PRE8IDENT CALL8 FOR PRAYER8 OF PEACE Washington, Sept. 9—President Wil- son yesterday signed a proclamation calling on the people of the United States to pray for peace in Europe. The president's proclamation sets aside Sunday, Oct. 4, as a day of pray er. President Wilson's proclamation was as follows: N "By the President of the United States of America: "A proclamation. "Whereas, Great nations of the world have taken up arms against one another and war now draws millions of men into battle whom the counsel of statesmen have not been able to save from the terrible sacrifice and, "Whereas, in this as in all things it is our privilege and duty to seek counsel and succor of Almighty God, humbling ourselves before Him, con fessing our weakness and our lack of any wisdom equal to these things and, "Whereas, It is the especial wish and longing of the people of the Unit ed States, in prayer and counsel and all friendliness, to serve the cause peace "Therefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, president of the United States of Am erica, do designate Sunday, the fourth day of October, next, a day of prayer and supplication, and do request all God-fearing persons to repair on that day to their places of worship, there to unite their petitions to Almighty God that over-ruling the counsel of men, setting straight the things they cannot govern or alter, taking pity on the nations now in the throes of con flict, in His mercy and goodness show ing a way where men can see none. "He vouchsafe His children healing peace again and restore once more that concord among men and natious without which there can be neither happiness nor true friendship nor any wholesome fruit of toil or thought in the world. Praying also to this end that He forgive us our sins, our ignor ance of His holy will, our wilfulness and many errors and lead us in the paths of obedience to places of vis ion and to thoughts and counsels that purge and make wise. "In witness whereof, I have here unto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. "Done at the city of Washington this 8th day of September, in the year of our Lord, 1914, and of the inde pendence of the United States of Am erica the' 139th. "(Signed) "WOODROW WILSON. "By the president, "WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN, "Secretary of State Auction Sale As I am to move to Norway, Mich., I will sell at public auction at the M. E. parsonage at Oak Park on MONDAY, SEPT. 21ST, at one o'clock p. m., my personal pro perty and effects which I cannot take with me. Further particulars next week. REV. L. G. EDGREN. Mutual Admiration. Count Paul Vassili in his book, "France From Behind the Veil." has a story of Mirbeau. the dramatist, and Rodin. Rodin had made a bust of Mirbeau and he told the count, "It is not everybody's bust I care to do, but when one meets with a remarkable personality like our great writer here it is a pleasure for an artist to repro duce his features." Mirbeau replied, "I never hoped for such a reward for all my work as to be thought worthy of the attention of our great master." Mme. Mirbeau took up the chorus, "It is not often that two great souls like our two great masters here present meet and think together." The Color of Jade. The idea of jade possessing the vir tue of bringing the wearer good for tune arose in China. The best speci mens represent all the hues and effects of sea foam, but these are eagerly snapned up by collectors and seldom come into the public market There is another cause for the popularity of jade. Its peculiar green tinge has the effect of making the human skin look very white. In this connection the quality of the stone is of no account BO long as the color is there. Indeed, many of the less expensive jade orna ments are made from chips of the stone which contain noticeable flaws.— Pearson's Weekly. Walking on Your Hat. "Nothing is wasted in this house" is the proud remark which you may often hear from the lips of an expert housekeeper. It is a boast, however, that few people could really justify. Take the case of a wornout derby hat In the majority of instances this dis carded article of headgear finds its way to the rubbish heap or perhaps into the bands of a passing tramp, If only people were aware of the fact, the most excellent felt soles for the inside of their boots and slippers are thus being discarded. These soles can be cut from the sides of an old hat and are much more comfortable than the ordinary cork ones. English Pantomimes. Though pantomime Is generally re garded as a purely British institution— rind rightly so, for no other country puts nursery tales upon the stage at Christmas time—most of the stories we dramatize are drawn from foreign sources. "Bluebeard," "Cinderella" and "Tom Thumb" we owe to France "Puss In Boots" comes from Italy "Jack the Giant Killer" hails from Norway "Jack and the Beanstalk" came to us with the bouse of Hanover, and "Sindbad and the Sailor" comes from the east "The Babes In the Wood" and "Little Red Riding Hood" are among the few fairy tales of purely English origin.—Exchange. tfi Attend the Big Annual Event NEXT WEEK KANDIYOHI COUNTY FAIR Sept. 16,17,18,18 LIVE STOCK FRUIT CORN Domestic Art.

Martial Law In England. Martial law has not been known in England for considerably over a cen tury. Yet its validity in times of do mestic trouble and war is recognized by a clause from the "petition of rights" inserted in the army act which parliament passes every year. Essen tially, martial law means that the or dinary law is suspended, because it is too cumbrous and slow, in favor of summary judgment in times of great stress. The last occasion it was pro claimed in London was the Gordon riots in 1780, and the Jacobite rebel lions of 1715 and 1745 brought about the same state of affairs throughout Great Britain.—London Chronicle.

Backed Horse Both Ways. Charles H. Mellen, the former head of the New Haven lines, was talking in Boston about certain law suits. "People who think they can get hold of half a billion as easily as that," Mr. Mellen ended, "remind me of the man at the races who rushed up to a bookmaker and said: 'Here's my ticket on Bluebell. Pay up, please.' "'Pay up on Bluebell?' said the bookmaker, 'Nonsense, man* Whx, Bluebell, after she'd run half the race, turned and bolted back to the start ing point.' 'Yes, I know,' said the man, "but I backed her both ways.'" Easily Answered. She—What do you consider the mar riageable age in a woman? He—The age at which she is able to induce a man to marry h«r, of course.—Boston Transcript. KINDNESS.
