LONDON WEEKLY NATION
 DISCUSSES ENTENTE REPLY
Considers the Expulsion of Turks From Europe a Drastic Penalty.

London, Jan. F, S.35 D. m.-The Weekly Nation, discussing briey the entente reply to President Wilson, re- marks that this is the first time that all the entente allies have formally committed themselves to the approval of a league of nations for ensuring peace. It considers the expulsion of the Turks from Europe a drastic pen .alty; but the people of the United States, who have taken a Special and honorable interest in the wrongs of Armenia, will hardly think it eXces- sive."
 Referring to the address of Am bassador Gerard in Berlin, the Nation thinks the incident has been much cX- aggerated but that it is nevertheless disquieting, because it suggests that in the mbassador's mind there is a chance that the present relatively moderate government of Germany may fall, and this figures as a real possibility"

The Teeth.

Dental decay is caused by the action
Of acid on the hard substance of the
tooth. This acid is formed from the de-
composition of starchy and sugaly
foods, which cling about the crevices of
the teeth long after the meal is over
Soft, starchy or sugary foods, such as
sweet biscuits, cake, jams or MARINA
lade, soaked bread, milk, buildings,
chocolate or sweets of any kind, are all
ways injurious if eaten at the close of
a meal.
All foods which require thorough
mastication act as natural tooth
brushes and ward off decay. Mastica-
ton is much neglected art The teeth
and jaws require exercise like any
other part of the body. The perfect.
teeth met with among the negroes of
the West Indies are entirely due to-
their habit of sucking sugar cane.
which is hard and woody.

VALUE OF "KEEPING AT IT"
Great Results May Be Achieved
Through Trifling Exertion Repeat

Andrew Carnegie once said that "a
half hour day, spent in particular
line of study, is the best investment
any man can make" This recognition
of the results which may be achieved
through the accumulative effect of
trifing exertion, repeated steadily and
persistently, is an expression of an i'm
pOrtant truth.
To take concrete instance, one who
will browse among the pages of first
class dictionary 10 minutes daily, and
will do so steadily every day, will ac-
quire within a year or two an excep-
tionals knowledge Of English etymology
and al wide vocabulary as we'll. Habits
are, after all, a great part of what any
of us are. In these hurried days it be-
comes increasingly difficult for us to-
crowd into our program anything I'M
usual. That which we have trained
ourselves to do is accomplished with
out effort, while we shrink from the
effort necessary to pursue something
unaccustomed. One may train his ply
steal makeup and his personality to do.
him service along good lines as effect
lively as they can lead him into harm if
unrestrained. For real cultivation
nothing has yet been invented more
efficacious than steady application, day
after day, for stated period, to some
thing worth while.-Knickerboc

BARBER POLE AS TOMBSTONE
Indian Insisted on Placing Headstone
of His Own Choice Over Grave OF
His Dead Squaw.

Here is q curious story of Indian SIM
plicity, as related by an official of the
Indian bureau at Washington, says the
Los Angeles Times.
On the Navajo reservation great eff
forts had at one time been made to In
duce the Indians to abandon their GUS
tom of leaving the bodies of their dead
above ground, and to adopt the white
mans system of burial.
The agents success was encouraging
and arrangements were made by which.
the government should supply neat,
headstones. A stock of them was laid
in, and soon after they arrived tall
Navajo appeared. He had lost his
squaw and wished a headstone. He,
looked the collection over, but said
''No, nor to each one.
IF you will tell me what you want,
will try to get one," said the agent.
s'Want United States tombstone
said the Navajo.
The agent made every effort to find
out what was meant, but the redman
would only respond, Omitted States
LO1lDSlOuS
At last the agent, fearing that the
mans disappointment might result un~
favorably to the scheme for introduce
ing white mems burial methods, gave.
the Indian some money and told him to-
go and buy the kind Of grayestone he
liked.
Sometime afterward a party of hunt
ers came into the agency. They had
been to the lodge of the tall Navajo
who had just lost his wife, and had
seen her grave, and at the head of it
was posted a red-and-white BARRIERS
pole
This was the Nayajos idea of a
.United States tombstone" 1t was az
near as he could come to gravestone
bearing the national colors, and as he
was very patriotic Indian, he was
content.

Moonshine. onions and somnambuIlsm..

Moonshine, Onions and somnambuTism-.
All peoples in all times have seen
an intimate connection between the.
moon and fruitfulness, both animal and
vegetable. Given now," says the New
York Medical Journal, ''the onions
which come to our city market owe,
their excellence to the farmers care
full conjunction Of planting time with
the phases of the moon" Such ideas
have been so universal that mans I'M
conscious mind still preserves them,
though his judgment may scorn them
as absurd.
Doctor Sadger of Vienna cites cases
of somnambulists who under the In
f1uence Of moonlight are recalled to
times and scenes of active childish
wishes. The moon calls them In deep
sleep to act out dream wishes" The
Medical Journal suggests that the key
to sleep walking and other kindred
disorders of childhood and late life
may be found in moon-lore.
