FORCED TO OBSERVE SABBATH
Church Attendance, untfl Comparative ly Recent Times, Was coapul-
 sorry in Great Britain.

Numerous laws In this country, Can- acts of work and play on Sunday, but not since the lapse of the blue laws" of colonial days have Americans been forced by legislation to go to church on the Sabbath, an exchange says, In England, however, it was not until the middle of the last century, during the reign. of Queen Victoria, that all pen alties for nonattendance at religious services were abolished. Some unusual incidents attended the enforcement of the regulations, particularly upon the Hebrews.
 They were not released from the pro- visions of the law until 1871 and multi tudes of th%m were prosecuted for in- sisting upon observing their own Sab- bath. In the thirteenth century, it is recorded, a Jew of Tewkesbury fell in- to d sewer on a Saturday. Although almost submerged, he would not permit himself to be drawn out, believing that to do so would be to violate the sancti. ty of the holy day. On the following morning he was quite ready to be re- moved from his perilous plight, but the authorities, out of reverence for the Christian Sabbath, would not permit the unfortunate man to be rescued un- til after sunrise on Monday, when he was found to be dead.
 As late as 1880 there were per- sons in English prisons whose only crime was refusal to attend divine serv- ice. One of them was young man who had been convicted at the insti- gation of his own mother, who appear ed against him. In 1877 Sir Montague Burgoyne was haled into court to ex- plain why he had neglected his relig- ious duties. Rigid Sunday observance in England began during the reign of Edgar, in the tenth century, when the Sabbath day was ordained to be kept holy from three o'clock on Saturday afternoon until sunrise on Monday. The most innocent actions were con- demned, and death was the extreme penalty for continued violation of the law. About three centuries ago parlia- ment passed a law imposing fine of one shilling for remaining away from church on Sunday, unless some good excuse was forthcoming. This act re- mained in effect until comparatively recent times, and inability or unwilling ness to pay the fine resulted in pris- on sentence.

Takina the Next Census.

The government takes stock of its resources this year. July l, 1919, be- gins the next decennial census of the population and industries of the Unit cd States. It comes fittingly at an inn portant epoch in the nations destiny and at time when we are launching upon a new era of expansion and for eign interest, Thomas R. Logan says in Leslie's. Our statesmen and stu dents will be deeply concerned in the data accumulated as to the value of our industries as well as to their ex- tent. It will be a greatly energized and strengthened America which the new census taker will find. He will observe and record the effects of the war upon our industrial life. He will report also the exact number of our citizens by races and ages. It will be possible to determine how far General Crowder's draft registration fell short Of the actual number of population of draft age. The last census showed 9S,781, 1924 population. Guesses as to the present population range from 105,- UOC,000 to as high as 112OOO,OO0. h. roads of the war, of influenza, without compensating immigration, have abat- ed our rate of increase. Despite this, the totals may surprise us.

LEAVE 1T TO PAL"
Dogs Owner Relies on Animal ,
 Intelligence.
Offspring of Gray Wolf and Highly -;red Scottish Guardian of Sheep, Four-Footed Companion Is
 Beyond Value.

While in Alabama 1 made the ac- Quaintance with the strangest dog l have ever heard of-the most unique creature it has been my province to get acquainted with, writes George F.. Burba in the Columbus Dispatch. He belongs to a man living at Tyson vile, but is klo"n all over the state. and his name is Pal"
 Pals mother was a shepherd and lived on the plains out West, where she looked after a big herd of sheep In fact, she was one Of the best sheep dogs in the whole region. His father was a gray wolf So Pal is half wolf and half dcg--i common enough thing out West.
 Pal grew up with the sheep his mother looked after. and learned all the tricks of rounding them up and bringing them in. But he learned whole lot more than the average sheep dog knows. He learned that every other animal as we'll as sheep can be directed and guided and taken care of if you know how to do it. So when Pals owner wants any certain animal on the farm brought in, he simply tells the dog what he wants and Pal attends to it. He can tell the dog to go to the pasture a mile away ana bring ill a certain mule and he goes and brings it in. He can direct him to bring in a certain COW or calf or hog and it is done.
 But the strange thing about it is that Pal also brings in other dogs. Eis owner has numerous bird dogs, which he trains upon the plantation Pal helps train them. If a dog. gets too far away, the trainer says, Pal, bring him in," and Pal does so. He runs to the dog and crowds him toward t.,e owner. He simply will not let liIn go in any other direction. He doesn't fight the other dog, although at times it may be necessary for him 10 take hold of an ear and nip 1t a little. But he annoys the dog until there is nothing else for it to do but 10 be guided by Pal.
 Then Pal is the high sheriff or po- !iceman of the whole plantation. He keeps the peace between the other ami malls. If two dogs get into fight, Pal separates them. If he finds a couple of hogs or chickens fighting, he does the same thing. He doesn't bother anything upon the plantation unless it is doing something it ought not to do, and then he takes . hand in the matter and settles 1t. If he finds pig in field where 1t doesn't helong, he drives 1t out without being directed to do so. If a horse -sflps it's bridle while hitched to the hitch ing post and cavorts down the road, it is only for few moments, for Pal Is close upon its heels or at Its nose and he brings it back and keeps it standing where 1t was left. s.

COMMON COLDS

People who have colds are suffer ing from an attack or germs which they carry in their own mouths and threats.
 These have been permitted to reside there in a state of armed neutrality between the germs and the body de lenses, until fatigue, emotion, intem- perance, over-eXertion, or sudden chill, Temporarily reduces the integrity of the body's defensive agents. This produces the aggregation of symptoms known as a cold.
 Colds are really very serious mat ters, and should never be treated lightly.
 If the body's resistance to one Kind of disease germs is lowered, 1t is quite easy for other germs to gain a foothold and spring into activity at such a time.
 The infection which has produced a cold may extend to other parts of the body and middle ear disease and deaf ness may ensue, or a remote joint may be infected thus causing a low cred efficiency throughout life. Many of the cases wnicA ure Ci- Iagnosed as rheumatism are merely the chronic poisoning which results from the continued growth of the same germs which produce colds. | Since colds are induced by a low ering of the bodily efficiency, it is seen that they may oe avoided by the maintenance of the bodily processes in a good condition.
 This means the observance of the rules of hygiene, adequate food, avoid ance of excesses the securing of sui

ficient sleep and the like.
 Above all, the teeth should be kept in good condition and the mouth kept clean.
 It is the duty of persons who have colds to take every precaution against transmitting them to others.
 The agency in the transmission of colds from one person to another is the sputum and this transference may occur directly by sneezing, coughing CT eXpectorating.
 Some one has called the cold the straphangers disease because of the frequency with which it is contracted in overcrowded street cars.
 People with colds should either de stroy their handkerchiefs which they use or sterilize them by boiling them.
 If you do not wish to contract cold to somebody else, hold your handker- chief or your hand over your face when you cough or sneeze, and do not indulge in promiscuous splitting. fyou do not wish to contract cold from person who has one, avoid in innate personal contact with him.
