SPLITTING WITH THE
 ARMENIANS.

At the Thanksgiving service at the tabernacle Thursday evening, the audi ence was told that sacrifices should be made, emphasis was laid on the joy of giving, and an appeal made in be- half of millions of starving children, especially those of Armenia. The peo- pie are informed by spoken and print ed words that "1O cents will give a starving child one days life."
 A native Armenian, minister of the Gospel, is making a tour of the states, describing the pitiable plight of his people, in the hope of awakening Americans to the point of contribu- ting to the life of the victims. His expenses are borne by his California congregation. He will speak. at the tabernacle here Tuesday night. An admission fee of 25 cents will be charged, and reports indicate that the lecture is we'll worth the price. According to the present plans, 5O cents of every $l taken in will go to the Armenian sufferers, the other 50 cents to a fund to liquidate a debt on the tabernacle.
 "Ten cents will give starving child one days life."
 Do the Pine Bluff people who built the tabernacle and who eventually will pay for it, desire to raise money for the debt at such cost in life? The Graphic thinks otherwise. The Ora phic subscribes to and believe that the people subscribe to the sentiment expressed by Mrs. Ernestine B. Nor- ris in a letter printed in yesterdays Commercial:
 "Our tabernacle is a splendid thing and fills long felt need, but God forbid that we should use the gaunt faces of 100000 Armenian children huddled together fin pitiful want, as a wedge to pry open our hearts and purses for funds to pay purely local debt."

Minnows Arc Good to Eat.

A correspondent asks-Are the little fishes called minnows good to eat?-- We do not know of any reason why they should not be edible. They are of cleanly habits, free from impuri ties, and though small, quite meaty. Old Izaak Walton in hls Angler de. scribes the ninnows and says: "1n the spring they make of them excellent minnow tansies for being washed well in salt, and their heads and tails cut off, and their guts taken out, and not washed after, they prove excellent for that use, that is being fried with yolks of eggs. The flowers of cowslips and of primroses and little tansy thus used, they make dainty bit of meat" The popular English dish of whitebait is much like minnows, but its edibility all depends on it's preparation and man. ner of cooking. The minnow should not be despised as an article of fooI merely because it is so small. What 1zaak Walton called a tansy was an 0ld-fashioned name of little stew, or meat pie.-Exchayge-

We have gone thru several campaigns of cOllection-the procur' ing of money for variety of good wan causes. And if there is one thing clear about all others it is the fact that collections are easiest and amount to the most in precisely those districts where the local organization k best.
 What amounts to q house-to-housc canvass for funds requires a highly specialized system and thus procur. ing pledges generally does the busi- ness."
 Some districts arc poo,!y organ ized. There is no aggressive central committee of willing workers; there is lack of enthusiasm, a lassitude that finds expression in the phrase, Let George do it." It is in these sections that collections for the Lib crty Bonds, the Red Cross and the Y. M. c. A. were below par.
 Districts that are we'll organized should lend a helping hand to those that need organization. Tbis would be a splendid move to help the gov. ernment.

Duty of Happiness.

Keeping oneself reasonably happy Is a duty that ought not to be shirked. Science is telling us these days that to get out of the habit of enjoyment is to get depressed in vitality and vig0r, to weaken in efficiency, ana to grow old before ones time. There is notl:' ing like taug.iter-not empty-headed laughter, but the intelligent, whole some, kindly hearted kind-to keep people young and fresh and fit for business and the obligations of living. Of course, this Is a prescription not easy to live up to always, but there is no reasonable excuse for not trying to do it. Sometimes it is just about as easy to be happy as to be miserable # one makes up his mind to it, and there is no doubt at all ss to which pays the best Onward.

President Wilson pronounces !; "can'-t-n-m'nt, with the accent on the first syllable.
 Professor Hunt of Princeton in tones it "can-tOn-ment."
 The President has the latest revi- sions of the Century, Webster's, Wor- cester's and the Standard dictionaries on his side and pr. Hunt has Sir James Murray's new English and dictionaries to back him up.
 There seems to be no dictionary at all giving it as "Can-tone-ment." At this distance it looks as if the President is right.

The mullen has had many uses. Tha Romans dipped the stalk into tallow and used it as funeral torch. In the middle ages it WAS used as a candle wick by many people. It is reputed to have medicina; virtues for both man and beast, smoking dry mullen leaves and drinking mullen tea being resorted to by those having colds. It won, in England. by reason of it's rep utatiOn as a healer of cattle diseases, the name of "bullock's lungwort."

BIG CITIES GONE DRY.

Los Angeles is claiming to be the largest dry city in the United States when the law it votes recently ere ated goes into effect April 1, 1918.
 This is evidently an error, for on the same date Michigan will go dry and with Detroit, which will then be the largest dry city in the country.
 The following day Indiana will go dry, putting another large city, Indianapolis, on the water wagon. On April ?, 1918, the six largest dry cities will be Detroit, Los Angeles, Denver, Indianapolis, Des Moines and Atlanta.

 To XIII the Cockroach.

The daily use of rosemary or citronel. la, eucalyptus. wood naphtha, creosote placed near the haunts of cockroaches for two or three weeks is believed to effectively disperse them. If the odor of these is distasteful, an odorless dusting powder may be used. Of these sodium fluoride has been found to be most effective; 1t is cheap and 1t keeps for a long time.

In the Woman's Home Companion Arnold Bennett has an interesting ar- ticle to prove that the dull man is a bad man. Among other indictments ue makes the following: "The dull man has no imagination. He does not possess the faculty of putting himself Tn the other mans place. Therefore he Is certain to blunder, to be unjust and to be cruel. He cannot be charit. able"
