DRIFTING.

Some school children in New York object to singing certain songs because they imply a religious belief. Says a newspaper: "Half of the older ones insisted thg.t they didn't believe in any religion. 'I don't believe in no religion,' said one boy. 'And if you go down the street you will find lots more who don't either.' 'That's it,' put in a girl. 'We don't go in for any religion, for we don't know where we go when we die.'

This pathetic childish materialism may perhaps be blamed on New York's cosmopolitanism and the consequent high death rate among traditions. Yet many older persons no doubt use the .same logic and explain that they don't believe '"because they don't know where they go when they die." In the meantime, however, we are all living. Too much emphasis used to be placed on the part of death in religion: religion as a living faith is what sane men focus on today. Says an editorial in Collier's regarding the incident, "Call your religion what you like—but belieive—and then prove It somehow. Faith in man is good faith in both man and the Son of Maui, better. A life bounded by self is a tragedy for the individual and a curse for the mass. It is bad policy and worse science. Civilization without belief is no more thinkable than lighthouse building without stone or skyscraper construction without steel. The man who does not believe is out of tune internally and externally—in town and country—on the street and in the forest. Happily, the school children who do not believe have plenty of time left. Experience is a good teacher."

HOUSE AND HOME.

The real estate men are urging a state-wide organization to support certain legislation, and the argument they advance is a revelation, showing how closely the real estate man is associated with the general scheme of things. The real esatte men want the system of taxation changed, arguing that real estate now bears so heafvy a burden that the people are disinclined to own property, and the influence on home life is bad. Which is saying a good deal.

Without figures to prove such a contention, it appears that the.American homestead is disappearing—homestead, that is, in the sense of a family home established as a permanent abode and gathering the affections and traditions of a family as years pass and generations multiply. A sentiment attaches to a home which, established in the youth of a couple, shelters its offspring, sees babies grow to maturity, witnesses the confident departure of its young manhood and womanhood and their more contrite return, which sees the years pass without shaking its own foundations or the partnership which made its establishment possible. There Is inspiration in such a home. There is an element of peril, if such homes are becoming scarcer.

It matters not how many additions are made to the old house, how many modern improvements are made or how its physical aspects may be changed, the spirit remains it continues to be home, surrounded by sentiments which make any house a home. To let such a home pass into alien hands means a loss of family stability. In some degree it means a loss to the state. For a nation is not likely to be much stronger than its family life.

If the real estate men are able to check this unnatural tendency away from home owning and home life they will have performed a wonderful and valuable work for society.

THE PRICE WE PAY,

The account of the American public for the Fourth of July has been balanced for another year, and the price as usual, Is heavy. Three little boyr died from lockjaw as a result of Fourth of July injuries sixteen persons, mostly little girls and small children, wert burned to death by fire from fireworks five persons were killed by firearms six by explosions of gun powder, gun or torpedoes, four by cannon and fiv died from injuries caused by fireworks The total number of deaths resulting from Fourth of July injuries, according to the twelfth annual report on this subject compiled by The Journal of tin American Medical Association, i: forty, and the number injured is 1,466 •unking a total of 1.506 accidents re suiting from the Fourth of July celebrations. Among those injured but no* killed, thirty-skc were totally blinded thirteen lost one eye each, sixteen los'egs, arms or hands, and sixty-sever lost one or more fingers. This record which reads like a report of an European battlefield, is unfortunately no' is good as that of last year or tin '•ear before. In 1913 only thirty-twc persons were killed and 1.131 injured md in 1912. while forty-one person were killed,

Hundred-Year-Old Saddlebags Preserved Here as Relics

OLD SADDLEBAGS WITH A HISTORV.

Harold Crooks, the druggist at Tenth stieci and Lafayette avenue, has a pair of leather saddle bags that have an interesting history. They are more than one-hundred years old and were first carried by William Crooks, a great grandfather of the present owner, when he was practicing medicine in Parke county, Indiana, near the town of Bridgeport. Mr. Crooks gave the bags to his son, Jacob Crooks, who was oracticing medicine near the Missouri *tate line, in the territory made famous by tlio celebrated James boys, probably the most noted gang of desperadoes in

accidents, almost double the number reported last year. Illinois reported ninety-fVve injuries or more than twice as many as last year, while Massachusetts and Connecticut had, respectively, eighty-seven and seventy-seven cases —the largest number since 1910. In Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio and Washington, the number has decreased to a marked extent.

During the twelve yeai-s in which these statistics have been collected. 42,786 persons—nearly forty-three regiments—have 'been injured through Fourth of Jury accidents.

The increased number of killed and injured indicates a relaxation ih the enforcement of the ordinances which were so ably enforced two years ago. Instead of relaxation of restrictive measures, the use of fireworks in the celebration of Fourth of July should be strictly prohibited. To kill outright forty persons and to wound and maim 1,466 others Is not a very fitting token of our thankfulness for the declaration of independence signed over a hundred years ago. Is it not rather an acknowledgment that in this country rowdyism cannot be restrained, or that the only way we can show our patriotism is by riot and murder? The results of two years ago show plainly that these evils can be entirely done away with. It Is hoped that the city officials will continue their prohibitive measures until the desired end is attained.

this country. During one of their raids Frank James was injured, and Dr. Crooks was called. Arriving at the spot he gave the daring outlaw medicine out of the saddle bags, which lie always carricd while making his trips.

The bag's then came into the possession of Dr. William Emery, who kept thern as a curiosity. Dr. Emery came to Terre Haute and, happening to pass the Crooks' drug store, he noticed the name and stopped in. The present owner had no trouble in establishing his relationship with the original owner of the ba?s, and Dr. Emery presented thern to Mr. Crooks as a keep sake.

M'ADOO FAVORS PLAN OF MERCHANT MARINE

Declares United States Has Full Right to Buy, Build or Operate Commercial Ships.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.—The right of the United States to buy merchant ships of any nationality for neutral uses cannot be disputed by any nation, declared Secretary McAdoo, of the treasury department, late yesterday before the house merchant marine committee, supporting the administration merchant marine bill. Mr. McAdoo refused, however, to discuss the diplomatic- phases of the situation, when asked if protests had-been received frorrt Great Britain or France against the possible' government purchase of German vessels.

Secretary McAdoo endorsed the Alexander bill, which provides for the organization of a $10,000,000 corporation, with power to buy, build and operate ships in the foreign trade and with the government as majority stockholder. He said that as some of the lines to be established would probably be operated at a loss, private capital would not be attracted, the government probably supplying tne entire capital. "Do you understand," asked Representative Saunders, "that there Is grave objection on the port of Great Britain and France to our taking over the German bottoms, which have been driven out of the foreign trade by the war?" "Of course I cannot discuss the diplomatic phases of the question," said Secretary McAdoo. "That is the business of the state department It cannot be successfully disputed, however, that this government has the right to buy ships from German companies or anyone else so long as it buys those ships* for neutral purposes-"

Greatest of All

This is an external application to enable the abdominal muscles to become more pliant, to expand naturally without undue pain from the

strain upon cords and ligaments. Applied as directed upon those muscles Involved it soothes the fine network of nerves with which all the muscles are supplied. Thus a great share of the pains so much dreaded may be avoided and the period of expectancy passed in comfort.

There is no question but what such relief has a marked influence upon the general health of the mother.
