CHANGES WROUGHT BY WAR
Many Things Have Been Brought to Pass That Would Shock Qldtlmo Observers. s Quite a number of things have happened during or. In consequence of tbs. war which never happened before. No British king had ever passed under Napoleon's Arc de Triomphe until King George’s recent visit to Paris. No British army had before helped to defend France against an Invader. British and, Prussian troops had never previously tried conclusions. Never before the war had armies from India, America, Canada. Australia, New Zealand or South Africa landed in Europe. Until Mr. Wilson, no “reigning" president of the United States had crossed the Atlantic during his term of office, though ex-presidents have done so. Jerusalem. Damascus and Bagdad had never before been captured by modern European armies, nor had British soldiers ever previously marched through Mesopotamia. The British flag Is the first standard of a Christian nation to float over Constantinople as that of a conqueror since the taking of the city by the Turks over four centuries ago. No king of Prussia hud ever lost his throne or been driven into exile before; and no war had ever brought misfortune on so many rulers or led to so many new states being set up.
GOODBY TO FATHER WINTER
No Doubt That Spring la Here, With , AII the Joyousness That the Season Should Bring. __ 1 ' The harbingers of spring are numerous, though often obscure. It does not. take many warmish days at this time of the year to make the heart of animate Nature, including man. to throb with hope. We have been filled with forebodings. All of our mild December we said that the autumn was lingering long this year. In equally mild January we prognosticated that we would “get it” tn February. We are still a little fearful that old Father Winter may have some ice and snow for us In his storehouse and so we try not to be too forward looking. But a complete plan of the garden drawn to a scale, with every radish and bean and cahliage located Is not rushing the season, and It is a mighty pleasant thing to make out these days. Stewart Edward White says he always gets out his book of flies in February, furbishes up the old ones and replaces the missing favorites, and dreams, the while, of pools and rapids. The housekeeper sighs at the sight of grimy wall paper and theni hopefully “begins to houseclean the spare room. A few hopeful robins came back this week, as well as some blackbirds. They say the skunk cabbages are blooming along Big Darby’s rocky shore. Spring is on tlie way!—Ohio State Journal.
Healthy Men Defied “Flu."
An observant hospital corps man of the navy became so thoroughly convinced that lowered resistance was always the determining factor in contracting influenza that he and some of h’s mates volunteered to test the truth of his theory. The offer was accepted and 10G enlisted men who volunteered were submitted to exhaustive experiments by naval surgeons, the outcome of which seems to configfiStbe theory. These men were all in life best of physical condition, and during the experiment their health was looked after carefully. Live cultures of Influenza bacilli were sprayed in their throats and noses hourly. The germs were Introduced into their food. They were kept in close contact with patients suffering from the disease, gome members of the group received various preventive inoculations, but others were not thus protected. Not a single case of influenza was developed.
A Layer of Tin.
At my friend s wedding everything had gone off fine. The ceremony was over and the bride was about to cut the wedding cake. The knife went half-way down the cake and stopped, the table rocked dangerously, and everyone wondered what the trouble was. To the bride’s embarrassment her mother removed the of a cake tin from the center of the cake. All the bride did was to tell the guests that “revenge is sweet.” —Chicago Tribune.
ONE MAN’S BEST INVESTMENT
-Special" Account Opened by Man* •ger of Big Enterprises Has Paid Big Dividends. An American business man had become convinced of the reasonableness of the doctrine of man’s stewardship. He had Ihpuggt it all out and decided that it might be a good thing to try the experiment. His, various business enterprises had prospered; his income was constantly increasing; be certainly could do things which he night have done but had not. One night he lay awake pondering the whole matter, and before going to sleep prayed over it. made up hltf mind, says the ChdMhn Herald. Next morning he Instructed his bookkeeper to open In the ledger a new account in his name, and marked . ‘lmperial,’’ to which the bookkeeper should regularly carry one-tenth of all the profits. He warned him never to fail to have the "Special” account ready when called for. And- that business, man’s “Special” has never failed. It has been to him a wonderful revelation of the capacity of a man immersed in big enterprises for doing good on a large scale as a Side line. It has helped to build churches, to promote the gospel, to support missionaries, to maintain and train orplians, ,to bring gladness to homes of suffering and to many shutins. He has had a hand In a hundred noble enterprises for Christ and humanity. And the most extraordinary thing about it is that it has “given him a new zest for business, having, as he himself would say reverently, God as a silent partner. It has not only been a means of blessing" bis business, but it has purified his whole life, ennobled his character and made him ten times a better man. ' • ■
MEANS END OF ALL THINGS
Number “30,” Originally Newspaper Symbol, Has Come to Have Significance of Dire Import.
By frequent reference to it, noted by newspaper readers, doubtless the meaning of that cabalistic symbol “30” has become familiar to many, but this Incident and explanation is printed in Connection with the obsequies of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, in the Montreal La Patrie. “What does that signify?" was asked by thousands who filed past the casket of Sir Wilfrid Laurier and hUd remarked the bouquet of flowers upon which lay the symbol “30” in red figures. This tioral tribute was given by members of the press gallery in the Dominion parliament. For them this number means the same as the words whioh the great departed pronounced some days after being stricken by his malady: “It is ended.” (C’est fini.) The origin of this conventional symbol has been lost in the traditions of journalism, but after each night and at the end of every day the conventional “30” traversed the continent from end to end. Editors in time adopted the Bign “30” to inform the staff, the various news departments and the composing room that all the “copy was finished and that there would be nothing additional. Finally, for newspaper men, the number “30” became the symbol of the end of all things of earth, and even of life.
Yanks Like French Souvenirs.
Yankee soldiers are keeping the French shops busy these days. Souvenirs of France and various regions and cities of France are all the go. Among these souvenirs are brooches bearing the arms of different cities. The head of the famous Lion of Belfort. the statue of Bartholdi, the sculptor who designed the goddess of Liberty, is another favorite. The Lorraine cross has also proved very popular with the Yanks. This symbol has two sets of cross arms Instead of one. It appeals particularly to the Americans because of the part which the Ygnks played in Lorraine -during the ’War. The Red Cross dog and the lucky white elephant charm are other French souvenir which the Amertcans are procuring in large numbers to take back to the States.—From The Spiker, France.
Famous Old Inn Gone.
The city of Augsburg has seen the last of that famous Inn, “Drei Mohren.” or preferably, in sonorous French, ‘Thotel des Trois Maures.” Tie Bavarian revolution has demolidied it with the famous roofii and fireplace in which the financier Pugger, to save his life, lit a fire with afl those “I. O. U.’s.” awkward reminders of a monarch’s infiebtedness. It was in this hostelry, too. that Marie Antoinette put up on her> way to France to become the wife of the dauphin. Over the lintel of the “Trois Maures" were carved the lilies of France in commemoration of the event. inn and the lilies have disappeared in another such cataclysm as sjvept Marie Antoinette to the guillotine. some hundred and twenty-odd yeata ago.
They Were Prepared.
T>e wife of an Indianapolis merchant was recently quite sick. One day after she had Improved a bit and her seven-year-old son had been permitted in her room for a little visit, she voiced, the thought that had worried her all the time while she had been ill. "Ted,” she asked, “what would you have done if mother bad diedr Back came Teddy’s startling answer; “Oh. the girls could have gone to grandmdthw’S’ to five and papa and I —we’d ..have gotten us a new wife right away-” ?

We get Wo tired of working. Same folks wear golashes, others eat greens, while still others listen to Grape Juice Bryan.— —-—— The spirits of some of the veteran booze hounds are dropping like oil stock in a panic these days. W. L. Wood went to Oxford today, where he will deliver the Memorial day address. _ / Lewis and Zybsczko are going to wrestle jin someone’s opera house next week. Which means nothing. The bravest bird in the world is the one who will mix up his wearing apparel by wearing a straw hat. and an overcoat at the same time. It is now time for the “Is it Hot Enough for You?” nuisance to make his debut. They are as unnecessary as a stiff-bosomed shirt. A slant at some of the antique straw hats causes one to know why they were short on wheat last year. Mrs. Harvey arid Mrs. Grace Mpore, who had spent a few days with Mr. and Mrs. phriam Hickman in returned to this city Thursday.
Mr. and Mrs. Ray Casey and children came Thursday for a visit with Mr. Casey’s parents and other relatives. Margaret Babcock went to Evanston, 111., today for a visit with Miss Helen Leatherman, who is attending Northwestern university. Mrs. Harry Thewles, of Lafayette, came Thursday for a few days’ visit with Mr. and Mrs.. Ephriam Hickman Jordan. A message was received this morning from New York announcing the safe arrival from overseas of Leland Jessen. Mrs. Charles Harris received a telegram this morning announcing the death of David Harris, of Springfield, Ohio. David was raised by Mr. and Mrs. Harris.
Heard a fellow bawling out the postmaster the other day, and it made me glad that I wasn’t anybody’s postmaster. Said his mail never came on time; that one of his letters left Frankfort, Ind., May 9 and reached him in Rensselaer May 20; that another letter never reached him as all. The postmaster looked sort of meek and answered, “Yes, sir,” real respectful-like, you know. Guess that guy don’t know that the war is over and that all up-to-date folks have their mail sent by aeroplane, and that postoffices are nothing more than a place for the postmaster to loaf and draw his salary. Even at that we wouldn’t want to be a postmaster, because postmasters get Hades mostly, and then someone is always accusing them of secreting the mail about their persons or using it to line the walls of their hen houses during the winter months. Funny thing, the public.
