FROM CONSERVATIVE SWITZERLAND

COMMUNICATING the United States on
~ the quick recovery it made from the
shattering effects of the war, the Swiss
Bankverein issues from Bern a word Of quiet
warning to it's sister republic.
Obviously to staid Continental eyes the
skyrocketing, the playing with finance,
which has characterized Wall Street since
the summer, must appear reckless and fool
hardy. Certainly it takes no care of the to-
morrow, and a sudden end of the war would
find this country as unprepared for peace as
it is obviously unprepared for invasion.
Sanity in finance is vital as sanity in
defense. 1t is because our country is so
great, so prosperous and so fortunate, that
we must doubly safeguard it's interest

Never Deceive an Animal.

In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside appears the follow advice as
to the training of animals:
"You can never train colt. a calf,
or any animal, wild or tame, unless
you gain its entire confidence and af-
lection. To do this you must never
deceive it, not even for fun, and al
ways protect it and show that you
love it.
The way to a mans heart is
through his stomach. and the road
to the affection of an animal is by
way of its taste.
AN apple, a bit Of tender grass,
or some tasty bit will soon make
friends with it, and kind words and
petting will make it a loving and
obedient friend"

A time TO BUILD CHEAP
It's An Ill-Wind That Blows
Nobody Good.

The European War has shut off
practically ali export demand for
lumber. This naturally depresses
the price. As consequence nearly
every character of lumber. and 9TH
er building material, is lower than
for many years.
If you need house. you will save
money to build it now. Not only
is lumber cheap, but contractors are
not busy now, as they will be in the
fall. If you can't get plans made
anywhere else, we will make them
for you. and name you a low price
on your building We are anxious
for work, our men nsed it.
We mean business and our prices
will convince you Of the truth of the
above statement. We will help you
decide upon the arrangement of
your house if you desire. Don't
lose any time. for az soon as peace is
declared. up go prices. Come at once
and talk the matter over with us.

HAD CONFIDENCE IN PEOPLE
California Newsboy Lost Nothing by
Trusting to the Honesty of
His Customers.

Most people are honest; so, at leas,
reasons a newsboy in a California
town, and he has clear justification for
his confidence. The reporter of the
following incident was in a downtown
drug store when a stranger came in
with copy of newspaper. and asked
change for a dime. He said that he
wanted to pay for his newspaper.
Someone remarked that for his part
he let the newsboys find their own
change.
This newsboy cannot do it," said
the man with the newspaper. Come
out here and look at him." Two or
three bystanders stepped to the door.
expecting to see a crippled boy with a
pile OF newspapers to sell. Instead,
they saw tin can with a hole in the
top large enough to admit a nickel;
a pile of newspapers lying upon the
walk, and a card fastened to the can,
reading:
Gone to Sunday school for one
hour. II you want a paper, take one,
and put your nickel In the can"
The can and pile of newspapers
stood unprotected on the walk for
more than an hour. while their little
owner was at Sunday school. Men who
passed by and were attracted by the
rather odd little news stand would
stop, read the sign. pick up paper
and put a nickel-and sometimes
dime-into the little tin can. When the
boy returned from Sunday school he
found all his newspapers gone. and
more nickels in the tin can than there
were papers when he lsft.-Youth's

SPUR OF OTHERS GOOD WORK
Admiration OF Talent One Does Not
Possess Keeps Up Mental and
Spiritual Activity.

II seems a strange part Of om
human nature that we so often adj
mire most the talent we do not pos
sess, remarks the Milwaukee Jour
nal. The singer thinks no art so
great as painting; the painter may
put the highest value on literary
ability, while the authors ideal may
be architecture. Yet this is undoubt-
edly wise provision of nature tend
ing to our growth. If we never saw
anything beyond our present attain
ments, something to which we would
fain reach out, we should live in
grooves. The ruts in our life would
be SO deep there would be no getting
out of them to the free spaces.
People would grow away from each
other; the social life would lose it's
flavor. 1t is seeing things to admire
in others that keeps up our mental
and spiritual activity. The life of
a hermit does not really tend either
to holiness or progress; it is not a
life of usefulness. In such seclusion
one may win a certain sort of con-
tent, but it is the content of living
death.
We need to see things beyond our
present reach to make us strive. We
need the spur of others good worn
to keep us to our best.
