As long as he kept his feet on the soil he was I invincible. When he lost contact with the earth, however, as when Heicules held him in the air and i pommeled him. he became weak. Lindbergh, apparently, is the di rect antithesis of Antaeus. He needs to soar up into the empty air everv now and then to regain his energy. The first few days Lindbergh spent :in America on his return from France were pretty strenuous. Indeed, it be came observed that t!:e young man was under quite a strain. He was growing faintly irritable, was los ing something of the boyish freh nesss of his engaging 5iti At all events. Lindbergh, at the. end of his second day ;i- New York foui.-d himself at his f-ont door an hour after midnight Hj was tired, glau to be alone in th; cool night. Ti. the hou e was a br, : r.d the r.s siiirmce tha; he mii'.t sleep as lat-? a;; he wished. What did he do? Did he go to that kd and sink down with a sigh of relief? He did not. instead he headed for Roosevelt field, borrowed a plane, flew to Washington, got his own plane, the Spirit of St. Louis, flew back, and then amused himself for half an Lour by cutting a-riul capers high over the heads cf the mechanics be low. Then, when he finally came down, Lindbergh was himself once more. He was jovial, cheerful, carefree. He lausrhed and chattered with the re porters, who had tired his patience : at he r severely the day be.'ore. He seemed at perce with the werld and everybody in it. lie had. it seemed, renewed his strength by his contact with the open sky. And it is just that trait, we be lieve, that puts the finishing touch on this young hero. It relates him to the eagle, wheeling and circling high above the ti:ne-stained. car-worn earth. We felt all alone:, as we read cf his feat, that this lad was cast in a mold different from ours; that he was somehow a child of the air, dart ing, soaring inhabitant of a realm clearer and freer than our own; and this, somehow proves it. Lindbergh is rapidly becoming a iegend. For all our matter-of-fact appurtenances of modernity our newspapers, our telegraph wires, our photographs, and our general skepti cism he is in a fair way of being transmited. before our eyes, iato an unreal, almost fictional creature of myth and fancy; a being who is more at home in the air than on earth, and leaves this earth for some untried sphere on the either side cf the moon. And that is as it should be. We have too few legends, too few myth ical heroes. We are tied down, and we, need a Knight of the Upper Air. Lindbergh it is. Hail Lindbergh! : o : STUDY OF HUMAN NATUES If you want to obtain a good idea of the hurry of the present age, a railroad crossing just as the signal br-11 is sounded for a gate to come down is an excellent place. An instance like this happened one day. the signal was given and two outstanding incidents occurred. One e'.river accelerated his speed and reached the other side just as the gates come down; he made it but had only a fraction of a second to spare. The other incident was of a driver who in his desire to get as near the train as possible in order that he might not lose any time when the gntes were lifted drove too far; he was right under the gates and had to go back about ten feet. Now these are only small matters, but they are a good indication of what is happening dozens of times every day; they also prove the truth of the assertion we have made that only too many seem to think that sec onds count in reaching their destina tion, regardless of the possibility that they may have months to repent in some hospital, or the alternative that they may never know what did take them out of this world. -:o:- Nlcaragua has been given to under stand implicitly that no more wars will be allowed down there until they are first passed on by Uncle Sam. If any faction has an idea for a war it must first draw, up a general sketch of it and forward it to Washington. Colonel Stinson has been made a sort of high commissioner of wars or some thing, and will look the proposed war over and decldew hether it can be made to pay. No revolution can be operated without a permit, and all revolutionists must be able to show both registration cards and operators' lincenses. :a:- There are more than 1 millian laws in force in the United States. An other one is evidently needed, making murder illegal in Chicago. WTM.DOTTti Moye Pays Cash for Poultry, Eggs, Cream and Hides We Sell Oyster Shell, Chick Feeds! and Salt Your Patronage Solicited!!

Naturally the flight of Capt. Lind bergh claimed mrst attention and his success was cheered loudest. He was first to accomplish the great feat of crossing the ocean without a stop. Arthur Brisbane, in his comment on the air flights, makes the follow ing inquiries: "What will military and naval gen tlemen say now about their theory that 'the airplane is no real menace to this country. Out of two attempts to fly across the ocean by American fliers both succeed. "What would be the probable per centage if five thousand foreign avia tors, with full government backing and unlimited expenditure of money, sho tld fly the other way on a hostile errand?" The New York Post, owned by Cy rus If. K. Curtis, says: "These two flights show a new wqr mpnacc iinii thp flip-lit n?5ilinpl in the oninion of military officials the cloak of military menace, emphasiz ingthe need for adequate air defense." While most people have long recog nized the possibilities of aircraft in war, few will be ready to assume that the accomplishments cf Capt. Lind bergh and Mr. Chambelin will in any way hasten the menace airplanes may add to the slaughter following the trail of war. As a result it is not probable that any considerable number of people will think of war w hen they chance , to iccall the ocean flights.

The achievements of Lindbergh and Chamberlin will very largely concen - trate thought on both sides ot tne ocean upon aviation in generalas a! commercial proposition and not as a' war possiblility. As another has said: "What was done by both planes noints the way to advancement of the cause of flying, not as a war pos sibility." And as another has said: "What was done by both planes, points the way to advancement of the ' cause of flying, not in military but in commercial lines. The Ballanca plane carried a passenger and also had demonstrated the mighty possi bilities of the future of aviation." :o: Statistics show that more divorces are obtained in the third year of mar-J On reading the petition of Hermia riage than in any other.

IN the later years of life there is apt to be a slowing up of the bodily functions. Good elimination, however, is just as essential to the old as to the young. Many old folks have learned the value of Doan's Pills when a stimulant diuretic to the kidneys is required. Scanty or burning passages of kidney secre tions are often signs of improper kid- ney function. In roost every com- j m unity are scores of users and en- t dorsers who acckim the merit of Doan's.
