One Form of Patriotism Patriotism is taught in the schools, its virtues explained, its necessity driven home with force. Patriotism and loyalty to country can be
shown in more ways than one. Just now Americans have an opportunity of exemplifying it in a high degree. That is, See America First. Thousands of Americans in former years left millions of dollars in Europe to contribute materially to the wealth of the nations visited by tourists. Travel is one of the best forms of'recreation and amusement. Besides this it has a cultural value of no mean importance. Perhaps this accounts for the thousands who annually preferred a tour in Europe where there are many places of historical importance to a trip through the United States. Despite the agitation of many patriotic Americans that citizens See America First, the appeal received little answer and less support. Now,
however, with Europe in confusion, a trip through the United States has become an unavoidable alternative to those who wish to travel extensively. There is no gainsaying the observation "that no one really can understand a section of the United States until he has seen it and spent time studying it. The advantage of . a proper, understanding of the United States is of paramount importance to our national legislators, and yet it is a sad commentary that many of them have not been west of the Mississippi river, and are ignorant of the needs of a tremendous area for which they enact laws. Legislators and voters would be guided by more wisdom if they knew their own country from first hand observation. They would be in a position to act with intelligence, especially in an age in which the economical problems are so closely interwoven with political questions. But passing this phase of the question, and looking at the problem from the standpoint of a tourist and nature lover who is interested in scenic grandeur and display, what vistas of beauty are unfolded in the mountain ranges and deserts of the West, among the lakes of the North, and the broad stretches of the South. A visit to the Panama-Pacific exposition this year, with the advantageous transportation facilities offered by the Railroads, will do much to forward the cause of See America First. It will engender a patriotism for the United States. It will reveal the tremendous expanse of the United States, its resources, and above all equip the citizen to enjoy residence in this country all the more. '

NEUTRALITY, PEACE AND PRAYER. Editor Palladium: "Preaching the kingdom of God and teaching these things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ," is the crowning glory that reveals to all mankind the evolution of the soul, its immortality, its powers and possibilities. Likewise, preaching neutrality and teaching these all-important things which concern peace at home as well as abroad, should be the sacred duty of every neutral nation upon the globe, both raen and women. Love and peace are of themselves the highest level of intelligence, and this is the only firm foundation upon which may be established universal peace for all eternity. Has this peace-loving nation been "neutral in fact as well as in name?" Have we b?en "impartial in thought as well as in action?" and teaching .iT.d talking love and peace as we hllOMld? Theory without practice is unai'ail- ' n.-r, and unless we are neutral in every true sense of the word, and -pray w.thout ceasing for peace and love to reign Eupreme in all the world, we ."re not doing our duty as a nation. That "solemn vord of warning" to the people of the United States should over be the uppermost thought in the mind rf every person. We should "be wise as serpents and gentle as doves." and make a strenuous effort to suppress the greatest war in all the annals of history, instead of prolonging it by furnishing munitions of war. In these perilous times when we see how "man's inhumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn," when we read of the mi'ilidns that are slain in the battlefield, when we realize the thousands upon thousands of dear women and children who are suffering from the effects of an uncalled-for war, how can this great nation, where peace and plenty reigns supreme, make such false steps in the momentous con-
of the thousands upon tens of thousands of poor women and little children now homeless and destitute of food and raiment, and the many fine mansions converted Into hospitals, and all the real suffering in those hospitals, and the moans and cries and suffering in so many households, we should be reminded of what that good peace-loving Mr. McKinley said when war was about to be declared during his administration, the Spanish-American war: "I do not care for the property that will be destroyed, nor the money that will be expended if this unhappy war should come, but the thought of human suffering that must enter many households almost overwhelms me." And of course we do not know what this dreadful war now going on in Europe will result in for the American people, if something is not done real soon, but one thing we do know, and that is every time an American citizen, whether born under the Stars and Stripes of the American flag, or whether the breath of life was first breathed under some foreign domination, should keep alive his love for the grand and glorious old America. Therefore, "Be ye, doers of the word and not hearers only," (James 1:22), if you love your God, yourself and your neighbor, for as Tolstoy says, "Only those live who do good." "Blessed are the peace-makers," and if we will only be good and true to ourselves and "love thy neighbor as thyself," it would not be long until this passage of scripture is fulfilled. ."They shall beat their swords into plough shares and their spears into pruning hooks; natioa shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more." (Micah 4:3).
The world says It wants peace, but at present it certainly does not look very much like it, but who knows ; what it may want tomorrow? Is there j a God of war as some people claim?!
Is "war a Christian duty?" Did Germany need a conflict to receive virtues?" Is it "God's test for the nation?" Emphatically no! There is no God of war, never was, nor ever will be. There is only one God (John 17:3, 1st Co. 8:4; Eph. 4:5, 1st Tim. 2:5) and that God is a God of love (1st John 4:8) and peace (Romans 15:33) goodness and mercy, eternal and unchangeable in the heavens above. "God is love," and love knows no wrath or hatred. "Love is the fulfilling of the law," the only
law, and "Great peace have they who
What
in the highest on earth, peace and good will toward men" (Luk 2:14). Think peace, feel peace, talk peace, and soon you will "Live in peace and the God of love and peace shall dwell in you," (2nd Cor. 13:11) for "As a man thinketh so is he." And "now the God of peace be with you all," (Romans 15:33) is the earnest prayer of PROF. SAM E. VERTREEZ, The world's most proficient portrayer of human nature, Richmond, Ind., Rural Route No. 1.

Theatrical Notes
Promises of the Press Agent.
Jack Laifs big New York and Chicago success, "Help Wanted," is coming. After making the most phenomenal theatrical run ever known in Chicago at the Cort theatre, "Help Wanted" will be seen at the Gennett for one performance, Friday night, March 12, with the same cast that has been smashing all records through the middle west. Running half a year on Broadway and with a record of thirtynine weeks at the Cort theatre, Chicago, "Help Wanted" comes w.th the strongest credentials to draw a capacity house of any show that has visited this city in a decade. Owing to the long engagements in New York and Chicago this company has been delayed in making its tour, but not it has gotten under way and is surpassing both "Within the Law" and "Peg O" My Heart," for business.

"The love of money is the root of all evil," (1 Tim. 6-10); and where a few of the leaders of this North American government worship the golden calf, there are hundreds of thousands of both men and women crying out, "Let justice be done though the heavens fall." Think of the many thousands of the most intelligent and good women in our land today who have so lovingly presented their case and have been earnestly pleading with Mr. Wilson for emancipation without avail! Think of the many thousands (28.000) who recently in a petition asked Mr. Wilson to embargo exports of war materials, and even this important humanitarian motive was refused without consideration! Think of the president of the United fitates, Mr. Wilson, warning the newspapers, that no editor could tell him anything worth knowing, when they are the moulders of public sentiment. The press wields a most powerful influence and should not overlook its opportunity to bring about peace. "The voice of the people is the voice of God."

SALTS IF BACKACHY AND KIDNEYS HURT
Drink lota of water and stop eating meat for a while if your Bladder troubles you.
When you wake up with backache and' dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eating too much meat, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggist and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or
