Charles I Added to List of Saints

The name of King Charles I, of Eng
land, is to be added to the Church of
England's calendar of saints, if a
resolution passed by the lower House
of Convoeation of the Province of Can
terbury receives the required sanction
from Parliament. Resolutions of the
convocation have no binding power un-
til they have been legalized 10y the
House of Parliament or unless they
have been made under royal license
The attempt to canonize Charles l has
been made repeatedly. Those advocst-
ing such move see in the kings death
on the scaffold nothing but martyr
dom for the Anglican church and for
parliamentary government. Their OPP
ponents urge that the king merely met
the just deserts of life of political
trickery. For many years during the
early eighteenth century the date of
his execution, January 80, was set
apart for observances and sermons in
memory of the "Blessed Martyr King
Charles.'' -

British Cool Under Fire

This is war of tricks, machines
and devices, writes an officer of the
British general staff in a letter sent
to his home town for publication. "You
would be surprised at the prehistoric
appearance of some of the machines.
We haven t actually fred with bow
and arrows yet, but we have come very
near it. The coolness of the average
British soldier is often remarked by
visiting officers of other armies. I shall
always remember a man whom I saw
yesterday. He had just cooked a tin
of prepared food over a brazier in the
bottom of trench when a large shell
burst just in front of him, scattering
mud, water and stones in every direc.
tion. A lump of mud landed with a
splash in the midst of the carefully
prepared dinner, whereupon the soldier
without turning his head or taking any
notice of the she'll, the shock of which
had been pretty severe, remarked: Il

DYSPEPSIA OVERCOME
Tone Up tho Stomach With Hoods
Sarsaparilla

When you have dyspepsia your life
is miserable. You have bad taste
in your mouth. tenderness at the pit
of your stomach. feeling of puffy
fullness, headache, heartburn, and some
times nausea.
Dyspepsia is difficult digestion
that is what the word means-and the
only way to get rid of it is to give
vigor and tone to the stomach and the
whole digestive system. Hoods Sar
saparilla, sold by all druggists, is the
one medicine which acts on the stomach
through the blood and also directly. Its
beneficial effects are felt at once. I'M
provement begins Immediately.
Hoods Sarsaparilla purifics the
blood, makes the rich red blood that
is needed for perfect digestion, and
builds up the whole system. No other
medicine can take it's place.-Adv.

have his baronetcy revoked, has not succeeded in
his efforts to become plain untitled Edgar Speyer,
for, according to dispatch from London, his re-
quest has been denied
Once baronet aways baronet" is the decision
of the College of Arms, which decrees further that
"Sir Edward may cease to call himself baronet,
but he still remains one and if he had any sons the
eldest would succeed him just the same"
Sir Edgar has the satisfaction of knowing how
ever, that the title which he does not want, even
though it adheres to him throughout his life will
go no farther, for he has no sons The detested
Sir will perish with him. 1t will not be forced
upon innocent heir.
The title of baronet gives the holder a rank
lower than the peerage proper but higher than the
knighthood. Except for the provision that it be
hereditary it is much like an order of knighthood,
carrying with it no membership in the House of
Lords other political privileges money pay
ments. About all that really does go with it is the
honor it seems, and to democratic ways of thinking
that amounts to little.
1t is unfortunate that Sir Edgar Speyer cannot
get rid of his baronetey if he wants to- When a
man is unable to detach title from his own name
when he so desires, that title does not appear to
have conveyed to him much authority but to be in
llS reldtlOn 10 MIN rdtHer ike a Dau reputation
which refuses to be shaken off
In England, as matters now stand, after the acci-
dent of birth has given to subject of the king
hereditary title, he can more get rid of it than
can subject having peasant parents take on such
title. The former is unfortunate than the
latter He is bound by the conventions of his coun
try to retain his title all through his life in that
country He is not free man, for he is prohibited
from altering in the least the given prefix to his
given name, and is compelled to burden his eldest
son, if he has son, with that prefix when he is
gone. An ordinary Englishman, like any free Amer
lean, has the privilege of doing with his own name
as he fit, and is not forced to hand down to
his eldest son any dstasteful title.
There is keen foresight, perhaps in the refusal of
the College of Arms to revoke titles. England's
titles of nobility part of its monarchical form
of government and if all the titled persons of the
country who honestly feel that they ought to dis
pense with the prefxes to their names were to make
demands to that effect the present form of govern
ment would not be likely to last very long. The
titles of King and Queen and Prince and Princess
would soon after be done away with too.

One day, while Willie and Harry playing in field

Saved From Insanity Stigma

| The text of the Cecil Harmsworth
bill removes the stigma of insanity
from soldiers temporarily deranged as
the result of nervous exhaustion has
been made public in London Under
its provisions, a soldier or sailor whose
mind is unbalanced by wounds, shock
or similar causes, can be treated with
out being certified insane, provided the
period does not exceed six months and
the privilege is not abused. It's terms
apply to all persons, but are designed
especially to protect the men of the
service For many years English alien
lists have been trying to bring about a
reform in the treatment of the insane
through the early treatment of incipi-
ent and undeveloped disorder. Scotland
has had "a much more liberal law than
England in this respect for the last
half century. Commenting on the bill.
which has been criticised as weaken
ing public protection against the insane
the "Lancet' SAYS:
"The interest awakened thereby
should do much to promote a more SYM
pathetic attitude toward the general
problem of the treatment of the in
sane, and should materially assist the
efforts of those alienist physicians who
are striving to break down the artif-
cial and mschievous barriers which. in
popular belief, and to regrettable
extent even in medical practice, sepa-
rate insanity from other conditions of
disease.''
