for a laboratory and workshop near

When Mr.. Bernheim heard of Doc

said: "Tell Doctor Carrel that am
greatly flattered at his choice and thu

When the question of rent was
raised Mr.. Bernheim exclaimed: "No

DEPENDS ON ONES THOUGHTS
BY No Means Always the Part OF Real
Wisdom for Persons to Say
What They Think.

( Whether we are to say what we
think, or not. depends entirely on what
our thoughts are and how they will
infect others. There are some thoughts
Il is sin to hide. The people who
smother good thought because they
ore afraid of being misunderstood or
laughed at, take upon themselves
dangerous responsibility. To conceal
a kind thought il something for which
there is no excuse.
There are other thoughts which 1t Is
a pity to allow to get beyond your own
brain. 1t is unfortunate indeed to have
them, but at least you can resolve that
they shall never get outside OF their
birthplace. If you think this werld Is
n dreary, dismal place. what Is the
good of saying so? IL morbid. angry
thoughts have taken possession or you,
STAMP them out as you would a breed
of snakes.
Be brave enough to speak the
thought which should be spoken, no
matter whether 1t is likely to be pop
ular or not. And be streng enough to
hold in leash the thought which. II
It should escape, would work harm to
bthers.-Selected

duced himself to the commanding of.
ficer as brother of the soldier in
question and asked permission to have
talk with him. The permission was
granted, and he went to his brothers
quarters. Part Of the conversation
vas overheard, and those who heard
it say it was heated, although one
sided.
Brother Said Something.
( "YOu yellow cur" exclaimed the
visiting brother. Eve are all ashamed
OF you at home, but you are going to
do mans part in this war. Mother
told me to come down here and make
you withdraw that fool conscientious
Cbjector claim. and If you don't do It
am going to beat you to death right
here in this camp. What possessed
you anyway" There was good deal
more of the same kind.
At the end of about an hour the
two brothers went before Major Coffin.
the personnel officer. Major" said
the visitor, my brother wants to
withdraw the affidavit about being a
conscientious objector. Can he do
it?"
"Well," replied Major Coffin, "ft
must be voluntary act on his part"
Ana, turning to the soldier, who had
made the claim, he asked: do you
want to do this voluntarily. Is 1t Of
your own free will?"
The soldier moistened his lips and
glanced at his brother. and replied:
Yes, sir. 1t is of my own free will,
and l want to withdraw it."
Is Now Making Good.
Major Coffin found the affidavit and
tore it up, and then issued an order
transferring the soldier to an active
regiment, and the soldier left.
After he had gone the visitor turned
to Major Coffin and said: Major, I
thank you. 1 had determined there
would be no yellow ours in my family,
and If that boy hadn't withdrawn that
effidavit l would have beaten him up
right here. But I'm glad he did 1t Of
his own free will"
The soldier who thought he was a
conscientious objector has been max
ing good ever since the visit of his
brother. He seems, I'm fact, to be more
afraid of his brother than Of the Ger
mans. and those who have been watch
ing him are of the opinion that he will
make a very good fighting man.
