The stalk of the plant is very pithy, and even when compressed Into blocks this pith Is capable of absorbing a tremendous quantity of water. These blocks, in which the pith retains some of its flexibility, have been employed with much success In the solution of the vexed prKlem of the lining of a battleship's sloea. .They are placed between two walla of steel, and the substance is si resilient that it completely closes up the hole made by a projectile, keeping out the water for a long time. Another little known use of the sunflower is In the manufacture of cigars. There is not & part of the plant that la Without commercial value. The seed, which is raised by hundreds of millions of pounds every year in Russia, makes a, palatable edible oil, with a residue of seed cake for cattle, or it may be fed In the kernel to poultry. The blossoms furnish honey first and then an excellent yellow dye. As for the stalks, the Chinese are clever enough to get a ort of silky fiber from them, and they are also good for fuel and for the production of potash. In New England It Is believed that the sunflower "keeps away malaria." It Is also believed that the blossoms follow the sun in Us daily course, but that Is not true. When the Immortals Nodded. The French papers have made much Of a Blip by M. Emilie Faguet In his oration before the academy. The academician rendered to Caesar more than waa Caesar's, for he gave the fighter and writer credit for a line which belongs to Cato. But It seems the Immortals are not Immune from lapsus linguae. General Langlois got mixed up with Palestro and Solferino. Even Scribe and Moliere refer to the revocation of the edict of Nantes, which took place in 16S5, twelve years after Moliere's death. But perhaps a more glaring Instance is that of Monteequin, who, in his "Esprit des Lois, Tolumn 1. chapter xx!, 22, writes, "1 have many times deplored the blindness of the council of Francis I., who rebuffed Christopher Columbus when he propounded his scheme for India."

The War is Over.

Civil strife in the Stivers family, which has been waged furiously in the editorial columns of the Liberty Herald between father and son since the Republican national convention, has been ended. Stivers, Senior, and his wife henceforth will manage the Herald, which will be used as a weapon to- fight the battles of President Taft in Union county. Stivers, Junior, surrenders his interest in the publication to his mother, and from now on he will be a free lance champion of the Progressive cause in the same county. In the current. Issue of the Herald the Peace of Liberty is proclaimed in the following statement: By a change in the ownership of the Liberty Herald newspaper and printing establishment, Mrs. Minnie Stivers becomes an equal partner in tfie business with her husband and will become the local editor and financial manager of the business. The editorial and publication management will be conducted by the undersigned and The Herald will stand true to the principles and policies of the National Republican party and will loyally support Taft and Sherman for president and vice president. Respectfully, Charles W. Stivers. Under this card there appears a statement signed by the son, Orion L. Stivers, in which he announces his retirement from active newspaper work and significantly expresses his appreciation of the "cordial support and encouragemenfhe has received, significant because young Mr. Stivers of late has been publishing vigorous and enthusiastic editorials advocating the Progressive cause to offset the reactionary articles penned by his father, lashed broadside to the Bull Moose column. In the same issue in which appears the announcement of the change in management, Charles W. Stivers celebrates the reclamation to the Republican party that part of the Herald which had strayed into the Progressive fold, by publishing an editorial, the caption of which is, "Bull Moose Scoundrelism," in which he peppers the Moose vigorously with birdshot, and flies to the rescue of Leo J. Reynolds, candidate for representative from Wayne county on the G. O. P. ticket. Because Mr. Reynolds has announced himself a standpatter and, in consequen.ee, has been denied Progressive support, Charles W. Stivers believes, as does Mr. Timothy Nicholson of this city, Reynolds has been the victim of base injustice.

A Convention City. The new month, which will be ushered In Sunday promises to be a very busy one for Richmond. Before its close the city will have been hostess to at least three thousand citizens of Indiana. Next Tuesday Miss Richmond will greet three or four hundred workers in the Progressive ranks, who will be here from all over the county and the sixth district to attend the congressional convention, the county representative convention and the joint convention. Progressives do not confine themselves alone to progressiveness in politics. They are authorized on all varieties of progress, therefore Miss Richmond will take pains to show her guests that she has long since discarded the title of the "most conservative city in the state," and is now as progressive in civic and business affairs as she is in politics. She has ample proof to support this claim in her great factories, her prosperous citizens, and her public works, which have state-wide fame. It pays to advertise and it pays best to advertise to progressives, for the progressive is always more appreciative than the conservative. With three or four hundred of the best type of progressives within her domain next Tuesday what a splendid chance Miss Richmond again has for spreading her fame as a most substantial and hustling community; an ideal place for one to live and work. While Miss Richmond is entertaining political progressives Tuesday she will be busy on the same day greeting fraternal progressives, the delegates to the state meeting of Knights of the Golden Eagle. On the twelfth of next month Miss Richmond will have the opportunity of Bhowing the brethren of democracy, who will flock here from all over the county to attend a convention, that while Bhe is progressive in politics she knows no sect nor political party when she plays the role of hostess. On September 25, county commissioners and county attorneys from all over the state will gather in Richmond, and the fatted calf awaits them. The "good roads" problem will be the principal question up for consideration and we hope the commissioners of Wayne county will give undivided attention to the discussions on this question. If the State - Commissioners' association will decide to give its solid support to a legislative program calling for modern road laws they will confer a blessing on the people of Indiana. But the Commissioners' invasion will not end the gay "at. home" month for Miss Richmond. During the closing days of September she will entertain those who form that element of society on which all progress and prosperity is founded and depends, the sturdy knights of labor. The state convention of the Indiana Federation of Labor will be one of the largest meetings ever held in this city. It is probable that it will be attended by fifteen hundred men from all parts of the state. Every trade will be represented. No city could entertain more desirable guests than those who are enrolled In the state's great army of labor. We can assure the knights of labor that after one experience with the Richmond-brand of hospitality they will come back for more.

For The Palladium: I have carefully read the nearly three columns by Rudolph G. Leeds in yesterday's Palladium finding fault with the article entitled "Honor and the Square Deal Versus Political Partisanship," which duty impelled me to offer to the city press, and attempting to defend his position relative to the nominees of the regularly authorized primary election last spring. He sustains my parenthetical expression ("called bosses in other parties") and illustrates It by naming several noted leaders in the Republican and Democrat parties; and the defense of his position, alone referred to, is on the low plane of political expediency which, concretely stated, is, "the end justifies the means." Respectfully, TIMOTHY NICHOLSON. LEST WE FORGET. When I was a child I knew a man who was such a voluable liar, that he repeated his stories so many times that he finally convinced himself of their truthfulness, and later we have read in the newspapers so much, and so often about the "High Cost of Living," with so much coloring and exaggeration, that many unthinking people have taken it for granted that what they read is true, and it 1b also probable that many of the weak minded reporters actually think they are writing something of interest and of value, but they do not give any facts, or ofTer a remedy, they are simply faultfinders and kickers, who made the 4 mistake of chosing a vocation by not being at the head of a prominent manufacturing firm, or managing a bank, at least something more suitable to their ability and attainments, I assert and am ready to demonstrate that the necessary cost of living is not at this time, in Richmond, any higher than it was either twenty or forty years ago. I also assert that wages are higher, employment more common, prosperity more general and money more plenty. People of all classes are spending more money and indulging in luxuries -not even thought of by the wealthier people of forty years ago, and with this condition I am well satisfied and greatly pleased, and only hope we may also continue and improve, but it does make me tired to hear people who are spending money lavishly on all sorts of luxuries and even at times most foolishly, setting up such a howl about the highcost of living condemning the tariff and every one who has more to spend wrought up to such a pitch that they are discontented, and so unhappy that they are not able to properly enjoy what they have in greatest plenty. Permit me to make some positive statements and challenge any one for proof of error. Forty years ago I was housekeeping in the city of Richmond and purchased my supplies of George Knollenberg, Clayton Hunt and J. M. Eggemeyer end I believe they will now corroborate me when I say that everything now on sale except meats is better and cheaper in 1912 than it was either twenty or forty years ago, that hours PILES CURED AT HOME DY NEW ABSORPTION METHOD.

of labor are shorter, and pay better. I remember a few prices of the years 1872 to 1874: Coal oil 80 eeats per gallon, coffee 60 cents per pound, soft brown sugar 16 cents per pound, flour $4.00 per hundred, matches that are now ten cents per dozen boxes, were then 10 cents per box, illuminating gas was $4.00 per thousand and the dear old Palladium, a weekly of one half the present size, and guaranteed to be void of any telegraph news was $1.50 per annum. In those days I cultivated a good garden and raised my own fruit and vegetables, and if I did not raise them I did not have them, so bought nothing of the kind. There are a few other things I did not purchase, such as electric lights, and power, beer, automobiles, street car rides, theater and picture show tickets, telephones, city water and ice. I was healthier and happy, lived like my neighbors, worked hard and saved some money. Shame on the lazy person who will not cultivate his garden, or even care for his own house and person, and devotes his time loafing around the saloon or the Y. M. C. A. finding fault and complaining of his condition. The time has gone by when the farmer is as verdant as some people think. He is as well posted as the city man, in fact he has come to his own proper status. Yelping at the tariff, and the trusts does not fool him. If meat is high he furnishes the cattle and hogs and does not want them any cheaper, and if the tariff causes high prices of meats and provisions he says just keep the tariff, and he also knows that every trust made article that he uses is better and much cheaper than a few years ago, before the trusts entered the manufacturing business. He is the sturdy sensible voter, therefore don't be surprised that he does not enthuse at many of the senseless attacks we see printed daily. It is easy to make assertions and enter denials, but will not some kicker give some facts to dipprove what I have written. OLIVER H. BOGUE.

Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE.

A MORNING PRAYER. Give me morning courage the courage that fronts my day of toll with zeal and cheerfulness. Throughout this day of task and anxiouit thought let me go, each hour a smIU upon my lips and hope within my heart, so that at eventide I may look back upon a day of houeet effort worthily essayed. And. whether I shsll succeed or fail, bring me to look forward to another day wheu I shall try ajjuin. AndShould I make a new friend todny may 1 le worthy of his friendship, and the worthy friend I hare may I hold fast. Help me that I may keep the opn vision of the perfoct life, that I m.iy pattern my imperfect life thereby. !.-t me hold faijih and tar udvumvd the ban iter of my manhood. I-et not four have dominion over uu. And may all tiatn-d ami all -nvy lc part far from lue. Help me to le of good cheer and generous and frank and seenily. May I live today, because there may be iio tomorrow. Let me give today, because tomorrow I may not have wherewith to give. Let- me love today, for tomorrow my loved one may have gone away. And I pray This day let me share whatever of good may come to me with those who make their stormy juiss of human life along with me. And If sorrow shull come to me may I find my fellow travelers to the bar full of sympathy and helpfulness. AuV above all else, I pray May 1 be this day. and every day, an optimist, going cheerfully forward with faith and zest, so that some sorrowing soul, seeing my shining face, may take hope and heart again. And these things I prayThat I may not forget and that I may do that which I ought to do and leave undone that which I ought uot to do. And bring me to the end of this go-l day and all my days without fear and without reproach, honest and undented and satisfied. Thin is my prayer. Amen.
