Cheer up all you whlsky-topers, somebody has said a good word for ycu. Come closer. boys. and listen to this close harmony from the lips of none other than the lion. Ira B. LaIulIlh (Arsl tune we ever heard Of him) who was the prohibition can didate for vice president lie said in an address before college girls: Don't judge the drunkard too harsh- ly. For one thing he never is a tight wad. He who worships the eagle on the dollar seldom worships the bottle on the shelf. The mean miserly, nar- row skinllint does not get drunk. The man who becomes a drunkard likes men; the miser has no social instinct. Prohibition of the liquor traffic will save to us a generation of men who will give blessing to their time."
 The eminent prohibtionist seems to know something abou, the good old trunks wl., have staggered down into the darkn ss of the grave. More than commonly he fathoms the hearts of the James Whitcomb Rileys, the Visschers, the Davises, the Hoyts, the Lon lons and the whole list of those who loved good fellowship.
 But was he wise in telling those young women that drunkards are not tightwads, that they are so generous that they give everything away in- cluding themselves? It is said that women love generosity best of all the masculine traits, and despise meanness in man more than any other defect. Possibly the speaker looking forward to that bright day when all the booze will be converted into fuel for autos expects the young ladies to select for husbands those who would have been drunkards if they had had the chance. This sounds reasonable and is recommended to all girls for exactly what it is worth. which is nothing.

JERUSALEM IN JANUARY, 1915.

To western minds the idea of the Holy City serving as base for mod ern military operations must be full of iacongruities. And as a matter of fact, it was an amazing thing to sec the streets packed with kahki- clad soldiers and hear the breeding silence of ancient walls shattered by the crash of steel shod army boots. Here. for the first time, I saw the German ofHcers-quantitie of them. Strange iy out of place they looked, with their pink and whiteness that no amount of hot sunshine cuold quite burn off.

THE SOUL IS IN HER
 NATIVE REALM.


 We cannot describe the natural his tory of the soul, but we know that is is divine. I cannot tell if these won derful qualities which house today in this mortal frame, shall ever reas- semble in equal activity in a similar frame, or whether before they have had a natural history like that of this body you see before you; but this one thing I know that these qualities did not begin to exist, cannot be sick with my sickness, nor bur fed in any grave; but that they cir culate through the universe; before the world was, they were. Nothing can bar them out, or shut them in. but they penetrate the ocean and land, space and time. form and es- sence, and hold the key to universal Nature.
 I draw from this faith, courage and hope All things are known to the soul. It is not to be surprised by any communication. Nothing can be greater than it. Let those fear and those fawn who will. The soul is in her native realm, and it is wider than space, older than time, wide as hope, rich as love. Pusillanimity and fear b1atttifi11 they are not for her who puts on her co. cna:ion robes and goes out through universal ,vc to universal power Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Thomas A. Edison and Henry Ford,

Thomas A. Edison and Henry Ford, two youngsters aged 69 and s3 re. spectively, had a high kicking contest as the result of an argument about diet. Edison drinks a glass of boiled
 .llk with each meal and often eats nothing else. Ford advocates plenty of meat and vegetables. Edison kicked the chandelier but Ford couldn't reach it by seven inchea But this does not necessarily prove anything. Perhaps Ford doesn': Fletcherize or something. Maybe he is too busy to eat enough, or perhaps he can't afford to eat meat. There are lot of things to be considered in questions of this kind.
