Mir Editor: It seems somewhat strange that there is only one former president living (William H. Taft of New Hayen), and no former vice presidents. but such 'r tho case. Hon. Levi P. Morton. of New York, who died May 18th, OF his uotn bR,thday was the last former vice president living. He lived under twen- ty-three of the twenty seven presidents of the united States. Only four presidents had filled out their terms when Morton was born. No other president or vice president approaches him in that respect. President Rutherford B. Hayes. of Ohio, lived under nineteen presidents. No oth- CT president equals him in that respect There seems to be no doubt but that Senator Warren c. Harding will be. as he richly deserces, the sixth president from the state of Ohio. The other five presidents from that state were: William Henry Harrison, Rutherford B. Hayes, Janies A. Garfield. William Mckinley, and William H.aTaft. Patriotic and Popu~ lar Governor Calvin Coolidge viii think, receive a rousing majority of votes and surely be the fourth vice president from Massachusetts. The other three were: John Tdams, Elbridge Gerry ana Henry Wilson.

AIMosr NoRTHLEss.

In connection with the efforts that are being made by the shipping board to get rid of it's vessels, including those built of wood. it cannot be overlooked than in the recent offering of '21 wooden ships not bid was received for them. This doesn't even offer the promise of getting rid of them at a figure lower than ap- praisaI or at tremendous sacrifice even for nothing at all has been offered for them. This in view of the demand for ships plainly indicates that these par ticular ships must be. regarded as fail ure. that the expenditure in connection with their construction has to large ex- tent been lost and that whatever is f. nally done with them Or whatever is se- cured in the way of sale price, the f. nancial return is bound to be small
 This is only one of the many instances which goes to bear out the stand that was taken by General Goethals against the wooden ships It was maintained at the time that the construction of wooden steamships made it possible to employ many more shipbuilders than could be done if only steel ships were built and to get the needed vessels quicker. Such a claim was understandable but it was to be expected that such 2. product would be fiji to render the service that was ex- pected or that it would be possible to turn them into cash after the war As things have turned out the building of tl1e wooden ships of the character of these 21 has not only been waste of money but of time and material All of the energy that went into their constrlIc- tion has for the most part been wastet and it requires no better evidence to support-this claim than the assertion Of one who recently inspected the ships fo the effect that they are fit only to be converted into barges to be lowed. These almost new vessels equipped to propel themselves are no better than steamboats that have seen long years of service and outlived their usefulness. -
 It is of course only another of those in stances of the price that must be paid as the result of our lack of preparedness for the war

GERMANY YIELDS.

Germany decides wisely and well when 1t agrees to the coal demands of the al Hes and indicates that it will meet the requirements. There was not much doubt but what Germany would take this course before it accepted the alternative fef having it's tsrriteFy invaded by allied forces in order to carry out treaty pro- visions. 1t is far better that it should put forth it's greatest efforts even though other countries are going to share in the results, than to lay down, invite the sending in of allied troops and embarrass itself fully as much as it might bother others.
 Germany has been maintaining that il Is called upon to do the impossible. On such claim il has relied for the light ening of the demands, and there has been sfeand a disposition on the part of the Allies 10 make changes where they are Justified. Naturally they have not been disposed 10 agree with the German fig ares but concessions have nevertheless a5een made and Germany has gained ser.ething from the course has been Following.
 = How long Germany can expect to keep tb such tactics and continue to get the &eRsiderafionz it expects can perhaps be gathered from the words of Lloyd George Eaen he declared that the allies were not .lufHng. and the quicker the Germans gan eliminate any such idea the better 1t EiH he for them. Germany stands to ;ose by its methods of trying to dodge 7 tie treaty terms the same as it did by .lhe methods it employed in the war
 When it finds the disposition among she allies to be reasonable tnough firm, r is time to take advantage of i. rather sEan to destroy such advantage bv whi. . s fEg and baking. In view of all r';at ,.as taken place harshness is somethin; ah5dt which the Germans have little or rothing 10 say. They are paying g penalty that ts much lighter than they would have 'r.- posed and certainly had Germany been making the terms 1t wouldn't tave had ans time 10 listen to claims abort the re- Iuirernents being impossible

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR


 Mir Editor: The Sabbath question has been a subject of controversy since the earliest days of Christianity While it is generally admitted by the church that the Law of Moses was supplemented by the Gospel, the ten commandments given by Moses were for all time and are rec ognized as binding today as in former years. The Sabbath commandment is the only one of the ten, about which there ap- pears reason for dispute. Acknowl-' edsing the seventh day as the Sabbath, how does this effect the present day Chris tian? Jesus stated He was Lord of the Sabbath, that the Sabbath was made for man, and that it was lawful to do good on the Sabbath day The mission of the church in this world is fathfulness to God and the winning of the people of the world to God. This was the object of all Christ's work, and his labors were constant seven days a week, as many evangelists, missionaries and teachers are doing at the present time To harmon ize His activities, and justification of those who performed any necessary labor on the Sabbath, with, the. commandment to. remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy, etc, we must look to Him, for the solution. for He surely could not be charged with Sabbath breaking. There is but one conclusion to draw from Christ's attitude, and that is the elevation of all of the days of the week to the plan. of the Sabbath for the Christians, nal1- ing all labor of whatever nature, labor of love, fulfilling the command of St Paul "Whztsoever you do in word, thought or deed, do all to the glory of God" The custom of setting apart one day in seven for rest and worship is ben eficial and should be blessing to all, although there is no obligation on the

tendaney to make fat babies rather than strong babies. While they may be used for short time, no baby should be fed on them exclusively.
 Condensed Milk-Condensed milk is not the same as fresh milk, and its continued use for a baby is likely to cause indigestion and a disease known as rickets. It is lacking in some of the necessary food clements, and is therefore undesirable as a permanent food for children. Condensed milk is not cheaper than fresh cows milk all though it may appear to cost less.
 Powdered Milk-When fresh cows milk may not be obtained, or. when it is necessary to travel with baby. powdered milk (whole milk containing 3 1-2 per cent. of butter fat) may be used as substitute.
 Fresh Milk-Nature never intend ed milk to be handled. It passes di- rectly from the mother to the mouth of the young both in human beings and animals. This is a wise precaution because milk iss easily spoiled, espe- cially if small particles of dirt or dust get into it. and it is fertile field for the growth of disease producing germs.
 Milk for babies should be obtained from healthy cows. It should be milk ed by a clean milk man into clean about 50 degrees r. and kept at about this temperature until ready for use Never give a baby old or stale milk.
 Milk delivered in cans is not safe for babies because there are too many opportunities for dirt and impurities to get into it. When milk is deliver ed to the home, the bottle should be T 4olx CT allow milk to stand in the hot sun or the war kitchen, or remain in an un- covered vessel where flies may get into it. h winter, do not permit milk, to be frozen 3s it may interfere with the baby's digestion. Before using a bot tie of milk, wipe the cap carefully with a clean, damp cloth.
 Pasteurized Milk-It is best to pas teurize milk intended for baby A simple plan is to proceed as follows Place the bottle on an inverted pie pan up to the neck in a pan of water Put a thermometer in the water and heat until the water is 15e degrees F, Remove the. pan from the hot fire and keep the temperature of the water betwen 140 and 150 degrees for thirty minutes, then cool rapidly A milk thermometer is expensive, but it is safer to use one than to experiment with the babg's milk. However even without a thermometer, good results may be obtained by carefully heating the water to the boiling point. Take it off the fire. Set the bottle of milk in this water. gently shaking the bot tie at several intervals, and let it re- main for thirty minutes. Cool the milk quickly and place on ice until it is needed.
 Boiled AIilk-A simple method of making milk safe for baby under one year Of age is to boil it. Put the

Sharing Babies in cbins

A month after a chiId's birth in China it's parents give what is called the shaw ing feast" On this eventful occasion the barber comes and slaves of all of it's hair except small tuft on tiF fore part of the. head.
 At length when the little one is cid enough to play with toys the fond par ents pGce before it on table sword, a book, a pen medicine, needles. boats, etc. and allow it to take up whatever appeals to it most. The idea is that the youngsters choice betokens the occupa- tion or business it will follow when it grows to maturity; it if chooses a pen, the supposition is that it will be a schol- are; if sword, it will be a4soldier. and so on.
 If the child at any time becomes gravely ill its mother hastens to the temple and soemnly promises the gods they will intervene to save it's life to consecrate it's life to their service if Thus it often happens that young Chinese become monks very much against their wills
 | The child's first birthday is made the occasion of great festivities. Often great quantities of ''mien" noodles-are prepared and sent about to all the rela- tives and friends. Succeeding birthdays are scarcely noticed until the tenth. Then agreat celebration is held.-Detroit News.

oHINA.s NEW TROUBLE.

From the proclamations which have been issued by the revolutionary leader in China he doesn't lack determination to carry out his threat of occupying Pe- king That doesn't of necessity mean that he will be able to do so since the government is taking him at his word and making preparations accordingly to defeat his undertaking
 China has been enjoying a rest from internal troubles for some little time. Its chief concern has been wit hthe attitude of Japan and the keeping of the promises made by the mikados government that the shantung peninsula would be re- bellion and it's ambitious undertaking there are indications of substantial backing to support the confidence of the revolutionary generals.
 Thus far the trouble has been confined to talk and preparations. There has been no clash though evidence of the forward movement of the rebels has been furnish ed and special efforts are being devoted to the protection of the railroad line that serves the capital from Tientsin. With other communication at a standstill, af- fecting supplies and business, the situa- ton cannot fail to be regarded as some thing more than an empty threat. That the rebels are disposed to compromise their differences is not indicated though reliance upon provisioning and protecting the people of the city is placed upon the keeping open of the railroad line. This is something that will doubtless be insist ed upon by the representatives of foreign
  erty in the capital are at stake and whose protection they will demand.
 Possibly more as a precaution than because it is believed that they will be actually needed have endorsements been sent to the American legation. but it is far preferable that they should be there and not be needed than that they should be required and not be within reach. China, however, will do well to adjust it's troubles without resort to bloodshed.

Sunday Morning Talk

. It is said that when sightseers visit the wonderful Mammoth Cave ia kel- lucky the guides mount a sort of pulpit before entering it's gloomy depths, and preach the tourists a sermon. This ser mon consists only only five words, and yet its importance cannot be over-esti- mated. These words are, Keep close to your guide '" To fall back or depend up on one self for even one instant While within this largest known cavern ID the world, may mean death. Its pitfalls are deep and numerous. Only the guide knows where safety lies,
 Even beneath the power of great lights the darkness is so intense that but inn perfectly are revealed it's wonders and beauty its fairy like magic haunts, it's myriads of scintillatiRg stalaetities But side by side with every gleaming glory turks also death, sure and certain unless accompanied by safe guide The bot tomless pit the dead sea, the covered way the solitary cave. the covered pit, the deserted chambers and the unknown depths of Echo River are all ready to greedily claim victims from the hundreds of tourists who pass wonder-eyed and awe-stricken through the vast passages, chambers and halls.
 Whefein lies their safeguard? Only. in obeying the words of the five-word ser mon: Keep close to your guide.
 Are we not tourists on longer journey and through more devious ways, daily passing marvellous wonders which have become common place to us only be- cause of our familiarity with them? Even so we are encompassed about with dang >ers and pitfalls, and our safety lies in Keeping close to our Guide. Worldlipess perhaps, may enstrange us from our 1 -st 7Ir other allurement.

FLYING TO ALASKA.

There have been many tests made with file aiFplanes of American manufacture ss well as those of foreign stamp in this country. but a tryout on different lines h many ways Is that which has just been started by the fleet which has left for the flight 10 Nome.

 This effort to cover 45O0 miles in about two weeks means an endurance test but t also means a trying out of the possi- hEitiss connected with the use of air planes in communicating with this north srn territory 10 reach which it now re- .7gires a considerable period of time While certain parts Of the trip will be no different than a cross country flight there --xiH be a decided difference when it comes to covering that portion of the country lying between our northern bor- ser and Alaska, for as the squadron e crosses Canada it is to be realized that 3t will be travelling over country about --Ehiei little Is known to the operators of flying machines It will be a good deal Hike conditions which were encountered by the first long distance flyers with the Edded difficulty of travelling over terri tory which is but sparsely inhabited and therefore offering less desirable places in ease it becomes necessary to descend
 That there will be much more to look forward to in the way of results from such an undertaking than there would be in a flight across the ocean can be aeadily understood. It will be demon sstrated whether the establishment of an serial transportation line into that re- zion would be advisable but it will also determine what needs to be done to en- courage such service and whether the air service is equipped to meet such require fnents.

LEAVE IT ALONE.

Every now and then new move is undertaken to have the Liberty Bell re- paired It has been long time since it was cracked and it has been long time since it was used.

 The effort to tinker with the bell grows out of the belief that it can be repaired either by those who have some new method or those who are willing to sake chance with it. Efforts to i'll LID he gap have previously been made and vithpnt success.

very few women have the corner of

 been told so by persons who noticed
 mine, but I thought they merely were
 trying to fiatter, and that is one thing
 I never pay any attention to. I think
 it does help ones looks so if one has a pretty mouth and perfect teeth. I never had to have a thing done to
 my teeth when l as young girl nearly all my friends had theirs
 straightened and they did envy me so!
 My dentist says if everybody had teeth
 like mine he'd have to go out of busi- ness. Some teeth look so yellowish
 but mine are fairly blue white. Once had a woman ask me if they werents false and she would scarcely believe they could be real.
 T must remember to get a box of rouge when I go out. Scarcely any, body will believe I use rouge, because I always had such a fine color all my life till had my trouble and worried so, and feel that I am perfectly jus tified in supplying color now, don't you? It looks exactly as it did when my cheeks were naturally pink.

I wouldn't think of bleaching l it or anything, even thought it is get ting so dark, but lemon is different. It is very expensive to have the whole hair dyed? I think when you really are young and your hair begins to turn you are justified in hiding the i fact. Why, my friends would simply scream if they thought I was consider ] ing dyeing it, but they need never know You can? Well, I believe I'll come in next week and have it done. And I want a bottle of your liquid powder and some vanishing cream and an astringents I waste very little time on fussing with my looks. if do say it, l but I think it is woman's duty to dc the best for herself she can.

 had all my trouble I suppose I would look even younger,
