that first aid would be given by the
cruiser Raleigh. The San Diego,
crippled by recent boiler explo-
sion, would be unable to make fast
time to the wreck near Turtle bay.
Admiral Howard said the Asa1na
was about $50 miles south of Port
San Caroline, but inquiries for
further details had brought no re-
spouse.
The gunboat Yorktown, at En-
senada, was nearer the scene of the
wreck than any other American ma
val vessel, but navy officials said it
probably would not start for the
scene of the wreck.
The Asama, an armored cruiser
of $3.50 tons, was built in 1898.
For several months it has been pa
trolling the eastern Pacific. Early
in the war it forced the German
gunboat Geier to intern at Honolu-
lu by taking up a position outside
the harbor while the Geier was in
port for provisions.

Without Price.

C. w. Williams, at one time OWL
er of fast horses with headquarters
at Independence, is now an evange-
list and is quite successful. Many
Webster City people are acquainted
with Mr.. Williams and will be in
terested in what he is doing. He
heads party of five persons and
refuses to accept money for his SER
vices. THE Lord has abundantly
paid me-" he told committee from
an Illinois city where his party is
engaged in special meetings, "and l
will ask no contributions for my
work nor the services of my associ-
ates" The workers include Mr.. and
Mrs. Williams, two singers and a
pianist, and the evangelist pays
their salaries out of his own pocket.
Mr.. Williams in recent years has &C
quired a large tract Of land in Can
ada, which is operated by his sons.
They are reputed to be wealthy. Of
course, evangelists of moderate
means, or no means at all, cannot be
expected to labor without pay, but
it is fine thing for a man to en-
gage in evangelistic work without
price when he is amply able to do
SO.

PUTTING YOURSELF IN YOUR
HOUSE

A fat-dwelling friend of the writer's
felt a special aversion for the reading
table in her sitting-room. 1t was too
small, and 1t was too fancy" She
could not afford new one of better
design. Finally, in desperation, she
bought an ordinary straight-leg pine
table, like the one in her kitchen.
and stained it a soft brown with a
reliable wood stain (Which did all it
was advertised to do) and waxed
furniture polish did the rest. The
fancy" table was put in the attic.
Next she made for her new piece of
furniture a long table-runner of coarse
brown linen, stenciled in orange and
browns at either end. Several much
dilapidated plush chairs were given
loose slip covers of pretty cretonne.
at fifteen cents per yard, and a green
stood on her writing desk was re-
placed by a common earthen mince-
meat jar in which she put bunch of
"bitter-sweet." with its orange berries.
The effect was charming. The petty
ornaments that had made the top of
her piano look like a bric-a-brack
counter were given, or hidden, away,
and only a pair of candlesticks and a
few good books left there. Little by
little, piece by piece, this woman
made over" and refurnished at amaz-
ingly little cost, until what had been a
room of on-descriptive character be-
came a restful, beautiful living-room
and-what was more-an index to her
real self.-The Christian Herald.

WY rAEv LOSE

Now and then somebody tells us how
much money this or that man lost
by Investing in ''tanoy" stock and he
naturally concludes that the stock Is
to blame. No doubt so.ae persons
hare dropped part Of their cash by
putting it into pure-bred livestock. but
the fault was In themselves and not
In the stock or the business of rails
ing 1t for sale, During the past
twenty five years we have seen many
men invest money in pure-bred live
stock. Some Of them never got 1t out
again: others with no better oppor-
tunities built up good herds or focks
and established profitable trade.
There are = few reasons In plain
view for most Of the failures. First
is the lack of real interest In the
stock. No man who has not real
liking for livestock should ever expect
10 become q successful breeder of 1t.
He would better save his money ard
put it into something he likes. An
other common reason for failure is
lack of confidence In the business.
Many q breeder stops short Of success
because he does not persevere under
encouragement. Expectation that
blood will overcome lack Of feed and
care Is . frequent cause of failure.
Improved animals have come to us by
careful selection and by liberal feed
ing-not by neglect of either; and they
must be prepetuated by the same
methods as developed them. One Of
the most frequent causes Of failure
with pure-bred stock is dependence on
the idea that the stock will sell itself.
It will not do so. The public must be
informed rs to Its whereabouts and its
merits II the breeder expects to secure
a profitable price for it. Perhaps more
breeders fail here than anywhere else.
They have the courage to buy good
foundation stock, the skin to breed
it and the disposition to feed it, but
they lack to let the world know about
it. These of course are not all the
reasons why men may fail with pure
bred stock, buy they are among the
most common and potent reasons.
The amateur who is now investing his
money in improved animals should
consider them.

EDUCATION

Boys are hard to educate; what's
good for a boy is so apt to be
less than his father can pay for and
more than his mother thinks his con-
stitution will stand. The public
schools are about right for boys, but
most people prefer private schools,
where their sons won't be guyed If
they travel in special cars and have
q valet or two apiece.
Girls are easier-for the reason, no
doubt. that woman knows how to
play bridge and smoke cigarettes can
always make figure socially In ad-
dition, however, girls from a first
class finishing.school are often able to
tell good smoking-room stories.

THE FIGHTING IS DESPERATE.

London, Feb. 6.-Coincident with
the arrival at the front OF Emper-
or Nicholas, the Russians have as
sumed the offensive directly west Of
Warsaw and, according to Rus
sian official statement, have crossed
the Buzura river and taken some
German positions.
This, in the opinion of military
experts, will, if the Russians have
sufficient forces at their disposal,
break the deadlock which has ex-
listed in the battle in central Poland
for so many weeks, since it threat
ems the flank of General Won HiE-
denburg's army, which is engaged
in the violent struggle Immediately
to the southwest in an effort to
break down the Russian defensive
in the region of Borjimow.
The Russians appear, according
to reports from Petrograd, to have
crossed the BZura near it's junction
with the Vistula and, working
southwark, have taken part of the
German position near Dakhova,
south of Sochaczew, which was the
point at which the Germans made
their original attempt to break the
Warsaw line.
This new offensive on the part Of
the Russians explains their anxiety
to clear the right bank of the low
er VStula of the Germans, for, hav-
ing accomplished this, they are free
of threats Of an outflanking move
ment from that direction.

4 DISAPPOINTING CITY

Probably no modern city is more
disappointing to the expectant travel
or than is Jerusalem. We think of it
in its ancient glory; we picture to
our imagination the magnificent tenn
pie with its golden roof and the other
buildings of the hill of Zion. We read
of its being the rendezvous in Pass
over times of q million pilgrims, and
we naturally think Of it as an enor-
nous city. comparable to London or
New York Of the present day. We
think of it in its Oriental setting Of
two thousand years ago, but as we ap-
proach in a modern railway train, and
climb the steep ascent which leads to
the city behind an American engine,
our illusion disappears.
At last the guard calls out "Jerus-
alem!" and we disembark mile from
the city, get into rickety modern
hack, which has evidently done duty
In some more civilized community,
and are bounced over the rough roads
and the intolerable cobblestones with

landed at our modern hotel, SO diff
ferent from the khan Of ancient times.
And here our disillusion has begun
The city of which we read of accom-
modating q million guests on the feast
days could hardly to-day entertain q
thousand strangers within its walls,
and, since q multitude of pilgrims
come every year from Russia and Italy
and France and Germany, these ma
lions have erected great hostels out
side the walls for the accommodation
of pilgrims. But these, fine and even
magnificent a they are, take us not
back to the Jerusalem of two thou
sand years ago, but tell IN only Of the
modern city where half dozen great
nations are building these hostels and
hospitals in order to gain political and
commercial advantage, and patiently
awaiting the time when they can GUST

Toxic, Japan, Feb. 6.-An official
report received in Toxic on the loss
of the cruiser Asama, off the west
ern coast of Lower California, says
that all the officers and members of
the crew have been saved.
The Asama struck an uncharted
rock off the coast of Mexico. The
extent of the damage to the steam
er is not known nor can anything
be said as to the probabilities Of
saving her. The absence OF direct
news from the Asama suggests that
her wireless has been disabled. The
casting away Of the Asama was re-
ported to Washington yesterday by
Rear Admiral Howard, commander
of the American Pacific fleet. In
this report the number Of men on
the Asama was placed at 500.
