O A Don't Let These Critical Times Bother You The war will not likely cause the farmers of the North west any hardships and poverty. On the contrary they should become wealthy. Everything that they raise will be needed by the government. It is true that in some instances a max imum price will probably be set, but the government must of necessity encourage the farmers to get more crop acreage and therefore cannot afford to take the produce at a small price, and thereby discourage the tiller of the soil. War is a terrible thing at any time and this war seems to be worse than any ever experienced, but the cause of lib erty and democracy is also a thing worth fighting for, and, if need be, suffering for, and while there may be differences of opinion as to the necessity of this country entering the war, we are now in it and it is the duty of every man and woman to do their part in bringing it to a successful end, so that dem ocracy may triumph over autocracy and militarism. Wi are all soldiers in this year of 1917. It behooves us all to do our bit, be it in the trenches, in the shops or on the farm. Be optimistic. Let's all pull together and all will soon be well.

Dr. Clarke, a famous traveler of about a century ago, tells of the fol lowing remarkable case, which was tried at the Greek Island of Cos: A young man desperately in love wltb a girl of Stanchlo eagerly sought to mar ry her, but his proposals were rejected. In consequence of his disappointment he bought some poison aud destroyed himself. The Turkish police Instantly arrested the father of the young wo man as the cause, by implication, of the man's death. Under the fifth spe cies of homicide be became, therefore, amenable for this act of suicide. When the case came before the mag istrate It was urged literally by the accusers that "If he (the accused) had not bad a daughter the deceased would not have fallen In love consequently he would not halve been disappointed consequently he would not have swal lowed poison consequently he would not have died. But he (the accused) had a daughter, and the deceased had fallen in love, and had been disap pointed, and had swallowed poison, and had died." Upon all these accounts he was call ed upon to pay the price of the young man's life, and this, being fixed at the sum of 80 piasters, was accordingly exacted. Another Instance was related to Dr. Clarke, which occurred at the island of Samos, as a characteristic feature of Turkish Justice—that Is to say, a so phistical application of a principle rig idly founded upon this fifth species of "homicide by implication." The Capu dan Pasha reasoned with the people of Samos on the propriety of their paying for a Turkish frigate which was wreck ed upon their territory and the crew lost "because the accident would not have happened unless tlieir island had been In the way."—Case and Comment FOUR TYPES OF MEM Ptenoh Mtthti «ff Pioking Soldier* Pto Special Lines of Work. "A good judge of human' nature Is born and not made," declared Dr. G. Stanley Hall, president of Clark uni versity. "Baseball scouts are not able to tell how they pick men neither can any employer tell how he picks his men." Dr. Hall described the French system of dividing men into four general types and selecting them for particular posi tions in the army accordingly. He said "First. The digestive type. It is characteristic of the heavy jaw, broad abdominal region. Such meri require more food, need it regularly, must be well fed. Such men are best on the de fensive. They are hard to dislodge from the trenches. "Second.—The respiratory type. Nos trils and ears are large large, long chest demand plenty of pure air get restive under confinement. Such men are selected for work on high moun tains. They are good in the charge, in making an attack. Such men exclusive ly are selected for the aviation corps. "Third.—The muscular type. Head is square, limbs long and strong, body short. This type is good for the bayo net charge In the artillery service. "Fourth.—The nervous type. Large head tapers down to a sharp jaw. Such men have power to draw upon their re serves. They can get their second wind. The »eally great are men of this type. Along with this type is closely associat ed a willingness to sacrifice self for the good of others. "Children and animals are guided by the desire to gain pleasure and avoid pain. As they grow older they should learn to bear present pain for future pleasure."—Pittsburgh Gazette-Times. Hard to Hear Airplane at 8ea. While It Is widely known that an air plane can be heard for some distance off on land, on water the lapping of the waves and the whistling of the wind through the rigging and superstructure of a vessel make it almost impossible to hear the power plant of an approach ing seaplane until it is almost ovehead hence the submarine plying the sur face has slight warning of an Impend ing seaplane attack until it is often too late to escape.—Scientific American. Heart and Lunge. The action of the heart, lungs and di gestive system is involuntary, for the reason that It is Indispensable to life and must be carried on under all cir cumstances. If a man had to think of his heart or had to remember that he must breathe or that his food must di gest he would have no time to do any thing else, and if by chance he should forget to keep his heart going or his lungs In operation he would fall dead on the spot The Moet Accurate Frontier.

Sicily's history as vivid and pic turesque, as ferocious and creative and destructive, as mythical and intensely practical, as the stories of all the rest of the world put together. And in beauty of nature, of climate or man and of beast the Island is a paradise today, whether or not it was ever the workless, painless, passionless elysium where our first ancestors enjoyed all the good things of life without having to toil. Nature itself, now in the guise of the misunderstood gods of old, now in con vulsions or in quiet fertility that sci ence has made plain to us, weaves its mysterious shuttle through and through the highly colored fabric. And men—such men!—tower above their fellows in the story like Titans Pindar, Aeschylus, Theocritus, Thucyd ides, Archimedes, the two great Hie rons, Cicero, Verres, Dlodorus, Hamil car and Hannibal, Roger the Count and Roger the King, Belisarius, the great crusaders Richard of the Lion Heart and Louis the Saint of France, Charles of Anjou, Frederick II., the "wonder of the world," and Garibaldi.

To Lengthen Their Lives Keep Them Free Ifrom Oil and Grease. It is pretty generally known that gasoline, grease, oil and other fatty substances are solvents of rubber. If garage floors are not kept clean and tires stand in a pool of oil the treads soften and the traction strains in service stretch the rubber in a wavy outline, eventually causing it. to sepa rate from the fabric body underneath. Probably the most damage is experi enced from grease, in the differential housing, working out into the brake drama and then on to the side walls •f the tire* This may result from loose bearings or too much grease or from using grease not suitable for differen tial. Grease and oil may be very easily re moved by using a rag saturated in gas oline. Gasoline, although a solvent, evaporates quickly and, if applied in small quantities, will not cause any In jury when used as a cleaning agent. Ordinary injuries to the rubber cover do not prevent successful repairs, but not often can work be well done when materials have beeni affected by oil or grease. Invariably blistering during vulcanization results.—Popular Science Monthly. Writing on a Moving Train. Writing legibly on a fast moving train is difficult to a person unaccus tomed to do it. The railroad conductor knows the trick of it and manages to get along quite satisfactorily. He pre fers to write in a standing position and holds his right elbow firmly against his side. The reason for this is that in a sitting posture theie is too much lat eral movement in the trunk of the body, while in a standing position this is more easily controlled. When the arm swings freely, as in ordinary writing, several joints of the body are affected In the process, each of which Is capable of its own motion. Holding the elbow against one's ribs breaks those motion tendencies, ex cept that of the wrist, which movement Is necessary in writing, and thus the pencil or pen is more easily controlled. Cautious. A lawyer happened to be acquainted with a juror in a petty civil case, and he met him during a recess of the court. The lawyer was just "lighting up," and under ordinary circumstances lie would have offered the other a cigar unhesi tatingly, but it occurred to him that it might not look right. "J suppose," he said guardedly, "that a cigar would not Influence your ver dict?" The juror was equally cautious. "A good one wouldn't," he replied, "but a poor one might prejudice me." He got a good cigar.—Brooklyn Eagle. Subconscious Wishes.
