Direct Current.
Ill.,

If an electrical current is made by
connecting an ordinary dry battery
an electric bell and a push button to-
gether with copper wires. the bell
rings when the button is pushed.
The dry battery has two terminals
positive and negative. When the but
ton is pressed an electric current
flows through the circuit from the
positive battery terminal, through
the bell and back to the negative
terminal of the battery. 1t will never
flow in the opposite direction. Such
a current of electricity is called a di-
rect current because it flows in only
one direction.
If an instrument were connected
into the circuit to indicate the cur
rent strength, it would be found that
the strength does not vary as long as
the button is pressed. This Is a
steady. direct current.
All batteries will produce a steady
direct current in an electrical circuit
when the circuit Is closed.
Electrical dynamos are machines
which can force an electric current
to flow in a circuit. If the current

How to fight film
Dental science has for years sought
ways to fight that film. Two effective
methods have been found. Able au-

Leading dentists the world over are
urging their adoption.
A new-day tooth paste has been Gre
ated, called Pepsodent. 1t complies
with modern requirements. These two
film combatants are embodied in it, for
daily application. Careful people of
some forty races are now using this

Pepsodent also corrects some great

It omits all soap, all chalk. Science has
proved that soap and chalk defeat
proper tooth protection.
Soap reduces the starch digestant in

That is there to digest starch deposits
on teeth, before they ferment and form

WAS ONLY COMIC OPERA WAR
Americans Experienced Odd Pro-
visions When Joining Spanish
Legion Against Moors.

It was Just a comic opera war any
how, according to 50 young Americans
who have returned to New York from
whence they sailed two months ago
to Join the Spanish Foreign Legion
for service against the Moors. The
would-be Foreign Legionnaires were
represented in numbers among ex-serv-
Ice men applying to the American Le-
gton employment bureau for any kind
Of work.
After enlistment in New York, the
recruits, almost all of whom had
served overseas with the American
army, were sent to Ceuta, Africa.
There they were informed,for the first
time that out Of their pay of AZ
pesetas day (about 60 cents) they
must buy their own uniform, food,
even arms and ammunition.
1T was the funniest war you ever
saw" declared George Dimond Of
Brooklyn, who explained that the hard
or you fought the more it would cost
you for ammunition. If man fought
very hard he would soon be deeply in
debt to the Spanish government. If,
on the other hand, he conserved am
munition and tried to save money, he
stood excellent chances Of being
picked off by Moor. Besides all
that, the Americans, who thought they
were to be officers, were assured that
they were welcomed only as privates.

THE SOFT ANSWER
By +. II. WALKER

WHEN you shall see, feel and

hesitate to admit its priceless value
In preserving the friendship OF peo-
pies and nations.
Though sponsor or all that is
good and noble in mankind there is
an illogical willingness in most Of
us to shun its charming companion
ship and turn to rougher acquuint-
ances.
Whene the world is jangling and
vicious tongues are splitting fire and
birthstone, it Is quite natural for us
to pile more fuel on the flame, re-
gardless Of the spreading conflagra-
tion, even though it be singeing the
good names of our friends.
We lose our grip on self-respect
until calmness comes with after
thought, and shows us the error of
our way.
Then, as the scales fall from our
eyes we become penitent.
For days we move shame-facedly
from pillar to post, avoiding the
friends we have hurt. And aside
from the terror of separation which
confronts us, we are tormented by
remorse which undoes our nerves and
throttles our spirits.
AS we reflect upon our behavior
we realize that our miseries come
from our own workshop. They are
not ground out in the mill of fate
tied In bulging bags and delivered al
our door, as apologetic folk would
have us believe, but Of our own grind.

TIENTSIN, PANORAMA
CITY

Tientsin, in the northeastern edge
OF the terrible Chinese famine area,
In which millions of people are starv-
ing to death, is like necklace of
towns strung together.
To walk about Tientsin is to travel.
An afternoons stroll from the native
to the British, French, Italian, Russian
and other foreign quarters, gives the
sensation Of magic tour through
Peking London, Paris, Rome and
Petrograd. And the windmills among
the salt mounds just outside the city
add touch of Holland.
This panorama city has had tenn
pestuous history. There a group Of
American and other foreign residents

defended themselves for month
against the fanatic Boxers in 1900.
Since then the native city has been
knoWn as Cheng-li, or "Town without
Walls" because the ancient barriers
were demolished during the siege. OF
the 500 doughty foreigners more than
fifty were killed and many others
wounded before military aid came.

The success Of the campaign against

foreign quarters as "Seng-ko-lin-sin's

THE FRIENDLY PATH
BY WALTER |. ROBINSON

IN ONT count over your bur-
IL dens. They'll seem great
er if you do.
1t is always poor policy to 20
about trying to find all the dis
concerting things along the
pathway of life. Those which
are of sufficient Importance to
command ones attention are
sure to bob up without a search.
Never meet trouble until trou-
BILE meets you. If it's going to
overtake you, it'll do soon
enough. 1t is always good pol
icy to be prepared for difficult
ties in order that they may cas-
lily be overcome. But to be
prepared does not mean that
one must constantly go about
with strings on his fingers 50
that he may not forget any of
the problems which are likely
to bob up.
Nearly all the stumbling
blocks along the trail followed
by humans in this world are i'm
aginary. But for their willing
ness to admit that they face Sc
r1ous problems, most of the dis
contented would hardly know
that they are battling against
odds when they actually are.
Because one has to face
trying task or great disappoint-
ment, does not mean that he is
more unfortunate than others,
nor that fate has turned against
him. No one ever passed down
the pathway to the valley Of
contentment Gas they believed
it) without working against
odds at times and not infre-
quently being displeased when
progress seemed slow. The
same is true in the efforts of all
who have tried to climb the
steep places on the way to sue
cess, for neither in arriving at
material goals nor in seeking
the peace of comforting sur
roundings will there not be
some troubles which have to be
met.
But when one counts over the
burdens which he expects or re-
grets, the future will usually ap-
pear to have darker aspect
than is justified by develop
ment-.
If enc tries to find the bright
side, he'll usually be so greatly
enthnsed by his prospects that
the burdeMs will seem small and
easy to face.
