Natural Liberty.

The natural liberty of man. by en-
tering into society, is abridged or re-
strained, so far only as is necessary
for the great end of society, the best
rood Of the whole. In the state of ma
ture every man is. under God. Judge
and sole Judge Of his own rights and
Of the injuries done him. By entering
into society he agrees to an arbiter or
Indifferent Judge between him and his
neighbors; but he no more renounces
his original right than by taking
cause out of the ordinary course OF
law, and leaving the decision to ref
erees or Indifferent arbitrator. In the
last case he must pay the referees Tor
time and trouble. He should also be
willing to pay his just quota for the
support Of government, the law and
the Constitution.-Samue Adams.

All Circus RInos Same Size.


Railway tickets are the same size
ali over Britain and the continent and
America-viz., two and one-quarter
lnches-and have been SO for the last
80 years. This surely indicates .
world wide tendency to standardize.
Every builders ladder is built to
scale, and the nreman's ladder Is on
the scale of the seaman's run up the
ratlines, not the bricklayer's trudge up
the wooden rungs. But perhaps the
greatest triumph Of ,tandardizing is
that Of the circus. London Tit-Bits
says: There are big and little circuses
In the world, but the ring Is always
Of the same diameter, for the bare
back rider has discovered the exact
angle at which he can square the cir
Gle. No matter whether 1t be ring
cut in the turf or a luxuriously APP
pointed theater. the circus ring never
varies q foot.

SEEK FOOD ECONOMY

How to teach the newer ways of
preparing foods without wasting food
through exhibits or even without Ell
hibits entirely is the problem tlfV
Food Administration is asking TO have
solved. The county fairs are now ar,
ranging their premium lists. and any
suggestions for teaching without the
use of exhibits will be gladly received
now. In many of the counties. the
food demonstration Is sold at auction
and the proceeds given to the Red
Cross. This serves threefold pur-
pose: the food exhibited should ocn-
vince the people that the products are
desirable; the food is not wasted but is
used legitimately in feeding people; 1t
furnishes money for the Red Cross.
