PUT YOUR DOLLAR
INTO UNIFORM

The call of the president to
mobilize the sinews Of war is the
real martial trumpeting, but the
soldier is only a cipher without
the dollar back Of him.
Even as another home is asked
to put the stalwart son in uni
form, so your home is asked to
put the dollar in uniform and to
enlist it in the cause Of Liberty.
A dollar volunteered TO Uncle
Sam in the War for democracy
is more shrewdly conceived than
a dollar levied upon defeated
America by a victorious Kaiser.
1t is not necessary that the
Central Powers should actually
oyerrun this country. 1t Will
suffice il they make a separate
peace with disordered Russia,
starve the English with the sub
marine and crush France thus
isolated. Then victorious Ger

and prevent the further crushing

You did not invent this war.
Nevertheless the United States is
in this war up to the neck. There
is no turning back. We must
win OF lose.
However pacific you may be in
principle, however secure you
may feel personally from the for
midable bludgeOn Of the Teutonic
militarists, peace can be achieved
now only in one of two ways-by
winning the war, or by submit

landing of a single Teutonic SOL

SHE WAS KEPT A PRISONER
Woman Tells How Husband Confined
Her to Their Home With the Aid
of a "Horrid Mouse"

A woman called at police station
the other day and complained to a
superintendent that her husband had,
in the most cruel manner, kept her a
prisoner at home for the last ten days.
"Ah," said the superintendent, "dOes
he lock the doors on you?"
Certainly not"
"DOes he have somebody to guard
you and keep you from going out?"
"NO, indeed not he"
swell, does he-does he tie you to
anything?"
"No, sir; he dare not"
"Well, I should say, madam, that
pray excuse me-that you have about
all the freedom you could want"

lady, with clenched fingers and flashing
eyes, ga horrid mouse tied to the tor

FIRM FOUNDATION
Nothing Can Undermine it
in Smyrna.

People are sometimes slow to recog-
nize true merit. and they cannot be
blamed. for so many have been hum
bugged in the past. The experience
of many Smyrna residents, expressed
publicly through newspapers and other
sources, places Doan's Kidney Pills
of firm foundation here.

PROSPEROUS CITY OF EAST
Shechem, or NabIus, as 1t Is Now
Called, Site of Impressive Scenes
in Biblical History.

A prosperous Oriental city nestled
In fertile valley between two noun
tains and surrounded by gardens and
olive groves, Shechem or NabluS, as
1t is now called, occupies the site of
some of the most impressive scenes in
Bible history, says the Christian Her.
aid. Here Abraham pitched his tent
and made the first stopping place in
his migration to the country of which
the Lord said: unto thy seed will
give this land" Here Joseph divided
the Israelites into two hosts, one of
which encamped on the slope of Mount
Ebal on the north and the other on the
slope of Mount Gerizim on the south,
while the Levites read the law Of
Moses which was to be the constitution
Of the infant nation. Shechem seems to
have been & sort of capital FOR the
Hebrew nation even after David had
established his residence at Jerusalem,
as we read in Kings II that all Israel
assembled at Shechem to crown Reho-
bOam. The SeparatiSt elements of the
nation sought to legitimatize their acts
by making Shechem a temporary cap
ital, although the residence of the
northern kings was established at a
point about six miles northwest and
called Samaria.
Shechem is nowhere mentioned by
name in the New Testament, though
either it or suburb appears in John
4 IS under the name of Sychar; and
it was here, at Jacobs well, that the
Samaritan woman met Christ and first
heard the message of his universal gOs-
pei. Jacobs well is still pointed out
and is almost the only undisputed land
mark of our Lords earthly life. The
city now contains about $4,000 inhabit-
ants. Nablus contains a small colony
of about 200 persons, who claim to be
the descendants of the Israelites of
the northern kingdom. They accept
only the five books of Moses as being
of divine authority and hold Mount
Gerizim to be the seat of their reli'
gion, instead of Jerusalem.

To Tell a Fish's Age.

Could you tell the age Of fish if
asked to do so?
1t has been found that the age Of
fish may be read from it's scales.
These increase in size by annular
growths, two rings being formed each
year. The 'otoliths," or ear stones,
which lie in two sacs on either side Of
the base of the cranial cavity, afford
another means of determination.
Like the scales, the Otoliths increase
by two rings annually. Each spring a
white ring is formed, and each autumn
q black one. Thus the number of
either white or black rings in an oto-
lith gives the age of the fish in years.
In the case of fiatfish the latter meth
cd has been found more reliable,
whereas in the case Of the cod the
scales give a better result. Although
varying much in size and shape in diff
ferent species, the otoliths show a re-
markable constancy in the same spe-
cies; hence they are of considerable
value in the diagnosis of species.

ART OF ANCIENT CRETANS
Il Was Very Different From That of
Early Egyptian Times, Says
Writer in Century.

"There could hardly be a stronger
contrast than that between the con-
tempOraneOus arts of Crete and Egypt,
for it is a contrast in fundamental as
well as in superficial qualities. Cretan
art is not monumental; it is an art of
small things-of things so often small
in idea as well as in material scale,
that genre is the term that best de-
ScribeS them. Again, in its most char
acteristic phases, Cretan art is not
cOnventiOnalized, but is singularly un-
trammeled, naturalistic. And it's spirit,
its aims, its themes, are not grave and
religious, but secular and animated,
writes Mrs. Schuyler Van Rensselaer, in
the Century.
"In Crete there were no great tenn
pies, but closely built towns and wide
ly extended, tall palaces of innumer.
able rooms, passages, and courts.
There were no great stone cOlOnnades
or Sculptured walls. The few stone
columns that remain, with indications
that there were many more of wood,
are poor and plain in form. Generally
the walls were plaStered and painted,
and often the paintings with human
figures were very small in scale. In
no material did the Cretans attempt
large works of sculpture in the round,
nor, despite their naturalistic tenden-
cies, did they practice that art of por-
traiture wherein Egypt excelled. On
the other hand, we marvel at their skill
when we look at their small figures
and reliefs, sometimes of stone, more
often of ivory, metal, or pottery, at
their engraved gems, and their inlays,
exquisitely wrought with crystal, ivory,
cOlored paste, and the precious metals.
We know from Mycenae what the
Egean goldsmith could do, and there is
proof that he did as well in the mother
island at a much earlier time. In deco
rated pottery the Cretan did much bet
ter than the Egyptian, and almost the
only things that he seems to have
cared to make impressive by reason of
their size are his jars of pottery and
Stone."

Old Laws, Modern Conditions.

New England, with its recOllections
Of ancient "blue laws" should be in
terested in the report that wartime
England has seen fit to revive statute
Of Charles rs time prohibiting the
transaction Of business on the Sabbath,
says the Springfield (Mass) Repub-
lican. AS there is a shortage of labor,
with the consequence that shop people
are OverwOrked, the need of providing
a day of rest is acute, and numerous
shopkeepers have been arrested for do
ing business on Sunday. The English
authorities are very ingenious in dig
ging UP ancient statutes to fit some
new and unforeseen situation.
