vacant lot with its tin cans and de-
caving weeds, or undrained portions,
lurking place for flies, and mosqul-
toes, or the open bitches of stagnant
water, these things should be reme-
died and that quite speedily. The
time when a town or city begins to
progress, to open up new business
enterprises, to attract desirable in
habitants can always be traced back
to the time when that town woke up
to the fact that in order to grow,
town must be clean and healthy.
A brighter day is dawning for
health and Righteousness for the
highest forces. the school, the press,
and the pulpit are all cooperating to
make the people see that sanitation,
cleanliness and public health are the
greatest factors in making the tu-
ture of our State and community a
bright one.
Let us each pay our debt to our
families, our neighbors and our town
by making and keeping our premises
so clean and inviting that no germ
or harmful pest will be tempted to
abide in our midst.

OUR NEW ISLANDS.
Danish West Indies as They
are Today.

The islands have combined area
of 1873 square miles, with popula-
ton of about thirty thousand, writes
the Eldred E. Jacobsen, in the
American Review of Reviews. Like
all of the West Indian Islands, they
are nothing if not picturesque. St.
Cork, the largest, contains eighty
four square miles, with a population
of $4,000; it is about twenty miles
long and from four to five miles wide.
A ridge of mountains runs parallel
with the coast along the western end
of the island, Mount Eagle, the
highest point, being 1,164 feet above
sea level. Even in such limited
tropical area, a Diversity of climate
and plant life exists as caused the
island to be known years ago as the
Garden of the West indies The
atmosphere of the island is rather
more American than any part of the
West Indies, including Porto Rico,
after years of American possession,
for not only has the principal
communication been with the United
States, but in years gone by the
+ island was a Mecca for American
tourists. Today 80 per cent. of the
exports and imports are with this
country, and the number of natives
who have emigrated to the Land OF
Hope as they term the United
States, has created feeling of
affection for this country.

Do we pray Thy Kingdom Come
with our lips while our hearts and
minds are needless, unmindful that
we must each not only pray, but help
to hasten the coming of Gods king
dom? We are promised that when
Christ shall reign on earth there
shall be no sickness and sorrow, no
germs and diseases. Are we doing
our part individually to rid the earth
of these scourges and bring about
this glad day?
In this day of enlightenment we
have come to see that we as indlvid-
uals owe a debt to our State and COM
munity in making our own bodies
Just as strong and free from disease
as is possible, Upon the health of a
people is based the prosperity of a
town or city. Every individual gain
increases public gain and the individ-
ual cannot accomplish anything
worth while if sick and diseased.
God expects us to rise to the loftlest
heights but we cannot be at our best
if thwarted by i'll health. 1t has been
said that I'VE are built for cleanll-
ness, for purity, for Righteousness and
to be at our best we must be in har-
mony with the best, the highest thing
in us
Not only do we fail in our duty to
ourselves when We do not obey sanl-
tary laws but we fail to live up TO
our responsibility to our fellow man.
What. you say as Cain said of old,
Am | my brothers keeper? Yea,
verify, my neighbors premises might
be spotlessly clean and still members
of his family be stricken with a dead
| lv disease carried by flies or mosqul-
toes breeding in cesspools and places
of filth in my back yard. A single
| child with an infectious disease in a
! public school can endanger the lives
of the entire school. No, indeed, |
must not neglect my home for the
sake of my neighbor's health as well
as for that of my own family. And
it is just as true that the city owes
a debt to it's citizens in the enact
ment and enforcement Of sanitary
laws. The board Of health and town
council have no right to allow the
health of hundreds to be endangered
Just because some folks are too care
less or too ignorant to observe the
laws of sanitation. Wherever a men'
ace to public health be found, wheth'
er it be the cesspools and vile odors
from the rear of some place of busi,
ness, or some back yard, the unkept

MILLINERY
DEPART MENT

Notwithstanding the fact that
we had an enormous stock to open
the season with, we have very few
of the Hats to show you that we
were showing during our OPEN
ING days. Immediately we realiz-
ed. even with our tremendous
stock, that the business had sur
passed our anticipations. Miss
Rutledge says she has never seen
anything like it. Recorders were
necessary at once, and now the ad-
ditional goods are here, something
new and different, even from what
we were showing last week. In
addition to these, Miss Rutledge
and her assistant, Miss Ackerman,
have made many new models to
show you since the others have
been sold. 1t matters not what
you need if it's millinery, we have
it,. We invite you to come see.

COTTON MARKETS.

New York. May n.-Prsas dispatches from PstrO-
grad announcing the settlement Of the Russian
cabinet crisis caused active buying and considerable
strength in cotton today. A further rse In secur-
ties also was . factor and confidence was revived
in all quarters. Wall Street seemed 70 be taking
the long side October sold SbsTs the high level Of
April and December also moved into new high
ground for tho season.
July sold back TO yesterdays final price during
the noon hour. Late in the afternoon the market
turned strong the appearance of fairly heavy
Wan Street buying orders and aggressive support
from. several cotton exchange houses. The demand
as lad been the case earlier in the session, vas
principally for the new crop October selling 10
within 70 points Of July. The boom in the stock
market vas responsible for much Of the demand
for cotton contracts. Shorts who had sold on
tho fine weather had considerable trouble in buying
beck their cotton the rise q Is to . points
which was scorsd befOre o'clock
The volume oS buying orders reaching the market
in the las hour steadily increased promoting q
violent further advance which not checked
until crop positions had sold up a full u cent.
Short covering was heavy from Wall Street and
Western sources based reports that the Russian
internal crisis had passed Several big spot firms
also Were large buyers the late rise
Port receipts for the day were 1881 bales, COM

Steel Leads Market-Russia and Pro
essional Pool Dominate Trading.
(by do Internatlonal NevEE serviee.)

CBy the International News seryiee.)
New York, May n.-Russia and a pool
of professional traders dominated the
stock market today. The combination
was NOR than the public could resist and
n addition to the short covering there
was little public buying and great
deal OF public withdrawal from the selling
side OF the market Gains made today
were important Steel was Of course the
leader
There was additional reason today for
being hopeful about stocks because II
was known in Washington that in addi-
don to having expert business men in
sonferece with the government such men
are to be placed in actual control OF the
various branches of business that will be
touched BY military purchases. Appoint
ment Of John d. Ryan, OF the Anaconda
Company to have charge OF copper for
the government was proof that the gov
ernment is doing this.
Bankers are friendly to the market
provided the professionals will take the
lead IN H. They think rising market
win help distribute the liberty bonds.
Wheat was lower again. but cotton
went higher for the grain SPECTATORS had
gone into cotton and not into stocks
~ Wall Street had hoped they would do.
steel products today reached the new
high record price of $3.50 a ton which
compares with $3.50 a month ago.

Trading was restricted at yesterdays

change. Potomac Consolidated IS sold at

small Graphophone changed hands at
100 and Washington Railway and Electric
tirst Is sold to the extent Of 5000 at rs 81
Ten shares of Railway common changed
hands at Y and n.
The upward trend OF Lanston is at
tributed by many to the fact that the
corporation recently received a large war
order from the American government At
the outbreak of the war the company
received a number OF orders from Great
Britain. AS the factories are equipped
Tor the manufacture of rifle breech blocks
and similar pieces of mechanism, the
company Is in a position to handle large
contracts. Only recently the stock was
begging on the market under 20. Now
II is selling at 70.
The steel companies are suffering from
a surplus OF business and to aggravate
their position the yards of many mills
are so choked with finished goods that
operations are being interfered with.
Several weeks ago 1t was learned that
one plant Of the United States Steel
Corporation had fully 10000 tons Of goods
piled up waiting for cars, and the situa-
don has not improved since.
More finished steel is moving to con-
sumers than In February and March, but
the check upon the outflow during the
winter has by no means been overcome.
AT time when the shipyards are howl
Ing for more and more plates the con-
gestion at the mills is a matter OF serious
consideration to the government as well
as to private manufacturers. It is expect
ed in steel making circles that particular
enorts Will be made from now on, with
the help Of good weather. to stimulate the
movement OF government STEEL
Canadian railroads are reported in the
American market for thousands OF tons
of rails, which the inquirers would Ike
to have delivered with the greatest dis
patch possible. The unusual feature of
this buying Is that, in part, II is stinnu-
lated by the fact that. Canadian roads
have suffered from the removal of old
rails from the tracks for hurried ship
mems TO the battle fields Of France II
is estimated that fully 600 miles of tracks
across the border have been torn up to
supply the urgent needs Of the army
transportation system in Europe. To a
lesser extent the market in this country
has been drawn upon for old rails for
military railroads.
