CRUSADE
In the Afternoon Rev. Mahy Spoke to Men and Boys at a Theater and Spoke at Church in Evening.
. (Continued from Pace One.)
tbe Bible teaching of purity was emphasised and to many who were pres
ent It was doubtless a revelation to discover bow much the Bible bad to say on this subject God's; standard of purity was brought out by many quotations, principal among them being one from Ps. M:4. "Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? He that bath clean bands and a pure heart." And the famous beatitude spoken In the sermon on the mount, "Blessed are the pure In heart for they shall see God." God's safeguards to purity are: (1) The natural Instinct to purity to which we must do violence before we enter a life of Iniquity. (2) The peculiar sacredness and glory of an . unstained life, obedient in all its workings to the divine law. God has. poured out his glory and beauty and holiness to teach us this lesson. (3) the rewards of a controlled and lawful exercise of life powers. (4) The comradeship of true, women-mothers, wives , and sweethearts. (6) The sanctity of home. At this point Mr. Mahy drew a dramatic contrast between the life in the home circle and the life of the immoral man. God's other safeguards to purity, said the speaker are the certain and awful punishments which come upon the Individual, and upon society as a result of Impurity, Program of Purity. ' God's positive 'program of purity, according to Mr. Mahy, it the cultivation of a pure-thought life, the miracle of Christ In the heart which admits him and the right care of the physical life as to diet and exercise. Hundreds of men were as one man to take the covenant which Mr. Mahy propounded, and In recognition of which they stood, the covenant being aa toV tows: k Trusting Jesus Christ for help I promise to enter with renewed rigor Into the fight for personal and social purity and to be a pure white knight for the defense of the honor and purlfof true womanbbod and girlhood." The scene was a very Impressive cae and the occasion was a distinct
moral uplift which will ultimately be felt by the entire city. I , . .

A FARMER KILLED ' - BY. TRACTIOH CAR Crew of Car Unaware of the Tragedy and Body Found by Next Car Crew. ' (Palladium Special) Eaton. O., Nov. 21. A. J. Smith, 49, a prominent farmer residing at Brown's Station, one and one-half miles east of West Manchester, was instantly killed Saturday night at Harsbmanvllle when he w&s struck by an Ohio Electric passenger car. The crew of the car that struck Smith
was unaware of the accident, and his
lifeless body was picked up by the fol
lowing car which was enroute to
Dayton. , , ,
The exact details of the accident are lacking, but It Is believed that Smith by mistake boarded a D., S. & U. car
out of Dayton Instead of coming to
West Alexandria on the D. & W. branch. It is believed that after he had discovered his mistake he concluded to ride to Ithaca and then walk from there to his home, about five miles from that point. How he happened to be at Harshmanville is unknown, but It is thought that after he had been carried through Ithaca he decided to get off and await another car to carry him back. When picked up Smith's skull was badly crushed, his left leg broken, and minor bruises coveredls body. He was well known In Preble county and was highly respected. He was a member of the West Manchester Odd Fellows lodge. He is survived by a wife and, nine children.

tban any epidemic ot rear tnat nas been started In a long time. The only thing that It can be compared with is the "crime wave" that a municipal police department stirs up when an enlarged appropriation or new laws giving it more despotic power are needed. On such occasions , some or
dinary crime is "featured" and covered with a mantle of mystery. The
police discover new and more sensational '-clues hourly and this goes on until the purpose back of it all is
achieved. Then the alarming spec
tres fade away and are forgotten. Infantile paralysis Is not a new bugbear, although It has been widely heralded as the most modern of mysterious diseases. As a matter of fact it was known and commented upon by doctors SO or 40 years ago. No pne worried about it very much until lately. As a money-maker for the medical
profession it has entirely eclipsed pellagra or the hookworm. When this excitement was first started it was asserted, for instance, that infantile paralysis sought its victims exclusively among the children of the poor. This theory received a setback the other' day when the two daughters of Congressman Frank O. Lowden of Oregon, 111., were taken ill with what eminent Chicago specialists called anterior poliomyelitis, which is t'.ie fear-inspiring Greek name for the disease. These little girls are the
-granddaughters of Mrs. George M.
Pullman, and it is said will inherit her vast wealth. Congressman Lowden, their father, is very rich also. SO the "poor children" theory was dropped overboard. Hardly a day passes without theory after theory being exploded and others more picturesque taking their place. It reminds one of a detective bureau that is avid for advertisement and while pretending to seek an alleged criminal spends more time in thinking of fresh ways to keep in the day's news. It is unethical for doctors to advertise, but a certain class of physicians get around 'that very cleverly by taking advantage of the excitement over every much-talked-of disease. He lets It be known to the newspapers that he has made some important discovery or has evolved some sensational theories in regard to its origin, treatment or cure. He allows himself to be interviewed, reluctantly, of course. The adherents of the "medico-political" school scorn the "old fogy" methods of the doctors of the past generation the men who placed their skill and humanity above all else and to whom pecuniary reward was only incidental. The excuse of the doctor of this school is that his profession is overcrowded and that the man with the most imagination gets the business. It is this same commercial spirit that is back of the movement to form a national department of health, with its head a cabinet officer, which would place the direction of the doctoring of the inhabitants of the United States in the hands of one particular school of medicine and give it a practical monopoly. The history of 'this Infantile paralylsis Bcare Is one of the most interesting of 'any of these alarms. It dis
plays a breadth of imagination that rises above the mere picturesque. The conflicting theories of methods of the
various eminent experts who have "permitted" themselves to be interviewed on the , subject show with startling clearness how absurd and impossible it would be to direct a national health department with such physicians at its head. The cause of infantile paralysis has been assigned to scores of different things. Last summer it was gravely asserted that germ-laden dust was at the bottom of the whole matter. Hardly had one set of eminent physicians announced the dust discovery before another, jealous of their fame, said that It was not dust at all. but that chickens were to blame. They pointed to several cases of infantile paralysis in Montgomery county. Maryland, and to the deaths of a large number of chickens in the same region, both apparently from the same cause. This chicken idea was a brilliant one and it was speedily followed by other equally fanciful surmises as to the origin of anterior poliomyelitis. It was successively ascribed to treeblight, soothing syrups. heredity, dampness, chilled food, Buffalo gnat, dissipation, and a score ot other things. The District Medical association of Washington, D. C., became so alarmed about the "epidemic" that a resolution was offered at one of its meetings that an appeal be made to President Taft to order an official Inquiry into the disease. This motion, however, met with defeat. Certain clear-thinking physicians say ' there was no epidemic ot infantile paralysis and
ot the congress and will remain until
the holidays. It is probable mat tre nominations for these postal vacancies will be made after be arrives at Washington. - Thomas Dunbsr. t present postmaster at Centervllle, It is thought, will be reappointed. .

(American News Service) ' San Antonio, Tex., Nov. 21. Maidens from New York to Portland, Ore., and from Chicago to Kansas City and St Louis, are begging for Texas cowboys for husbands. The mail of Governor Campbell at Austin and of Postmaster Stevens at San Antonio Is growing heavier daily with applications, many ot them accompanied by photographs from women of all ages who want to live on the plains, a care free and healthy life, away from the "conventionalities and superficialities of the great cities." So great has become this flood of requests that several Texas cities are beginning to sit up and take notice. The Beaumont chamber of commerce offers to' furnish rice, free of charge to shower Texas brides; a justice, of the peace in Van Zandt county offers to, perform the marriage ceremony free of charge to couples settling in that county. The Texas 'commercial secretaries' association has prepared data proving conclusively that a married couple in Texas can live cheaper than one single person, and some one has jocularly said that now Cupid should have smooth sailing in the Lone Star state if some one will furnish the wedding raiment.
How to Find Affinities. By correspondence with, the San Antonio postmaster, or the governor of the state, any bachelor in Texas can probably find their affinities very easily. There are photographs by the hundreds, and both offices resemble matrimonial bureaus. In one day's mail there are letters from Maine, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Iowa. Illinois, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts and, Ohio. One young woman declares thaCthe "men ot Philadelphia are too fast and I want to marry only a genuine man, one not vitiated by the life of this terrible city. Another wants a cowboy .husband, and says she is "a natural blonde, with & loving disposition, a jolly girl of twenty-seven." Another desires "a real .Texas man,' at least six feet ' tall, weighing two' hundred pounds, with ' regular features and smooth shaven face who does not smoke or chew tobacco." One young woman from Boston writes in heavy cream colored paper to the governor saying, "You may think this is the

cough syrup, and the best part of it is, it can be made - at home about 8 times cheaper than one can buy, labeled cougb syrups.

Make a syrup with a pint of sugar and a half pint of boiling water, stir and let cool. Then fill up the bottle with syrup, shake well and take a teaspoonful 8 to 10 times daily or as needed. Give children lees according to age. It is very pleasant to take.
