Ruskin's lmpulsjve Generosity.

ssSON"s sbuPOSOsVV 00u0b0oSSys
One day, walking near Radley, Rus
kin's attention was caught by group
of little girls playing in the road, and
be went and talked to them. One of
them specially attracted his attention.
He asked her why she was playing in
the dust. Had she no garden at home ?
Did she love flowers? What was her
name? And she replied modestly, with
wonder in her eyes. On reaching home
he gave orders to his solicitor to look
out for and buy cottage with a gar
den in Radley and have deed Of gift
made out in the little girls name,
which was done, and she, full Of won
der, with her astonished parents, en-
tered into possession of it.-From

The Parseo.


The Parsee, untrammeled by his sur
roundings, is seen in Bombay in all his
wealth of height and dress. The men
are, without exception, tall, finely form.
ed and stately and posses a robustness
and beauty quite at contrast with their
Hindu neighbors. Their street cos
tune is a peculiar long white cotton
gown, wide trousers of the same ma
terial and color and tall inter shaped
hat. They have a general reputation
for sobriety, frugality and sagacity,
and they seem to thoroughly under
stand the accumulation of fortunes, in
this respect resembling the Hebrews.
The wealthiest residents of Bombay
are Parsees.

A lovA Sforv

Professor Henri Bergson at a dinner
in New York talked Of love. "Love in
the sense of passion" he said, "does
not live long. There's a little fable
about love which has a deal Of truth
in it.
"Love, so the fable runs, bent over
a beautiful maiden, when Cynicism
sneered and said:
oh, yes, her eyes are stars and
her mouth is rose, but twenty years
hence she will be fat and round back
ed, with a double chin Just like her
mother: You, though-ha, ha, hal
you, though, will be blind, eh?'
No. Love answered calmly; 4 sim

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, Sept. IL.
1t was thought by many that Cor.
poral William Crichton's record score
of 277 points made during the recent
target practise of The 4th Cavalry,
would stand for years to come, but
the 1st Battalion, 25th Infantry, hay-
ing completed record practise on
Tuesday, Sept 5, it was found that
Sgt. Dace H. Burns, Company A, 18th
Infantry, had established a new rec.
ord of 283 points, which should stand
for many years.
The year of 1914 Witnessed the first
appearance of Sgt Burns on, the tar
get range. When the practise was
completed he found himself only a
marksman. When the practise for
1915 was over he had made himself
a sharpshooter, and now since he has
completed the record practise for
1916, he is not only an expert rifle
man but has in his possession the
highest score ever made in Hawaii.
Sgt. Burns individual scores were
as follows: ~. Il e.
Slow fire, 800, 500 and 500 yards, Al,
AS and AZ respectively.
Rapid fire, 200, 800 and 500 yards, 40,
so and 4S respectively.
Sgt. Burns is native of Bowling,
Missouri, and enlisted at st. Louis
Mo-, November, 1913, and since has
taken part in many athletic events.
Aside from being an expert shot, he
is a preat football player.
He being one of the many well-liked
men of the regiment, 1t is hoped
that he may have chance to shoot
in one of the many competitions hello

TIRED LOOKING WOMEN

Some women always wear a worn,
tired look. 1t is the outward sign of
nervousness, neurasthenia perhaps.
with its characteristic symptoms of
worry, headaches and sleeplessness.
Overwork, grief, undue excitement,
the late hours and nervous strain of a
strenuous social season, lack of out-of-
door exercise, any or all of these may
be responsible for the trouble but the
most common cause at this season of
the year is the grip.
Whatever the cause, if you feel the
need of more strength try the great
non-alcoholic tonic, DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. AS the nerves get their nourish-
ment from the blood the treatment
must be directed toward building up the
blood. DR.. Williams Pink Pills act
directly on the blood and with proper
regulation of the diet have proved of
athe greatest benefit in many cases of
neurasthenia. A tendency to anemia,
or bloodlessness, shown by most neu-
rasthenic patients, is also corrected by
these tonic pills. Your own druggist
sells DR.. Williams Pink Pills or they
will be sent by mail on receipt of price.

FOR A SECOND PLACE NAVY

BY a vote of II to s the senate
passed navy bill calculated to re-
deem our navy from its present ten
dency to slip it's hold and slump to a
place with the fourth and fifth raters,
and to put it on the way to secure
second place.
That place undoubtedly fits cur ma
tional circumstances, needs, preten-
sions, capacities, responsibilities Of
self-respect and self-defense.
The antiquated, bucolic notion that
our form of government, our peace
able intentions, our stock Of SNUG
maxims and unctuous platitudes
about ourselves, constitute sufficient
attack and make us beloved abroad,
has received a rude shock during the
present war.
That shock would prove a disguised
blessing, on the principle of the famil-
lar couplet:
o, wad some power the gifite gle us
To see oursels as ithers see us.
"Ithers," judging from their cavalier
treatment of our neutral rights and
plaintive protests through the busy
epistolary hand of Mr.. Wilson, pretty
evidently see us as (to quote Mr.. Kip
ling) "a big, fat republic" so i'll pre-
pared to fight for its legal rights that
these may be outraged with impun-
ity. AS. for our being beloved abroad,
the cold fact is that we are partic-
ularly disliked, and are likely to oc-
cupy the precarious place of the most
disfavored nation when this war is
over.
It therefore behooves us to see to
it betimes that the general dislike
mot perhaps unmixed with envy and
jealousy of our wealth and progress)
be tempered with that scrupulous re-
spect for our rights which ample wis.,
ible ability to maintain those rights
with force If need be alone commands.
Passing of the senate second place
navy bill by a vote Of Il to was
step in the right and safe direction,

AN ANTIGOSSIP CRUSADE

A young girl recently killed her
self in an English village. The cor
oner's jury, however, brought in the
verdict: ''Killed by idle gossip" The
girl had been guilty of nothing act
uaIly wrong, but ''the gossip dissem-
mated by the women of the village
blackened her name until she could
bear the suspicious looks and spoken
taunts no longer, and so she ended
her life" The event caused an anti
gossip crusade, and society was
formed and rules drawn up to combat
the evil.

BRITISH PLAN TO KEEP
GERMANY FIGHTING

Whether the British can gain and
hold much ground they still have to
show, but the resumption of their at
tack north of the Somme shows that
at least they are making a resolute
attempt, and mean this time to keep
it up. Neuve Chapelle was a flash in
the pan; the great offensive of last
fall was but a futile demonstration,
probably meant to relieve the situa-
ton in the Balkans, where the ruth
less attack on Servia was beginning.
Neither formed part of a general plan,
and to press either after the cost of
progress had been demonstrated would
not have been warranted. To advance
the lines few additional miles would
not materially have bettered them,
and the assailants would have suffer
CA nuSA mO4G uSdN4ly Ludn Tic OS-
tenders. The case now is wholly diff
terent. Quite apart from the gaining
of ground, which has been made more
feasible by increased artillery and am
munitiOn, there is an immediate and
important gain to the allies collect
lively in keeping as many Germans as
possible fighting, and fighting hard, in
the west. If the attack is brought to
q standstill at one place. it is quite
