* j ' Monkey in Pulpit. More Defense, Less Talk. “Redskins Coming." Mrs. Kelly's Cows. By ARTHUR BRISBANE v—' The Rev. Mr. O’Farrell will preach at the First Baptist church in Butte, Mont., taking a live mon key into the pulpit with him. The reverend gentleman will say that if man came from any lower ani mal it was “from the ass, rather than from the monkey.” His text will be “The soul that’s in it.” That’s interesting, let’s hope the monkey will behave. Sensational pulpit methods are not to be criticized by laymen who know little, and they are not new. Henry Ward Beecher once sold a slave girl at auction in his Brook lyn church, using that good-look ing mulatto grl as a text against slavery. It was an effective ser mon. More useful than a monkey in the pulpit might be some under fed child from a mill. Japanese patriots suggest "drill day” to offset “defense day” in the United States. The Japanese may be relied upon to keep themselves fit. A photograph, showing fifty sailors from a Japanese battleship, ► swimming in regular formation a distance of 20 miles, an officer swimming ahead of them, shows that our little brown friends keep in training. Here we talk a great deal about defense, but don’t seem to do much in the way of building flying ma chines. England is completing a "super dreadnaught of the air,” driven by one huge engine of 1,000 horse power. European manufacturers are mnking for Japan six gigantic ma chines with wings a hundred feet wide, bigger even than the English super-dreadnaughts. Here, like children playing at War, we have a defense day. It’s about time to have some thing to represent real defense. The country may need it. “Redskins in Canada are hos tile.” The Kitwanghi tribe in British Columbia threatens white settlements. “You read and pass on.” It doesn’t mean much now. Machine guns, a few well organ ized fighting men of British Co lumbia will attend to that situa tion. “Redskins on the warpath meant something else in the last century, when the wife of James Brisbane in Batavia, N. Y., ar ranged with General Scott to pro Hk)n'ide food for his soldiers if he ^^would establish his camp on her place—which is now a park around the local city hall—to protect her young children. This was in 1812—It’s different fn 1924. _ Dairy farms are closing down, and that is easily understood. Take the case of Mrs. Kelly, who oper ates a dairy farm in the Catskills, owned by this writer. She pays no rent. That would be out of the l question. The landlord pays the tnxes and makes the repairs. He also supplies, free of charge, hav from another farm to help through the winter. Mrs. Kelly gets three cents a quart for her milk after she has carted it down the long hills to Flesichmann’s. People in the city pay fifteen cents a quart and more. Is there perhaps something the matter with our civilized methods of distribu i' tion? John D. Rockefeller, jr., owns a fine place in F lorida. His father, who already had a place there, has bought another place to be nearer his son. .... How many people with big for tunes, how many more with moder ate incomes, will move into Florida and California? Nobody can guess what the populations of those States will be. Heat is life. The beauty of our wonderful warm climate* i* that the man with a little car, a big family and a moderate income, can be just a* happy and long lived as hia fellow American, with the private car and the income run ning into millions. The next war will not be dull. One thousand kinds of poison gas have been made for use in the next war. Scientists say there is “nothing much in the bugaboo of using microbes in war.” The plan to drop bubonic plague into the water supply from flying machines won’t work, it seems. In the early days, when war came, the inhabitants of the coun try ran to the cities for protection. Now flying machines with gases and high-powered explosives will concentrate above cities, and their populations will pour out into the country, sleeping in the open, beg ging farmers for food—anything to escape the concentrated “hell fire” coming down from the sky. Violent red radicals in France, to whon\ Herriot, the socialist, seems a reactionary, are excited about “United States imperialism.” If it is imperialism to lend our friends in France four or five thousand millions of dollars with out requesting payment of prin cipal or interest, and if it is im perialism for American financiers to plan a comfortable rakeoff by selling German bonds in the United States, then this country is im perialistic, otherwise not.

When I went upstairs I found Mol lie Fawcett eating breakfast In the kitchen, with Lillian bustling around —"fussing” would be a better word. Domesticity is not Lillian's strongest point, to put it mildly, and while she occasionally has flashes of what her friends term culinary genius, there is nothing that so quickly shatters the poise which is her strongest characteristic than unexpected cook ing or sewing thrust upon her. "Are those eggs all right?” she was asking Mollie, as I entered, and In her voice there was the sharp anx iety of the hostess unaccumstomed to cooking or serving. "They are delicious,” Mollie an swered deferentially, and into her cheeks crept an embarrassed flush at the anomaly of Lillian serving her. “But please let me wait upon my self. I hate to—” "You may, now,” Lillian assured her, "for everything is right at your hand. How long before the car will be here?” She turned to me. "Fifteen minutes,” I returned la conically. "You see, you have plenty of time,” Lillian said to Mollie, as we went out of the door which, closed behind us at a sign from my friend. She explained the gesture when we were back in the living room. “Early as it is, the redoubtable Petey has flown the coop,” she said. "He and his friends went out the back way before daylight, Mrs. Marks tells me, but you never can tell when he will appear In the hall, so it is as well to keep the door closed. I don't want him to know that Mollie is here.” I looked around the room curi ously, for I saw no sign of Mamie. Lillian answered my look. "X have gone back to my first In tention.” she said smiling. "I thought I would send Mamie out with you, but I find I had better keep her here for a few days. Of course, I know how terribly disappointed you are,” she finished with a gibing lit tle smile. "Oh, utterly disconsolate,” I gibed back. "But for your sake, dear one, I'll try to bear up.” "Palm Your Nerves.” "I'm sure you'll succeed,” she com mented dryly,” and then she pulled me down beside her on the daven port, restored now to its proper func tion. ait flown ana caim yuur nrircs, she admonished. "Do they appear ruffled?" I In quired, a bit piqued. "Nary a crinkle,” ahe replied promptly, "but I know you. and that you're all on edge inside. Now there isn't a thing for you to worry over, or even to do, gave to entertain Mollie Fawcett as best you can un til I give you the word to ship her back here. iShe probably will be so delighted with the chance to roam the farm that she won’t need any entertaining, but I'd advise you to get acquainted with her as much as you can." Was there a subtle reservation In Lillian's tone? I was sure of It, and of Its Interpretation. Because of Dicky's openly ex pressed admiration for Mollie Faw cett, and the secret of the midnight attack upon Dicky which she shared, and of which I never had received an explanation, she wished me to study Mollie Fawcett, and thus he prepared to deal with any problem in which the girl might be a factor.. Robert Savarin's letter. "I shall take your advice,” I re turned, looking at her steadily. I think she knew that I meant thus to tell her I comprehended her lov ing thought, for she laid her hand for a second on mine with one of her rare brief caresses, then took It away, and abruptly closed that con versational gate and opened another. ”1 suppose Harry was wild at him self,'" she chuckled. "Ht appeared a trifle chngrlned.” T returned, “but he soon recovered. He offered to drive me out of the pity. but 1 told him you had arranged foi the trip.” "Tes, I have," she assented. "A car with two men ought to be here any minute now. One will drive you out, the other will follow In his car to take your driver back when you are ready to take the wheel." "I feel like a helpless Idiot," I said vehemently, "being driven eround like that.” “Tou're talking like one. now," Lillian retorted. "Tou're doing your full share, take my word for It, but you won't be It you gum up the gnme with ridiculous repining*. I believe either the driver 1 expected or Harry has Just drawn up to the curb.” She walked swiftly to the window, and put her head out of it. "They're both here," she said. "Now I'll get Mollie while you gather your things together. 1 wnnt you out of here Inside of five minutes." She walked swiftly from the room. As she closed the door, I saw a piece of folded paper on the floor, patently a letter that had fallen from her dress. I crossed to pick It up, that I might give It back to her, and saw at once by the chtrography that It waa a letter from Robert Savarln. In ail* probability the one which she had thrust unopened into her bodice whefl Harry t'nderwood and I came upon her at the mall box. It W'BS without Its envelope now. nnd upon the surface of the paper were several spots which I did not need to be told were the marks of tears. Women Voter* Follow Men.

"The human machine gets life pow er from the brain, from which it Is dispatched through the spinal cord over the nervous system to every cell in the body.

Chiropractic adjustments re move this pressure and the power gets through." “FUN-FUL” PLAY GOODS A l BEST Victor H. Roos, "The Cycle Man," 2701-7 Leavenworth street, has taken over the entire line of "Fun Ful” playground equipment. This equip ment has met with great popularity. Most playgrounds in the largest cities are using it exclusively. With the addition of this line, Roos will now have the most complete store in Oma ha carrying a complete line of wheel goods and play equipment for chil dren. Every child should have play equipment in his yard, says Roos. It keeps them home and in a sturdy, healthy condition.

RUST EATS IRON NOT PAINTED "Rust acts on the same principle as cancer,” says Fred Parks, pro prietor the Fred Parks Paint store, 4708 South Twenty-fourth street. Rust eats Into iron, tin and galvan ized iron as the cancer does to the flesh. Home owners should give special attention to the tlnwork, gutters and downspouts on the house. Rust will soon eat through unless painted twice a year with a good paint and gutter cement. Parks will gladly give advice on painting. A free sample book can be had by writing.
