EVANGELICAL CHURCH

The world throbs and pulsates-
1t moves, it turns and it spins. 1t
bulges at its circumference-Its in
habitants slide, they roll and fall over
each other. then even ride in order
to keep from being left behind. They
pant, they fume, they struggle amid
the smoke and dust. They live in
deeds, cloudy deeds, black deeds.
They live in actions and they seldom
have time for words.
Go slower-Take little time to
meditate-Do not forget God.
The attendance last Sunday was
good and we are encouraged.

sELF-CoNTRoL COMES FIRST
Man Must BE Able to Rule Himself Be-
fore He Can BE Allowed to
Rule Others.

The other day man who makes his
living by fighting was struck by an
understood man, and instead of return
ing the blow he walked away from his
dimnutive assailant.
This man exhibited much more self
control than the majority of people.
Men who class themselves as being
on higher plane than this fighting
man would have mixed Immediately
with the hot-headed individual.
What would you have done?
The chances are that you would
have rushed at the fellow with all
your might: you would have permitted
your savage instincts to rule you.
This proves that you have not as
much power as you should have over
your impulses.
You may boss other people, but you
are not boss of yourself.
Maybe you wonder why others are
forging ahead of you as leaders of
men.
1t is because they have check rein
on themselves. They have schooled
themselves that they may be able to
guide others. Self-control is the at
tribute OF q leader.-Chicago Ameri-
can.

GERMS INJURIOUS TO HEALTH!
oecayed Teeth One of the Most Po-
tentia Causes of Disease in
the Human Family.

A hole in tooth is due to decay.
The animal matter of which the tooth
is composed is decaying. In that mass
of decaying matter the germs of all
kinds OF disease find hotbed of fer
lie soil in which to thrive and multi
ply End grow strong.
Swarms of them go down into the
stomach with every swallow some of
them being destroyed by the action of
the stomach juices, but some passing
ato the blood and being distributed
o organs OF the body, where they
edge and cause tuberculosis, pneu-
.oDia, sore throat, appendicitis and
I2ay ether diseases.
n fact, it is difficult to pick out a
,ilGie disease rc which we are sub
ect that may not enter the body by
"ay OF a decayed tooth. Decayed and
tokea-down teeth prevent proper
-Isticaton OF the food, and this in
,urn causes malnutrtion or poor nour-
ehment Of the body, which means
physical degeneracy, and physical de-
"oncracy means mental and moral de-
cneTaCy.

Old Waterbury Watch Recalled.

The takers are selling a new toy
It's a fake watch winder-a cog with
a ratchet that makes loud click. The
idea is to take out your watch and at
tempt to wind it, at the same time
working the toy which is concealed in
the palm of the hand. The noise it
makes sounds like the winding of
town clock. For the love of Mike"
exclaimed an ex-puddler, now broker,
who was attracted by the noise man
was making while winding his time
piece, what kind of turnip have you
there anyway? That sound reminds
me of a rafting of the pinions on a
set of muck mill rolls" The stranger
showed the toy and the former Pitts
burgher said the drinks were on him.

Valentine Theatre.

A feast is in store for the vast army
of theatre,goers who revel in romantic
drama, for Guy Bates Post is sched-
uled to return to Toledo, this time to
the Valentine Theatre, for four days
commencing Sunday, Feb. 9th, with
a matinee on Wednesday, IN Richard
Walton Tully's Persian love-play,
"Omar, the Tent maker" :"
"Omar, the Tentmaker" deals in
captivating manner with the engros-
sing love.life of Omar Khavyam, the
merry. hearted Persian poet and mys-
tic of the Eleventh Century, whose
haunting beautiful quatrains glorifS =
ing earthly existence are world treas
ures. Like page from the Arabian
Nights do the picturesque characters
enact forth their destinies in terms of
red-blood, exciting escapades, thrill
ing love-scences and valiant sacri-
fees. During almost the entire c.
ton of the play the stage is thickly
peopled, and it is doubtful if so faith
full representation of the fascina.
tions and bewildering charms of ORR
entail life has ever before been set
forth upon the stage, as has been de-
signed by Mr.. Tully, in association
with Wilfred Buckland.
Of particular interest is the vast
assemblage of almost invaluable Per-
sian properties, including rugs, mar
vellous silks, priceless potteries and
wonderful garments displayed throug-
out. The action is constantly brisk
and engrossing.

STILL THE LAND OF GOLD
californla's output of the Precious
Metal So Far Shows Little Sign
of Prophesied Dlminution.

Careful estimates place the Cali
fornia gold output for 1915 at fully
$2,200,00O more than the previous
year, when the total output was $40
653,496 The yield will easily be the
largest in 80 years, and, with one ex-
ception, the largest in 81 years. So
California still remains the premier
gold-producing state in the Union.
Placer mining for gold. for years con-
sidered a decadent industry in Cali.
fornia, has for the past Is years been
growing in importance, until now the
placer mines are producing "A per
cent of the total gold yield, the other
Sc per cent coming from deep mines.
This condition has been entirely
brought about by the dredging opera
tions, the gold dredges now producing
some Sc per cent of the placer gold.
The present tendency is toward extern
sive yardage in dredging operations,
so the new machines are much larger
and more powerful than those built
formerly. 1t is considered probable
that for this reason the yield of
dredge-gold in California will continue
about the same for some years, even
though the old and smaller machines
discontinue operations. A gold dredg-
er is now being built to dig 70 feet
below the water line. There was
distinct revival in all kinds of metal
mining in the state in 1915, particular
ly in gold mining. The dredgemen
have begun operations on tracts for
merly considered too small for this
class of work; and numerous quartz
mines were reopened, while the older
ones were deepened with good results.

ALL BIRDS FLEE FOREST
Argonne, Where French and Germans
Are in Conflict, Deserted by Their
Natural Inhabitants.

When the history of the present Eu-
ropean war is written, the forest of
Argonne will be recorded as the
place where more blood was shed than
in any other spot on the wide fields
of conflict. The French made a stand
there on the first German drive to-
wards Paris, and, later, when the
Germans were forced back, it was the
scene of weeks and months of desper-
ate struggle.
Not bird is left in the forest and
practically every tree, which remains
standing, bears the mark of battle. 1t
was swept by artillery fire time after
time. and was the scene of desperate
hand-to-hand fighting.
But it was not the first time, for in
the campaign preceding the battle of
Sedan, in the Franco-German war Of
1870, it was the scene of many' SAN
culinary struggles.
The forest covers a number OF
wooded heights, 500 or 900 feet high,
in the northeastern port of France in
French Lorraine and Champagne. 1t
is about thirty miles long, and from
one to eight miles wide. 1t is bounded
by the sources of the Aisne, runs along
that river to the Meuse and northward
to Chene-Populeux, separating a
stretch of fertile plains from the bar
rem steppes between Vitry and Sc,
zanne.

The springbok, which has been
adopted for the device of the South AT
rican contingent for Europe, was so
named by the first Dutch settlers from
habit of suddenly leaping in the air,
and is the characteristic antelope of
the Union. 1t occurs almost every
where, from the Cape to Rhodesia,
Prodigious herds of springbok some
times travel through the country in
dense masses that sweep away hocks
of sheep or goats, and even carry with
them entangled lions. These curious
migrations are inspired by an instinct
which tells the hungry herds where
rain has lately fallen and caused new
Ecwth of grass.

What Is a Barmecid Feast?

The model of Bagdad was the older
Persian capital of Ctesiphon, situated
only few miles away, Doubtless also
most of the builders employed by
Mansur were Persians. for his desert
Arabs were not versed in that art.
Persian influence was conspicuous
from the first, and the chief advisers
of the Abbasids were all Persians un-
til the time of Harun-al-Rashid. They
belonged to the famous Barmacid fam
lily whose power began with Khalid,
Mansur's vizier, and ended with Jaf-
far, who used to accompany his mas
ter Harun in his incognito excursions
through the streets of his capital in
search of adventures that are familiar
to every child. Despite his romantic
picturesqueness, Harun was a weak
ling, and like many another oriental
tyrant his last days were marked
with shocking cruelties, one of the
worst of which was the slaughter OF
the whole Barmecid family at a feast
that has become a proverb with us
today.-William Warfield in Harper's 8
