THE VALUE OF A SMILE.

Statisticians accurately measure the wealth
Iof the mines and of farms and even OF the sea
and the air-billions upon billions!
/ But there are no figures vast enough to ex-
press the value to mankind of so small and SIM
pie thing as smile.
1t is material world. We value as riches
only the tangible things we can grasp and hold
in our hands And, yet, the real treasures OF
ilfe which give to all these outward things their
meaning. are of the heart.
Tangible riches? Why, but for SO ''lntangl-
ble' thing as sunlight, the whole material
universe would be black nothingness; but Tor
ssintangible'' heat, not the smallest atom OF
earth could exist but for Intangible" colors
and fragrances, the sweetest flower would be
a weed; and, but for the Intangible light and
warmth and fragrance Of smile, the most per
fectly- human face could be but ifeless cast
1t would be very interesting and highly In
structive if one could compute the value OF the
part which the smile has played in the history
of humanity. But, like the ray of sunshine that
comes from the boundless heart of universal
love. it is free-it costs nothing-and so cannot
be relatively valued. And like the sunshine
again, it gilds with glory all it falls upon, and
so is limitless in value.
Impossible as is this computation, there are
few of us who have not learned that it is smile,
not a frown, which makes things move in this
world. If you don't know this, college diplo
ma, certifying that you are educated, is joke,
Of gray head, indicating practical experience,
IS mockery.

THE MARK OF THE M1sER.

AS was to have been expected, the life of the
late and not generally lamented Hetty Green
has been used to point no end of morals. All her
unpleasant idiosyncrasies have been recalled,
and fac SMILES have been published Of the sig
nature to will that she was charged with hav-
ing forged. No biographer seems to have discov-
cred anything commendable in her career ex-
cept that she was transformations and spent
no money foolishly. But this in her case, was
at best negative sort of virtue growing out of
her practice of spending as little possible for
any purpose, either good or bad.
To the credit of many Americans of the So
called money mad type whose ruling passion is
the amusement of enormous fortunes it can be
said with truth that their delight is in getting
rather than in boarding. It is the game that
they enjoy and not the stakes that they are at
ter; and they often spend their money as cheer
fully as they take it in. Generally they ex-
pend some part of it for the good of other peo-
pie or leave great sums for philanthropic uses.
Rarely indeed do they deny themselves a COW
teted comfort or luxury their money could buy.
To do this is the mark of the miser; and Mrs.
Green was one of the few Americans of very
great wealth who can be properly classified as
such, inasmuch as she boarded her fortune dur
ing life and made no posthumous benefactions
with it.

EXIT CARRANZA, PERHAPS.

Shades of Diaz, Madero. Huerta! What must
be their feelings and thoughts as they view
their country under the rule Of Carranza and
the men who surround and dictate the moves
of the first chief Of the alleged republic? If re-
ports from northern Mexico are to be believed,
CarTanza's sway Of authority will be brief and
he may soon be removed from the troubled wa
ters of administration, as were his predecessors
The Mexican generals who would perma-
nent peace with the United States are gathering
in Chihuahua with the object of perfecting
plans that will eliminate Carranza and Obre-
gon The man slated to succeed Carranza as
ttular ruler of Mexico is said to be Francisco
de la Barra. Both Carranza and Obregon will
be "requested' to leave the country for the
country's good
Rumors of the approaching coup are gaining
wide circulation throughout northern Mexico
and it generally seems to meet with popular ia
vor The masses realize that under Carranza
they are starving, and they are willing to I'M
dertake any desperate enterprise for the sake
of their families The purposes of the new gov
eminent, it is said, will be not only to allow the
masses a voice in the administration of govern
ment and the PRONUNCIATION of reforms, but
also to call back the wealthy exiles and bring
to bear the entire forces Of the republic into ac-
ton for the rebuilding of Mexico.
Truly ambitious program and one that
may be carried out with success, especially that
part of it having for its object the suppression
of Carranza. But the making over of Mexico is
a problem that will take years in solution and
the men who now attempt to set the movement
afoot should be satisfied if they lay a strong
foundation for the builders who will come after

Careless Use of
Soap Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully, if
you want to keep your hair looking its
best. Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too mitch alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is Jus.
ordinary nulsihcd cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
rnoisten the hair with water and rub Il
in. 1t makes an abundance of rich.
creamy lather, which rinses out easily.
removing every particle of dust, dirt.
dandruf and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get rnulsified cocoanut oil at
any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and few
ounces will supply every member of the
family for months.

MAKING EFFICIENT OFFICERS.

The largest class in the history of West
Point will enter our military academy tbs year.
It numbers 30S members, which is about half the
size of the former cadet corps whole. This
is good news it means that we shall now be
training officers for our increased military es-
Establishment in the best possible school. Aside
from it's bearing on army efficiency, it means
that these young men are attracted to this train
ing, which is admittedly as severe in its stand
ards as that of any similar school in the world,
because of the extended opportunities for ac-
tive service and promotion for efficiency given
under the new military bill This is long
step toward creating a good regular army for
the country; the next step is to put In operation
the same stimulation to gain recruits to the
ranks.

TODAY,s BIT OF VERSE
DUTY,

DUTY.
To do your little bit of toll,
To play lifes game with head erect;
To stoop to nothing that would soil
Your honor or your self respect;
To win what gold and fame you can
But first OF all to be man.
To know the bitter and the sweet,
The sunshine and the days OF rain;
To meet both victory and defeat
Nor boast. too loudly or complain;
To face whatever fates befall
And be a man throughout it all.
To seek success in honest strife,
But not to value it SO much
That winning it you go through life
Stained by dishonor's scarlet touuch
What goal or dream you choose. pursue,
But be man, whateer you do,

Waterloo Courier: Succeeding SO
brilliant a jurist as Charles e.

Council Bluffs Nonpareil: There are
some evidences on the surface that
the European war may be nearing
some sort of an end. Less war orders
are being received and there is a
slump in prices Of some commodities
which indicate that the warning coun-
tries have enough on hand to meet
their requirements.

hope to approach the standard of the

COLD LIGHT.

The reported discovery of cold light, or light
without heat, doubtless causes tremor in the
scientific world, but in the news dispatches re-
tailed to this country from Paris the new
triumph of invention is mentioned only as d
convenient and efficient light for moving pic
ture machines.
What though men have worked away their
lives in laboratories in pursuit of cold light;
what though hundred uses for it have been
If light without heat has been discovered at
last, new and pure light many times stronger
than any hitherto available will be at the dis
posal of the scientists. The movies if they
really do benefit at all, will be clearer. the dan
ger of fire will be reduced, and new process
of film manufacture may be attempted.
And, at that, this movie possibility is about
the most interesting use that can be imagined
for any lighting invention.
Let the French scientists keep to their lab
oratories while longer; they may yet produce
painless muzzling device for movie fans who
want to explain the pictures. If that miracle
comes to pass many long suffering attendants
at the picture theaters will give thanks.
Nobody. outside Of spectators and frenzied
financiers, now gives much thought to the daily
doings of Wall street. The gamblers with 9th
er peoples money are complaining of dull bust
ness, which is good business for the rest of the
country.
