CHURCH ADVERTISING.

Chicago Daily News: That some
what imponderable commodity which
the church has to offer mankind
makes it's advertising necessarily
subtle undertaking. The consuming
public in religious matters knows only
indefinitely what it wants, and church
advertising in consequence suffers in
a measure for lack of definite appeal.
Good bread can be maze descriptive
" alluring, but good church service

Advertising, nevertheless, Is
probably q factor necessary to the
re-eleyation of the church from

somewhat GREATNESS and behind
by the sudden acceierations Of
other social organizations in the
last two decades, the church rec
i ognizes the need for secular speed
and effectiveness. Certain wide
awake church organizations now
have taken the initiative with
plans for systematic and nation
wide newspaper advertising.
Were this merely hoist to hold a
diving institution from its legitimate
grave, church advertising were better
not attempted. Nor would 1t be effec-

DIAMONDS WHITE AND BLACK.

desert about one hundred miles from

peated. Diamonds were first founu
in South Africa in 1867, when a man
observed some children playing with
pebbles, one of which was very
shiny" The stone was secured ana
taken to an expert. who pronounced
it a diamond worth $4,000. Later
other stones" were secured, one
diamond that sold for $56,0o0. Then
the news spread, and the scenes
that ensued" were much like those
which have been witnessed in Cali
fornia in the days of the argonauts
and in every gold, silver or diamond
camp ever developed. South Africa
became the greatest diamond.produc-
ing region in history, and the Kim
berley district the richest in the
world. The Kimberley mines alone
have yielded more than $200,000,OCO
worth of the precious stones. The
value of the total South African
product reaches much higher figures.
Diamonds have always been re-
sarded with special favor as symbols
of solicited wealth, and have heid an
important place in the coliectlens Oh
monarchs and millionaires. There IS
always a ready mariet for diamonds
and more Of them than ever before
are being imported into the United
States, although the price has ad-
yanced greatly within recent period.
There are many famous diamonds,
some of which have stirring and not
infrequently tragic histories. froD-
ably the best known is the Kohinoor.
the largest diamond among the Brit
ish crown jewels, which came from
India, and it is said has been traced
back for 5000 years. Other celebrated
diamonds are the Sancy, the Orloft,
formerly among the crown Jewels OF
Russia: the Great Mogul, also
product of India, and the Regent or
Pitt, brought from the East Indies,
which at one time decorated the
sword hilt of Napoleon Bonaparte
and is now in the Louvre gallery IN
Paris. A complete record OF the
noted diamonds in the world would
make volume of exceptional in
tereSt.
Some very large diamonds have
been found in South Africa. One OF
GIL carats, or nearly half a pound,
was brought to light in 1898, and
later a gem more than three times
this size was dug up. But diamonds
are not reckoned in value by size
The biggest of the African diamonds
has been cut into eleven pieces, the
value thus being greatly enhanced.
The largest of these sections, form
ing a Jewel of 5161a carats. is CALEB

TODAY'S BIT OF VERSE
THERE is NO DEATH

THERE is NO DEATH.
There is no death! the stars go down
TO rise upon some other shore,
And bright in heavens jeweled crown
They shine forever more
There is no death! the forest leaves
Convert to life the viewless air;
The rocks disorganiZe to feed
The hungry moss they bear.
There is no death! the dust we tread
Shall change, beneath the summer showers,
To Golden grain, or mellow fruit,
Or rainbow tinted flowers.
There is death! the leaves may fall,
The flowers may fade and pass away
They only wait, through wintry hours,
The warm, sweet breath of May.
There is no death! the choicest gifts
That heaven hath kindly lent TO earth
Are ever first to seek again
The country of their birth
And all things that for growth or joy
Are worthy of our love or care,
Whose loss has left us desolate,
Are safely gaTnered there
Though life becomes dreary waste,
We know its fairest, sweetest flowers,
Transplanted into paradise,
Adorn immortal bowers.
The voice of brd-like melody
That we have missed and mourned 50 long
Now mingles with the angel choir
In everlasting song.
There is no death! although we grieve
When beautiful, familiar forms
That we have learned to love are torn
From our embracing arms;
Although with bowed and breaking heart
With sable garb and silent tread
We bear their senseless dust to rest,
And say that they are dead
They are not dead! they have but passed
Beyond the mists that blind us here
Into the new and large life
OF that serener sphere.
They have but dropped their robe of clay
To put their shining raiment on;
They have not wandered far away
They are not lost or gone"
Though disenthralled and glori1ed,
They still are here and love yet;
The dear ones they have left behind
They never can forget
And sometimes when our hearts grow faint
Amid temptations fierce and deep.
Or when the wildly raging waves
OF grief or passion sweep,
We feel upon our fevered brow
Their gentle touch their breath of balm;
Their arms enfold us, and our hearts
Grow comforted and calm.
And ever near US, though unseen,
The dear, immortal spirits tread;
For all the boundless universe
Is life-there no dead

CHINA's PEACEFUL WEAPON.

1t is interesting to learn that as against a
nation seeking to exploit her unfairly, China
can use a peaceful weapon Of very effective
kind This weapon is the boycott, which the
late Charles Stewart Parnell introduced into
Ireland during the land agitation Parnell' 8
formula as to the treatment of anybody who
took '<boycotted'' farm was: ''Put him into
a moral Coventry, This meant: refuse to buy
of him. refuse to sell to him, refuse to associate
with him. The Chinese can get persons who
interfere with Chinese commercial interests dis
missed or forced into unemployment. The own
ers of large department store in Canton were
accused last November of selling japanese
goods. The Chinese thereupon compelled a
number of clerks to lose their occupations Els
Establishments in Shanghai and Hongkong which
had similarly offended we're also boycotted.
Chinese good will is of some consequence to
Japan or any other nation that unconscionably
exploits China. A customs union between
Japan and China might be enormously profit
able to both countries. On the other hand, a
boycott Of Japanese goods by the Chinese might
be commercially disastrous to Japan.
Thus China's peaceful weapon is, in many
respects, more formidable than the mechanical
instruments Of destruction used in modern war
fare.

The poem, ''There Is No DEATH by J. l.,
McCreery, printed on this page of The Gate
City today, was for long enormously attributed
to Lord Lytton, but thorough investigation es-
tablshed it's authorship. 1t was first published
in 1863 in the Dubuque Times and then given
wider circulation in Arthur's Home Magazine.
There Is No Death has been printed in every
land where the English language is known, has
gone into school books and more than once has
been read into the Congressional Record in
eulogies on departed statesmen.

LANDING FIELDS
OVER COUNTRY
BElNGPLANNE
Aircraft Association Tells
Importance of Good
Landings.

New York, Feb. 6.-Plans for the
landing fields have been worked out
by officers of, the army air service and
the Manufacturers Aircraft associ-
alton, it was announced here today.
Army flyers have covered more than
100000 miles in a aerial survey of
the country and made exhaustive re-
ports Of the facilities offered to cross
country flyers.
Representatives Of 80 large south
ern cities already have been invited
to establish landing fields under army
direction. Many others will receive
like invitations during the next few
months! They. must be laid out ac-
cording to specifications given by the
army and in return the government
gives steel hangers to the municipali-
ties. Operation Of the ''air harbor''
is assumed by the. municipality. Since
the armistice the number of army
fields has been reduced from SO to 16
and the naval air stations from II
to 9.
A Real Necessity.
The landing field" says the air
craft association, sis to the airplane
what the harbor is to the ocean liner
I and the railroad terminal is to the
train. 1t is not merely a fiat piece of
land on which a flyer car bring his
craft to earth. Such a piece of ground
bears the same, relation to a real land
ing field as an unimproved water inlet
bears to a harbor like New York or
Liverpool.
"A landing field should have, first
of all, dimensions which fit it to
handle all forms of aircraft. It
should be drained 50 as to permit its
use even in the ,wettest weather. 1t
should have shelter and supplies for
flyers and their crafts and should be
accessible to the trade center it is
meant to serve. This feature il, Of
supreme importance because COM
mercial aerial navigation will develop
only In proportion to its commercial
value. The field should be identified
with markings visible from great
heights and with radio apparatus no
