Out in the world of talk one hears
many conflicting opinions. A great
saint once said, who hears the eter-
nal voice is delivered of many an
opinion" You do not need to hear all
the talk, all the various opinions OF
many men, to know true wisdom.
Your own hushed spirit will teach
you wisdom if you will listen. But
in these lonely hours teach yourself
to be ready to love all the vast variety
of life that the world may offer you
at any turning. Encourage big
thoughts and wide sympathies. Re-
member to sympathize even in the 81
lence with the people you read Of and
hear of, who are quite different from
yourself. Try to understand motives
and meanings in alien lives, and II
you do this well enough your loneli-
ness will be turned into the very best
education there is. And when life
calls you some day into its midst as
life surely will some day, your lamp
will be shining and bright and will
shed lovely radiance all about you.
For you will be able to hand on to
others the wisdom that comes with
doves feet.

SKIN TROUBLE ON HANDS

Cassville, Mo.-"My hands and feet
were affected with a trouble similar to
ringworm for a number Of years. It
first appeared as tiny clear blisters
and in places the blisters were SO
close together that they almost formed
one large blister. The skin was rough
and cracked open. At times 1t was
so bad that it disabled me; my hands
became so sore that could scarcely
use them.
II used every remedy that l could
find but nothing seemed to do any
good. Finally / sent for sample Of
Cuticura Soap and Ointment and I
then got a cake of Cuticura Soap and
a box Of Cuticura Ointment which
completely rid me Of the trouble"

The Belgians have taken the Of

The senate and assembly of the

TURK IS REBUKED
ENJOYS COMMENT ON UNITED
STATES AFFAIRS DIsPLEAsEs
PRESIDENT.
BRYAN TAKES HIM TO TASK
Secretary Of State Tells A. Rustem
5ey to Discontinue Giving Inter.
views on Matters of Concern to the
American People.

Washington, Sept. 14.-Dispatches
from Constantinople by way of Rome
announce that the foreign ambassa-
dors, including the German represen-
tative, have informed the Turkish gov
ernment that the powers cannot ac-
cept additions of the treaty rights
accorded foreigners. The American
state department is without official
advices.
Washington, Sept. 14.-Turkey's
conduct has become a matter of con-
Germ to the United States as we'll as
to the allied governments.
Coincidental with the Ottoman gov
ernment's announcement of its abroga-
ton of the conventions and capitula-
tions under which foreigners have
been accorded extra-territorial priv
ileges in Turkish territory the Ger.
man embassy issued an official state
ment alleging that Great Britain, Rus
sia and France had tried to bribe
Turkey to remain neutral.
While this statement was being is
sued Secretary Bryan was having a
conference with the Turkish ambas-
sador, A. Rustem Bey, in which he
suggested to the diplomat the propri-
ETY. of discontinuing his comments in
newspapers on matters of domestic
concern to the United States. Presi-
dent Wilson had asked Secretary
Bryan to call the attention of the
Turkish ambassador to recent state
ments attributed to him in the news
papers and to inquire if they were
authorized.
The president and other officers of
the administration are understood to
have been greatly displeased with
statements made by the ambassador
- prepared interview which he fur
nished to the press.
In that interview the ambassador.
in commenting on reports that Great
Britain and France were trying to get
this government to send warships to
Turkey to protect Christians, said the
thought of daily lynchings in the
South and memory of the water cures
'in the Philippines should make Amer
can newspapers chary of attacking
Turkey in connection with acts of
savagery committed by her. There
were other things in the interview
that were distasteful to the principal
officers of the administration.
1t is regarded as in the highest de-
gree offensive for foreign diplomatic
representative to pass structures on
affairs that. pertain to the country to
which he is accredited.
The recall of the Turkish ambassa-
dor has not been asked by the United
States and there is no desire to ask
for it if the offense is not repeated.

No Formal Campaign OPENING.

Columbus, O.-Departing from a
custom that has always been OBJ
served heretofore, the Democrats
will not hold any formal cam
paign opening this year. An
nouncement of this has lust been
made by Chairman w L. Finley of the
state committee. I'VE have decided
that this would be an unnecessary ex-
pense," said Finley. Gov. Cox will be-
gin his speaking campaign the middle
of this month. His itinerary will be
in charge of the party executive COM
mittee. Unless congress adjourns be-
fore the time for the election, Frank
b. Willis, Republican candidate for
governor, will have little chance to do
much speaking.

SUMMARY OF THE WAR
Written by the Associate Editor of
the Army and Navy
Journal.

The rapid advance of the envelop-
ing movement by which the allies are
turning the German right flank is be-
ginning to have decisive influence
on the German campaign. The re-
ported retreat of the Germans to
Scissors cuts them off from their nat
ural line of communication.
Indeed, the allied move is so threat
ening to the entire rear of the Ger
mans right flank that they have to
consider the alternative of getting
quick results in their attacks on the
French lines or else retire in time
to save their right wing from disas-
ter.
The mention of this turning force
of the allies as British and French
army indicates that the British have
been rushing forward their later ex-
pedltion, via Havre and Dieppe and

Germans, according to this newspaper,
are in retreat toward the Rhine.
An earlier report than this, COM
ing from Basel, Switzerland, was that
the Germans were evacuating Upper
Alsace in order to concentrate their
troops on the eastern border to CON-
bat the Russian advance.
The Germans also were said to
have evacuated Amiens, and the Ger
man commander of the left wing was
said to be directing his retreat with
the evident intention of repassing the
Belgian border east of Lille.
Russians Advance in Galicia.
A Petrograd report to the Mes
sagero of Rome on Friday stated that
battle near Rawa between Russian
and Austrian armies resulted in an
overwhelming victory for the cars
troops after four days of bloody fight
ing. 1t said that large numbers of
German soldiers who were fighting
with the Austrians were prisoners.
AS result of their victory, says
the dispatch, the Russians are masters
of northern Galicia, the Austrians re-
firing everywhere and evacuating
Russian Poland. This will clear the
way for the Russian advance on Ger
many through Galicia.
More Troops for Germans.

at $4,000 men were advancing into
France IN three columns, according
to an Ostend dispatch to the Reuter-
Telegraph company OF London.
Pope Benedict approached Austria
