REBUKED FROM THE PULPIT
Pastoral Adnnonition, Gently Conveyed,
Should Have Been Enough for
Even Choir Boys.

The pastor Of small parish In a
New Jersey town was known far and
wide about the countryside for his
quaint ways and eccentric habits. He
had q small choir which he augmented
on special occasions with boys from
the neIghbOrhood. These recruits were
sometimes unruly and he did not al
ways find Il easy to hold them within
the proper bounds.
In the course of a Christmas morn
ing sermon several choir boys began to
eat peanuts surreptitiously and the
cracking OF the shells was plainly
audible to the congregation. At first
the rector paid no attention to them,
but finally they got on his nerves.
Pauslng after an impassiOnate out
burst Of oratory. he fixed his gaze
sternly upon them and thus addressed
them in reproving tones:
''BOys-you choir boys. mean. II
you must eat peanuts in church, please,
oh, please. do not crunch the Shells"
then turning again to the congregation,
he resumed. his discourse.

Why Moses Forbade Pork.

Presumably the reason Moses had
Tor forbiddlng pork to the Israelites
was that the eating Of pig-meat was
proved accountable fon the disease
now called "trichinOsis."
That dreadful malady is rare now
adays because we cook our pork thor
oughly, and arY "trichinae" that IL
may contain are killed by the heat.
Not until recently, however, has 1t
come to he known that trichinosis is
really disease Of the rat. Pig-sties
are usually haunted by those four
footed vermin, which the pigs often
kill and eat, thereby becoming infect
ed,
The pig however, serves merely as
an intermediate host" for the para
site, which, when taken alive into the
human body, proceeds to multiply at
n fabulous rate, the tiny wormlike or
ganisms invading the tissues with SER
iOus and Ofttlmes fatal results.

HOW CAN YOU TELL YOUA

As Plain as the Nose on Your
Face-Just Smell Il

Smokers do not have to put tobacco
in their pipes to find out II they like it.
They can just rub the tobacco between
the palms of their hands and smell it.
The nose is an infallible guide to smok-
ing enjoyment. 20
All smoking tobaccos employ some
favoring ito improve the favour and
burning qualities OF the leaves, to
quote the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Naturally, there is considerable differ
ence in the kind of flavoripgs used, and
the nose quickly detects this difference.
TUXEDO Tobacco uses the purest,
most wholesome, and delicious Of all
Observation-Disclosures. And the almost
universal liking for chocolate in great
measure explains the widespread popu-
larity of TUXEDO Tobacco.

TUXEDO Tobacco a pure fragrance

How Wild Things Are Lured.

Fish and frogs are equally curious
to examine the many bright lures that
the fishermen know will attract their
attention. In frog hunting all that is
necessary Is gig composed of sew
eral hooks grouped together and COW
cred with small bit Of red flannel.
When the frog sees this bit of bright
red 1t leaps for 1t and often hooks
itself at the first attempt. Trout.
muskellunge and other game fish will
often leap clear of the water to grab
an especially brilliant lure.
1t may be said that every kind Of
bird Is trimming over with curiosity
as hunters of every land have trapped
them by inducing them to approach
and investigate unfamiliar objects.
Crows and parrots possess this curios-
ity In extreme degree, and if any
thing is held near their cages they
are quick to come over and examine
it from every angle.

How Lawns Were Named.

Years ago the Dutch excelled all
other peoples in the bleached linens
they sent forth. That was in a time,
OF course, when bleached linen was
considered luxury. The Dutch
gained their fame for this excellence
because they had wonderful system
of treating the muslin to make It white.
To begin with, they treated It to
bleaches and acids Of various sorts {;
and then they placed II on bleaching
lawns, or green's, where II lay at In
tervals from March to September. The
white material thus produced took the
name Of lawns whereon Il was
bleached-at least so goes the story.

Business Methods More Than
Counterfeit High Prices.
A RECORD OF ACHIEVEMENTS
Executive Departments Consolidated

Sound Financial Policy APP
piled to State
Affairs.

Gov. Frank o. Lowden's great rec
ord as war executive Of Illinois has
made him one of the leading candi-
dates for the Republican nomination
for president. 1t is story of ADMIN
istrative achievements. Every pledge
to the people has been redeemed:
Despite high prices and unsettled
conditions due to the war, Gov. Low
Zen, by the practical application Of
business methods to the management
of the states affairs, reduced the tax
rate in Illinois 33 per cent In two
years. His friends are certain that he
can do for the nation what he has
done for Illinois in the matter of good
government and lower taxes if he 10
given the opportunity.
When Governor Lowden assumed Of
fee as executive of Illinois in Janu-
airy, 1917, the state treasury was prac-
tically bankrupt. There was only $3.50
to the credit of the general fund,
when outstanding bills had been paid.
One Of his first official acts was to
abolish many political jobs by COM
bining the work Of 125 different de-
partments and bureaus into nine COM
pact central departments. Gov. Low
den also had the state adopt budget
system which he thought would be
model for other commonwealth. He
placed business men and trained ex-
perts In charge Of each Of these de-
partments with gratifying results to
the taxpayers.
The cost of conducting the state
government was reduced hundreds of
thousands of dollars year while the
quality Of service to the public showed
a marked Improvement. The effects
of business administration in the
state were manifest In short time.
The state gradually built up cash
balance and was able to discount It's
bills.
AS a practical illustration Of what
good government means it Is officially
estimated that Illinois will have a
cash balance of $9,S77,225 on hand
July l, 1920, in spite of reduction of
33 per cent In the tax rate. This is
what Gov. Lowden's business admins
tration has done for Illinois.
In ''tion to these things Gov.
Lowd, succeeded In accomplishing
these concrete results:
Began work on the states S60,O0O,-
600 good roads system. Two hundred
miles of good road were built last year.
One thousand miles will be completed
in 1920.
Authorized the beginning Of work on
the last link Of the states system Of
waterways, which will connect the
Great Lakes with the Mississippi river
Obtained needed tax reforms for the
people.
Recognized the states penal and
charitable institutions on humane
basis.
Brought about q constitutional con-
vention for Illinois, which Is now In
session forming a new basic law for
the state.
Friends Of Gov. Lowden believe that
actions speak louder than words, and
they point to his public record as evil

Interrogating Candidates.

Senator Harding sets a good exam.
pie. Interrogated by constituent on
the subject of his support of the Cum
Minis railroad bill, he replies fully
and frankly. His letter is a credit to
his courage as public man. The in.
quiry, for two reasons, was justified.
(D The Cummins bill is one Of very
great importance. 1t provides for the
return of the railroads to their own
ers, and, therefore, is a declaration
against state socialism as embodied in
the proposition for government own
ership and operation of those proper.
ties. The anti-strike feature Of the
measure is warmly challenged by or
ganized labor, and, therefore, has an
interest all its own. In one way or
another, everybody is concerned about
the railroad question, which goes to
the very root of the peoples comfort,
and even existence. Paralyze railroad
transportation and you paralyze the
country. In that way the people
could be both frozen and starved, and
all business ruined.
(2l Senator Harding is a candidate
for the republican nomination for
President. His constituents, and, in
deed, voters everywhere, are entitled
to full information about his attitude
toward questions certain to enter into
the presidential campaign. If nomi.

the Secretary Of State to return the
