NERVE OF A STEEPLEJACK.
His Goodness and Resource In a Time
 of Extreme POril.

of Extreme Poril.
 Ordinary people standing on a mar row ledge whence they can see down 200 or 800 feet are so appalled, by the danger of falling that their nerves give way, their bodies finch and there comes to some at least an impulse to end the mental strain by a leap into the gulf. But the steeplejack Is indR- ferent to height and proximity to the abyss.
 The coolness and resource of these men were never better shown than in case which happened in upper New York state few years ago. A steeple- jack had flown his kite over chimney and subsequently drawn himself up to the top. He was just beginning his h. speCtiOn of the work when by some mishap he dropped his rope and was left, like St. Simeon StylItes, alone on his pillar.
 Attempts were made to fly another kite over him, but the wind had drop ped. There were iron ladders inside the chimney, but the fires would have to be drawn and the chimney let cool for hours.
 The steeplejack was then seen to un- lace one of his shoes, take of the long blue stocking worn by such workmen and set to work carefully to unravel 1t, knotting the pieces of yarn together when necessary.
 He then fastened stone to the end, plumbed the depth, picked the other stocking to pieces and added 1t to the first length of yarn and let 1t down far enough to meet a tall ladder, from which he drew up first a piece of strong string, next a rope and then after completing his inspection of the chimney top lowered himself to the ground-Los Angeles Times.

POWER OF FROST.
Fall of Fifty Ton sowider of Granite
 In the Yosemite.

Fall of FifSy Ton 5oWineT or SrahIp9
 In the Yosemite. Delicate frost tracings on the win dowpanes seem to be the work of fan ciful and harmless sportlyeness, but the hand that forms them is capable of greater deeds and other kinds.
 An official of the geological survey tells of an experience that must have been wonderfully impressive to the spectator. He had been spending some weeks In exploring the Yosemite valley and the great rocks" like El Capitan, that wall 1t in.
 Standing one day of late autumn about the middle of the valley, he was startled by a report like a cannon shot, which filled the whole valley with echoes that roared and boomed, re- piled and multiplied, in long continu- ed, glorious tumult.
 As the deafening sound died away in sullen mutterings under the visor of El Capitan the spectator was able to dis tinguish the point of attack by the long, clattering descent of a vast quantity of rock.
 The night had been cold one in the valley, and on the 1000 and 5000 foot levels of the upper rim the temperature must have dropped almost to zero.
 Frost, working quietly with his Archi- medean lever, had just succeeded in shifting from the shoulder of the senti- nel trife of fifty tons or so of granite. For near thousand feet the powder fell sheer, swift and silent; then, strik- Ing the cliff, 1t burst like bomb, shat tered into myriad flying shRrds and spllnters and dislodged a smother of fragments that trickled down to the valley in a stream that lasted for min utes.
 Then from the spot where the bowld- CT had struck dust began to rise into the sunny air, slowly building up like a summer cloud and every bit as snowy. It was the flour of granite, powdered instantaneously by the terrific shock.

Oriain of an Old Saying.

Many think that the saying Blood is thicker than water" originated with Commodore Tatnall of the United States navy, who assisted the English in the Chinese waters, and, in his dis patch to his government, justified his interference by quoting the words. It is, however, an old English proverb and is to be found in Rays Collection of English Proverbs" published In 1872. Walter Scott, too, makes Dandie Din mont say: "Weel, 'bluid's thicker than water She's welcome to the cheeses and the hams, just the same."-Phila- delphia Press.

A man once called upon Whistler with a letter of introduction, and an amusing scene followed arising out Of the fact that the visitor was wearing red necktie. Whistler declared 1t in- terfered with the color scheme of his room and put him of7' a picture he was painting in quite a different "key." Finally he obliged him to take of the offending cravat before he would con descend to exchange another word with him.

IRE GCl OF TIE YOUNGER GENE
RATION

In his latest novel, Mr. H. g. Wells
that incislve saver Of so many true
things has this word: The last act
Of faith is to trust those we love to
Goo ="
How true this is! How often our
parent instinct betrays US! How hard
It is to realize that after a time we are
no longer our otfspring's keepers and
they are no longer our wards; they have
grown to ne individuals, souls, fIeemen
Of the earth. even as we are.
We would shield them from the
storm. We would shield them from
the hazardous path Of doubt-wc who
have won every atom Of our faith
IN wrestlings with doubt. We would
keep them out Of temptation-we who
have won the right to call our virtue
Virtue because we have met tempta-
ton face to face and tried our fortunes
with it. We would keep them from
want-we who know what it is to be-
gia very low on the ladder, we who
know that poverty is kindly friend
when we ourselves are not sordld. An,
and we would keep their bodies safe,
just as we used to keep their baby
limbs safe and shield them from every
danger-we who eXtol courage and
bravery, and sing hymns to sacrifice,
and name reverently the men who
thought that life was not too great
price to pay for principle.
Yes, we believe in God-but if it is
all the same to Him. we would prefer
to be our children's guardian. We
would have them safe at home with US,
rather than on the seas with God. Is
it not so? We know it to be so; you
know it to be so. The parent is jealous
even of God where the child is con-
corded.
We believe in God. We believe in
as much of God as we can-and some
times that portion of God we claim,
though any portion is very great, is
small when compared with the whole
ness of God
Did you ever think of the God you
believe in? Think of your favorite
name for Him. God of orr fathers"
is it not?-a dear name, betokening the
faithfulness of God through the gene
rations of the past the God of Abraham
and Moses and Isaiah; the God of Jesus,
Paul and Peter; the God of Washington
and Lincoln" God of our fathers"
Our faith in Gods guidance in the
past is very clear, for we can see the
past. Yes, we say to ourselves, the
Eternal One did well in the past with
such material as men allowed Him to
have.
And our faith IN His continuity is
very clear-"the same Yesterday, to-
day and forever" Forever" is a
long, long word. We would we might
substitute for it something within the
reach Of our own minds "the same
yesterday, today, tomorrow, through
the years of this war, through the gen.
erations of peace that are to follow.F

FOR THE SECOND
LIBERTY LOAN
McAdOO Announces His Plans for
The Campaign October

Money from the bonds of the second
liberty loan of 1917 must be on its way
to the United States Treasury by No
vember l. To make certain funds are
on their way at that date, Secretly Nc
Adoo. Friday fixed October l as the
latest possible starting date for the
new liberty loan campaign.
Work will begin as soon as Congress
has passed the ST, 538. OOo, OO0 bond and
certificate Dill, to be reported in the
House today. The Treasury Depart
ment, in the hope that the legislation
may he enacted before October l, is al
ready preparing for the campaign.
Secretary McAdoo Yesterday urged all
liberty loan committees to get ready,
and asked for the formation of new
committees wherever possible.
The amount, the interest rate, the
denominations Of the bonds and other
details will be announced after Con
g.sss disposes Of the pending bond bill.
Indications are that the next offering
will approximate 50, coo, 600.
Whether it will be advertised by the
government through paid newspaper
space is under consideration, but Sec
rotary McAdoo said last night the cost
of such an undertaking would exceed
the appropriation now available for the
purpose.
He added that there could be no ac-
ton until more light had been received
as to the cost Of an effective advertis
ing campaign and until Congress had
decided what amount will be allowed
for advertising for future issues.
Under the war revenue bill passed
last April 81, coo, 600 was made available
for expenses of floating S., 900, 900, 900
in bonds and $1,000. 100000 in short
time certificates of indebtedness. 1t is
reported that about half already has
been disbursed in connection with the
fiotation of the 1000, 900, 600 liberty
bonds first offered and the certificates
of indebtedness put out in advance of
the loan.
In announcing the tentative program
for the second campaign Mr.. McAdoo
appealed to liberty loan committees to
perfect organizations and prepare for
the next campaign by getting in touch
with the various Federal reserve banks.
The Secretary's statement regarding
newspaper advertising, said:
There seems to be an impression
that the Treasury Department in the
first liberty loan campaign applied for
free advertising, or paid for advertis-
ing in some papers and not in others.
That is entirely erroneous. The Treas
ury Department did not ask news
paper publishers for free advertising
because l realize that the newspaper"
only profitable commodity is advertis-
ing space and that there are many
papers which are not able to give free
advertising, especially IN view of the
high cost of printing paper.
Newspapers and press associations
Loyalty co-operated with the govern
ment in the first liberty loan. News
and editorial columns were devoted
most generously to the issue. They
carried its message into every home,
and deserve great praise for their SER
