'More statesmanship and less politics in congress would be a change for which the public would be devoutly thankful. Leadership that has a vision of the country's needs which transcends any petty local consideration and desire to return to office is a quality that is of supreme importance when important questions press for answer. Not all members of congress lack the ability to view affairs from the national viewpoint instead of the parochial. Some members of that body are moved only by considerations that have national effect. They forget all about their home states and districts and vote yes or no, as the decision affects the whole country. If every member of congress acted on this theory and controlled his actions by that consideration, legislation would move quickly and would be of benefit to the whole country. The difference between a .statesman and a politician is the angle from which he views a proposal. If he is a politician, the thought upper
most in his mind is the political effect his vote' will have on his constituents. If he fears that hi3 constituents will resent his action, his vote will reflect his controlling motive, even if the desired legislation is of the highest import to the whole country. This is the spirit that accounts for the delay in the passage of bills, in, the countless number of conimittee meetings and conferences. Many of our national legislators fear their political future more than the effect of ill-advised legislation on the country as a whole. If a measure will benefit the whole country in five or ten years, if it has in it merits which his constituency does not see at the time, the statesman votes for it, regardless of his future. If his constituency does not see fit to return him because they were opposed to his action, he takes his defeat manfully, knowing that after all he served the country-better and wiser than the voters thought. Statesmen do not fear their constituency. They fear their consciences and the effect of their legislation more than the clamor and opposition of disgruntled voters who lack the vision to see the wisdom of correct action. Politicians spar for time in the legislative halls until they find out the sentiment of the public, instead of studying the bill closely to see if it will be of genuine service to the country. If they would be guided by their convictions, arrived at after hard study, they would not be courting popular approval, but would be seeking the welfare of the country.
Dinner Stories
"See the spider, my son, spinning its web," said the instructive parent to his small eon. "Is it not wonderful? Do you reflect that no man could spin that web, no matter how hard he might try?" "Well, what of it?" replied the up-to-date offspring. "Watch me spin this top. No spider can do that, no matter how hard he might try." Pupils in a primary grade recently were Instructed to develop their powers of observation, as well as their descriptive ability, by a series of "Human Nature Observations," as the course was called. They were told to keep their eyes open for interesting happenings of a human nature character and report at school When they were called on to give their observations, Elizabeth, six years old, reported as follows: "Last night I was walking through Commercial park, and I saw a young man and a girl sitting real close together on a bench, and the man's head was on the girl's shoulder, and I thought it was very interesting"

It is a beautiful, long and silky product. This species is grown in its perfection along the coasts of South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. The fiber of Sea Island cotton averages about one and threequarter inches long, with one and onehalf to two and one-half inches in the extreme. It Is adapted to the finest thread and lace work, and other products for which the short staple is not suited. This cotton is also grown in Egypt from American seed.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can", "Take It", "Up" THE THING CAN STILL BE DONE Three types of men have to do with the building of the world the starter, the finisher, and the one who starts and goes right through and does the finishing himself. I have in mind a man who started one of the most stupendous undertakings ever attempted, just as the war broke. Full of vision, shrewd, energetic, and with that faith which only experience can give, he had no trouble in getting associated with him many of the ablest moneyed men in America and the world. His concern grew into millions of dollars in trade, and was known wherever there was an commerce at all worth while. Then the war ended. The money system of the world fainted like a hard pressed human being under stress. Partners withdrew. The stock of the once great concern shrunk to practically nothing. But there was one man who stood by the man who started the idea and concern. And after pledging every cent he had in the world amounting to millions like a sea captain, he stood erect and strong while his once great Bhip of business sank into a receivership. I can see the fine.square jaw of this man, his straight forward looking eyes, his firm set mouth. And this is what he is saying: "The thing can still be done!" I read about this young man at the height of his career. He Is only 46 years old now. His name is George A. Gaston. He will be heard of again. When a man of his character says that a thing can be done, it will be done. And he will be the man to do it A whole financial system may give way, a country may be left in ashes, but with a few Gastons around, there is bound to be put together a better and stronger world that will rise above ruin and b greater than any former success. If YOU can say that the thing can still be done, it won't matter how many millions say that it can't! Copyright 1921, by George Matthew Adams

Perverse Animals I ride in pomp ad circumstance, in my large shining ambulance that cost three thousand bucks; with pride I drive my gorgeous rig, and now and then I squash a pig, or maim some hens and ducks. The road is paved and grows no grass, no chickenfeed or kindred sass, the critters to attract; yet in their 'feeble minded way, they haunt the public road all day; they have no sense nor tact. They'll leave the green and grassy plain, they'll quit the meadows, lush with grain, the orchard and the lawn, to loaf upon the dusty pike, until a rubber tire they strike and then they're dead and gone. The cows will leave the grateful shade along the highway to parade, a 6trange besotted band; and all the critters of the f3rin in naked asphalt find a charm that's hard to understand. By dell and spinney I proceed, past cockle bur and jimson weed, and by the roadside pool, by vagrant vine and clumps of gorse, and here and there I hit a horse, and now and then a mule. In vain this sort of dirge I sing; one can't do Justice to this thing, thus briefly, in an ode; the pike with animals is dark, it seems to me that Noah's Ark was emptied in -the .road. I drive with 6tern unceasing tare. I watch the landscape everywhere, but it's of little use; for men must work and women weep, and now and then I kill a sheep, and now and then a goose.

CONFESSIONS OF A CYNIC. I am very fond of dynamite firecrackers when they are shot off over in the next, state. I like humid weather, but not in a selfish way. I would just as soon let the other people have some of it. I always read all the fiction magazines I can get. I think the ads are very interesting. I never worry about little things like microbes. There are so many bigger things that are worth while. I would like to know what kind of a battle fleet a Pacific battle fleet is, anyhow. I have never had time to play golf, and don't believe I have missed very much. The cost of living has gone down, but perhaps not in your particular neighborhood. PROF. STEINBRUGGE SAYS. The rejuvenation of human beings has been discussed. By the use of a gland and a surgical operation, it is claimed that the middle-aged and old may be made young. The theory has been given some credence by certain members of the medical profession. It will not be an uncommon sight to see an elderly spinster skipping rope in the park or several distinguished bankers playing marbles on the street. Old members at the club will order two pieces of pie and three plates of ice cream for lunch. The board of governors and patronesses of charitable institutions will indulge in kissing games after the meeting. Can you imagine a bishoD crvin hwanso o

Cocoon Growth Affected
by Barometric Pressure The Swiss scientist, M. A. Pictet, has made an extended series of experiments showing the effect of the weather upon the opening of the cocoons of moths and butterflies. The data discovered and published by him are most interesting and obviously of great significance in agricultural, since hundreds of thousands of the farmer's worst enemies spend a portion of their lives in the cocoon phase. It was found that in most varities
of insects the emergence of the pupa
from the cocoon coincides with the
fall of the barometer, and that a rel
ative increase of the internal pressure within the cocoon is a necessary factor in the escape of the insect from its prison. When there is an increase of the atmospheric pressure during the entire time of this dormant stage of the paupa, or even during the latter half of this period alone, the duration of the dormant stage may be extended from 10 to 20 percent. Futhermore when the emergence of the insect is too long retarded, the pupa perishes in the cocoon. A fall of a single millimeter of the mercury in the barometer tube was found to be enough to cause the opening of the sufficiently mature cocoons, while, on the other hand, an increase in the atmospheric pressure postponed the coming forth of such insects for as much as two, three or even four days, until the barometer fell once more.
NEW ITALIAN SMOKE.
ROME, July 11. Somehow the Italian government has solved the problem of a cheap national cigar. Prices of tobacco have been soaring to such luxurious heights that the ordinary cigar smoker could not purchase. Accordingly, experts were assigned the task of getting up a new cigar. They have just announced their accomplishments of the task. The new cigar will soon be put on the market and will sell for two cents. It will resemble the Pittsburgh stogie in shape.
