Good That Is Evil Spoken OF.

Our good is often evil spoken Of
because OF our thoughtlessness.. The
woman who looked askance at a
stranger who. had been shown into
her pew did not really mean to hurt
that strangers feelings. to send her
away from church that day with the
Inward resolution never again to en-
ter Its doors, but such was the effect
of her lack Of thought. Our good
is often evil spoken Of because of the
unnecessary harshness of our man
ner. 1t is an oft.repeated excuse Of
offenders Of this kind. II was born
with an unfortunate disposition;
am brusque. and have no fineness Of
touch; 1t is hereditary" This Is an
attempt to dodge responsibility, to
transfer the censure to our ancestors
who cannot defend themselves.
Harshness Of manner may be tenn
peramental, but 1t is hardly constitu-
tional. 1t is an ungraclous and harm
full habit, and 1t can be cured.

HENRY FORD'S GREAT
SUBMARINE FIGHTER

Detroit, Jan. S.--,A long, narrow
wedge, with a steel-encased nose OF
solid concrete tapered to knife-like
edge, forming a considerable part OF
its total length of 204 feet, and de-
clared to be capable OF crushing any
submarine-such is the Eagle, built
by Henry Ford and designed orig
inally to help rid the seas of the
menace of the German U-boats.
Contrary to popular belief the
Eagle is not motor boat, but an
oil-burning, steam turbine-driven
craft, with cruising radius Of
5000 miles. The Eagle is not a
thing of beauty; beauty was not con-
templated in its construction. 1t is
long. guant weapon of war, OF all
steel construction with the exception
of the concrete nose.
Another popular impression that
has been shattered is an idea that
the Eagle boat is equipped with tor
pedo tubes. The submarine chaser
was not intended to combat the ma
jor instrument OF German ruthless
ness with its own weapons. 1t was
designed to depend rather upon its
manoeuvering qualities, its powerful
light guns, and a new American in
vention for directing its fire at un-
seen objects.
Its crew including operating and
fighting complement numbers ap-
proximately so men.
To the observer, the first impress
sion Of the Eagle boat is one OF Won
der that a craft so narrow can pos
sess buoyancy sufficient to keep it
upright in heavy seas. Despite its
length of more than an average city
block, the craft has beam of only
% feet, and draws when fully equip
ped less than 10 feet of water.
Its sea-worthiness, has been DEM
onstrated in the official trials, ac-
cording to reports to the navy de-
partment.
While 1t is admitted the Eagle
does not make the speed OF the aver
age destroyer. 1t is claimed that it
can outdistance most submarines

Influence.

The world is only just beginning to
understand the extent to which lndi-
viduals and nations may be and have
been swayed by silent mental lnflu-
ence. A man prefers, Of course, to be-
lieve that he Is the master of his own
conclusions and the arbiter Of his
own conduct; but let anyone ask him
self how he arrived at any given con-
clusion or decided upon certain line
Of conduct, and unless he can own to
an intelligent conception of divine
principle upon which he relies fbr
guidance, he will have to admit If he
is equal to the analysis that he has
been swayed throughout his career by
influences not his own.-Christlan Sci

Onions a Oisinfeetant.

Much has been said about the vir-
tues Of the onion, but few know Of its
use as disinfectant.
An onion cut In half and set In a
room will attract to itself all manner
of germs, leaving the air sweet and
pure; 1t is therefore most valuable in
cases of infection. You should take
care. however, to burn the onion after
ward.
No part Of an onion should ever
be used for domestic purposes after
having been allowed to lie about over
night. The eating of raw onions is a
great personal protective In time Of

MADE THE WORD MEAN MUCH
All the English Pretty Bulgarian un-
derstood was "london," but She
Gave u Decided Expression.

II Is curious that the name London
u more generally known the world
over than the name England Is. In
commercial circles London" stands
ror most articles Of English manufac-
ture. In all the East II represents ma
non. The author OF "Under the Red
Crescent" who was surgeon of the
Turkish army In 1877, found that in
the near Fast, no farther away than
Bulgaria. London" served to identify
him. 1t did even more than that
In conversational way, as he tells us
tn his book.
My first landlord-who was land
lord In name only. for OF course I
never paid him any rent-was Bull
garian. he says, and his daughter was
one Of the few pretty women that I
ever saw in Bulgaria. Conversation
with her, however. was restricted by
our ignorance Of each others Ian
guage, for knew scarcely any Bull
garian, and the only word Of English
that she could say was London"
Whenever saw that girl she would
show her white teeth with a charming
smile, flash her big, black eyes, and
with beautiful lrrelevance calculate:
"Tondon!"
Whether she knew what London
meant I cannot say. but her limited
vocabulary expressed more in its way
than the gushing phrases Of many more
brilliant takers.
When she said London" with a
bright air Of welcome and a frank
smile as came home at night tired
out with my days work. knew that
she meant Good evening. doctorl
hope you haven't had a very hard day
today; and see. here is your toast
and coffee ready"
When she uttered the word with
backward turn Of the head and with
pretty glance as she passed out Of
the door. 1t was very evident that she
was really saying: "Good night now,
doctor! Pleasant dreams to you, and

In the morning."-Youth's Compan-

that there was little buying in the field
this season Polesweat damage is suf-

there would be sharp difference of
opinion between growers and buyers
when it came to accepting deliveries of
tobacco in the bundle. Moreover, such
disagreements are inevitable where to-
