Danger Signal.

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
to put out the fire? It is much the
same way with a cough. A cough is
a danger signal as much as fire
bell. You should no more try to sup
press it than to stop a nre bell when
it is ringing, but should cure the di-
sease that causes the coughing. This
can nearly always be done by taking
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
Many have used itwith the most ben
eficial results. 1t is especially val
liable for the persistent cough that
so often follows a bad cold or an at
tack of the grip. Mrs. Thomas Beech
ing, Andrews, Ind, writes. During
the winter my husband takes cold
,asily and coughs and coughs. Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is the best
medicine for breaking up these at
tacks and you cannot get him to take

Echo of Sound.

An echo is sound reflected from a,
distant surface. Sound is produced by
waves or pulses Of the air, and when
those waves come in contact with a
cliff or wall or other opposing surface
they are reflected like light or heat,
and the returning waves cause repe-
tition of the sound. The word echo is
Of Greek origin. According to ancient
mythology, it was the name of noun
tain nymph, daughter of the air and
the earth. Echo was one of Juno's at
tendants, but her loquacity displeased
Jupiter SO she was deprived Of the
power of speech by Juno and permitted
to answer only when she was spoken
to. Afterward Echo fell in love with
a beautiful youth named Nareissus and
was changed into stone, which still
retained the power of voice. Milton
personifies her thus:
Sweet Echo, sweetest nymph, that lv'st
unseen
Within thy airy shell,
BY slow Meander's margent green,
Canst thou not tell me Of gentle pair
That likest thy Narcissus are?

Another Insldlous Lobby.

In 1913 soon after taking Office,
President Wilson electrified the
country and started stampede
out of Washington, when he
charged that the capital was in
tested by an .'insidious lobby
which he was determined to smoke
out. The hegira which followed
this presidential warning left
Washington hotel men to mourn
the good old times. There was
never before such a hustling to get
out of the City of Magnificent
Distances.
But the "insidous lobby" of
1918 was negligible force in com
parison with the more insidious
lobby which now infests the
capital.
It is aIpurely "patriotico lobby, a
lobby which has wrapped the flag
about it, a lobby profoundly con.
cerned over the welfare of the
nation and the perpetuity of our
sacred institutions, lobby which
is in deadly fear of some imaginary
foe, lobby that thinks in terms
of air ships, submarines, dread
nanghts, 16 inch guns, torpedoes,
shells, huge standing army and
a navy greater than Hobson ever
dared to propose.
Even the railroads when carry
ing toward their successful cam
paign to force the government to
permit an increase Of freight rates,
flooded the mails with no such a
deluge Of literature as that which
the Preparedness lobby is today
disseminating. Never before in
the history of the country has an
equal activity in any behalf been
witnessed. Evidently this lobby
is richly endowed. 1t is magnifi-
Gently organized. 1t is splendidly
equipped. And it is carrying for
ward its work with thoroughness
and with an Indifference to the
cost which may well challenge the
curious interest of the American
people who are being asked to APP
prove of vast expenditures on the
irrational defense,'' the impli-
cation being that our shores are
menaced by some powerful oppres.

HE Genial Courtesy and a Rebuff He
Once Received.
Rafael Joseffy was among the most
famous and also the most finished
pianoforte players a generation ago
and one of the most charming players
Of Chopin's music, fancy, that ever
lived. One of his most amiable traits
was his want of artistic jealousy and
his unfailing kindness and courtesy to-
ward his colleagues. This no less when
he was in the heydey of his popularity
as virtuoso than after he had retired
from the platform to the regret and
wonderment of his admirers, who were
as numerous as the lovers of piano
forte music.
During the decade from 1880 to 1890
he really had no rival among the plan
lists who gave concerts in New York.
His popularity burned with steady
and lambent fame no matter how
much enthusiasm blazed up for these
newcomers. All these Joseffy met in a
spirit Of unselfish sympathy. He took
Conrad Ansorge under his wing, meta
phorically speaking, and always treat
ed him and spoke of him as If he were
peer, if not a better. He acclaimed
Rosenthal and always fastened to the
artists room with his Fluctuations
whenever a new candidate for public
favor presented himself.
His conduct was not always appreci-
ated or reciprocated, as an anecdote
frequently repeated by his friends,indi-
Gates. When De Pachmann gave his
first recital in New York Joseffy was
as usual among the first to offer his
congratulations.
"Herr Pachmann." he said, "you
played like little godr'
who's the big god?' was the ungra-
cious retort. You, perhapsY'
But Joseffy expressed no resentment
at the rebuff; he kept on admiring the
admirable things in De Pachmann's
playing just the same and also express

High Yields Versus Profits.

In a study of the agriculture of
Chester County, Pa, recently made
Dy the Office of Farm Management,
Department of Agriculture, a sig
nicfiant trend was brought out in the
relation of crop yield to labor in
come. 1t was found that yield per
acre and labor income rose together
up to a certain point, which was
well above the average of the yield
for the territory. After that in
creased yields per acre brought
smaller incomes.
The farm management specialists
of the department conclude from
this showing that good yields are
ordinarily more profitable than ex-
tremeiy high Ones" and that the
average farm of the locality studied
might probably increase it's yields
per acre up to about 40 per cent
above the present average yield of
the region.

the greatest within the memory Of

Republican minority; the intro

resolutions and a miniature rules

In the Senate practically nothing
was done except the election OF
Senator Clark of Arkansas as
president pro tenn. Vice President
Marshall was absent because of the
illness of his wife.
Both houses then, after sending
a joint committee to the White
House to give official notice Of the
opening of Congress, adjourned
until Tuesday when the real bust
ness of the session began with
President Wilson'S address to a
joint session in the hall of the
