PRAYER

TO rule the day wisely, Justly, bene-
ficently, we must begin it rightly.
Christian Science is showing men and
women in every walk of life that
there is no better way OF beginning
each day than to start it with pray
er
In Christian Science there are no
formal prayers for special occasions.
It has no prayer book. The Lords
Prayer is repeated in unison at ali
Christian Science services, and it is
invariably preceded by few moments
Of silent prayer by the congregation.
Besides this. there,is one short prayer
for daily use. SO sim
pie is il. yet so reverent in its phrase
ology; so direct. yet so universal in
its innlusions; so free from every sug-
sestion Of sect or doctrine is IL, that
il can be used unreseryedly by any
sincere man or woman Of any church
Or Of no church. Here 1T IS as Mrs.
Eddy has given 1t to us: ''Thy king
dom come let the reign OF divine
Truth, Life. and Love be established
IN me. and rule odt OF me all sin; and
may Thy Word enrich the affections
1f all mankind" Manual. Art. VIII,

War DispIaces Indian King.

The little king of AMMAN, French
possession In farther India. who is dis
trusted because of alleged friendiiness
to Germans, has been dethrOned.
Paris papers have been discussing the
question of what is to be done with
him. His father and his suite. as well
as himself. must be placed In home
far from the comic opera throne that
he occupies. France has many and
widely scattered possessions beyond
the seas. There has been much hest
tation as to whether he should be sent
to Martinique, Guadeloupe, Senegal,
Madagascar or Reunion. All these
places have set forth the advantages
that attach to each one separately, and
the disadvantages of the others. This
for the reason that the eXiles will have
money to spend, over 100000 francs
yearly. It is quite likely that the Re-
union isle. In the Indian ocean. will
receive the royal boy and his retinue
and receive the benefit of the revenue
that will be expended for his board
and keep"

Among the new blouses there are
high as well as open necks and, oc-
casiOnally, models that fasten in the

V-shaped neck and its fastening at

the decoration requires it the fasten-

In the picture given here brilliant
turban, made entirely of feathers, is
shown at the right. The feathers are
bronze, shading into brown and green.
There is an odd ornament at the front
made of silver cord.
AT the left a velvet turban supports
o graceful wreath of curled coque
feathers that extends almost entirely
round the shape. Wreaths of this kind
are made in several colors to use with
velvets in harmonizing colors. Green
and bronze are especially effective
with dark brown velvet.
At the top OF the group a black vel

in doing so. But it makes amends with

those who spend their time In steam
heated buildings than are heavier
ones.

ored net, and trimmed with val lace,
is pictured here. 1t has the popular

themselves to the traveller or TO the

DEN MARK.

Even Iceland. that island Of dreams
asd legends, Is waking up to the
chance of becoming an Industrial coun-
try. The Jokulsaa, river In eastern
Iceland. rises In the wild Vatnnjokul
mountain. An English engineer found
volcanic sand at the bottom OF the
river, and he came to the conclusion
that there must be large deposits or
this material at Its mouth. Borings
soon proved that he was right. The
sand was found to contain from y to
IS per cent of iron. 1t was calculated
that II would pay to dry this SAND
aad extract the iron particles from tt
by means of electricity. There is an
other river close by, the Lagarfijot.
rhis does not carry iron ore. But its
falls can furnish 100000 horsepower.
which may be used for taking the iron
out of the deposits at the mouth OF
the other river. Even the ancient
sages mentioned the iron mud of this
river, but at that time people had no
idea that II was iron. English capital
lists are going to furnish the necessary
capital for building an extracting plant
which will cost about S5,0O0,0OO; but
the promoters claim that still more
money may be obtained, the success
of the enterprise being beyond doubt.
An Icelandic merchant, Thorarinn b.
Gudmundson, who Is at the head OF
tAe concern, has obtained concession
from the government to build the plant
and run 1t for so years.
Many boards of directors of savings
banks in Denmark are self-perpetuat-
ing. A bill was introduced in the rigs
dag to permit outsiders to take part
in the election of new directors to I'LL
vacancies. The supporters of the bill
asserted that the system of self-per-
petuation is antiQuated. A friend of
this system retorted that no embezzle-
ment has taken place in Danish banks
of this ''antiQuated" type.

The Swedish governments reply to
the Representations Of the allied min
listers concerning measures to preserve
the neutrality OF Swedish territorial
waters has been published In Stock
holm. says a Reuter- dispatch from that
place. The reply, the dispatch says,
disputes In a most formal manner the
suggestion that there is any difference
in the treatment accorded either to
one or the other of the belligerent
camps, which could be regarded as In
compatible with the duties of loyal
and impartial neutrality. The Swed-
ish reply says:
THE government of the king can
not enter into any discussion on the
sincerity and impartiality of its neu-
trality which have been abundantly
demonstrated throughout the whole
duration OF the present war. Itwould
however, observe that an allegation of
this character Is not well founded
when based only on isolated facts"
Regarding submarines, the reply con-
tends that all are treated as war sub
marines unless their employment for
commercial purposes is clearly estab-
lished by evident facts. The protest
of the allies referred especially to the
regulations covering submarines enter
ing Swedish waters, and the laying OF
q mine field off Kogrundrenden In the
southern sound.
Great Britain and Sweden have been
at odds since the early period of the
war. and Sweden's unyielding attitude
evidently has resulted in decision to
exert the combined pressure of all the
entente allies on it. Difficulties arose
from the allied blockade Of Germany,
resulting In the holding up of goods
EN- route to Sweden, which were sus.
pected OF being destined for Germany.
Sweden retaliated by holding up large
quantities of parcel post matter In
transit between England and Russia.

SWEDEN.

Sweden Is drifting dangerously close
to the terrible maelstrom of the war.
The French government has in
structed the minister at Stockholm to
Join with the other entente ministers
in presenting friendly but firm note
to Sweden in regard to its policy Of
neutrality. The note takes issue with
the position Of Sweden in distinguish
ing between submarines for war and
those for commerce, which the French
government affirms has an effect con-
trary to neutrality, since the naval
forces would hesitate to attack Ger
man submarine In Swedish waters I'M
der the pretext that 1t might be COM
mercial submarine, whereas there
would be no similar hesitation in deal
ing with submarine of the allies, be-
cause they have no commercial subma-
rines The note deals with several
questions relating to navigation and
concludes: '"The attitude adopted by
the Swedish government Is at variance
in obvious respects with an attitude
which Is compatible with the duties Of
loyal and impartial neutral"
A Stockholm dispatch says that
Sweden has held up 10000 tons of cof-
fee destined for Finland. presumably
on account Of the fact that Great Brit
ain has detained shipments Of coffee
for Sweden. AS result there Is
great scarcity Of coffee in Finland.
Strikes on small scale are reported
from dozens Of places In different
parts Of Sweden.
The receipts of the state railroads
during the first half of the year ex-
ceeded S2O.OOO,OOO. which was almost
$5,OOOOO0 more than the receipts for
the previous year. But the increase
of the running expenses was $780,
600 larger than the latter sum.

Fair Premiums Al Paid.

A. r. Corey. secretary OF the state
fair association, has sent out the last
of the checks drawn in payment OF
premiums of the 1916 state fair. There
were nearly 5000 prize winners at
the exposition and the settling OF
these accounts has kept the office
force OF the department OF agricul-
ture busy since Sept. /.
The total premiums paid this year
amounted to s66,573.67. compared with
$69,59S.75 paid in premiums in 1915.
The net decrease was $3,025.
The association this year paid ST.
47S less in race purses. The horse
department premiums showed a de-
crease of s2,952. Other departments
showed increases. Cattle took $500
more than last year. Swine, sheep and
poultry had larger premiums, also.
The exact cost of the 1916 fair has
not yet been determined, owing to the
fact that several accounts are unset
tied. The cost will probably be be-
tween s165,0O0 and $4,000. The net
profit will be between $4,000 and
$4,000.
The horn of plenty. which was a
feature OF the agricultural building,
will be left in the building and will
be used again next year.

The state board of control is doing
its Christmas shopping early. Harry

board, has completed contracts for
over 1000 pounds of candy to be used
in the Christmas entertainments a.
ten state institutions. In addition the
board will provide fruit, assorted nuts
and holiday novelties for the state
wards according to the usual custom.
There are 10000 persons in the state
institutions under the board of con.
troll. Practically every institution
takes mixed candy for holiday use, ex-
cept the two prisons. The prison pop
ulation prefers tobacco to candy. The
old soldiers at the home at Marshall
town like tobacco but they also want
a little candy to give Christmas the
right spirit.
