MINES ABOUT LENS
WRECKED BY BOOBIES

Paris, Oct. l5.-It viii be from eight
cen months to two years before it will
be possible to take out any coal from
the mines in the Lens region, which
the Germans damaged to the best of
their ability before they retired from
the city, an inspection of the mining
properties has revealed. 1t is estimat-
ed that it will take five years to re-
store the normal production of the
pits.

GET USED TO SUDDEN DEATH
Grim Humor in the Trenches by No
Means Denotes iCaIlousness of
Disposition.

Capt. Leonard G. Wells of Baltimore,
who recently permitted himself to be
bitten by trench lice, thus contract
ing trench fever, that the doctors
might study it, said on his return
home:
"To submit yourself to the hungry
jaws of the trench louise is a grimly
humorous procedure, isn't it? Well,
war is grimly humorous in many of its
aspects.
"They tell over the water a story
about a company of tough dough boys
from New Yorl's East side who sat
playing poker one night in a dugout
during n bombardment.
1.-The game went on, the shells
whizzed and banged outside, and then
a grenade came through the doorway
and finished one of the poker players
playing forever.
"While the rest sat waiting for
the stretcher-bearers, the nearest
dough boy took up the cards from the
dead mans hand, studied them, and
then put them down again and said !:
att don't matter, fellers. Poor Bill
couldn't a made it, anyway. l had

CONQUEST
BY HENRI CHAPELLE.
of the ViqiIantes.

The broad, beloved life of a peace
full, housekeeping nation, is a prod
uct, not an ordinance to be proclaim
ed. Why, then, do we talk of negotiat-
ing peace, when it has been destroyed
by violence? The forces, that make
peace must first be reestablished.
One might as well talk of peace to
a man struggling in the hands Of a
murderous highwayman. One might
as well talk of a peace settlement with
the thief, to a man who has been rob-
bed.
Wherever moral issues are involved,
the instinct of mankind demands a
clean-cat conquest of evil.
Wherever there is definite attempt
TO injure another person, the one as
sailed knows he must win decided
conquest to be safe.
Wherever there is a man who lives
justly, he is entitled to conquest over
those who attacked him.
Right, safety, and justice all de-
mand conquest over wrong, danger
and brutality. Let conquest be the
word we use in speaking of the dis
position of this war.

OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy in
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it
A prominent druggist says, Take for
example Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, u
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy that know Of
has so large a SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmers' Swamp-Root is due to the fact
that, so many people claim, it fulfls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle Of
Swamp-Root by Parcel Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, and
enclose ten cents; also mention this paper.

KEROSENE LAMPS I'M INDIA
Illuminating Agencies Used in Smaller
Cities Were Originally Imported
From the United States.

India Is making slow but steady prog
ress in introducing more modern light
ing methods, Popular Science Monthly
states. All public lighting in the large
cities of India is by electricity; but
In the smaller cities the methods of
lighting, public as well as private, are
still very primitive.
For native festivals-and there are
a great many of these-large kerosene
lamps of an elaborate pattern are much
used. They are known in many To-
calities as washington lights" and
were originally brought to India from
the United States. At various religious
professions and especially at we'd
ding professions as many as 20 or
80 Of these lamps are carried on the
heads of bearers, who are engaged for
the occasion and paid fixed fee.
These lamps are high-pressure kero-
sene lamps constructed upon the prin-
ciple of the kerosene torches used in
the United States. The light is pro-
tected by mica chimney and is very
brilliant. Colored globes are some
times used. These lamps are no long
er imported from the United States,
but are manufactured in Bombay. The
Bombay lights" cost about So or So,
while the imported kind cannot be
bought for less than $50 apiece.

SLACKERS OLD AND NEW
BY CYRUS TOWNSEND BRADY
of the NiuiIantes.

The papers chronicle day by day the
steady advance of the British soldiers
northward through Palestine. Their
lines extend from the Jordan to the
sea and they are slowly but surely
driving the Turks before them in this
latest, greatest and most decisive
crusade.
If the followers of Mahomet can
make any stand against the followers
of Christ it will surely be in the plain
of Esdraelon, one of the natural bat
tlefelds of the world. 1t is singular
how some places lend themselves in
evitably to conflict. The plain of Jez-
reel, to give it another name, is one
of these. l. has been fought over con-
tinually since Thothmes there defeated
the Hittites in the dawn of recorded
history. Jew and Gentle; Canaanite,
Assyrian, Babylonian, Scythian, Per-
sian, Greek and Roman contested for
its mastery in the East; English,
French, Italian, German, Arabian, and
Turk from Godfrey and Richard and
tile soil with blood in more modern
times. May the forthcoming be the
last of its many battles, and Allenby
the last of the long line of crusaders.
One of the most decisive of the con-
flicts upon that plain occurred in 1896
B. G. when Barak, the Lightning, in
spired by Deborah led ten thousand
men down the slopes of Mount Tabor
in a successful night onfall and sur
prise of the army of the Oppressor,
Jabin Of Hazor, under the command
of Sisera. The Hazorites were disas-
trously defeated, driven in panic ter
ror down the narrow pass cut by the
Kishon, then in full flood, and killed
or drowned in large numbers.
Deborah made a great song about
the triumph. One stanza runs this
way:
Course We Meroz said the Angel Of
the Lord, curse We bitterly the inhabi-
tants thereof; because they came not
to the help of the Lord, to the help
of the Lord against the mighty"
No one knows where Meroz lay. No
ruined vestiges remain to identify it.
There is no other mention of it in the
pages of history. There is no ground
even for speculation about it. Yet for
over thirty-two centuries it has been
pilloried in its infamy in that immortal
song. Whatever it's prosperity and its
works, whatever it's hopes and achieve
ments, the loves and hates, the sue
cesses or failures, of it's people-they
are all forgotten in the blistering, with
ering condemnation of the singer. It
stands as a place accursed forever.
Perhaps its utter oblivion is the re-
suit of the merited condemnation.
Shall there be written against our
city, against our land, the curse Of
Meroz? Shall we apply to these and
to ourselves this slackers' text? Or
shall we come to the help of the Lord
today, tomorrow and forever, in the
great conflict now, and at all times,
being waged in Europe and everywhere
against sin and the devil?
Curse We Meroz? Non nobis, Domino
Not unto us, Oh Lord
