CONQUEST AND KULTUR

From all this it appears that
the Monroe doctrine cannot be
justified SO 1t remains
only what we Europeans have
described as an inspiration. And
so it remains only what we Eu-
ropeans almost universally con-
slider it, an impertinence. With
noisy cry they try to make an
impression on the world and
succeed, especially with the stu
pid. The inviolability of the
American soil is invoked with
out there being at hand the
slightest means of wurding Off
the attack OF a respectable Eu-
ropean power.-Johannes Vol

Treasures From Europe.

Some of the salvaged treasures of
battle-torn Europe are commencing to
find their way into the Metropolitan
Museum of Art In New York, and
some priceless impOrtations have been
unveiled that would have been mac
cessible two vars ago. The new ac-
QUESTIONS consist Of a group Of two
complete windows and four circular
medalJions, all from designs of one
artist, made at one period, for one
abbey church, ami that abbey situated
only 20 miles from what is today the
battle line between France and her
enemies, within sound of the cannon
of st. Mihiel and Verdun. The win
dOws are typical and excellent exam
pies of the art of glass-making as
practiced in France during the early
and best phase of the Northern renais-
sance. The first home of these win
dOws was the Abbey of Flavlgny, near
Nancy, Toul and Luneville. OF the
two complete windows one illustrates
the Deluge, the other Moses and the
Law. The other two windows show
Moses presenting the tablets of the
Law to the Hebrews.

Tn. Ministry Of New,papsrs.

It Is by the ministry Of the news
papers that the nation Is united, In
formed, summoned, and led.
SO many people take the newspaper
for granted, they never think what the
sheet is doing for them, or for the
land we love. The universally Of the
newspaper is the sign Of Its vast util-
ity. The development does not rest
merely on n craving for the distrac-
ton of news; 1t is less so now than
ever, though the news today is beyond
anything in the history of the world.
At the bottom, the craving is the
will to live in realities. That Is why
newspapers should be clean, never
playing a mere game. II we do not live
now in the realities, we may never re-
cover our hold of them. No matter
what bread costs. we must know lit
tie of where the world is.-Methodist

Margaret Ellis.

head. 81 want the man | marry to be

Grandmother Ellis looked up from
her crochet. A quizzlcal look crept
into her gray eyes as they rested on
Vivian's attractive face. Then she
folded her capable hands in her lap
and said:
"Can you cook, vivianT
"Why, yes, a little. can make
mayonnaise, cake and-and fudge"
she answered, looking puzzled over
the seeming irrelevancy Of the ques-

She gazed out of the window for
minute, and when she looked back
her eyes were very kind.
Eyes, my dear, you expect to marry
someone who has used his time well
in making a successful man Of him
self. He must be so well trained that
he will make no mistakes that might
cause you discomfort or unhappiness.
He must stand the strain of the long
days, and the responsibility not only
of his work but of his own family
and then be entertaining.
IL wonder often whether women
realize just what that means. You,
on the contrary, know nothing of your
business Of being a wife. You enter
on the biggest Job in life without
training. You will learn in time, per-
haps, but at the expense of his COM
fort and your own. The petted doll

tears and regret. Do you think it is
quite fair to ask so much and give so
little?"
AS Grandmother Ellis talked a flush

of sense lay behind her beauty. She
drew long breath.
"Thank you, Mrs. Ellis" she said.

Acres of Coal kfloat.

Only in the United States can such
n sight be seen as six acres of coal
floating down a river as single unit.
This is the area of coal boats the
stern-wheel steamer SprSgue is capa-
bic Of handling as a single tow. Four
across-strenm rows of - boats each
make up the principal part, according
10 the Popular Science Monthly. Back
Of the fourth row, however, eight boats
find places together with two barges.
Hence there are 90 boats and two
barges in the big fleet. The Sprague
has her nose showed in ut the center
Of the fifth row. The 80 vessels are
dashed securely together by lines which
ron from boat TO boat Although the
Sprague can push the feet ahead, her
chief duty is to hold back the load.
This great amount of coal is handled
by a relatively small total of horse
power because the current Of the on
flowing river supplies a large part Of
the requisite energy.

Spinach Good Garden Crop.

There is, perhaps, no other garden
crop which gives as much satisfaction
as spinach. Ordinarily 1t occupies the
land during the autumn and winter
and does not interfere, therefore, with
the production of summer vegetables.
Three or four ounces Of seed planted
in the autumn after the summer crop
has been harvested will produce an
abundance of greens for the average
family during the late autumn and
early spring. In gathering spinach the
entire plant is removed instead Of
merely cutting Off the leaves. BY Sc
lecting the larger plants first, the
smaller or later ones are given room
to develop. This method does away
with the necessity OF thinning.

neighhor. William Giles, colored, was
arrested at the point of a revolver by
Officer Rasmus Peterson last even

the officer appeared but it was thought
would feature the arrest.
Fires Two Shots.
Giles fired two shots at his wife, 1t
Is said, one taking effect in the wom-
ans left hand. the bullet running up
her forearm and lodging in the flesh
near the elbow. The fight started at
the Giles shack on the corner of Sher-
bert street and Worden avenue when
Giles came home. as he says. and
found his wife in company with a
character known as "Dirty Jack" An
other story is that Giles demanded
beer or money for beer. and his wife
refused to let him have any.

were fighting in the open and Peder-

woman was taken to St Patrick's hos
pital for treatment. Giles is being held
