BASIC PRINCIPLE is FAITH
Wn7Ie cid Character Built on II,
.>cctrl nc 20 W-*er in E."ther's
Magazine.

a man never marres the woman he
jokes about, and never jokes about the
woman he marries. If women followed
the same rule. marriage would be the
gamer. And if wives worried less
about the unborn and used more rea-
son about the children that are born,
a single generation would revolution
lie society.
The boys of today are Fathers in
the Making. The kind of fathers they
turn out to be will depend entirely
upon the influences that form their
characters as children.
have said the mans faith in wom-
an is stronger than woman's faith in
man. Do not forget that truth. But,
even when faith flies out of the win
dow, love may remain.
Keep this distinction between love
and faith clearly before you, because
the foundation of the home, and the
basis upon which child character is
built, is faith.
First, there is the faith of the hus-
hand and wife, each in the other.
Second, there is the faith of the
child in the mother.
Third, the faith of the child in the
father.
Fourth, the faith of parents in the
child.
Fifth, the faith of the child in the
true principles of life, and its own
duties and rights as a human being.
These five elementary influences de-
termine the character, and in the alb
sence of and other force greater, usual
ly remain the moving impulses Of the
individual all through life.-John Hor-
ace Lockwood, in Mothers Magazine.

HaWaiians Dying Out.

According to Prof. Vaughn Mac
Gaughey of the College of Hawaii, the
hawaiian race is rapidly becoming ex-
tinct. This disappearance of lone of
the finest physical types known in the
history of the human race" is due to
the introduction by white men Of al
cohol, plague, measles, leprosy, tuber-
culosis, pneumonia and the most ter
rible of blood diseases, none of these
having been known in Hawaii before
the advent of the white man.

ALLIES MAY WANT TO KNOW
Likely to Ask for Facts Concerning
Ccnd lion Of the Famous Ger
mar War Chest.

In the days before the war the castle
of Spandau, some eight miles north
west of Berlin, was famous as the of
fetal repository of the German war
chest. In the julius tower of the cas-
tie was stored some 120,000,000 marks
in gold. the money being part of the
war indemnity paid by France in 1871.
There it was kept "for the purpose of
immediate use in case of war;" What
happened to this gold reserve in 1914
is not known, but an interesting side
light is thrown on the great treasure
chest by the account which has just
come to hand from Berlin describing
how some 100000 lei was recently
distracted from the "citadel at Span
dau," during the Disturbances which
followed the signing of the arnistice.
The money, which was part of the
amount hurriedly removed from Rou-
mania when that country was evacu-
ated, was lodged in the citadel "be-
cause there was no room for it in the
julius tower" Now, what the outside
world is interested to know is: Was
this ROumanian money crowded out
Of the julius tower because the julius
tower was already filled to overflow
ing with specie? To be sure it was a
large sum that claimed admission, no
less than 5OO,OOO,OOO lei, but then any
one who knows the Julius tower knows
that 1t is large place.

Cut Metal With Smooth Disks.

Not so very long ago the discovery
was made that metals could be sawed
easier and quicker with rapidly revolv-
ing smooth disks of steel than with
toothed circular saws. 1t was found
that the cutting was done by the heat
generated by the friction Of the edge
of the disk against the metal. The
metal is melted at the point of con.
tact while the steel of the disk, being
cooled by the air, does not reach the
melting point. The disks need nc
sharpening and do not wear out SC
quickly as the toothed saws heretofore
used for cutting metal. The faster the
disk revolves, the greater the amount
of heat generated and the quicker the
job.-Popular Science Monthly.

Many Have Ruined Health.

"The greater proportion of people
are born healthy and their way OF
living makes them SICK" says a bulle-
tin of the Indiana state board OF
health. "The people of America are
only so per cent efficient on account
of i'll health and disease. Apparently
our population is 1OOOOO,OOO; actually
1t is only 100000. This is the re-
suit of wrong feeding, cranky immod,
Grafton, not enough air and sunshine
impure and insufficient water drink
ing; alcohol, caffein and nicotin addic
ton, and our awful and absurd use OF
drugs and patent medicines"

Roosevelt at Panama,

President Roosevelt visited Panama
in 1906, and it was the first time a
president of the United States found
it advisable to step on territory not
beneath the flag of the United States.
The custom was that the president
should not leave the country during
his term of office, but there is no law
about it. President Roosevelt went TO
Panama on this occasion to visit and
inspect the site of the Panama canal.
He did not visit Europe during his
term of office, but at its close on re-
turning from his hunting trip in AT
RIGA.

Oil and HeIium in Canada.

Canadian commercial enterprise is
again before the British public in the
form of two announcements, the iirst
being that exploitation of the oil fields
of Western Canada on large scale
is in contemplation.
The second announcement refers to
the discovery in large quantities in
Western Canada of helium, the light
est known gas after hydrogen, which
Is more suitable than the latter for
filling airship envelopes, as it is nom
infiammable and nonexplosive.

ALBANY, Oct. 24.--Gov. Smith refused
to-day the request of the Grand Jury
which started to investigate the recent
marlborough strike that he designate
some one to take the place of District
Attorney Edward Swami In advising II
and conducting the examination of wit
nesses before the Grand Jury.
The Governor sent a letter to Ray

Jury does not trust District Attorney
Swami II has the power to deliberate
without him or any Of his assistants in
the room. and could In that case examine
any witnesses In any manner desired
and has the power to return any indict-
ments found as result of such an in
vestigation.
II have no power to appoint an As
sistant District Attorney or to designate
an advisor to your Grand Jury" said
the Governor. THE only power that I
have is that given to me by section 81
OF the Executive law to require the
Acknowledgement to attend In person or
by one of his deputies any term of the
supreme Court or appear before the
Grand Jury thereof for the purpose OF
managing or conducting in such court
or before such jury such criminal ac-
lions or proceedings as shall be specified
In such requirements.
SHOULD I execise the power given me
by this law the effect, OF course, would
be to supersede the District Attorney.
This power has seldom been exercised
by the Governor and usually only in ex-
IRENE cases. In my judgment 1t should
be exercised with extreme caution and
only when the Governor is satisfied be-
yond question that the interests of the
public demand such exercise. and when
the Governor is satisfied beyond question
that the District Attorney is either dis
qualified or is wilfully neglecting to per-
form his duty, or Is guilty of corrupt or
illegal conduct
>'Holding these views I deemed 1t my
duty to and l did submit to Judge
Swami, the District Attorney Of the
county, the letter containing your re-
quest and your accusations against him
