Prejudice.

Nearly everyone is afflicted with
more or less prejudice-and it is an
affliction-and is something that
should be guarded against with great
persistence, for the evil effects Of it
are far reaching. The following
truthful remarks on the subject from
an exchange, are timely and per-
tinent:
DO you know any uglier word'
Is there anything more harmful in
church or state' Does anything
else react more certainly or injun-
ously upon character' Here is a
great movement, we will say for the
general betterment Of society. Be
cause a man may not personally
like the leaders he throws himself
against the movement and thus
hinders to the limit Of his power the
/ progress Of a community because Of
/ his personal prejudice.
! The very best thing young man
can do is to determine that no III will
shall be cherished in his hear
against any man for any cause.

word to become a bitter hateF.

Building A SkyscrapeL

Did you ever notice as you walked
along the city streets the many peo-
pie who stop and look up at the
men at work on the high structures
that are being erected. and no doubt
you catch yourself at times stopping
and looking Up at the men as they
get around with ease in their work
many feet in the air and wonder
how they do in Next time you
happen to be in a city where high
building is being erected, stop and
take notice Of the many people who
stand and look At the work going on
and strain their necks as il they
were going to see some one Of the
workmen come tumbling down to
earth.
The following taken from a city
exchange will prove interesting from
the standpoint Of curiosity Of people;
TO see the skeleton Of a steel
structure put together, bone by bone,
joint by joint-to see little men out
lined against neecy clouds, astride
beams on which they swing IN space
lis a sight that brings thousands to
"a standstill every day and all day
long. There is always a crowd in
the street looking up and every day
looking higher up.
Men jump off street cars, smile
at the watching crowd, and before
they know il have come to a stop,
their heads thrown back, and are
following the lazy course Of a huge
steel plate high in air. What II it
should falll DO they always get
the right stick and does it always
ft' You would almost fancy that
the building had been'taken down
somewhere else and was merely be.
ing fitted together again on this site.
Those who stand and watch do
nof want to talk to each other, but
only to see and think Of the power
that hoists those vast weights, Of
the skin that plans every piece to
fit, and Of the advancement in meth
DDS Of construction evidenced BY
il all.
They are an assorted lot-those
who stand and look. The necks Of
the people must be affected by SO
much craning. Muscles seldom used
are being taxed, and presently doctor,
will be warning patients against
over-indulgenee in it."

Mythical History OF Creation.

Others again that were both male

Of goats, and horns on their heads;

formed behind like a horse and in

with human heads; and horses and
men with the heads Of dogs; and
other animals Of human shape with
fins like fishes; and fishes like sirens;
and dragons, and creeping things,
and serpents, and wild creatures the
images Of which are to be found in
the temple Of Bell. Over all these
ruled a woman Of the name Of
Omorka. But Bell divided the
darkness and Glove the woman

The earth, and Of the other, the sun,

INLAND WATERWAY
ALONG ATLANTIC
Prominent American Points Out
This Country's Great Need For
Such A Waterway-Most I'm
pOrtant Project Outlined.

That waterways are OF value not
only in time Of peace but in time Of
war, and that an inland waterway
along the Atlantic Coast as a means
Of national defense would be Of even
greater value than the Panama
Canal, is the opinion expressed by
Mr.. Theodore Justice, Of Philadel-
phia, whois Commissioner of Fair.
mount Park.
How many Of US realize" said
Mr.. Justice. that but for the sink
ing Of the battleship Maine the Pa
mama Canal would today not even
have been begunl When we were
suddenly facing war we found our
fleet divided, one part in the At
lantic, the other in the Pacific, and
each division liable to being defeated
in detail. The long, hazardous trip
Of the Oregon around Cape Horn
was.a nlattSr q intense anxiety and
aroused the whole nation to the need
Of the Panama Calal as a means Of
national defense, so that, in case of
need, we could unite all our war
ships in one mighty fleet and in
either ocean.
In my remarks before the con-
vention Of the National Rivers and
Harbors Congress in December last,
! pointed out that the question
whether the Panama Canal, which
was wholly paid for by the United
States and is wholly within United
States territory, is to be absolutely
within United States control, had
seemingly become an international
question and had created a situation
that was surcharged with danger,
one that might lead to conflict with
the whole world united against US,
and that this conflict might come
upon US as suddenly as did the
sinking Of the Maine. The danger
which existed at that time has been
multiplied hundredfold by the
situation that now confronts US in
Mexico.
Under such peril our greatest
cities, New York, Philadelphia, Bal.
tmore, and even Washington, the
capital Of the nation, might be al
mercy of united European fleets,
but this danger would be fully
averted If the waterways that now
connect New York harbor with the
Delaware river and Chesapeake bay
were deepened sufficiently to allow
the passage Of the torpedo boats
This inland waterway would be safe
from battleship attack and woulC
have all the advantages of a shcr
inside line from which offensive
warfare might be more safely car
ried on. The benefits indicated fo
the section from New York to Chesa
peake bay would be vastly EXTENDED

Of the entire project, giving a pro
sected waterway the whole lengtI

Herewith men and animals and wild
creatures, who could support the at
mosphere. A great multitude Of
men Of various tribes inhabited
Chaldea, but they lived without any
order like the animals. Then there
appeared to them from the sea, on
the shores Ct Babylonia, a fearful
animal Of the name OF Oan. His
body was that Of fish, but under
the fish's head another head was
attached, and on the fins were feet
like those Of man, and it had a
mans voice. Its image is still pre-
served. The animal came at morn
ing, and passed the day with men.
But il took no nourishment, and at
sunset went again into the sea, and
there remained for the night. This
animal taught men languages and
science, the harvesting Of seed and
fruits, and the rules for the bound
aries Of land, the mode Of building
cities and temples, arts and writings,

lmmenslty OF Our Forests.

According to figures just made
public by the Department Of Agr.
culture nearly eleven million animals
can be grazed on the 100 national
forests during the present year. This
enormous number Of live animals
includes nearly two million head Of
cattle and horses, nine million head
Of sheep and goats and about sixty
five thousand hogs. This means
an increase for the current year Of
about thlrty-eight thousand cattle
and horses and three hundred and
iorty-seven thousand sheep and
goats, although the gross area Of the
national forests at the beginning Of
1914 is almost a million acres less
than at the beginning Of 1913.
For several years past the carry
ing capacity Of the national forest
ranges has been slowly rising.
which, forest officers say, indicates
an Improvement in general grazing
conditions, and a better utilization Of
the forage resources.
On the land recently acquired by
the federal government within the
Appalachian region Of the east,
regulated grazing has been under
taken this year on six distinct areas.
