A MODERN miracle has been performed
in the discovery of the serum treatment
for the prevention of typhoid fe er. The
records show that during the year 1913
there were only two cases OF typhoid
among the $4,000 officers and men OF the
United States Army who had taken the
serum, and there is some doubt about
even these two. Ia the navy $4,000 men
were vaccinated to make them immune,
and only seven cases Of fever were re-
ported. Four OF these were at remote
tropical station where the serum had de-
Perforated. God is opening the eyes OF
His servants to discover wonderful things
in these latter days.

FROM Philadelphia comes the news
that A. ]. Drexel Biddle, millionaire
clubman and society leader, has turned
over new leaf that really means some
thing. He has announced that though he
at one time drank a quart of whiSkey
a day, he will absolutely cut out all liquor
and will become a total abstainer. He
has thrown away the contents of his
wine cellar, yaued at several thousand
dollars, and says thai he is satisfied that
man is better oil IN every way il he lets
liquor alone. He remarks: 81 don't
condemn men who Drink. but have ar
rived At the con,laSlon that they sci d
bad example" M BIdole has organized
mems Bible class IN holy Trinity Church
and will use his l.nuence TO help his TEL
lowmen in positive way also.
When men OF Mr. Biddle'S standing
thus become awakened 10 sense OF their
duty and responsibility, every body ought
TO take fresh courage.
On the first page OF the Register this
week may De found pithy letter from
Benjamin Harizell, of this place, TO Gov
ernor Hatfield, concerning the State lnsti-
tuition for the Deaf and Blind at Romney.
Mr.. Harzell, who had son in this insti-
tuition, became deeply interested in the
unfortunate children there who are so de-
pendent upon the State, and for a couple
OF years he has been working earnestly
TO have their condition bettered and their
surroundings improved. We fully agree
with him that OF all the institutions foster
ed by the State, this ought to be free
from contamination OF partisan politics.
Mr.. Hartzell's letter is worthy the atten-
lion of the Governor and of the people
generally, and we trust that his persistent
efforts will stir up an interest in the deaf
and blind children who so greatly need
the very best that the State can do for
them.
Let us hope that Governor Hatfield will
not answer MIR. Hartzell's letter as he
did Prescott Huidekoper's. If he had
good reasons for changing superintend-
ents, why not lot the public have them2

TROOPS AND WINTER.

How will the Indian troops stand the
Continental winter? The answer should
not be in doubt. The martial races of
India come mostly from regions which
have very cold winter, some from high
lands where the prevailing temperature
for four or five months OF the year IL
much lower than the average winter
temperature OF France and Belgium.
We have, of course, no of1cial informa-
ton as TO the constitution Of the Indian
forces, but We know that Il consists
largely Of Sflkhs and Gurkhas. for neither
OF whom should the cold Of Europe have
any terrors whaever. The Gurkha is es-
sentially a highlander. accustomed to the
keen air of the Eastern Himalayas and
the plateau Of NepaL He Is extraordin-
arily hardy, suited to almost any climats,
as ready for hard marching or fighting
in the winter as he would have been for
the trials endured by the allied forces In
the first weeks Of the war. I
As q soldier and civilian, good for all
kinds of hardships in cold countries, he
has fought in Northern China, and IL to
be found several thousand strong among
the settlers Of British Columbia support
ing the rigors of the Canadian winter.
His land, the Punjauh. IL country OF
climatic extremes. the enld of December
and january, a. European visitors to the
Duroar camps at Delhi know wen, having
peculiarly searching quality. The Sikh,
moreover Is tempered by his religious
ana social tradition. which imposes on
him strict rule OF life and trains him
10 endure hardship. Still less misgivtng
need be felt on behalf of the Pathans in
the Indian contingent, for, coming from
the mountains Of the frontier, and used
TO climates Of every degree Of severity,
they Should be quite happy In France.
Assuming that the Indian soldiers are as
wen equipped as their European fellows
with clothes and blankets, they should be
equally well able TO face the winter In

DESTINY OF UNITED STATES.

It would seem to be the manifest dss-
tiny Of the United States TO lead in the
establishment of such q league OF peace
The United States Is the world in min
iature. The United States IL the greatest
league Of peace known to history. The
United States Is q demonstration to the
world that all races and peoples OF the
earth can live in peace under one form
Of government and its chief value to civ
ilization is a demonstration Of what this
form Of government Is.
Prior TO the formation ''of a more per-
feet Union our original thirteen States
were united in a confederacy strikingly
similar to that now proposed on an
international scale. They were obliged
by the articles of this confederacy to
respect each others territory and SOW
erignty, to arbitrate all questions among
themselves, to assist each other against
any foreign foe, not to engage in war
unless called upon by the confederation
to do so or actually invaded by a for
tign foe, and not to maintain armed
forces in excess Of the strength fixed
for each Stata by all the States
in Congress assembled.
It is notable that security against AZ
gression from States inside or outside
the American Union accompanied the
agreement to limit armaments. Thus dan
creased contempoFaneously. 1t is also
notable that from the birth Of the re-
public, to this hour, every president OF
the United States has advocated peace
through justice. From the FIRST great
Virginian to the last, all have abhorred
what Thomas Jefferson called the great
est scourge Of mankind"
When the great war Is over and the
United States is called upon to lead the
nations in reconstructing q new order
Of civilization. might not Woodrow Wilson
do on q world scale something similar
to what George Washington did on O
continental scale? Stranger things than
this have happened IN history, Let US
add to the Declaration Of Independence
a declaration Of intsrdepeadence.
