When the can or jar is full, render
it (by boiIing) and you will obtain
enough clear grease to make big
batch Of dandy soap, cheaper and
purer than any you can buy.
With Grease and Red Devil Lye
You will find home soap-making
SO easy and economical that il will
be genuine pleasure. On the
label Of every can of Red Devil
I've are complete directions for
making soap by the cold process
or by boiling.
Anybody Can Make Soap

grease. Furthermore, soap making
at home pays big because you buy
nothing but Red Devil Lye the
other ingredients are actually saved
out of the waste that you have
been throwing away. You will thank

War Junk Made Useful

The sale by the War department of more
than $236000,000 worth of surplus material at
price representing about SO per cent of the
original cost, shows remarkable public economy.
1t is easy enough to buy war supplies but
decidedly different matter to dispose of them
advantageously under peace conditions. AS it
is, unused munitions of certain kind must
necessarily represent total waste, but copper
and brass material, chemicals. oil, lumber, COM
missary supplies, etc, remain merchantable, and
mean substantial reduction of the country's
enormous war bill.
The sale of hand grenades for conversion
into dime savings banks illustrates the curious
uses to which discarded implements of war can
be put. The millions of brass cartridge cases
may meet some demand as art novelties. The
news that steamship has brought cargo of
German helmets to Wales for fabrication into
knives, forks and spoons reveals the infinite
possibilities of transferring the junk of war
into the utensils of peace.
Never before has war provided such oppor-
tunities for beating swords into ploughshares.
The most destructive of all wars may, in fact,
have the opposite distinction also of furnishing
more material than any other for reclamation
and conversion into objects of use and senti-
ment-New York World.

SOUTH SEA FANCIES.

I am restless as lover, when the wind Is
off the sea;
Then the booming of the breakers on far
islands call to me,
Then seagoing freighters call me. to come
up and go away
Where the purple sea born night is chang
ing to the tawny day.
And to strange and far-off islands where
the wide lagoons are calm,
And are copper coiored women weaving
mats beneath palm.
am sure that OF my forebears many OF
them knew the sea,
And the wildness Of their living has sent
down a strain to me;
And I'd rather than be coy in comfy
inglenook.
With the weather shut out from me, and
my nose stuck in book.
Be out on. the slanting deck when the
storm rides the night at sea.
And the ship is like a stallion fighting
fiercely to be free.
When the wind is from the sea and brings
the scent of sea born things,
Then / see the albatross asleep upon his
widespread wings.
And l see the rushing pillows! And |
y want to go and ride.
IN the very widest Of them. to the big
worlds other side:
And i want to see the maidens weaving
mats beneath the trees
All, want to 60 the pathways all across
And I want to trade In silks. and In the
spices of the East,
And I want to sit In with them when the
stranger peoples feast,
And / want to laugh loud with them, and
wear gold rings In my ears
And go back generations and wipe out
the humdrum years,
And be such as my forefathers used to
be. and spread my sail.
And laugh at the reaching waters. and
laugh down the bowling gale

Saving Clause of Sense Of Humor.

The value of a cheerful disposition could not
be better exemplfed than it was in former
President Taft during his recent visit here. On
this occasion his beaming countenance con-
stantly radiated good will His clear eyes
twinkled with humor. That funny, happy little
chuckle was always frisking about down in his
throat ready to gurgle. up to the top and shake
his big body into an ecstacy of contagious
mirth. spaller man would have been
weighed down with his responsibilities, bowed
with the burden of possible failure, pompous
beneath load of artificial dignity.
Mr.. Taft happily conceived himself in the
role of travelling Snowman. He dubbed with
fun as he referred to the galaxy OF "highbrows"
who accompanied him as "Taft's Travelling
Troup of Truthful and Trustworthy Takers"
Moral Waxworks Exhibition" in mind when he
named his SHOW"
After reading the letters of petroleum v.
Nasty" humorist of that day, Abraham Lin
coin remarked IF Petroleum would come to
Washington and teach me how to write like
that, I'd propose to swap places with him."
No man can go far in these strenuous days
without real sense of humor. A Sense of
humor" does not consist Of merely telling jokes.
1t consists rather in the possession of poise and
a recognition of the relative value of things.
The mind of man who possesses this quality
is filled with the majesty of calmness, no matter
how portentous the affairs in which he is en-
gagged or how much depends on their outcome.
Little men in Lncoln's time could not I'm
derstand how he could take time" to tell a
funny story when great questions were being
discussed. Their pompous dignity was out
ragged by his departure from the beaten path of
-as-they-should-b
Mr.. Taft's cheerfulness inspires confidence,
just as the same quality in Napoleon inspired
confidence to his troops at many hard-fought
battle. Pompous dignity and ominous solemnity
only Legets doubt. Tafts cheerfulness is con-
tagious. 1t raises the same quality in those who
hear him.
This cheerfulness is the natural offspring of
ripe experience, reason and common sense. 1t
beas witness to the fact that its possessor is
the master Of the powers of his mind and the
faculties of his soul, that his imagination is
clear, his judgment undisturbed, his temper even
and unruf1ed. incidentally, this very cheer
fulness which has such good effect on others,
reacts also for the health and happiness of its
possessor.

BOOST THE BOY SCOUTS.

Boy Scout Week, as the present week has
been designated, offers Omaha an opportunity
to give real impetus to the greatest boy
organization which has ever been developed.
Scouting is we'll past fife experimental stage
and has adequately demonstrated its value.
The splendid ethical ideals scoutcraft in
culcates, the fine physical development which it
brings, and the cleanness of mind and soul
which are its inevitable product, are worth in
finitely more to the community than the cost
in time and money that will be involved in
giving the boys that, which through their
leaders they are asking
Boy Scout Week should result in the enroll
ment OF many hundreds of new recruits in
Omaha. 1t should result in the raising of
fund sufficiently large to make the city organiza-
ton secure in its plans. 1t should result in
bringing into the movement in this city large
number of new leaders and supporters
Success in the Scout movement is largely
matter of leadership. A scoutmaster needs no
magic skill. He does need common sense and
real sympathy with the problems Of boyhood.
Every one can not be a scoutmaster, but there
are many qualified for the work who should
discover themselves and offer their services.
Those who can do no more can at least become
sustaining members and enjoy the satisfaction
OF helping this fine work along. a. :.
