He reflected that across the Atlantic millions
OF human beings were at that very moment en-
gagged in the dreadful task of killing other human
beings with every invention which ingenuity and
skill could bring forth from the laboratories or
science and the workshops Of industry.
In other lands at that very moment tens OF
thousands upon tens OF thousands Of helpless
folk-feeble, aged men and women, mothers with
babes clngine convulsively TO their breasts little
children sobbng in terror, a vast army of the in
nocent and the angulshed-were enduring the ex-
tremities of exposure of hunger, and of despair
as they fled from their wasted farnsteads and
burning villages, escaping from the piess cruelty
of savage only to lie down to suffer and die
under the ptiless skies of God in the winter and
the bitter storms
At that very moment most dreadful war hid
half the world in the blackness Of its darkness
and from that horrid cloud rained destruction
upon unhappy Europe-upOn her ancient capitals
upon her pleasant cities, upon her villages. her
fields, her temples her treasures of art, upon all
the accumulatiOns OF thousand years of genius,
of learning OF industry, Of skill and of patient
advancement of the happiness and the civilization
OF the race OF man.
So he that considered all this wickedness that
was being done under the sun. this drunken dance
of death and hell above the fetid corpses and the
multitudinous graves, this awful nightmare OF In
descrlbabe and wrath. said In the bitterness
of his heart that no God ruled such maniac
world and there was no thanksgiving due to the
Giver of Gifts that were not good, but everyone
altogether evil.
And when the man had made an end or hiS
thinking he went and stood in a window and
looked out upon the evening because II was fair

He saw in vision AT that instant the vastness
of the republic and the multitude of the good and
happy folk who live under the shelter Of It's
strength He reflected how brief time had thus
magnfed the works Of pioneer fathers and

and women whose names should never he men

DRINK A CLASS
 OF REAL HOT WATER
 BEFORE BREAKFAST. Says we will both look and feel clean, sweet and fresh
 and avoid illness.

Sanitary science has of late made rapid strides with results that are of untold blessing to humanity, he latest application of its untiring research is the recommendation that it is as ne cessary to attend to internal sanita- tion of the drainage system of the human body as it is the drains of a house.
 Phose of us, who are accustomed to feel dull andheavy when we arise, splitting headache. stuffy from cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom- ach, can, instead feel as fresh as d daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out whole of the internal poisonous stag nant matter.
 Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning before breakfast, drink glass of real hot water with teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stom- days indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach iswonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations. gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid ap- petite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the phosphat- ed hot water is quietly extracting a large volume of water from the blood and getting ready for thorough Flushing of all the inside organs.
 The millions of people who are bothered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness; others who have sallow skins, blood disorders and sickly con pleXions are urged to get a uarters pound of limestone phosphate from the drug store This will cost very little but is sufficient to make one a pronounced crank on the subject of in ternal constipation,- n,-Advertisement.

MILD LAXATIVE COMPOUND COR RECTS STUBBORN CASE OF
 CONSTIPATION

An important duty that devolves on parents is the regulation of their chil- drcn's bowels. Health in later life depends in large measure on early training and a child should be taught from infancy to regular habits.
 When from any cause the bowel be- comes congested with stomach waste a mild laxative should be employed 70 open up the passage gently and car " off the cOngested mass. A most eff fective remedy for this purpose is the combination of simple laxative herbs known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pep. sin. Mrs. w. D. Bulls, Of Reed.

SPRING FOOTBALL PRACTICE ALONG
 NEW LINES HERE

PROVIDENCE, R. I..-Coach F.. N.
 Robinson of the Brown University foot ball team has arranged something new
 in the way of spring work for his squad or players now in camp, differ ent from the usual order of spring practice and novel enough to arouse interest in the game even at this off season of the year.
 Instead of calling last years players out 10 the field for the ordinary run of spring practice, he will hold a series of evening meetings in one of the large rooms in the Brown Union. This room vii lbe arranged to resemble a miniature field, fer placed in the cen ter will be biz board painted green and laid out to scale to represent an actual gridirOn. At either end will be the seats for the players. the coaches and such spectators as will be invited to attend Dummy figures of wood. easily handled and pushed about, will represent the players.
 With this outfit. designed and con- structed, under the direction of Prof. r. w. Marvel, Browns director of ath- letics, Coaches Robinson and Sprack- ling. assisted by a number of old Brown football men, will go over the games of last fall. will recall the sig nals used. will propose new plays and possibilities for next season.
 Brown was perfectly satisfied with the new system of plays which Coach Robinson introduced last fall, for an analysis of the seasoR's work shows that the team had remarkable rec ord in yardage gained With the play CTS on the squad. and very few will be lost by graduation in June, already well grounded in the fundamentals of the system. and with the good results which should come from the spring course of work. it is no wonder that satisfied feeling as to the future pre- yails here.

U. OF SOU. CAL.
 TO PROTEST MEET
School and L. A. Athletic Club as One at Cor
 wallis. 7

According to a report from Los Angeles, Coach Dean Cromwell of the University of Southern California will file protest with the Amatuer Athletic Union in connection with the Far Western Indoor Championships. recently held at Corvallis. Oregon.
 Cromwell claims that the meet should have been awarded to the combined teams of the University of Southern California and the Los An geles Athletic Club. which totaled 43 points as against the Oregon Agricul- tural Colleges 40 points.
 The coach says that the understand ing before the meet was to the effect that the two southern combinations had entered as one team. In award ing the meet to the aggies it is claim ed that the officials ignored this proviso and insisted that the points make by each organization be scored separately.

CHICAGO, April 15.-The prospects of baseball for 1916 are very bright There is tremendous enthusiasm a mong the fans, which augurs well for the sport throughout the country. As for as the American League is con cerned, feel safe in predicting an un- usually prosperous and successful sea son from every standpoint. In the first place, in my opinion, there will be remarkable pannant race. There are six well matched clubs in the Am erican League and they should fight it out right down the stretch.
 The peace agreement resulting in the elimination of the Federal League also will have a beneficial effect on baseball.

RECORD OF KELLY
 WITHOUT PARALLEL California Hurdler Breaks Two World Records, Ties
 for Third.

Friends Of Fred Kelly, the worlds champion hurdler believe that his performances all within ten days which he recently accomplished, are without parallel in the annals of athletics. Here are the events he won in the ten days, in which he made two worlds records and tied third.
 Occidental meet. March 22 12C yard hurdles; 220 yard hurdles; 220 yard dash, in 22 A-5 seconds around two bad turns.
 Stanford meet. March 25. 120 yard hurdles, in 15, 2-5. 220 yard hurdles (second to Fred Murray in 24 4-5, worlds record for curved track. =
 Berkeley meet March 29 100 yard dash, in 10 1-5 seconds; 120 yard hurdles, in 15 fiat
 Corvallis meet, April 1. 80 yard dash, in 1-5, worlds record; so yard hurdles, in 10 seconds, tieing worlds record; 220 yard dash, in 23 seconds, new worlds record; broad jump.
 Last Fall kelly broke bone in his ankle while playing football and many thought at that ti.le that the famous athlete would never again be able to regain his old time form. As mat ter of fact he now appears to be at the zenith of his capabilities and it would occasion no surprise if he should annex sno,he worlds record or two before the close of the present season.

The Y M. C. A held a boxing festi- val the other nigbt which was not all festival. At least, one of the bouts resembled nothing so much as Coro- nado Beach bather searching for 9 flea in his bathrobe. Not but what he had every evidence that the flea was somewhere in the vicinity, but he could not make out its exact wherea- bouts.
 At that it was good show. His op- ponent torreadored him around the ring till he looked like lost soul in a crystal palace, lowering over him as completely as a tent, and raining blows down on him as though the sky had fallen on him. He was a Mister Slip-it-oyer-on-himself this handy dan dy. but the way he bedazzled his op- ponent would have been pathetic; if it hadn't been so humorous.
 No man, however good, is indispen- sible, even to ball team. Iris Speak CT was the highest paid player in the business, and was regarded as about half the team at Boston, but the Red Sox seem to be getting along pretty well without him. Two victories and no defeats wouldn't suggest the club is demoralized by the loss of him.
 That four team league in Bisbee lis tens mighty good to the Bisbee fans. There's a world of talent in Bisbee, and it's an economic waste not to be using it.

 The macadamized Corona course was extremely hard on tires owing to the excessive heat, which brought the oil to the surface of the track making it like the top of an oven. The high speed maintained combined with this heat kept the tires so hot that the hands of the pitmen who handled them
