BIRTHDAY OF TWO
 GREATEST MEN OF THE
 NINETEENTH CENTURY

It is g. remarkable coincidence that the two greatest men of the nine teenth century-or so most English speaking people would agree - were born on the same day. Abraham Lincoln and Charles Robert Darwin were born on Feb. F, 1909, and, al though both have long since ceased their earthly labors, they have left behind them an influence more po- tent and powerful than that of most living men.
 Lincoln, "the greatest figure of the f1ercest civil war, yet the gentlest memory of our world" the back woodsman and country lawyer, was ridiculed as an "uncouth savage" by the fashionables of Washington society. Scorn and vituperation were heaped upon him, but his patience and his charity and his sense Of hu- nor never failed him. He fulfilled his mission, and the world was only beginning to realize his sublime greatness when the bullet of an as- sassin cut short his career. His birthday will be celebrated as a legal holiday in many Northern states to- day, and perhaps the time will come when the South, too, will honor his memory, for had he survived, the era of reconstruction would undoubt- edly have been far less severe upon the South.
 Darwin, reared in the atmosphere of culture, had every incentive to conservatism. Instead he became the arch iconoclast of all time. His Origin of Species by Means of Nat ural Selection" upset thousands of theories, scientific. and religious For years the author was reviled and con- demned and denounced and his theory was scoffed at. but gradually 1t has won the acceptance of the thinking world. Based on the pa tient and painstaktns investigations of many years, the Darwinian theory has withstood the assaults directed against 1t, and the labors of other investigators in the same line have only served to strengethen it. Icon oclastic as were the effects of his work. they were not so by intention. Darwin sought only the truth, and

Difficult to Reconcile
 Labor Interests
(Continued from Page One


 Meetings are going on today as they have almost continuously during the last few days, between men who have come to Paris at the call of President Wilson and the premiers to deal with great financial problems arising out of the war. Every delegation admits the gravity of the problems presented and the absolute necessity for their settlement, if the world is to be saved from universal bankruptcy. In no place is it regarded as so evident that there must be the fullest and most cordial corporation between the na- tions now represented at the confer ence as in the effort to restore the stability of currency, reduce prices to & reasonable level, get rid of super fiuous issues of war paper, prevent further excessive fluctuations of ex- change and regulate the rates of in- terest on, and the amount of, bonds to be issued.
 Already initial steps have been taken to commit the Peace Confer ence to the adoption of great inter natioral pooling system of debts, which shall include all neutral na- tions, whether they wish to or not. This will meet with the most deter mined resistance from the American delegates, who feel that America did her full share in aiding the Allies by furnishing troops and almost unlin1it- ed supplies of money and material They are understood to be quite will 1 ing to rid France of the nightmare of German power in extending further | credits to permit France to rehabili- tate her industries and enable her, and Belgium as well, to hold her own | in the worlds markets but they l thoroughly appreciate the fact that 1t is beyond their power to commit their country to participation in any monetary credit system with Euro pean powers. They also feel that some of these countries have been derelict in not imposing, as the United States and Geat Britain did additional taxes upon their own peo- pie during the war to meet, at leas in part, their obligations, instead of calculating upon reimbursement from indemnities to be collected from the enemy.

 Despite the certainty of Herr Eoerts election, the theatre was crowded be- ;yond anything previously seen since Fthe opening of the National Assem- bly.
 A voting by ballot caused confusion as the delegates struggled along the narrow aisles. Great crowds massed outside during the session, waiting patiently in the cold for a chance to see the new president when he left the building which he did immediately after a very brief speech Of accept ance. He smilingly acknowledged the ovation given him.

7YPHUS FEVER
 RACES IN RUSSIA
Dead Pile Up Faster Than Can Be Handled By Au- thorities, and Disease and Starvation is Rampant Throughout Country.

Vladivostok, January 12.-(Corres- pondence of the Associated Press)- There are approximately 25,000 cases of typhus in Ekaterinberg, Che1ia- binsk, and Omsk, according to Major Jack Reifsnider, who has just re- turned from a two months trip Tn charge of a Red Cross relief train. Russian authorities, as well as the American Red Cross are doing their best to check the spread of the dis ease, but In view of the overcrowd- ed conditions in all cities and towns, their task Is desperate. An average of ten new cases daily are being taken from the railway station in Ekaterinburg where refugees, specula- tors and homeless people generally are packed together.
 Diseases starvation and the rigor- GUS climate, beside the sporadic fight ing along. the western front, pile up the dead faster than they can be dis posed of. Grave digging in the frog en ground is next to impossible. The bodies are loaded into cars and haul ed out on the line for disposition. Be- side Dr. R. B. Teuslers Red Cross train in the yards at Ekaterinburg lay for days a train partly made up of carloads of bodies awaiting ship ment.
 A 450-bed hospital established by the Red Cross in Tiumen is well filled and is doing a great service to the af- fected population. In spite of efforts to keep free from typhus cases, one l occasionally develops. Typhus pa 1 tients are removed, as soon as the 1 symptoms develop, to Russian iso, | Ia ton hospital. It was in this hos 1 pital that the American nurse, Grace | McBride, died of typhus.
 A Russian typhus hospital In IGkat- cr!nburg contained hundreds of pa | tients with practically no sanitary
 arrangements for caring for them

The poisons in man are taken care of, if man will do his part.

 The National Assembly adjourned until Thursday. Tomorrow will be spent in preparing a program and definitely constituting a new cabinet. Today's meeting was opened, as usual with the reading of telegrams from all parts of Germany and Austria, each of which brought cheers. The joining of Germany and Austria, when mentioned, received shouts of acquiescence, while the armistice conditions and the blockade were de- nounced. There was unanimous ap- proval when a message from the Wuerttemburg legislature was read, protesting against the armistice con- ditlons and predicting future wars if peace is signed on their basis.

It takes a good knife, with a keen edge, to get away with a steak nowadays. A happy, hopeful disposition will not do it. And cutting remarks will not help, either.
 Your marketman looks well to his cutlery. His customers would run miles from his shop if he tried to use a knife like those which are in most homes.
 If you stop to think about it, you need better cutlery than ever before to keep smiling while you are carving. That's why we keep only the best here.
