as the Hebrew word
signifies, q walled place, or in other
words = house, or villa.-Rev. Rock

COAL LAND" IN COLORADO
IS AGAIN OPEN TO ENTRY

Over 10000 acres of public lands be-
lieved to be underlain by coal, in Nc
vada and Utah, were withdrawn from
entry during March, in furtherance Of
the governments policy of having the
geological survey classify and valua
the public coal lands.
In the same month, as a result of
detailed geologic examination, 1851
c21 acres of land within the coal fields
in Colorado, Montana, New Mexico,
South Dakota, Utah and Wyoming,
found by the geological survey to be
"noncoal" in character, were returned
to the public domain.
During March 1,320,74S acres were
classified by the survey as "coap' land

TAYLOR FILES PROTEST
FROM EAGLE COUNTY

WASHINGTON, d. c., April 25.-
Representative Taylor called on Sec
rotary Fisher today to file protest
forwarded TO him by the commission
ers of Eagle county, regarding power
site Withdrawals. The secretary has
taken the matter under advisement,
but there is little hope for any modi-
fication of the executive order.
The petition ard protest from Eagle
county recites that about all of the
land fit for agricultural development
in that portion of Colorado is along
Eagle and Grand rivers and that this
immense area has been withdrawn by
the interior department for power
site purposes.
The result has been to stop all agri-
cultural development, as the with
drawal of all available agricultural
lands prevents settlement and de-
prives the state of taxes it would re-
ceive were these lands open to settle
ment.
The righteousness of the withdraw
ing of this vast area, in the fear that
the power trust" will secure power
sites, is shown by the statement that
all the waters of these streams have
long since been appropriated and the
only surplus water would be flood wa
ters during possibly two months of
the year. 1t is further shown that
the Central Colorado Power company
already has a large plant on Eagle
river, but is unable to sell anything
like the amount of energy the plant
could produce.
The petition asserts that Eagle
county is dependent upon its agricul-
tuial and mineral development, and
that future growth in each of these
lines is practically impossible by rea-
son Of power sites and forest reserve

AN EXPERT DECISION.

The celebrity Of Mrs. Brown of the
treasury department in Washington
az expert judge Of burned and de-
faced bills has been won through
years of painstaking work. This ac-
count is given in the Ladies' Home
Journal. One of the hardest cases
which Mrs. Brown has ever had to
examine was whero wad of currency
jammed into typewriter ribbon box
for safekeeping had been In house
that was burned. The blackencd tin
box was found among the ruins, but
luckily it was allowed to cool thor
oughly before the top was removed,
otherwise its contents would probably
have been turned to ashes on expo
sure to the air. When opened the
bills were found to be a mass of char
red embers Of deep black color. So
far as could be seen not a sign re-
mained to indicate that this stuff had
once been money. The box was sent
to Washington, and the treasury Off
cials who first saw it shook their
heads. They could not see a sign by
which to identify any of it. The box
finally reached Mrs. Brown. She re-
moved the mass of charred paper and
laid it on sheet of white blotting
paper, and, with her thin paper-cut-
ter managed to separate the remains
of each bill from the rest, breaking off
Only few fragments. This work re-
ouired several hours. The magnify
ing glass was focused on each piece,
hut even it revealed no clew to the
original value. So, taking her micro
scope, she succeeded in getting one
of the pieces upon its bed and after
a few minutes study found 1t to he
piece Of $50 note. The other frag-
ments thus examined were finally de-
tcrmined to be Of the same denomina-
ton. The box had contained s110---
consisting Of five $50 bills and one
$40 bill. When the owner sent the box
to the treasury he described the cur
rency. His description was not Civ
en- to Mrs. Brown, but hers tailed
exactly with his. The United States
regards the skill of this littl. lady so
highly that her decision is always ac-
cepted as final. If she says that the
heap Of blackened paper before her
was once of the value of $1,000 the
one who sent 1t will receive this sum
in return. And her honesty is far
beyond question that the nation gives
authority to pay out good money in
exchange for mutilated money without
asking permission Of any one, pro-
vided three-hfths Of the original bank
bills are contained in the pieces she
receives.

of the park commission are carried
out The commission has prepared

AN ANCIENT CUSTOM.

LONDON, April 26.-The birching
Of boys on the old switchblock sys-
tenn has been discontinued in the up
per school at Eton. In the old days
the birch was one Of the institutions
OF Eton and was regarded by all boys
with something akin to terror, but ir
later years the punishment inflicted
has been much less severe, as the
present headmaster believes in estab-
lishing discipline in the upper school
without the inflicting Of cruelty and
he has therefore dispensed with ths
birch and substituted the ordinary rat
tan cane. The ancient switchblock,
covered with the carved names OF
men famous in the history Of England,
was stolen three years ago in a spirit
of daring by two students who werc
leaving, but although it was replaced
by new block, this has never been
Put to use in the same form as its
predecessor.
