4 joke ON the Lvnx.

Frequently during the winter nature
plays 3 joke on the lynx Mr.. Lynx
does his hunting at night and lies out
stretched on some horizontal limb dur
ing the day. Some day, while the lynx
is dreaming, the sun come out bright
and warm and softens the surface Of
the snow TO such extent that when the
animal climbs down and starts in
search Of his supper the soft snow
collects in great clumsy balls on the
long foot hears The lynx sets down
and with his sharp teeth gnaws away
the accumulated snow, gets up and
starts on, only to find that the balls
have collected again. Again he sits
down, 8 little less patiently this time,
and gnaws the snow away. In a short
time It has accumulated once more.
The Infatuated animal tears at the
persistent snow with his sharp teeth
and wounds his feet until they bleed.
You can often track the animal by the
bloodstains on the snow-Youth's
Companion.

The weather man and the Daven-

ton do not seem able to reconcile their
differences and. unless they get to-
gether and agree to agree the local
matinee club will not be able to give
its horses much racing this season
The first matinee Of the season, sched-
uled for Decoration day, was spoiled
by the weather and for two succeeding
Sundays matinee racing at the mile
track was out of the question on &C
count Of the annoying rains The
Fourth Of July card received the same
harsh treatment at the hands Of the
rainmaker and last Sundays events,
which promised some rare sport. were
also denied all on account Of the down

The local horsemen are a game lot,
however, and, rather than disappoint
themselves and their friends, they are
going to try and settle their speed dis

weather and a good track as every
driFer-0wner is anxious to demonstrate
the caliber Of his favorite horse Riv-
airy between the several members of

GIVE OHIO A REST!
columbus Dispatch }


When the present license law be-
.,came operative, a difficult situation
z had been so well handled that the
headers of both wet and dry forces
made written acknowledgment of the
good work Of the legislature and of
Governor Cox
What was good then is good enough
now, and the difficulty experienced in
framing a substitute testifies to its
excellence.
A question that is big enough to oc-
.~cupy the center of the political stage
at all times, as the saloon problem
. does, is too big for a "decentralized''
local control. What is true Of the
] liquor law is also true Of the taxation
measure. There Is no honest reason
! for change. Any tampering with the
great fundamental laws now operating
SO we'll will prove botch Of effic-
iency. The best thing the legislature
can do It to pass the appropriation
, bills and go home Give Ohio rest!

POTATOES
In Place Of Bread Say The
Scientists

Washington, d. G., March If
wheat remains at It's present high
figure or continues to rise in price
and If there is corresponding in
crease in the price Of bread, scientists
in the United States Department Of
Agriculture suggest that the ordinary
household will find 1t advantageous
to eat more potatoes and less bread.
With potatoes at so cents a bushel,
ten cents worth-or ten pounds-will
give the consumer a little more actual
nourishment than two one-poltnd
loaves of bread at five cents each.
The protein and fat are present in
appreciably larger amounts in bread,
but the potatoes will be found to furn.
ish more carbohydrates, and more
heat unite.
Carbohydrates, (starch) contribute
greatly to the energy value Of any
diet and since potatoes are rich in
these, families that wish to expend
their money to the best advantage are
recommended to consider whether
they cannot make a more extended
use of them. They are easy to cook
and when prepared In different ways
can be made to lend variety to the
winter diet when green vegetables
are hard to obtain. Like other foods
relatively rich in carbohydrates, how
ever potatoes should be eaten with
foods correspondingly rich in protein,
such as milk, meat, eggs, etc. and
with foods like butter, cream and
meat fat to supply the fat that the
body neds.
Under normal conditions in Europe
and America the potato ranks next to
bread as a carbohydrate food. If
prices change sufficiently to make 1t
desirable from a financial point of
view there is no scientific reason why
potatoes should not be substituted to
q great extent for bread. In addition
the potato like many fruits and vege-
tables, helps to neutralize an acid con.
dition in the body. This is another
reason for it's being eaten in combin-
alton with meat, fish, and other AMI.
NAL foods.

In these hard times, when every lit.

penses of the poor counts, wouid sus-
gest that the United States govern,

For instance, If one wished to buy a

cents; with a half-cent piece In use
there would be a saving of half a cent

DR.. Hess
To Remain Another Week At
The N. P. Revival
(By Glass Reporter.)


Since the arrival of DR.. Hess in our
city, coming as he did to assist the
Rev. o. E. Ford in coducting the re.
yival services at the Methodist Prot
estant church, we have awakened to
the fact that he is indeed the real man
of the hour
Large and we'll pleased audiences
have greeted him at each meeting,
deep interest being shown in the SER
mons, all of which have been reve.
lation to his hearers.
Last Friday evening he chose for
sermon text, a tiny word of five let
ters, yet one that contains world of
meaning for every human being. Upon
it rests the entire foundation of the
| Christian religion, around it is builded
each important event that is carried
| through to a successful issue and by
its use only may success be assured.
| The name of this wonderful word is
Faith" DIR. Hess, learned as he is in
the ways of the world, knew his sub.
ject thoroughly, and his masterful
mind carried bis audience through
many historical events in ancient Bib
lical times that were based upon faith
alone. His eloquent description of pa
thetic little incidents along this line of
thought, which occurred to his own
personal knowledge, were touching In
the extreme.
+: In his lecture Sunday afternoon for
men only, he spoke to what is proha-
bly, the largest independent body of
men that have been gathered in any
one church for many day. The ad-
dress on the subject, Human Nature
With the Mask Or" was so remark
able from every possible standpoint
that 1t is entirely beyond the descrip-
tive power Of the writer to give out,
with any degree Of fairness to the
speaker. but we feel sure that any one
Of the many favored men will say he
has heard something we'll worth while.
In all OF his sermons he speaks only
through the word of God, his argu-
ments are based upon absolute truth
and are unassailable.
We were informed tnat DR.. Hess Is
great man but we find the term Is
entirely too mild, he is a wonderful
man. capable of filing any position
from the presidency of the college In
West Lafayette to the highest execu-
tive Office in the gift of the American
people.
We should appreciate the fact that
such learned gentleman Is in our
midst, knowing as We do, that he Is
here only as special favor to the
pastor of this church.
He has consented to remain with US
| for one more week and those who
have as yet failed to hear him would
do well to attend one. of not all of
these meetings. Remember that DR..
Hess breaches at all meetings, also
has full charge OF the after song SER
vice and his method of conducting
this part of the program is beautiful
indeed. The services will continue
nightly throughout the week. Every.
body invited to attend
Fully 700 were in attendance Sun
day evening, filling the church to its
utmost capacity
