No Wonder.

At a recent county institute in Indi.
ana one of the teachers made an an
nouncement. At the close she said {:
eff any one has any objections to this
plan of mine let him do as the Bible
says: Either speak now or hold his
peace forever"
A little teacher, whose years in the
schoolroom numbered 81, smiled slight
ly as she turned to the person next her.
''That isn't in the Bible, is it?" she
asked, and then finished: "It does
sound familiar, but not exactly as if it
came from that book"
This person laughed. "Why, that's
from the wedding ceremony" she re-
piled.
The little teacher was quick to re-
tort: mo wonder none of us here
recognized it then" she laughed.

AT REST BENEATH FLOWERS
Beautiful Conception of "Garden Of
the Brave" Above the Heroic
Dead in France.

That was a beautiful and moving
conception of Sir John Fraser's spoken
at the Pilgrims luncheon that the buri-
i al lands of the war in France should
Ne made gardens of flowers. In his
~ Squent words:
F.a would like to See-and l do see
{y3ometimes in my vision-the flowers
of America growing over where lie so
many of your gallant sons.
81 know there will be mighty
stretches of fleur-de-lis marking the
sleeping place of 100000 brave
Frenchmen. l would like to see the
blooms of Belgium nodding over the
graves where brave Belgians sleep, and
I know that out there l would like to
see mighty avenue of maple trees,
all glorious with their crimson and
with their gold, telling the place where
the Canadians rest, and there will be
mighty masses of the wonderful Aus
tralian waffle showing where the Aus
tralians are sleeping; yes, and know
that out there, too, will be great
sheaves of green, the shamrock cover
let for the brave Irish; and there will
be roses everywhere, the white rose
and red rose, the roses Of Old England,
Of Lancaster and of York, telling
where 100000 brave Englishmen lie.
ss4"Perhaps out in that Garden of the
4 Brave would come across stretches Of
: heather, beautiful gold-purple heather.
II wOuId know there were ScOtSmen
buried there. There would be playing
Il would hear the sound Of the pipes,
for the pipes always play where dead
Scotch soldiers lie; that is the vision
that comes to me-"
There would be many American SYM
bols to join the goldenrod,
California peoples, the wild rose,
among the rest. Certainly no more
glorious and fitting memorial could be
imagined than such fields Of mingled
beauty.-New York Tribune.

Couldn't Find Him.

q gentleman to repeat anything when
he speaks to them. So when a busy
clerk said, "Boy, sign light" meaning
to turn on the lights in the front of
the building, the boy rushed to the
counter. picked up tray with card
on it and went through the lobby and
dining room crying:
'sMr. Signlight, Mr.. Signlight. Call

He reported that ''Mr. Signlight'

Soldiers Rarions Costly,

According to, figures given out by
General Smith Of the quartermaster's
department, 1t costs almost three times
as much to feed an American soldier
today as it did in the Spanish war.
The cost in 1898 was 1881 cents day.
Now 1t is so cents. The ration is a
fixed standard, and accordingly the
cost figures have mounted steadily in
recent years.

On the other hand, great body of

will have to close his shop for lack of
funds and banking facilities.
2. If an employe of a shop deals in

the man. His name shall be published
in the newspapers so that he will not
be able to find employment else
where.
3. If wealthy man be discovered

5. If damage is done to opium

Tests Show Gasoline Substitute
is Satisfactory.

With the passing of the censorship
governing publication OF facts per-
tanning to certain war activities
comes detailed information relative
to tests of Liberty fuel conducted by
the war department and bureau of
standards.
As result of these tests the new
fuel is reported to be satisfactory in
every respect as a substitute for gas
oline. The cost Of manufacture is said
to be 40 per cent lower than the cost
of gasoline while the power produced
is greater.
The manufacture of the new fuel
involves a still process. The ingredi-
ents used are described as commodi-
ties which are now drug on the mar
ket. These can be obtained in sufii-
cient quantities to assure an ample
supply of the gasoline substitute.
The formula is secret held by the
inventor and the war department.
Liberty fuel is described as being
odorless and tasteless. The report
states that its combustible products
produce cooler effect than gasoline
and that it is non-corrosiye. 1t does
not give out scot or carbon and starts
the motor more readily than the fuel
it is expected to replace.
The quality and specific gravity
of the new fuel are chlngeable at
will. 1t will ignite only from a spark
of fame. No special apparatus is re-
quired either IN the engine or the
carbureter to attain the desired re-
suits,
Practical tests OF the Liberty fuel
were conducted by army officers with
the aid Of q Garford three and one
half ton truck. According to the Of
fetal report this truck carrying a
load averaged l0.4 miles per gallon
with Liberty fuel over distance OF
232miles. The route lay through the
mountains of the Cumberland dis
trict.
The truck used two gallons of
water in. the radiator and consumed
two and one-half quarts Of lubrica-
ting oil, an average OF 1851 miles
