This does not mean that he is to shut himself within four walls, and bend his body and mind oyer books, Men thought before books were written, and some of the greatest thinkers never entered what we call_a library. Nature, society, life, present perpetual subjects for thought. And the man who collects, concentrates, employs his facultiés on uny of these subjects for the purpose of getting the truth, is a student, a thinker, a philosopher, and is rising to the su- preme eminence of man, for as William Ellery Channing has observed, “Thought, intelligence, is the dignity of man and no man is rising but in proportion as he is learning to think clearly and forcibly.” It is time we should cease to limit to professed scholars the titles of thinkers, philosophers. Whoever seeks truth with an earnest mind, no matter how, belongs to the school of in- tellectual men. In a loose sense of the word all men may be said to think; that is a succession of ideas, notions, passes through their minds ‘trom morning to night. But in so far as this succession is passive, indirected, or governed only by acci- dent and outward impulse, it has no more claim to dignity than the experience of the lower animals, who receive, with like pas- siveness, sensations from abroad through their waking hours. Such thought, if thought it may be called, having no aim, is as useless as the vision of an eye which rests on nothing. Thought, as defined by Channing, is “Energy of the In- tellect.” In thought, the mind not only receives impressions or suggestions from without ér within, but reacts on them, col- lects its attention, concentrates its forces upon them, breaks them up and analyzes them. Surely this universe-in which we live was intended to stir up such thought as has been de- scribed, It is full of difficulty and mystery. Every object, even the simplest in nature and society, every event of life, is made up of various elements subtly bound together, so that, to understand anything, we must re- duce it from its complexity to its parts and principles, and examine their relations to one another. e Era of Prosperity Heury Vord believes the United States is entering a per iod of prosperity that will endure for “a hundred years,” ‘The members of the American Bankers association in session in At- Jantée City, made no long-term predictions. Nevertheless, these men, who represent more than 22,000 of the 30,000 banks haying national or state charters, were convinced that business is good now and is going to be even better in the future. Bankers are proyerbially cautious, so they limit their predictions to the forecast that this betterment will last for at least six months, There is ample reason. The world trade of the United States in the last six months was the greatest since 1920, and the balance of trade igs favorable. Cotton and corn, the two crops that have the greatest influence on business confidence, are ample this year. A deep cut in taxes is expected. Money is available for development and the foreign situation has been gradually clearing up for years. ’ The lessons of 1921 are too fresh in the memory for there to be much danger of oyer-confidence. American business and industry are moying toward the close of one good year in the confident expectation, of another. Ed ‘Two Millions a Day The sugar bill of the American people is over two million dollars a day. This figure is based on the present low price at which sugar is selling. During most of the time in recent years the cost of satisfying the national sweet tooth has been higher than this. While the United States, including territories of Hawaii, Porto Rico and the Philippines, ranks third among the nations of the world in the extent of its sugar production. the quantity of sugar supplied by the home industry satisfies only about half the country’s requirements and nearly $ 000 a day is expended for foreign grown sugar. As most of the imported sugar comes from Cuba the bulk of this sum goes to that country and the production of sugar for the United States market is the basis of the greater part of Cuba’s trade and industry. F; 3 Figures recently published in Cuba show that in the twen- ty-three years since the reciprocity treaty between the United States and Cuba extended a tariff protection of 20 per cent to Cuban sugar imported to this country Cuba has sold to the United States $4,205,341,000 worth of products and that sugar formed oyer 80 per cent of this huge total. During this period the balance of trade in Cuba’s favor has been $1,482,493,000. Same Pabulum The young La¥ollette is tramping the well-beaten path way of the elder La¥ollette. When he pulls sych ancient bull as the following: “The people of Wisconsin have re-enlisted in the struggle to wrest control of government from the special interests entrenched at Washington.” He, may be feeding the people of Wisconsin the kind of pap that is satisfying to their erayings for political sustenance, but he is not kidding any: body outside of that state with any such bunk. “Phe “special interests” that control the government at Washington are composed of such men as Calvin Coolidge, for instance, who has more than vindicated the confidence of the largest’ percentage of yoters of the nation ever eexpressed for a presidertial candidate of any party. A nationwide con- ‘fidence, compared with the confidence of a single state, the people of which, who have been fed on nothing else than similar fodder for twenty-five years by the elder LaFollette, to that which the junior LaFollette contitnues to feed them. If the people of Wisconsin like it they are welcome to it; but at the same time they are gluttons for bushwa, Old Fashioned Excursions In the face of ownership of nearly 9,000,000 passenger autos by residents of fourteen mid-western states, the roads of that section this summer revived the old fashioned railroad excursion on a big scale for the first time since the World War, and with success, Some of the excursions have been run at a loss, some have netted an even break when allowance for employes’ salary, use of equipment, cost of advertising, etc., but in the main Jow rates, itinerary and stays in the inter- esting cities has been so appealing that the excursions have netted a “satisfying” return. The saddest thing about the Saklatvala incident is that with some persons it may make a big leaguer ont of a:busher, World Togies aa | “By co-operation of congress and results of experience, federal recla- mation of waste lands will soon be placed on .a sound, permanent basis,” predicts Dr. Hubert Work,|P@8sing his vacation in a country district met an o! secretary of the interior. In the past much money has been spent unwisely and many delin- quent settlers have repudiated |” their debts to the government for irrigation reclamation work. i Dr, Work says: “Today we have over’ 6,000 farms with no farmers on them; The government has invested about $20,000,000 in reclamation | projects of which $27,000,000 ‘will probably never be collected. We have, worst of all, a disposition on the part of some delinquent settlers, to repudiate their debts regardles of thelr ability to pay.” Dr. Work says that this year his department has adopted a policy in’ the collection of taxes hitherto |t not tried—that of requiring every | « person seeking to postpone payment Hubert Work The result has been a renewal of collections where heretofore no pay- ments had been forthcoming. the deferment of all payment this year, over $300,000 has been collect ed, although many individual pay ments were postponed. On another where the petition stated that n one could pay, irrigatora were given the privilege of meeting the. pay- ment in five installments. When op- position to this proposition de- veloped we seryed notice that water would be turned off. in payments being made by over 2,800 settlers, or 90 per cent. “On another project, where 55 irrigators. had paid nothing for from four to six years, direction to turn off the water unless one year's charges were pald brought payments | from 45 of the irrigators. | “Of course, many private debt are pressing and the price of farm | produce has for several years failed | to give the settlers the desired | amount of working capital. I have | felt sympathbtic with all such con- ditions and have recommended help- | ful legislation and woe have prac- | ticed helpful administration. I have | advised reductions in the Interest | rates which congress enacted and the deferring of payments by worthy but temporarily insolvent settlers. We might even try to plan payments so that local creditors can be | assisted.” } ——— Soldiers of Fortune The secretary of state appears to have “thrown a dud” in his warn- | ing to the American flyers enlisted | in army service in Morocco, It is far from plain how the secretary | can proceed to justify this attitude. The American flyers have defied asked the clergyman, Darish,” was the enswer. to chureh, and it was called “I to give the reason for the request. | I'v« the afterdeck of her yacht.

Entirely aside from consideration of the fact that the recall of the flyers possibly might now be regard- ed by France as a deliberately un- friendly action, and tantamount to a récognition of Abd-el-Krim as a lawful beHigerent, the proposition may be regarded in a broader aspect. From time immemorial daring and restless spirits have flocked to the high fields of adventure. ‘This has been true of every war in which America has been engaged; it was | true in. the recent Great War in| Europe. The soldier of fortune is an institution, always heretofor+ universally recognized as within his rights in seeking service under foreign flag, provided, of course, that he did not run afoul of specific inhibitory laws, The Irish, for instance, have | fought tn the armies of every land and clime for generations and hav: been welcomed.

It has been recognized for centuries that the sons of derring-do are within their rights in following the battle flags where they will. The men now bombing the savage invaders of Morocco did not enlist in American jurisdiction. Nothing that the secretary of state has proposed in his warning convincingly sug gests that they have violated any national authority or have tran- scended any custom of international polity, * The Dreamers By Theodosia Garrison. | The gypsies passed her little gate She stopped her wheel to see,— A brown-faced pair who walked the | road, | Free as the wind ts free; | And suddenly her tidy room | A prison seemed to be.’ | Her shining plates against the walls, | walls, | Her sunlit, sanded floor, The brase-bound wedding chest that held Her linen’s snowy store, The very whee] , whose humming died,— Seemed only chaing she bore, She Watched the {oot-free gypsies pass; She never knew or guessed The wistful dream that drew therm close The longing in ench breast Some day to own a home like hers, Wherein their hearts might rest. ——___—.

The reason lies in olive and palm oils, but not in any ordinary blend. Olive and palm oils have tor ages held supreme place as cosmetics. But no one dreamed what they could do until Palmolive Soap was created. This was a unique production, based on 60 years of soap study, The result of modern scientific study of the skin. _ ; Palmolive has become, on this account, the leading toilet soap of the world. Now it is made in five countries, to meet the world-wide demand. It is made in France, the home of fine cosmetics, because French women find it gives them the results they seek. Old “olive and palm” soaps—even real castile—have been largely replaced by Palmolive. Now, after all this, let no one convince you that any “olive and palm” soap is much like it. Some are very ordinary indeed, with artificial color. Some are even super-fatted. ’ They will cleanse, of course. But ages have proved that they never do what Palmolive does for complexions. Note the unnatural “too green” color of Palmolive imitators. What does that suggest? Men don’t paint nature to improve it. Olive and palm oils——nothing else give Palmolive its delicate, natural color. Olive and palm oils——no other fats whatsoever——are used in Palmolive. blending. And that is judged one of the world’s priceless beauty secrets. Palmolive is not the only great complexion soap. We know of two that fairly com- pare, but they cost 25 cents. Palmolive costs 10 cents, due to enormous production, If you seek a healthful skin, there is only that choice — a costly soap or Palmolive. Mere so-called ‘olive and palm” soaps cannot bring it. Let no one mislead you on this point, for any selfish purpose. Wash, launder, cleanse with any soap you wish. But when beauty is at stake — take care. Use Palmolive, nature’s formula to “Keep That Schoolgirl Complexion,” \ No “super-fatting,” no “super-anything” — the only secret to Palmolive is its For Germs 7 Soaps to “destroy” germs should be used only by advice of a physician. All soaps “remove’ germs to a certain degree. No soap safe for toilet use will “remove” germs any better than Palmolive. The real difference in soaps is in their action on your skin. Some are too harsh, others crudely blended. Palmolive Soap is a unique creation, a blend of rare cos- metic oils; a soap made for one purpose only, to foster good complexions. Don’t expect Palmolive complexion results from any strong “medicated” soap, from any “jack-of-all-trades” soap, from any soap claiming alike for fabric washing and the skin. Note carefully the name and wrapper. Palmolive is never sold unwrapped. KK
