CARE OF The HANDS. =

CARE OF The HANDS. - Many
working people are too careless
about their hands. When cold
weather comes the hands will chap
and crack very easily, especially if
they get wet. The remedy is to keep
them clean, soft and as dry as posi-.
BILE. Every day I see people who new
er clean their hands properly. AS
result, their hands are horny and
cracked and swollen and horrible in
every way. This is not necessary.
Keep your hands clean. Get some
good hand cleaning soap. Wash
them well in warm water. Then
grease them well with ,yvaseline or
some fat to make the skin soft.
Get away from the superstition
that your hands must be like horn
because you do hard work. Wear
gloves or mittens. whenever you can.
It pays to invest a few cents and to
spend a few minutes every day to
keep your hands in good condition
and decent looking. Trim your nails
and clean out underneath them.
Don't carry half of your country
with you under your finger nails. Re

tive Catholic patriots. If he knew
anything of the true biography Of
the men he named he would know
that they were all very poor Catho-
lies, who never worried very much
about their religion, and that the
Marquis de La Fayette utterly repu-
dated it in early youth and died in
his infidelity.
If Mr.. Doyle would find an old Irish
or English catechism of that age he
would find that children were taught
that the infalhbility of the pope I'M
der any circumstances was a lie con-
cocted against the Catholics by the
Protestants, and that all heretics, in.
fidels and heathens went to hell
There is a reason for everything in
the world; the devil and Free Mason
ry do not explain the struggle against
the church. Remember, it is against
the system, not the members ex Sc.

for 1850 years - they cannot see
why Timothy O'Brien is born in an
environment where he has the grace
of the sacraments to make the way
smooth for him, while poor WuTfO-
Sing is born in an environment
where he has only the poor light of
his feeble reason, with perhaps the
Analects of COhfucius as an aid on
the side. WI has always stood for
from ninety-nine hUndredths to sew
en-eights of humanity.
If Mr.. Doyle could read the last
paragraph of the third chapter of
Session ", Vatican council, and was
able to view it in the light of world
history, he would not so easily inter
pref according to his own viewpoint
the words of Leo Kill "
And if he would study the last two
paragraphs of the fourth chapter of
the same session he would not so
loosely interpret the dogma of infaI-
ibility.
And if he knew something of the
real history of the whole council and
how a packed synod rushed the
whole decree through by as pretty a
picture of gag rule parliamentarian
tactics as the world has ever seen, he
would keep his Sunday school
knowledge to himself and let bet
ter theOlogian work in his place. ~
Not that wish to judge Mr.. Doyle.
From his writing he would appear a
sincere, honest, patriotic, Catholic
citizen, and 1 want to believe him
such.
Yet, if he would try to appreciate
the fact that all non-Catholics- look
upon every effort for the church as
an effort against democracy. and for
autocracy, it would make him pause.
For surely we are not all wantonly
and wickedly unjust and dishonest.
Surely we are not all blackguards.

SIR. ROGER EASEMENTS
EXAMINED FOR TREASON
Continued from Page One

John Mccarthy, farmer OF Cour-
rahne, county Kerry, told OF finding
the collapsible boat in which Case
ment, Bailey and man named Mon
teith, who is still at large, landed at
Tralee. Mccarthy said he pulled L
ashore and found dagger and tin
box in it. On his way home he met
his children, who were playing with
three revolvers they had found near
the shore.
Other witnesses from the same dis
trict told of having seen signal lights
at sea on the evening before Good
Friday.
The star witness from the stand
point if human interest was Martin
Collins, a farmers lad OF II years.
who was called to identify Easement
as one OF the men arrested near Ira
lee. Martin, handsome little chap
with Irish brogue, told with evident
pride how he had driven Easement
and a constable in his cart for several
miles when the prisoner was being
taken to headquarters.
After the hearing had been in pro-
gress, for some time Easement turn
ed his attention from the testimony to
the writing of long statement
While thus engaged he showed mark
ed emotion for the first time since
the hearing began. He wept quietly
as he worked away with his pencil.

State Department Code
Experts Doubt Secret
Sipher Known Abroad

state Department code experts to-
day said they felt no apprehension
over the information cabled from
Berlin by Carl w. Ackermann. elling
that codes employed by this Govern
ment have become known to Furopean
nations While they have no way of
being absolutely sure. this Govern
ment'S most secret code is not known.
they insist they have every reason to
believe it is secret.
TT is to be taken for granted" said
one official today, that code cam
not always remain secret: even the
usefulness. The department employs
different code system for different
matters. 1t would not surprise me
at all to learn that many governments
know the code we employ in tranmit
ting notes and messages which are
to be made public. ! would be sur
prised if they did not know it, We
use code for such matters partly for
the sake of diplomatic usage, and
from getting knowledge of the con-
tents until a stated time, for perfect
lY obvious reasons Such a code was
employed in transmission of the An
coma note. 1t would have been dis
courteous for their contents to have
become public, for instance, until a
time agreed upon by both govern
ments. a leak would have been GER

"As to our secret code being public

ment today. Commissioner Taylor con-
tinucd the hearing until $50 o clock to-
morrow afternoon. II Is expected de-
cis.on as to whether or not the men

Mr.. Davis today asked for the dis
charge of his clients on three grounds:
Because the Indictment charges no
crime against the United States: be-
cause 1t charges no crime committed in
the southern district of New York.

dispatch had not arrived. penfield
forwarded another version. which ar
rived before the original messaGe. The
original was .mysteriously DELAYED.
There now are three diplomatic codes
in use by American ambassadors, said
to be from five to seven years old.
European governments change their
codes at least three times evety two
years to keep them from falling into
the hands of spies.
The green code" supposed to be the
most secret of all. is said to be well un-
derstood by agents of European coun-
tries. The code by which American
naval attaches communicate with Sec
retary Daniels is equally we'll known.
Formerly when Washington sent a
note to a European power the embV ssy.
after decodin- the communica ton, al
ways paraphrased 1t. This was done so
that no code expert in the employ of A
foreign government could lay the en-
bassy translation by the side OF the
ca blcd code message and thus work out
the code.
Recently there have been several mis-
takes that have made it simple mat
ter for experts to learn the American
cipher. The State Department. for in
stance, gave out the copy of Austria 5
recent reply to the American note as it
was translated literally from the
American code. Any belligerent who
saw this translation and then saw the
code message as ii passed through the
hands of the telegraph official on its
way to Washington would have little
difficulty working out the code by use
OF cipher experts
The possibilities OF embassy couriers
being bribed to impart information is
another disturbing ia ctor. One such in
cident Is said to have been discovered
only recently bv one OF the American
embassies in Europe.
