Crusaders Doctrine

There Is an old story of the Method.
lst chaplain of an Ohio regiment in
he Civil war who was accounted n
deadly rifle shot, and who gloried In
his proWess. The men who fought be-
hind him told that, after he had pulled
The trigger, he always muttered while
'eloading, "Nfay the Lord have mercy
IN your soul" A chaplain such as he
must necessarily have deserved the re-
ipect of those to whose spiritual needs
he minlstered. One cannot question
hat he was popular with his fellows.
Now comes an Indiana chaplain
with his bid for fame. 81 won't force
religion on my boys when we get to
France" he said when he was sworn
n. ITS all up to them. If they can
light Germans and get away with 1t,
hat will cover multitude of sins"
Here is the church militant with q
'engeance.
There is no doctrine older than hat
preached by this Indiana clergyman.
Save for his modern turn of speech
he words might have come from the
ips of Peter the Hermit or Bernar.! Of

ALL IN THE WAY YOU SEE IT
Attitude Which Makes the Worst OF a
Situation Always Makes a Fail.
ure Of 1t, Says Writer.

Any attitude which makes the worst
Of the situation makes failure of 1t.
Concentrating your mind on the hurt
Of headache or the pain of cut, fair
ly makes either one throb to order.
Agltating yourself over how you are
going to meet the payments on your
talking machine takes all the music
out of every record 1t plays, writes an
optlmlst.
If you must have your appendix re-
moved next Saturday, why fill the days
between now and Saturday with dis
NAL forebodings Of how you are going
to feel when you wake up from the
ether sleep? You will have to have
the operation performed, anyway, and
you might as well come to 1t with as
much reserve strength and buoyancy
as possible.
A glad heart goes the whole day long
and a sad one tires in mile, as has
been told with poetic fervor. But that
does not make us work hard enough
for cheerful viewpoint, for the same
determination to see the best of life
which really makes the best In life q
tangible thing to all of us.

New Window Glass.

An English inventor has perfected a
new window glass to keep out cold ia
winter and heat in summer. The rev
glass is based on the well-known prin-
ciple that any gas Is poor conductor

ole pane, with a vacuum between, as
n thermos bottle. But the vacuum
makes the glass so easily breakAhle
hat this is not practical. So the in
fentor has designed double pane,
With space between the halves,
smoothly welded at all the edges. TIE
space within is pumped fun of carl IN
lioxide or some similar inert gas. If
the pressure of the gas within is eQNLl

one, and it resists the passage of h ut

The Duty OF Parents.

What better legacy can parents leave
their children than to teach them that
success and prosperity are surer IL
they begin by doing everything well;
by being so careful and exact in the
performance of every duty, and MAX
Ing themselves so useful that their
friends or employers "cannot do with
cut them" and that when success be-
gins to crown their efforts they will
"be happier and no poorer" If they use
some proportion of their wealth in
aiding those less fortunate? Let par
pnts and employers, both by example
and prccept teach their children and
their employees to be industrious,
faithful, economical and scrupulously
honest, and the daily papers Will not
send through our community so many
records of crime and immOralty.-Mil-
waukee Evening Wisconsin.

The Simple Breakfast.

Over, under and through all eating,
the simple breakfast still stands SUI
preme, declares A. J. r., in the Mime
apolis Journal. A glass of water,
cereal or wheat biscuit with cream in
abundance and Il peach from Colorado
sliced in, two slices of bacon not so
crisp that they break, two slices OF
homemade bread comfortably toasted,
cup of coffee poured upon the cream
and sugar and stopped ut exactly the
right color two of mothers dough-
nuts and as you leave the table with
A sigh of relief, if.it be possible to get
the hooks on one OF baby's bits of choc-
olate candy for topper, no great
harm is done. With that breakfast,
one may leave the house feeling that
ne is fortified until the noon hour rolls
around again.

Mozart's Music.

A recent biographer says Of Mozart
that the most wonderful fact about
him was that he directed his art to-
ward success without any sacrifice Of
himself, and his music was always
written with regard to Its effect upon
the public. Somehow 1t does not lose
by this, and 1t says exactly what he
wishes 1t to say. In this he was
helped by his delicate perceptions, his
shrewdness and his sense Of irony. He
despised his audience, but he held him
self in great esteem. He made no con-
cession that he need blush for; he de-
,ceived the public, but he guided 1t as
well. He gave the people the illusion
that they understood his idea, while,
as a matter Of fact, the applause that
greeted his work was excited only by
passages which were solely composed
for applause.

man who had quite reputation as a
"pleadcr"-went over to defend the old
man. Curled in front Of the defendant
was Il yellow dog. Vests "Eulogy of

some paper. 1t was not nearly so ia

CAT HELPS FIND THE LEAK
Ingenius Plumber Csmonstrates Feline
With Aid of Catnip, Is Worth
Having Around.

"Therc are more ways than one to
kill Il cat" says an old proverb, and
there are more ways than one to use
n cat" is the new reading. Here is an
illustration:
A plumber was called upon to locate
n supposed leak in ten-story tcne
mcnt house. After days cogitation
una sundry prottlcSS soundinGs and
Sniiiings, he finally hit upon a plan,
He went to drug store and bought lO
cents worth of fluid extract of valcrian
commonly called catnip. Then he
took the elevator to the top floor and
poured the vuerian diluted with water
down the drain. Half an hour later he
took n cat and visited each floor In
turn.
The cat exhibited no interest until a
room in the seventh story was reached.
Then. with bound, it sprang from the
plumbers arms and began to paw the
wall, mewing loudly. A hole was made
in the wall, and there, sure enough,
was the leak.
That plumber deserves to make a
fortune from his ingenuity.

King OF YEGGMEN
Title Won by Old Bob as Result
of Clever Tricks.
Expert Criminal Fooled Jailers by
Carrying Saws in What Appeared
to Be Pocket Pieces.

In the underworld the yegg was an
expert. Old Bob, king of yeggs, invent
ed, it is said, the pocket piece method
of carrying saws. 1t was clever
trick when he first brought it into ex
istence, writes Melville d. Post in the
Saturday Evening Post. When the au-
thorities at local prison, a county
Jail or station house searched the pris.
Oner they would find an old trade dol
lar or worn tive-franc piece in his
possession. The criminal would ask
the authorities to permit him to keep
1t because it belonged to some mem.
ber of his family-his mother, his fa-
ther or some imaginary child that had
cut his teeth on the metal edge in some
imaginary former happy home. 1t was
line Of what the underworld calls
soft stuff, and the prisoner was usually
able to put it over at the country Jail.
He was allowed to take the coin into
the cell with him; what danger could
there be in worn pocket piece treas
ured for its memories?
There were all kinds Of dangers In
It. The faces of the coin screwed to.
gether on delicate threads, and the in
terror was filled with tiny saws of the
best material. For a long time through
this device the clever criminal was
able to get about with fair equip
mcnt of saws always in his possession.
1t was for no slight accomplishments
that this man was known to the subter-
ranean world as the king of the yeggs.
1t was Old Bob, we nre told, who in.
vented the system of planting saws
about In the various prisons that he
might again be unfortunate enough to
enter. His method was clever and in
genious. Kindly religious people en-
deavor to reform criminals by sending
.racts and literature to the local
prison. The yegg inaugurated the habit
Of pasting these moral dissertations on
the wall of the cell. The custom
pleased the well-meaning people and it
'ould not be very we'll objected to by
the prison authorities. 1t was also
useful to the yeggmen!
The little sermons were glued to the
wall with sirup, usually a staple of
the prisoners diet. A thin saw of the
'est quality was thereby held in place
for the benefit of the yeggman If he
should ever by chance return that way.
~ for the benefit of any member of the
gang who might happen to be picked
mp by the police. 1t was long time
before the authorities discovered this
trick, and then they found the local
prisons of the country to be cached
with the handy burglar tool.
