DeadlOcked Italy.

Liberals, democrats and moderate socialists are seeking an alliance in Italy. Their leaders would like to present united front tOs the autocrat Mussolini and his henchmen in the next session of the Italian chamber. But when you come 10 analyze the situation in that country, you will wonder what they could possible accomplish against the blackshirt premier. His strength does not depend on his fascist deputies in the house, but on the fascist militia in the streets. Should the op- position become strong enough to OutvOte Mussolinis party, he still has his black le- giOns. Even if he were defeated he would only need to send out a call and the black shirts would march on Rome again and re- store him to power. Nothing but deadlock faces the Italian political situation at home. Mussolini rules by force. His promises to re- turn to a parliamentary system of govern ment at the tme of the Matteotti scandal he has apparently and conveniently forgotten. But he has out1ived and oustayed his glory. Some day force will beget force aud Muss0lini, instead of n liberator, will go down in his- tory as the man who plunged his native land into civil war and anarchy.

O'Connell, it is charged, offered Shortstop Sand $500 if he would throw the game. Sand was highly insulted. With the dollar at it's present value in America, any player would have been insulted.

DIMMING LIGHTS

trary to the general regulations
throughout the country. the State of
Wisconsin torbids motorists from
dimming their headlights. The rea-
son given is that dimming causes
more accidents than glazing head
lights.
Every one knows that bright
lights shining in the eye blind a per.
son and cause accidents" reads a
bulletin from the State highway de-
partment. Not so many people
know that suddenly dimming tine
headlights on passing another car
also blinds the driver and that this
procedure caused just as many high
way accidents as glazing lights"
The process is compared with step

before dimming were not a helpful
factor to the driver" the bulletin
goes on, 1.-The number of night acci.

Yet Wisconsin has a strict law
against glaring lights. The proper
kind of lights are those that can

In other words, we must have, as
Christian Science teaches, a trust
full, constant, firm confidence that
all that really is, meaning all that
has presence with us, power over
US, intelligence to enlighten and di-
rect US, is God, and thus good. Is
not this the 'Acquaint now thyself
with Him, and be at peace" and IS
there any other way in which n
trustful, constant, firm confidence
in God can be obtained, except
through learning that in very truth
God is the only Mind, the only
cause, as Christian Science declares
Him to be?
Like Jesus, Christian Science has
mot come to destroy. but to fulfill"
the law of God and Of His Christ,
and thus to fulfill every right, every
just law. The right application Of
the law Of Coz leads to it's fulfill
ment. The law of God is that man,
the reflection of God, must be obe-
dent to God, to all that is good; for
only in this way can he show forth
his pure, perfect, harmonious we'll
being, and be able to fulfill all right
demands upon him.

FEW days after the receipt
Al Of this letter from Colonel
Roosevelt, I was handed a
telegram from him which had been
sent from Mweru. It read:
Capt. Robert Foran,
Bona Trading Company,
Nairobi.
Meet me at Naivasha on Oct. 20.
Send to Peary following telegram
which you can publish. Quote.
Deeply appreciate your cable. I con-
graduate you from my heart. All
Tthe American people, and indeed all
civilized mankind are your debtors.
You have performed one of the
greatest feats of the ages. Roose-
Welt"
Immediately after sending me
this message for transmission to
Captain Peary, Colonel Roosevelt
started off on his hunt out of
Mweru for the Guaso Nyero. Ker-
nit had already gone off with Tarl-
ton to Lake Baringo. Their extra.
ordinary luck in hunting still held
good.
About the sixteenth of October. I
received news of their good fortune
