Virtue al Gentleness.

One OF the fruits of the spirit is
gentleness, says the Ohio State
Journal. Do not think 1t is an in
dolent virtue, having neither intiu-
ence nor power. 1t has an opposite
quality. The mild power has an
easy way.
Select from ones acquaintarces a
person of benign and tranquil de
meanor and you feel at once he has
an influence over you. You like to
be with him. You incline to listen
to him. If, however, he is loud OF
tone and violent of manner, you are
with him as'little as possible. Why?
Because his temper is animal. 1t
does not touch single melody in
ones nature. He is harsh and dis
cordant. That is not one of the
fruits of the spirit which the apostle
commends. 1t is one of the works
of the flesh which the apostle con-
dennis, such as envyings. wrath,
strife, etc,
There is not one of the proscrip-
lions of the Scriptures that gentle
ness practices. 1t belongs to the
spirit, the divine spirit. which ban
ishes loudness and vociferation from
its daily life. 1t may be counter
feited, but that is because it is OF
great worth. One of the best signs
of mans religion is the tone OF
his mind. If that is eruptive and
volcanic he wanders from the true

The establishment of the fact that

No other agent has been discovered
which in any degree approaches its

Porto Rican Coffee.

We Americans, in this luxury low
ing age. have come to look upon what
Were formerly considered luxuries
as common necessities and no longer
give thought as TO where those
things come from, so long as our de-
sires are satisfied. This Is especially
true of coffee, found alike in the
home of the poor and the rich, the
stimulant which spurs us up after a
hard days work or tones down the
digestive organs after a hearty din
ner. We have come to look upon
the berry as a product of the Orient
and few OF us consider that under
our own flag, in a country which is
now part Of the United States,
porto Rico), is grown berry which
has a reputation FOR surprising ex,
jcellence In the old world countries.
Strange to say, the coffee of Porto
Rico, like most other good things of
the island, is better known in almost
any other market of the world than
in the United States, the country to
which this beautiful isle of the sea
has belonged. ever since It's accession
from Spain. Previous to that time,
1888. Spain consumed most of Por-
to Ricos coTee product. Today
Cuba ranks with Spain in the con-
sumption of this article, while other
European countries buy this coffee in
proportion to their custom duties
and commercial facilities. The case
parallels that Of the farmers wife

market and keeps none at home for
family consumption. Americans,
however, when they recognize a
good thing are willing to pay the
price FOR it, and it seems to be simply
Ia lack of knowledge about this prod
uct that denies them coffee raised in
its own country its legitimate
home market.
Coffee is not grown in Porto Rico
in such large quantities as in many
other countries, and the tobbers,
looking for a cheap article to sell at
large profit, do not exploit the island
product as they do the larger con-
signments from countries like Brazil,

Radium and Cancer.

The radlum treatment of cancer
has aroused public discussion only
euualled in sensationalism by the
popular furore over the Friedman
treatment for tuberculosis. That
this subject has some value in the
treatment of cancer cannot be de-
MED, but unfortunately the public
has gotten an exaggerated impress
sion Of its effects and radium has
been hailed as the long-waited spe-
cific cure for malignant disease. In
the belief that statement of results
wop,d be useful, the American Soci-
ETY. Tor the Control of Cancer recent
ly asked DR.. H. H. Janeway, of New
York, to prepare an article on this
subject which has just been pub
published in the Journal of the
American Medical Association.
DR.. Janeway discusses the results
with radium at the four principal
Institutions in Europe where it has
been employed under the most ia.
VoFable conditions, viz, Paris, Lon.
don, Vienna and Heidelberg. The
reports from each of these European
institutes justify the statement that
radfum everts' selective and de-
structive action on the majority Of
cancers, but that this action never
reaches to the more distant extern
sions OF the deeper and more serious
forms of the disease. In fact there
Is good ground for belief that un'
less the greatest care is used in the
application of radium the more dis.
tant portions of the cancer will be
stimulated to more active growth
All users Of radium emphatically ex.

Rican coffee recognize its peculiarly
superior qualities, and demand 1t at
any price. These qualities are not
due so much to the cultivation as to
the soil and climate. In coffee, as in
many other articles, men have at
tempted to remove the properties
recognized as harmful. This in cor
fee is termed caffein, but when this
elimination has taken place by
mechanical processes thu delightful
flavor and aroma of the coffee has
been marred. Nature, however, is a
far greater mechanic and magician
than man, and by an omission of
alkoloids from the soil, she turns
out a coffee weak in caffein but re-
tanning all the other properties
which serve TO make it true nectar
because of its delicacy and aroma.
This is what scientists claim for the
coffee of Porto Rico, and with the
backing of most eminent scientists
and the recommendation given it by
the demand made for it by foreign
countries, it would seem advisable
for Americans to become acquainted
with their own product and an effort
should be made to present its claims
to the home consumer.
The National Coffee Growers Asso-
citation of Porto Rico has recently
started propaganda to introduce
this coffee into American homes,
being sure that when It's superior
merits are recognized. the United
States will no longer allow foreign
markets a nnonoDolv on an article
which is superior to that which we
buy from foreign countries for home
consumption.

Hot Weather MET

Much irritability of the human
race is caused by overindulgence in
unbalanced meals composed Of badly
cooked foods, according to Woman's
World for July.
The modern, thrifty housewife
plans her meals so as to secure the
best diet for her family. During the
hot months, heat-producing foods
fats, starches, heavy buildings and
pies and fried things should not be
eaten, but rather those which are
easily digested and cooling to the
blood.
The business in which the bread
winner of the family is engaged
must be considered when planning
the meals. The man or woman lead
Ing sedentary life requires foods
easy of digestion and assimilation.
This class of people does not re-
Quire as much food as that engaged
in muscular labor. The latter class
needs heavier meals, but these
should be less burdensome than in
winter.
For both classes too much cannot
be said about masticating ones food.
The teeth were made for this pur-
pose and many ills would disappear
if food was not bolted into the stom-
ach, which is too often overtaxed.
Salads rich with mayonnaise or
boiled dressing should never appear
at dinner, but be reserved for lunch
con or supper. Green or fresh vege-
table salads with simple oil and
vinegar dressing are the proper
thing for dinner at all seasons. Po-
tatoes can be eliminated from the
mcnu some days and in their place
substituted macaroni, rice, hominy,
beans, peas and other starchy vege-
tables.

fore maturity he was successful
on the stage; then came twenty

NOW

Today is the 123rd anniversary
Of John Howard Payne's birth.
His song is known throughout
the English-spealzing world and
It rises above all else. including
the sixty plays and operas which
Payne wrote, as a monument to
his memory. Surviving the In
roads OF rag-time, the ballad is
as popular as ever for knitting
home ties. 1t is said to have had
a more universal circulation than
any song ever written. Payne's
body, originally buried at Tunis,
was disinterred after many
years and brought to the
United States for RENTER
ment in Oak Hill cemetery
at Washington, in 1888. The
remains were placed beneath
an appropriate monument which
was unveiled while a great
chorus sang Home, Sweet
