Reverence for Life,

Only place all life before the child
as within the realm of humanity, and
thus the greater reveals to him the
less. Put life and soul into every
thing; describe to him even the lily,
which he would pull up as an morgan
lied thing. as the daughter Of slen-
der mother, standing in her garden
bed, from whom her little white Off
spring derives nutriment and moisture.
And let not this be done to excite an
empty enervated habit of pity a sort Of
incubation hospital for foreign pains,
but from the religious cultivation of
reverence for life, the God all-moving
in the tree top and the human brain.
The love of animals, like material uf-
fections, has this advantage, that it is
disinterested and claims no return, and
can also at every moment find an OBJ
ject and an opportunity for its eXer-
cise.-Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Mirrors Made Useful.

Mirrors are great aids in the little
house, for they give vistas and reflect
distances in a most charming and very
realistic way. One Of the most salts
factory examples of their being able
to effect spaciousness is seen in a
much freQuented restaurant. The din
ing room is very long, but unbelievably
narrow. Indeed, ordinarily, it wouldn't
do for the purpose ut all, for folk
would have a distressed smOthered
feeling between the two close walls.
But the actual size of the restaurant
is more than doubled In Illusion, be-
cause the walls are solid mirrors from
end to end, so that one has the impress
sion that the place Is without walls,
and looking through the mirrors,
which, of course, reflect one another
from opposite sides of the room, the
tables and people and lights and flow
ers spread far beyond the power Of
the eye to follow, and there is felt an
exhilaration and a freedom which the
little restaurant and the small crowd
of diners could not pretend to give Of
themselves.

GET THEIR SUPPLY DIRECT
People of Naples Have Goats Brought
Into Their Places of Residence
and There MIXED.

Goats in fiocks, wearing wooden
collars and escorted by goatherds,
usually women or children, make
free of the sidewalks of Naples, and
constitute one Of the most character
istic sights of that city. The herds
are driven through the various streets
and are taken into the houses, and
even up to the third or fourth story,
and there MIXED. The explanation
that is given for the custom of driving
the goats into the city and into the
houses, sometimes to the top floors, to
be MIXED, is that the consumers are
thus assured of having the same quail
ity of milk every day and of knowing
that 1t is not diluted.
Although it would ordinarily be ex-
pected that quantities of milk would
be sold in city like Naples, of nearly
a million inhabitants, it is, however,
not used to a great extent by all
classes of native NeapOlitans. 1t Is
used by inVallds. infants and old
people, and then only by the poorer

THE COMMUNITY CHURCH.

Remember the small white
Church on the hill is built to
serve this community, in a new
progressive, and up-to-d: tie
manner. A church is a mighty
small concern that does not play
a big hand in the social and
moral affairs of the community
It's a business proposition to
maintain such an institution
people know a community is
dead that can't maintain a
church, and it is too. Slow,
heavy and grinding rolls the
days of ones life where they con
hear nothing but the clank of
raw industrialisrn.
Try to follow your children to
Sunday school at 10 o'clock Sun
day morning June 1. Hear the
discussion of '"The Value of
Church to a Community" at II
o'clock. There will be no even
ing services at the church on &C
count of the baccalaurate SER
vices at the l. o. o. F. hall.

KNEW NOTHING ABOUT TOYS
Little Ones Of Palestine Grew Up
Without Seeing a Doll Until
Armenians Brought Some. %

Ever since the outbreak of the war,
the children Of Palestine have been
without toys, and a whole generation
is growing up that has not even
"mothered" a doll. The miseries that
have all but overwhelmed the city Of
Jerusalem have robbed even the boys
of any inclination to play, except now
ball as INDUCED in by the British
"TOmmies" of General Allenby's lib
Grating army. So writes Miss Libby
Oppenheim, New York girl, who Is
the. secretary of the American Zionist
medical unit which is now operating
in Palestine.
Miss Oppenhelm was charged with
the task of distributing a contribu-
ton of toys which accompanied one
of the clothes shipments sent recently
to the Holy land by the Palestine sup
plies department OF the Zionist Or
ganizatiOn of America. The toys were
distributed to the kindergartens, the
schools, the orphanages and to the two
children's hospitals in Jerusalem and
Jaffa.
Miss Oppenheim personally took
some of the toys to the girls orphan
age, and she describes the scene that
transpired. I'VE first explained the
toys to Mrs. $ the head of the or
phanage and to her assistant. Mrs.
S then assembled the children In
one room and told them to cover their
eyes, as she had surprise for them.
'Then she and her assistant brought
in few toys at time and placed
them on a table The children's pa
thence could not last until all the toys
were brought in, but when, through
the corners Of their eyes, they saw a
few of the toys they were almost be-
side themselves with JOY.
Zone little mink of six, whose pa
thence had got out of bounds, asked,
very pertinently: But when do we get

in Jerusalem and Tel Avi were also
made happy by this fine donation of

DECEIT WILL ALWAYS OUT
impossible for Any Man to Conceal
His Real Self for AppreciablS
Length Of Time.

The tag often affixed to the name Of
a public character is that 'fn private
life" he or she is this or that.
How many of US behind the scenes
of the worlds stage are all that we
face the world with?
An Irish comedian, suffering acutely
from shell shock, made his rebellious
body obey his spirit, to give entertain
ment to soldiers at the front in play
he wrote and managed, in which he
assumed the chief part.
Twice during the evening they found
him outside the shed, crying as though
his heart would break.
Each time he gathered himself to-
gether and went back to his appointed
task of bringing good cheer to the rest.
This kind Of assembling is only to
be praised. There is another sort that
is not laudable.
Throwing a front" gets man just
so far and no farther. The deception
Is pierced before long. The manner OF
man he truly is comes to be known
by the company he keeps, by the
chance word he let's fall, by the look IN
his face when he is off his guard.
Happiness comes to crown the life
Of the man who is the same, essential
ly, at all times and in all places. He Is
not acting a part. He Is always his
own genuine, human self, and he does
not know how to be anybody else. His
private conduct and his public deeds do
not need to be reconciled, for all his
life is an open book that needs no
apology or explanation.

PROUD OF HER RECORD


Idaho for the fifth time takes
its place among the honor states
OF the union by making q big
over subscription to the fifth
liberty loan. Its oversubscTip-
ton was $685. The quota
assigned was Sill, 039,650 The
total subscriptions with all re-
ports in the state subscribed
$11, $4,000. There were 81,
subscribers.
According to the figures
given out by the state chairman
Cottonwood and vicinity SUBJ
scribed more than IL counties
individually, the amount raised
through the local banks being
500, 900 or $4,000 more than its
quota.
Idaho county raised $345, $50,
and this amount was subscribed
by 1135 subscribers or in other
words an average of a little bet
ter than $500 for every subscrl-
Der in the county.
Cottonwood is exceedingly
proud of it's record in the Vic
tory Loan to which it can point
with great pride.
Throughout the state there
were but a few counties which
failed to make their quota.
Their deficit was made up by
other counties which greatly ov-
ersubscribed. Shoshone county
leads in oversubscriptions with
S572,85O. Twin Falls had an
oversubscription of $29,25O;'
Bannock county went over the
top S1S5, 45O, and many other
counties did themselves proud
by oversubscribing.
Record Appreciated.
The record made by Idaho is
greatly appreciated by J. U. Cal
kins, governor of the twelfth

a telegram to Monte B. Gwinn,
state chairman, said:
"You and your associates are
to be congratulated on this very

which travels at high speed
throughout. The picturesque
country of Algiers, which has
been the scene of numerous
great paintings, novels and
photoplays, is the home of
Douglas Fairbanks latest pic
ture produced under Aircraft
auspices. The action has to do
with Arabians, beauties of the
harem, fights with bandits. etc.
in which Mr.. Fairbanks por-
trays character quite different
from any he has hitherto es-
sayed.
In addition to the features
named, great travelling caravans
with their tawdry camels, goats
and other animals are shown.
There are battles and chases on
the Arabian desert, in which
hundreds take part and in which
Mr.. Fairbanks does his custom
airy daredevil stunts, one of
thesebeing a dive Mr. Fairbanks
makes from the top of a high
lsand-dune upon the neck of an
Arabian rider, who is passing
by on a swiftly speeding horse
beneath. This is followed by an
exciting hand to hand fight, in

MER|TONE TALK
 OF CITY AFTER
 ONLY 3 WEEKS
People in All Parts of Bir- mingham Taking It-Won- derful Words ofNPraise
 Given

Although Meritone has now been on sale in Birmingham less than three weeks it has become the talk of the city in that short time.
 People in all parts of Birmingham are taking Meritone and many of them al ready have derived wonderful benefits from the use of the wonderful new sys- tenn medicine F.
 Real Merit is Cause
 It is the same everywhere that Meri- tone is introduced. The real merit of Meritone for the ills of the human sys- tenn establishes it in the minds of the people firmly within a short period as a real medicine.
 Wonderful statements have been re- ceived from people in many states re- garding help Meritone brought them. Such statements should prove to every body suffering from an ailing condition of the stomach, liver or kidneys, catarrh and the like or who is weakened and run down that Meritone is a medicine of such real worth that they should at least give it trial.
 Many People Thought
 NJ. Nj. Mincy of 229 Kern street, Knox ville, Tenn, said:
 q think Meritone is wonderful It has .1one me more good than anything I ev tried. l can't praise Meritone too highly
 W. B. Gore, a business man of Nash vile, Tenn, said, regarding his wife's experience with Meritone:
 My wife took Meritone for the kid neys and it has helped her so much that I consider it one of the best medicines I have ever used in my family
 J. J. Davis, who is an employe of the state of Kentucky at the School of Re form, at Greendale, Ky, said:
 "S was generally broken down in .,esI+h but Meritone built me up so well l am glad to recommend it to others.'' Meritone is now being specially intro duced in Birmingham at the Jacobs drug store at 1904 Second avenue and the Nor ton drug store and is sold in Bessemer at the Pegram-Patton drug store and in Ensley at the Berney drug store.-Adv.

Memorial Commission Hears Arguments For
 Four Different Plans

| ideas were a state child welfare build ing and a state chain of tubercular col- onies for the treatment of persons af- flicted with tuberculosis.
 At the last moment the forces urgin g larger quarters for the educational sys- tenn and those charged with the ad- vancement of the campaign for voca- tional education and the eradication of illiteracy organized and appeared before -the committee to urge that. should the commission decide upon a memorial building, provision be made for better quarters for the educational forces Representatives of this idea did not suggest a form of memorial. They merely urged that they be cared for in the event a memorial building is erected.
 Those who favor a state hospital To- cated in Montgomery, had as speakers Gen. Robert E. Steiner, pr. B. J. Bald win, Mrs W. B. Crumpton, Dr. w B.. Crumpton, Col. Leo Strassburger, Rob- ert H Jones and w. Nash Read, all of Mont tgomery. They Insisted that the greatest thing the state could do would be the erection of a state hospital free to all persons needing medical and surgical treatment and unable to bear the expenses of treatment. It was proposed that soldiers would be pre- ferred over all other persons, and that citizens throughout the state would contribute funds sufficient to maintain the institution and that the tax on the state would be small It was stated that the institution would be under the absolute control of the state, and that no individuals would have anything to do with the operation.

Bill for Special Guards Over Colias Property Turned

The board of revenue of Jefferson county held a busy session yesterday morning, at which time the members agreed to employ six inspectors and one supervisoE to work on the tick eradication movement in this county. These men will be appointed by the state veterinarian.
 An assistant clerk in the office of Judge H. B. Abernathy of the munich pal court was authorized by the board. Sheriff Chris Hartsfield presented bill for the services of two special officers employed to guard the Colias property since the illicit still was found on that property several weeks ago. The board turned the bill down on the ground they had no authority to make pay ment.
 A committee from the .children's hos pital. headed by J. w. Mcqueen and J. W. Donnelly, appeared before the board and asked that the county do the Ia undry work of this institution at

 Mrs w B. Crumpton of Montfomery made formal announcement that the Montgomery Infirmary association will donate SEQ 900 cash and five lots, val ued at S15,00O. if the hospital idea is accepted and the building loeated in Montgomery.
 Colonel Samuel Will John of Selma, for many years a member of the legis- lature from Jefferson and Dallas coun- ties, and member of the board of trus- tees of the state department of ar chives and history, presented the his tory building. He declared that some thing must be done to preserve the his toric records of Alabama. that for all time to come soldiers and descendants of soldiers will want official records showing what they and their ancestors did in the world war and in all move ments for the advancement of the American nation. and that they will in- stantly come to the history building for their information.
 He said it was proposed to collect the records, stories and information relating to all members of Alabamas contribution to the army, navy and marine corps and to preserve them for posterity. In ad- oition, all medals, mementoes and troph- ies awarded and collected during the war will be cared for He thought memorial building should carry out the memorial idea from beginning to the end and declared that nothing could do it so we'll as a memorial history building de- voted exclusively to memorials.
 He also mentioned the practical value of the history department, saving peo- pie of Alabama have been trained to turn to the state department of archives and history when they need information of any sort
