Kitten Puts Out Fire.

John is only black and white kit
ten of nondescript breed, but if there
is such thing as a medal for brave
ry he certainly has claim upon it.
One morning I was sitting before
the fireplace, watching John as he
lay on a hassock on the opposite side,
apparently asleep, but he was far
from it. We were burning some old
trash in the fireplace, and suddenly,
with a report like that of pistol
shot, a cinder about as large as a
dime came flying through the air and
alighted in a basket used by John as
a sleeping place. This basket was
lined with a wooden cloth and the
cinder began to shoulder and an in
cipient fire was at once under way.
John, giving the call of the cat tribe,
pounced on the blazing cloth, tramp
ed it out with his fore feet, and then,
when he was quite satisfied it was
extinguished, quietly curled up and
went to sleep, just as though he had
not done a thing that was a wonder
full exhibition of feline sense.-Our

WHY SMITH WENT TO CHURCH.
Worked on Lines of Business anC
Found it Necessary.

Smith had got out of the habit OF
going to church. There were plenty
of other people to go, he thought, and
he liked to loaf Sunday mornings.
Then the thought occurred to him
one day: Suppose everybody else
should do the same thing. What
would become of the churches!
Would | be willing to see them 60
out of business? Would church
less town be a good town to live in?
These ideas were all along busl-
ness lines, for Smith was accustomed
to thinking in terms of business. But
they got in on him enough so that
he decided he wouldn't dodge his
own responsibility. and he started
going to church.
Then he found there was some
thing more to it than mere business
1t dawned on him that worship. as
DR.. Cabot. Of Boston, had said IN
book. was one Of the things men live
by. and that religion existed in every
part of the world because humanity
could not get on without it. SO Smith
kept on going to church.-kansas

Ancient Advertising.

Advertising was we'll known in the
palmy days of Egypt. Of course they
didn't have the electric signs blazing
across the sky; they didn't know that
red makes the best color for adver-
tising, green the second and black the
next. but they understood the first
principles, and applied them in daily
| life.
Perhaps the first bit of advertising
COPY was the lost, strayed or stolen
advertisement written by an Egyp-
tian on a slip of papyrus when his
favorite slave was missing.
The Greeks had even greater skill.
They advertised their concerts, musl-
cal affairs, plays and contests. They
gave up the idea of using bands to
attract crowd, for they sent around
their cities town crier. accompanied
by musician playing harp or Tyre.
He praised extravagantly in the best
of Greek the thing he was advertis-
ing. Later the people began to ad-
vertise privately, on the walls of
their homes, giving information about
the standing of the family occupying
the house and the state of their fl
nanceS.
The Romans went them one better.
They named their streets, advertised
shows, sales and exhibitions in their
public bath, notified the public of
sales of estates, posted lists of ar
ticles lost and found and houses for
sale or rent.
When the Huns swept down upon
Rome the advertisements disappear
ed with the Roman power, and did
not return until the town crier of the
middle ages began advertising again.

EFFORTS TO INCITE NEGROES.
Government Officers Confirm Reports
That German Agents are Busy.

Birmingham, April 4.-Reports
that agents of the imperial German
government are using Elm Grove, a
negro settlement near Greensboro, y.
c., as headquarters for a campaign to
incite Southern negroes against the
government of the United States to
day were confirmed by local federal
agents. The alleged activities, ac-
cording to the officials here. have eX-
tended to the tobacco and cotton belts
of Georgia, Alabama, the Carolinas
and parts of Florida. These efforts,
however, have met with little SYM
pathy among the negroes. who have
pledged themselves in large numbers
to support the president and render
whatever service they could to the
nation in case of war.
The alleged work of the Germans
in the South is believed by the fed
eral agents to be closely allied to the

ku Klux klans.
Rumors have reached here that
farmers in some agricultural districts
have formed Ku Klux Klans to meet
possible uprisings or disaffection, but
these have not been confirmed by fed
eral authorities here.
Government agents declared today
that information reaching them led
to the belief that in the event of war
with Germany is declared efforts will
be made by German agents to induce
negroes to migrate to Mexico with
view to crippling industries in the
South which depend on negro labor.
At the United States marshals Of
fee in Jacksonville, Fla, today it was
admitted that a close watch is being
maintained by federal officers for pos
sible efforts of German agents to in
cite the negroes. Reports reaching
there, it was said, indicate that such
efforts have met with no success.
