Rumor that T. R. will bo a candidate for
President on the Prohibition ticket in 191ti
in calculated to make tome people dizzy.—Dal-
las Evening Journal.
We would judge from your remarks that the
Bull Moose has refused to further obey the com
mauds of his old master.

President Wilson says we are on the verge of
an era of prosperity. Now for the rush across
the line.
The sale of Bibles in China has diminished
by half since the war began. The Central
Board of Missions reports say that the Chi-
nese can not understand how Christians
fighting each other can square their conduct
with Scriptural teachings. Lots of other peo-
ple besides the Chinese have trouble in under-
standing the same thing.—Terrel Transcript.
All the nations now at war claim the Lord is
on their side. Our opinion is that He is not with
any of them; that they have cast Him aside.
OTHkI CKlYlhH PRANK.
The fellow at the bottom of the ladder has one
advantage over the man at the top—he doesn’t
have so far to fall.
John D. Rockefeller says he has quit thinking
of money and joined the Brotherhood of Man. He
took the precaution to get most of the money,
however, before joining.
The reason the Leader thinks you ought to
patronize its job office is because we like
some of your pay work mixed with your
thankee jobs, and that’s exactly one reason
why you do patronize our job department, of
course.—Stamford Leader.
Some few people have the habit of furnishing
one newspaper office with all their free notices
and spending all their money with someone else.
Of course such acts cause the editor who gets
the free end of the deal to feel more kindly to-
ward them and encourages him to give their free
notices the most prominent position in the paper
when they phone in such notices accompanied by
such a modest request. We are very glad that
there are only a few such people living.
Luke McLuke says: "There isn’t anything
wrong with marriage as an institution. But,
when a male hunk of cheese and a female lemon
try to live together as man and wife and can’t
make a go of it, half the world will say: ‘See! I
told you so! Marriage is a failure!’ ”
One reads and hears so much aliout kilowatts i
and watts when electricity is being talked about
that the constant reference tends to confuse the,
layman. In your meter is a little window; fasten
your eye on the window and you will soon see a
watt going around in a circle. He has a little
trick which he follows and it doesn’t take him long
to make a lap, either. Doubtless when the watt
has made a required number of laps, he becomes
n kilowatt, and so on until the last of the month
when he becomes a full-fledged electric light bill.
Then pay up and that’s all there is to it.
Charles Clogston, editor of a Terre Haute
(Please call it Hut). Indiana, newspaper, has
just been released by a judge in an Indianap-
olis court. Clogston roused the ire of a flam-
doodle jurist by criticising an election, calling
upon the grand jury to do its duty in the mat-
ter. His release came quickly enough after
the unprejudiced judge heard his statement
in the hnlieas corpus proceedings. When it
gets so that an editor cannot express his opin-
ion of things without being jerked up by some
peanut politician for contempt of court, then
our place is over in Europe fighting side by
side with the other civilized nations.—Bren-
Tho fol * ng m iaing incident*,
not on tho urofign, occurred at a
camp mectlr 1 mjir Bonham in an
luily day. 1 «■ irincipal actor* have
long gince i '•(** 1'Xtliered to their
fathom, usd f of im poet to their
living relati ■ V 1 will mention no
names.
At one of lie night service* the
devil wit* to tj' burned. In prepara-
tion for that )oms*hut peculiar and
startling ev.stt -i quantity of dead
brush, huy |n<l other combuitibl*
material was hi aped in a pile. A
bonfire wits t> he made of it at the
opportune Ilia*. The congregation
had reached tut' point in the services
where muny were inging and shout-
ing, and e dii ntly enjoying thoir re-
ligion. The 1 me having arrived, as
old Hrothei 1. thought, when the bon-
fire would U- most impressive, and
rr.o.t likely to warn sinner* of the
wrath to cone, he secretly touched
u lighted mu' 'h to the “devil. 1 he
result wu s ait ling, us the sequel
shows. A devilish Bonham hoy, un-
observed, had thrown a bunch of fire-
crackers in the pile of rubbish. For
t moment tier'1 was a stampede, a
few of the more excitable taking to
tall timber.
Another time at the same place
the same fellow who “delivered the j
goods," as above related, was the!
moving spirit in the following epi- j
rode: A bu rgy, from which the I
horse hud b< en removed, wus stand-
j ing on a hill dde, facing and leading
' down toward the audience. A young
fellow and his b t girl were sitting
j in the buggy enjoying each other’s
company, and probably utterly ob-
livious to all thoir surroundings.l
i Suddenly u propelling force from ho |
hind started the vehicle down grade, j
It struck the center aisle and check-
ed up about the center of the congre-
gation, much to the consternation of
all. L. <. PENWELL.
(New York Commercia'.)
Dr. H. M. Carrick described as
“the famous clean town export," tell*
his neighbors in Ter*s that sickness
costs thi people of that state $J-v
000,000 annually and that the average
cost is |95. This is * form of argu
menl for cleanliness which is unusual
but effective. Dr. Carrick say * that
it was the economic side of the sub-
ject of sanitation which induced Glad-
stone, Bismarck, Disrsall and other
“fur seeing statesmen to incorpoiate
into the laws of their reape -tiv i gov-
ernments the statement: ‘The care
of the public health is th> first and
highest duty of statesmen.”’
whether the great men alluded to,
individually or collectively, made or
did not make the statement, does rot
detract from it* force. There are
t her reasons aside from the pre-
vention of vuffering and the saving
of money cost which should armiute
statesmen and patriot*, cf less im-
puting aUture. Negligence breeds
dirt; dirt breeds distant. A sict-ly
nation is a weak one no matter how
populous or rich. A sickly c immu-
nity is usually a dirty one, a poor
ore and a reproach and menace to its
residents and its nelg ibors. I urth-
er, the people who live in a sickly
coo rounity are igne-ant or they
w uld not bleed sickness.
Not thr least important of the
movements which are now animating
u number of '.lie people of this coun-
try is that for the clea >ing up of
.•tics and towns, for keeping them
chan and for teaching people how
not to get sick.
