FOR OPEN DOOR POLICY
APPROVED.
Washington—The Senate completed
its part of the arms conference pro
^raIU !uP.ftovlng the last two t ea
ties o' the group of seven submitted
t(^l for ratitlcution.
the final ratification roll Mill
• ^^affirmative expression of Sen t'
opinion was all but unanimous. Not
a Bingie vote was cast against the
Far Eastern treaty, drawn to guaran-
tee a new bill of rights to China, and
there was only one dissenting voice
when the constitutional "advice and
consent” was given to the pact for
revision of the Chinese tariff. The
totals, respectively, were 66 to 0 and
58 to 1.
Over the tariff treaty several sharp
exchanges took place, with Senator
Hitchcock of Nebraska, senior Demo-
crat of the Foreign Relations Com-
mittee, and Senator King (Item.) ot
Utah leading in criticism of Ameri-
can participation in the fixing of
Chinese customs schedules Senator
King cast the'only negative vote on
the ratification roll call and Senator
Hitchcock left the chamber and did
not votes
In defense of the treaty, Senator
Underwood of Alabama, the Demo-
cratic leader and a delegate to the
arms conference, declared all the
powers already were involv'd in trea
ties stipulating China’s tariff sche-1
dules and now were acting together
to ameliorate the situation so far us
practicable.
A compilation of the results of the
seven ratification roll calls shows
that on five of the seven treaties the
Senate acted with virtual unanimity.
The votes follow: Yap treaty, 67-22;
four-power treaty, 67-27; supplement-
al four-power treaty, 650; naval limi-
treaty, 74-1; submarine and
gas treaty, Tin; Far Eastern
traaty, 60-0, and Chinese tariff treaty,

BY BGN1B EXPLOSION
South Lamar Street Man Tries to
Extinguish Fuses After Having
Rescued Sleeping Baby.
Dallas, Texas.—As the result of
^ a' bomb explosion about 8:15 Wed-
nesday night that shook houses for
several blocks, the home of Mrs.
Iledie McAllister, 1126 South Lamar,
on the east side of the street be
tween St. Louis and Powhattan,
about a mile south of the business
section of the city, was wrecked,
and Miss Iterothy May Grace, 18,
who was Lu the house at the time,
sustained a broken ankle and many
cuts about the head and face.
Mrs. H. C. Patton, mother of Miss
i Grace by a previous marriage, nar
rowly escaped with her life when
she dashed into the hvmse to drag
out her duughter, who had gone
! into the building to bring out some
clothing.
Officers arrested H. C Patton,
husband of Mrs. Patton at his
| home, 3026 Gertrude, near Highland
Park. He insisted that he had been
to church and knew nothing of the
explosion.
Jim Patton of 3010 Gertrude street
and Frank Patton, living on the
rear of 3010 Gertrude street, were
also arrested. Jim and Krank are
Mothers of H C Patton.
■Rui declare they know nothing of
^the explosion and say they art In-
nocent of any wrongdoing.
R. G. Solomon, 1200 South Lamar,
who had been summoned to the
house by screams of the women,
who declared someone was under
the building striking matches, had
crawled under the front porch and
seeing two fuses burning, plunged
for them just as the crash came.
Solomon was picked up some min-
utes later in an adjoining yard. He
was in a dazed condition and was
clutching a revolver in his hand
He was later treated at Emergency
Hospital, a foot having been bruised.
Neighbors around the wrecked
house said that Mrs Patton, who
had been at the address only three
days, had frequently said that her
life was in danger and that she
feared the McAllister home would
be blown up.

Mr. Warne attacked the roads for

seated. Tills is
natural and right,
but euslly pervert-
ed. Some things
nre more to be de-

right in her service, but not in the
manner of it. She was cumbered and
distracted by It. It made her impa-
tient und fault-finding, jierhaps envi-
ous. There was something better for
Martini than she had yet gotten hold
of. Her thought was only upon the
physical and the material. For her,
service was the all-important thing.
Undue emphusis is today placed upon
service. To have things and to do
tilings are good and needful, but they
are not tlie best. They cannot be elim-
inat'd, but neither should they en-
slave.
Mary’s desires wore deeper. She i
would not permit the material to
crowd out the spiritual. Her choice
was the unseen. For her the words
of Christ were the most precious
things she could possess. To get them
brought her to Jesus’ feet, made Him
her companion. After lie wns gone
those words would still lie hers for
comfort and strengthening In the hour
of need.
Jesus knew values better than any
man who had ever lived. He. could
weigh worlds and word a and the souls
of men. He said to Martim, reprov-
ingly and lovingly, “Mary hath chosen
the good part, which shall not be tak-
en away from her." Mnry chose the
things that will last: “Heaven mid
earth shall pass away, but my wonts
shall never pass away.”
Knowing the Father.
No knowledge is so Important as
knowing God; not knowing nbout
Ood hut hnving personal acquaintance
with Him. God is revealed in nature
and In history. True science teaches
us marvelous things about God, hut
there is only one way to know God
personally, and that is through Jesus
Christ. He alone fully knows the Fa-
ther and He alone Is able to reveal
the Father to us <Luke 10:22).
There is no use to quibble about this
fact. The sooner yon accept ami act
upon It the sooner will you come into
possession of a knowledge that will
enthrall you and free you from the
desire to know many other things that
only enrse and degrade.
Tilts 1s what the lawyer sought,
though insincerely (v. 25). Is it nett
really what we all desire? Eternal
life Is only Christ’s to give: “I give
unto my sheep eternal llf'e.” He Is
the Life. The seventy returned with
joy. Through the delegated power of
Jesus they had wrought the very same
miracles that lie tmd. Jesus prom-
ised them the exercise of almost un-
limited authority (v. 18). Well might
the disciples rejoice that even de-
mons were subject to them, but Christ
pointed to some thine greater: ‘\,ut
rejoice that your names nre wrltt i
in heaven” (v. 20). Eternal life! The
good and enduring possession. Do you
hnve it?
The Joy of Poscersing the Best.
Not the best in comparison with the
possessions of your neighbor hut the
best in themselves. Only intrinsic
values count with those who are im-
mortal ; deeds that produce lasting
Joy because wrought in tiie power of
God; rejoicing that abides because
they nhlde who know God nnd Ills
Son, Jesus Christ; pence in the midst
of tilings that nre distracting because
the words of Jesus Christ nre hid In
our hearts. These nre the best tilings
to possess. They produce the joy that
abides. They are spiritual and un-
seen. hut most real. Other tilings pass
away, but these abide.
When revelation of the best posses-
sions Is made to us. it still remains
for us to deliberately make choice of
them. Martha could have made the
•mine choice flint Mnry did, blit other
•hirers more strongly nppenled to her.
Our lives may bo so full of pleasant
“things" that we may not desire the
host. Hut If they Co appeal to us,
even then they must he earnestly
chosen. Better accept God’s valua-
tion of tilings than your own. Choose
| what He? approves Instead of whnt
yon may prefer. They make no mis-
takes who dc-Cide with God.

When Her Back Aches
A Wliman Finds All Her Energy and
Ambition Slipping Away.
Cooper women know how the aches
and pains that often come when the
kidneys fail make life a burden.
Backache, hip pains, headaches, dizzy
spoils, distressing urinary troubles,
are frequent indications of weak kid-
neys and should be checked in time.
Doan’s Kidney Pills are for the kid-
neys only. They attack the kidney dis-
eases by striking at the cause. Here’s
proof of their merit in a Cooper wo-
man’s words:
Mrs. Oscar Anderson Says: I have
used Doan’s Kidney Pills when suffer-
ing from backache or pains in my
side. At times I had severe headache
and felt dull and tired but Doan’s
soon fixed me up in good condition.
I have used other medicines but 1
never found anythng that did me as
much good as Doan’s Kidney’s Pills.”

simply ask for kidney remedy—get
Doan’s kidney pills—the same that

THE PNEUMONIA SEASON
The cold, damp .weather of March

be careful. Pneumonia often results
from a cold. The quicker a cold is
gotten rid of the less the danger.
As soon as the first indication of a

It is the most effective way to break a
cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores of the skin, relieving congestion.
Also loosens the bowels, thus driving a
