Where the Road Is Water.

that Scheidam and similar places, though
thrilling. were not the whole of Holland,

lakes and channels that hold Friesand
in a sort of permanent baptism we came
to what was for me the ideal or celestial
Holland-everything done by water, even
grass cut under water, and black and
white cows MIXED in the midst of ponds,
and windmills over the eternal fairness
used exclusively to shift inconvenient
water from one level to another. The
road is water in Fresland and all the
world is on the road. If your approach
to a town is made perilous by success

in the middle of the channel. you know
that it is market day in that town and

How connie" Mack Arouses Confdenc
In His Players.

In the June American Magazine
Eddie" Collins, the wonderful second
baseman of the Philadelphia Athletics
writes an article entitled Connie Mack
land His Mackmen." in which he tells
many inside facts and stories about the
great Philadelphia baseball magnate. He
| saws that Mack never tears down and
ALWAYS builds up. and that he is in
genious in his methods of inspiring con
fidence in his men. The following story
taken from the article illustrates this
point:
There comes to me an incident in which
he built McInnss confidence wonder
fully when Stuffy' was still doing bench
duty In a game against Chicago, a
critical situation was looming up. In
the eighth inning the score was to
4 against us. After two were out. Barry
singled and Lapp came to bat. BY this
time Mack was beginning TO fidget and
squirm uneaesily in his seat, something
he always does when the crisis OF a
game seems about to break. ! heard
Harry Davis, who was then captain,
say:
"'Conniel Are you going to let
bat 2"
Davis had mentioned the pitcher, a
VIGOROUSLY weak hitter. saw McIn-
mis- watching Mack out of the corner of
his eve. The youngster trembled eager
ly, hoping for chance to go to bat in
the pinch, and think Mack saw him
too, for he said to Davis rather loud
ly:
You know very well who is going
to hit if Lapp gets on. There's only one
man I'd put up-eh?'
Davis inclined his head toward Me-
Innis and Mack nodded. McInnis saw
all this, as Mack meant he should. Sub
sequently Lapp smashed out two base
hit putting Barry on third and McInnis,
told to 90 TO bat, rushed out from the
dugout swelling with confidence He had
heard Mack as much as say there was
no other man on the team he would
trust in this pinch but me. McInnis
at that moment possessed over
whelming self-conidence. A moment
later he drove out the hit that won the
game. Nlack's little bit of diplomacy
had met with success"

Congress Playing Fayorites.

| Three provisions of bills now pending
in Congress obviously involve rank dis.
elimination. The sundry civil appro-
priations bill, in making its annual as
signments of money for sundry expenses,
| appropriates a certain sum for the de-
partment of Justice to use in enforcing
the antitrust laws, and specifically pro-
hibits the use of any of this money to
prosecute labor and agricultural combi-
nations. The Clayton antitrust bill,
which has already passed the House, has
been amended so as TO exempt labor and
agricultural combinations from prosecu-
ton under the antitrust act; also to
forbid the courts from using the ordi-
nary process of injunction against GER
tain specified methods employed by la
Dor unions in conducting strikes. The
discrimination is very closely akin In
each of the three proposals.
1t is 4 fine exhibition of equal Justice
to all to appropriate money for the en-
forcement OF antitrust laws and then
prohibit the aw-enforcing authority
from using the money in prosecuting
certain favored organizations. Our laws
are made for all and should not favor
any one or two classes of citizens at the
expense of the others.
Just what President Wilson would do
if faced with the alternative of signing
one of these bills is uncertain, but in
speaking of similar amendment he
once said that il was "unjustifable in
character and principle"
1t is the great game of playing poll
tics which induces the members of Con-
gress to champion discriminatory bills
like these. The congressman are think
ing about the next election, and by
throwing sop to certain of their con-
stituents hope to gain votes for re-elee-
tion.-Brattleboro Reformer.

BANKERS
DISCUSS
COTTON
HOLD STAPLE FOR BETTER PRl-
CES. STATE HAS ADEQUATE
LAW. BUT FEW WAREHOUSE
ASSOCIATIONS ORGANIZED,

Oklahoma City, Okla, Aug. 22.-Ok-
lahoma City bankers and business
men are considering the cotton ques-
tion and planning how to conserve the
intrinsic value in the staple that is
soon to come in the market against
the time when it will be worth the
money To this end the Bankers
Association will meet perhaps tomor
row. The traffic association of the
chamber of commerce will consider
the problem Tuesday in regular ses-
sion A committee will be designated
to confer with Gov Cruce as to meth
ods which the state may pursue to
help with the cotton situation
II is understood that the governor
is willing to cooperate to the fullest
extent, but it will require "A mighty
| convincing argument to induce him to
assemble the legislature. Oklahoma
| has an adequate warehouse law, but
| it has few if any warehouse associa-
tions. One of the problems that is
to be considered here is that of pro-
viding storage for the cotton that may
| be placed in bonded warehouses un-
der some plan of the state or federal
| government. The buildings of the
| Oklahoma Fair association in this city
|
will be Immediately available after the
fair, and that will be in time for the
crop of this vicinity.
Secretary f. L. Brown of the Okla.
| hOma chamber of commerce is active
in efforts to secure action in concert
with a view to holding the cotton crop.
He is leader of the movement here.
A meeting of cotton seed oil men
and gin owners was also held here
today, at which plans for cotton mar
keting were discussed. A committee
of cotton men called on Gov. Cruce
| to discuss the situation as to cotton
1marketing and cotton prices. The
meeting was well attended but the
results accomplished were very slight
w, II, Coyle of Guthrie described il
as milling around in the air"
The meeting sent a telegram to the
Oklahoma delegation in congress urg-
ing that they all use their influences
toward a solution of the difficulty in
the meeting which is to be held in that
city Monday. The commercial inter
ests of this city were today asked to
send a delegation consisting of one
| banker and one cotton man to attend
this meeting. This will be done.

"Woman's Missionary Council"

The committee on cooperation in
Latin America called conference
of mission board secretaries and mis-
sionaries in Cincinnati June 80 and

work in Mexico. Bishop Lambuth
was chairman of the meeting, and our
church was represented by Miss Ben
nett, Miss NJ. L. Gibson, Miss Esther
Case, Miss Leila Roberts, Miss Head,
Rev. Ed F. Cook, Rev. G. B. Winton,
Rev. N. f. Joyner, Rev. Frank On
derdonk There was an attendance
of about seventy, representing eleven
denominations. 1t was a meeting of
great power
The following are some of the facts
brought out at this meeting: Out of
the thirty states in Mexico, fifteen
have no mission work. In these fif-
teen states there is a population of
about fifteen million. Half the states
and one-third the population are yet
unreached by any form of mission
work. There are 70 mission stations,
223 foreign missionaries. 562 native
workers; 80 high schools, with an
enrolment of 4,053. These are, Of
course, the figures of last year, as
practically all missionaries are now
out of Mexico, and for months the
work has been seriously interrupted.
The conference agreed on certain
recommendations that will be present
ed to the mission boards.
Some Changes.
Miss F. B. Moling, for many years
at San Luis Potosi, Mexico, has been
transferred to Cuba and appointed
principal of the Eliza Bowman school
at Cienfuegos. Miss Hattie Carson
who has been in charge of the Eliza
Bowman school for some years, has
been granted a furlough for rest and
study.
Miss Rebecca Toland, principal of
our school at Matanzas, will also take
a furlough this year. In her absence
Miss Belle Markey will be in charge
of the school.

Mothers Friend
This is an external application to
enable the abdominal muscles to become
more plant, TO expand naturally without
undue pain from the strain upon cords
and ligaments.
In almost every settled community are
women who have enjoyed the blessing Of
this famous remedial and helpful embro-
cation. Their daughters have grown up
to learn of its splendid assistance.
Applied as directed upon those muscles
involved 1t soothes the fine network OF
nerves with which al the muscles are
supplied. Thus a great share of the pains
so much dreaded may be avoided and the
period of expectancy passed through in
ease and comfort.
Anything that adds so much comfort
must be counted as a blessing indeed.
