The report of Naval Surgeon General
Stokes as presented in Washington
shows that many of Uncle Sans val
liant tars are not seaworthy when left
alone in the water In other words,
the mortality list demonstrates that
the majority of sailors who die in the
service reach their end by drowning.
The gurgeon general makes the sen
sible suggestion that sailors be COM
PEELED to learn to swim. 1t should
hardly be necessary to have this no.
ton borne in on the naval authorities
in an official way. 1t would seem the
part of discretion to see to it that the
men who go down into the sea in ships
should at least have swimming ac-
quaintance with the element they are
supposed to be most familiar with.

The difference between pleasure and
happiness is. that the former relates
to the body and the latter to the
spirit, and the peculiar situation In
which we find them is that civilization
makes more provision for the former
than for the latter. There is plenty to
endow and strengthen the spirit, but
what caters to the body seems to IN
crease faster. The allurements, ex-
elements, entertainments, sports, func-
tiOns of society, etc. all belong to the
Halter class. Happiness has little
show when pleasure gets busy. The
latter is crowded with victories. 1t
walks all over happiness. Pleasure
gives the virtues the slip and sets
down the spirit as sort of slow
poke. Art, books, nature converse
zion. thought, belong to the spirit and
are the instruments of happiness.
Pleasure cares little for them. It
would rather loll and smoke, and
laugh, and rah-rah, and encore. The
distinction is plain and he who ignores
it doesn't know the true path of life,
the path that leads to high manhood
and high womanhood. Pleasure is, OF
course, a part of life, but to make it q
greater part than happiness is the
mistake that most of us make, and a
sorry mistake, too.

EXPERIENCE
OF MOTHERHOOD
Advice to Expectant Mothers

The experience Of Motherhood is try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in a hundred is prepared or un-
derstands how to properly care for her
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received a shock from
which il is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and a distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
happy and healthy mother Of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. a most valuable tonic and
invigorator of the female organism.

ST. Paul includes envy. and there

and to adopt instead those which have

Miriam's jealousy and Envy.
Today's Bible Study tells Of a seri-
Gus error made by Aaron and Miriam
brother and sister Of Moses. both his
seniors. That Miriam was the lead
ing spirit is fully justified by the out
come. which shows that Gods punish
ment rested upon her, and not upon
Aaron
Moses had married an Ethiopian, or
Cushite. woman. At this time she
came 10 live with him in the Camp
of Israel, and thus became. as wife
of the leader. the first lady of the ma
ton. Previous to this, Miriam had
filled this once. Il was
but natural that she should feel the
loss OF her position and the influence
which went with It, especially as she
reflected that her sister-in-law was of
an alien race.
This fact seemed to give Miriam's
jealousy a religious footing; and she /
convinced herself that /
Ter hostility 10 her sister-in-law was /
'ased not upon jealousy, but upon a /

stances Of their case fully justify their
attitude.
Miriam became more ana more con-
vinced that God would not think of us
ing especially one who had thus lost
caste with herself Her poisoned mind
began TO see evidences that the Lord
had forsaken Moses. that otherwise he
would not have fallen into what she
considered a great mistake. She com
municated her fears 10 Aaron, and the
two doubtless Thought seriously and
prayed much respecting the sad fall of
lsrnel's leader and the necessity laid
upon them 20 make good his dereliction.
Apparently Aaron was a weak char
acter, merely used and useful as Moses
mouthpicce He showed much weakness
on this occasion. as also when in re-
sponse to the persuasion of the Israel
ties he made the golden calf and as
sisted m their idolatrous worship
Miriam probably assented at that time
that such was the only course TO satisfy
the rebellious spirit of the people.
Tho text implies that Miriam began
10 spread her seditious suggestions
throughout the Camp The people were
to be prepared and the Lord helped, of
course. by the primary suggestion that
Moses was not the only leader of the
people. that Miriam and Aaron were
also prophets and in relationship with
the Lord in exactly the same manner
and degree as Moses. This insidious
preparation would make ready for the
expected time when God would disown
Moses and speak entirely through
Miriam Aaron being her mouthpiece.
And the Lord Heard It
The Lord nipped the conspiracy in
the bud by Suddenly calling Moses,
Aaron and Miriam into His presence be-
fore the Tabernacle All three obey
ed the summons Miriam doubtless
supposing that now the moment had
come when the Lord would show that
she had rightly OWNED His intentions
in ousting Moses from the leadership
and appoint herself.
The announcement. however, was very
different. God did, indeed declare
that Miriam and Aaron had TO some
extent occupied he place of phophets,
in that God had been pleased to use
them; but with equal distinctness the
Lord pointed out that His dealing with
Moses was on very much higher plane. /
