YOUNGSTERS Love Soldiers.

The old saying that call the world
loves lover" might be changed these
military days to "every kid loves a
soldier" or his uniform, at least. Just
watch the little boys and girls as a
soldier passes. Those admiring glances
would not be bestowed on Stacker"
Here are two cases in point, cites the
Indianapolis News:
II JUS low gu soders," said three
year-old Charles Ullrich, son Of Fred
Ullrich, Big Four agent at Shelbyville,
as he entwined his arms about the
neck or Sergeant Ross Reed, of Green's
burg. Reed, with several Decatur
county soldiers from Camp Taylor,
were on the way to Greensburg, by
way of Shelbyville, and the sergeant
after buying a ticket had leaned up
against the railing of the ticket office
when the three-year-old Rugged him.
A second illustration occurred when
Sergeant Reed reached Greensburg on
the way to his parents home. He was
confronted by tiny soldierly figure
that saluted with all the grace and
courtesy of a trained soldier. The
sergeant exchanged the salute, and
then learned the tribute had been paid
by six-year-old Henry Jerman, son Of
Prof. e. J. Jerman, superintendent Of
Greensburg's city schools.

About Cork.

A good, sound cork is something
worth taking care of and using prop
erly. Never "waggle'' a cork out of
a bottle. That is the best way to
break or at least spring crack in
the cork Remove the cork with a
turning or twisting movement, always
in one direction only, 1. e., not twist
one way and then in the opposite way.
Replace the cork with the same twist
as when removing it. Never lay cork
down on dirty, splashed table. If 1t
must be laid down, stand it on it's
crown or top. For bottles containing
liquids in use, e. g., developers, etc.,
attach the cork to the bottle thus:
Pass a crochet needle through the top
of the cork, and with it's aid draw the
end of a piece Of fine Irvine right
through the cork, and tie this end Of
the string round the neck of the bottle,
so adjusting matters that the cork just
fails to reach the table ii. e., bottom
Of the bottle) when the cork and
string are free. This saves the cork
getting lost in the darkroom.

WHERE BITES ARE TREATED
Mission Dispensaries Cure Many Afri-
cans Who Sustain All Manner of
Dangerous Injuries.

Africans go to the mission dispen-
saries to be cured of bites from all
kinds Of animals, and a large num-
Der of them are cured. The common
est bites are from snakes, say writer
in World Outlook. In Inhambane are
Is to 20 varieties of poisonous snakes,
some very deadly, whose bites mean a
fight for life. Hyenas kill or carry
off hundreds of children each year,
and most Of those who are rescued
have terrible scalp wounds, as the
hyena carries "a child by the, head.
Other biting pests of the region are
lions, from whom few escape alive;
scorpions, very poisonous and fond of
getting into beds; hypo flies, large
flies that in biting take huge pieces of
flesh and cause great swellings;
sharks, Of which the bay is full.
But the most common, bite and
seemingly the hardest to heal, is the
human bit. The Africans when they
get angry use their teeth to good ad-
vantage. There is scarcely a morn
ing that several do not come to the
dispensary. One boy had his lower
lip bit off, and for him a new lip
was made. Atf

Plume Hunters.

Florida once upon time was alive
with wild birds, says the Florida
Times Union. According to William
T. Honaday, author of American Ma
tural History, no other state in Amer
lea, except possibly California, ever
possessed a bird fauna quite compar-
able with Florida. Florida bird life
was one of the wonders of America.
But the gunners began to shoot and
shoot.
The plume hunters have practically
exterminated the roseate spoonbill, the
famingo the scarlet ibis, and the
Carolina parrakeet, and the limpkin
and ivory-billed woodpecker have
about disappeared, largely in the in
terest of the millinery business to orna-
ment fashionable hats. The robin and
other song and misunderstanding birds
are fast going. Unless a stand is
taken by well enforced laws the wild
bird life of the state will eventually
disappear and the multiplicity of in
sects must imperil or destroy agricul-
tural interests.

Origin of the Greek Church.

Apart from theological discussions
such as those rising from the addition
of the words, land the son." in the
creed, the separation of the Latin and
Greek churches may be traced to the
founding of Constantinople and the
political division of the Roman en-
pire, according to Bible student.
Ignatius, patriarch Of Constantinople,
had been deposed, and was succeeded
by Photius, who summoned a council
of the East in S67, and passed SEN
tence of accommodation on the bish-
Op of Rome. The churches became re-
united towards the end of the ninth
century, and remained so until the
middle of the eleventh century, when
in 1854 Michael Cerularius, patriarch
of the East, renewed the condemna-
ton of the Latin church, and was in
turn communicated by Pope Leo
TX. Efforts toward reunion were
made from time to time, and at Fer
rara (1439) the Greek prelates signed
decree of union, but were forced
by the people and clergy to repudiate
it. Since then the two communions
have remained separate. \

Art and Science.

In a recent number of the Bookman
William Lyon Phelps thus sets forth
the advantage a work of art possesses
over q scientific book: "a great work
of art is never old-fashioned because
it expresses in final form some truth
about human nature, and human ma
ture never changes-in comparison
with its primal elements, the noun
tains are ephemeral. A drama dealing
with the impalpable human soul is
more likely to stay true than a treatise
on geology. This is the notable ad-
vantage works of art have over works
of science, the advantage of being and
remaining true. No matter how i'm
portant the contribution of scientific
books, they are alleged with inevitable
error, and after the death of their au-
thors must be constantly revised by
lesser men, improved by smaller minds,
whereas the masterpieces of poetry,
drama and fiction can not be revised
because they are always true. The lat
est edition of work of science is the
most valuable; and in literature, the
earliest"

AMERICANS ONE GREAT IDEA
Happiness Has Principal charm-The
People Are the Most IdeaIistic

1.-THE Americans are the most ideal

world, and the most prosaic, because
like Wordsworth, the most prosaic Of
poets, they believe in happiness, and
happiness to them as to Wordsworth
means mems sana in cOrpore sano; ;
every one efficient in the tasks of mod

some, and besides elated by winning
some prize or other for a poem. He
said to me in his arrogant way that
poetry is a by-product of life. Why, I
said, it is life ITSELF I don't agree
with YOU was all he condescended to
reply. This young man expressed the
American idea.
81 think the English dislike of the

is because of their poetical minds and
their preoccupation with personality
and it's freedom.
