and to President Wilson against the
proposed duty Of l5 per cent on for.

THE GREAT WHITE,
WAY OF ASSYRIA

From the Christian Herald.
Shergat consists of one great mound,
nearly mile in length and more than
half as broad. Near the northwestern
corner is high conical peak repre-
senting the ancient temple tower The
double city vail has been uncovered
The parapet. even, remains, and along
its outer edge are the small holes through
which the Assyrian warriors of nearly
1000 years ago used to shoot their ar
rows at the enemy below. The city gates,
winding so that the people without might
not see through them into the city,
have been uncovered Temples construct
ed in honor of the good Assur and the
goddress Ninip have been found and their
plan revealed. While rocking at their
ruins, it requires but little imag aginatlon
to see the statues of the deities on their
pedestals, the altar before them with the
smoke of the offerings rising heaven
ward, the long-robed priests officiating
and the crowds of worshipers joining N
the responsive chants. These temples
have revealed a distinct picture of the
early Assyrian worship
There, too, are the palaces of the early
kings, with large courts surrounded by
chambers, similar to the modern houses
of Mosul. There were streets so narrow
that two could scarcely walk abreast, but
running through the center of the town
was one wide, straight street, the Broad
way of Assur, paved with marble blocks
and lined along its sides with little drink
ing houses and shops. Near the south
ern wall of the city was a public square
which revealed as valuable treasures as
any ever discovered in Mesopotamia.
There was a verltable forest of stone
monuments, a hundred or more great
monoliths bearing the names and in
scriptions of early Assyrian kings and
mobiles.

From the London Chronicle.
There is no reason why you should not
write as well with the left hand as with

spondent, when his right arm was shot
off, learned to write left-handed. Miss

ber Nelson's left-hand writing. More

one hand and write simultaneously other
notes with the other
Many of my correspondents have been
examining their souls their brain lobes
and their hands, and finding that they

For there is always the unsuspected ac-
tion, and there is the discovery of the

The Poet Laureate

FROM Ine LOnuOn CnTOn1Cle.
When Sir Walter Scott was offered the
laureateship in 1913 he declined the post
because, as he wrote to Lady Abercorn,
''the necessity of writing odes twice a
year is difficulty which no one ought to
encounter who has any poetical character
to lose; at least. l am sure l should find
it insurmounutable. The thing might be
easily done in decent sort of way, as
old White head himself describes it:
Whose Muse obliged by sack or pension
Without a subject or invention,
Must certain words in order set
AS innocent as a Gazette,
Must some half-meaning half disguise
And utter neither truth nor les
Tennyson received the letter offering
him the laureateship one morning before
he was out of bed. On rising he immedi-
ately wrote two replies one accepting, the
other declining, the offer, and determined
to consult with his friends at dinner which
to send. Ever afterward he would jok-
ingly declare that he accepted the honor
because Venables assured him that If he
became laureate he would always, when
dining out, be offered the liver-wing of
a fowl"
If Tennyson thought so lightly of the
poet laureateship as to accept it merely
because Venables assured him that when
he dined out he should always be offered
the liver wing of a fowl the great public
at least took the office very seriously.
The immediate result, his son tells us In
the Life was that his father got such
shoals of poems that / am almost crazed
with them; 200, 10000 poets of Great Brit
ain deluge me daily with poems; truly the
laureateshfp is no sinecure. If any good
soul would just by way ef diversion send

Vacation Don'ts

! From the Kansas City Star.
| Don't go to place where there Is a sus-
| picious milk supply.
| Don't go to a place where you are not
| certain as to the condition of the drinking
| water
Don't go to a place where there is dam
ger of infection through flies.
"A large number of the typhoid fever
cases developed in this city each year."
| said a health commissioner, ARE con-
| tracted out of town. There are resorts
and camping places which aid in the
spread of the disease because of lack of
proper sanitary conveniences through bad
milk supplies and through fly infection.
They should lie avoided, If possible, by
persons leaving the city for the vacation
season."
Commissioners Lederie of New York in
his recent talk on the easily acquired ty-
phoid germs at summer resorts, advised
that where people were not absolutely
sure of the sanitary conditions they i'm
munize themselves with sterilized typhoid
cultures in order to prevent infection with
the disease. Requests for incubation can
be made by telephone or letter to the di-
| vision of communicable diseases of the
department of health. Feeling that it's
wider use under proper precautions was
called for, the board of health on Decem-
ber 10, 1912, authorized the performance
of immunization against typhoid fever un-
der similar conditions applying to the free
administration of dphtheria anti toxin.
Inoculations are made either at home or
at the central office of the department.
All requests for the treatment must be
made or approved by the attending physi-
cian..
This treatment, It Is declared, reduces
by three-quarters the number of cases
of typhoid fever occurring among persons
who have taken 1t. The fatality is only
about one-half among persons who are
thus treated.
Immunization is compulsory in the
United States army. and marked results
have attended it's wide use
A large part of the fall rise" of ty-
phoid in New York has heretofore been
attributed to cases contracted in summer
resorts.
