Favors Racial suffragan.

Proposals to establish racial episco-
pate were settled finally. The house of
bishops expressed it's opinion that the
s,1ffragan episcopate affords the best
method of providing for the racial epis-
copate, thus adopting the minority re-
port of a commission appointed three
years ago to study the problem. The
suffra gan episcopate. which is at pres
ent in effect in the church, permits the
suffragan bishop to assist white do
cesar head. The house of deputies con-
Cured without debate with the upper
house in it's action.
The house of bishops also adopted a
resolution which. If the house of depu-
ties concurs. will give suffragan bish-
ops a vote in the upper body. AT pres
ent they have seat, but no vote.
Announcement was made that the
house of bishops had granted the Japa-
nese Episcopal Church power to con-
secrate native bishops. similar
action was taken several days ago with
regard to the Chinese church.
Henry VIII Not Founder Of Church.
The Joint commission on text books
reported that it had conferred with the
authorities of books on English and
American history and that several had
agreed TO revise their accounts so they
would not describe the Protestant
Episcopal Church as having been
founded by Henry VIII. Church his
,orians trace the episcopacy of the
Church of England back to apostolic
times.

Militarist and Pacifist Clash.

Militarist clashed with pacifist in
debate on prayer in the house OF depu-
ties yesterday. The issue, which arose
over the proposal Of the commission on
the enrichment of the book of common
prayer to add prayers for the army
and the navy. divided the body into
two factions.
The prayer upon which most of the
discussion was based, which was adopt
ed finally. was recommended by the
commission 1t asked the Lord God
of hosts to strengthen and protect the
soldiers of our country; support them
in the day of battle. and in time OF
peace keep them safe from evil" 1t
also pleaded that 'in all things they
may serve without reproach. A SINH
lar prayer suggested by the commits
sion for the navy also was adopted
One faction, led by Rev. John How
ard Melish of Brooklyn, held that any
war is unchristian, and that no soldier
can serve without reproach.

Urges Prayer for Fighters.

The other, of which Rev. Leighton
Parks of New York was the spokes-
man, while not championing war,
argued that it is the duty of the church
to pray for those men who forsake
civil pursuits, in which the remunera-
tion might be greater. for the service
of their country.
Previously several delegates had
urged the inclusion in the ritual of
prayer for world peace. The Rev. w.
H. Milton Of Wilmington, n. C.. intro
duced a resolution to this end, which
was referred to the commission.
as a result of the debate the prayers
recommended by the commission for
the army and navy, together with a
substitute offered by DIR. Melish, were
recommitted to the commission. and
when after reconsideration it reported
inability to change its first recon-
mendations, the prayers for the army
and navy. recommended. were adopted.
II approved by the house of bishops

Lightning's Freak.

Lightning recently at Spartansburg,
s. c., snapped around the premises of
J. Y. CantrelL. His two children, sit
ting in swing fastened to one of two
trees situated close together, had their
dresses scorched by bolt of light
ming which struck the tree, tearing the
bark off in places but not hurting the
children in the least. -Four mules
hitched to wagon in the road just OPP
posite the tree were knocked down,
one being killed. A fence 40 feet far
Their down the road was set on fire. A
single bolt of lightning performed the
whole feat. Besides knocking down
the four mules hitched to the wagon
In the road the lightning made a hole
as large as a water bucket just behind
the wagon. The bolt set the fence of
a hogpen afire which was on the oppo-
site side from the two trees, and at
least 40 feet down the road.

Russian Business Methoda.

Illustrating Russian elaboration in
business affairs r. w. Child In Ev-
erybody's says that an American bust
ness man went to Petrograd to sell
war goods which We're badly needed.
Instead of orders he received invita-
lions to dinner, first from one high Of
fetal, then another. After q week of
this he said to the bureaucrat whose
word was final, Look here, this may
be the Russian way; / will indulge
in 1t If you wish, but the American
way is to charge the cost of produc-
ton and sales to the price. My ex'
penses are large. Each day from now
on l will add these charges to the
price" He was as good rs his word,
and charged $500 day extra till the
negotiations were completed, ten days
later, when he got his contract.

sumed. The roasted heads are rubbed
between the hands and the chaff WIN

Their preparation, this roasted wheat
forms one of the common articles of
diet of the reapers Undoubtedly such
was the parched corn which Boaz gave
to Ruth.
Threshing by the primitive methods
employed is the most tiresome task of
all the fellah's round of toll. In many
places it is done entirely by treading
out beneath the feet of the animals
which are tied together abreast and
driven round and round over the
spread-out grain. The mules and
horses are provided with fiat sheet
iron shoes for all kinds of work, and
the cattle, just as the threshing sea-
son begins, are specially shod.
AS soon as the grapes, figs and 9TH
er fruits begin ripening the fellah,
with his entire family, moves out of
the village into the vineyard The
grape season is looked forward to as
the best part of the year, and at this
time the natives live for the most part
on fruits and bread. Jokingly the fell
laheen say that they get so fat from
eating grapes that their fezzes burst.
Olives are harvested in the fall. but
by method so injurious to the trees
that they yield full crop but once in
two years. Instead of picking them
by hand, for time is not money with
these easy-going people, they beat the
trees with sticks to knock off the
fruit, which at the same time results
in destroying the tender shoots which
should bear the next years fruit. The
olives when sailed or picked in brine
are valued food, for a peasant can
make meal of only bread and olives,
with perhaps the addition of a raw
onion.
Sheep as well as goats are MIXED
by the women, and the milk turned
into cheese and butter. Butter is made
in a goat skin like those used for car
rying water. This is only half filed
with milk which has previously been
allowed to sour. The skin is blown
full of air, the opening tied up, and it
is hung on tripod of sticks and
shaken back and forth by one or two
women until the butter is formed.

GO BACK TO OLD REMEDIES
War Brings a Return to Medicines
Used In the Days OF Our
Grandfathers.

Physicians have been jumping from
one drug or chemical to another ever
since Lister found a way to check or
prevent the infection OF wounds. Doc
tors have tried friars balsam, carbolic
acid, iodoform and dozens of other
antiseptics, some of them very costly,
and now seem to have gone back to
old fashioned household dressings OF
past years and even past centuries.
On the battlefields of Europe sugar,
salt, tincture of iodine and common
garlic have superseded drugs and
chemicals with high sounding names,
the New York Commercial states. SUI
gar is used as dressing for wounds
already infected. The British govern
ment has found that wounded men on
ships whose injuries have been
washed with common sea water make
better recoveries than those treated
in field hospitals, the conclusion being
that the waters of the ocean are an
ideal antiseptic. Tincture OF iodine, a
preparation as old as the hills, is the
favorite protection against lockjaw;
8uu 30 IL goes.
OF all these reversions to grand
mothers specifics, however, the dis
covery that garlic is almost cureall
Is the most striking Doctors who
prescribe and use only the most costly
and new-fangled preparations i'm
ported from Germany will have to
give respectful attention to garlic, for
its efficacy is vouched for by the Lon
don Lancet on the testimony of two
eminent London surgeons. Garlic APP
piled to a wound stops the infection
and heals quickly, whereas modern
antiseptics used in fashionable prac-
tice injure the tissues Garlic has
been tested thoroughly at the Pad
dington infrmary in London, as well
as in field hospitals in France.
The story of the rediscoyery of gar
lie possesses human interest. An old
French peasant woman was found to
have dressed thu sores and wounds of
soldiers in the wa. zone with remark
able results. An army surgeon inves
tigated and garlic is sold by the ton
where it was formerly sold by the
ounce in England chemists shops
Garlic juice diluted with three or four
parts of distilled water seems to be
the standard dressing.
Garlic is also found to be effective
in preventing tuberculosis and in cur
ing 1t in it's early stages. The COM
mon onion, cousin of the Glove of gar
lie, is good for colds. Hindus have
used plasters of garlic for ages. Just
when spectators have cornered the
drug and chemical market, army doc
tors find substitutes in things that are
cheap and plentiful

BEYOND MEASURE OF YEARS
Geologic Time Cannot Be Computed
by the Ordinary Methods of
Science.

Scientists hesitate to estimate geo.
logic time in terms of years. Such es-
Inmates have, however been made,
and one published by Prof. Charles
Schuchert in 1910 states that about
100000 years have elapsed since
the close of the Carboniferous age, an
age, as the name suggests, in which
great deposits of carbon, in coal, were
being formed in many parts of the
world. This age has been divided by
biologists into the Mississippian.
Pennsylvania and Permian epochs, Of
which the Mississippian is the oldest
and the Permian the youngest. The
Pennsylvania epoch alone Is esti-
mated by Schuchert to have covered
2,160,000 years, and animal life Is sup
posed to have existed on the earth for
over 100000 years before that time.
Geologic periods are recognized pri-
marily by the animals and plants that
lived In them, so that the study Of fos-
sils plays a very real and important
part in the progress of geologic
knowledge. Rocks of Carboniferous
age, as shown in their fossils, have &
wide distribution in the United States,
and they are apt to abound in these
remains of plant and animal life. The
fossil shells which are found In them.
however, may vary greatly from point
to point. because the animals they rep
resent lived in different periods of geo.
logic time or in different regions In
the Carboniferous ocean.
