A SABBATARIAN NUT

Orville l.. Kiplinger, chaplain Of
the Michigan City, Ind, retormatory,
tells the following instance OF a scru.
pulous conscience
Some years ago an insane patien,
was given to the immodest not to say
expensive, habit of te;anng his cloth
ing from him and converting jeans,
ticking, denim or whatever the
clothes were made of into carpet rags.
The prison physician demonstrated
with the shredding nut as follows:
Say, old man, you're certainly
making lot of unnecessary trouble
for us. We don't think it's fair.
wouldn't you like to make money!"
The insane man emphatically aver.
red his Willingness TO make ready
cash.
We'll, I'll tell you what III do"
resumed the doctor. II will give you
ten cents for every day YOU don't
tear your clothes OFF. Eh?"
The offender assented eagerly, and
started in TO make good. Tuesday
his clothes remained intact: Wednes-
day, ditto: Friday and Saturday tho
same. His reformation was the talk
of the institution.
But on Sunday morning the gar
ments the crazy man had worn all
week We're torn into strips and
thrown to the four winds of his cell.
What does this mean?" asked the
indignant physician. Il thought
had YOU hired to keep your clothes
on and he good"

ly, "you didn't suppose l was going
to work on Sunday did ou?"-From

tempered by economy. The last quail

sense is introduced he will recognize
that In the first place dogs of different
varieties requiredifferent feeding and
that even in the case of animals of
the same breed great deal must de-
pend upon the lives they are leading.
For instance, dog which Is being
hard worked should be given more

which is getting little in the way of
exercise, for II the former is underfed

latter il overfed is likely to break out

|. Dying for Ones Religion

Stephen died for his religion. Ma
poleon said, at is the cause and not
the death which make the martyr"
Life-or death-is worth while when
we are doing some noble work. Some
people die by inches for the cause they
love. 1t is one thing to charge a
trench, thru barbed wire entangle-
ments. and another to stay at home
with hard work OF broken health.
Stevenson, longing for the battle. and
compelled to fight it in bed, is a hero.
There are SO many countless ways Of
being heroic.
1t is as hard to live for ones relig-
ion as to die for it. Before the Civil
War, Henry Bowen of New York
vigorously opposed slavery. Some of
his customers in the South wrote and
told him he must stop his anti-slav-
cry utterance or they would not
trade with him any more. He
promptly sent them this telegram:
"My goods and not my principles are
fer sale" A laundryman in my city
signed petition to put the saloons
cut of certain residence district.
The saloons and breweries got busy.
Some of the hotels and business con-
Germs, whose laundry work he was
doing, telephoned that he must take
his name off from the petition or they
would withdraw their patronage. But
the name STAYED on the petition.
Friend laundryman was not to be brib-
ed or bullied. He lived up to his re-
ligion.

III. A Cutting Edge.

My father used to say he wanted
his knife to have cutting edge" so
he stropped it little longer. Steph
ems sermon had cutting edge" on
it. The people who heard it were
"cut to the heart" Every sermon
ought to "cut" somebody somewhere.
Perhaps it ought to cut YOU. What
would you do if it did? Stone the
preacher? That was what they did
to Stephen. That is the only answer
to the truth which some people make.
They withdraw their subscription to
the minister's salary or say mean
things about him and the church.
What truths with cutting edge
require proclamation today? Is it
any harder for minister to preach
them, because they are unpopular, TIM
it is for people to practice them, be-
cause they are difficult? How much
income would you give up for the
sake of being free-spoken? What
shall be said of the young man, Saul
of Tarsus, at whose feet the people
laid their clothes as witnesses when
Stephen was stoned? Why was he
silent? Why did he later confess
that he was wrong? Some courage,
that, don't you think? AS much
courage for his new convictions, as
Stephen had for his convictions! Have
you convictions with cutting edge,
for which you will live-or die?
Ill. The Recognition of Valor.
Valor is not limited in its express
sion to men only, or to those who are
grown up. Women and children are
sften as valorous as men. Corinna
Shattuck, over in Turkey, defying
the Turkish captain who would take
and kill the Armenian children in her
charge, was a woman of valor. So
was Joan of Arc, whose thrilling
story every young woman ought to
read and ponder. And we must not
omit Frances Willard, the wee little
heroine of the early temperance fight,
who knew no fear in her attacks on
the saloon.
Queen Victoria once passed thru
the army hospital for British soldiers
wounded in the wars of England.
Among them was mere lad who had
been awarded the Victoria Cross for
bravery in Africa. He had thrown
himself unselfshly in front of his
captain and had been shot thru the
lungs. The queen looked at him in
silence for a moment, as tho thinking
how she could farther reward him.
Then she gave him her hand and said,
"Good bye, my friend" After that
the young sergeant was a marked /
among the other patients. Many of
them had worn crosses but upon him
the queen had laid her hand and call
ed friend"
The day will come when GODS
hand will be laid upon every one of !
his heroes and heroines and he will
call them, "friends!" No reward can
equal the swell done, good and faith !
full servant" of Lord. Ts every
faithful soul that word will come,

DID YOU EAT YOUR
 FOUR BUSHELS
That is Your Share of the Worlds An
 nuaI Potato Crop.

The instinctive prejudice against new food plants prevented any gen. eraI utilization Of the potato in Flu rope for two centuries after it was brought from Peru by the Spaniards, and it did not begin to be grown as a crop until the period of the French revolution. Even then it had to be forced on the public by the persistent efforts of the French philanthropist, Parmentier, who demonstrated it's food possibilities by establishing a large number of soup kitchens for the poor of Paris. Potato soup still bears the name Parmentier-a homely memorial,
 but one that might not be ungrateful to a philanthropist, says c. r. Cook in the National Geographic Magazine.
 Historically speaking, the general
 utilization of the potato is still rela- lively recent. Less than a century ago it was still considered as something of a novelty among the farmers of the United States. Contrast with this the fact that about 100000, 900 bushels of potatoes are no wprOdUced annually in this country, and the worlds crop
 must be morethan 6,000,OO0,000 bush els.
 Tn eworld totaIe of six million bush els means that if the potato crop of the world were divided equally, there would be enough to give each inhab- itant of the earth about four bushels of potatoes. The value of a single po- tatO crop probably much exceeds that of all the gold that the Spanish con- querors took from the Incas.

THE REPUBLICAN CAUCUS.

Tonight the republicans are called upon to assemble in caucus for the purpose of electing delegates to the state, congressional senatorial and probate conventions. It is not mere ly a perfunctory service which they are asked to render but one of much importance to the state, districts and party. It is even more for it is inn portant to themselves that those who are selected as the candidates for the various offices all the way from con gressman and governor to judge of ble of the duties which will devolve upon them if elected, and men of judgment should be selected to see that the best possible men are chosen.
 Thus 1t is necessary that the dele gations should be made up of repre- sentative citizens who can be relied upon to give the proper attention to the interests of those who will be rep resented.
 The caucus should not therefore be sighted. Even though it is but pri- mary action, serious consideration should be given to it. It will be too late to complain after the selections have been made that others should have been chosen. It is entirely pos sible that there will be a contest but Q contest is often the bringer of much good if properly conducted. Whether there is a contest or not there should be a large turnout of republicans. In terest, however, should not be allowed to depend entirely upon such fea- t1Jre

 Whenever lynchings take place the people of Georgia are not always re- sponsible. There are other states where such glaring violations of law are committed with even greater dis plays of barbarity than take place in Georgia, but it has been shown that that state is not only hotbed of law lessness in that respect but it leads all others.
 In connection with Georgia's dis regard for the necessity of overcom- ing this blot which at the present time rests upon it. reference is made to the fact that when the last lynch ing took place in North Carolina it was followed by the arrest of a score and a half persons, the removal of the sheriff and the denunciation of lynching by the governor. How those arrested were punished is not indi- cated but without that knowledge 1t is apparent that Georgia has not thus far shown as much opposition to lynch ing as North Carolina has.
