THE sTAR-sPANGLED BANNER

Oh! say, you by the dawns early light
What proudly haid the tw1ights cleaning
Whose stripes and bright stars hro the perlous fight
Ger the ramparts watchd, calamity streaming;
And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air.
Gave proof thro the night that flag still there
y say does that starspangled banner yet
y er the land of the free and the home of the brave
On the shore dimly thro' the mist of the deep
Where the foes naughty host in dread silence reposes
What IS that which the breeze DER the towering steep,
AS 1t htfully blows half concea1s, half discloses?
Now it catches the CLEAN of the mornings first beam.
In full glory reflected, now shines in the stream
lis the star-spangled banner OH long may it wave
Ger the land of the free and the home of the brave
And where is that band who vaunting1y swore
Mid the havoc of and the battles confusion
home and country they'd leave more
Their blood has washed their foul footsteps pollution
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight the gloom of the grave
And the star spanged banner in triumph shall wave
Ger the land of the free and the home of the brave
Oh! thus be it ever when free shall stand
Between their lovd home and the wars desolation,
Best with vctry and peace may the heav rescued land
Praise the Powr that hath made and preserved nation
Then conquer must when cause it is Just,
And this be MOTTO "In God is trust"
And the arspangled banner in triumph shall wave
While the land of the free is the home of the brave

They Calmly Awaited Death With a
Song Upon Their Lips.

mediately ASSEMBLY" was sounded the
men put ON their lifebelts and stood at
attention till the roll was called. Then
the order "Stand easy" was given, and
they began to sing as fervently as
though marching homeward on leave
through lane Of France or Flanders.
They were perfectly sure that most
of them would find a grave in the sea
that engulfed so many of their fellows.
They had no hope of rescue. They
stood exactly as the men of the Birk-
enhead stood when they went to their
doom and their imperishable renown
off the same coast sixty-f1ve years be-
fore.
But the sequel by a modern miracle
was happily otherwise. Two steamers
summoned by wireless came and towed
to port the laundering vessel. with a
display of seamanship on the part of
the crews of all three ships that has
maintained the British navy's proud
traditions.
The bravery of those who had al
ready given up their lives as lost was
just as sublime as If that ultimate for
felt had been required. Wherever the
deed is known it will stir the pulses of
men, this story of heroism quite as ex-
allied as any that Homer or Plutarch
immortalized.-Ph Ledger.

TRAINING THE CHILD.
The Most Essential Factor lie In Hav
Ing a Normal Home.

The Most Essential Factor Is In Hav-
Ing a Normal Home.
A student of sociology recently said
In a public address that the most es-
sential thing In the training of a child
was a normal home. This sort Of
home ought to be common. Yet inves-
legations show that a large number
Of homes must be considered abnormal.
Such are poverty stricken, overcrowded
homes, and such are the servant filed
homes OF the wealthy. 1t is the large
well to do middle class who should and
who do supply most Of the so called
normal homes.
It has been found that many homes
which might be normal are not so and
that the parents usually are to blame
Parents are quarrelsome, q favored
child Is allowed to bully the household,
the mother Is Indifferent to the home,
the father Is ugly, discipline is too lax,
the children are ignored, parents re-
verse each others decisions-the are
some Of the defects in the abnormal
home. They are defects which are SIN
gled out because they betray no gross
weakness In the parents and could be
eliminated by. a little patience and
thoughtful effort.
The environment Of a child In its
early years undoubtedly has a good
deal to do with forming its character.
1t seems as If parents ought to heed
this fact and to exercise such self de-
NAL and self control as may be neces.
sary to make the home place where
the child can be sure of finding peace
and just treatment. There are many
homes that for familiar reasons are
entirely without the scope Of these con-
siderations.
But the observations noted apply with
reasonable pertinence to the numerous
American homes In which the parents
are well behaved and self respecting,
but who are too selfish or too thought
less to give due attention to the very
important matter Of providing tran
gull and helpful home for the little
ones.-Rochester Democrat and Chron-
icle.

SURGERY FOR AUTO TIRES.
Be Sure There Are No "Broken Bones"
Before Mending the Surface.

Before Mending the Surface.
Surgery for a tire, in so far as it af-
fects only the tread or skin, is simple,
but after rupture of the surface you
should make certain that no bones
have been broken before proceeding
with the treatment. 1t must be re-
membered that the layers of canvas
cemented together-in a fabric tire-or
the individual layers Of cord-in q cord
tire-form the main supporting slxele-
ton, or framework The rubber tread
merely protects this framework from
wear, as the tough skin on the ends of
the fingers protects the bones and deli
cate nerves.
1t often happens that a cut from
sharp stone or piece of glass is suff1-
GENTLY severe to penetrate the entire
thickness Of rubber covering on the
tire and to extend through to one or
two layers Of canvas. If under these
conditions only the surface is vulcan
lied, or healed" but little will be ac-
compnshed, for the supporting fabric
will be weakened at this point through
the separation of the one or two lay
ers, and a blowout will eventually re-
suit, even though the tire, so far as
external appearances are concerned, is
perfect at this point.
A cure of this nature requires the
services Of an experienced tire sur
geon, for new section of fabric must
be applied and vulcanized into place,
or the broken ends of the cord must be
fastened together in a manner requir-
ing more or less expert work.
The same result as a broken bone
may be obtained by what is known In
Theology as stone bruise. This is
caused by sudden impact against a
blunt object, such as curved or round
corner Of a stone, which in itself is not
sufficient actually to cut the thread of
the tire, but which imparts so severe a
strain to the fabric, or carcass, that
several Of the layers Of canvas may
be broken or bruised. This is a fire.
Quent cause of mysterious blowouts,
which seem to come from within tire
having its surface in perfect condition.

Just Got Over

Look out for kidney troubles and
backache. Colds overtax the kidneys
and often leave them weak. For weak
hdneys-well, read what Mount Holly
woman says:
Mrs. Magraret Weldy. 9 Church street,
Mount Holly, gave the following state
ment in November 1914: 81 was trou-
bled great deal with my back and
when l had been on my feet a great
deal or took little cold, it always af-
fected my kidneys. My back would
then bother me more than at any other
time. Doan's Kidney Pills never failed
to relieve me of the misery whenever I
was bothered in that way"
LASTING RESULTS
On October 2, 1916, Mrs. Weldy said.

kidney trouble since last used Doan's

''aaona Liza" 10 No Mystery, According
TO Kenyon Cox.

Wona Lisa" 10 NO mystery, according
20 Kenyon Cox.
Leonardo da Vinci was tireless stu
dent Of all kinds Of natural phenomena
and Of many things he had leaSned 9
great deal that has been redtscovered
only In our own time Among other
things, az his notebooks prove, he had
studied effects Of transmitted and re
6ected light, understood the difference
between diffused daylight and sunlight
with its crisp edged shadows, saw the
blue shadow which has been introduced
into modern painting by the impress
nionists and knew the reason Of It.
He attempted none of these things In
painting. and he tells us why. These
things, he says, after. long descrip
tion Of the effects Of sunlight upon
foliage-of the color of the sky in the
high lights, Of the yellow light where
the sun shines through the leaf and
the interruption Of this light where thf
shadow Of one leaf falls upon another
these things should not be painted
because they confuse the FORM"
The F7orentine ideal in art was the
utmost realization Of form. Leonardo
was true F1orentine, and he intro
duced into painting just so much OF
light and shade as should assist In this
realisation, no more. 1t is his use OF
modelling that Is his most personal con;
tribution to art
Much rhapsodical nonsense has been
written about the "Mona Lisa" and her
enigmatic smile, and there have been
endless speculations as to her charac-
ter and the meaning Of her expression
It 10 all beside the mark. The truth
IN that the Mona Lisa" is a study OF
modelling, little more. Leonardo had
discovered that the expression of smil.
ing is much more a matter of the mod
sling of the cheek and Of the forms
below the eye than of the change In
the line Of the lips. 1t interested him
