MIGHTY POWER OF LOVE
Great Truth In Words Which Emer-
son Is Put on Record as
Having Spoken.

1t was Emerson who said, "An ac-
ceptance of the sentiment of love
throughout Christendom for a season,
would bring the felon and the outcast
to our side in tears, with the devotion
of his faculties to our service. Love
would put new face on this weary
old world, in which we dwell as pa
gans and enemies too long, and it
would warm the heart to see how fast
the vain diplomacy of statesmen, the
impotence of armies and navies and
lines of defense, would be superseded
by this unarmed child" Alas that
the sentiment has not been accepted,
but instead the world and the indi-
vidual have been laying their plans,
and directing their action, by a calcu-
lation of chances which, of course,
can be no bigger than the human
mind that does the calculating. That
love has not been tried is proved
by the collapse of commercial civili.
cation, but the things of commerce
and of calculation perish, while the
sentiment of love endures, because il
is of God, and being of God, is sure
in the end to triumph, -Universalist
Leader.

BOTH Adopts IN DECEIT
How Signals Arranged For Between
Soldier and His Wife Really
Were Carried On.

The captain had not been long mar
ried when he was ordered into camp.
To be sure, the camp was in plain
view of the captains residence, but
then it was still separation; and to
tighten this terrible condition 1t was
arranged that the bereaved husband
and wife should signal to each other
often with their handkerchiefs. 1t was
on the second day that the young wife
was seated on the porch reading. "Tell
me, jane" said she, "is the captain
still signaling?" "Yes, maam," an.
swered the maid. "Then keep waving
your handkerchief. l want to finish
this novel," At the same time, in
camp an officer from an adjoining
company stepped up to the captain.
81 say, old fellow" he asked, why do
you keep that man out there all day
waving handkerchief" "Oh, it's
merely bit of signal-code practice for
him"

few nights ago down near Poplar way,
where she was presiding over two

ners of hot stew, potatoes and fruit
pudding with bread, butter and tea

DYCRE GAVE ALL 10 STATE
Scientist Left No Income for His
Widow and ChiIdren-Need Finan-
cial Support Now.

The late Prof. L. l.. Dyche, who
spent his life making collection of
North American mammals for the Uni
-versity of Kansas, which is valued at
100000, left his wife and children
without an income when he died sud-
denly last January. Unless she re-
ceives financial support, Mrs. Dyche
may be compelled to cut short her chill
dren's education and withdraw them
from the university.
Professor Dyche made twenty-three
expeditions to various parts of North
America gathering specimens for the
museum of natural history at the Uni
versity of Kansas. While ON those
trips he was on the faculty of the uni
versity and received regular pay as
a professor with the understanding
that the specimens gathered were to
be the property of the institution. No
one at that time dreamed that his col
lection would become the second in
size and completeness in the country.
Friends have suggested to Mrs.
Dyche that she ought to receive an
income from the university in con-
sideration of the fact that her hus-
band spent his best days in its serv-
ice and risked his life numberless
times for the meager salary of col
lege professor.
Shortly after Professor Dyche's
death bill was introduced into the
legislature providing that the univer-
sity fees be RENTED to Professor
Dyche's children, but it was not
passed. Last April Chancellor Frank
Strong of the University of Kansas,
the state board of administration and
Governor Arthur Capper petitioned
the Carnegie Foundation for a wild
ows pension for Mrs. Dyche, but as
the University of Kansas was not af-
filiated with the foundation, the rules
of the foundation did not permit
granting it.

HOW TO HEAL STUBBORN
TORMENTING SKIN DISEASES

A Baltimore doctor suggests this
simple, but reliable and inexpensive,
home treatment for people suffering
with eczema, ringworm, rashes and
similar itching, burning skin troubles.
At any reliable druggists get a jar
of resinol ointment and cake Of resi-
mol soap. These will not cost bit
more than seventy-five cents. With
the resinol soap and warm water bathe
the affected parts thoroughly, until
they are free from crusts and the skin
is softened. Dry very gently, spread
on thin layer of the resinol oint-
ment, and cover with light bandage
If necessary to protect the clothing
This should be done twice a day. Usu-
ally the distressing itching and burn
ing stop with the first treatment, and
the skin soon becomes clear and
healthy again.-Adv.

Use AeropIanes to Hunt Seals.

Difficulty experienced this past sea-
son in locating seal herds in northern
waters has caused the owners of seal
ing ships to give serious considera-
tion to employing aeroplanes in next
years hunt. These craft of the air,
they believe, can scout more cheaply
and with less waste of time than the
sealing ships themselves. Small aero
planes. designed especially for the
purpose, are looked upon as entirely
feasible. Through their use, seal
herds will be located and reported to
the vessel, which can then make for
the spot indicated.

The classes he said were Brahmans.

from the defenders of the country.
and who had their " division in

and the outcasts who were prisoners
taken in foreign wars and who were

Internal Strife.
Mr.. Meek said that there is a con
slant internal strife between the
Brahmans and the warriors for as
cendancy in their respective commun-

in great numbers due to the distaste
OF some TO do the work OF others.
There Is a feeling that certain kinds

sweep the floor, or the man who does
the cooking will not wash the dishes"
As TO their religion he said the COW
