That Dead Mans chest.o

The rendering Of the first line Of
Stevenson's immortal song as Fifteen
men on dead mans chest" spoils the
significance Of the phrase, writes a
correspondent. License is permitted
to poets, but no fifteen men could ever
find room on the chest of any man,
dead or alive. unless they were Lilli-
putians on the. top of a CULVER. The
actual phrase is 1.-THE Dead Mans
Chest" which is the name of one of
the Virgin islands, lying to the east Of
Porto Rico 1t is said that when Co.
lumbus discovered the group he named
them after St Ursula and some Of her
mythical virgins but the English buc-
cancers rechristened them In homelier
terms, such as 'Dutchman's Cap"
Broken Jerusalem" Rum island"

How 10 Sharpen Your Knife.

In the Woman's Home Companion
contributor gives boys the following
advice as to how to keep their knives
sharpened:
Few boys who undertake to sharp
en- knife have any great difficulty in
getting sufficiently keen edge. 1t is
in keeping this edge that the trouble
arises. This is due to holding the
knife blade too Gas when sharpening.
by holding the knife blade very fat
sharp edge can be readily produced.
but is SO very thin that it is easily
broken and the blade is married by
jagged hicks.
THE men who are employed in fac
tories to sharpen the best grade of
knives hold the blade at an angle of
about 45 degrees and really sharpen
only the cutting edge itself. This
method leaves the blade behind the
immediate point of contact sufficiently
thick and strong to stand any ordinary
usage"

The American Issue announces, that
with the exception of Baltimore and
Alleg4ny counties and Baltimore city, the
Christian voter will have an opportunity
this year to cast ballot for legislative
candidate uncontrolled by the liquor in
ierests upon one or the other Of the old
party tickets.
The entire eastern shore has nominated
dry candidates in nearly every county
upon both tickets. The result is that the
Christian voters will be enabled in these
counties to generally support their party
ticket without lending aid and consola-
ton to the liquor traffic ofthe state.
Inasmuch as the opportunity is given
this year for the Christian voter to st
his ballot for men who can be depended
upon TO serve the cause of righteousness
rather than to be at the beck and call of
the Baltimore whisky crowd, says the
Issue, it is the clearer duty of the Chris
tian voter to seek out such men and sup.
port them at the general election. The
American Issue will endeavor to get this
information before the people in due time.

the candidates should exist in your mind,

FRIDAY, OCTOBER %, 1915.

With election day but little more than
week distant, campaign managers have
their hands full in an endeavor to arouse
enthusiasm.
The principal characteristic of the cam
paign this fall, since the bruisingsprimary
contest, has been the general apathy of
the voter. and a disposition to let things
drift.
No real stirring issues have been adj.
vanced, and the campaign has taken on
sort of personal aspect with most of the
candidates doing more or less individual
solicitation of votes. as in the primary,
not depending on the mass meeting as in
times gone.
The only meetings of this sort in Cecil
county, during the present campaign,
were arranged for this week. at Elkton.
The Democrats held the stage on
Wednesday evening. with the State can.
didates present and urg' ing the voters to
rally to the party standard, while the Re-
publicans. with their State candidates as
the drawing card. will present their
claims on Friday evening.
Meanwhile all the candidates for TIE
local Offices are diligent, circulating
among the voters and doing their best to
arouse latnet enthusiasm.

Japan appears to have built up . sort of perverted Monroe Doctrine. the distinctive feature being that it protects the Asiatics against exploit tatlon by every nation except Japan.
 Now if the world would only take something for its militarism as well as for it's alcohol and "dope" habits.
 Still, the American people gener- ally are pleased at the welding of the big stick by the President.
 It is probable that the Kaiser will not again speak so lightly of that "contemptuous little British army".
