Farmers as a rule put their hard
earned money into more land or bet
ter stock. This policy has always
paid them so well that they know
nothing about the purchasing Of bonds
or securities. The farmers should re-
member now that another drive on
Liberty bonds is to be made, that Lib
erty bonds are not ordinary bonds.
OF course they are safe Investment;
but above all idea of investment and
of profit is the fact that the coun-
try has asked everybody to dig down
into their jeans and loan their money
for the common good.
Farmers sons, bankers sons, mer-
chants sons, everybody's sons are CIV
ing their time and their talents to
their country in her time Of need.
These young men are prepared to go
the limit and give their lives if need
be. The farmer, the banker, the mer-
chant and everybody everywhere are
not being asked to give their time and
talent. but they are asked to dig down
into their jeans and loan the country
all the money they can spare. And
while the loan is being asked Of the
man and woman at home they should
always remember that the money
loaned is to be used for the equip
ment and the keep Of their own sons.
Don't stop to think, don't ask CUES
tions. don't consider any other invest
ment, but dig at once and dig deep
when the drive is made for the next
Liberty loan.

ALL HAVE THEIR UNDER DOGS
Good Reasons Why Peoples Sympa-
thies Are With the Fellow Who
Is Temporarily Down.

Our sympathies naturally travel the
line Of lilies-that is, the things we feel
in ourselves, we feel in others. We APP
plaud the under-dog, because we so
often have been the under-dog. We like
10 lift the other fellow up when he is
down, because we also have been down.
Sympathy starts at home--or else it
isn't sympathy.
Your periodic moods of failure and
disappointment are your under-dogs.
SO, instead Of walking past these
under-dOgs Of yours and casting no
sympathy their way, pause to give
them your heart and your hope, and
soon the picture and fact will be your
oyer-dogs-your victories and your
genuine achievements.
No under-dogs can possibly appeal
in Importance to the under-dogs Of
your daily experience.
Perhaps you will applaud alone the
under-dogs of your personal glooms
and shadows, but what of it? As Low
ell says: "Daily, with souls that
crlnge and plot. we .Sinais climb and
know it not" What difference, what
odds, so long as over your manhood
bend the skiesY
Courageously cheer the under-dogs
of your experiences and stay proudly
by them until their fight becomes a fac
tor of your klngship.-George Matthew
Adams, in Good Housekeeping.

REnMnNn AND HoME RrLE

A London dispatch reports that
the death of John Edward Redmond,
when the convention which is to settle
the future Of Ireland is having it's
most momentous sessions, is consid-
cred in political circles to be "al-
most a disaster
The death Of such a man as Red
mond at any time is disastrous, and
Redmond's death is especially 50 be-
cause there is no one in sight to Git
his place; no one who has displayed
his qualifications to hold the peculiar
ly difficult post Of leader Of the Irish
NationalisCs and at the same time to
deserve and command the confidence
Of all political shades Of the British
Parliament and the British people.
For John Redmond was not only a
great lri-hman, but great Briton.
His death ait this time is nfor-
tunate for ireland, but it ought not
to be a disaster to the cause Of Irish
Home Rule. His work had been so
well done; it had been so nearly COM
pleted, that if his comtrymen are not
able to complete it in the spirit in
which it had been carried on under
his direction it is doubtful Il as yet
they are equal to the responsibility
they seek Home Rule for Ireland is
yet indefinitely in the future if the
death Of any one man can prove n
disaster" to it.
Deplorable as it is-for Redmond
was a stronger leader than Parnell
whom he succeeded his death should
not now seriously delay the cffectuo-
ton Of Irish Home Rule, which in all
probability would have been crectuat-
ed three years ago but for the break
ing out of the war. Home Rule is not
one-man rule, and if the Irish now
cannot work out their own salvation
there is no assurance that they would
have been able to maintain self-goy-
eminent under any leader. And only
the enemies Of the Irish believe that.

ORIGIN OF MILITARY SALUTE

ORIGIN OF MILITARY SALUTE
The form Of the military salute Of
subordinates to officers-the handlift-
ed level with the brow--is said to date
back to the time when "knighthood
was in flower" and men rode in tour
naments for empty but brilliant social
honors. The contestants, upon enter
inc the arena, rode up before the box
of the "queen Of love and beauty"
and yelled their eyes with lifted hand
as tho shielding them from the radi-
ance Of her charms.
The explanation may or may not be
correct-very probably it is not, but
lie is pretty conceit and fits in with
the glamour that gives a tinge of ro-
nance to war.
Some months ago this paper, under
the suggestion Of a patriotic Memphis
woman. suggested the adoption Of
salute from civilians for the soldiers
passed in the street or other places.
A discussion brought out a preference
for the right hand lifted toward the
soldier, palm out, with the clerical
significance of "God bless you" or
"God be with you"
The proposition was sent to the war
department with a request that it con-
slider the matter, and either adopt that
salute or suggest another. All that
the people wanted was some way to
show the man in uniform a kindly
spirit Of respect for his devotion to his
country.
But the war department answered
that it had no. authority to establish
such a cus tom, and the matter was put
inside. But it is really too pretty and
patriotic an idea to be abandoned.
There ought to be some way to eX-
rregs to the enlisted man a civilians
admiration and friendship. We pass
these men, dedicated to duty, every
dav. and there should be some uniyer-
eaI salute which would interpret the
Thought in our hearts. Always that
thought is a blessing or a prayer

How Would You Tie Camel?

Because of its peculiar swaying mo-
ton in walking the camel has been
called the Ship of the desert" This
title may also have some reference to
the extreme stupidity and passivity Of
the animal, which submits to great
loads, which it will often carry for
days Mt n time without stopping for
food or drink, with no more urging
than a ship would require from the
hands of its pilot, says the Popular
Science Monthly. The manner in which
the drivers hobble the camels when
they stop for a rest is interesting

GLASS STAINED BY X-RAYS
Experiments Have Shown These Pro-
duce the Same Effect as the
Light of the Sun.

IT Is well known that glass exposed
for long to sunlight acquires a violet
tint. In very old houses the windows
facing south are often distinctly vio-
let. Experiments recently made in the
laboratories of the General Electric
company ut Schenectady with Xrays
prove that these can be used to dye
glass in many colors, principally an
amethystlne violet and an amber yell
low, but also green and bright yellow.
These colors, according to Mr.. Ro-
scnthal, who conducted the expert
ments, are due to notifications Of the
physical structure of the glass and not
to chemical alterations. The color can
be made to penetrate to any desired
depth, from a mere surface tint to
complete coloration of the entire sub
stance. And the same method can be
applied TO tinting porcelain, enamel
and precious stones.
An interesting and important fact
about this glass that has been colored
by long exposure to N-rays Is that 1t
becomes impervious to the radiations
that have transformed It. Thus it can
he used rs a protection against the
glare Of the sun or the snow and
against the X-rays themselves.

This is no "fsh" story as the term
is usually referred to- but it is a story
about fish. Jim Foster, student of fish
affairs, vouches for its authenticity.
Jim has a collection Of big live fish
in a small aquarium in a downtown
restaurant and for u hours every night
he watches them perform.
"The fish are very affectionate," de-
clared the fish student. "They are
good-tempered and kind toward one an
other. See those two largest fish?
They are married. I guess, or else in
love with each other. They always
kiss each other good night and nibble
af'ectionately at each others mouths.
