Of the day before a TRADE OF pious ir-
relevancies and mock-heroic plati-
tudes in an attempt to discredit the
official position of the nation in its
controversy with a foreign govern

true. One could hardly expect more
from an open enemy. Any such effu-
sion from Or. Dernburg or from the
German ambassador would result in
his early departure from the country.
The Bryan address or appeal adj
dressed to the people is a sob story

and slobbery and interspersed with
many Scriptural quotations, by one
who terms himself "an humble fol-
lower of the Prince of Peace"

I absurd for serious discussion. So is
his proposal to prevent submarines

of the Bryan argument.

Mr. Bryan has made many and

admire Mr.. Bryan and the great prin-

think he has in this instance mistaken

cause they had confidence in the ad-

From the Dover Index.
The resignation of Secretary OF
State Bryan at this particular time is
disappointing, even to many of his
friends. The fact that he has long
labored in the interest Of peace among
nations, and believes in the settlement
of disputes by investigation and ar
bitrations. should not have prevented
him from standing, at this time, with
the President and the country in our
demand on Germany. Germany has

vessels. and an English merchant yes

CHILDREN'S DAY IDEA
ORIGINATED IS Years AGO

Fifty-eight years ago the Rev. DR..
Charles Hall Leonard, pastor of the
Church of the Redeemer at Chelsea,
Mass, hit upon the idea of devoting
the second Sunday of June to the
children of his parish. conducting SER
vices of special interest to little folks
upon this "Children's Sunday" The
idea was too good to be confined to one
parish. and in a few years Children's
Day, as it became generally known,
was being observed by churches Of
many denominations in an ever-widen-
ing area.
Doctor Leonard, who is in his 93rd
year, and who lives at Tufts College,
Mass. where for many years he was
dean of the Crane Theological School,
has the satisfaction of knowing that
Children's Day will be celebrated to-
morrow, not only in all parts Of the
United States and Canada, but in
many foreign countries.
There~will be special exercises and
songs by children, addresses by visi.
tors of distinction, delightful musical
programs and fine floral decorations.

THE BLOOD AND THE BRAIN.

Among the many important physio-
logical facts that should be as well
known by people generally as they are
by physicians, is the dependence of the
brain for its proper action on the vital

blood affords an imperfect stimulous tc

quence. lanquor and inactivity of the en-
tire nervous system follows, and ten

appearance.
IL is probable that no other medicine
ever produced has done more in the way
Of revitalizng the blood, making it pure
and rich, than Hoods Sarsaparilla, which
should certainly be given trial where
there is any reason TO believe that thu

Foot Torn Off by Shot.

The Richland Observer: Mrs. Ben
Brown, who resides near Sextonville,
was seriously injured Sunday when a
shot gun which was being put in the
buggy in which she was riding acct
dentally went off and the entire charge
of shot struck her in the foot, tearing
the flesh and taking away the bones.
The accident happened near the Pauls
farm and the lady was hurried there and
medical attention summoned. The
gun was being placed in the buggy by
Mr. Brown, who had taken it out to
shoot a squirrel. Without unloading
the weapon he placed it in the buggy
when the hammer caught on the side
and exploded with the above result.
