Ministerinq AnqeI.

To the sick man the divine reveals
itself in many a way; it fills his sick
room. He does not ask that angels
shall minister to him, for wOman's
hands smooth his pillow, bring him
marvellous beverage called milk, and a
delicate, transparent, glittering mass
of bubbles that dance in rainbow col
ors within the tumbler. This am
brOsia the prosaic nurse calls whipped
up white of egg, as if by mere words
she could exercise the spirit of poetry.
Poetry invades the sickrOOm, it sings
in the sunbeams, it leaps with the
leaping flames Of the fire and Snuggles
in the bosom Of the rose. Poetry is
but the harbinger of the divine, and
both express themselves in the human
voice. If the forces of life can take
the dust of the earth and compound it
into wOman'S hands, and that mira
Gle does not convince us that the
forces Of life are divine, then no other
miracles or revelations will.-Samuel

ernor, is a son Of Gov. Richard
J. Oglesby and was born in De-
catur, Ill, March 10, 1878. At
ter attending public school and

ing that university in his sopho-
more year at the prospect of

hurst" near Elkhart, and

ANOTHER SATURNALIA.
In his opening campaign

In his opening campaign
speech Governor Dunno said:
"The present administration
has been economical. It has
watched the expenditure of ev-
cry cent of the public money"
No one questions that the
present administration has
watched the expenditure of the
public moneys. 1t has done lit
tie else, and has been a free
spender. If the expenditure Of
$29,OOO,0OO was saturnalia,
as described by Governor Dunno
in 1912, what is the expendi-
ture of s45,OOO,O0O?

Medill Mccormick, candidate
for congressman-at-large, was
born in Chicago in 1877. His
grandfather was Joseph Medill,
the famous editor of the Chica-
go Tribune, and Mr.. McCor-
mick's father was Robert S. Nc
Cormick, who was ambassador
to Austria, to Russia and to
France. Medill Mccormick was
graduated from Yale in 1900,
and in 1901 went to the Philip
pine Islands as war correspond
ent. He went to Mexico in the
same capacity two years ago
and amid constant perils made
his way to Mexico City. In 1911,
Mr.. Mccormick became associ-
ated with the Progressive Re-
publican movement, and a year
later was a member of the Pro-
gressive campaign committee.
He was temporary chairman Of
the Illinois Progressive state
convention in 1914 and held the
same post at the Republican
state gathering in 1916. He
was elected to the lower branch
of the legislature in 1912 as a
Progressive and was one of the
militant members. In 1914 he
was reelected as a Progressive,
being one Of two members to
achieve that honor. He was a
delegate-at-large to the Repub-
Hcan national convention in Chi
cago in 1910 and made a spec
tacular campaign for the nomi-
nation for congressman-at-large
with the slogan, 'He is in poll
tics for what he can give, not
for what he can get"

CoVetousnesS.

Coveting is as dangerous as posses
sing. The man with little or no money
can love it as much as the man with
much. The latter is in danger Of pride
and hardness Of heart, but the former
suffers most from envy, anxiety and
bitterness of spirit. Money has as
many slaves among the poor as among
the rich.

MetchnikofPs Dramatic Death.

Professor Metchnikoff, says the
Worlds Work, came to his laboratory
on July 13. He did not attempt to
hide his uneasiness at the weakness Of
his heart. He surprised his students,
however, by saying, as he put on his
things to go home: Tomorrow is the
18th, isn't it? So we won't work. I
am afraid that this will be my last
day here. I cannot last two days I
shall die tomorrow"
He died, in fact, on the 18th, and
his pathetic farewell made a deep i'm
preston even on the pathology stu
dents.

HOUSE PASSES RESOLUTION FOE
TAX COMMISSION.

Frankfort, KY, March i4--A reso-
luton which passed the Senate Satur-
day was also passed in the House yes
tcrday morning providing for the APP
pointment by the Governor Of three
members of the Senate and four mem
bers Of the House to serve as a tax
commission without compensation.
Under the resolution the commits
sion Is to complete it's work by the
first of November, submitting a tax
bill to the Governor, who may then
decide whether or not to call an ex-
ira session.
The passage of this resolution in
dicates that a special session will be
called probably about the first of next
year
The resolution offered by Senator
Speer Saturday is to limit the extra
session to thirty days. Members of
the House and Senate generally agree
that a commission Of some kind is
necessary before any tax legislation
is possible The resolution as passed
avoids the objection that the commits
sion would incur a heavy and unnec-
essary expense

There is a Real Difference

Cream of tartar, derived from grapes,
is used in Royal Baking Powder because
it is the best and most healthful ingredient
known for the purpose.
Phosphate and alum, which are de-
rived from mineral sources, are used in
some baking powders, instead of cream of
tartar, because they are cheaper.
If you have been induced to use baking
powders made from alum or phosphate,
use Royal Baking Powder instead. You
will be pleased with the results and the
difference in the quality of the food.
