Are you one of the limited number who are wise enough to realize their own imperfections? Have you mounted sufficiently high upon the ladder of intelligence to crave the privilege of ascending to even great- er height? GO TO CHURCH SUN- DAY. You will not be the only brainy man or woman in that assem- blage. You will not even be the only one who is conscientiously en- deavoring to stimulate the body, the mind, and the soul. The preacher knows a few things—it is possible he may even know as much as you— - for his store of knowledge is ex- tracted from the Great Book, the fountain of all wisdom. In any event, his thoughts will touch upon certain viewpoints which perchance may flow in different channels from your own, and therein lies the op- portunity for adding to the sagacity and wisdom which lifts you to emin- ence in the world of men. Every normal brain radiates knowledge of some kind or other, and the brain of the minister is trained to impart that knowledge to others. There is much yet in this world for us to learn, and still more of the greater and longer life to come. Go to church ‘Sunday, where it is free for the accepting. You will be in Zood company, and among friends. The hand of welcome beckons,_and the door stands ajar with no sentry to bar your entrance. Making the Fourth Really Patriotic. Emancipated from the firecracker L and the tey pistol, the Fourth of July has become safe and sane. But the banishment of noise and its dan- gerous concomitants was a negative reform that left something to be de- sired. It was a question whether patriotism had not also become mute, says the Minneapolis Journal. Noise after all is expressive; it is a vent for the feelings. The en- thusiasm of youth finds in the emis- sien of noise the readiest method of making itself known and contagious: So the danger was that, along with safety and sanity, Independence Day would also acquire indifference and unpatriotism. At this juncture, however, comes a suggestion that has caught the popular fancy the country over, not only because it gives the day a new patriotic significance, but also be- cause it tends, in these anxious days, to draw all Americans into closer sympathy. This suggestion is that on the Fourth of July the newest Americans amongst 'us, these that have within the year taken the oath of allegiance as-naturalized citizens, be welcomed into. the nation with special and ap- propriate ceremony. Many Ameri- can-cities -have taken up this move- ment. Those from other lands who have come here to dwell and have imbibed the:American spirit and the American principles, until they have fitted ‘themselves to become citizens; will thus gain a better understanding’ of’ ‘what -American - citizenship really means. Not only that, but the others of us who are so fortunate as to have been born'Americans, or to have be- come: Americans by naturalization, will by participation.in’ these cere- monies -gain better understanding ourselves. American. citizenship is a fine and precious thing: Let us cherish . it and study it and understand it, that At -may- become- finer. yet and - still more precious, ¥ EDITORIAL EXPLOSIONS % HKHKK KK KKK KK KKK KK If you yearn to waste a few hours time, you might endeavor to think of one valid argument in favor -of poor highways.—Princeton Union. o S g The road drag is a mighty im- portant spoke in the wheel of prog- ress. This has already been demon- strated. A road drag is to the com- munity what a cow is to the farm.— Gonvick Banner. et Dairying gives the best returns per acre of any form of farming, and maintains the fertility of the soil at the same time at the highest pitch without commercial fertilizers. The combination of cows and clover, the bacon hog and the fllock of chickens, with potatoes and cabbage for a commercial crop, is the sure way to farm prosperity of the highest type, the combination for which Itasca county is peculiarly fitted. And those who are practicing this combination of dairying with farming in Itasca county are proving successful.— Northern Minnesota. o That man Hammond, perhaps we should say Governor Hammond, is certainly level-headed on road mat- ters. At the Coleraine meeting last week he is reported as saying: “A network of good highways must be planned and built, os that the settler can reach his market place easily, otherwise the work of reclamation would be for nothing. These roads should be devised to allow the man engaged in building up the country to reach his nearest town where he can dispose of his goods. They should not be great avenues between towns, but highways from towns to the farm.” Keep right on talking in that strain, governor. You are on the right track.—Princeton Union. SAYS MEN ARE CLEANER POLITICAL FIGHTERS THAN WOMEN Warren, Ill., June 26.—“Men are cleaner political fighters than women are; women are more jealous than men; women are hastier in their judgment than men; women are more revengeful than men; women are less forgiving than men; women are more vindictive than men.” No; you’re dead wrong. That isn’t propaganda sent out by the National Association Opposed to. Woman Suff- rage. Those rather biting observa- tions came today from no less a per- sonage than the first woman mayor or mayoress the state of Illinois ever produced, and a life-long fighter for suffrage for women. That word ‘‘personage” was care- fully chosen. Mrs. A. R. Canfield, mayoress of Warren, is one of those things. TUnless you knew what she has accomplished here, and what she says she’s going to accomplish, and that she is the mayor, you'd never think it of her. She’s about the most lovable, snuggling kind of grand- mothery looking old lady you’d want to meet. She’s 75 and brags about it. Everyone calls her ‘“the Good Grandmother”’—and she brags about that, justifiably. Nobody actually took Mrs. Can- field’s candidacy seriously, exgept herself. There were, naturally, a majority of the voters who wanted to see her elected. But they didn’t know they were in the majority un- til the count of votes sent. “the Good Grandmother” to the mayor’s chair, for which Mrs. Canfield most of the time substitutes a comfortable rocker. Then when her election was certain the vicious elements cheered. They cheered too soon. Here are some of the things Mrs. Canfield has stopped: Suggestive and sensational movies; improperly conducted dances; park spooning, and to a great extent auto- mobile speeding through Warren. She has also carried the fighting to liquor sellers until they're out of breath and helping her to stop the sale of liquor to already intoxicatéd men. Here are some of the things she is going to give Warren: Publicly superintended dancing halls; public readings for young and old; a centrally established hall to be a meeting place and house of enter- tainment for everyone. ‘“‘Some of the women who opposed my election,” said Mrs. Canfield, “‘used weapons I never supposed they possessed. They actually accused me of drinking. They said I used opium. The astounding part of it was that some of these women were leaders in the Y. M. C. A. movement. “Many opposed me because I be- lieve in young folks dancing. The evil seen in the modern dances is not in the steps or movements, but in the minds of the dancers. Sur- round them with proper environment and the dancers won’t think evil. “I am firmly convinced that Chi- cago some day in the near future will have a woman mayor. When that comes, Chicago will have the best municipal government in the ‘world.” Cheap and Reliable. Life Insurance.

Government Experts, A special bulletin on revenues, ex- penditures.and public propertiés-of mu- nicipalities having a population: of 2,500 and’ over, relating to the fiscal year 1913, compiled under the supervision of the ‘bureat of the' census, department of commerce, shows, for the United States as a whole, munieipal’ recelpts of $2,139,244,605, - municipal expendi- tures of $2,139,435,611 and a total value of ‘municipal - properties. amounting to $4,387,047,924, As might be expected, the greatest municipal receipts and expenditures were those of New York city, $625,- 432,000 and $623,197,000, respectively; Chieago -stood second, with $109,827,- 000 and $110,922,000, respectively, and Philadelphia was third, with $63,741, 000 and $65,933,000, respectively. To obtain a true idea of the relative cost of conducting municipal business in different cities the comparison must be made on the basis of total and per capita ‘“revenue receipts” and “gov- ernmental cost payments.” Revenue receipts comprise the amounts receiv- ed for the use of municipalities. They are derived from taxes, special-assess- like, license charges, fines and for- feits, interest and rents, subventions and grants from the federal, state or county governments, donations and gifts from all sources, fees and charges for services performed, earnings of public service enterprises, etc. Gov- ernmental cost payments are made up of ordinary running expenses, ex- penses of public service enterprises, in- terest and outlays, not offset by re- ceipts, for permanént improvements. The total revenue receipts and total government cost payments of munici- palities of 2,500 and over throughout the United States in 1913 were $1,108,- 197,000 and $1,246,637,000, respective- ly, and the corresponding per capita figures were $24.26 and $27.29, re- spectively. The general tendency of municipalities to °live -beyond their means is indicated by the difference of over $138,000,000, or more than $3 per capita, between their revenue receipts and their governmental cost payments. In fact, in only seven states—New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Indiana, 11li- nois, South Dakota, Utah and Wy- oming—and the District of Columbia were the revenue receipts of the mu- nicipalities, taken as a group in each state, in excess of thelr governmental cost payments. A new spirit level indicates in terms of inches or fractions of inches to the foot the deviation of a surface from the horizontal or perpendicular. Afflicted With Stomach Trouble. “I was a vietim of stomach trouble for over two years, and although 1 doctored continually during this time and ‘spent many dollars - for medicine and doctor’s bills, nothing did me any good until I began taking Chamberlain’s Tablets,” writes Mrs. Charles E. Hann, Shortsville, N. Y. “These tablets helped me at once, they rid me of that dull, heavy feel- ing after eating, strengthened my di- gestion, and cured me of constipa- tion.”.
