NATURE.
Edwin O. Jackson.
Nature la fine, but not na man la
fine;
Tet man is fine as Nature's para
gon;
She Is the sea hla spirit floats
upon,
She is the mother, heartless yet
divine;
No plummet ever sank below the
line
Of her unfathomed deeps, nor
pierced her dawn,
From whence all vital energy Is
drawn;
Nor from her night has ever
dropped a sign.
Her secret might, Inscrutable and
vast.
Propels the world’s and paints
the violet,
Creates the mind of man and In
sect’s wing;
With her. as Time, there Is no
first or last;
The sovereign signet of her seal
is set,
With equal care on chrysalis and
king.
To Quit 8anto Domingo.
From the Des Moines Capital.
Announcement Is made through the
American State department that the
American marines are to be with
drawn from Santo Domingo on July 1.
At that time the republic of Santo
Domingo will be turned over to rely
upon her own strength for existence.
The United States has been occupy
ing Santo Domingo for a few years
In order to stop murder and to en
force the laws. The United States has
done this with marines. The marlnse
as a rule are young men who are
quick to think and quick to act. The
American marines have worked under
strict instructions In regard to their
conduot.
In one paragraph of General Dee’s
Instructions we find these words:
"Never start a disturbance with the
Dominicans. If you want to fight put
on the gloves'and start training for
the next boxing meet; you will meet
any number of men right here In your
own camp who will give a more excit
ing scrap than Dominicans will, and
you can win a boxing belt Instead of
bread and water. Carefully avoid any
kind of trouble. Don’t start an argu
ment with a Dominican because you
don’t like the way he looks at you.
Avoid trouble with them."
Tenacity of Church Ties.
From the Pittsburgh Gazette-Times.
In the case of those in many
branches of the Protestant Church
who are In conflict with the letter of
the creeds there appears to be a
strange reluctance to depart and
seek a communion wherein there
would be no question of one's ortho
doxy. Those who hold views at vari
ance with the historic doctrines of
their denominations cling tr> the con
nection with astonishing tenacity
considering that they are out of har
mony with the creeds as ordinarily
interpreted. The situation impresses
that association and historic names
forge bonds which few care to break.
They prefer trying to convert the
opposition to their views rather than
seek association in a more liberal
environment wherein such beliefs Os
they may hold might be regarded a*
conservative.
Pullman Car Nama.
From the Brooklyn Daily Eagle.
The Pioneer was the first. Names
of women were used, then flowers,
birds, cities, towns, rivers, lakes,
soldiers, poets, battlefields and
camps. The latest names have been
taken from ancient history—Anti
phon, Berosus, Hippocrates, Demos
thenes, Diogenes, Hesold and Simon
ides—and negro port,*"* have no use
for them, because they have diffi
culty in pronouncing them.
For many years it was believed
that Miss Florence Pullman, daugh
ter of the founder of the Pullman
Company, received II, $50 or 1100
for each car she named. One sol
emn guese quoted her salary at
$30,000 a year, but the truth is she
named onlv a few cars and re
ceived no compensation.
Burled Tin Disintegrates.
From tha Ohio State Journal.
Historians know that tin was used
by those who lived in the old world
several centuries ago, yet tin vessels
are rarely found in the careful search
of the ruins there and the chemists
have found that tin does not rust,
but when buried it has chemical prop
erties that j>-ovide a decay, R change
that transfo ms its crystalline struc
ture. . .
The exact nature cf the change is
not clearly understood, but when the
change has taken place there remains
not tin but a fine gray powder that is
lost as the crarchers dig In the ruins,
and, strange to the ohemists, the
change, onco started, appears to be
Infectious bo'ng transmitted from one
piece of tin to another until all dis
appear. __

Even Moderate Drinkers of 2.75
Per Cent. Booze Poor Insurance Risks
From the Christian Science Monitor.
Dr. Eugene Lyman Fisk, medical director of the Life Ex
tension Institute of New York, added a contribution of no little
value to the cause of prohibition by his address in Toronto before
the fifty-first annual Conference of Social Work. This is particu
larly the case because the phase of the situation which he represent
ed, the relation of alcohol to life insurance, has been the subject of
considerable controversy, apparently authoritative opinions being
available which claim that moderate drinkers of alcoholic beverag
es live longer than' total abstainers. This notion, Dr. Fisk declar
ed unequivocally, “is not borne out by the weight of scientific evi
dence," and he amplified this statement by asserting, “There is a
higher death rate among drinkers, and the mortality rate increases
with the rate of consumption of alcohol."
Regarding the recent widely circulated reports along this line,
moreover, Dr. Fisk vouchsafed the illuminating explanation that
they are based upon an imposing mass of statistical formulae ap
plied to meager and extremely questionable data. “The entire
group study," he urged, “comprised about 2000, among which were
217 male total abstainers and 26 female heavy drinkers," and he
added: “There was no warrant for constructing life tables out of
such heterogenous death records and comparing them with the
comprehensive records of life insurance companies concerning peo
ple who had been medically examined as to their original condi
tion of health."
Dr. Fisk also called favorable attention to the investigation re
cently conducted by Dr. Walter R. Miles at the Carnegie Institute of
Washington into the alleged innocuousness of light wines and beer.
This investigation, he showed, proves all such statements to be
“misleading," and demonstrates beyond question that there is no
longer room for doubt in reference to the toxie action of alcoholic
bevsrages as weak as 2.75 per cent by weight.
The specific results, in the direction under discussion, which Dr.
Fisk told the delegates had been established by one of the most re
cent studies of life insurance risks, covering 286,000 lives, are the
following:
Increased death rate amon| moderate, occasional users of alcohol, It
per cent.
Increased mortality among dally users of beer, St per cent.
Increased mortality among dally users of spirits, 66 per cent.
These percentages represent the excess mortality as compared to
that among total abstainers. In summing up his arguments, Dr.
Fisk, simply stated that there is no reason to doubt the teMimony
of the laboratory and life insurance experience that the so-called
moderate use of alcohol shorten human life.
TO QET OUT OF DEBT
Elizabeth Town*.
The only way to get out of debt
U to quit making debts. Live any
old way, but don’t make another
debt. In no time you will find
yourself not only living on a
cash basis, but you will find
money beginning to pile up with
which you can gradually reduce
the old debts. But the only way
to begin It Is to immediately be
gin to live on a cash basis—pay
cash for everything or go without.
Of course, that does not mean ac
tual cash—If you order a new suit,
you naturally do not pay for the
new suit until the bill comes In.
But your cash must be paid when
the bill comes In. Not a minute
later.
Legends in the Making.
From the Philadelphia Bulletin.
Myths and legends which may be
come popular beliefs in time are born
from such reports as the one sent
from a town called Cellompton. In
Devonshire, England. A man of the
place is said to have a mummified
Egyptian hawk of some Incredible
age, which bleeds when war Is about
to break out and ceases to bleed
when the war draws to an end.
On the face of It the yarn is*pf>
posterous. There may be a man of
the name given In the Devonshire
I
town, and ha may posses a mummi
fied hawk. That Is all there can be
to the tale. But If told often enough,
the ridiculous yarn would come to
be bellved by many people, and the
believers would not all be stupid or
Ignorant.
The genesis of the bleeding hawk
buncombe could probably be traced
to some spoofing person who had It
suggested to him by the current
Interest In things Egyptian. Devon
Is the home of one of England's most
cherished superstitions. Thousands
ef people In England probably truly
believe in Drake's drum. The drum
Is said to have been the war drum
of that fine old sailor and buccaneer,
Sir Francis Drake. The legend Is
that when England Is threatened
by sea, the drum of Sir Francis
beats the call to arms.
No one would object to a plctur
espue superstition If it did not often
cause uneasiness In the minds ol
many persons who take Its prophetic
utterances literally. The so-called
prophecy of Mother Shipton Is a
case In point. This prophecy Is in
rhyme, and was supposed to have
been written some three hundred
years ago, when no living person
could possibly have even Imagined
some of the things which the rhyme
said would come to pass.
A legend v7ry often Is only a yarn
dignified by years.
