Live and Let Live.

This axiom should be practiced by
all. Each should enjoy these rights as
far as they do not conflict with IL e
rights of others. When the supposed
rights of any trespass OH the rights
of others, the people as whole are TO
decide. Just how far the privileges of
each extend. This is democracy. A
world of contention rush for place
just here. All kinds of business, GO
yernment, society and religion are
based and succeed or fail according to
the observance of this principle. 1t is
best couched in the Golden Rule:
Nv hatsoever .ye would that men
should do to you, do We even so to
them-''no one has a right to set his
conscience as standard for his equals
While no earthly authority has been
without faults, there are centers of
influence and power to which the
mass look for direction. This is COM
ing more and more to be invested in
the people and will more so, as they ad
vance in intelligence and ability to de-
eide their problems. The people choo-
Sc their representatives in government.
They are saying to these men, DO
as our laws tell you or you too shall
go as all who have disobeyed in the
past. The people are growing in the
knowledge of right in all relations of
life. The tide is rising for the applica-
ton thru the week of the Christian
teaching preached on Sunday. We
must get back to the foundation upon
which our nation was built, reverence
for the Almighty and obedience to
His commandments.

A Task That, as General Rule, Is Not
Properly Performed.
There are probably more mistakes
made in connection with the watering
of the lawn than In any other phase of
its management
The practice of sprinkling, as 1t is al
most universally followed, Is funda-
mentally wrong-not thht the sprinkler
does not furnish enough water to the
grass during the season, but that 1t
does not furnish 1t In properly distrIb-
uted quantities.
Sprinkling for a short period may ap-
pear to wet the sod thoroughly but In
reality the water does not penetrate
much below the surface This encour-
ages the formation of surface roots
and makes the grass less resistant to
the severe conditions of weather and
usage.
Except In rare cases the lawn should
not be watered Oftener than two or
three times week. A thorough soak
ing Is necessary and should be given in
the late afternoon or early morning.
The ordinary type of revolving spray
Is quite satisfactory, but the amount of
water applied by 1t is usually much
less than appears.
The point to be borne In mind is that
the ground should be thoroughly satu-
rated at each application to at least
three inches In depth.--k Kansas City

When the war began this country
was in a sad plight because 1t had not
enough go!d to meet its obligations
abroad; now there is apprehension In
some quarters for fear we will soon

A California specialist says he can
detect disease by listening to music
notes waited from the human body
while turning on an aluminium plate
from east to north. Still. the old
fashioned way of feeling the pulse and
looking at the tongue seems morB SEN
sIble.
