Penny Postage Gone in England.

Penny postage, which disappeared
at midnight Sunday, June 2, was one
Of the great triumphs of peace, and
succumbed only to the demands of
war. Although the price has gone, the
principle remains, and nothing has
been q truer index to the march Of
progress than the penny stamp. Its
first use in 1910 for inland postage
amounted almost to q revolution. That
date fixes the "great divide" between
the old postal systems and the new.
The. penny stamp, probably more than
any other influence, exercised power
in holding together the scattered bonds
of kinship and acquaintance through
out the far-fung British empire, and
as q factor in imperial trade it pro-
vided the facilities upon which modern
trading depends.
Many years ago King Edward, then
prince of Wales, said he looked for
ward with hope to the day when every
English-speaking man, in whatever
part of the world he might be, should
be regarded as being as much an Eng
lishman, so far as the penny post was
concerned, as if he lived in Kent or
Sussex.

BEGIN HOT WATER
DRINKING GIF YOU -
DON'T FEEL RIGHT
Says glass of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
washes out poisons.

If you wake up with bad taste, bad
breath and tongue is coated; if your
head is dull or aching; if what you eat
sours and forms gas and acid in stom-
ach, or you are bilious, consGratGd,
nervous, sallow and can't get feeling
just right, begin inside bathing. Drink
before breakfast, a glass OF real l..
water with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it. This viii Gi!@H It's
poisons and toxins from stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels and cleanse,
sweeten and purify the entire al.men-
tary tract. Do your inside bathing ini-
mediately upon arising in the morning
to wash out of the system all the pre-
vious days poisonous waste. gases and
sour bile before putting more food into
the stomach.
To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves and
muscles became loaded with body ina-
purities, get from your pharmacist a
quarter pound of limestone phosphate
which is inexpensive and almost taste
less, eXcept for a sourish tWinge which
Is not unpleasant.
Just as soap and hot water acg on
the skin, cleansing, sweeteninG and
freshening, so hot water and limestone
phosphate act on the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels. Men and women
who are usually constipated, bilious,
headachy or have any stomach dis
order should begin this inside bathing
before breakfast. They are assured
they will become real cranks on the
subject shortly

TRIBUTE TO HERO
F. H. Simonds EuIogizes Col. Ray.
nal c. Boiling.
Services Of Aviation Expert, Before
His Untimely Death, Were Of tho
Greatest Value to the Coun.
try He Loved.

The men whom we could least spare.
and there are none we would willingly
spare, are the men who are giving
their lives to stem the fury Of the
German onslaught, writes f. 81.
Simonds in American Review Of Re
views.
It is this thought which must be
in the mind of all who knew Col.
Raynal G. Boiling, dead to the enemy
in the early days Of the great Ger
man offensive in March. Among all
the Americans who felt and foresaW
the coming Of this war to our own
country, none with clearer vision or
more instant response set himself to
the task, alike Of preparing himself
and of striving to persuade his fel-
low-countrymen to prepare them
selves. He chose for his work the
aviation branch and for the three
years, while the war was still remote
and meaningless to millions of people
on this side Of the Atlantic, he de-
voted his life to study and to practical
training in flying.
. When at last the war came, no
American Of his age counted greater
material success or was richer in the
things men sacrifice for an ideal, than
Colonel Boiling. General solicitor for
the United States Steel corporation,
respected and honored in the legal
profession for his attainments and
his promise, recognized as the one
whose influence and power for use
fulness in the future was to be great,
happy in home which gave him all
that q man can hope to receive on
this side Of his life, Colonel Boiling
laid aside all of these things to re-
spond to the call Of his country, not
only willingly but ready trained for
practical service.
For those who knew him and loved
him the tragedy Of his death, a
death which all who knew his daring
spirit, the unfailing response it made
to every challenge Of danger and diff
ficulty foresaw, does not lie in the
fact that he met the death he eX-
pected and they expected for him.
Rather it is found in the realization
that man who might have done so
much more in aiding his country and
his countrymen to prepare for the
real struggle, whose services were so
essential, whose loss was so irrepar-
able on the practical side, has been
lost to US at this grave hour.
Colonel Boiling did not die before
he had done much which will count
in the future and will be a portion of
the history of American organization
for the conflict.

Orioin of "Crater.D

The word "crater," from the hole
made by mine and afterward fought
for, has thoroughly established itself
in the language of the trenches. 1t is
highly obvious and inevitable borrow
ing from the volcano.
But the volcano itself took the word
from the original "crater"-the mix
ing bowl (from the verb meaning to
mix), in which the Greeks from the
earliest known times, mingled water
with the wine that they seldom cared
or dared to drink neat.
These craters, which stood in con-
spicuous positions in the hall, were
often of huge size, and the resem-
blance to them Of the volcanoes orifice
struck all ancient observers, who used
the word "crater" in the modern vol
canic sense.
