What Warm-Cold Is.

Rev. Charles r. Aked. in the Christian Herald
And | have seen sunshine. oh, sunshine
as splendid as yours among my beloved
mountain in Switzerland. You know
what cold is and what warm is But
90 YOU know what warm-cold is? Did you
ever live whole winter through glowing
because the frost was so warm? Do you
know the wonder of blue ice. pink snow
and forty degrees of frost while the
men skate in pajamas and the girls with
open parasols? And the splendor of COL
ors in the morning sky; everything in the
solar spectrum-red, orange, yellow,
green, blue. indigo, violet; at each mo-
ment new combination. And then
the sun is up. and the intoxication of it
all makes YOU wonder if you ever lived
before.

Congratulations From Sweden.
Something unusual in the shape of con-
gratulatory messages came to the State
Department yesterday. when a cablegram
arrived from the Swedish secretary of
foreign affairs recalling the victory of
the little Monitor over the Merrimac.
That action doubtless was inspired by the
fact that the designer of the famous little
"cheesebox was himself a Swede.
rhe message reads:
'Ons the fiftieth anniversary of the
memorable fight in Hampton roads
send on behalf of the Swedish government
our hest wishes for the welfare of the
great American nation. The imperishable
memory of John Ericsson is an everlasting
link in the chain of mutual sympathy be-
tween the two peoples
John Ericsson was the Swedish inventor
who built for the United Stats Navy the
ironc.ad Monitor. which, March D. Is -.
defeated the oncederate ironclad Merri-
mac. which had destroyed several wooden
warships. Ericsson secured a contract to
build for the federal navy several of tt csc
monitors. ard they later did valuable serv-
ice in the Union cause.
Ericsson was born in Sweden. served as
an officer in the Swedish army and came
to this country in 1899, when he was thir-
ty-siN years old He died in New York
city. March s, 1884, and his body was
taken back to Sweden for burial on the
United States cruiser Baltimore. A statue
has been erected to his memory in
Battery Park New York. and a torpedo
boat in the United States navy has been
named after him.

Nobody'll dare kick him around.
