With joyous shouts, high in the air
Our hats for him who wins are tossed,
But what Of him, OF honOrs bare,
Who strove as q, nestly-and lost?
Fen though his eyes with tears are dim,
An thought of him viii quickly fade
Except when men refer TO him
For the poor showing that he made.
And yet We sometimes must confess,
AS We see men to honor rise,
Some are less worthy of success
Than he who failed to win the prize
Because he was unfairly used
BY those We thought should him be-
friend
And that his good name was abused
BY some who to such tricks descend
The world in this seems to delight
Nor OF the means employed complains
No matter If by wrong or right
OF one who victory attains.
But we in this may solace find,
View ii from any point we choose
1t seems rs IL 1t was designed
For some to win and some TO lose.

A TALE or TURKEY.
Queer Things That Happened In the
Name of the Constitution.


The ignorance of the Turkish masses
concerning political questions, says Sir
Edwin Pears in Forty Years In Con.
stantinople." is shown by certain in
cidents of the revolution of 1908 The
hamals, or p0rters, in the towns, like
the peasants in the country. when
they heard that his majesty had sworn
to he faithful to the constitution, in
quired what it was Was it person
Was it new caIiph? And very few
could give any clear explanation. The
words liberty" and equality" meant
something good. although they could
not have said what. To some they
signitied general license.
Two English friends OF mine were
motoring outside Smyrna when num-
Der Of Turkish boys set upon them
and flung stones at them. The Eng
lishmen gave chase and caught the
principal offenders. The eldest was
asked why he had thrown stones.
"Hurriet var" was the reply.
There's liberty. We can do what we
like now"
The Englishman replied, "Hurriet
var. and am at liberty to give you
good thrashing, am notY'
One Of the boys said yes, he supposed
that would he so, but he hoped the
liberty would not be used. The Eng
lishman replied that it would not he
used that time, but il the offense were
repeated he would use it to the fullest
extent
The w0rkmen on newspaper during
that time asked for large increase
Of wages
But Why asked the owner.
Because there Is constitution"
The tramway men struck for higher
wages. and the only justification that
they put forward was that there was
now constitutions Yet men of all
classes cheered In the luStiest manner
for the constitution. Throughout the
month of August smuggled tobacco
was openly sold In the streets at a
very cheap rate. buyers and sellers
alike considering that the constitution
allowed men to set aside the law that
had made the sale Of tobacco govern

POTASH FROM WYOMING LAVA.

1t has been known for number of
years that lava in the Leucite hills.
Sweetwater county, Wyo., is composed
largely of leucite, a mineral rich in
potash. This lava, called wyomingite.
is there very abundant, and the total
quantity of potash it contains is i'm
mense. estimated at 200,000.000 tons.
Like the gold i'll sea water, however, it
has not yet been profitably extracted.
In a series Of experimental studies Of
the reactions of various salts on wy
Omingite under certain conditions Rog-
er c. Wells of the chemical laboratory
of the United States geological survey
has obtained interesting results as to
the extraction Of potash from wyoming
ite which are published in the surveys
professional paper SO ID. Mr. Wells pa
per may prove suggestive to chemists
who are studying methods of extrac-
ton of potash from igneOus rocks.

CANINE SWEETNESS.
Eskimo and Siberian Dogs Are Fast,
but the Greyhound Excels.

but the Greyhound Excels.
Few people realize of what remark
able speed dogs are capable. Some sta
tistics ia regard to this have been gath
cred by Nj. Dusolier, a French scientist.
After pointing out the marvellous en-
durance shown by little fox terriers
who followed their masters patiently
for hours while they were riding on hi
cycles or in carriages he says that even
greater endurance is shown by certain
wild animals that are akin to dogs.
mus the wolf can run between fifty
and sixty miles in one night, and an
arctic fox can do quite as well. If not
better
Eskimo and Siberian dogs can travel
forty-hve miles on the ice in five hours
and there is case on record in which
team of Eskimo dogs travelled six
and one-half miles in twenty-eight min
utes
According to NJ. DuSolier. the speed
Of the shepherd dogs and those used on
hunting ranges is from ten to fifteen
yards second. English settlers and
pointers run at the rate Uf eighteen TO
nineteen miles an hour, and they can
maintain this speed for at least two
hours. Fox hounds are extraordinarily
swift, as il proved by the fact that a
dog OF this breed once beat a thorough
bred horse, covering four miles in six
and half minutes which was at the
rate OF nearly eighteen yards a second.
Greyhounds are the swiftest of all
four footed creatures, and their speed
is equal to that of carrier pigeons.

BERLIN GAINS ON
 WESTERN FRONT
SAYS FRENCH POSITIONS AT TWO POINTS CAPTURED-30o PRlS-
 OVERS WERE TAKEN.

London.-With offensive already under way in Champagne and Artois the Germans have begun a third az gressive movement of large propor- tons in upper Alsace.
 Here, according to the Paris com munique, the French were forced to give way when the trenches they had occupied east of Seppois were leveled by the intensity of the German ar tillery fire. The fighting for the posi- tion had been in progress for two days.
 The Berlin report gives the width of the conquered section as 400 yards. The artillery battle continues with out cessation.
 A trench section 700 yards wide was captured by the Germans north west of Tahure, in Champagne. ac- cording to the Berlin statement More than 300 French prisoners were taknn and two machine guns captured Vio- lent artillery actions continue near Tahure, Massiges and Navarin. No
  taken.
 In Artois the German movement met with disaster. South of Prise, be- low the Somme, the Germans made an attempt to surround the French outpost trenches The engagement developed into battle proportions and the offensive advantages soon swung to the side of the French. The French swept over the German works. cap turing section of trench and later a German counter attack was broken up by the French artillery fire. One German company was surrounded and decimated. More than 100 German prisoners were taken and several ma chine guns captured.

FUTURE WILL SHAPE
 ARMED SHIP POLICY
COME, IF ANY, AFTER MARCH 1.

Washington.-Th United States probably will leave to future develop ments whether any action will be taken in response to the announce ment from the Teutonic allies that armed merchantmen, beginning March 1, will be subjected to submarine at. tack without warning.
 From high official quarters came the intimation that the memoranda re- ceived from the German and Austrian governments are considered in them selves a sufficient warning to Ameri- age on merchant ships of the class of vessels affected by the order.
 The United States, admittedly, has found itself to be in a delicate posi- tion as a result of its memorandum to the entente allies and the memoran- dunn from the central powers.
 Should this government approve of the position of the Teutonic allies, It is believed diplomatic controversies immediately would result, and it might even be charged that the Unit ed States had committed an unneutral act of benefit to the enemies of the entente.
 On the other hand the central pow CTS, it is believed. might be offended should the State Department criticize adversely their memoranda. which was generally regarded to be a devel- opment of the American memoran- dunn, suggesting the disarming of mer- chantmen.
 By allowing future developments to determine the stand of the United States, it was pointed out, all diff ul- ty could be avoided at this time.
 From one quarter came an indica- tion that officials may call the atten- tion of Americans to the orders of the central powers when they secure pass ports for travel abroad. Just how the attention of Americans in Europe could be brought to the order has not been determined.
 It is pointed out that the danger of Americans travelling from the United States in British and French ships would, in any event, be slight; ships of those nationalities entering Ameri- can waters not being armed. They, therefore. are immune from the new program of the central powers; and their safety is guaranteed by assur' ances previously given.

HAVE ROSY CHEEKS
 AND FEEL FRESH AS
 A DAlSY-TRY THIS!
Says glass of hot water with phosphate before breakfast
 washes out poisons.

To see the tinge of healthy bloom in your face, to see your skin get clearer and clearer, to wake up with out a headache, backache, coated tongue or a nasty breath, in fact to feel your best, day in and day out, just try bathing every morning for one week
 Before breakfast each day, drink glass of real hot water with tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it as harmless means of washing from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous days indigestible waste, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate or an empty stomach is wonderfully in vigorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations, gases and acidity and gives one splendid appetite for breakfast.
 A quarter pound of limestone phos- phate will cost very little at your drug gist or general store, but is sufficient to demonstrate that just as soap and hot water cleanses, sweetens and freshens the skin, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the blood and internal organs. Those who are subject to constipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach, rheumatic twinges, also those whose skin is sallow and con- plexion pallid, are assured that one week of inside-bathing will have them both looking and feeling better in ev- cry way.-Adv.

SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
 DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandma's Recipe of Sage and Sulphur and
 Nobody Will Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed. brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome.
 Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for ''Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Hair Remedy" You will get a large bottle for about 50 cents. Every body uses this old, famous recipe, be- cause no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it So naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair. taking one small strand at time; by morn ing the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.

SECRETARY DANIELS ASKS CON, GRESS FOR EMERGENCY
 APPROPRIATION.
SAYS MANY MINES NEEDED
1t Is Claimed This Mode of Warfare Has Attained Such Importance in European Struggle, Supply
 Should Be Increased.

Washington.-A S2,757,000 emergen- cy appropriation for repairs to ma. chinery in battleships, torpedo de- stroyerS and submarines, to add to the supply of mines and for the first time to equip battleships with anti-aircraft guns, was asked of Congress by Sec retary Daniels.
 Many of our destroyers have reached an age where renewals of ex- tensive portions of their machinery equipment is necessary" Secretary Daniels said. The same is true of submarines, both classes of vessels making a big drain on this years ap. propriation."
 The boilers of the battleshfps Georgia and Virginia, both of which have been in almost constant service for 10 years, have shown such weak ness, MT. Daniels said, as to require that these vessels be withdrawn from active service to have their boilers re- placed
 The estimates were referred to the app opl idIlouS COlHiulllee lOT lHCiu- sion in the urgent deficiency bill.
 "The largest single item under the bureau of ordnance is for mines," Sec retary Daniels said. Mining has at tained in the existence of war abroad such importance as to point strongly to the advisability of increasing the provision for this method of defense"
 Other items are engineering, $900,- 900; construction and repairs, s6S0,- 900; contingent expenses, $S5,000; maintenance. yards and docks, $52,000. and repairs, S45,000.
 The communications dismissed the anti-aircraft gun situation with the statement that the United States has none in its service.
