He stopped the blind man who seemed uncertain just where he was. “You are near the Post Offide,” said the man who could see, “Ah, I thought so,” replied the blind man with a smile. “Would you mind heiping me across the street?"” The horns &f several automobiles gounded as they crossed. “Bad place, here,” said the man who thought he | was not blind. “Lots of cars at ths | corner. Now go straight ahead and turn to the left about fifty yards on. . That wlii take you toward Walnut Hill Park.” “Yes, I know,” smiled the blind man.

Everything studied 50 in book association and mastered develops the mind that it is better able to apply sound principles of life to daily association. If the study of hooks is accompanied by the study of faces and hearts, the books become more understandable, the faces more enlightening. A won- derful opportunity is again presented to those returning to school, both to and teachers. It is an many older men and women they might have again and the greater their learning and intelligence, the more earnest that longing. to which wish students opportunity THE MEAT WE EAT. People think more or less about the purity of the water and milk they drink—and people are drinking a great dea! water and milk these days. Those going on vacation camp- ing trips are warned to see that the springs or wells they patronize are uncontaminated, and ‘‘pure milk" campaigns are conducted. Frequently cities' water supplies are the subject examination, condensed milk plants are strict about the feeding of the cows that furnish milk to them But little thought given the health of animals of of discussion and and there is comparatively people eat, by the people who eat the For this reason the remarks of the president of the American Vet- Medical Association at the association's annual convention in St. Louis, are timely. He asserts that preservation of the health of animals in indispensable to the health of the nation, and well may he be believed. In the development of the veterinary may be seen another step in science which should be joined with the ad- vance made in the preventlon and cure of diseases of the human body, all going toward prolonging and mak- ing more powerful the life of the human being.

THE GERMAN MARK. The German mark was quoted at 6,450 to the pound the first of this week, as against 7,500 Saturday, Long ago it was seen that England was bending every effort to bring a situation that would aid Germany. As discussion after discussion came, England's stand re- mained unchanged. Discouragement seemed to have no power with her. France's attitude grew firm and then more firm. And all the time people in this country sympathized with g0 back te their | did not blame her at all-—yet Amer- fcan bankers hoped there would come regarding reparations that would give some hope for Ger- | many industrially. Sull England re- | fuged to throw up her hands, The wants one reparations settle- a settlement [latest news 1s that she | attempt at ment made, There is no reparations settlement news; there is no news in regard to reparations that is encouraging to Germany—no news that has been given to the public. And yet that somewhere there is news, to be re- leased sometime, {8 indicated by the that, early this week, the Ger- man mark began to recover, This is no prophecy of a financ¢lal expert, It s the noting of a significant fact. Something had been sald about Eng- lish bulldog tenacity. Few people in the world would be sorry to see the German mark recover still more. more fact Facts and Fancies (BY ROBERT QUILLEN). A genuine reactionary i{s one who thinks the love of liberty the root of all evil. Russia needn't be so boastful of her Red guards. Other countries have blackguards. If the one big union idea works, we might try it on the more or less United States, A free country Is one in wh'th a man thinks himself a martyr wken arrested for breaking a law. History repeats itself; and as we remember it the pioneers were vexed by savage red men, also. A man never realizes how little confidence he has in boys until his daughter gets into her 'teens. The early bird a'so zets some re- markably intimate views of people on sleeping porches. The dove won't build in the can- non's mouth until something s pro- vided to fill the other mouths. At any rate an unpopular law can't be enforced while 1t is violated by those with whom it i3 popular. The money to care for disabled soi- diers may be appropriated in time to build them a beautiful monument. Look up an old chap in Bradstreet's and you will know whether he is piay- ing golf or pitching horse shoes.

Just when we are willing to coi.- cede that women have real intelll- gence, unother of them marries that k'nd of marn. Mud baths may be good for the skin, as that doctor says, but a poli- tician's hide is so thick that mud- slinging doesn't affect him much. The world may forgive Germany in the course of time if it isn't forced to forgive her now as a matter of ex- pediency.
