NATIONAL SONG OF CHINA
Country Has Awakened to the Need
OF Melody to Inspire
Patriotism.

After the rejection of eight national
anthems composed in China since the
revolution, that of the Chinese minis
ter to Belgium, Wang Van Pao. which
together with the song of the minister
of agriculture, commerce and trade,
Chang Tsein, belongs to the latest
compositions, is likely to be accepted
by the Chinese government. Following
is a translation of the first three
stanzas.
China, the sublime mountains and
luxuriant plains attest thy greatness.
Country of wonders through thy hoary
civilization thy emperors have sacri-
feed themselves in ceding the rule to
the people.
The people have the supreme pow
er. So has taught Confucius and
Mengtse. And already in the 'hoary
times Of Yao and Suen it had thus
been announced to the people. The
people is composed of five tribes. The
unity of the five tribes is past dispute
Then China is invincible
Develop the wealth OF the country,
improve agriculture, and make the
people happy Education and culture
are the achievements of centuries. All
citizens are equal; for Confucius and
Mengtse have taught social equality"

Being and Doinu.

AS the man is in the integrity of his
character, so is his strength Being
is everything. 1t conditions happi-
ness; it determines and measures
service. A mans happiness depends
upon what he is in himself. A mans
service to others is conditioned upon
what he is in himself. Being is basal
to doing. AS the speed of the cleo
trio car is determined by the energy
stored in the power house, as the
power of the piston rod is determined
by the push Of accumulated steam,
so personal power is determined and
measured by character. This is SUI
preme power, a character filled with
the divine presence and radiant with
a divine holiness.

THE SECRET

of good coffee is to get pure, sound coffee
If you ask your dealer he will tell you
that all coffees are pure, as the law pro-
hlblts the sale of substitutes as coffee.
Not all apples are pure although they
are apples. Some of them are often rotten.
Some coffees are windfalls, and whilst
the law allows them to be called coffee
they are impure and have harsh taste.
Denison's Coffees are picked cofees, the
berries picked by hand from the trees,
consequently they are always pure and
sound in every sense of the word, reliable
and delicious.
Denison's Coffees are always packed in
cartons, bags or cans with the name on
every package. All others are limitations.
If your grocer does not stock Denison' s
Coffees, write the Denison Coffee Co., Chi
cago, ILL.,, who will tell you where they
can be obtained in your vicinity ADV.

LICENSE FEE CAN'T BE CUT
Owen Rules Second Vote Cast by
Bloomfield Citizens was
Invalid.

Madison-On Sept II, 1885, the
town of Bloomfield, Walworth county,
at special election voted to fix the
fee for saloon licenses at $500. In
September, 1913, at a special election
the same question was submitted
to the electors and it was voted to fix
the fee at 5000.
This last action by the electors was
void and the license fee remains as
fixed by the vote of September, 1889,
at $500, according to an opinion by
Atty.-Gen Owen to Dist.-Atty. G. J..
Summer of Walworth county.
The law, as pointed out by the attor-
ney general provides only for an in
crease of the fee by vote of the people
and there is no way to reduce it, once
it is increased.
