Battery A, 260th Artillery, District
National Guard, departed last Tues
day by Norfolk steamer for Fort
Monroe, Va, for a 15-day encamp-
ment. The actual service is for II
days, commencing the date of depar-
ture from this city and including date
Of return, which will allow full
Is days training. Mai. Walter W.
Burns was very anxious that the
members of his command have the
benefit of the full training period au-
thorized by the War Department.
While the majority of the members
of the new battery are ex-serVlce
men and many of them formerly were
members of the old 60th Coast Artil-
lery with service prior to the world
war and during the war, yet this is
the first encampment to which Dis
trict National Guard artillerymen
have had an opportunity of attending
since the war. Consequently there
was much enthusiasm at the prospect
Of two weeks in camp. The battery
will return July 81.
The officers of the battery were
complimented by National Guard
Headquarters on the character of the
personnel enlisted. The men had the
appearance of seasoned regulars as
they embarked Tuesday. Mess was

Moral Power in Words.

Every idle word that men shall
speak. they shall give account there
of in the day of Observation-Disclosures W
1896
One of the most prolific sources
of immortality is the careless or per-
verted use of words.
We forget that words are symbols
OF ideas and are therefore actually
moral of immoral forces in the world.
II we are going to maintain our
spade"
Anything less means corruption
for ourselves and the beginning of
corruption for all who come after us.
For words are living things and,
according to usage, may be either
influences for good or for evil.
For example. how corrupting is
the lingo of thieves in which they
condone If they do not actually ap-
prove their nefarious trade.
Recall the language in which
Shakespeare's robbers speak of their
business and you see what I mean
Call a lie a LIB" and see how much
easier it becomes to lie.
Use fine language about an un-
worthy man and you lower yourself
and your hearers.
Speak lightly and unadvisedly con-
cerning sacred things and you open
the way for endless troubles.
The difference between praying
and cursing is the distinction be-
tween the right and wrong use of
words.
Words may be used to obscure as
we'll as to convey the truth.
1t is a SOLDERING fact to remember
that we shall give account of every
idle word that we speak.

Headache Cures.

Headaches are always due to some
very definite cause; eye strain, indi-

does not necessarily mean that you
need treatments or glasses. The eyes
may simply be temporarily weak. SO
that work which does not ordinarily
bother them becomes a strain.
Whether the cause is eye strain or
not, one of the best ways of attack

Sometimes an enema will relieve the
