Marshall, Editor and Prop, ss $1.50 dDieem Aimmes SUBSCRIPTION Per Tear in Advance POINTS OF VIEW CALL FOR CODE OF GOLDEN RULE It occurs to me, said George B. Cautious, at the weekly meeting of the Rowanis club, that we need some sort of a national code or agreement fixing more definite regulations for individual points of view. There is an old expression that circumstances alter cases. It might have been broadened to include the observation that circumstances alter points of view, and that what a man thinks and feels one moment may be wholly foreign to his mental reactions the next Take, for example, the man who drives his car downtown. All the way down, and while he is going through the business district, he is motor minded. He toots his horn for pedestrians to get out of the way and fumes if the sign changes sooner than he expected. But the moment he parks his car and begins to walk his point of view changes, and he becomes pedestrian minded. He is severely critical of motorists who do exactly what he did a few minutes before. Now then, it seem to me that there ought to be a middle ground somewhere. Such persons and that means all of us should be more tolerant of pedestrians when they are driving, and inclined to be broader minded when they are walking. I know a citizen who becomes furious when he finds that a lawn sprinkler is throwing water where he has to pass. But when he reaches his own home he is likely, in season, to start the sprinkler going, and the spray causes pedestrians to go into the street to avoid a wetting. I know men who permit their shrubbery to cover most of the sidewalk, and who declare that the shrubbery of other citizens should be torn out by the roots. Every day we see men and women do things they do not want others to do. It is proper for them, it seems, to take up enough room in a street car for two persons. If they see somebody else do it they declare that something should be done about It. Maybe the Golden Rule would be code enough for all of us, but we seem to be oif the golden standard, and I have mentioned the matter here today in the hope that some of you gentlemen might suggest a way out of our difficulties.

The governor of his state offers Neal the appointment of senator in the United State senate. At Washington, a junior senators wife, Anne finds her troubles begin with the selection of a home. CHAPTER IX Continued 21 Another caller was coming up the steps, and Anne saw, with relief, that the new visitor was of a different type was indeed herself timid and ill at ease, in spite of her pretty clothes and air of unmistakable good breeding But this relief was Madame Estavi, the wife of the third secretary of the Peruvian embassy, was herself a newcomer embarking on her first round of calls. She accepted the place by the fire so recently vacated, and sat holding herself very erect, with painful pauses, which Anne did not know how to fill in, between her civil, stilted little sentences. In the midst of one of these pauses, a fearful shriek rent the air; and an Instant later. Nancy, with Junior in. hot pursuit, tore wildly into the room, tripped over the rug, and fell sprawling on the floor between the two ladies. , The astonished caller rose, looking very much startled. Im dreadfully sorry, Anne said wretchedly; Really, they dont often act like this. Junior, go upstairs and wash that that whatever it is off your face and hands. And stay there until I send for you. Please. Madame Estavi But Madame Estavi had quietly and effectively vanished, and there were more callers coming up the steps. Before the riotous and untidy children could be eliminated, these callers were upon Anne. The dreadful afternoon wore on Anne, nervously keeping her eyes from the clock, was nevertheless aware that Neal would be expecting her, would be waiting for her, and yet she could not escape and go to him. At last the telephone rang sharply. Neal, dear, she whispered Into the transmitter, I cant come for you. Im sorry. No, I cant speak any louder there are people here, theyll hear me. No, I cant explain. No, Pm not sick No, the children arent either. She returned to the drawing room certain that she had been overheard Well, that was bad enough, but at least It meant that these intruding stran gers would go would leave her In peace. But it did not. Sensing that something was amiss, and eager to know what it was, they lingered to short-live- To relieve the soreness and dryness and hasten the return of skin comfort MesrndL WNU W 4 d. find out Neal let himself in with his latch key, banging the door after him, and shouted to her from the hall Why didnt you tell me you were going to have company? he roared. I waited, and waited . . Neither of them ever referred again He strode into the little parlor, halted, and became dumb. Introductions were mum bled, but afterwards the silence deep ened. One by one, disappointed, the to the next few minutes. callers departed. As the last one vanished from sight and hearing, Anne turned on her husband with a rage such as he had seldom seen her display. Dont you ever dare speak to me that way again she cried. "You was in some ought to have realized difficulty and helped me out instead of making things ten times worse than they were already ! You ought to have known that senators wives have to re ceive on Thursdays and make bun dreds and thousands of calls them selves other days, dropping little dogeared cards from one end of Washington to the other. Tomorrow Im going to get all this straightened out by some one who does know and will tell me all about it Ill find out what Ive got to do, and do it well. 1 1 Why, Anne, said Neal gently, Pm awfully sorry. I didnt think . . His own annoyance had vanished into thin air at the sight of her distress, which he did not minimize. He spoke with unaccustomed and unexpected tenderness. Darling, its all right Youll get the hang of all this in no time. Anne dont cry. nine oclock the next morning, Anne called up the Vice Presidents house, and asked for Mrs. HammeL A smooth purring voice that sounded somehow, in spite of its smoothness. a3 if it might, upon occasion, grow dreadfully hard, answered. Miss Butters speaking. This is Mrs. Neal Conrad, Senator . Conrads wife. I asked for Mrs. At Ham-mel- Oh but you see Mrs. Hamme) never goes to the telephone, Mrs. Con rad. Couldnt you give me the me sage? I am her secretary, you know I take all her messnges. Every one who wishes to get in touch with Mrs. Hammel does so through me. Again reproved, again convicted of Ignorance I Anne felt herself flushing, alone in the little dark entry where her telephone bung. But she gritted her teeth. wonder if she would let me come and see her? Today?" Today? Really. Mrs. Conrad, 1 doubt whether that would be possible. Mrs. Hammel would be delighted to ... fore. I gave Mrs. Oh. Mrs. Conrad Hammel your message, and she will be pleased to see you at eleven. She is of course very much pressed, very much occupied., so I am sure you will understand and make your call brief. At eleven then It was Miss Butters, Anne said to herself as she buttoned on her little blue taillenr and lammed her small perky blue hat down over her curls, who made up the last part of that message. Mrs. Hammel never said it at all If she hadnt meant to he kind, she wouldnt haVe said shed see me. Anne was right. Mrs. Hammel did mean to be kind. She looked to the bewildered newcomer like a comfortable, middle-age- d angel, her wings concealed by her perfect Worth gown of gray crepe de chine, but her halo almost distinguishable above the smooth ripples of her permanent wave. There was something very homey about her, in spite of the fact that she might ... 1 1 . Hospitals and doctors have always used liquid laxatives. And the public is fast returning to laxatives in liquid form. Do you know the reasons? The dose of a liquid laxative can be measured. The action can be controlled. It forms no habit; you need not take a double dose a day or two later. Nor will a mild liquid laxative irritate the kidneys. The right liquid laxative brings a perfect movement, and there is no discomfort at the. time, or after. The wrong cathartic may keep you constipated as long as you keep on using it And the habitual use of irritating salts, or of powerful drugs in the highly concentrated form of pills and tablets may prove injurious. A week with a properly prepared liquid laxative like Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin will tell you a lot. A few weeks time, and your bowels can be as regular as clockwork. Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is an approved liquid laxative which all druggists keep ready for use.lt makes an ideal family laxative; effective for all ages, and may be given the youngest child. Member N. R. A. I For Hard Coughs or Colds That Worry You Creomulsion is made to give supreme help for coughs or colds. It combines 7 helps in one the best helps known to science. It is for quick relief, for safety. But careful people, more and more, use it for every cough that starts. No one knows where a cough may lead. No one can tell which factor will do most. That depends on the type of cold. Creomulsion costs a little more than lesser helps. But it means the utmost help. And it costs you nothing if it fails to bring the quick relief you seek. Yo,ur druggist guarantees it. Use it for safetys sake. (adv.) NASAL - Make Their Homes on Floating Islands Nearly 13,000 feet high, Lake Titicaca not only is famed for its nat ural and historical values, but also because it is the home of the Huros. a strange race of Indians living on floating islands. The Islands are built of matted aquatic growths and anchored by bam boo poles driven Into the lake bed. The material employed is rattan grass, known to the Indians as totora. which Is woven into a dense matting suffl clently strong and buoyant to support the weight of the Indian huts. To maintain the islands in a seaworthy condition, the Indian children are trained in the art of pre had had fewer educational opportunities than herself, from the shabby textbooks which she had taken away with her from the mountain school There were other paragraphs after that, describing the rise In the Hammel fortunes, both political and financial But they did Qot matter so much. What mattered was that Mrs. Hammel had once been a little country school teacher, like Anne herself, had suffered far more in her bridal days, and she had married a man who possessed far fewer advantages, of every kind, than Neal And she had won through. But she must have had to learn, too; and perhaps, perhaps, she remembered how bitterly hard that learning was. The telephone rang. Miss Butters was speaking again, her voice even smoother and more purring than be- have, served as the personification of What the Well Dressed Woman (with unlimited means) Will Wear; she almost patted Annes hand as she shook it; and an uncanny degree of intelligence shone from the beams of her kindly eyes.

Lace PRECIOUS MANUSCRIPT The first mention we have of the Vatican manuscript is in a catalogue of the Vatican library toward the close of the Fifteenth century, but at that time no one seems to have realized its great Importance. Early in the Nineteenth century it mysteriously turned up in Paris, but it was later returned to the Vatican, where it still is. It is now regarded as one of the most trustworthy witnesses to the original text of the New Testament, and apparently dates from about the middle of the Fourth century being thus a contemporary of the Sinaitic manuscript. The Vatican manuscript is referred to by the letter B. Originally it contained the whole Bible In Greek, but the leaves containing Timothy, Titus, Revelation, and part of Hebrews, are now lost Exchange. serving what in most cases is home for life. During the entire day the children are employed, in cutting and collecting the totora and weaving it in many layers on the founda tlon already existing. They are also taught to build the tight totora canoes so familiar to those who travel on Lake Titicaca. The Indians spend their time in hunting and fishing for the lake teems with fish of such delicate flavor that they were one of the most highly prized courses ol the Incas tabla The lives of the Huros are passed on their floating islands, but the abi) ity to keep them floating largely de pends on a knowledge of meteorology which has become an inherited sense They can tell almost to the minute when a storm lurking on the crest of the Andes will burst over the lake, and they can predict with the same certainty whether a year will be wet or dry. With this knowledge they strengthen their Island homes against the com: ing of the wet years, and with the approach of storms they anchor more firmly their fragile abode. Reforms and Progress Reforms are essential to progress, said HI Ho. the sage of Chinatown. They must be attained by learning not only what is possible, but what is impossible.
