reached the student will find that the
 best of all his old ideals remains with
 him, purified and changed no doubt,
 but taking their right place. which is Q secondary one. His first ideal, if one
 can use such term for that which has
 truly no competitor is the Christ CT
 Truth, which reveals the truth about
 everything and the demonstration of it.
 There indeed is his secret place, where
 he retires from the clash and turmoil
 of the material world, to refresh himself
 with the reinsurance of Spirits abso- luteneSs, omnipreSence, and olnnl- activity.
 The general opinion about idealism 1 is that it is impractical and therefore useless as a guide in human events, but this is not true of true idealism, of Christian Science. That conscious
 ness which is constantly uplifted to the real, to the purity of Spirit, finds itself so alert, so clarified in perception, so invigorated, that. 1t gets a grasp Of affairs which is both powerful and wise in its dealings. In striking contra st to this, is the mind which allows itself i to be emasculated by dwelling n the false idealism which has emotioralism
 as it's basis. Such a mentality is gen. orally apathetic, slow of grasp and ! easily deluded.
 l Jesus of Nazareth was the great ! idealist, in fact, his idealism was the dominating fact of his being, No one
 ever lived who was quicker or more 1 vigorous in thought and action, and we ] know that 1t was at once recognized | that he spoke with authority, and lot
 as the scribes. That authority was Lot personal, it was based On Principle | and it attainable by anyone who hon. l estly endeavors to assimilate and dem l onstrate his teachings through the in- 1 struction of Christian Science which is the true idealism.

TODAY'S POEM By Edmund Vance Cooke

My wife remarked to me- Father A dog is terrible bother, And as for the Little Boy, He's tired of the brute, Like last years suit,
 Or a yesterdays worn-out toy. So I sent in a liner. telling Of how 1 was forced to be selling One thoroughbred monSrel cheap, And buyers came Hooking, Bell-ringing and knocking,
 And The Boy said never a peep. Then the fellow who came most often Began to weaken and soften Till he finally said. Its a sale. Your beastie is mine, For I'm likin' him fine.
 From his ear-tip down to his tail
  So went for the brute and found him. With two chubby arms around him And q tear wet facesin his wool. Yes, cheek to muzZle And nose to guZZle
 They lay. and my heart choked full. took word back to the buyer; T don't own a dog. I'm a liar, And I've filled you with liars dope, For the tailed cuss, He appears to own us,
 And he'll still keep us on--I hope.

Where The People
 May Have 8 Hearing
To the Editor of The Republican;

To the Editor of The Republican,: What will the American people say about the report of the meeting on the part of a company of soldiers on the Archangel front in Russia, as published in the press reports? Is it realized what that action may mean to the men? Is it understood that they may be shot for disobedience of orders? Yet that is exactly what can happen under military law. As soldiers those men are in the wrong, but they were citizens before they were soldiers, and as citizens they are in the right. We are not at war with Russia as a coun- try nor with any part or portion of the people of Russia. Therefore why should those men obey an order to move in armed opposition against portion of the people of Russia? They also being armed.
 Are we as a nation committing mili- tary murder, and if our men refuse to murder shal lthey be shot? It is time to speak. Wake up, everybody. If you sleep at the switch those boys may die. This, is a question of life and death.
 My son is in Siberia, what do you fathers say Do you want your boys home? Has our army any moral, legal or military business in either Russia or Siberia?
 They refused to move forward; are you with your sons or are you with the military law that says they may be shot for disobedience of orders :? You. mothers of soldiers, lay aside your work, leave the washing undone, neg feet the getting of the family meal. hurry before it is too late, call for the return of our and your boys. You, men of the Rotary club and of the chamber of commerce, now is the time to adopt resolutions. Do it now You men of the pulpit, will you talk for the life of those boys? This matter is serious and requires action. We ! have been told the troops are to be withdrawn when the weather per- inits. but we also read that both English and American troops as rein forcements have embarked for points l in northern Russia Troops are or dered forward by sled, why not order l them back and out by sled? i Ships loaded with trops can go to Russia, why not empty ships go bring l troops out of Russia? Speak quick | that company of men must not be court martialed. Neither must they be given a discharge without character, either of which is possible. Life or death 1 where do you stand? I am with that company of soldiers. If citizens theil action would be right.
 Bring back our army and may law and order under our constitution once again prevail.

Besides the method given for tint

means of colorlng matter dissolved in
water. there is The method of tinting
with gasoline and tube paints. BY
these means greater variety OF tints

through the hands and lifting 1t up

rinse 1t In two OF, three waters and

and see that the paint flows out easily
when the tube is squeezed. Manufac-
turers of paints provide many cOlors

A large china wash howl and tin
