Nothing to me shall come

Neither the power of wealth.
Neither the crown of love;
Nothing that life holds high
TO me shall be a part
Unless ! have earned IL by
The pure dreams of my heart.
No life gets life at best
That has not of it's own
Given Mt its holiest crest
Service of highest tone.
The way you feel at mornings start
Is partly what you know
And partly what falls on your heart
From Naures wonder glow.

Impeachment of Governor.
Springfield Republican,

Impeachment Of Governor W. L..
Harding of Iowa has been recommended
by the house judiciary committee for
malfeasanee in Office and gross abuse
of power, )" the specific offense alleged
being the pardon of a convict without
reference to the board of parole and
improperly on the merits of the case.
The governor charges politics, but there
are several ugly stories about him
which are likely to be aired when the
matter comes Up in the legislature.
There have been few cases of actual
Impeachment of American governors,
the impeachment of Gov. Sulzer of New
York being the best-remembered case
in recent years.
1t is disquieting, to say the least, to
hear charges against the Iowa govern

Trained Young Women for French
Social Visitors.
PARIS, March 81 Correspondence of
The Associated Press -" Save the ba-
bies,'' is the message that has been ia
ken into the remote towns and villages
of France by the children S bureau of
the American Red Cross
France is considered second to none
in scientific knowledge of infant well
fare; but hitherto that knowledge has
been largely confined to her medical
schools, her hospitals, and to the minds
of her child specialists. 1t needed to
be taken right into the homes if France
was to save her coming generation.
To combat ignorance of the princi-
pies of child hygiene on the part of
French mothers, to popularize fresh air
and clean teeth, to preach the truth
that tuberculosis is preventable, to en-
courage breast feeding and sensible
clothing for infants, was the task the
American Red Cross set itself TO per-
| form II months ago
The result is, as the bureau statistics
show, that 250,00 French children have
| directly benefited by the efforts of this
section of the American Red Cross.
1t organized four great expositions
| in four of the busiest cities of France:
Lyons, Marseilles, st. Etienne and Tou-
| louise. Three hundred thousand per
sons went through the turnstiles to
these shows, and they took home every
piece of the child welfare literature
| that they could obtain.
Travelling expositions next went in
to Is French departments They gave
simple lectures and demonstrations with
life-size baby doll in the town hall
or the market place, and with the aid
of their own cinema and a supply of
picture cards and colored posters told
the mothers how the health and wei
fare of their offspring might be pro
noted. Nearly 100000 pieces OF
child welfare propaganda were thu,
distributed, with the gratifying result
that in many instances mothers re
turned to the show to tell that they
had benefited by this or that piece o
advice given by "les Amereains.'
Finally. the bureau has trained young
Frenchwomen as social visitors, anC
sent IS of them out among their OWL
people In Lyons, Marseilles, Corbeil
Blois, st. Etienne and Paris they ar,
doing intelligent and constructive so
cial work, beginning at the home itself
where they are endeavoring to instil
modern methods of child hygiene anC
