The Mothers
Part IN her
Baby'S Health

1t is the mothers part to get ready
in advance, not only with fine, dainty
clothes, but with her own health. She
should keep herself serene and strong
for the little one that is coming
1t is the mothers part to watch the child
and train it, and above all to know all those
things that the world has discovered about
babies.
She should know that babies die, need
lessly, one in ten in the first year, because
they are wrongly fed. She should know
why, so that she will keep her own baby.
She should know that sleep and right clothes
and fresh air are important, but that it IS
the wrong food that takes most of our babies
from us.
She should know that cows milk is for the
four stomachs of a calf; that it was not
meant for babies. She should know that
cows milk is always hard to digest, and that
it may give her baby consumption. She
should know that mothers milk is best and
that dependable substitute is

Vision Gives Man Power

On address before recent meeting of the Churchmen's club of Baltimore Mr C. H. Grasty, editor of the Baltimore Sun spoke of the plan to build great cathedral in that city Such a structure, he said would inspire the imagination of the people. The value of imagination was the theme of his address, part of which is here reprinted from the Maryland Churchmat)
 We do not sufficiently value imagination in this severely practical age. It has been said some where that vision the lack of it. differentates man from man. The man without vision sees the commonplace in life and is the drone the drudge, the cod The with vision steam engine in the teakettle, new language in the clouds, an angel in the arble, a hero in the child. people in the multitude, and becomes the inventor, the tst, the prophet. the statesman.
 magnation is the mother of enterprise How can we do a thing unless we first see thing and how thing that does yet exist unless with the eye of imagination? Therefore, in appraising the various elements in the worlds progress find in reverence the creative force which gave the world imagination and I imagination the architect of achievement. When arrive at efficiency by way of reverence and imagination, the power of man reaches it's highest point. We become unsefsh in motives; to put it another way We have broader sefishness
 In his savage state is narrowly selfish He takes from his fellow what he has the strength to take to keep. He plays the game for self But when, through the educational processes of reverence and imagination, has arrived state of enlightened selfishness, he understands and acts upon the broad principle of operation. Man no longer works separate unit, but takes his place in society and begins to contribute his share of team work to civilization whole.
 We owe the civilization in which live today to these great processes through which the sWorld has passed If capable of high achievement a world body, if moving together in operation, it is because the the cathed ral. of poetry of painting, of the crusade great world imagination, and in that imagination great world efficiency visuaized nd reduced to practice
 We have today steam, electricity. the printing press, the locomotive, the steamship the autOmo- bile. the telephone the telegram, the Marconi and the modern wonders Do we think that these achievements are the achievements of ton, two generations? Only a very light mind could tolerate such a conception They have to us from past that knew it's duty pOsterty.

CHiNA'S NEW COAT OF ARMS.

(From the Christian Science MonitorD
 China'S coat of arms while marking g departure from the legendary dragon is interesting as showing how the old ideas are embodied in q new form. The design has been semi officially plained in the following words:
 China has selected grain emblem, which are added the sum- and stars, SlgnifNing light; mountain, sgnifying mand; dragon mutabty; a pheasant, cul- ture; sacrficial cups. filial piety; aquatic grass purity; flames. brightness; grain rice, nurture; hatchet, decision, and finally ZgZag symbol, signfyng discernment
 These symbols are arranged follows:
 The grain is the center of shield. Behind the shield is the hatchet, which rice is scattered. The sun is above the shield and the mountain is below the Further below the sun is the Zigzag symbol. while the dragon is on the right of the hatchet with the above the dragons head The flames are on the dragons back. and sacrificial cup is in it's claws. On the left of the hatchet is the pheasant with the stars above it's crest aquatic grass it's back and sacrificia cup in claws.
 It is claimed officially that the symbols adopt ed have been arranged with the purpose of rep resenting propriety and harmony

WHAT LIZ MEANS.

tFrom the Baltimore NeWs)
 There is immediate political campaign be- fore A presidential election has just been held. q administration put in charge of the nations affairs Politics, except the internal politics of the democratic party, ought normally to be dead.
 Yet last week a crowd of four thousand gather ed at the Philadelphia station to meet Mir ROose- welt. The Philadelphia opera house packed to overfowing by those who wished to hear him--a recently defeated candidate-speak. Considering occasion and season, the meeting probably unique among all the political gatherings that have been held in the last half century.
 What MT. Roosevelt said is of less importance than the public sentiment that secured him his audience. Strange things happening in Wash inston. The in charge there is leading senators and congressman into unfamiliar ways. Why MT. Wilson nominated? Why senators and congressman submitting the overthrow of their old privileges trying to accustOm themselves to the novel idea that something more than politics is involved in the management of the nations affairs?
 That meeting at Philadelphia week gives the answer. That such a meeting could be held, such a season is clear intimatiOn of what will happen if the old fashioned among the members of the house and refuse to let President Wilson have his way.
