You may have your own IDEAS
about grub for short trips, but here
are mine Bacon, corn pone, tea, rice,
Erbswurst, sugar, salt, pepper. To
make the corn pone | mix at home,
before starting, n quart Of yellow
granulatcd corn meal, one pint Of
white -four. one-half cup Of sugar, one
teaspoonful Of salt, four teaspoon
fuls of baking powder. In camp it
should be mixed in the pan to make
a fairly heavy batter and allowed to
stand for a few minutes before fry
ing, so that it becomes light and
puffy. 1t should then be dropped by
spoonfuls, without further stirring,
into the hot, creased pan and not
turned until the top has begun to
set. The bacon grease takes the
place of butter.
If less water is used the entire
mixture may be put in the frying
pan at once, baked from the bottom
up over Goals until the top has set
and then turned. 1t makes delicious
johnny cake. Try rolling the trout
in a little of the dry mixture.-War-
wick Carpenter, in Outing.

CALL TO DUTY.

What are you going to do, my
brother men, for this higher side of
human life? What contribution are
you going to make of your strength,
your time, your influence, your mon
ey, yourself, to make a cleaner,
fuller, happier, larger, nobler life
possible for some of your fellow
men? l do not ask how you are 60
ing to do it. You may do it in
business, in the law, in medicine, in
the ministry, in teaching, in litera-
ture. But this is the question:
What are you going to give person.
ally to make the human life of the
place where you do your work purer,
stronger, brighter, better and more
worth living? That will be your
best part in the warfare against vice
and crime.-Henry Van Dyke.

WHERE BEAUTY IS FOUND
Noble Ideals That Call Forth the
Smile Of Angels and Soar
Direct to God.

There are about us thousands and
thousands of poor creatures who
have nothing of beauty in their lives
they come, they go, in obscurity, and
we believe that all is dead within
them; and no n pays any heed.
And then one day a simple word, an
unexpected silence, a little tear that
springs from the source of beauty
itself, tells us that they have found
the means of raising aloft, in the
shadow of their soul, an ideal a thou
sand times more beautiful than the
most beautiful things their ears
have ever heard or their eyes ever
seen. Oh, noble and pallid ideals Of
silence and shadow! 1t is you,
above all, who call forth the smile
of the angels; it is you, above all,
who soar direct to God!-Maeter-
linck.

WONDERS OF CANAL ZONE
Most Popular Among the
Tourists.

A man who was a passenger on an
excursion steamer which returned q
few days ago from Panama and
Costa RIGA said that all the tourists
were deeply interested in what they
saw in Panama and along the line
OF the canal in the four days which
they spent there. ''The monster
dredges, the great walls of concrete.
the locks and other wonders of the
canal construction he said, "natu-
rally came first in order for our at
tention; then the cheapness of the
duck suits which we had to buy, the
independence Of the merchants who
would not send them to you, and the
hospitality of the members of the
American club will all be remem-
bered, but the most wonderful thing
we saw was the purchase by nearly
every visitor of a real Panama sou
venir in the form Of a deck of play
ing cards bearing Panama scenes,
and the cards are made in Ohio"

BACK TO CHILDHOOD.

"After childhood comes a knowl-
edge of evil, or a sophisticate and
unhealthy mode of life or one pro-
duces the other, and both are embit-
tered. Everything tells us to get back
to a state Of childhood-pain, pleas
ure, Imagination, reason, passion,
natural affection or piety, the better
part of religion. If knowledge is sup
posed to be incompatible with it.
knowledge would sacrifice herself, il
necessary, to the same cause, for she
also tells US to do SO. But as a little
knowledge first leads us away from
happiness, so greater knowledge
may be destined to bring US back
into a finer region Of it."-Leigh
Hunt,

SAM POOR EMPLOYER
Comparison With Employees
Of Dig Corporations.

The American people are ex-
tremcly generous employers when
the compensation Of an expert or
ganizer, or administrator of a great
money-earning enterprise is to be
decided; but they are exceedingly
niggardly employers when the mat
ter of conducting the affairs Of their
own government officers is involved.
A salary of $4,000 is promptly vot-
ed by the directors and stockholders
of an important bank OIL railroad,
and SC long as the man who receives
it organizes, extends and administers
the property successfully and meets
dividends and surplus requirements,
there is no breath of complaint or
criticism. 1t is, in short, only nee
essary to ssmake good" In the gov
eminent service, on the contrary, ex-
cept a few men in the customs serv-
ice, but three administrative officials
below the rank of cabinet officer re-
ceive a salary as high as $4,000. In
Guiding the customs service, there
are less than two hundred permanent
administrative positions under. the
government which carry a salary of
over $50 per week. Of course it
cannot be expected that the great adj
ministrators of banks and manufac-
turing and public-service corpora
tons will give favorable considera-
ton to federal positions of uncertain
tenure, carrying compensation
scarcely more than family pin mon

five persons were killed and more than
60 injured tonight wnen II moving pic
ture film exploded In the Canonsburg
opera house. Immediately following
the flash of the film some person
shouted Fire" There was a rush for
the exit and in a moment there was
writhing screaming mass OF human
ity in the narrow stairway leading to
.he entrance of the theater. The panic,
II is said. was senseless. Most of the
dead were smothered. A great majority
of the audience was composed of wom-
on and children. In the rush for the
exits they were thrown from their
feet and trampled on. Others were
thrown upon them and those at the
bottom OF the pile We're suffocated.
Panic Stricken.
When the volunteer fire departments
reached the theater the sight stagger-
ed them. Those who had escaped from
the building and other persons drawn
to the scene were rushing ineffectively
about. No one was making any effort
to aid the struggling mass within the
theater.
The firemen pushed into the build
ing and threw many persons into the
street. AS the elected ones regained
their feet they ran shrieking about the
streets. As the firemen neared the bot
