WHEN WAR is SILENT
HAS NO soPHIsTRY WITH WHICH
TO CONFRONT WOMAN
Great as Must Be Acknowledged Arc
Hls Powers Of Deception They
Fall In the Presence of the
Mother Of the Slain.

War sat on a high place near the
city named Earth. where all who
passed along the highway called Life
could see him as they went on their
journeys. Among those who took their
eyes from the ground was King. When
be saw War he stopped.
Who are you that sits beside the
highway of Life?" asked King.
War answered:
II am Power, and Dominion, and
Pride. am the maker and unmaker
Of dynasties. ! set up and pull down
the rulers of Earth, the great city in
which you dwell. BY me wealth and
strength are apportioned, dishonor is
redeemed, right is made plain, and
Justice is done"
So King went his way, thinking,
War is good"
Soon there came Young Man, and
be too asked who War was.
War said:
Il am Adventure and Daring, Bold.
ness and Hardihood. bestow renown
and distinction on men. Those who
follow me grow brave of spirit and
hard of body. They learn the happi'
ness that comes from ardent toll. the
joy that is born of struggle. The peo'
pie Of Earth look with greatest favor
on those who enroll themselves in my
record book and reward them with the
first consideration"
Young Man whistled as he followed
the highway called Life, and cried
aloud, WAR is noble!"
Next Old Man, weak of sight and
hard of hearing, peered at War and
said: who are you, up there?"
To Old Man War replied:
81 am Memory and the Thoughts OF
Yesterday. it was who filled your
heart with friends and clothed your
mind with the good memorials OF
glorious past. / took from you your
arm, but in its place l gave you some
thing far better, the service of a de-
voted friend. BY me you were made
poor in pocket, to beg your bread as
you walked the highway called Life
but in exchange gave you the great
days of your manhood to comfort and
sustain you" ,
Old Mans face was lighted by his
thoughts of the brave days when he
knew War, and as he set one foot be
fore the other he chuckled, and struck
his thigh with his hand, and mumbled
in his beard: 'I mind now that Wal
is the great thing"
But then there came on the high
way called Life Woman, who ha6
borne sons that War had destroyed
and daughters who had wept upon hel
skirts for their husbands that Wal
had torn from them; Woman, whC
had dried the ears of orphans Wal
had made and stanched the blood o.
wounds that War had given; Woman
who had mourned Wars dead, ant
starved that War might eat.
And Woman saw War and asked
him nothing, but fled shrieking away
from him on the highway called Life
and as Woman fed from him War was
silent, for he had no words to speak,

September and October is the fall
narrowing season. The little pigs com.
ing into existence now are very in
significant animals, but will be ex-
pected to help out in paying expenses
next spring; consequently proper
management is necessary, otherwise
they will fall short just at the time
you are expecting them to count.
The first few days the SOW and her
litter should be closely confined in
warm, sunny quarters until each lit
tie pig gains its strength and is able
to battle for it's existence among the
other more sturdy brothers and Sis
ters.
Many little pigs are delicate for a
few days, but if they are given lit
tie special care just at the proper time
they will commence to grow with the
strongest, and the result is a nice,
even, growthy, litter, which is always
more satisfactory and more profitable.
If the litter consists of eight or zen
and they grow very rapidly there is a
very increasing demand on the SOW to
nourish the hungry youngsters, and
unless she is very literally fed she

Many Uses Of RIottIna Paper.

Blotting paper has many other uses
besides the absorption of ink. If
grease is spilled on a rug or carpet
cover the spot with piece of blotting
paper and place warm iron, not hot,
over the spot. Grease on the wall may
be removed by covering with blotting
paper and pressing with warm iron.
Fine lace and collars may be quickly
dried by being placed between two
sheets of blotting paper and covering
with weight. If you are short on
rubber rings when canning, blotting
paper rings will serve just as we'll as
rubber. There are many more uses
for blotting paper which will suggest
themselves to the alert housewife.

The government Of Chile mas three
branches: Executive, cOnSistil 6 of the
president and his cabinet; legislative,
comprising the two branches of Con-
gress, and judicial, embracing the
courts. The country is divided into
provinces, which correspond TO our
states, and departments, that may
be compared to u counties. The
president appoints h governors OF
the provinces and the chief officers
Of the countries. They in turn ap-
point the officials under them, so that
the president practically controls the
civil service Of the country. He also
controls the courts, appointing the
Judges and their subordinates, with
the approval of the council of state.
The courtS are like ours in some
respects and different in oilers. There
is a. supreme court at the capital,
which superviseS all the Other courts
of the republic. There are six courts
of appeal, one in each Of the principal
| cities, and there are minor courts
scattered over the %ountry There is
no Jury system except in the cases
where the freedom of the press has
been abused. All trials are before one
or more judges, the government being
represented by public prosecutors.
The police are under the , troll OF
the minister Of the interior, and seem
to be very we'll managed. Police ex-
penses are paid out of the national
treasury.

Gotham Bout Is Still Hanging
Fire, Mcfarland Holding Out
for $4,000 Guarantee.
By I'D

NJ EW YORK, Jan. z7-Nothing
has been settled regarding the
proposed battle between Packev
Mcfarland and Mike Gibbons, de-
spite assertions in Chicago that the
details have been arranged. It il
true that several weeks ago the men
reached an agreement to box at las
pounds, scaling at 4 o'clock, and ia
decide the question of supremacy In
tnis city. But that is as far as nego-
tlatlons have progressed. No date
mas been fixed for the bout, and it is
said that the principals are at odds
over the division of the spoiIs.
According to the latest informa-
ton, Mcfarland wants $4,000
guarantee to meet Gibbons for ten
rounds. Packey thinks the bout will
draw 100000, but he doesn't seem
willing to accept the usual percent
age. 1t is said that he also insists
upon $1,000 forfeit from Gibbons To
guarantee weight, which the latter is
unwilling to post. Gibbons is salts
fed to take % per cent of the re-
ceipts, but Mcfarland, if he can not
get $4,000 guarantee, says he will
insist upon 35 per cent of the gate. as
he considers that he is the bigger
drawing card, and also should receive
more money than Gibbons for under.
taking what appears to be a danger.
Gus task.
Gibbons friends say that his de,
cisive victory over Bob McAllisteI
has made Mcfarland put on his

far as to predict that there will be nc
