A SPEECH OF Mr.. LINCOLN

battle OF GetfuSbWg..
A SPEECH OF Mr.. LINCOLN
The President took occasion to make
some remarks on the political lmpor-
lance OF the Fourth of July, and told
his hearers especially that we are
fighting n gigantic rebellion the pur-
pose Of which is 20 overthrow the prln.
ciple that all men are created equal.
We don't want to take TO account
Mr.. Lincoln for his anti-slavery opln-
|, ion, in any way, because 10 have IT is
his right just ss well as that OF any
other man. But we must censure the
President because he did not remember
on so solemn an occasion, any other
sentence of the Declaration Of indie
pendence but that which can refer eX-
clusively to the equalization OF the
negro and the white citizen proposed
nv his marty, unless Mr.. Lincoln can
nroye that JEFF Davis aims AT making
himself King of the United States.
Why did the President not add tnat
the free-born people are endowed WIN
the inalienable rights of life, Liberty
and the pursuit Of happiness? II MI
Lincoln would have quoted the whole
sentence he might, perhaps, nave re-
membered that, during his admnlstra-
ton. he repeatedly and seriously SIN
ned against the far more important
passage Of the Declaration OF Inoe-
pendence.
Mr.. Lincoln and the two secretaries,
to whom, besides him, was the sere-
made intended. have, at times, basely
trifed with life, liberty and the hap
piness of the people, and they must
do much. very much, for this people.
for the white citizens Of this country, If
they want to put in oblivion the mis-
deed they have committed.
But Mr.. Lincoln does not show any
thing like this; for, absolutely for
getting and disregarding the Constr
tuition Of the United States, which
recognizes a difference in the political
and social standing Of white and col
ored men, he only surprises US by the
new paradox that the rebellion has
sprung from the overthrow Of the prin-
ciple Of equality. 1t is just as If we
we're expected to believe that the
rebels fight for the introduction Of ne
gro slavery. and the people of the
! United States don't aim at anything
else but TO destroy that institution.
If Mr.. Lincoln's speech amounts to
more than carelessly uttered words, ne
announces that the latest successes OF
the Union armies will not lead TO the
/ prosecution of a constitutional Union
! list policy, but to the continuation OF
| the destructive policy of the radicals
If this apprehension should be full
| filled, Mr.. Lincoln will have more than
one chance to publicly express "his
confidence that the rebellion will soon
be crushed" without this much de
] sired wish being realized.

honest little chap-maybe even very
honest little chap. Then one day he
needed a stamp for a personal letter

To himself he said: Pooh! What's n

soul that stamp was tiny seed OF

easy it is IF only you can get away
with it,"
When a youngster like that starts
out on a career of dishonesty he does
not dream that 1t is a career of dis
honesty" He either tells himself
that he has a right to little things
and wouldn't take anything big, any
way. or he explains to himself that
everybody does such things, so it
must be all right; or he promises
himself that he's just borrowing and
will put il back as soon as gets a
chance. And the path to that thousand
dollar theft and prison is a plainly
blazed trail.

Bones of Goats Used to
Make Wounded Sound

An Atlantic Port, Aug. S.-Major
]. e. Goldthwait. a reserve officer in
the United States medical corps, ar
rived at an Atlantic port on British
ship. He told of the miracles that
are being worked in bone surgery in
English hospitals saying:
They graft bones from goats into
human limbs. They can take a rib
from a man and use it to replace a
crushed bone in his arm. Patients
who is eralier times would have been
considered permanently disabled are
now fixed up in a few weeks so that
they can go back to the front. In a
single month in one hospital, we had
1850 bones cases, and 1000 of them
were ready at the end of the month
to go back and fight again"
Major Goldthwait is a bone
specialist and he took twenty Ameri-
can surgeons to England to study the
work there. He has now come back
to train other surgeons in the work
ing of modern miracles.

Alkali In Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very care
fully. if you want to keep your hair
looking its best. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alkai. This dries the scalp, makes
the hair brittle. and ruins it,
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), and
is better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair
with water and rub it in. 1t makes
an abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
Avery particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
md excessive oil The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap,
and a few ounces will supply every
member of the family for months.

hand. 1t was the gift of a jeweler
whom she managed to interest in the
cause she was representing. The
jeweler was impressed by her interest
in the cause-so were the workers for
the cause.
The ring and her beauty were there
to impress every onlooker. She had
no trouble in selling chances at so
cents a share. Just before the ba-
zaar was over. she disappeared with
the ring and $500 which she had col
lected. I suppose she will appear
again at some bazaar for the Allies
in another city and will again enrich
herself by her shameful abuse of the
sympathy we all feel for suffering
Europe.
Do you suppose for one minute that
that good looking, well-bred, sweet
voiced and seemingly refined and
charming young woman started out
in life definitely to be what she is
a thief? There is hardly a chance
that she did. Probably she stole
cookies from the cookie jar in her
childhood. Perhaps she pried pennies
out of her little sisters bank; maybe
she got into the way of lying to her
father or husband about the cost of
her clothes, or drifted into padding
an expense account. What she stole
from others was bad enough.
That she stole from herself was
actually tragic. 1t was her sense OF
honesty. She killed her own fine
ness and destroyed her sense of pro-
portion and decency and fair play.
Her career is not over yet. but II
leads straight to absolute destruc-
tion unless she kills all the shoots
of dishonesty which are strangling
the good in her garden of life.
Honesty is instinct plus habit
habits silence the instinct; right ones
can wake 1t again!
