A FEARLESS EXPONENT OF RIGHT AND JUSTICE THE TULSA STAR OUR SUBSCRIPTION LIST MAKES A VALUABLE MEDIUM FOR ADVERTISING Official Organ of The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, And The Knights And Ladies of Harmony of The World, Oklahoma Jurisdiction Interset Grows in Big Popular Church Contest! Three Churches Claim'ng The Lead Today By Big Majorities Vol. 3, No. 19 Interset Three Churches Lead Today Churches Take a Lively Interest in Big Contest, Each Striving to Be Declared the Most Popular Church. Pastors Appointed Agents Last Sunday to Solicit Votes. The great campaign which is being waged by the churches of this city in the "Popular Church" contest inaugurated last Sunday by the Tulsa Star has grown to great proportions although less than a week has passed since it began. The campaign has opened up in the big way and from now on will be pushed by all the contestants, some five or six churches in this city, each of which has agents in the field battling for the honors. It is not known at this time what church is ahead, but the A. M. E. church, the Mt. Zion Baptist and the C. M. E. churches are all claiming the lead by big majorities. Some of the pastors have requested that the reports of the first week be withdrawn until next week, for that reason the public will not know the results of this weeks campaign until the next issue of the Star. Subscription or voting coupons were given each of the churches last Saturday and Sunday and each church appointed representatives to solicit subscribers for the Star. Rev. T J Jones, pastor of the M. E. church, has served notice that his church will not strive to win the prize but will take an active part in the contest to help swell the subscription list of the Star. Rev Jas A Johnson, pastor of the Vernon A M E church took up several minutes at each of his services Sunday saying nice things about the Star and editor. "The prize rightfully belong to us" he said, "but we've got to work hard to get it. The Star is our only mouth piece, and it is always outtime when it comes to defending the race It deserves our support, and we should support it Now, let's help to put the Star in every home in Tulsa." The good pastor then proceeded to tell of the sacrifice the editor has made to give Tulsa the best Colored paper in the state, and of the Star's consistent policy in fighting for right and decency Rev R A Whitaker, pastor of the Mt. Zion Baptist church, also paid gloring compliments to the Star and the editor In fact, it is said that the Star held its place in all the churches Sunday. Rev J F Kersh, pastor of the First Baptist church was not present Sunday but will fill his place in the pulpit next Sunday The second week of the contest will be one of lively interest among all the churches and will determine which church will get first honor Rules of the Contest. Each church will be given printed subscription blanks tomorrow morning. These blanks are printed so as to allow the subscriber to register votes to any church of his choice. The blanks will be in the hands of the pastors of the different churches who will give them out to those he may wish to work in this contest for his church. As fast as they are filled out and turned in at the office of the Star the votes each coupon represents will be duly credited to the church the voter designates and the results of the contest up to and including Thursday of each week will be published. Therefore, all subscriptions must be turned in by Thursday night of each week. How Votes are Counted. Last week it was announced that one and two months subscriptions would be accepted in this contest, but this has been changed so that now only three, six and twelve months subscriptions will be accepted. Old subscribers are eligible to vote in this contest as renewals or extension of previous subscriptions. The votes are counted as follows: Three months subscription, 250 votes. Six months subscription, 500 votes. One Year subscription, 1,000 votes. It is not necessary to be a member of any of the churches to vote. Anyone may vote for the church of his choice. Each church will have its own coupon on which the name of the church and its pastor will be printed. Churches Get Part of Money. A very important feature of this contest to be kept in mind is the fact that each church will get ten per cent The Leading Race Paper in The State of Oklahoma of the money it raises whether it wins the grand prize or not. This money will be paid every week as the subscriptions are turned in. Any further information will be cheerfully given on application. Call up any time. Phone 931. Star Wins Fight Reformatory For Negro Boys Will Not Be Located On The Langston University Ground The state school for incorrigible Negro boys will be located on the penitentiary grounds at McAlester. This was decided today at a conference between Governor Williams and representative Amos Ewin. The latter is author of the house bill appropriating $10,000 for the construction of the institution at Ladgston in Logan county. The bill is now pending in the senate, and will be amended so as to provide for the Me Alester site instead of Langston. Representative Ewing also secured assurance that $15,000 for maintenance of the institution for the next two years would be made a part of the general appropriation bill, which has not yet passed both houses. The negro school is to be located at a point two miles distant from the penitentiary property, according to terms agreed upon by Representative Ewing. Negroes Not Allowed to Vote Negroes Not Allowed to Vote Typewritten Notices and Guns Used to Frighten Negroes From Voting Poles in Pauls Valley. White Rufians Take the Law in Their Own Hands and Deprive Colored Citizens of Right to Vote. No Arrests, No Investigation and No Attempt on the Part of Negroes to Demand Their Rights. PAULS VALLEY, March, 17.—All Negroes here were notified by typewritten notices Monday night that the election today was to be a white man's election, and that they would be attended to if they attempted to participate in the election. This added to the excitement as the notices of the where Negroes lived, and then guns were fired immediately afterward to add a little zest to the notices. Colored Undertakers Called to Sapu'pa The colored people of Sapulpa will no longer have to pay first class prices for second class services to white undertakers who heretofore have refused to hire their hearses for funerals of colored people. It has been the custom of the undertakers of Sapulpa to use the "dead wagon" only in making colored funerals. This action has always been resented by the colored people there, but they had to accept that or nothing until the establishment of the Home Undertaking Company, colored, in this city. Last week a young colored woman died at Sapulpa and the white undertakers demanded an extortionate price to furnish a casket and the "dead wagon" The father of the girl, who is a reader of the Star, then called the Homo Undertakers of this city, whose advertisement is carried in this paper, and Mr Ragsdale made the trip furnishing the casket and a first class hearse for the same money wanted by the white undertakers of Sapulpa who would have used the "dead wagon" TULSA, OKLAHOMA, SATURDAY, MARCH 20.

National Health Week Program Two Years For Living With His Wife White Man Arrested in Texas and Sentenced to Two Years in Penn For Living with His Colored Wife Whom He had Lawfully Married in Minnesota. San Antonio, Texas, March 13.—Robert Odom, a young white man 20 years of age who was arrested here several weeks ago and placed in the county jail for living with his own wife, Celle Dorcy Odom, was tried and given two years under the State laws of Texas. This couple had in their possession a marriage certificate showing that they were lawfully married in Minnesota and under the laws of that State July, 1914, but being a plasterer by trade he came here to work bringing with him his Negro wife. On recommendation of the jury he was given a suspended sentence on the grounds that he had never been convicted before on a felony charge. (San Antonio Inquirer) Dunmore Found Not Guilty Dunmore Found Not Guilty Jury Decided That he Killed Fred Sanders at Sand Springs in Self Defense. Jes Dunmore, Negro was Tuesday afternoon acquitted by a jury in the superior court for the murder of Fred Sanders, another Negro, on January 31 at Sand Springs. It was freely predicted, after Dunmore took the witness stand in his own behalf, that he would be freed of the charge. The evidence against him was very weak and was conclusive that he killed Sanders in self defense. Dunmore testified on the stand that Sanders cornered him with a long knife and was preparing to shash him when he fired the first shot. He said when he fired the second shot that Sanders had raised himself from the table where he leaned after the first shot and was making a second attempt to (contined on page eight clum four) Clean Up Week to be Observed Here From March 21 to 27 What to do During Clean-up Week. 1.

Colored Jitneys Doing Well in Tex. They Are Making More Money Than Autos for Whites as Street Cars Are Unpopular. AUSTIN, Tex., March 13—In Austin and other towns of Texas, jitney service for the exclusive use of Negroes has been introduced. These cars are liberally patronized. When the "Jim Crow" law, which requires that Negroes and whites be seated separately in street cars, was passed a few years ago, a movement was inaugurated in Houston, Austin and other towns of the state by Negroes to boycott the street cars. For a time this organized plan of showing disapproval of the race separation law had strong support on the part of Negroes, but gradually they got tired of walking. The introduction of the jitney automobile, however, was welcomed by Negroes who objected to being seated in the rear ends of street cars. The jitney automobiles for Negroes are owned and driven by men of that race. It is stated that these Negro jitneys are making more money than those that are in service for white people. Star Will Havc Branch Office Former Muskogean will be in Charge of Branch Office at Bartlesville. The Tulsa Star will have a branch office at Bartlesville, Okla., after this week which will be under the personal supervision of Mr. F. E, Dickson, formerly of Muskogee. Mr. Dickson is a high ceasar tailor and in connection with his work for the Star will conduct a first class tailor shop. Hereafter the Star will contain weekly reports of Bartlesville news. NOTICE! The local Business League will meet in the office of the Tulsa Star Monday night for the purpose of taking up some very important matters and electing officers for the new year All members and any others who may desire are requested to be present at this meeting Contest! Colored Compny to Launch New Plans Oklahoma Realty and Investment Co. May Open up avenues of Employment for colored People The Oklahoma Realty and Investment Company of this city, a chartered institution incorporated under the laws of Oklahoma, will launch a new movement in the near future which will have for its purpose the establishment of a local factory of some kind to give employment to colored people. This company owns a valuable lot in this city on which it is thought a two or three story building will be erected with the object of creating work for two or three hundred people. It is not definitely decided at this time what lines of industry will be engaged in, but the board of directors will probably decide this question at its next meeting. This is a big scheme but a worthy one which should meet the hearty approval of every colored man and woman in the state. Thousands of boys and girls are being turned out of school annually with nothing to do because their opportunities are limited. A manufacturing concern of this kind would afford employment for hundreds of boys and girls as skilled laborers, clerks, or bookkeepers, stenographers, shipping clerks, field agents, foremen and various other positions which at this time are closed to them, and it would doubtless be supported by every colored family in the state. J B Stradford of this city is president of the company and is heart and soul into the new movement Says First Baptist Church is Dying Rev R N Holt in Sermon at First Baptist Church Last Sun Sounds Warning to Complaining Members. Admonishing Them to Stop Kicking And Hold up the Hands of Their Pastor In a very able sermon preached at the First Baptist church here last Sunday, Rev R N Holt caused a sensation when he accused the members of that church of disloyalty to their pastor He said the report had gone out broadcast over the state that the First Baptist church of this city was dying because no misister could please the members The text of his sermon was "If My Soul Was in Your Soul's Stead I Could Heap up Words Against You" He told of the good qualities of the pastor, Rev J F Kersh, who was then away in Arkansas where he went to bury his wife, saying among other things, "He is a God-sent man, capable of leading you if you will follow him" Rev Holt plead with the members of that church to stop finding fault and hold up the hands of their pastor THREE BIG MEETINGS FOR TULSA Knights of Phytthias, Odd Fellows and U B Fs Will Hold Their Annual Conventions in Tulsa This Year At a conference held by District Grand Master of the Odd Fellows of Oklahoma in this city early this week it was decided to hold the next annual Grand Lodge meeting of that order in Tulsa, rescinding the action of the last grand lodge in voting the meeting for El Reno This action was taken, the grand master says, because Tulsa is more centrally located and will therefore make it easier on hundreds of delegates who live in the south and eastern part of the state and who form the major part of the delegation The K of Ps and the U B Fs will also meet in this city, these being three of the largest orders in the state PAGE TWO A BAD CASE AND ITS RELIEF Lady Tells Details of Ten Years Of Suffering Which Now Lies Behind Her. Wallace, Va—Mrs. Mary Vest, of this town, says: "About ten years ago, I had very poor health, and for five years it steadily got worse. I could not stand on my feet. I got so I could only drag about in the room. Most of the time I was not able to do my work. I had terrible bearing down pains, my back ached all the time and was very weak. I could scarcely carry anything and suffered agony when I lifted anything. The muscles in my abdomen were so weak I could scarcely lift myself up straight, and I thought I would surely grow crooked. I had difficulty in walking, it was so painful. I suffered in hips and back and could hardly raise up at all. At times, I couldn't sit on the chair—would have to lie down. I was in such agony. I just sat around and cried. At this time, about five years ago, I began to take Cardul, at my mother's insistence. After two or three weeks' use I saw an improvement. The pains got less gradually until they disappeared. In two months I could walk without pain and could do most of my work. For about three years my improvement was steady and continued until I had back my health and strength. The cure has been permanent, for I have been in good health for the past two years, due to my having taken Cardul, which effected the cure." All druggists sell Cardul. Try it.—Adv. GUNNING FOR THE AIRSHIPS Modern Warfare Has Developed New Field That Calls for Scientific Marksmanship. The advent of the aeroplane and the airship has introduced a hard problem for the rifleman whose duty it is to bring down hostile craft of this kind, says Popular Mechanics. Even with its enormous speed the bullet discharged by a modern rifle is not fast enough for the aeroplane, as has been discovered in the European war, but the expert riflemen who are constantly on the watch for hostile air craft are fast learning the requirements for hitting these swiftly moving targets. He no longer aims at an aeroplane when trying to bring it down, but at a point about six lengths ahead of the machine. The airman running the hostile craft also knows this and, when under fire, seldom fires in a straight line if he can help it, but follows a zigzag course. The Zeppelin is a much slower-moving craft and can be "plugged" about the center of the envelope if the rifle man aims at its nose. Fiction and Reality It is a simple truth to say that many things happen in fiction which would be quite impossible in fact, as any censor knows. It is in failing to distinguish between these two that many artists and most critics blunder and this error is in effect the same as that of the ambitious actor who, having once to play the part, for the first time, of an intoxicated ruffian in a certain melodrama, went to a neighbor boring tavern and intoxicated himself. He thought that this would storm the house, but on the contrary he was immediately fired by the management for a fool—and rightly—F. H. Martin, in the Book Buyer. Couldn't Get It.

CHILDREN SHOWED IT Effect of Their Warm Drink in the Morning. "A year ago I was a wreck from coffee drinking and was on the point of giving up my position in the school room because of nervousness. "I was telling a friend about it and she said, 'We drink nothing at meal time but Postum, and it is such a comfort to have something we can enjoy drinking with the children. "I was astonished that she would allow the children to drink any kind of coffee, but she said Postum was not coffee, but a most healthful drink for children as well as for older ones, and that the condition of both the children and adults showed that to be a fact. "I was in despair and determined to give Postum a trial, following the directions carefully. It was a decided success and I was completely won by its rich delicious flavor. "In a short time I noticed a decided improvement in my condition and kept growing better month after month, until now I am healthy, and do my work in the school room with ease and pleasure. I would not return to nerve-destroying coffee for any money." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. Postum comes in two forms: Regular Postum—must be well boiled. 15c and 25c packages. Instant Postum—is a soluble powder. A teaspoonful dissolves quickly in a cup of hot water and, with cream and sugar, makes a delicious beverage instantly. 30c and 50c tins. Both kinds are equally delicious and cost per cup about the same. "There's a Reason" For Postum. —sold by Grocers. AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS If permanent results are to be secured, the Negro who actually cultivates the land must be reached and trained into growing a good producing crop. How can this be done? My answer would be, by putting a Negro farm demonstration agent into every county of the South where there is any considerable number of Negro farmers. This Negro demonstration agent should be a man of good common sense. He should be a man who knows the characteristics of the colored people, who knows how to reach them in and through their societies, their churches and their various organizations of one kind and another. He should be a man required to travel from one farm to another throughout the country training the Negro farmer how to produce a food crop. Wherever these demonstration agents have already been at work in the South they have done work which has been most helpful and commendable. If this important work is to be done, no time should be lost in selecting these demonstration agents. The cost should not be large. Either through county appropriations or from some part of the state funds appropriated for agricultural purposes, a portion of the money for the salary perhaps could be provided. Appropriations are also being made by the United States government to encourage and promote various kinds of agricultural work. Some part of this money, I feel sure, might be secured from the Sugitha-Lever fund, or from the United States demonstration fund administered through Dr. Bradford Knapp. While I am not in position to suggest just where the money may be secured, I think if an earnest effort is made some portion of it can be secured from some of the funds or agencies here mentioned—Booker T. Washington. On the night of Lincoln's birthday, February 12, at the annual meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in Ethical culture hall, New York city, Governor Whitman of New York state made an address and awarded the Spingarn medal. This medal, which is of gold, valued at $100, is offered annually by Dr. J. E. Spingarn, chairman of the board of directors of the National association, to the man or woman of African descent and of American citizenship who shall have made the highest achievement during the preceding year in any field of elevated or honorable human endeavor, whether that field be intellectual, spiritual, physical, scientific, commercial, educational or any other. The medal is awarded for the first time this year and the committee making the decision consists of Bishop John Hurst, chairman; ex-President Taft, John Hope, president of Morehouse college; Dr. James H. Dillard, director of the Jeanes and Slater funds, and Oswold Garrison Villard, president of the New York Evening post company. In addition to Governor Whitman there were other distinguished speakers at the meeting on February 12: Moorfield Storey, the well-known attorney of Boston and president of the National association; Prof. William Pickens of Wiley university; Mirza Ali Kull Kahn, representative of Persia to the United States, and Lincoln Bates, Jr., who told of racial progress in South America. Mr. Villard presided. In commemoration of the memory of Frederick A. Douglass and John M. Langston, a large number of Negro residents of Washington attended the meeting of the Bethel Literary and Historical association of Metropolitan A. M. E. church. The eulogy of both of these former representatives of the colored race was given by J. C. Napier of Nashville, Tenn., son-in-law of the latter, and an address dealing with the achievements and character of both was given by John C. Dancy, former recorder of deeds. Mrs. Lettie Langston Napier also talked of her father's life. Others who spoke were Rev. C. H. Stephens, L. C. Gregory, F. D. Lee, James H. Marshall and Messrs. Smith and Maxfield. Frank Williams recited an original poem entitled "Fifty Years of Freedom." Music was furnished by the E. Azalya Hackley chorus, James A. Wright, director, and Mrs. Martha Ligons, accompanist.

THE TULSA STAR AN CULLINGS BRITAIN'S STARVE NEW ORDER POSES SEIZU The oldest Negro publishing house in the country is operated by the African Episcopal church at 361 Pine street, Philadelphia. Here all the hymn books, church dictionaries and other church literature are published. Here, since 1852, the Christian Recorder, the oldest Negro newspaper in existence, has been published. Here, since 1882, the oldest Negro magazine, the A. M. E. Review, also has been published. Here many of the books written by Negroes have been printed. The largest and without doubt best equipped Negro publishing house is also operated by this church. It is the Sunday School Union at Nashville, which supplies nearly 300,000 Negro children with their Sunday school literature, taking nearly 50 persons to do the work. This literature is written, printed and distributed by Negroes. Connected with this department is a Sunday schoc1 journal called The Young Allenite, a young people's journal called the Allen Endeavor and a weekly paper, the Southern Christian Recorder. The church started 100 years ago, with less than 400 members; it now has three-quarters of a million; and raises annually about $4,000,000. Its property is worth $12,000,000. It has over 6,000 churches and 7,500 preachers. Its general financial scheme is based upon a tax of $1 for each member. This goes to pay the salaries of bishops, general officers, pensions of widows, retired bishops, orphans, superannuated preachers, etc. Other departments are church extension, young people's, the Western Christian Recorder. To rationalize education throughout the country has been and is the purpose of those making for the nation's progress. As the great majority of men are engaged today in constructive work—that industrial, technical, commercial and institutions of training for that are growing in number everywhere the note of progress is decided. The rationalization of the educational system for the Negro should find cooperative action now among intelligent people of both races. Just as the Boston School of Technology initiated in the country the practical form of education for which the nation's inventive and constructive forces made demand; just as the tidal wave bringing industrial training to the South came to save a social inertia, as well as one educational, Hampton institute, Virginia, has come as the prophet of that spirit of educational light which the Negra race may look to as their star of hope and guide to progress. Hampton institute trains men and women to lead the men and women of their race in avenues of usefulness. It inculcates the building up of the racial standards which home the basic principles, and the watchword of the school I would define as racial responsibility—the responsibility not only of individual development, but of the race's development. Ammonia bombs are being used in some of the national forests in America to extinguish forest fires, especially in connection with brush fires, where the fire fighters cannot get near enough to the burning area to beat out the flames. Too many men are expecting to catch a ride on the road to success.—Albany Journal. According to the preliminary report of the census bureau, just published, the colored population of the country has been making a good record of progress, measured by the returns of the decade with which development it deals. They have increased in number, though at a much lower rate than the native whites, and far below the record of the foreign born whites. In the ten year period the total value of the farm property operated by Negroes has more than doubled and now exceeds very considerably $1,000,000.000. But perhaps the most encouraging gain of all is the advance that has been made in education. In 1910 more than 57 per cent of the blacks were reported as illiterate. That has now been reduced to a little over 30 per cent. If the 1920 census shows as well for them, the white people may find themselves left behind, at least in elementary education.—Boston Transcript.

IN RETALIATION FOR SUBMARINES Confiscation Part of Program. America Greatly Displeased Over England's Uncompromising Washington—Great Britain's order in council, explaining her embargo on all neutral countries was received with such evident disappointment by high officials of the United States government that a strong protest against its terms was considered in official quarters as certain to be made soon. Senator Hoke Smith, who saw President Wilson, said afterwards that the British order in council was "high handed and utterly intolerable." The arrival of the British order together with news of the flat rejection by Great Britain and her allies of the informal proposals of the United States for the abandonment by Germany of her submarine warfare if England permitted food stuffs to go to the civilian population of enemy countries, destroyed the hopes of President Wilson and his advisers for the early improvement of conditions for the neutral commerce of the world. Germany had accepted practically all the American suggestions. Without Precedent. Officials declined to comment to any extent on the British order but their displeasure over its contents was apparent. It was pointed out there was no precedent for Great Britain's action. Summed up, officials interpreted the British order as meaning that without enforcing a blockade on the German coast itself but by stopping American ships anywhere on the high seas, cargoes destined for Germany would be taken into prize courts for interminal litigation. Cruiser Dresden Is Sunk London.—The sinking of the German cruiser Dresden near the Juan Fernandez islands has been officially announced by the admiralty. So has been ended the career of the second of Germany's original sea raiders, which, with the cruiser Emden, destroyed several months ago, sent to the bottom of the sea so many of the allies' vessels. Several times the Dresden has been engaged, yet escaped, and it took three of Great Britain's sea fighters to corner and sink her. The admiralty's statement follows: "On March 14 at 9 a. m. H. M. S. Glasgow, Captain John Luce R. N. H. M. auxiliary cruiser Orama, Captain John Seagrave, R. N., and H. M. S. Kent, Captain John D. Allen, C. B., R. N., caught the Dresden near Juan Fernandez islands. "An action ensued and after five minutes fighting the Dresden hauled down her colors and displayed the white flag. she was much damaged and set on fire, and after she had been burning for some time her magazine exploded and she sank." CARRANZA BOWS TO PRES. WILSON Abandona His Blockade of the Port of Progreso. Washington.—General Carranza has abandoned his blockade of the port of Progreso on urgent representations by the United States. The gunboat Zaragoza has been called off and two American ships laden with sisal for the United States were cleared Saturday without interference. Rear Admiral Caperton, commanding the American fleet in Mexican waters, reported the raising of the blockade and reported that the Zaragoza has returned to Vera Cruz. The admiral's dispatches crossed a new note, sent by President Wilson on its way to Carranza giving notice that the United States was determined to raise the blockade and if necessary use the cruiser Des Moines to do so. The seriousness of the situation growing out of the blockade of Progreso was pointed out by Secretary Houston of the department of agriculture who advised the president that 200,000,000 pounds of twine are used each year in the United States in binding grain, flax and corn crops, and that nine-tenths of the supply is made from sisal grown in Yucatan and exported through Progreso. It became known that last week the Mexican gunboat had stopped one American ship with a shot across her bows, held held up another and had interfered with British shipping. Telegrams from manufacturers and farmers in the grain growing states pouring into the White House and the state department pointed out that unless sisal were obtained through Progresso the harvesting of this year's grain crop by the usual methods would be embarrassed and would have to be done almost entirely by hand. Secretary Houston said the situation was a very serious one for the grain states Without Precedent. Don't exaggerate or misrepresent an article advertised in this page. e Undertaking Co.

TULSA, OKLA Phone 3337 TULSA, OKLA GAS, DYSPEPSIA AND INDIGESTION "Pape's Diapepsin" settles sour gassy stomachs in Five minutes—Time It! You don't want a slow remedy when your stomach is bad—or an uncertain one—or a harmful one—your stomach is too valuable; you mustn't injure it. Pape's Diapepsin is noted for its speed in giving relief; its harmlessness; its certain unfalling action in regulating sick, sour, gassy stomachs. Its millions of cures in indigestion, dyspepsia, gastritis and other stomach troubles has made it famous the world over. Keep this perfect stomach doctor in your home—keep it handy—get a large fifty-cent case from any dealer and then if anyone should eat something which doesn't agree with them; if what they eat lays like lead, ferments and sours and forms gas; causes headache, dizziness and nausea; eructations of acid and undigested food—remember as soon as Pape's Diapespin comes in contact with the stomach all such distress vanishes. Its promptness, certainty and ease in overcoming the worst stomach disorders is a revelation to those who try it.—Adv. It Pays to Pray, and Advertise. "Do you believe in the efficacy of prayer?" asked the new minister. "You bet!" triumphantly replied Sam Stinger, the enterprising real estate dealer.

Try Grandma's Recipe of Sage and Sulphur and Nobody Will Know. Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur properly compounded, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is musky and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy." You will get a large bottle for about 50 cents. Everybody uses this old, famous recipe, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.

Serve in glasses with canned or fresh berries. Graham gems are quickly prepared, and usually well liked. The following is a good recipe: Graham Gems.— Take a half cupful each of sour cream and sour milk, add a teaspoonful of soda, a half teaspoonful of salt, a beaten egg, a cupful of white flour and a half cupful of graham flour. Beat well and bake in gem pans. Serve with honey. Chocolate Spice Cake.—Beat two eggs, add a cupful of sugar, two tablespoonfuls of butter, four tablespoonfuls of chocolate, one-fourth of a teaspoonful each of nutmeg, cinnamon, all spice and mace, and a half cupful of water and one and one-half cupfuls of flour, which has been sifted with a teaspoonful of baking powder. Mix in the order given, beating well and bake in greased muffin pans. Mexican Rice With Bacon.—Fry three pieces of bacon until crisp, then add a third of a cupful of rice and brown in the bacon fat, add four tomatoes, one large pepper and a medium-sized onion, all cut up, and pour over the rice and bacon. As it cooks add water enough to keep the rice from sticking. Cook slowly for three quarters of an hour, then season and add a small piece of butter when ready to serve. Rye Popovers.—Mix and sift together a third of a cupful of rye meal and two-thirds of a cupful of flour, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt, and gradually, beating constantly, one and a third cupfuls of milk and two well-beaten eggs. Fill hot buttered pans and bake 40 minutes. Add a few raisins to the sweet potatoes when they are being baked in sugar and butter. The flavor is very attractive. Here are a few that the men are especially fond of: ture to cool, then stir in two well-beaten eggs and a cupful of fresh, crisp cracker crumbs. To be sure they are crisp, dry them in the oven before rolling them. Put a tablespoonful of bacon fat in the frying pan and when smoking hot fry the oysters until brown on both side. Serve at once when cooked. Priscilla Cake.—Work a fourth of a cupful of butter with a spatula, add one cupful of sugar, two eggs well beaten, and a half cupful of milk alternately with one and two-thirds cupuis of pastry flour, sifted, with two and a half teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Turn into buttered tins and bake in layers. Fill with either caramel or mango filling. Bean Chowder—Wash two cupfuls of red Mexican beans; soak over night in two quarts of water. In the morning add a medium-sized onion and cook until the beans are tender, adding water so that they keep the two quarts. When the beans are tender add two medium-sized potatoes, cut in dice; one pint of strained tomatoes, and a cup of macaroni. Boil for an hour. Season with salt, pepper and add diced, fried bacon, with two tablespoonfuls of the bacon fat. This dish is good reheated. Half of this quantity will be sufficient for the ordinary family. Hot Potato Salad—Cook potatoes in dice, drain and add chopped onion, bits of bacon and enough bacon fat and vinegar to form a dressing. Nellie Maxwell Tells of things new and delicious to tempt the Palate Mankind are always happier for having been happy; so that if you make them happy now, you make them happy again.

Six minutes of cooking, if the pan is smoking hot, will be sufficient. Arrange on a hot platter, sea- quickly in a hot frying pan with butter. Six minutes of cooking, if the pan is smoking hot, will be sufficient. Arrange on a hot platter, season well and sur round with sliced bananas, also sauteed in butter. To the fat in the pan add a fourth of a cupful of water, one-half teaspoonful of beef extract, one tablespoonful of butter and a few dashes of salt. Pour the gravy around the fillets and garnish with sprigs of parsley. Hamburg Stake en Casserole. Prepare and season the steak with a dash of cloves and onion juice, with salt and pepper. Make in small cakes and brown on both sides. Place in a casserole with button onions, carrots and potatoes cut in balls; cover with stock and cook slowly until the vegetables are tender. In broiling steak over coals or under gas or in pan broiling, the steak should be quickly seared on both sides to keep in all the juice, then the cooking may be prolonged more slowly until the degree of rareness is reached to suit the taste. Steak With Clams or Oysters.—Broll a sirloin for five minutes, searing well on both sides, remove to a platter, butter well and cover with clams from which the tough muscle has been removed or with fresh oysters. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and dot with bits of butter. Place on the top grate of a hot oven and cook until the shellfish are done. Hollandaise sauce is another; to prepare; wash a half cupful of butter, and divide it into thirds. Put one piece in a small saucepan or double boiler, add a tablespoonful of lemon juice and the yolks of two eggs, stir constantly with a wire whisk while the mixture is cooking; when the butter is melted, add another piece and then the third. Remove from the heat and add salt, a dash of cayenne and a tablespoonful of finely-minced parsley. If left a minute too long the sauce will separate. Spread this sauce over steak just as it gets to the table.

When a heavy dinner has been provided, a simple, easily digested dessert should follow. Gelatin in some form is most easy of digestion, is simple to prepare and if accompanied with good rich milk or thin cream, makes a most appetizing dessert. As there are several different gelatin flavors so prepared with fruit sert should follow. Gelatin in some form is most easy of digestion, is simple to prepare and if accompanied with good rich milk or thin cream, makes a most appetizing dessert. As there are several different gelatin flavors so prepared with fruit flavoring one simply dissolves a package in a pint of boiling water and it is ready to mold. Serve plain or by the addition of fresh fruits, nuts and whipped cream it will make a more elegant dessert. Paradise Pudding—To a pint of lemon jelly, add a half cupful of blanched and shredded almonds, a dozen marshmallows cut in quarters, a dozen candled cherries, cut in bits, put into a mold and stand until firm. Serve whipped cream heaped around the mold. Banana Cream.—Rub five large bananas smooth with five tablespoonfuls of sugar, then add a cupful of cream beaten stiff. Mix with a pint of lemon jelly and pour into a mold to harden. Serve with whipped cream. Orange Bavarian Cream.—Prepare a pint of orange jelly and when it begins to harden fold in a pint of whipped cream which has been sweetened with a half cupful of sugar. Mold and serve cold with cream. A Lemon Waldorf Dessert.—Chop rather fine a cupful of good tart apple add a half cupful of nuts and a cupful of celery finely cut, using only the tender portions. Mix with a lemon jelly, mold and serve with mayonnaise dressing on lettuce leaves. R LADIES OF F A Department Devoted to the Personal Interests of Friends of the Tuls SHOW MANY CHANGES COMING SEASON'S STYLES ARE TO BE "DIFFERENT." Seems Sure That the Straight Girdle Is to Return—Empire Line for Evening Frocks—High Collar Is Not Coming Back. The sketches that have been sent over from Paris as forerunners of the spring and summer styles show a marked tendency to straight girdles passed around the figure directly at the line where the old waist used to be before we allowed the natural largeness of the figure to have its T Tea Gown of Yellow Chiffon and Silver Lace, With Girdle of Purple Satin. fullest development there. These belts could not be worn with the frock, or skirt and separate blouse that shows a small decrease of size between the bust and the hips. White or light muslin frocks have a belt of three-inch black velvet ribbon which is a decided return to the days when small waists were in fashion. The Empire line is also accentuated in evening frocks and short jackets, but one does not yet see it on day frocks; the individualist may try it out, but the average dressmaker is content to work out the return to the normal waist, which is no slight problem in itself. You may think that the problem of the women who must get a small waist is the more difficult one, as flesh has a way of remaining where it has gained a strong hold, but, after all, the corsetiere faces the worst of the work. Unless she knows how to skillfully handle the shaping of a corset and can contrive to give it a flexible appearance at the normal waist line, the work of the dressmaker is in vain and the task of the woman who wants a small waist is almost impossible. Again has a body blow been dealt the woman who is stout. The large waist line was her hope to be fashionable, and if it be taken away, what will she do to be rightly dressed? There is little insistence upon the fashion for the high collar. Some of the best-dressed women are returning to the rolling low one, and in Paris they are wearing a collar that is high at the back and cut away in front. There is no return to the shape that shows the entire back of the neck, but evidently women have thrust aside the enveloping band under the chin. That dire promise of an increased double chin worked wonders in gaining a refusal for an uncomfortable fashion. New blouses have height at the back of the neck always, but they roll down to the bust in the accepted way of last summer. The straight surplice is also accepted with its outline of white silk net or fine muslin. There is little disposition on the part of any of the new collars to lift at the side. They press flatly to the sides of the blouse, or are placed beneath the fabric, showing as a softening piping. (Copyright, 1915, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) Sweet Simplicity.

Allow the mix Julia Bottomley's Latest Ideas on International Fashions ALL ALONG SIMPLE LINES Absence of Frivolity is the Distinguishing Mark of the Blouses of the Moment. The blouse of today carries with it just those new touches which are so typical of the moment, and which combine so well the freshness of novelty and the idea of utility. For every garment at present makes a show at least of comparative simplicity and an absence of frivolity. Sometimes this is only a show, and in reality this the plainly and even severely cut garment requires more careful cutting and masterly handling, and is therefore really more expensive than its more frivolous predecessor. In the matter of blouses, however, this is not the case, and the best new models are most happy in a true simplicity, which is quite the newest note in fashion, and has no exaggerations so far! The most characteristic touches about these new blouses are the high, close collars and the long, tight sleeves, both conveying a cozy snugness. But we are becoming more sensible in the matter of dress. No more airy and transparent garments for winter wear and no heavy clothes and furs for the summer! Another seasonable note at present is the marked absence of transparent materials for morning wear, chiffon, lace and tulle being relegated to afternoon and evening models, excepting in the matter of collars and tiny vests. The high velvet blouse, with long sleeves and an upstanding frill or a very small turn-over collar of lace, is one of the best models. It has a scalloped edge, buttoned over a vest of velvet, though this vest might be made of self-colored chiffon or net, and a tiny pointed collar of net turned down over the upstanding collar of velvet. The sleeves are set a lit full into the shoulder and terminating in a tight scalloped and buttoned cuff. The square shoulders are another very popular touch, and make a change from the kilono-cut sleeve, which, though becoming and easy to wear, does not fit under a coat with anything like the comfort of these sleeves fitted into an armhole. DICTATES OF FASHION The braiding on velvet gowns in most elaborate. A straight line at the base of the neck is decidedly trying. Orange blossom girdles are a feature on the new bridal robes. Sashes now often mold the hips, but require the greatest care in arrangement. Half and half stockings are new and striking. The upper part of these new stockings are in decided contrast to the lower part. In the coming season there will be a great deal of black millinery braid used, also neutral shades and shades matching the dress goods. IN LATEST FASHION IN EXTENSION PROMISE Dress of White Silk With Black Lace Tunic Trimmed With Fur. Corsage of White Beaded Net With Black Beaded Flowers. A New Silk. There is a new silk out, by the way, in deep dark blue on which is a printed border in deep red and a bright tone of blue. This alds the dressmaker in a most gratifying way to solve the problem of trimming. If we are to wear simple lines, and to depend on our original material for our effects, then we may often be in despair as to how to get in our color. On an Old Hat.

SUNK AMERICAN MERCHANTMAN And Nine Other Vessels In Four Months' Voyage.—Driven Into Newport News by British Cruisers. Washington.—Unless the German government voluntarily offers to make restitution for the destruction of the American ship Frye, sunk by the converted cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich in the South Atlantic, and expresses regret for the occurrence, strong protest will be made by the United States with a request for reparation. Officials were unanimous in their opinion—and it was shared largely by diplomatists, too—that the commander of the Prinz Eitel had no right to send the Frye to the bottom. It was considered probable by the officials that the German government, after being apprised of the facts, would admit the error of the naval commander and agree to make the usual reparation. Some officials thought sufficient amends, after the payment of damages, would be the court martialing of the German officer. Captain Kiehne of the Frye has been asked to keep the members of his crew together so that all the testimony necessary for diplomatic correspondence may be gathered. Examination of precedents in international law revealed to state department officials that the general rules of maritime practice have prohibited the destruction of a neutral vessel under the circumstances which the Frye was found in the South Atlantic by the Prinz Eitel Americans Always Cautioned. It was said in official quarters that the American government took note of the fact that American citizens by their enforced presence on board a German cruiser for more than a month had been subject to unnecessary risks which might have involved serious danger to them and that this probably would be one of the points in the correspondence between the United States and Germany over the incident. COMES TO PORT FOR REPAIRS Eitel Friedrich Faces Immediate Capture When She Puts To Sea. Newport News, Va.—The German auxiliary cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich, after a marine wrecking tour of Pacific and Atlantic oceans which culminated in the sinking of an American sailing ship in the south Atlantic January 28 last, limped into this port and anchored for supplies and repairs. The German vessel was chased into port by British cruisers which are waiting outside the three-mile limit and an immediate capture will probably result from her attempt to go to sea. The German cruiser began her expedition at Tsing Tan, China, last November. Commander Thierichens of the Eitel Friedrich admits sinking eight merchant ships, three British, three French, one Russian and one American. The sinking of the American ship, William P. Frye, a sailing vessel bound from Seattle to Queenstown with 5,200 tons of wheat, most concerned port officials here and the Washington government. DREAM CITY IS VISUALIZED Whole Town Devotes Its Energies to Making Moving Pictures. Universal City, Calif—On March 15, President Carl Laemmle of the Universal Film Corporation, formally opened the only municipality in the world entirely devoted to moving pictures—Universal City, California. All the elephants, camels and other wild animals in cages in the Universal City too met the Eastern forces of the Universal in Los Angeles and paraded through the streets out to Universal City. Within the boundaries of Universal City the visitors from the East and from California were entertained by the taking of views of an enormous flood scene in which an entire village is to be washed away by the breaking of a reservoir. A big wild west show with Indian war dances and an attack upon the great Universal City block-house followed the flood scene, and finally, the taking of an episode of the Black Box was shown. Among the Oklahoma guests present was C. D. Mattingly, manager of the Oklahoma City branch of the company. British Make Advances London. Under cover of the fire of heavy French artillery, British troops have captured Neuve Chappelle. $3\frac{1}{2}$ miles north of La Bassee. This success, including the taking of 1,000 prisoners and several machine guns, makes it the most considerable advance reported from the north of France for several months, and if made in force the advance is strategically of great importance as the position commands the road between La Bassee and Lille. THE TULSA STAR MRS. JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER DEAD Tarrytown. N. Y.-Mrs. John D.

WAR'S GREATEST BATTLE RAGING MILLION MEN ENGAGED IN FIGHTING IN POLAND. Germans Sink British Cruiser and Two Hundred of the Crew Are Lost. London.—Just as the French attacked the Germans in the western campaign when Field Marshal Von Hindenburg made his big rush for East Prussia last month, so the British army operating in Flanders has undertaken the task of relieving the pressure on its Russian ally now that the Russians again are being attacked in North Poland. The battle taking place on the eastern front, experts say, is the biggest pitched battle of the war, no less than a million men being engaged in it. The Germans in their official report claim to have made some advance, while Petrograd considers it likely that the Russians will have to fall back beyond Przasnysz, as they did last month before making their stand. It probably will be days before a result is attained in this battle, as with the frozen raods the Russians can push forward reinforcements and choose their battle ground. Meanwhile another German army has appeared on the Pilica river front south of Vistula, probably, military observers say with the idea of inducing Grand Duke Nicholas to withdraw men from the north where the real blow is being struck. Further south, along the foothills of the Carpathians fighting between the Austrains and Russians continues amid wintry conditions. Strangely enough each side claims that the other is doing the attacking but it is believed here that as the Austrians initiated this battle, they probably are still the aggressors. Prince Von Beulow at last has raised the question of territorial concessions to Italy as the price of Italy's friendship. Germany, it is declared, is doing the negotiating on behalf of her ally, Austria, whose territory is involved. It is said that Germany is trying to induce Austria to cede to Italy both Trent and Trieste. Baron Von Burian, the austrian foreign minister, according to report does not oppose the cession of the Trent but strongly objects to parting with Trieste while the aged Austrian emperor refuses to consent to the loss of any part of his dominions. It is reported that Germany desires to have the matter settled now, in the fear that should the Dardanelles be forced Italy would be more than ever inclined to throw in her lot with the allies so as to insure the safety of her interests in the eastern Mediterranean depending upon her army to recover her lost provinces nearer home. German emissaries, according to dispatches to the British newspapers also are busy in Bucharest and Sofa endeavoring to point out to Roumania and Bulgaria why these countries should remain neutral. Steamers continue to anounce the sighting of German submarines around the coast of England. British Cruiser Destroyed By Torpedo. The admiralty announces the loss of the auxiliary cruiser Bayano, while the vessel was engaged in patrol duty. The Belfast correspondent of the Daily Telegraph says the Bayano was torpeded Thursday morning, March 11, off Corssail, Wigtownshire, Scotland, and that nearly 200 lives were lost as the cruiser sank almost immediately. The vessel had a crew of about 216 men on board. Wigtownshire is the southwestermost county in Scotland. It lies on the north channel which leads into the Irish sea from the Atlantic. The 26 survivors of the Bayano were rescued by the Belfast steamer Balmerino. They were afloat on a raft. Another steamer picked up one of the Bayano's life boats which was drift and also two of her rafts. The survivors were landed at Ayr. Mary Are Lost. THOUSANDS SEE BEACHET DIE AEROPLANE COLLAPSES AS DAR ING PILOT STARTS SPIRAL Pioneer in Death-Defying Flights Final Plunge Is 3,000 Feet at San Francisco. San Francisco.—The spectacular career of Lincoln Beachey, one of the most daring of American aviators, was ended Sunday when he fell to his death at the Panama-Pacific exposition in sight of thousands of spectators. The fatal fall was attributed to the fact that Beachey attempted his "stunts" in a monoplanet. An exceptionally large crowd had been attracted to the fair grounds to see whether he would attempt the same daring methods in the new machine that he had performed in his trim little biplane. The machine was at an altitude of about 3,000 feet when Beachey shut off his power. For several thousand feet it dropped head-on for the earth and then the aviator grasped his control levers to adjust the planes for the graceful descent which had characterized his previous flights. Strain Too Great. At that point the wings crumpled like a collapsed umbrella and the aeroplane turned over and over in its fall, ploughed into San Francisco bay narrowly missing a vessel lying at the government transport docks. Launches put out immediately, equipped with grappling hooks and a boat's crew from the battleship Ore PETER H. Lincoln Beachey. gon, which was anchored in the stream a short distance away, joined in an attempt to recover the body of the aviator, who was strapped to his machine under forty feet of water. The body was recovered. That Beachey still was alive when he struck the water and had sustained no material injury as the result of the fall except a broken leg was the opinion expressed by Dr. David E. Stafford, autopsy surgeon. The face, said Dr. Stafford, was discolored from choking and strangling, indicating death was due to drowning. Lincoln Beachey was regarded as the most skilful and daring of American aviators. He earned this reputation long before the French filers, headed by Pegoud, began to glide through the air upsidedown. Beachey was in retirement when these feats were beraided and was drawn back into the game by his desire to exceed the remarkable flying of the Frenchmen.

Almost endless litigation seems to be in sight as the result of the verdict. The words of acquittal had scarcely died on Foreman Bailey's lips when Deputy Attorney General Cook was on his feet with a motion to have Thaw recommitted to Mattewan. This was opposed by John B. Stanchfield, chief of Thaw's counsel, on the ground that the court had already had under advisement a motion to return Thaw to New Hampshire whence he came to answer the conspiracy charge. Thaw's four alides in his whirlwind automobile trip through four states from Matteawan to Canada were acquitted by the same verdict which acquitted Thaw and were discharged.

San Antonio.—The permanent peace committee, elected by the recent Mexican conference in this city, of which Frederico Gambao is chairman, has formulated a plan for the pacification of Mexico which calls for a board of directors, composed of a representative of each faction or recognized party in Mexico, to elect a committee of three which will be the supreme power in Mexico, if the plan goes through, until such time as 60 per cent of the population of the republic has accepted the plan. PAY ENVELOPE WEEK ENDING Mr. Efficient Worker Big Jobs —are gained largely by doing common tasks uncommonly well. But—to do unusually good work of any kind, fitness of body and mind are required. Food plays a big part in this matter—food that contains true nourishment. And true nourishment—be it remembered—must include certain important elements which unfortunately are often lacking in the ordinary dietary—especially in white bread. These elements are phosphorus, iron, lime, sulphur, etc., stored by Nature in her field grains, and absolutely necessary for building strong, vigorous bodies and active brains. Grape-Nuts made of choice wheat and malted barley, affords all the nutriment of these grains, including these important mineral elements, in form for easy, quick digestion.

GIVES $20,000 TO THE POPE Story Reveals Characteristics of the Present Occupant of the Pontifical Throne. An anecdote is being told about the pope which shows his natural simplicity of manners. Since his childhood his holiness has been a great friend of a Genoese nobleman who was in the habit of calling him by his Christian name and used the diminutive of James, "Glacomino," corresponding to the English "Jimmy." This nobleman was recently received in audience by the pope, who when he saw him knee down said: "No, no; Jimmy won't allow you to do that." The pope and his friend had a long talk and the nobleman, who is very rich, asked the pope to allow him to present him with some gift. "I have a splendid old silver service worthy of a pope and I want to give it to you," said the nobleman. "No, thank you," replied the pope, "I have no use for a silver service; what I need is hard cash, which is more useful for the church." The nobleman asked permission to sign a check there and then and gave it to the pope. He drew it for $20,000, as that was what the silver service was worth. Ingredients.

INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON (By E. O. SELLERS, Acting Director of Moonlight Institute, Chicago). LESSON FOR MARCH 21 JONATHAN AND HIS ARMOR BEARER. LESSON TEXT-I Samuel 14:1-13. GOLDEN TEXT-Let us put on the armor of light.-Rom. 13:12. Samuel's review of his life of integrity, his charge to the Israelites, God's testimony of displeasure over their persistent desire to have a king, and Samuel's words of comfort and assurance as found in chapter 12, form an interesting connection with last Sunday's lesson. In chapter 13 we have the record of Israel again in distress and of Saul's folly in his assuming the priestly office (vy. 13, 14). I. Saul's Distress, vv. 1.4. That Saul's disobedience, just indicated, had incurred God's displeasure, we know. It evidently had its effect upon the people also, for his army had dwindled during the intervening fifteen or eighteen years, from 330,000 (ch. 11:8) to a feeble 600 (v. 2). They were further handicapped by a lack of weapons (ch. 13:19-23). Deserted by Jehovah, by Samuel, Jehovah's priest, and by nearly all of his enthusiastic subjects (see 11:12) Saul was "in the uttermost part of Gibeah" hiding under a pomegranate tree (see vv. 11, 22 and 13:6). This may refer to his being at Rimmon (Judges 20:43-47). In this retirement Saul retains Ahiah (v. 3) as priest, thus keeping up the outward form of worship. This priest is not referred to as Jehovah's. He was a grandson of Phinehas, one of Elli's wicked sons, and as such was not to be a successor in the high priest's office (ch. 2:30-36). Such an outward form of "dead works" cannot take the place of a living faith. For Saul to consult the oracle of the Urim and Thummim worm by the priest and later to call up familiar spirits, shows his lack of spiritual apprehension. The references made to Saul's conduct (chapters 12, 13) are an indication of his character and emphasize the psalmist's words as found in Ps. 119:11, 105. II. Jonathan's Victory, vv. 4-13. But God had one leader to whom he could speak, Jonathan, who is one of the finest and most attractive characters in the whole Bible. This episode is among the most brilliant in the history of the Israelitish nation. It was a brave deed, and an evidence of that triumphant faith shown so clearly in Jonathan's deaffings with David. There seems to be a suggestion that Jonathan had lost confidence in his father, for neither he nor the people knew where Jonathan had gone. Verses 4 and 5 vividly picture the nature of the location wherein Jonathan undertook this feat. Jonathan clearly counted upon the fleshy covenant sign as ground upon which to expect help and victory over his enemies, who lacked such a sign (v. 6). The army of the Philistines had been divided into three sections (Ch. 13: 17), and this gave Jonathan his opportunity. The garrison at Michmash was on the opposite side of the ravine from Geba, Saul's headquarters. Hidden by the cliffs it was quite easy to approach the Philistines. It is an interesting and enlightening conversation recorded as ensuing on that journey. Jonathan—It may be that the Lord will work for us; for there is no restraint to the Lord to save by many or by few (v. 6). Armorbeearer—Do all that is in thine heart; behold I am with thee. Jonathan—We will pass over and will discover ourselves. The test, as recorded in verses 9 and 10 was a real one and a revelation of Jonathan's shrewdness. Not to be invited up by the Philistines would suggest a desire they may have had to cover up any weakness. To be asked to "come" suggests their self-confidence. Today's Message. Two young men of faith saved a nation sunk in despair and disgrace. They inspired confidence in God and his promises. "Youth for battles, old age for counsel," but there are times that demand action more than conference and consideration. Courage is only of value, however, when based upon much training, devotion to God, the interests of others, and a clear vision. It is not a mere flash in life's pathway. Courage is contagious; Jonathan's feat set on fire the soul of a nation. Read again the roll of honor in the eleventh chapter of Hebrews. The highest courage is not physical but moral. This courage is open to all, but it is intelligently grounded upon God's sure revelation in his word and in the person of his Son, our Lord. "And his armor-hearer after him." Jonathan did not go alone. On the other hand it is not probable this young lad would have gone up those rocks had not Jonathan led the way; because one went before him, he was able to scale the fortress. God alone knows the heights to which we may attain, but does not ask us to go alone, nor expect us to do the impossible. The greatest heroes are not military, they are Christian heroes, who put on the Christian armor and whose "strength is the strength of ten because their hearts are pure." Such heroes are not dismayed at the contempt and glbes of the enemy CALOMEL SICKENS!

KIDNEYS CLOG UP FROM EATING TOO MUCH MEAT Take Tablespoonful of Salts If Back Hurts or Bladder Bothers—Meat Forms Uric Acid. We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble. The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is retained in the blood to poison the entire system. When your kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead, and you have stinging palms in the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neutralize the acids in urine so it is no longer a source of irritation, thus ending urinary and bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent litha-water drink, and nobody can make a mistake by taking a little occasionally to keep the kidneys clean and active.—Adv.

The strength of a hemlock stick a foot square that had been in water for almost forty years was recently tested in the 600,000-pound testing machine at Rensselaer Polytechnic institute at Troy, in New York. The timber, which was 16 feet 9 inches long, had formed part of one of the pliers of the Congress street bridge at Troy. When the plier broke down after the flood in the spring of 1913, the timber was turned over to one of the material-testing laboratories of the institute. It was kept in the open air for three months, and then placed in a dry room for a little more than nine months. When placed in the testing machine, the column failed under a load of 384,000 pounds; that is, the long-submerged wood showed an ultimate strength of 2,670 pounds to the square inch. In the opinion of Prof. T. R. Lawson, who conducted the test, the remarkable strength of this piece of hemlock seems to show that being immersed in water for a long time does not decrease the column strength of timber that is subsequently permitted to dry out. Youth's Companion. One-Hundred-Dollar Tree The government has received $99.40 in payment for a single sugar pine tree that a trespasser cut in the Stanislaus National forest in California. It yielded more than enough actual lumfer for a good-sized house, or for a two-foot board walk nearly two miles long. The tree scaled 18,933 board feet, and was valued at $5.25 a thousand feet. Officers of the forest service believe that although national forest timber is frequently sold at a higher rate a foot, no other tree ever felled in a national forest has been worth so much.—Youth's Companion. MOTHER! LOOK AT CHILD'S TONGUE If cross, feverish, constinated, give "California Syrup of Figs" A laxative today saves a sick child tomorrow. Children simply will not take the time from play to empty their bowels, which become clogged up with waste, liver gets sluggish; stomach sour. Look at the tongue, mother! If coated, or your child is listless, cross, feverish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat heartily, full of cold or has sore throat or any other children's ailment, give a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs," then don't worry, because it is perfectly harmless, and in a few hours all this constipation polish, sour bile and fermenting waste will gently move out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. A thorough "inside cleansing" is oftimes all that is necessary. It should be the first treatment given in any sickness. Beware of counterfeit fig syrups. Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs," which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly printed on the bottle. Adv.
