Substituting for the Kaiser.

With Hollweg. Hindenburg and~the former
kaisers younger sons all offering themselves
the goats for the former government the
martyr business in Germany is being rather
overdone. The crown prince, however, is not
competing. He says they may take him dead,
but never alive Probably he has one OF those
tried and trusty ropes hanging within con-
venient reach.
Those who are urging that they be pun
ished in place of the former kaiser are getting
a little notoriety at bargain prices. They know
full well that their offers will be rejected and
therefore there is no risk. Anyway. if they
have done anything to make them personally
liable under international law, they may be
reasonably certain of having their cases at
tended to later.
AS for trying to shift the responsibility
everybody knows who would have claimed the
credit if German arms had been victorious and
who would have entered Paris, London and
perhaps Washington at the head of the Hun
hordes. Only the Omnipotent would have been
permitted to share the glory and the portion
would not have been overly large, at that.
He who confidently expected to claim the
glory should be forced to accept the re-
sponsibility.

Life Is Life.

In the pleasant childhood hours,
filed with fairy dreams and dow
ers, little reck the kids ct play of
the long and lonely way that will
face them when they're old and have
lost the days of gold. Little think
they of the toll in life's hard and
stony soil, little of the jolts and
jars, little of the hurts and scars
that will turn their locks to gray
when they've passed the time OF
play. Life is Just a narrow vale
where we strive, and win or fail,
where we chase a gilded prize that
dissoIves before our eyes. where we
fall, each 40 winks, lodging phan-
toms, fears and jinx. Full of fan
cies and of lore, full of tiresome
cranks that bore, full of faVors that
have strings, full of roses that have
stings, full of golden dreams that
stall; life is-well, just life, that's
all. Just a little faith and hope,
Just a journey up the slope. just a
little sun and rain, just a little Joy
and pain. just a little love and
strife, just one ansWer-life is life.

How to Get Along with Poison Ivy.

How to Get Along with Poison Ivy,
Poison, climbing or three-leaved
ivy grows in woods and fields, par
ticularly along fences, throughout
the country, towering in June
When the leaves are broken a
milky juice exudes, which turns
dark after short exposure to the
air and stains clothing with a stain
difficult to remove,
Certain persons seem to be i'm
mune to poison ivy, handling it
even rubbing it on the skin with
impunity. Most persons are mod
erately susceptible, developing a
skin Inflammation resembling cry.
sipelas, with much itching, burn
ing, redness, swelling and blister
ing, when accidentally coming in
contact with poisol ivy. A few
persons are representative, suffer
ing skin irritation merely from
passing several feet from the ivy
The latter effect is due to an en-
anation of a volatile irritant from
the ivy, not to pollen.
A harmless three-leaved shrub
called Ptelea trifoliata. is often
mistaken for poison ivy, but its
leaflets are all sessile (attached by
broad basel, whereas ivy Leaflets
are more or less stalked.
Since the irritant principle is
acid, alkalies should be applied to
the skin for relief. One of the best
applications for poison ivy skin in
Illumination is saleratus (sodium
bicarbonate, soda), which may be
used as a solution Tablespoonful
to cupful of water) to keep gauze
or muslin dressings or bandages
constantly wet. Soap is alkaline
and one of the best protectives to
apply to the exposed parts Of the
skin before going to poison ivy is
lather. Numerous rinsings of thu
exposed or affected parts of the
skin with soapy water will often
prevent skin Inflammation or di-
minish its severity after exposure
to poison ivy; or a tablespoonful
OF saleratus in pint of water may
be used instead.
In opening blisters great care
must be taken to prevent the fluid
from touching the surrounding
skin.
Neither antiseptic chemicals nor
internal remedies are required.
For the itching or burning, Gala
mine lotion is good: Two tea
spoonfuis each OF glycerin and
borax; half an ounce each of DOW
dered zinc oxide and powdered cal
anime. and enough lime water to
fill a half pint bottle. To this maS
be added, If itching is intense, 80
drops of carbo1ic acid. The lotion
may be applied as often as desired,
without rubbing.
