Two Heroes Remembered.

Jasper county, Indiana, was named In honor of Sergeant Jasper of the Revolutionary army because of his spe- cial patriotism and bravery. He was a sergeant in t South Carolina regiment And in the attack on Fort Moultrie, early in the war, the flagstaff was shot off and the flag fell to the bottom of the ditch outside of the works. Jump Ing from cne of the embrasures, Jasper mounted the colors, tied them tc a staff and held them in position under a bot fire until another flagstaff was brought. For this commission was offered him but he declined it through distrust of his qualifications. OF an other occasion he ana another sergeant named Newton attacked a British guard of ten men and released some prisoners the guard were conveying to Savannah. A township in Jasper coun- ty s named Newton in honor of Jas per's companion on this occasion. A county in Georg!e and central square in Savannah help to perpetuate Jas, per's name. He was killed at Savannah near the close of the wan

Fresh Greens for the Car arx.

; Canaries are very fond of lettuce. celery tops and other young and ten. der greens, as all birdlovers know. When the birdman tells us we must not give these things to our pets too frequently the temptation to so con- frary to advice Is strong, for we sym. 2athize keenly. An accident showed me the way to gradfy our pets without harm to them, aS experience has proven. Some months since, a little birdseed was spilled on the earth in large tub containing rubber plant Soon these seeds spr@uted, and we hit upon the idea of removing the bottoio from the cage and setting it over the young sprouts. The joy the canaries found in their greens, and the conse- Quent discovery that the birds were really gaining in health and song con- vinced us that box of sprouting bird. seed was the thing to keep on hand for them.-Exchange.

System Important habit

One of the most important habits to form is that of system. It is habit natural to some women, but to most 1t is an acquired one. It Is generally a cultivated virtue, achieved through dogged persistence and in spite of many falling from grace. Some ,ot the most systematic persons can recall days when an utter lack of system dominated their lives. The discomfort they suffered then keeps them .on guard lest they slip back Into their old way of doing. It is best to begin to be systematic when one is young. but there Is no bigger mistake than to consider unsystematic ways irremedi' able after youth has passed. Anyone can cure the fault of wa-t of system and save oneself needless inconven- fences and increase ones usefulness to other people.--Eycho naa

Orluin of Moon tn Doubt.

Many theories of the origin of the moon have been advanced, but all seem to present some difficulties. Our satellite furnishes us many un, solved problems. A belief in the meteoric origin of the moon is now quite general. According to t.is be

The material forming the ring gradually gathered Into one mass, our present moon. whose pitted face gives evidence of the bonibardment it received from me teoric masses within the ring.

Why Flour ExpIodes.


 Records of the last ten years show that about twenty explosions have oc. cured in cereal, flour and feed mills, with the loss of $2000,000 worth of property, as well as the killing or in. turing of over two hundred employees. Investigations regarding the causes of these explosions and subsequent fires have not proved conclusively what arc the difficulties to be avoided. In eight cases the explosions are believed to have originated from the sparks pro- duced in the machines during the grinding process. Tiny particles of gravel or metallic substances coming Into contact with the plates of the ma chine may produce enough sparks 90 ignite the dust within the machine. Another possible cause for cereal dust explosions suggested Is tEe use of naked flames.

PRESIDENT WILSON'S READING

An interesting and Informative sto-
ry regarding President Wilson's read
ing comes to America by way of Lon
don. A newspaper correspondent
found that the president looks over
eight newspapers more or less regular
ly. They are the Baltimore Sun,
Washington Star, New York Post,
Times and World, Springfield (Massa-
chusetts) Republican, the Philadelphia
Record and the Newark New Jersey
Evening News. Each day the pres
ident's private secretary and two as
sistants clip from many papers, and
the clippings deemed of interest to
the president are pasted on to sheets
of yellow paper, 80 or 40 pages of
which are fastened together. Strik-
ing cartoons are often cut out for the
presidents special attention.
President Wilson reads the weekly
edition of the Times regularly. French
and Italian journals he knows through
translations, and translations from
German papers are supplied to him
regularly. For intimate information
from Europe he depends on ambassa-
dors, ministers and consuls.
Twice every week the secret serv-
ice submits a report to him. The army
and navy intelligence bureaus also re-
port regularly. Individuals-United
States citizens and others-who be-
lieve themselves possessors of impor-
tant information are told to put it in
writing. A great number of these un-
official memoranda are sent to the
White House, and it is said, the real
ly valuable ones always reach the
president.

chose the stiff elbow, and astonished
the surgeons by asking that the arm
be made perfectly straight so he could
use hunting rife and a billiard cue.

I Whenever a national war breaks out
terrorism becomes a necessary mill
tary principle"
Warned Against Humanity.
Such teachings were summed up in
the official German War Book" pub
lished in 1902. 1t advised, for in
stance:
Since the tendency of thought in
the last century was dominated essen
TALLY by humanitarian considerations,
which not infrequently degenerated in
to sentimentality and fiabby emotion,
there have not been wanting attempts
to influence the development of the
usages of war in way which was in
fundamental contradiction with the ma
ture of war and its object. By
sleeping himself in military history an
officer will be apt to guard himself
against excessive humanitarian no
tons; it will teach him that certain
seventies are indispensable to war,
nay more. that the only true humanity
very often lies in a ruthless applica-
tion OF them"
And in order to assist German Of
ficers in carrying out the spirit of
this advice. a manual was prepared
for them in 1906. called Military In
terpreter for Use in the Enemy's

tions threatening towns and villages

German propagandists in Nebrask;

Civil War with the instructions Civ.
en- to the German armies in the pres
ent conflict.
At President Lincoln's request, Gen.
eral Order No. 100 was drawn up for
the Federal armies in the field.
Section 16 provides: Military neces-
ity does not admit of cruelty. that is,
the infiiction of suffering for the sake
of suffering or of revenge, nor of
manning or wounding except in fight,
nor of torture to extort confessions.
1t does not admit of the use of poi

claims acts of perfidy; and in general
military necessity does not include
any act which makes the return of
peace unnecessarily difficult"
No DepOrtatiOns.
Section No. % points out: "Pri-
vate citizens are no longer murdered,
enslaved, or carried off to distant
parts, and the inoffensive individual is
as little disturbed in his private rela-
tions as the commander of the hostile
troops can afford to grant in the over
ruling demands Of vigorous war"
Section No. 35 orders: Classical
works of art, libraries. scientific col
lections, or precious instruments, such
as astronomical telescopes, as well as
hospitals, must be secured against all
avoidable injury, even when they are
contained in fortified places whilst
beseiged and bombarded."
Compare with these instructions the
German theory and practice of war as
given at length in the pamphlet, Ger
man War Practises", issued by the
U S. Committee on Public Informtion.
For a generation, the Germans have
been taught: "In such dangerous
things as war, the errors which pro-
ceed from a spirit of 'good-natured-
ness are precisely the worst" THE
enemy must not be spared the want
and wretchedness Of war; these are
useful in shattering its
energy and subduing its will" "Indi-
Tidual persons may be harshly dealt
with when an example is made of
hem, intended to serve as a warning"
