japanese Teas the Best.

One feature which marks tea curing
in Japan is the proverbial cleanliness
which is characteristic of the Japanese
people. The rules of sanitation are
strictly observed by the tea growers of
Japan. Not only the health and sani-
tation of workers are strictly examined
by local tea associations, but also the
process Of curing is inspected with
great care. Japanese teas have never
been artificially colored as have been
teas from some other countries.

HIS FRIEND THE KAISER.

(Ithaca Cor. Richland Democrat.)
It thrills one to read Of the great
courage and devotion that the Eng
lish and French soldiers are exhibit
ing in the greatest and the bIoodiest
battle that the world has ever known
How about the boast of Hun Bill, the
Butcher Of Berlin" and old pot-gutted
HindenbUrg, the beast? Both told the
hoodwinked soldiers and civilians
that they would be in Paris April list
It Is the worst April Fool that ever
tell to the lot of those two hounds OF
hell. 1t is awful to contemplate that
in their vain attempt to make good
their boast, that those two devils
have REDEEMED their hands with the
blood of nearly a million mOrtals, and
all they have gained is a few hundred
square miles of territory, more devas-
tation and ruin. Aye, those two mon
sters have AIDED more infamy to their
already inhuman souls, which with
their previous record of frightfulness
makes them stand alone as the sons
of all villainy, the fathers of all
crimes, the devils best friends and
Gods worst enemies. AS sure as
there is an Allwise Providence, just
so sure will those fends incarnate
get what's coming to them.

MONTFORT GIRL FOUND
PIECE OF HOT SHRAPNEL.

Montfort, Wis, June 18.-Miss
Gladys CrOnk, a former Montfort girl,
who is playing with theatrical troupe
IN Britain, is the heroine Of an inter
esting story that has found it's way
back to Montfort Miss Cronk left
MOntfort a few years ago and receiv-
ed her first musical training on the
trombone while a member Of the
Montfort Girls Band. The account of
the story follows:
When the air raid warning came
the manager Of a west side theatre,
which Miss CrOnk's company was
playing at, stepped out on the stage
and announced that all who liked
might stay in the theatre for shell
ter His last words were followed by
loud explosions of bombs
The people jumped up and started
for the doors. But the performers in
the musical act that had been inter
upted took a tighter hold on their in
struments and blared out in the Jig
giest ragtime music that they knew.
The audience stood still. The per-
formers marched into the aisles still
playing. Everyone cheered until the
/ sound of the cunning and bombing
was drowned out, for the raid was
now at it's height.
One of the girls, Miss Cronk, was
missing for a time She soon return
ed breathless and laughing carrying
something carefully in her handker-
chief. 1t was a piece Of shrapnel
that she picked up in the street "And
I got it while it was still hot, too,
she said proudly. Her words were
greeted by loud cheers from the aud
fence which was now crowding around
the girls.

LICK GERMANY FIRST.
By DR.. Frank Crane.

Peace is a grand thing I am a
pacifist Oh general principles. But
what would be the use Of peace now,
with horde of 100000 brutes, led
by bunch egotistic scoundrels,
stamping over the earth with hob
nailed boots? We've got to lick Ger
many before we can get any peace
that is tolerable.
OF those who believe in Socialism
I would ask, what's the good Of try
ing Socialism while Germany is loose?
Look at the Russians They threw
down their arms and extended the
friendly hand to the Huns, and smil-
ed, and. said, 'Now we'll all quit. See.
We begin" It was a most Christian
act. What was the answer? Ger
many kicked them in the face The
Germans invaded their territory,
burned their towns, killed their men,
robbed them, laughed at them, lied
to them, spread their pernicious prop
uganda amongst their people, and
Russia today is a seething madhOuse.
So just hold steady awhile on Social
ism. We've got to lick Germany first
OF those who demand a free Ireland
I would ask, What's the good of a
free Ireland with Germany ruling
England? Does Ireland want to
swap Lloyd George for the kaiser?
Sweden is starving. Holland and
Denmark are in straits. We'd like to
help them. But we've got to lick
Germany first We cannot aid the
Belgians to rebuild their houses and
get their people back from slavery,
until we lick Germany. We want
France, Italy, Serbia, ROumania, Po-
land and Armenia rescued from the
horror Of war, from hunger, want and
massacre. But we've got to lick
Germany first.
We'd like ocean travel made safe,
and commerce freed from piracy, but
we've got to lick Germany first. We
wish our soldier boys were back
/ home We need them Wives, moth
ers, sweethearts, fathers need them.
Farms and shops need them. But
we've got to lick Germany first
| Any way you turn, you find we've
| got to lick Germany first Whatever
reform you want, whatever nuisance
should be abated, we run up against
the same prime necessity. We've got
to lick Germany first. It's all com
ing out right. We shall some day
have peace on earth and good will to
men. But we've got to lick Germany
| first

A Novel Treatment,

Wherever there is a bay window one
invariably associates it with a window
seat. A departure from this is a broad
window shelf to hold here and there
a potted plant, or book or two. The
one drawback to this feature is that
one is too apt to clutter it with bric-a-
brac. If the broad expanse Of shelves
is kept clear this treatment is both
restful and decorative.

We have had the strange experience of a churchless sabbath-what has it taught us?
 We have been brought to a point of decision as to whether we shall follow the laws of sanitation and segregation, as suggested by our board of health, or disregard all natural laws of disease ana health and tempt God to perform a mir acle in the preservation of our health.
 When Satan tempted our. Savior to leap from the temple, quoting to Him the promise of God to Dear Him up," our Savior knew that it would not be a great CT demand on infinite power to bear him up" than to multiply the loaves and fishes or still the storm of Galiiee. but He declined to needlessly exploit Gods power before the people. Many Of us believe in the goodness of God and the power of God to do whatever is neces- sary to be done for His children and we do not discount our faith in Gods pow CT to work miracles when we for good reasons choose to follow Gods natural laws, rather than presume to tempt Him in a public exploit of our faith.
 Intelligent Christianity seeks to dis cover all of Gods natural laws of dls- ease and health and all the remedies de- posted in nature for our relief, and 1t is the duty of every intelligent follower of Jesus Christ to both observe these laws and to teach others to observe them For Christians to essay the task of exploiting faith by leaping from pin cIa of turning 'StOn6S 11lIO bread" handling poisonous serpents and exposing ones-self to death producing germs. is inconsistent both with the teaching and example of our Lord
 Christians do not discount their faith in the omnipotence of their God ny keep lng their bodies and homes and streets clean and nongerm producing; by uslhs care in traffic and travel, accepting vac cination, sprays and disintectants anu keeping Gods own laws of health ana life. Any other course is the fruit or ignorance and false teaching. There are great lessons to be learned by this ter rible disease which is visiting our coun- try. 'Tn the day of adversity consider. The acouiescence of the churches in the order of the board of health calls sls- nificant attention to the fact that It IS the duty of Christianity to join our CIVIL authorities in an effort to stamp out ois- ease of every kind and hereby save our people from the results of sinful neglect and ignorance.
 The church should by speech and prac- flee do everything possible to cooperate with and stimulate the board of healtn till all of Gods laws of cleanliness anu health shall be observed. We Will not stultify ourselves by violating Gou laws of health and then challenge Hiin to protect us in our wilful violation or law Much of our sickness, suffering and ,,ntimely death is due to ignorance and neglect of law.

FORMER PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT REGRETS WILSON'S ACTIONS

Oyster Bay, N. Y., October lo. Theodore Roosevelt dictated state ment at his home here tonight. in which he said:
 T regret greatly that President Wilson has entered into these nego- tiations, and I trust that they will be stopped We have announced that we will not submit to nego- tiated peace, and, under such condi- tions, to begin negotiations is bad faith with ourselves and our allies. Then. if negotiations are repudiated, we will give our enemies in their turn chance to impugn our good faith.
 Tn short. I regret the Presidents actions, because of it's effect upon our allies and our enemies, no less than upon our owI, people, for It can't help awakening an uneasy sus- picion that we are an> >untrustworthy friend and an irresolute foe.
 T earnestly hope that the Presi- dent will instantly send back word that we der>ond an unconditional sur render and inst we refuse to com pound a felony Ny discussing terms with the felons."

 lost the Christian home? Have not par ents turned over to the Sabbath school and church much of the work that should be done at home? Is not the family altar absolute and the religious training of the child in the home thing of the pas;? Is it not well for us to clcse our churches and places of amuse- ment occasionally and turn our people into their homes to teach them their neglect? This strange application may be Gods great call to the home to erect the altar for the homecoming boy ana strengthen the bulwarks of our national life. When we are called to worship at our home altars for two Sabpaths Tn a half century, we may discover that We have no home altar.
 At this time when war has made life cheap and taken much of the shock from ceath by natural process, is 1t not good for us to emphasize our regard for health and life?
 In this time, when practical religion has come tc the point in real service to OFT fellow men, may we not learn by one or two churchless Sabbaths that thele is a profound worship to Almighty God in the service we render to our homes. our children and our neighbors as well as that given in songs and ser mons at church?
 In the loss of our churches for two Sabbaths. may we not learn to appre- ciate more the blessed privilege so lightly valued of assembling weekly in the house O. our God?
