Advancing in Civilization That the Irish World does not waste its love oh England is a well known fact. The keen irony of the editorial writer of this journal must be a thorn in the flesh of the "pro-British propaganda in the United States. In this week's issue, the editor trenchantly comments:, "England is improving in her conduct, She used to set a price on. American scalps regardless of whether they were those of men,; women or children. Today in Africa she pays fifty shil lings for a German hand and a rifle. . Not a yery high degree of civilization, but still a distinct advance." Girl W. Ackerman's Work Young men who have attended Richmond public schools and educational institutions have made marks in many callings. Carl Ackerman is the son of John Ackerman. . "T He was born here, educated here, received his first newspaper experience here. Today he is the Berlin correspondent of the United Press service. He succeeded Karl von Wiegand, the most illustrious of the war correspondents, but the fame of his.predecessor did not dull the edge of Ackerman's ambition. He went him one bet ter.' Ackerman's name has been made in the journalistic annals of America. . For every young man who succeeds, we have a kind word. We wish Ackerman continued success. - A young man away from home often gets his name in print. We are not forgetful of the "boys at home" who have succeeded.. There are many in Richmond who have proved their worth. We want them" to knerw that they are not "buried with the unknown dead." : ' County Nurse Fund Dr. D. W. Dennis, heading a , committee of the Wayne County Anti-Tuberculosis society, is de voting himself to a noble cause, not the first one, either, that he has espoused in his long years in Richmond and at Earlham college. 4 The committee wants $1,000, not for adver tising purposes, not to tell the people the danger of tuberculosis and ;how to combat its ravages. No, the $1,000 is to bring a visiting nurse here to work in the county, fighting against disease, teaching first hand and on the scene, how tuber culosis and other maladies are to be conquered, and assisting in the nursing of cases'. - What a noble cause ! Who could hold back the ONE DOLLAR it takes to join the society and thereby become a DOER and not merely a THEORIST in the fight against the WHITE PLAGUE? 4 Dr, Dennis and his committee deserve success. Earlham Statistics Founded in 1847, Earlham college has seen almost three generations come and go. Out of 1,205 alumni, there are living 1,104. This is an excellent record. The vital statistics published by the college indicate that emphasis ha been placed on. health during the years at school, and that graduates enter life, mentally and physical ly fitted for the struggle. 4T Sf roc r - viii sssaw i . m M Famous Gems Lost ' f'ONTEuEGRO ASKS FIRST OVERTURE OF TEUTONIC POWERS LONDON.

Bad Cold Quickly Broken Up. Mrs. Martha Wilcox, Go wands, N. T. writes: "I first used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy about eight years ago. At that time I had a hard cold and coughed most of the time.

At first there was no light but the blazing fire; as conditions, improved, pine knots were burned in the chim ney corner, or an empty gourd held bear's grease and a strip of old cloth. The first candles were made by press ing deer's tallow on a strip of cloth, with hands. Later candles were dipped; wicks were spun from hemp and two or three children gathered silk from milkweed. In a large settlement a woman could make her living dip ping candles. An expert could dip two hundred a day. The t'arifty house wife was admonished: "Wife make thine own candles, spare penny to handle. Provide for the tallow ere frost cometh in. And make thy own candle before winter begin." Long rods were placed from stool to stool and across these lighter rods for the wicks which were hung at regular in tervals. The wicks were dipped into a kettle of melted tallow and allowed to cool, then dipped again and again until the candles were of the proper size. Soon there followed metal molds. These had rows of cylinders set in a frame. I remember stringing the wicks in the rods, dropping them in the cylinders, drawing the wicks down tight and passing them through the holes below, then tying the knot to keep the tallow from running out. Beef tallow was used; the candles were apt to soften in summer and had to be molded in small quantities for family use. Snuffers were indespens ible tray to hold them. They were made of steel, iron or silver, hand wrought at first but afterwards made by machinery. As long as I can re member churches were lighted with candles. The length of the service de pended on the length of the candles and the janitor bad to be on the alert to keep the grease from dripping on the worshippers. Candlesticks were of metal or glass and a pair of silver candlesticks was considered a choice wedding present.' Near the fireplace was hung a hold for candle lighters. These were made of a strip of news paper eighteen inches long and an inch wide. 1 Beginning at one end the strip was rolled tightly for an inch then mor- loosely as the strip was taken up ; the . end was folded over to keep the taper from unrolling and the little flag remaining was easily ignited in the blaze of the open fire and the light conveyed to the candle or lamp wick. Some skill was requir ed to make a good taper if rolled too tightly they would not blaze, if too loosely the entire lighter might be burning before reach ng the vick. Tin reflectors were a great improvement. Behind the candle a strip of tin re flected the light. Below there was a pan to receive the drippings, and a socket for the candle; it was hung on a nail in the hall. These-light 'were very dim compared with gas and electricity. Europe has 212,651 miles of railway. CONGRESS MAY (Continued From Page One.) menf" of more routes of the motor vehicle kind. - Representative Wood said there Is general afj justifiable complaint in every community in Indiana where the department has re-organized the rural service. His home county, Tippe canoe, was the first county in Indiana to receive motor rural mail Bervice, and he says it has proved a great dis appointment to many patrons. "I am receiving complaints every day not only from Tippecanoe county, but elsewhere in Indiana," he said. "Patrons who formerly had the mail delivered at their doors at 9 or 10 o'clock in the morning write to me that they now get it late in the after noon and some have to walk a mile to their boxes. Carriers Being Removed. "Rural carriers are being removed without any warrant of law and in direct violation of the civil service. The whole plan is very obnoxious to the rural people and the department should abandon it and restore the efficient service which existed before the department conceived the mis taken notion that the thing to do was to rip up a service that was well suit ed to the needs of the public." Besides Tippecanoe county, motor service has been . ordered in Marion Vigo, Wayne, Randolph, Wabash and other counties. Representative Wood's bill would restore exactly the same status that existed before the depart ment turned its attetion to motoriz ing the rural routes. The congress might express itt sentiment on the subject by passing some such bill as the Indiana membe; has offered, but the motorizing of tht rural service, the department holds, is. a question up to the administration.

Stammerers Know This To Be True STAMMERERS know how it feels to be regarded as "different" from other people and to be laughed at They know that their affliction sets them apart from all others who are normal. They know that stammering Is a handicap which prevents their greatest success in business or their active participation in social affairs. Stammerers know this to be true but most stam merers are j list finding out that they can be permanently freed from stammering that it is no longer necessary to be bur dened with such an affliction. Benjamin N. Bogue. founder And president of the Bogue Institute for Stammerers, was a stammerer for twenty years before, by study and patient work, he found the way to free himself. He had the same experience you are now having. It was necessary in his case, because there was no one then who knew how stammering could be stopped. But today, and in your case, it is absolutely unnec essary for the one definite and proved way of stopping stam mering is known and being successfully used every day at the Bogue Institute. . On page five of the seventy-page book pictured below, you will find the beginning of Mr. Boffue's story of his own experiences, and how he restored himself to perfect speech. And you will see that this is the method which he now offers you a method which has restored perfect speech to hundreds of stanunerers In all parts of the country. Pages forty to forty-four of this book tell what other students have accomplished at the Bogue Institute of renewed happi ness of achievements In business and society that were previously impossible. The results of stammering are ahown. beginning on page twen-ty-two. On page sixteen you will find an explanation of the causes of stammering, and beginning on page thirty-one dis cussion of the methods used at the Bogue Institute. You will also be interested In page thirty-eight, which ahows how thor oughly the Institute protects the i nterests af its students. Per sons under eight years of age. and those not of norma 1 intelli gence, are not accepted as students. The book will explain the reasons for this very fully.
