swer yes" to all the questions you
are truly educated. the professor

made you espouse them?
Has it made you public spiritedS
Has it made you a brother to the
weak?
Have you learned how to make
friends and keep them?
Do you know what it is to be a.
friend yourself
Can you look an honest man or
pure woman in the eye?
Do you see anything to love in a

Will lonely dog follow you i'm

Can you be high. minded and
happy in the meanest drudgeriesa

Do you think that washing dishes:

Are you good for anything your

Can you be happy alone?
Can you look out on the world
and see anything but dollars and

Can you look into a mud-puddles

After the Harvest.

When the crimson's on the oak, and
the sumach's fiery red,
When the sun his parting kisses
gives to summers glories dead;
When the sere, complaining blades
of the erst Respondent green
Seem to breathe a requiem to the
summers vanished sheen,
When the smuggling squirrels hide
treasure mines of nuts away,
And the monarchs of the wood
gaunt, bare, kingly arms display,
Then my heart is glad again, for the
harvest home is DER,
And nv patient tolls reward is a
full and goodly store.
Thus the autumn of a life, blest in
noble deeds employ,
Rich reward of wealth enfolds,
Christly beauty, peace and joy;
And the frost that's on the locks
hath its floods of mem'ries dear,
Of a sowing and a reaping, worthy
well life's golden year. -Ex.

Shall We Prepared


Should the army be doubled9
Should the navy be enlarged to
twice its size?
Should schools be made military

Should American people inaugu-
rate demand for preparedness
that Congress cannot ignore?
These are a few of the questions
which the National Security League
is urging upon American people and
the newspapers of the country in an
effort to stir up public sentiment in
favor of "a call to arms against
war"
The Security League is forming
branches ir every big city of the
country and eniisting the help of
prominent men in the movemsnt.
Among these are j. Stuart Blackton
of the Vitagraph film company who
has written and produced a re-
markable film called The Battle
Cry of Peace" which is playing to
crowded houses simultaneously in
New York, Boston and Chicago.
The story of the finn is based on
Hudson Maxim's book Defense

New York, the failure of our so

Value the Apple in the Daily Diet.

Value the Apple in the Daily Diet.
The time of the apple" is here.
Ii has once more taken its right
full place as the autumn standby
after the profusiOn of summer fruits
is past, and the wise housewife now
gives it a prominent place-both
raw and cooked in various forms -
in the daily bill of fare. According
to German writer, the apple is
such common fruit that few per-
sons are familiar with its remarka-
oily efficaciOus medicinal properties.
Everybody ought to know that the
very best thing one can do is to
eat apples just before going to bed.
The apple is excellent brain
food, because it has more phos
phOric acid in an easily digestible
shape than any other fruit known.
1t excites the action of the liver
promotes sound and healthy sleep
and thoroughly disinfects the mouth
1t also agglutinates the surplus
acids of the stomach, helps the kid
ney secretions and prevents cal,
Culus growth, while it obviates in
digestion and is one of the best pre-
Ventives of diseases of the throat
Next to the lemon and the orange
it is also the best antidote for thirs
and craving of persons addicted t.
the alcohol and opium habits"

Life.
Life is made 'up of few great
things and many little things.
1t is great to be born, to be mar
ried, and to die.
But it is commonplace just to
live.
There is greatness in the daily
toll which earns loaf and shares it
But it is small to take crust
without giving full return.
1t is great to uncover the light of
education.
1t is great to be happy in seeing
Others happy, but it is small to en-
danger happiness by indulgence.
The little things of life become
great to those who see broadly A
smile opens the way to better
things. A kind word waits bless
ing down the ages. The touch of
a hand is unforgettable. A soft
look perpetuates itself. A tear
softens the rock of sorrow.
Life is little to little people and
great to great people.
Life is the harmony of little
things making the melody We call
happiness For happiness is moth :
ing if not little Nor is it anything
if not great. Nor is it something
we can give another.
True happiness is personal. 1t is
the center of the circle. The sur

give or take it away.
Let us do the little things greatly
and we will not be forgotten.
