trouble came to a head In the
forecastle. II took it's rise out
of the tittle-tattle and tale-bear-
ing which had been the cause of
Johnson's beating, and from the
noise We heard, and from the
sight of the bruised men next day,
1t was patent that half the fore
castle had soundly drubbed the
other half.
The second dog-watch and the
day were wound up by fight
between Johansen and the lean,
Yankee-looking hunter, Latimer.
1t was caused by remarks of Lati-
mer's concerning the noises made
by the mate in his sleep, and
though Johansen was whipped,
he kept the steerage awake for
the rest of the night while he
blissfully slumbered and fought
the fight over and over again.
AS for myself, l was oppressed
with nightmare. The day had
been like some horrible dream.
Brutality had followed brutality,
and flaming passions and cold
blooded cruelty had driven men
to seek one another's lives, and
to strive to hurt, and MAIN, and
destroy. My nerves were shocked.
My mind itself was shocked. All
my days had been passed in COM
parative ignorance of the ami
mality of man. In fact, had
known life only in its intellectual
phases. Brutality / had expert
enced, but it was the brutality OF
the intellect, the cutting sarcasm
of Charley Furuseth, the cruel cpl.
grams and occasional harsh With
cism of the fellows at the
Bibelot, and the nasty remarks of
some of the professors during my
undergraduate days.
That was all. But that men
should wreak their anger on

something strangely and fearfully

WASHINGTON.-According to the
belief in official circles, the choice OF
a counsellor of the state department
to succeed Robert Lansing lies be-
tween John w. Davis Of West Nir-
ginia, now solicitor general of the
United States, and A Mitchell Palmer
of Pennsylvania, who was appointed
a judge Of the court of claims, but has
not taken the oath Of office. Ii is the
impression here that if Mr. Davis is
made counsellor Mr. Palmer will have
chance TO become solicitor general
Mr.. Davis and Mr.. Palmer are COM
paratvely young. Both are lawyers
and have had considerable experience
in the house of representatives.
1t was said by friends Of Mr.
Palmer that he was in thorough SYM
pathy with the foreign policy of the
administration developed as a result

Acid StOmachs Are
Dangerous
Common Sense Advice by a DIstIn-
Euished Specialist.


Acid" stomachs are dangerous be-
cause acid irritates and inflames the
delicate lining of the stomach, thus
hindering and preventing the proper
action Of the stomach. and leading TO
probably nine-tenths OF the cases OF
stomach trouble from which people SUI
fer. Ordinary medicines and medicinal
treatments are useless in such cases.
for they leave the source OF the trouble
the acid in the stomach, as dangerous
as ever. The acid must be neutralized.
and its formation prevented, and the
best thing for this purpose is a tea
spoonful OF bisurated magnesia. a sim
pie antacid, taken i'm q little warm or
cold water after eating. which not only
neutralizes the acid. but also prevents
the fermentation from which acidfty is
developed. Foods which ordinarily
cause distress may be eaten with i'm
punity If the meal is followed with a
little bisurated magnesia. which can be
obtained from any druggist. and should
always be kept handy.-Advertis

The states motion FOR a change OF

Now comes the plaintiff in this
cause, by its attorney general and dis

change the venue Of this cause to some

The court heard the argument OF

the following ruling:
The court has knowledge OF what IT.
the opinion OF the court is sufficient
facts TO warrant the court in believing
beyond any doubt whatever that a fair
ana impartial jury can not be secured
in the county OF OterO TO try this case
The court knows that this case has not
only caused q great deal OF excitement
but has engendered bitter feeling.
The court might require the state to
produce affidavits in support % its mo-
tion. and might further require that the
parties making the affidavits be
brought into court TO testify in support
Of the affidavits so made. but the court
is Of the opinion that such action could
serve but one purpose. and that is TO

On Keeping Ones Word.

Reliability comes very near to being
the cornerstone of character. At least,
it is anindispensable element. And re-
liability is nothing more than the, in
tegrity of ones word. The man who is
''as good as his word" is the one you can
rely on; the man who is careless of his
work, regardless of all other consider
atoms, needs to be watched. And he IL
always at little disadvantage as com
pared with the other fellow.
Men risk good dealt in juggling with
truth. They risk their standing in life.
Cleverness in the shading of meanings,
in coming statements susceptible of a
double construction, may be shrewd
and cunning, but, paradoxically. it is
also dull and stupid. Every mans word
should be as good as his note, better be-
cause under certain unavoidable cir
cumstanees a man might be rendered
unable to meet his note, but he car. al:
ways keep his word invioIate.
All of which. tough said before. will
bear repeating many. many times.
One of the best times to repeat it is
while character is in the making.

They grow SO fast when they start to

She looks back over the years!
Only her lad. and il doesn't seem long
Since he whistled and played with a
snatch of song,
And needed her yes and needed her no
He was only lad awhile ago!
She looks him over from lead to heel,
You can see what a light of pride shall
steal
Into her eyes as she finds man
Standing there in her tender scan
Only her lad, and here ne stalks
AS tall as his father, and where he walks
Her eyes in wider pleasure grow
He was only lad awhile ago!
Only lad and now he stands
Measuring up to her utstretched hands,
Measuring over her beating heart
Only her lad to do his part
In the work and the winning that wait
for him
Out where the world glows bright or
dim,
Out where the cares and the troubles
glow
He was only a lad awhile agol
