Most Publishers Prefer the Clean

Herbert jenkins, the London pub

suddenly called his attention to man

from whom he can never extract

Mr.. jenkins shook a dubious head.
"He went to the publishers office
and demanded payment. There was
nothing doing. Without ceremony he
seized the publisher by the beard and
announced his intention Of hanging on
until he got a check. He got his
money.
That" continued the author re-
morselessly, as he fixed a speculative
eye upon Mr.. Jenkins clean-shaven

Weeds and Hay Fever.

Interesting observations made by
DR.. William Sheppegrell, president Of
the American Hay Fever Prevention
association, are reported in a paper
published by him. AS a result Of a
weed-cutting campaign carried out In
New Orleans in the spring of 1916 the
number Of hay fever cases was re-
duced TO less than 80 per cent Of the
usual prevalence. The cold storage"
treatment Of the disease, in which
practically all ventilation Is excluded
In order to insure the absence Of at
mospheric pollen, Is said to afford only
transient relief, while the low tenn
perature IS likely to cause bronchitis.
The effects Of an abundant rain on hay
fever patients Is beneficial because the
rain not only washes the pollen out Of
the air. but also permanently removes
its toxic qualities, so that 1t is harm
less when again blown into the air
after the rain Is over. This has been
proved by laboratory experiments, in
which pollen, after submersion in wa
ter, was inhaled by hay fever subjects
without any apparent effect.

to the proposed gift Of six airships to
Australia and really meant always
look dirigible In It's air-valve." These
six airships are said to have been on
patrol duty In the North sea and Brit
ain, according to cable message to
the commonwealth, has offered them
with hangar and equipment to the

ter for defense, Senator Pearce, has
placed the problem before the local

Australian company may welcome the
dirigibles, but as defensive equip
ment they are not regarded with over

DIFFUSING LIGHT IN ASIA
Christian Missionaries Firmly Behind
independence Move. Though Not
Directly Responsible for L.

No picture Of the independence move
ment or Of Korean life in any aspect
is adequate that does not include the
church as one of its high lights. OBJ
serves Nathaniel PETER In Scribner's.
Now, even the japanese have with
drawn the charge that the movement
is exclusively Christian and that Ii was
instigated by American missionaries
for American political purposes. But
II Is true that the Korean Christians
are a unit in its support, that the ma
jority Of its leaders are Christian. and
that the originating impulse Is largely
Christian.
And that Is only natural: First, be-
cause the Christians are the most influ-
entail class In Korea, and, second, be-
sarily means contact with Western
ideas and Western thought. And those
necessarily means the development Of
a spirit that cannot and will not en-
dure subsection to the iron military
rule of an allen conqueror.
In that sense Christianity Is RESPONSE
bic for the unrest in Korea and in that
sense the Christian church Is the
enemy the Japanese have to fight. And
that VIII be increasingly true as time
goes on. for Christianity is making
rapid strides in Korea, the more rapid
for the part the Christians have played
In the rebellion.
