While the trust newspapers
were so busy depressing news
boys they left Miss Shoemaker
alone. But one day last week
Daily News wagon drove up to
her store and a big bundle of
Journals and News were dumped
inside the door.
Miss Shoemaker called to the
men that she did not want the
papers. They laughed and drove
off,,
Miss Shoemaker carried the
papers out to the curb and set fire
to them.
Fifteen minutes later the Daily
News wagon, loaded down with
men, came back. The men, slug
gers most of them, crowded into
the store. One of them showed
deputy's badge and told Miss
Shoemaker she was under arrest
for destroying property of the
newspapers.
"The property of the news
papers had no business in my
store after l told you people
didn't want non-union papers,"
said Miss Shoemaker.
1T doesn't matter" said one of
the sluggers. You're under ar
rest"
The sluggers began dragging
Miss Shoemaker toward the door.
But a crowd had collected in the
meantime and there were angry
murmurs against the sluggers.
They got frightened, released

MAKES BIBLE STORIES
VIVID TO TINY TOTS

Making the Bible the most interest
ing story book the child has ever
known is the work that Mrs. Il. r.
/ Costlgan, of Denver, Colo, has at,
tempted successfully.
Mrs. Costigan is introducing in
Sunday school work the raethods she
used as kindergarten teacher.
Episoopalians and Methodists alike,
seek her services.
She has accomplished three things.
She has popularized the Sunday
school; found way TO turn the Bible
into a simple story book comprehen-
sive TO all ages. and hit upon a plan
20 impress the important facts OF the
Great Book on the child's mind.
Tiny children build their Noah 5
ark with blocks. set around It their
wooden animals and mark out the
division OF the seas with sand.
Pencil and paper give the children
a chance TO express themselves I'm ac-
zion: TO tell what they had learned,
by drawing colored pictures. So Moses
in the bullrushes is pictured and the
story OF the lrsaelites crossing the
Red sea.
The nature story is told along with
the Bible story. The snow is pictur'
ed as a gift from the Creator: the
story of Gods love is related in the

Most people think of the word diet
ing" as describing a condition of cat
ing in cases of disease or disturbances
OF bodily functions. This, OF course,
restricts the use OF the term rather
narrowly. Dieting in It's broadcast
sense means the whole scheme OF nu-
triton.
While there is no question OF the
value Of food i'm the prevention and
alienation OF disease, food does not
cure disease nor do drugs nor physi-
clans cure disease Disease is never
cured: II is sometimes overcome, pal
lated and eliminated. A proper diet
Will do much towards aiding in this
desirable consummation, but first OF
all dieting means good nutrition, prob
ably different to some extent from
that which has been usually followed
by the subject.
In disease as we'll as in health i. is
important TO have an abundant sup
ply of food which can be digested. In
disturbances OF health, which are usu-
ally attended by disturbances of d.-
gestion, dieting becomes of supreme
Importance. In this sense dieting
consists in finding out what nutritious
foods the subject can tolerate in or
der that he may not add starvation 10
his other Ills.
There are a great many diseases
which are largely controlled by gem
erous diet. Modern medicine has
taught us that in a well nourished
body there exist innumerable organ
isms, belonging in general TO the
class known as the white corpusclcs
OF the blood, which have the property
OF attacking and destroying infectious
germs which If left alone would pro-
duce disease.
The more vigorous and better nour-
! ished the system the greater the pow
err of these guardians of the body's
! health, and even after disease has
once been established IL We can iri-
prove nutrition and strengthen the
blood. especially in these directions,
we have a better chance TO overcome
! the disorder.

been condemned by many physioloG-
lists, but later Investigations have

Mountain Women

Il wish there had never been gun
made!" exclaimed Mrs. Sidna Allen,
the wife OF one of the Virginia out
laws. The pathetic side of many OF
the mountain women may be found
condensed In that single sentence. IL
IS always they who have been the chief
sufferers in-the whisky fights and
feuds which have disgraced the noun
tains so long, and II is they rather than
the men who seek escape from the
bare lives the mountaineers live.
Some years ago two young women,
one from Louisville and the other from
Lexington, were on a camping vaca-
ton deep in the mountains of eastern
Kentucky. When they were about to
leave, hill woman said 10 them pa
thetically: why! are you-uns goin' ?
We-uns thought you-uns were goin' TO
stay and teach we-uns how 10 live bet
ter" II appealed 10 their hearts The
two stayed. and they have been there
ever since.
They have founded forty miles from
railroad great industrial school
which is teaching the mountain women
and their children how 10 live better.
They have had Christmas celebrations
for children who had never heard OF
Christmas before. Always 1t is the
women who are most eager to learn
and who try to make the men put away
their guns and whisky bottles.
One can also see why the women in
the mountains are so eager for pro-
hibition. The little moonshine distil-
lery hidden in some ravine is the pro-
life source OF murder. Here the feud
is fed. When the men drink the stuff
their brains become tnffamed, and II
they do not fight with one another,
they remember and magnify old
grudges against somebody on the 9TH
er side OF the mountain. Then the
shooting begins.-New York World.

hearkening to the thought of charity
dispensed by Senator Lorimer to the
washerwoman of Chicago, and his

to you to count him amongst the

worse time and again. Is not the
trading of political Office for political
support by an aspiring candidate,
public as well as private corruption?
Is it not double sin to use appon-
tive government positions, which

cognition Of merit discrediting honor

by practicing corruption by bribe and

life in detail, for some of the things
which he was caught at were dug up
by political enemies of his. Yet we,
his neighbors, did not attempt to go
back of the returns Of the majority
